Abstract:

In the Ottoman Empire, the court records are a very important source of information not only in terms of legal, but also in terms of the social, political, economic and cultural status of the state. There are four kinds of cities in which it is called Istanbul (Istanbul) and it is called Usküdar, Galata, Eyüp (Istanbul). This study covers the issue of the neighborhood avariz foundations established in the period between 1618-1697 of the Istanbul court statements and the operation of these foundations, as well as the money and property founded with this gaye and who are the borrowers of the funds. In addition to this, they had the same social support to resolve their financial difficulties. In the Ottoman State, in exceptional circumstances, especially during war times, all kinds of services, goods and money received from the people on the order of the king to meet the necessary costs for the trip, the name of the Divanity was given to the Divanity. These taxes have begun to be gathered in intervals and increasing amounts, in the beginning, when they are rarely gathered and in many amounts, while the needs are increasing and the state treasury is becoming unable to meet them. In fact, these taxes have been by the poor people who have difficulty paying or funds allocated as money. These foundations were also performed again through the material power of those who were in the same settlement unit.
