Özet:

As it is a widely known reality that in his poetic work Safahat, Mehmed Akif searches for solutions to social problems by means of Kuranic verses, hadiths and actions the people in the close circle of Prophet Muhammed. This article deals with determining the origins of the Hadiths and their explanations as they occur in the poems At the Fatih Pulpit and Asım, which this article is concerned with. References to 8 hadiths in these poems point that Mehmed Akif knew well not only about hadiths and the sunna (Prophet’s traditions) but also about the lives of the people in the close circle of Prophet. It is observed that Mehmet Akif was very careful on the soundness of the hadiths and has negative feelings towards those hadiths origins of which were suspicious. However, it has been established that he used certain hadiths without searching for their soundness. Yet, this should be taken as minor mistakes and situations occurred inadvertently o his part.
