Mustafa CORA
Abstract Of Title
The intention which is the essence and soul of the human actions are like a basic test for the evaluation and validity of thought, behavior, and deed. Thoughts and behaviors gain a different meaning with intention. The intention is closely related to the arbitrariness and quality of behaviors and actions and it also has a significant effect on them. A person can make informed and controlled actions or guide them with intention as well as catching them and taking initiative by using the effective role of intention. Furthermore, an effective mind is like an informed and effective power to transform a person’s desires into action and guide, control, or prevent them. It is an act of the heart. The heart in its essence has quality of being right. In terms of positive intent, its continuity naturally depends on it’s containing function. The intention can be described as thinking, wanting something before doing it, and tending to do it. Therefore, people are responsible for anytendency, deliberation, and intention according to the Quran, and the convenience of the goal requested and wished. This situation indicates that intention is a significant balance element to observe or violate God’s will and limits as well as having a significant place and position like a crossroads. In this regard, understanding the intention, evolving it to positive, and identifying the ways of it, referring to human responsibility is great importance for the Quran. In this study, we aim to give examples in the context of the intention by researchbased on the Quran, to put forward and question what it is, its status in the hadiths, its relation with deeds and how it corresponds according to the deeds and to find appropriate answers by using the basic resources and dogmas.Keywords:Intention, Tendency/Deliberation, Positive/Negative Intention, Intention Responsibility, Behavior/Deed.
