Geleneğimizdeilimlerin tasnif edilmesiyle ilgili pek çok eser kaleme alınmıştır. Bunların arasındaSaçaklızâde’nin Tertîbü’l-‘ulûm adlı eserinin önemli bir yeri vardır. Bueserde ilimlerin tanımları, tahsil sırası, ilimleri tahsil etmenin hükümleri vedönemin eğitim kurumları olan medreselerde takip edilecek eserlerin isimlerigibi hususların yanında, hoca ve talebelere birtakım tavsiyelere de yerverilmiştir. Ahmed Feyzi Çorumî ise el-Müntehab min Tertîbi’l-‘ulûm adlırisalesini, Saçaklızâde’nin eseri olan Tertîbü’l-‘ulûm’dan bazı seçkileryaparak oluşturmuştur. Seçki işlemini genellikle ilimlerin tanımı ve builimleri öğrenmek isteyenlerin okuması gereken kitaplar konusunda yapmıştır. Buseçme işlemini yaparken kimi zaman Saçaklızâde’nin cümlelerini olduğu gibiaktarırken, kimi zaman da farklı yerlerde zikrettiği cümleleri bir arayagetirerek aktarmıştır. Ahmed Feyzi, Saçaklızâde’nin vermiş olduğu malumattanfaydalanmasının yanında bazen Saçaklızâde’nin cümlelerini açıklamış,Saçaklızâde’nin yer vermediği eserleri örnek olarak zikretmiştir. Bazen deSaçaklızâde’nin belirtmiş olduğu kimi eserleri değiştirerek kendisine göre dahauygun olanını tercih etmiştir. Bu çalışmada el-Müntehâb’ın tahkik, tercüme vedeğerlendirmesi yapılarak iki eser arasındaki farklılıklar ortaya konmuştur.Elde edebildiğimiz tek nüsha üzerinden yaptığımız tahkik kısmında, metnin dahaanlaşılır olması için tarafımızca eklenen yerler ve başlıklar köşeli parantezlebelirtilmiş ve bazı dipnotlar eklenmiştir. Anlamın kapalı olduğu bazı noktalardaise Saçaklızâde’nin ifadelerinden yararlanılmış bu işlem dipnotlardaaçıklanmıştır. Değerlendirme noktasında ise Ahmed Feyzi’nin ele aldığı konular,Saçaklızâde’nin eserinde ilgili bölümde yerleri bulunarak karşılaştırmayapılmış, aralarındaki farklar ve benzerliklere dikkat çekilmiştir.

AbstractIn ourtradition a great amount of work have been written on the classification ofsciences. Saçaklızâde’s Tertîbü’l-‘Ulûm has a significant place amongthem. In Tertîbü’l-‘Ulûm, information on the definitions of thesciences, the order of studying these sciences and the verdicts on studyingthem is given. Additionally, the names of the suggested literature to be readin the madrasas, the educational institutions of the period, and somesuggestions are also given to the teachers and students. Ahmed Feyzi Çorumî’s work,al-Müntehab min Tertîbi'l-‘Ulûm, is based on some selections from Tertîbu'l-‘Ulûm.The selections are mainly on the definition of sciences and the suggested literaturefor those who want to learn these sciences. While making this selection, sometimeshe conveys the sentences of Saçaklızâde as they are, and sometimes combines thesentences of Saçaklızâde from different parts of his book. In addition to utilisethe information given by Saçaklızâde, Ahmed Feyzi occasionally explains thesentences of Saçaklızâde and refers to some works that Saçaklızâde does notmention as well. Sometimes he disagrees with the literature suggested by Saçaklızâdeand refers to the ones more suitable for him. In thispaper, al-Müntehâb is analyzed, translated and evaluated, and the differencesbetween the two works are revealed. The analysis is done on the only availablecopy of al-Müntehab. The text is made more clear by adding some pieces and headingsthat are indicated in the square brackets and adding some footnotes. When themeaning is unclear, the expressions of Saçaklızâde are consulted, and thissituation is stated in the footnotes.SummaryThe topic of the classification of thesciences has gained the attention of various scholars. A great amount of workswas composed in both Western and Islamic tradition, and many of them hasreached today. One of these works is Tertîbu’l-‘Ulûm. It is written bySaçaklızade Mehmet Efendi of Maraş (d. 1145/1732), an Ottoman Scholar who wroteon various sciences such as Fiqh, Kalam, Logic, Tafseer. This work has animportant place in terms of showing the curriculum of madrasahs, educationalinstitutions of the period. Saçaklızâde’s book consists of five sections; anintroduction, two chapters, one appendix and a conclusion respectively. In theintroduction, the sciences are classified as canonic and non-canonic sciencesand the verdicts on employing in them are given. First chapter gives thedefinition of useful sciences. In the second chapter, the useful sciences aregraded for the students who are going to study them. While a very briefinformation on the praise of Qur’an, its names and its place in Hadith aregiven in the appendix, the writer devotes the conclusion to various topicsrelated to philosophy. Various information such as the definitions of sciences,the order of studying them, the verdict on studying them, the names of worksthat are studied in madrasahs, which are educational institutions in theperiod, are given. In addition to all these, Saçaklızâde mentions the method usedin the madrasahs, criticizes the arrogant behavior and attitudes of thelecturers and states wrong choices that the students make during their study.As well as giving advice to teachers and students for a better education, healso recommends various books for some sciences by drawing attention to theproper literature. Saçaklızâde recommends books for each level by statingbeginner, intermediate and advanced levels for some of the sciences and tellsthat other sciences can be leveled in comparison to them. Ahmed Feyzi Çorumî, who was born after107 years from Saçaklızâde, wrote his risalah, al-Müntehab min Tertîbi’l-‘Ulûm,by selecting some parts from Saçaklızâde’s work. The selections are mainly onthe definition of sciences and the suggested literature for those who want tolearn these sciences. While making this selection, sometimes he conveys thesentences of Saçaklızâde as they are, and sometimes combines the sentences ofSaçaklızâde from different parts of his book. For example, while giving informationon steep oneself in Kalam, he quotes a sentence from 105th page of Saçaklızâde’s book,and also refers  to the the sentencesfrom 215th, 153th, 109th and 214th pages.. This simply shows that Ahmet Fevzidid not write an ordinary summary. While Saçaklızâde classifies the literature forTafseer, Hadith, Fiqh, Kalam, Quran Systems , Rhetoric, Logic, al-Nahw asbeginning (iktisâr), intermediate (iktisâd) and advanced (istiksâ) levels,Ahmed Feyzi makes the same classification for the Methodology of Hadith,Mysticism, Inspiration, Counsel, Reading, Tajwid, the Methodology of Fiqh,Discussion, Anatomy, Medical Science, Inheritance, Mathematics, Prosody, Wad’,Grammar and Etymology sciences as well. In addition to utilize the informationgiven by Saçaklızâde, Ahmed Feyzi sometimes explains the sentences ofSaçaklızâde, and mentions the works that Saçaklızâde did not talk about. Thealteration of the works given as an example, namely, the fact that Ahmet Feyzirecommended different books shows that, the choice of the works used ineducation has changed in the course of the time. The reason for this shiftcould be due to the appearance of more up-to-date works that is moreproper  for the education of the time,and on this basis it can be said that new works shows the change in theeducation culture. For example, unlike Saçaklızâde, Ahmed Feyzi suggests thatHâdimî’s (1176/1762) work should be read in the beginning level of Usulal-Fiqh. Saçaklızâde was very likely did not see this work of Hâdımî, who diedthirty years after him. This clearly shows us that Ahmed Feyzi takes the worksthat were interesting during his time into account.In this study; firstly, a very briefinformation about the lives of Saçaklızâde Mehmed Efendi and Ahmed Feyzi Çorumîis given. Then the work of al-Müntehab min Tertîbi'l-‘Ulûm is analyzedafter the short introduction of Tertîbü'l-‘ulûm. In doing the analysisof el-Müntehâb, while translating and evaluating it, the differences betweenthe two works are revealed. Theanalysis is done on the only available copy ofthe work, which is present in Çorum Hasan Paşa Manuscript Library. Additionalinformation is added in order to make meaning more accurate; they are indicatedin brackets. The manuscript is divided into paragraphs where it is appropriatein the process of transcription. In addition, titles are added for the readersto follow the text better and some words are highlighted where it is necessary.While evaluating the texts, the issues addressed by Ahmed Feyzi in his risalahare compared by finding their place in the relevant sections of Saçaklızâde,and the differences and similarities are mentioned in twenty-four items.
