Özet:

Diyā’ al-Dīn Ibn al-Athīr, served as a court clerk one of the important levels of the state. He was also interested in the art of kitābāt, as she was a court clerk. He has written many important works on this subject that complement each other. In his works, he put forward very important ideas about the nature of the art of kitābāt and how it should be performed. Since the kitābāt is a location where all kinds of records are kept, the state stated that the scientific equipment of the people appointed here is important. He stated that the clerks should have knowledge on many subjects, especially the grammar and sarf sciences. He emphasized that it is not enough just to have knowledge, in addition, it is necessary to transform knowledge into a skill. He considered learning grammar science as an important factor in order not to make grammatical mistakes in the art of kitābāt. He said that making use of the verses of the Qur’an, hadiths and poems is the main issue. He stated that it is necessary to memorize the entire Qur’an, hadiths and poems as well as the amount that will be used for the kitābāt. In order to better use the things memorized during the kitābāt, he considered it important to constantly repeat them. By repeating his experiences about the kitābāt, he shows practically what kind of way and method should be followed by those who will undertake this task. He stated that in order for the proverbs to be used in the art of kitābāt to be used in the right places, the reasons for their emergence should be well known. He said that knowing the literary literature left by previous poets and writers in the fields of poetry and prose has many benefits in terms of kitābāt. This study has been tried to be built around Ibn al-Athīr’s thoughts and opinions about clerk and kitābāt. One of the main objectives of the study is to determine what the basic qualities of the clerk and kitābāt might be. For this purpose, the documentation method, one of the qualitative research methods, was used.
