Notes
This study examines the historical development of mosques in Islamic civilization and the social functions of these institutions. The research focuses especially on the foundation records of Lâleli Mosque and Social Complex, one of the sultan's mosques that was built in an important period of the Ottoman Empire and reflects the architectural richness of the empire. In Islamic history, mosques have undertaken important functions not only as places of worship but also as education, culture and social service centers, and their architectural features and institutional structures have developed and changed over time. Within the scope of the research, the books in the archives of the General Directorate of Foundations were examined and the services carried out in Lâleli Mosque and its surroundings were analyzed in detail. These services are discussed in two main categories: material and spiritual. Material services include cleaning, lighting, maintenance and interior arrangement of the mosque; Spiritual services include religious and educational activities such as preaching, guidance, teaching, imamate, muezzin and prayer. By comparing the data obtained from the foundation records with the historical functions of the mosques, the continuity and transformation of the social roles of these institutions were examined. The findings of the study reveal that types of services such as worship, prayer and education were continued in the sultan's mosques from the Seljuk period to the Ottoman period and until today. However, it has been observed that there have been significant changes in the qualification requirements of mosque officials over time. While the qualifications sought for these officials in Islamic primary sources are generally knowledge and piety, the term "scholars and scholars from suleha" is used more specifically in the Lâleli Mosque foundation charter. Nowadays, more technical and documented qualifications such as knowledge of ashere, takrib and tayyibe, or being a hafiz-tashih-i huruf graduate or having a specialization course certificate are sought in officers. The research also reveals that although it is not considered appropriate for muezzins to receive wages in the hadith sources, in the foundation deed of Lâleli Mosque, muezzins were also allocated wages along with other mosque officials. As a result, the endowment certificate review shows that Lâleli Mosque offers a more comprehensive service in terms of prayer and educational activities and a higher level of service in terms of attendant qualifications than the mosques currently classified as Group A. These findings provide important data in terms of understanding the role of Ottoman period mosque foundations in the development of Islamic culture and civilization and the historical roots of today's mosque services.
