- Abstract
Hayâl-i zıll, that is, shadow play is one of the exciting and rich sources of Turkish culture and literature, and various opinions have been suggested about its emergence. It is rumored that this game came to Anatolia either from Central Asia or with the Gypsies who migrated to the West from India. According to another view, it is the form of two people who were executed because they caused a delay in the mosque's construction during the reign of Sultan Orhan. Although these views were not accepted because they were not based on documents, according to an opinion based on documents, this play came to the Ottoman Empire through Mamluk artists from Egypt in the 16th century. It is reported that the earliest depictions of the shadow play, also known as the Karagöz play, are from the late 19th century, but there are 12th-century Egyptian depictions in German museums. This game, referred to as "hayal-i zıl" in Ottoman documents, has also been the subject of Ottoman fatwas, and the questions and answers regarding its ruling have been included in some fatwa books. When the ruling on watching this play was asked in a fatwa, it was stated that it would be a good thing if it were watched to take a lesson. The game of hayâl-i zıll started to take place in the Ottoman fatwa books from the 16th century and was included in the chapters of karahet and istihsan. In this study, a few fatwas found in Ottoman fatwa books regarding the game of hayâl-i zıll, and an Arabic verse among them will be introduced.
