Assalam dear friends and Ms.Wahida:)
Thanks a lot that you had a good presentation but i think you missed some points that we have in Turkiye(I am spelling it Turkiye instead of Turkey because 1st the original name for the country given by its residents is Turkiye which means the land of Turks and in English they even make joke-which is not something nice and annoying- about the spelling similarity of the country Turkey and the animal turkey.One of our prime minister tried to change it and they even signed on an agreement that requires the change of spelling from turkey to Turkiye to its original form but unfortunately
they don't follow what they agreed on.)
well i just would like to add some more points;
-Kurds and terrorism on east part of Turkiye
-Occupation in Cyprus is a wrong interpretation
-Scarf ban and media
First of all,Kurds and terrorism, these two name is connected to each other..the terrorist group PKK which is fed by Europe and America(government forces even found out guns with US brands and even some terrorists with American and Europe countries passports and origin).The thing is that ,since that mostly in east,people are not really educated (because of terrorism again;schools and hospitals were burnt,doctors and teachers were attacked and killed by terrorists and that's why today nobody wants to
work there..)missionaries and terrorism work together to change people's religion in the east which Ottoman brought and once the ties of the feeling of ummah between Turks and Kurds were broken they sent the ideology of nationalism and socialism to these people on the east,and of course they didn't forget to create new madhabz at least to widen the gap between the Muslim Kurds and Turks...And the conflict started..
Second point is that,Turkiye never occupied Cyprus but since
Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus -which you shouldn't think it as a part of Turkiye but an independent state- was attacked by Southern Cyprus of Greeks,Northern Cyprus called Turkiye for help and of course as a responsibility to our brothers and sisters in Islam and nation we sent them help.This help shouldn't be understood as occupation but something natural;imagine you have only half an hour way to go that country by ship or ferry and you have relatives are living there because during the period that countries separated,most of the Turkish citizens(that time Ottoman)stayed in North Cyprus and established their lives there-And plus we have a history that ties us there because even the aunt of prophet Muhammad(s.a.s)'s grave(we call her Hala Sultan which means the Sultan of aunts) is there in the middle of north and south Lefkose and so many graves which belong to Companions..but the humiliation, by the greeks, to those which we greatly respect was something that Muslim Turks can never take...
And i just want to add one more point which is about scarf ban and religious freedom in Turkiye.As you may know that we had these problems and discriminations even though we have a huge number of majority, 99.9%, Muslim, we were the one that was controlled by small,secular but powerful elites.But Alhamdulillah everything is about to change and please never believe 100% in what you read or watch from the Western News Networks because even for the protests against the lifting of scarf ban was showed as if there are thousands of people against scarf where in a country with 99.9% of Muslim population,i am repeating again again 99.9%,(recent total population is almost 80million) but the real number of protestants was not even 50 ,you will see the reality when you check the police reports and Muslim Media in Turkiye.
I don't know what else to say,we also have thousands of issues to discuss just like those other Muslim countries...But Muslim should never loose hope...May Allah be with us...Amin
Wassalam...
