Özet:

Kutadgu Bilig, one of the important works of the abstract Turkish-Islamic culture and ideas life, is written by Yusuf Has Hacib in order to show the way to be happy in both worlds. Kutadgu Bilig, one of the works that make up the stones of our culture, is a counseling, a political book in terms of its discoveries about the governance of the country, according to the advice it gives to the rulers and governors. The work has sought answers to the question of how a good government and managers should be. Yusuf Has Hacib has given important information about the political, social, and economic issues of the period. In this work, which was written in the time of the Karahanists, Yusuf Has Hacib advised that the king, who sees the state and the people as a trust given to him, fulfills the duty of the ruler while paying attention to issues such as justice, likeness, compassion, mercy, loyalty, courtesy, and counseling. We also in our work, taking reference to Kutadgu Bilig, we have done a study that tells the basic elements of the Turkish state thought (kut, sovereignty, state=il, istiklâl), the characteristics that the ruler (mean) should be, the qualities that the state officials should have, the responsibilities of the brain against the people, how the ideal state administration should be.
