Riba as process: An ethnographic reading of the 1548 Ottoman decree on cash waqfs
(İstanbul Sabahattin Zaim Üniversitesi, 2025) Kabaoğlu, Şeyma; İslami İlimler Fakültesi, Temel İslam Bilimleri Bölümü
This article offers an ethnographic reading of Sultan Süleyman’s 1548 decree that lifted the ban on cash waqfs, an Ottoman innovation that allowed individuals to endow money and, through lending, generate returns for charity. Cash waqfs and the controversies surrounding them have become increasingly relevant, as contemporary debates on Islamic banking continue to revolve around the implications of the riba prohibition. Building on this tradition, the article reconsiders the Ottoman case to argue that riba is best approached not as a fixed outcome, whether “interest” or “usury,” but as a collective and embodied process of interpretation and negotiation. Drawing on the decree’s formulation for navigating “the scent of riba” (riba rayihası), the article frames riba prohibition as a process to be managed through ritualized everyday practice rather than calculated into a numerical outcome. An emic approach to riba highlights the ways Ottoman actors engaged with the prohibition, challenging earlier scholarship that collapsed a rich spectrum of financial categories into the single notion of “interest.” The processual approach to riba offered here reframes what is today called “shariah governance,” connecting cash waqfs to modern banking, not necessarily through institutions or law, but through the cultural categories that once animated them.
Optimizing renewable energy investments using artificial intelligence-based multi-facet fuzzy decision models
(Springer Nature, 2026) Dinçer, Hasan; Yüksel, Serhat; Aksoy, Tamer; Hacıoğlu, Ümit; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü
Improving the performance of renewable energy projects is significant in the global energy transformation process. However, there is no consensus in the literature on which technical indicators are more determinant in these projects, making it difficult for investors and policy makers to make accurate and reliable decisions. To address this research gap, this study aims to optimize renewable energy investment strategies by identifying technical indicators as performance improvement criteria. The novelty of this study lies in the development of an integrated artificial intelligence–based decisionmaking framework that simultaneously incorporates parameter-driven artificial expert evaluations, dynamic multi-facet fuzzy sets, fuzzy cognitive maps, and principal component ranking optimization. Unlike existing studies, the proposed approach enables dynamic scenario-based adjustment of fuzzy membership parameters, allowing uncertainty to be modeled more realistically under negative, positive, unstable, and natural conditions. This integrated structure provides a more adaptive and data-driven prioritization of technical indicators compared to conventional fuzzy or multi-criteria models. The findings reveal that scalability and ease of maintenance are the most critical factors for enhancing technical performance in renewable energy projects. Accordingly, focusing on easy-toservice microgrids and maximizing lifecycle performance emerge as the most effective investment strategies.
Learning from the war: The impact of Crusades on cultural exchange
(Kitap Dünyası Yayınları, 2025) Uzunoğlu Saçmalı, Feyza; İslami İlimler Fakültesi, Temel İslam Bilimleri Bölümü
The Crusades have long been etched into the Western historical consciousness as a quintessential "clash of civilizations," a series of religious wars defined by intractable conflict between a monolithic Christendom and Islam. This narrative, however, is a historiographical construct that obscures a far more complex and transformative reality. For centuries, the story was one of military epic, focusing on the clash of arms and the rhetoric of holy war. However, over the past few decades, a profound shift has occurred in Crusader studies, compelling scholars to reevaluate the very essence of these campaigns…
Küreselleşme çağında İslam bilim geleneği
(Beytü’l-Hikme İslam Düşüncesi Enstitüsü, 2026) Açıkgenç, Alparslan; İnsan ve Toplum Bilimleri Fakültesi, Felsefe Bölümü
Küreselleşme sadece günümüzün bir gerçeği değil aynı zamanda insan mahiyetinin önemli bir unsurudur. Küreselliğin insan mahiyetinin bir unsuru olmasından kastettiğimiz şudur ki, insanlarda devamlı başka çevrelere açılma hasreti vardır. Tarih bunun örnekleri ile doludur. Örnek verecek olursak insanlığın ilk dönemlerden beri birçok toplum bulunduğu yeri terk ederek yeryüzünde başka yerleri keşfetmeye ve daha çok arzuladıkları bir bölgeyi buluncaya kadar dolaşıp durmuşlar ve sürekli yeni keşifler yapmışlardır. Bunun dışında Cengiz Han gibi geniş topraklara sahip olma arzusu insan fıtratındaki öteleri keşfetme hasretini bir ölçüde yansıtmaktadır. Şüphesiz ki, Orta Asya’dan göç eden Türk kabilelerinin birkaç yüzyılı kapsayan ve Avrasya tarihinin büyük bir kısmını yeniden şekillendiren bir dizi önemli hareketlerin tarihi de bunun güzel bir örneğidir. Erken göçler bu bölgeden yaklaşık 4. - 6. Yüzyıllar arasında gerçekleşmiştir. Bilinen en eski Türk kabileleri, Orta Asya bozkırlarında, özellikle günümüz Moğolistan, Kazakistan ve Sibirya yakınlarındaki Altay Dağları çevresinde ortaya çıkmıştır. Göktürk İmparatorluğu (552-744), organize Türk yayılmasının başlangıcını işaret eden ilk büyük Türk imparatorluklarından biridir. Bu dönemde, Türkçe konuşan halklar batıya doğru yayılmaya başlamış ve Orta Asya steple- rinde önemli bir varlık göstermiştir. Yine 8. - 9. Yüzyıllardaki Uygur göçü güzel bir örnek teşkil etmektedir. 8. yüzyılda, Türk kabilesi olan Uygurlar, Göktürk Kağanlığının çöküşünün ardından batıya doğru göç ettiler. Sonunda Moğolistan bölgesine yerleştiler ve daha sonra Doğu Türkistan’a (günümüz Çin’in Sincan bölgesi) taşındılar...
Reusable instruments for active learning-oriented online faculty development: Design frameworks, inventories and protocols
(İlyas GÖRGÜT, 2026) Bulut, Mehmet Akın; Eğitim Bilimleri Fakültesi, Rehberlik ve Psikolojik Danışmanlık Bölümü
Active learning is widely promoted in higher education, yet research and practice often suffer from limited transparency regarding the instruments used to design, implement, and evaluate active learning–oriented faculty professional development (PD). While many studies report positive outcomes, fewer provide sufficiently detailed descriptions of the pedagogical frameworks, inventories, lesson planning tools, and data collection instruments that enable replication or adaptation across contexts. This article addresses this gap by presenting a coherent set of research and design instruments developed and applied within a doctoral study and an associated qualitative case study of an asynchronous, microlearning-based faculty PD program. Grounded in constructivism and operationalized through Fink’s Active Learning Design model, the instrument set includes: (a) Fink’s active learning lesson plan flow and rubric (2003), (b) a low–moderate–high complexity Active Learning Inventory by van Amburgh (2007), (c) a microlearning-oriented MOOC design framework, (d) an online community of practice (CoP) design, and (e) semi-structured interview, observation, and reflection protocols adapted from evidence-based studies. Rather than reporting empirical findings, this paper documents the structure, purpose, and application logic of each instrument to support reuse, adaptation, and conceptual transfer by other researchers and instructional designers.
