From the conquest of the <a href="/wiki/Mamluk_Sultanate_(Cairo)" class="mw-redirect" title="Mamluk Sultanate (Cairo)">Mamluk Sultanate of Cairo</a> in 1517 onwards, the Ottoman ulama set up their own interpretation of the Sunni Hanafi doctrine which then served as the official religious doctrine of the empire. The formal acknowledgment by decree of the sultan became a prerequisite to issue fatwas. In the 17th century, the annalist al-Hamawi used the expression "sultanic mufti" (<i>al-ifta' al-sultani</i>) to delineate the difference between the officially appointed religious leaders and those who had followed the traditional way of education.<sup id="cite_ref-burak21-64_48-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-burak21-64-48"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-49" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-49"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>49<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Other authors at that time called the Ottoman law scholars "Hanafi of Rūm [i.e., the Ottoman Empire]" <i>(Rūmi ḫānāfi)</i>, "Scholars of Rūm" <i>(ʿulamā'-ı rūm)</i> or "Scholars of the Ottoman Empire" (<i>ʿulamā' al-dawla al-ʿUthmaniyyā</i>).<sup id="cite_ref-50" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-50"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>50<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The <a href="/wiki/Shaykh_al-Isl%C4%81m" title="Shaykh al-Islām">Shaykh al-Islām</a> (<a href="/wiki/Turkish_language" title="Turkish language">Turkish</a>: <i lang="tr">Şeyhülislam</i>) in Istanbul became the highest-ranking Islamic scholar within, and head of the ulama throughout the empire.<sup id="cite_ref-burak21-64_48-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-burak21-64-48"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>The ulama in the Ottoman Empire had a significant influence over politics due to the belief that secular institutions were all subordinate to Islamic law, the <a href="/wiki/Sharia" title="Sharia">Sharia</a> (<a href="/wiki/Turkish_language" title="Turkish language">Turkish</a>: <i lang="tr">Şeriat</i>).
