Özet

Ihsan is used in two somewhat different meanings as an act of doing someone a favour and doing a good job [itqan]. The third meaning that the word ihsan is attributed with the signification of the hadith of Djabra 'il is to worship as if seeing God. This last meaning has a moral emphasis. On the one hand, it refers to the necessity of a person to be sincere in worship, but on the other hand, it points to the ontological and epistemological depth of human existence. In this framework, ihsan and the justice associated with it are qualities in al-Asma' al-Husna of Allah. A network of semantic relations has been created in accordance with the codes of this thought in Islamic thought especially in the mystical context. In Abu al-Baqa' al-Kaffawi's conceptual scheme, one of the authorities in the field of terminology, justice is superior to ibsan. In Raghib al-Isfahani's scheme, justice comes after ibsan. However, in this last scheme, it can be seen that the concepts of justice and ihsan are built only on the act of obedience (giving). It is understood that the ru 'yat Allah and shahada connection of the concept in question is disabled here. As for the concept scheme created by .saft thought the concept of ibsan has been placed after justice. On the other hand, the concept of mushahadah has been evaluated in connection with concepts such as haya and inzi'ac.
