Authors:Nuray YILTER Abstract: Situations such as cooling, exhaustion, pretentiousness, and birth can be observed in societies since the first human. It is seen that the features of the community, which emerged in different structures in some periods and are basically objects, reveal that this situation community was exposed to temporary or radical changes. Unlike the individual residence where the society lives, it reveals a new social structure by using the influence of large masses. Individualized people in a society of fatigue are at their highest attrition from becoming the subject of performance. Beings with motivation aiming at everything started to ignore their mental states by constantly being in the wheel of production and operation. Psychological disorders are not treated with the same method as physical ailments. It provides solutions and correct progress based on the teachings and principles of religions, these phenomena that affect the universal differences of people. The aim of the study, based on the concept of "fatigue society", its projections in the Qur'an are a) consumed by excessive consumption, b) consuming by social standardization, c) consuming due to lack of response d) consuming by excessive secularization and e) accumulating goods. They are extensions of the shell that come with (career) passion. In the postmodern period, when communication and consumption accelerated, it is seen that studies on the subject started. In this world, the existence of the consumer society in the Qur'an has been tried to be followed through the verses. PubDate: Thu, 15 Jun 2023 00:00:00 +030
Authors:Melek Feyza ZORLU Abstract: Individuals who live in a community develop sociality through communicating. The effective execution of both bilateral and mass communication facilitates the development of sociability. Mass communication has a broader impact compared to bilateral communication and is characterized by a unidirectional process. Many theories have been developed on mass communication, which has the capacity to rapidly deliver the intended message to vast groups. The Spiral of Silence Theory by Elisabeth Noelle Neumann is one of these. Spiral of Silence is a theory that has been tested by its developer and is closely tied to the idea of public opinion. It states that individuals who are in the minority relative to a vast mass are unable to speak up for a variety of reasons and choose to remain in the shadow of the crowd. Spiral of Silence theory has been analyzed in this study by drawing parallels to various ayat and stories in the Qur'an. The aim of the study is to argue that the four main factors that are stated to cause the Spiral of Silence may have their equivalents in the Qur'an.In accordance with the stated objective, the Spiral of Silence theory was first examined, and then a) the threat of exclusion from society, b) the fear of exclusion from society, c) the desire to freely express one's opinion, and d) conforming to the general opinion, which are among the reasons for silence, were explained and discussed in light of Qur'anic ayat. In conclusion, based on the determination that the Qur'an gives freedom to people in terms of opinion and belief and that he does not always see the crowd as justified, it has been understood that the social siege, which is claimed to cause the spiral of silence, can be overcome by the individual.

Then, modern and postmodern theories neclect human spiritual traits like nafs, soul, mind will and sevitude aspect. Its aim is to evaluate the individual analyses of psychoanalysis and schizoanalysis and to question the nature of man again with a more holistic understanding based on the definition of the self in Islām.

Authors:Mustafa ÇAKIR Abstract: Radicalization is the process by which an individual or a group of individuals adopts radical or extremist ideas and becomes willing to act in line with these ideas. Radicalization tendencies can be influenced by various factors such as the lack of fair and livable conditions, historical traumas, regional conflicts, and the inability to achieve a national transformation. In addition, factors such as the inability to reach the advanced and progressive Western world can encourage individuals to seek more radical solutions. Alevi radicalization, especially in the context of Alevi rebellion culture, means an intense concentration and excessive adoption of political or ideological beliefs. Alevism emerges as a syncretic type of Islam that combines elements of Ahl-i beyt-based Islam, Sufism and Turkish folk beliefs.Historically, Alevi communities in Turkey have claimed to face discrimination and persecution, and some political events have been interpreted as contributing to this. Therefore, Alevi political experiences have also been shaped in this context. Alevi discrimination and threat perceptions can lead to radicalization, and Alevi youth continue to embrace an extreme left identity.In recent years, the struggle of Alevi culture to exist more frequently in public spaces with different ideologies, beliefs, and lifestyles seems to fuel the culture of radicalization. In this sense, the sense of victimization and radicalization are intertwined concepts. The fear of victimization can trigger alienation from collective living and lead individuals towards extremism, which is as important as radicalization itself. Therefore, examining the events perceived by Alevi communities as victimization is important to understand and prevent radicalization. In this context, the aim of the study is to examine the effect of the rebellion culture in Alevism on radicalization. Within the scope of the topic, the impact of various problems experienced by Alevi communities throughout history on the process of radicalization in the context of a) the sense of victimization, b) political grievances/complaints, c) group-based extreme loyalty in the context of isolation/threat perception is intended to be explained. The study was conducted using a macro-method and indirect observation technique. PubDate: Thu, 15 Jun 2023 00:00:00 +030

Authors:Melike TAŞDEMİR Abstract: Migration is a historical phenomenon that involves the interaction of different societies with each other. The ability of societies to coexist peacefully is crucial for the positive outcomes of these interactions. The concept of acculturation examines the changes that occur in the process of achieving coexistence among societies. Acculturation is a key factor in the successful adaptation of societies to each other. In this article, we explore the acculturation strategies in the context of migration events in the Holy Qur’an. The aim of the article is to analyze how assimilation, separation, integration and marginalization, which are the main acculturation strategies, are reflected in the Qur’an. In this study, we first review the acculturation strategies proposed by Berry, then we discuss the Qur’anic approach to the concept of migration and finally we evaluate the acculturation strategies in light of the verses. As a result, we find that the Qur’an emphasizes the preservation of culture and religion and shapes its perspective on strategies according to the goal of ensuring social harmony.
