Özet:

Sulayman Nahīfī (d. 1151/1738) who known as translator of Mathnawī in our history of literature, worked in various governmental positions (janissary, ambassador secretary, etc.) during his life of July ninety years. He also wrote many works both in verse and prose. Although many articles have been written about the life, art and works of Nahīfī, there is no study about his work called Mubāhathe-i Ķadā and Ķader -except for an amateur publication- which is written in verse. In this respect, the work deserves to be studied. Another point that makes it important to come to light is that it reflects the codes of thought of its period. Being written in verse and coinciding with the last periods of the Ottoman Empire increases the importance of this work. On the other hand, it is a fact that Asharī thought is dominant among the Ottoman scholars who are seen as a natural continuation of Māturīdī tradition. In this respect, it can be said that Nahīfī is a continuation of the few Māturīdī scholars such as Ibn al-Humām (d. 861/1457), Fast Bay (d. 863/1459) and Tashkoprīzāde (d. 968/1561). The author's criticism of Jeddah and Jeddah members is also remarkable related to the subject matter.
