Kadizadeli
Kadızadelis (also ''Qādīzādali'') were a seventeenth-century puritanical reformist religious movement in the Ottoman Empire who followed Kadızade Mehmed (1582-1635), a revivalist Islamic preacher. Kadızade and his followers were determined rivals of Sufism and Folk_religion#Folk_Islam, popular religion. They condemned many of the Ottoman practices that Kadızade felt were bidʻah "non-Islamic innovations", and passionately supported "reviving the beliefs and practices of the first Muslim generation in the first/seventh century" ("enjoining good and forbidding wrong"). Driven by zealous and fiery rhetoric, Kadızade Mehmed was able to inspire many followers to join in his cause and rid themselves of any and all corruption found inside of the Ottoman Empire. Leaders of the movement held official positions as preachers in the major mosques of Baghdad, and "combined popular followings with support from within the Ottoman state apparatus". Between 1630 and 1680 there ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Kadızade Mehmed
Kadızade Mehmed Efendi, aka Küçük (Little) Kadızade or Kadızadeli (1582 Balıkesir Province, Ottoman Empire - 1635) was an Islamic preacher in the Ottoman Empire. Those who accepted his ideas called themselves ''Kadizadeli, Kadızadeliler'' ("those for Kadızade"). The Kadızadelis were acting politically by influencing people. Those preachers that were addressing to the people could criticise the state as they wish and could cause a rebellion. One of the first and exceptional leader of the Kadızade was Kadızade Mehmed Efendi. When he was young, he tried to enroll to a tariqa, but as he found out that he objected to their thinking, he decided to become a preacher. As his rhetoric was strong, he became famous in a short time and was designated to the Hagia Sophia, Hagia Sophia Mosque as a preacher in 1631, where he pointed to disorders in state affairs. He told that all of these disorders were the result of acting against Sharia. He moved the public against sects that he dec ...

Enjoining Good And Forbidding Wrong
Enjoining (what is) right and forbidding (what is) evil ( ar, ٱلْأَمْرْ بِٱلْمَعْرُوفْ وَٱلنَّهْيْ عَنِ ٱلْمُنْكَرْ, al-amr bi-l-maʿrūf wa-n-nahy ʿani-l-munkar) are two important duties imposed by God in Islam, as revealed in the Quran and hadith. When these verses are etymologically and literally translated, they do not actually mean "commanding good and forbidding evil". Maruf means known, familiar and the purpose of use in 30 verses is to express custom. Munkar, on the other hand, is derived from the word nekre, meaning obscure, singular or strange and is probably the same as what is expressed today as bid'ah (non-tradition, strange, new inventions, religious practices not included in the sunnah). In the act of enjoining the good and forbidding the evil, the terms used in the discussions of theology, morality and jurisprudence regarding the nature of goodness and evil, what is considered good and what is bad, are "Husn and Kub ...
