{{Main|Maturidi}}
Founded by [[Abu Mansur al-Maturidi]] (d. 944), Maturidiyyah was the major tradition in [[Central Asia]]<ref>Marlène Laruelle Being ''Muslim in Central Asia: Practices, Politics, and Identities'' Brill, 2018 {{ISBN|978-9004357242}} p. 21</ref> based on [[Hanafi]]-law. It is more influenced by Persian interpretations of Islam and less on the traditions established within Arabian culture.<ref>Marlène Laruelle ''Being Muslim in Central Asia: Practices, Politics, and Identities'' Brill, 2018 {{ISBN|978-9004357242}} p. 21</ref> In contrast to the traditionalistic approach, Maturidism allows to reject [[hadith]]s based on reason alone.<ref>Rico Isaacs, Alessandro Frigerio ''Theorizing Central Asian Politics: The State, Ideology and Power'' Springer, 2018 {{ISBN|978-3319973555}} p. 108</ref> Nevertheless, revelation remains important to inform humans about that is beyond their intellectual limits, such as the concept of an afterlife. [[Ethics]] on the other hand, do not need prophecy or revelation, but can be understood by reason alone. One of the tribes, the [[Seljuk Turks]], migrated to [[Turkey]], where later the [[Ottoman Empire]] was established.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://philtar.ucsm.ac.uk/encyclopedia/islam/sunni/matur.html |title=Maturidiyyah |work=Philtar |access-date=2006-04-01 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060223020644/http://philtar.ucsm.ac.uk/encyclopedia/islam/sunni/matur.html |archive-date=2006-02-23 }}</ref> Their preferred school of law achieved a new prominence throughout their whole empire although it continued to be followed almost exclusively by followers of the [[Hanafi]] school while followers of the [[Shafi]] and [[Maliki]] schools within the empire followed the Ash'ari and Athari schools of thought. Thus, wherever can be found [[Hanafi]] followers, there can be found the [[Maturidi]] creed.<ref>{{cite book |author=Jeffry R.
