On the Literature of Ottoman Courts and Judges

The judge and the court mean the manifestation of the law in any place. It is the most important topic of the social history. Nevertheless there are only a few separate studies concerning Ottoman qadis and courts. As for the studies in bits, they are insufficient in order to bring the matter to light properly. It appears that the researchers have been restrained away from this topic because of the archive documents have not been completely opened to classification, and apart from the uncertainity over the classic period, the studies concerning qadis are required basic, in addition, to know the Islamic law and Ottoman language sufficiently. Unless the Ottoman court system history has been clarified thoroughly, it would have been difficult to understand the Ottoman history and its institutions, and even the world history.
