Özet:

The terms “secret area”, “private area”, “privacy”, and “privacy of personal space” used in legal nomenclature to define an area in which a person does not want to share with others. This reality also indicates that inner life of person is experienced in the human inner world. The person who owns that inner world determines the amount of knowledge to be known by others and the others would have access to only the information made public by the person himself or herself.

The law also regulates violation of privacy and privacy of communication, protection of personal data, and the right of compliments against of the violations.

Moreover, there are a wealth of theoretical information and an elevated number of solid cases for the subject in the fiqh. In this study a comprehensive comparison of definitions, extents, legal status, system and case conclusions of privacy in Turkish Punishment Laws and Islamic Law
