the suffer<strong>in</strong>gs <strong>in</strong> the world are to be brought to a complete end.<br />

The current conditions clearly show that urgent need for<br />

Muslims to unite. Either the Turkish-Islamic world will unite, a climate<br />

<strong>of</strong> peace and well-be<strong>in</strong>g will emerge, security and peace will be built<br />

and happy times ensue, or else the current troubles and suffer<strong>in</strong>gs will cont<strong>in</strong>ue.<br />

The Answer to the Current Problems Is to<br />

Act <strong>in</strong> Unity and Unison<br />

The times when Islamic civilization illum<strong>in</strong>ated the whole world and<br />

represented a role model for everyone <strong>in</strong> terms <strong>of</strong> science, art, architecture<br />

and commerce were those times when Muslims acted <strong>in</strong> unity and unison.<br />

Many lead<strong>in</strong>g Islamic scholars <strong>in</strong> the 10th and 11th centuries and after, such<br />

as Ibn al-Haytham, al-Jabr, Avicenna and many others earned great admiration<br />

<strong>in</strong> the field <strong>of</strong> science, while great artists such as Mimar S<strong>in</strong>an <strong>in</strong><br />

Ottoman times earned the admiration <strong>of</strong> the whole world <strong>in</strong> art and architecture.<br />

At the root <strong>of</strong> the way that Muslims, who adopted the morality <strong>of</strong><br />

the Qur’an, brought compassion, reason, science, art, beauty, cleanl<strong>in</strong>ess<br />

and well-be<strong>in</strong>g everywhere they went dur<strong>in</strong>g those centuries and that the<br />

Islamic world was the most modern and contemporary civilization lay the<br />

climate <strong>of</strong> peace and security provided by the spirit <strong>of</strong> unity. The Turkish-<br />

Islamic world now needs to reacquire that power, radiance and abundance.<br />

But for all k<strong>in</strong>ds <strong>of</strong> activity <strong>in</strong> that direction, there needs to be a spirit<br />

<strong>of</strong> brotherhood among all Muslims and the unity <strong>of</strong> the Turkish-Islamic<br />

world has to be established. If a reconciliatory and peace-lov<strong>in</strong>g culture prevails<br />

among Muslims, one that treats differences with understand<strong>in</strong>g, uses<br />

its strength and energy for Islam and the benefit <strong>of</strong> Muslims and humanity<br />
