What does a real hero do during the wars(Epic independence realities)1916 1st World War in Canakkale

I want to tell you about very interesting memories which were taken place in my countrie's independence war in very poor and bad conditions. And also waiting your countrie's hero stories. During 1st World War in 1916 an army officer in the command of Ataturk had to take the vehicle tyres needed by Turkish army against English and French troops which are trying to land Canakkale,Turkey to occupy Istanbul. At that time the merchants of these products are all Jews in Istanbul and they don't think about the independence of Turkey. When the merchant of tyre didn't give him the tyres without money(there is not money, there is not food to feed people at that time) he said that he would bring the money tomorrow and ordered him to prepare the tyres. Then in one night he prepared a fake 100 lira that can't be differentiated by the real one but with one detail. In the real one it was written on the bottom that its value will be exchanged with gold in the central bank. But he wrote the bottom that its value will be exchanged with gold in Canakkale. The meaning of gold in Canakkale was the blood of our heros. Turkish army didn't let any moderner English-French-New Zealander soldier to land on our country and we are safe now here. Thanks to our hero grandpa's and Ataturk.

Who saved prophet Muhammed's grave? Ataturk!

Who saved prophet Muhammed's grave? Ataturk!

During the 1930's the king of Saudi Arabia began to demolish all the graves in the country because worshipping to the graves was a sin according to islam. When it was time to demolish the grave of prophet Muhammed all of the muslims in Arabia request help from Mustafa Kemal Ataturk(great founder of Turkish Republic) and he sent a note to the king of Arabia saying if he have touched any stone of the Muhammed's grave he would pay really much worth of this behaviour (may be war or another thing). Then the grave is still there.. Now people are talking about that Ataturk was not a real muslim, he changed the state of country, stopped caliphate.. When we think about all the things, revolutions he had made there is no way besides obeying his way. He was a great man that all the public leaders Che Guavera, Fidel Castro or others walked with Ataturk's light. When Che was dead the book of Ataturk "Nutuk (speech)" was found in his bag. You can search this. If there is someone that we must try to understand that is Ataturk. He is the father of Turkish people and every children in the world..

Yuna Brezka's great answer to this topic, thanks her

As I know that dead people are taken to thier countries to burial if they die here …

No one can demolish prophet Muhammad(peace be upon him) grave !!

and visiting graves is not a sin at all BUT grave worshipping is a sin !

And about shrines read this …

Shrines are completely Haram (forbidden) in Islam because they are paganistic and polythiestic in nature. Historically, Prophet Muhammad (صلّى الله عليه وآله وسلّم) destroyed all the shrines in Mecca. This point cannot be stressed enough: the Prophet (صلّى الله عليه وآله وسلّم) shed blood of the Sahabah in order that Mecca be cleansed of shrines, and this was one of the Prophet’s first legislative acts after the Muslims conquered Mecca. How is it that the Shia do not realize that what they are doing is completely antithetical to the entire mission of the Prophet (صلّى الله عليه وآله وسلّم) who was sent to guide a shrine-worshipping people?

The Prophet (صلّى الله عليه وآله وسلّم) repeatedly condemned grave-worshipping in the authentic Hadith:

“Beware of those who preceded you and used to take the graves of their prophets and righteous men as places of worship, but you must not take graves as mosques; I forbid you to do that.” (Sahih Muslim)

“May Allah’s curse be on the Jews for they built the places of worship at the graves of their Prophets.” (Sahih Bukhari)

“May Allah curse the Jews and Christians for they built the places of worship at the graves of their Prophets.” (Sahih Bukhari)

“If any religious man dies amongst those people they would build a place of worship at his grave and make these pictures in it. They will be the worst creature in the sight of Allah on the Day of Resurrection.” (Sahih Bukhari)

“Do not sit on the graves and do not pray facing towards them.” (Sahih Bukhari)

Hi how are you? May I invite you to an language challenge please? Please keep on writing daily.

It is said by the researchers that Turkish is one of the most complicated languages and to observe, learn and begin to speak Turkish is improving childrens brains and cleverness. They say that Turkish children are more intelligent than their mates in other countries. Of course in spite of starting to improve brain rapidly we are loosing this advantage and being past by other countries in further studies. What do you say?

I can say the same thing with 1 word in Turkish but with 12 words in English.

Turkish: Değiştiremediklerimizdenmisiniz?
English: Are you one of the people who we couldn't have changed yet?

In Turkish there are too many additions to the basic word.

how about the other languages? Russian is in that way with Turkish too. Additionss. They make it difficult.

Goodbye

Can I walk with you?

Can I walk with you?

Hello everyone. Title is choosen from a song of India Arie and this song is nice to my ear, I like it. It is giving a nice msg. Okey I have been following that site for a month and I am writing really much to friends but I could only have active friends less than a hands fingers. I invite you to be more avtive. Lets hurry up "Everybody Jump".. :)

My first aim to follow this site is to improve my english and instant hand writing. While trying to talk about good topics with people we are learning very interesting things about other countries and also I am taking feedbacks from people who had visited my country. I am using these feedbacks to improve myself in worldwide human relationships, behaviors to foreigns. Every countries people has a different behaviour and thinking. I mean someone likes close and hot starts with other new people, I mean a sincere start from the beginning and you can do everything for enjoyable moments from the beginning. Some people are behaving oppositely and keep a distance for the first time and try to recognize someone before being sincere.

By the way there are too many different things among people. Someone eats meal by hand someone eats by fork someone eats by rods(Chinese :)). Someone wears white while happy but someone wears white while mourning after death. Someone likes eye touch someone feels uncomfortable under eye touch.. These are the most common feelings and behaviours of different cultures. Here I am to recognize people and when I see foreigners here I want to behave them lovely they like and also let them feel comfortable in my country.

The last aim is to build very nice friendships and not only to invite people here to my home to guide them an excellent journey in Turkey but also want to be invited to their countries to see their lifes.

How can I show you my sincere and my friendly behaviours. There are too many things in life. Love, Richness, Success, Youth, Baby borns, we may feel all these natural feelings in our lifes and be happy. By the way there are Love Hurts, Upsets, Illness, Death, which we taste at least one time.

Have you ever watch the lifes of penguins in the poles. Once a time they are migrating from one place to another in a long and hard travel to leave their eggs. While going there they are travelling in a large group and while resting they are forming a circle like sunflower and penguins in the outer level of circle are stopping the cold and the penguins inside are feeling warm between them. But they are changing positions from inside to outside as a rotation and everyone is standing in the outer circle one time without being effected by cold causing to die too long.

I want to explain my pleasure trying to find too mant friends to form the biggest sunflower :) I wish I could explain you my emotions. keep in touch. I love you

I have born in Turkey in 6 Oct 1984. Now I am an electronics engineer working in phone communication. I like living near seaside. I like swimming and every branch of sports. I am not very talkative but that doesn't mean that I am shy. I prefer to live the moment unless we have a nicer conversation than the place I am in :? I love you
