  • Turkey is torn between the deeply secular heritage of its founder Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and the state religion now promoted by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. The government is trying to impose its views through psychological pressure and a revised educational curriculum, but is meeting strong resistance. Our Istanbul correspondent Shona Bhattacharyya reports.

    I am Turkish, I am a Muslim and I think it was wrong to revert the Hagia Sophia/Ayia Sofya back into a mosque! It stands for the history of Greece and Turkey and should remain a place of culture for either peoples memory! I would even go so far to let Greek Orthodox ppl to celebrate their holidays in it and let Muslims do the same in our holidays!

      @Brother if there is a community of muslim brothers and sisters, I agree. But fact is, our motherland has still many Orthodox Christians. They love our shared country and culture and I think they should have the right to have their churches as we do have our rights for a mosque.

    Turkish people should visit Pakistan to see what happens when you Islamify your country. Pakistan was making leaps and bounds in the 60's under a secular Ayub Khan, our Mustafa Kemal.

      Ataturk didn't call himself "Ataturk", that was a name given to him by the parliament. Ataturk passed a lot of laws to advance the society into 20th century and while he did those with one party, he encouraged multiple parties and left a multiple party democratic parliament. Unfortunately Turkey's (and Ottoman Empire's) past is littered with the incursions of religious sects into governing the society. These sects have risen to power like never before in 500 years. They're doing everything to stain Ataturk's legacy, and even try to erase him from memory.

      The government isn't really religious; it's political and civilisational with the use of religion as a tool.
      There is a difference; Islamism is not the same as Islam. That's why Iran has an Islamist government, but the Turkey has a more religious population.
      At the same, Turkey's secularism has not always been liberal; in fact it has a dictatorial aspects, which is in turn responsible for the rise of an Islamist response. Secular Turks need to understand where they are failing, and why Erdogan is getting the majority vote in a country that they believed should be defined as secular, while religious Turks need to also not make the mistake of politicizing religion too much by becoming more power-focused than spiritual as it explains the rise of Deism among it's youth.
      Everything requires a balance in my opinion.

Secularism shouldn't mean that the state rejects religious beliefs or practices, or the religious heritage of its citizens. Clearly in France there are very active churches and mosques. There are religious programmes on state TV and radio. Historial churches are maintained by the state. Most public holidays are from the church calendar, and shops close on Sundays. But no one is expected to follow a faith, no one is advantaged or disadvantaged by his religious stance, and no one ay school is protected from scientific reality because it goes against the teachings of some fundamentalists. That just seems about right to me.

      Fair enough. That’s better than it being a state owned project. If it’s his private property, he has that right. But the guy could CHOOSE to make it more inclusive. Having the legal right to do something doesn’t automatically make it the right thing to do 😑

Hijab is only disallowed in certain places by some countries. For example in France hijab is not allowed in schools, but Jewish cap, large crosses, Sikh turbans are also banned. But outside they are free. How does secularism mess up things? History shows us that many countries which become secular have progressed far ahead of religious countries. Sexualized? Very funny. You mean no rapes in religious countries, no child sex abuse, no religious teachers in madrassas sexually abusing students? You cannot use your interpretation of religion to rule a country because not everyone believes the same, even Muslims have different opinion about Sharia, and these differences must be respected.

People who practices Islam (5 times praying in a day, reading Quran, fasting in Ramadan etc.) only 15 or 20% of the population. Go and see Turkey in Ramadan, all restaurants are open etc. Alcohol consumption is a normal thing etc.
    Islam is only a cultural affiliation for Turks. The guy complains about in Hagia Sophia many did not pray and wondering inside, taking pictures etc... Even that is a proof is that he is wrong.

Hagia Sophia is in Turkey, Greeks tried to take it back a hundred years ago, they failed. The Turks can do what they want with Hagia Sophia. Spain turned Mosques and Synagogues into churches after 1492, Pagan Sites were turned into Christian churches- logic of history, to the victor goes the spoils...and to that logic, Israel should be able to build Third Temple in Jerusalem- they conquered East Jerusalem in 1967- the Jews won, so following the reasoning of Osman the Historian, Israel can do what they want in Jerusalem.

They are the reason why the Kurds weren't fully assimilated and will never be assimilated). At the same time, we would be able to protect our Kurdish identity and learn both languagues at the same time.

Can you call this country as secular ? Of course not. By the way, Turkey is the most secular country in Islamic world, however for Europe it can't be called as secular at all.

    Turkiye has been established as a secular state after the fall of the Ottoman Empire. Ataturk insisted on it being secular. But islamists have changed it after Ataturk is gone. Islamic extremism in Turkiye has been quiet for many years until Islamist Erdogan came to power. He wants to turn Turkiye into a hard core Islamic state. Went recently to a Turkish village and dined at a small village cafe. The owner is quite hesitant to serve us because we are not Muslims. He repeatedly asked us if we are not muslims. After we answered we aren’t, he’s not much very attentive to our inquiries and went away ignoring us. We have not encountered this kind of Islamic extremism before. There might be extremism before but not as strong as nowadays when Erdogan is highly promoting it, disregarding the foundations of the Turkiye as a secular state.

    Hi, I love the Turkish people. I could have gone anywhere in the world for my yearly vacation, I chose Istanbul. This was in 2011. I took pictures, just wonderful. I remember walking outside taking pictures and a young Turkish boy, maybe 14 years old approached me and could tell I was an American and I was so impressed with 'everything' including the 'Blue Mosque. We talked about his city for a minute and where I came from then he invited me to come inside the Blue Mosque, I followed him and removed my shoes, washed my feet. I love the kindness of this, young man. His parents should be proud of him.
    Looking back, I also remember an older man (Taxi driver ) who I paid to take me to the Phanar, He did and waited while I walked to the office, hoping to see the patriarch, Bartholomew, but he was not in. I went inside the chapel and back to the taxi. The driver took me back to where he picked me up. The older driver told me how much to charge was, In lira, I understand the difference between lira and dollars. The dollar cost was like $5.00 I had no change and handed him a $20.00 bill and ask if he had change? I told him how much in Lira the difference would be. I was shocked!! he refused to give me my change. He tried to steal my money. I wrestled my change from him and left walking towards the Bosphorus.
    The contrast between these encounters in Turkey will never leave my memory.
    The boy was an Angel, the older Turk was a demon.

    From Bangladesh here, I can tell that here people are getting more radicalized than say 10 years ago, attacks on minorities are again on the rise, religious preachers are using power of social media to spew more venoms, to gain more popularity....oddly among the radical groups 'Ertugrul' turkish show is very popular, even though they themselves tell music or cinema entertainment as haram.
    Few years ago, atheist were targeted one by one and killed, either they escaped to Europe or USA or was dead(thankfully the court recently gave death sentence to the attacker).
    So, folks in Turkey, either strive for your right or perish.
