Hadith Culture in the Works of Mawlana Jalaladdin al-Rumi

Journal Title: Marife Dini Araştırmalar Dergisi - Year 2015, Vol 15, Issue 2

Abstract

Qur’anic verses and hadiths, feeding the spiritual life of Muslims, are also the base reference of Islamic sciences. Especially the authenticity of the hadiths that support these sciences has a great importance since they affect the quality of Islamic knowledge and daily experience of Islam. Consequently, after the borders of Islamic sciences established, the authenticity of the hadith quoted by these sciences as evidence became subject to debate. Tasawwuf (Islamic Mysticism) is a science that mainly relates to the spiritual life of Muslims. Its first core emerged shortly after the death of the Prophet (pbuh) and became systematic by time. There is no doubt that Tasawwuf commonly refers to hadiths. Although one of the most criticized sciences for its occasional use of hadith, this science has also been subject to unfair criticism. This article tries to determine the use of hadith in the works of Mawlana Jalaladdin al-Rumi, a 13th century Saldjuki Anatolian mystic who is today one of the first names that come to mind when Tasawwuf is mentioned.
