Özet:

Mehmet Fuat Sezgin, who we lost on the last day of June 2018, is a distinguished scholar and person for our country both in terms of the history of Islamic Science and World Science. He has striven for transferring his experience and knowledge to whole Turkey especially in the last years of his life. Shortly after Sezgin's death, 2019 was accepted as Professor Fuat Sezgin Year. With both his death and the year 2019 which was attributed to him, it will be important to increase the awareness of this talent who is not well known in our country, especially for the younger generations even if it is late. Since the year 2019 has been attributed to him, many scientific activities have been conducted and planned. Within this framework, it will be appropriate to study Sezgin's biography, which is also an academic role model, by different people. Because Sezgin is a much more recognized scientist in the world when compared to Turkey. The life of Sezgin, who has been an expert in the history of science, extends from Bitlis to Frankfurt.  As it is mentioned in the title, Sezgin is a scientist who has devoted his life to science. There is little information about nuclear family life in Sezgin's biographies because he has already devoted 17 hours a day to study. In this study, family, education and academic life of Sezgin are examined in the historical order and important contributions of Sezgin to the world of science are mentioned. Also his features which have led him to success, his advices, his recent works which he has brought to Turkey and the ongoing lawsuit between Germany and him are explained.
