Notes	Until the 19th century, plague and cholera were the main epidemic diseases that caused mass deaths. Like the rest of the world, the Ottoman Empire was greatly affected by these diseases at various periods. In the Ottoman Empire, diseases were overcome by implementing quarantine and complying with general cleaning rules, and medicine and treatment studies in Europe were closely followed. The Ottoman press, which was extremely important for informing both the public and the administrators, gave extensive coverage to epidemic diseases. Although the control of the disease was tried to be achieved through quarantine, it was aimed to carry out the process in a healthier way by attributing religious legitimacy to the quarantine process based on the hadiths. Therefore, the recommendations of modern medicine have been strengthened by religious principles and diseases have been combated with material and spiritual elements. In the late Ottoman period, the religious reference point that constituted the belief culture part of the fight against diseases in the press consisted of hadiths, prayers and narrations. The framework of this study was created by the articles written about diseases in Islamist periodicals, where religious and political issues are discussed together.
