Notes	In modern Arabic, Turkish and English studies on Islamic moral thought, morality (al-aḫlāḳ, ethics); It is used as a parent term covering all literature in theoretical, practical, analytical, normative and similar approaches, including adab, mysticism, philosophy and theology, and this usage is generally accepted. However, in these studies, the exact answer to what morality includes and excludes in Islamic thought and, rather, by what principles it is determined, has not been found. In this article, we question the generally accepted literature classifications in the field of Islamic moral thought and propose a classification. We discussed the literature covering the period from the beginning to the 19th century. This article ultimately questions the scope of the literature and emphasizes the need to conduct studies on Islamic moral thought from a broader perspective. In modern Arabic, Turkish and English studies on Islamic ethical thought, ethics (al-akhlāq) is used as an umbrella term covering all literature in theoretical, practical, analytical, normative, and similar approaches, including ādāb, sufism, philosophy, and theology. This usage has been commonly held. However, these studies do not properly explain what is or is not the scope of ethics, above all, according to which criteria the scope of ethics are determined. This essay challenges the generally accepted classifications of the literature in Islamic ethical thought and suggests another classification of that literature. Based on certain reasons, we have handled the literature in a way that covers the period from the beginning to the 19th century. This article ultimately questions the scope of the literature and highlights the need to conduct studies on Islamic ethical thought from a broader perspective.
