Özet: During the transition period from the Tanzimat to the republic, western developments and especiallythe orientalist scientific researches showed their effects, either positive or negative, on Islamic fields.In this period, Muslim intellectuals, who were opposed to positivist thoughts and the reductionistapproach of West to Islam, not only supported their religious values, but also criticized themselves incase of method and mentality. Since Islamic sciences were unable to satisfy the needs of that time, therequirement of renewal and reform came into minds. In this way, a lot of treatises had been written inbasic Islamic sciences, especially in interpretation and Islamic law. The science of History of IslamicSects, which was not an independent Islamic Science in the Tazminat period, has benefited from thesedevelopments. Since it was meaningless to answer the questions about the sects and thoughts thatwere already removed from the historical view and literature; the requirement of determining a newmethod for the religions and views, which were opposed to Islam, has been a debate. Looking for newsolutions and the requirement of renewal gave rise History of Islamic Sects to become an independentscience. In this context, the History of Islamic Sects’ journey to become an independent science againand the field’s background that affected the method of the science will be analysed.
