Ottoman Fracticide Law
Fracticide law yang dipraktik Ottoman:
What made princely competition and fratricide more profound, as mentioned earlier, was their codification in dynastic law (Kanunname-i Âl-i Osman) by Mehmed II (r. 1451–1481). The law states, “For the welfare of the state, the one of my sons to whom God grants the sultanate may lawfully put his brothers to death. A majority of the ulema consider this permissible.” With this code, fratricide gained firmer ground as acceptable and customary, and Mehmed’s law attempted to entrench its permissibility vis-à-vis Islamic law
