wa'alaykum salam brother,
we are glad that you are here. Inshallah, you will enjoy the TTI website. I have heard many conflicting things about Islam in Turkey. The government seems to be putting aside all muslim culture (hijab, beard, etc.), while many mu'umins stubbornly hold to the truth of Islam and the glory of the caliphate.
Your country seems to struggle between staying Turkish and becoming european. It must be a very exciting place to live! Looking forward to seeing your point of view on the posts.
