His M.A thesis was a comparative study analyzing the ontology and hermeneutics of the Sufi Ibn al-‘Arabi by appealing to philosophical hermeneutics and phenomenology. He has worked four years for the Scientific & Technological Research Council of Turkey, in the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Grant Committee. His current field of research is “History and Critical Theories of Religion.” His readings in Islamic philosophy and Sufi hermeneutics are going parallel with those in phenomenology and modern hermeneutics.
