In addition to that Ottoman sultans hold the authority of execution, legislation and jurisdication, they managed the state notin patrimonial way but according to the codes and superiority of law. Oneof the prominent characteristics of Ottoman state management is the principle of justice. The basic legality of Ottoman sultans is to apply provision in Quran and the sunna. In fact one of the four basic principles ofQuran is justice. Therefore, sultans predicated on the superiority of law byreducing themselves to "the state of efrad-ı nas", they considered it as thetask of sultan to regard rayah group as the deposit of God, to protect themand not allow anybody to tyrannize. The function of "hall and akd" (en- coding and resoving) addigned to the ruler is to ensure relation among thewhole citizens fairly. Like in many other issues, the perception of justicewas accessed at peak point in the period of Kanuni Sultan Süleyman (Suleyman The Magnificent) in Ottoman State. He was named as "Kanuni"not because he made up new laws but because he made existing lawswritten down and implemented them very strictly. The traces of justiceperception of Kanuni can be pursued in odes written by himself with thepseudonym of Muhibbi, apart from historical events. In this study, in thelight of verses obtained by review of Diwan, justice sense and perceptionof Kanuni Sultan Suleyman who was named with the title of "Kanuni theMagnificent" and left his mark on a century will be exposed.
