Sumario:İhsan Süreyya Sırma was born in 1944 in the Pervari district of Siirt. He completed his primary education in his own district, and completed his secondary and high school education in Siirt. After graduating from the Faculty of Theology in Ankara in 1966, he went to Paris to do his doctorate. In 1973 he received the title of doctor. In 1974, he started to work as an assistant doctor at Atatürk University. He became an associate professor in 1980 and a professor in 1989 at the same university. İhsan Süreyya Sırma focused on Islamic History and presented 35 books and numerous articles and papers on this subject. We tried to look at İhsan Süreyya Sırma's historiography, historical methodology and the understanding of history of non-Muslims by İhsan Süreyya Sırma. İhsan Süreyya Sırma does not look at history as a observer. In his works, he always handles the events based on the main sources and documents, makes comments on each event and tries to open a horizon to the reader. According to his point to history, all events that have taken place to the present day, should be examined, investigated and evaluated in all dimensions. According to İhsan Süreyya Sırma, history is known only for the phenomenon of time. In other words, time is an arena of the historical events. Ibn Khaldun defines history as "a science that has a precious way, contains numerous benefits, and that is honorable and purposeful. It teaches us the situations and morals of the societies that have come and gone, the biographies of the prophets, the rulers, the situations of the states they govern and the politics they follow due to the fact that we take examples for ourselves and use it for our religion and world."
