Abstract

The history of waqfs goes back to pre-Islamic times. It is impossible to determine the beginnings of solidarity and altruism in early Islamic societies. Examples of waqfs or similar charitable systems could be seen in many societies. However, this institution type is accepted as very important in Islamic societies; waqfs therefore had a great impact on economic and social life in Turkish and Islamic world. The Waqf institution is an important issue requiring examination from the middle period until recent times in Turkish and Islamic history.
