Abstract:

 In this study, the works of Abdülhamid el Katip and Abdullah ibnul-Mukaffa, who are considered to be the authors of the first political treatise of policy, have been discussed. The thoughts of the authors about the source of legitimacy of political power are discussed. The aim of the study is to reveal the approaches of both authors about political legitimacy. The importance of the study stems from the change experienced by the Islamic perspective. The transition from the caliphate system based on social consent to the dynastic rule also affected the political literature and the influence of the ulama on the ruling power changed. In the study, an evaluation was made on the Turkish translation works of two authors related to politics. The study reflects the political legitimacy approach in the last period of the Umayyads and the first period of the Abbasids. As a result of the researches, it was seen that both authors reflected the dominant political attitude of the period instead of the Islamic approach on political legitimacy.

 Bu çalışmada ilk siyasetname müellifleri sayılan Abdülhamid el Katip ve Abdullah ibnul-Mukaffanın eserleri ele alınmıştır. Müelliflerin siyasal iktidarın meşruluk kaynağına dair düşünceleri ele alınmıştır. Çalışmanın amacı her iki müellifin siyasal meşruluk ile ilgili yaklaşımlarını ortaya koymaktır. Çalışmanın önemi siyasal meşrulukta İslami bakışın yaşadığı değişimden gelmektedir. Toplumsal rızaya dayalı hilafet sisteminden hanedan yönetimine geçiş siyasal yazını da etkilemiş ve ulemanın yönetici erk üzerindeki etkisi değişime uğramıştır. Çalışmada iki müellifin Türkçeye tercüme edilen siyasete ilişkin eserleri üzerinden değerlendirme yapılmıştır. Çalışma Emevilerin son dönemi ile Abbasilerin ilk dönemindeki siyasal meşruluk yaklaşımını yansıtmaktadır. Yapılan araştırmalar sonucunda her iki müellifin de siyasal meşruluk konusunda, İslami yaklaşım yerine dönemin egemen siyasal tutumunu yansıttığı görülmüştür.
