Özet:

As a result of the regression experienced in the last period of the Ottoman Empire, reforms and approaches in every field came to the fore. These renovation efforts began not only in political and economic terms, but also in the field of science, philosophy and thought. Because science and philosophy that changed in the West, the accusations and the claims towards Islam of the Orientalists and movements of thought that denies the existence of God necessitated renovation, especially in the palm. Since science of kalam were at the center of religious thought, Musa Kazim Efendi, who is one of the last shaykh al-Islam, demanded that books of kalam should be renewed according to the needs of the era. Essentially, the overwhelming majority of scholars and intellectuals reached a consensus almost that the current situation could not be sustained and the pen needed to be renovated. However, Hussein Kâzım Kadri and Besim Atalay strongly opposed the renovation of Kalam in their works. Nevertheless, their opposition is a total objection to pen rather than the renovation of pen. In addition to this, Mustafa Sabri Efendi the shaykh al-Islam, who is claimed to be against the renovation of Kalam, is not an anti-renovation but a proponent. In addition, Mustafa Asim claimed the need for the renovation of the kalam. However, the renovation demands of the last two authors can be regarded as a conservative renovation. In this article, the approaches of the scholars about the renovation of the pen and some claims about them are discussed.
