What the institution was

The Ministry of Justice (Adliye Nezareti), created on 14 February 1870 from the court Divan-ı Ahkam-ı Adliye. It came to oversee the new courts (nizamiye) of the provinces and, from 1875, the commercial courts.

History

The regulation of 21 May 1879 renamed it the Ministry of Justice and Sects (Adliye ve Mezahib Nezareti) and gave it the religious affairs of the non-Muslim communities, which until then had belonged to the Foreign Ministry.
