Bibliometric Evaluation Based on Web of Science Database: Articles on Hadith

Summary/Abstract: In this study, it was aimed to analyze the bibliometric properties of 501 ḥadīth-themed research articles scanned in the WOS database between 2005 and 2023. In this way, it is thought that the study will guide future articles on ḥadīth. The indexes in which the 501 research articles that make up the data set of the study were scanned were generally determined as the SSCI, AHCI and ESCI indexes. As a method, the following study method was followed: The data set on which the study was based was taken from the Web of Science database with the keyword "Ḥadīth". The resulting Bibtext output was visualized in the R Studio bibliometrics application and divided into headings according to certain parameters in line with the questions of the study. One of the most important outcomes of this study was determined as the answer to the following question: What is the place of Turkish theologians and theology journals in ḥadīth research in the world? The importance of this study is to be able to make predictions and suggestions about the future of ḥadīth studies in the world by being familiar with their past. The most important result of the study can be mentioned as follows: Turkish theologians have reached a remarkable level in terms of productivity and therefore quantity of publications in the field of ḥadīth. However, Turkish theologians, who have their names written on the longest lines of the graphs, are far behind in terms of influence in the field in question. It can be said that the most important reason for this is the reluctance to write articles in English, which is the biggest factor of international impact and recognition.
