First, it is emphasized that compliance with ESG criteria is a prerequisite for entering international markets, especially in regions with strict regulations such as the European Union. By improving their ESG performance, companies reach a wider customer base and gain a competitive advantage. Consumers' interest in environmentally friendly and socially responsible products makes companies with high ESG performance more attractive, which attracts the attention of international investors and supports growth strategies. In the chemical sector, the importance of ESG performance is increasing as an area where environmental impacts must be considered. Companies comply with international regulations by reducing natural resource consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, and this provides an advantage in entering the market. The research also examines the relationship between ESG data and the value of company shares; it is stated that companies with strong ESG performance develop long-term value creation strategies and that this situation can increase market value. In addition, by analyzing the relationship between EBITDA and ESG data, it is concluded that environmentally sustainable practices can increase profitability by reducing costs. As a result, compliance with ESG criteria helps companies gain a better reputation in international markets and increase their profitability.

The first science whose method and procedure were systematized in terms of science is Hadith and its methodology. Hadiths have been transmitted to subsequent generations as oral and written materials, starting from the first generation of the Companions. The transmitted hadiths have been systematized, compiled and classified as a result of meticulous and diligent studies. The hadiths compiled since the early periods of Islam have been studied and memorized in different times and places. At the forefront of these places are undoubtedly the madrasahs, which are among the founding elements of Islamic civilization. Although madrasahs have various functions, they have undertaken the duties of preserving, memorizing and defending the transmitted sciences in particular. Numerous large and small madrasahs have been established throughout history in the Islamic world. One of these established madrasahs is the Eastern Madrasahs, which are located within the borders of our country and have met the scientific needs of the region in which they are located throughout history. In this study, the relationship between Eastern madrasahs and hadith and the place and importance of hadith in Eastern madrasahs is emphasized. In addition, the mastery of hadith and the methodology of hadith by the lecturers and their perspectives on hadith in today's world are discussed. In addition, the works written by regional scholars and lecturers on hadith and the methodology of hadith are briefly introduced.

With the rapid increase in the adoption of electric vehicles and their integration into grid systems, this study aims to help electric vehicle users generate additional income by using the vehicle-to-grid (V2G) system, which is dependent on the grid's energy demand. At the same time, it seeks to assist energy supply companies in making more efficient and sustainable energy procurement plans by accurately forecasting these demand fluctuations. The integration of electric vehicles with network energy demands presents new opportunities for grid management, and managing this integration effectively is critical to balancing energy supply and demand. The accuracy of energy demand forecasting not only improves energy management but also offers significant opportunities for sustainable energy production and consumption. In this thesis, the impact of electric vehicles on network energy demands will be analyzed comprehensively using ANN and ML methods, and how electric vehicle users can benefit from demand fluctuations through V2G will be explored in detail. Furthermore, the strategic advantages this system can offer to energy supply companies and the potential optimizations that can be achieved in energy management will be discussed. Ultimately, this study aims to develop a model that contributes to grid management through electric vehicles, thereby enhancing both efficiency and sustainability in the energy sector.

In this context, information is provided on economic sanctions and types of economic sanctions in the study prepared by using document analysis. Then, the sanctions imposed on Russia, the sanctions imposed by the European Union countries and the United States of America are evaluated. Then, the financial sanctions imposed on Russia, the effects of these sanctions on the Russian economy and the effects of the sanctions on the Russian policy area are evaluated. As a result of the study, it is seen that the disagreements and conflicts that started between Russia and Ukraine in 2014 and continued with Russia's destructive initiatives are not accepted especially by the United States of America and the European Union countries and have caused the development of trade embargoes and economic sanctions against Russia. In this context, it has been determined that the sanctions imposed have debilitating effects on the Russian economy as well as its general situation, but they do not have a deterrent effect.

To manage their incomes effectively and to make informed choices among increasingly complex financial instruments, individuals require a robust foundation of financial knowledge; this need is directly associated with the level of financial literacy. Financial literacy is critically important not only for individual welfare but also, at a macro level, for the economic performance of countries. As a determinant of society’s future, financial literacy should be assessed in conjunction with social media, which exerts a substantial influence on decision-making processes. Social media—regarded as one of the most significant technological breakthroughs encompasses a range of services that extend beyond mere information sharing. Access to various forms of financial information can rapidly reach broad audiences through social media channels. It is evident that the diffusion of financial literacy across society requires the implementation of targeted educational programs. Education constitutes the primary pathway to achieving financial literacy. However, the design and execution of effective programs depend first and foremost on accurately identifying the scope and content of educational needs; indeed, the literature demonstrates that different segments of society exhibit distinct financial literacy requirements. The findings of this study will facilitate the development of such programs; moreover, by examining the influence of media and social media, it will become possible to leverage these platforms more effectively to strengthen financial literacy. Both the importance and the volume of research focused on financial literacy are increasing. The principal aim of the study is to elucidate the impact of media on financial literacy.
