Özet: It is thought that Imam Māturīdī (d. 333/944), who has a voluminous work of tafsir as well as being a competent mutakallim, is closely interested in the basic issues of the individual and society. Māturīdī aimed to build the individual and society on a solid ground from the very beginning. First of all, he determined the characteristics of the nature that will shape the individual life of the human being, which he named as the "small world", and the religious and moral principles that are in harmony with them. While doing this, he took into account the society, socio-cultural and economic situation in which people live. Afterwards, he focused on the meanings attributed to the individual, society and revelation in order to create individual and social consciousness. Māturīdī, who accepts that the revelation is a founding and supporting element of reason, thinks that the line of prophethood that goes back to the Prophet Muhammad completely fulfills this mission. It also points out that revelation is the only element that should be relied upon in matters that cannot be known by reason in individual and social life. In this respect, according to Māturīdī, revelation is a gift of Allah for human beings. Because revelation is the primary factor that encourages people to obey Allah and enable them to achieve this. Our Prophet, who was the addressee of revelation and was assigned to convey it to people, was also described as a mercy for this reason. Throughout the article, the role of revelation in the construction of the individual and society will be discussed by focusing on Māturīdī's views.
