This paper explores the battle of Siffin as an important epoch in the history of Islam. The major contribution it offers is in revisiting and re-interpreting the historical event. It looks at the impacts of Siffin on Islam through its immediate and long-term effects as well assess the elements of asabiyyah as instrumental in the struggle. The latter is extended to capture the Sunni-Shia divide in the contemporary Islamic world as an extension of the struggle that started during the era of the al-khulafau ar-rashidun (the rightly guided caliphs). The complexity in this major divide has been managed by various individuals across ages to different extent and it has haunted the peace and stability of the ummah to different degrees throughout the ages. Recent events and further politicization or antagonistic declarations on the pulpits fuelled by scholars from different sides have helped to keep the fire burning. It concludes by stressing that the complexity in which the Islamic world has found itself today does not appear to be going away anytime soon, but it could be well-managed through acceptance and tolerance especially as Muslims are in the receiving ends in today’s international system.

Bu çalışmanın konusu İslam öncesinden başlayarak kurulan İslam Devleti’nin başına geçen Muaviye ve Emevileri içermektedir. Dört Halife Devri’nde Hz. Osman döneminden itibaren başlayan iç çatışmalar sonucunda yönetimi ele alan Ümeyyeoğulları yani Emevilerin ve Emeviler içerisinde en çok göze batan ve iktidarı ele alan Muaviye’dir. Onun kurduğu devleti nasıl yönettiği, başarılı iç ve dış siyasal politikaları sayesinde nasıl imparatorluk yarattığını anlatmaya çalıştım. Yani Muaviye’nin Sıffin Savaşıyla beraber Hilafet mücadelesi sonucunda iktidarı ele geçirdikten sonra Emevi Devleti’nin kuruluş sürecini açıklamaya gayret ettim. İslam, hilafet, Emeviler, Muaviye, halife, Sıffin Savaşı
