Such a shame to see where Turkey is currently considering its past.
One thing i dont understand is, how does the islamic party do so well despite the strong secularism/nationalism in the country.
Ameen to ur duas.

While secularism is strong amongst the elite and many of the professionals, the public still have the strong love and desire for Islam in their hearts.
Tabligh is also spreading like wildfire in the country, which aids in creating a thirsts for Islam, thus the wide support for the Islamic party.

While, in Istanbul, the great Sufi, Mahmud Efendi has worked wonders and has a huge following. Istanbul is the furthest a city could be from Islamic, yet when one steps into his area in Fatih, one feels like one is in Madinah!

May Allah Ta'ala revive Islam in that country, to its past glory.
Amin
