Özet:

Dār al-Qur'āns, which were among the madrasas in the Ottoman period and where qirāʿāt was taught, turned into the Qur'āns schools after the law on unity of education, enacted on March 3, 1924. That was the end of the institutional entity of qirāʿāt education in Turkey. Afterwards, a number of qirāʿāt teachers kept performing this education by their individual efforts. Among these teachers, Osman Nuri Taşkent who was the former head-imam of Nuruosmaniye Mosque in Istanbul was assigned as a Qur'ān teacher in Adapazari in 1936. This research aiming to address Taskent’s service as a public servant, his educational activities, and his role in the re-institutionalization of the qirāʿāt education is planned as a qualitative case study and carried out by document analysis and interview techniques. In conclusion, this study has demonstrated that (a) this school which aimed to be offered in Adapazari was planned as qirāʿāt education school, (b) Taşkent was the responsible official teacher (c) 14 students graduated under his mentorship in Adapazari, and (d) this institution was named as Dār al-Ḥuffāz of Adapazari in his period. Moreover, it shows that after the leaving of Tashkent, this schoolined the education under the responsibility of Himmet Babalıoğlu who is one of the former students; however, the type of education changed and turned into a general Qur'āns chool.
