The relationship between Turkey and Pakistan is based on face-to-face interactions, and cooperation at the military level over the course of many decades now. It has little to nothing to do with the average pakistanis thoughts or feelings, or their consumption of ertugrul, though these things...

I recall reading that King Amanullah Khan of Afghanistan, who was a friend of Ataturks, had once shared with him his desire to implement secular forms emulating what Ataturk implemented in Turkey. Ataturk had advised him not to implement the reforms, as his society was not yet ready. He ended up...

I think the outcome of this election is not so much about erdogans success, though he successfully damage controlled the situation politically speaking, rather about the opposition electorates failure to converge upon a political proposition which was sufficiently compelling to the broader...

For you brother: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جَابِرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عَبْدِ السَّلاَمِ، عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ يُوشِكُ الأُمَمُ أَنْ تَدَاعَى عَلَيْكُمْ كَمَا...
