Abstract:

Man is a thinking being. For this reason, the act of thinking is the most effective factor in the formation of the economic, political and religious understanding of all societies from the beginning of human history to the present. Many important events occurred in the formation of Islamic thought, on which the Prophet Mu-hammad formed the basis. In addition to the hadiths mentioned in the Qur'an and hadiths, which are the most basic sources of Islamic History, many important events are mentioned in the narrations in other Islamic historical sources. It is seen that the issues mentioned in the sources led to conflict especially with the death of the Prophet Muhammad, to quarrel in the last periods of the Osman period, and to separation and division with the Ali period. The events that took place during the Umayyad period (especially the Yazid period), which is one of the breaking points of Islamic history, have deeply affected the Islamic mentality, and the conflicts and wars have caused great damage to the spirit of unity and solidarity among Muslims. In this study, in accordance with the subject and purpose of the symposium, The Harra Incident (63/683), which oc-curred during the reign of Yazid, who took office as the 2nd Umayyad caliph, and which caused deep wounds in the thought and mental world of Muslims for many years, will be discussed. The Harra Incident, which is called a struggle for rights by some and a movement of rebellion by others, is one of the saddest events affec-ting the Islamic mentality. As someone who has studies on the history of Medina, it is necessary to carefully consider the causes and consequences of the sad picture of this clean and enlightened city that the Prophet converted from Yathrib to Medina and inherited the Muslims. This situation is very important in terms of better understanding the foundations of today's Islamic mentality.
