This study examines changing gender roles and women& / #8217 / s status under the light of tö / re/yasa and shar& / #299 / & / #8216 / a among the Inner Asian Turkic and Mongolian societies and Ottomans in Anatolia especially between the thirteenth and the first half of the sixteenth centuries. In this frame, this study traces gender roles and women& / #8217 / s status in Inner Asia before the influence of Islamic culture and civilizations by using oral and written sources as well as anthropological studies. It also focuses on the formation of tö / re and yasa among Inner Asian societies and shar& / #299 / & / #8216 / a in the Muslim world. Finally, this study investigates gender roles and women& / #8217 / s status in relation with customary (yasa/tö / re and ö / rf-i sultani) and religious laws (shar& / #299 / & / #8216 / a ) among the Mongol Ilkhans, Timurids and Ottomans. Gender roles and women& / #8217 / s status are examined according to political, social and cultural characteristics of these dynasties from a comparative perspective.
