Hocaefendi Fethullah Gülen:A Personal Appreciation
Drawing both broadly on my research into Fethullah Gülen and the Hizmet movement inspired by his teaching and practice, the author offers some personal reflections in memoriam of Fethullah Gülen, drawing especially on two personal encounters with him
Fethullah Gülen’s Teaching and Practice
This is the first book of its kind about the Turkish Muslim scholar, Fethullah Gülen, since the July 2016 events in Turkey, the trauma experienced by Gülen, and the disruption to initiatives inspired by his teaching, known as Hizmet. Drawing on primary interviews with Gülen and Hizmet participants and a literature review, this Open Access book locates the clear origins of Gülen’s teaching in the Qur’an and Sunnah in dynamic engagement with their geographical, temporal and existential reception, translation, and onward communication. It argues that as Hizmet cannot be understood apart from Gülen and his teaching, Gülen and his teaching cannot be understood apart from Hizmet, while exploring the heritage of both. A more geographically focused case study is set out in author Paul Weller’s Hizmet in Transitions: European Developments of a Turkish Muslim-Inspired Movement, also published by Palgrave Macmillan (2022)

The life, works, and sufi views of Sheikh Ahmed Fethullah Al-Jami
Şeyh Ahmed Fethullah el-Câmî 1921 yılında Türkiye'nin şark bölgesinin Muş vilayetinde dünyaya gelmiş bir Cumhuriyet Dönemi müellifidir. Birinci dünya savaşı esnasında ailesinin büyük bir kısmını kaybeden Câmî, küçük yaşlarından itibaren kardeşiyle beraber hem hayatın çetin zorluklarıyla mücadele etmiş hem de ilim tahsili için farklı bölgelere ilmî seyahatler yapmış dönemin önde gelen âlimlerinden ilim tahsil etmiş zâhid, âbid ve takvâ ehli bir zat olarak temayüz etmiştir. Çok velûd bir müellif olan Câmî'nin dinî ilimlerin muhtelif alanlarına ilişkin yazdığı sekiz eseri mevcuttur. Tasavvuf ile alakalı telif ettiği en önemli eserleri Sevânihü Kalbiyye, ed-Dürerü'l-behiyye fî'l-vesâyâ'l-Câmiyye ve Tenzîhu'l-kulûb li Nazari Allâmi'l-ğuyûb adlı eserleridir. Bunun yanı sıra Mü'minlerin özeliklerine dair önemli bilgiler içeren Min Sifâti'l-mü'minîn fî'l-Kur'âni'l-Kerîm ve Nidâu'l-mü'minîn fî'l-Kur'âni'l-Mubîn adlı eserleri de bizce tasavvuf açısından büyük bir öneme haizdir. Ayrıca Kâdî el-Beydâvî'nın tefsiri ile alakalı yazmış olduğu el-Mücerredu'l-muhtasar min Tefsîri'l-Kâdî el-Beydâvî adlı eseri de tefsir alanında yazılmış önemli telifatıdır. Bu çalışmada yukarıda bahse konu eserler minvalinde Câmî'nin hem tasavvufa dair görüş ve düşünceleri hem de ilmî ve sûfî şahsiyeti etraflıca ortaya konmaya çalışılmıştır. Ayrıca bu çalışma, Kur'ân ve Sünnete dayalı bir tasavvuf anlayışını öne çıkaran Şeyh Ahmed Fethullah el-Câmî'nin Şâzeliyye tarîkatı eksenli irfân geleneğinin tesirinde kaldığını ve bu geleneğin şark uleması arasındaki en önemli takipçisi ve öncülerinden biri olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır.Sheikh Ahmed Fethullah al-Jami was born in 1921 in the Muş province of the eastern region of Turkey, and he was a prominent author of the early Republican era. Having lost much of his family during the First World War, Sheikh Ahmed Fethullah al-Jami, from a young age, struggled with the hardships of life alongside his brother, and embarked on scholarly journeys to various regions to pursue education, learning from leading scholars of the time. He emerged as a significant figure known for his piety, devotion, and scholarly pursuits. As a prolific author, Sheikh Ahmed Fethullah al-Jami wrote eight works covering various aspects of religious sciences. Among his most important works on Sufism are "Sevânihü Kalbiyye," "ed-Dürerü'l-behiyye fî'l-vesâyâ'l-Câmiyye," and "Tenzîhu'l-kulûb li Nazari Allâmi'l-ğuyûb." Additionally, his works "Min Sifâti'l-mü'minîn fî'l-Kur'âni'l-Kerîm" and "Nidâu'l-mü'minîn fî'l-Kur'âni'l-Mubîn" contain significant information about the qualities of believers. Furthermore, his work "el-Mücerredu'l-muhtasar min Tefsîri'l-Kâdî el-Beydâvî" focusing on the commentary of Kadı el-Baydawi is an important contribution to the field of exegesis. This study aims to thoroughly explore Sheikh Ahmed Fethullah al-Jami's views and thoughts on Sufism, as well as his scholarly and Sufi personality, based on the aforementioned works. Moreover, it highlights that Sheikh Ahmed Fethullah al-Jami advocated a Sufi understanding based on the Quran and Sunnah, and was deeply influenced by the Sufi tradition within the Shadhiliyya order, being one of its most significant followers and pioneers among the scholars of the eastern regions

Predictive value of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio in patients with deep neck space infection secondary to acute bacterial tonsillitis
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine whether the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) can be used as a predictor for deep neck space infections (DNSIs) that occur as a complication of acute bacterial tonsillitis in the pediatric population. Materials and methods: We evaluated the NLR values of 180 pediatric patients diagnosed with acute bacterial tonsillitis with or without DNSI who presented to the Otolaryngology Department of Marmara University Hospital between 2010 and 2013. In cases in which DNSI was suspected, the patients underwent complete otolaryngological examination and radiological imaging including CT and MRI. NLR was calculated in all the subjects and was compared between the patients with acute bacterial tonsillitis without DNSI and those with DNSI. Results: With regard to the tonsillitis-related complications, 17 patients had peritonsillar abscess (9.4%); five, parapharyngeal abscess (2.8%); and two, retropharyngeal abscess (1.1%). The mean NLR was significantly higher in the patients of acute bacterial tonsillitis with DNSI (P < 0.05). The optimum cut-off value of NLR was determined to be 5.4. Conclusion: This study is the first to investigate the relationship between NLR and DNSI as a complication of acute bacterial tonsillitis. The results demonstrated that the NLR value could be a potential laboratory parameter for diagnosing DNSIs. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved
Bademcik iltihabı komplikasyonu olarak derin boyun enfeksiyonlu hastalarda trombosit indekslerinin değerlendirilmesi
Amaç: Bu çalışmada trombosit indekslerinin bademcik iltihabı sonrası derin boyun enfeksiyonu (DBE) tanımlamada yararlı olup olmadığı değerlendirildi.Hastalar ve Yöntemler: Ağustos 2010 - Ocak 2014 tarihleri arasında bademcik iltihabı tanısı ile DBE olan ve olmayan Marmara Üniversitesi Pendik Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi Kulak Burun Boğaz Bölümü'ne başvuran toplam 321 hasta geriye dönük olarak incelendi. Hastalara, DBE şüphesi olan durumlarda bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT) veya manyetik rezonans görüntüleme (MRI) de dahil olmak üzere, tam kulak-burun-boğaz muayenesi ve radyolojik görüntüleme çalışmaları yapıldı. Tüm bireylerin ortalama trombosit hacmi (OTH), trombosit dağılım genişliği (TDG) ve trombosit sayısı (PC) hesaplandı ve bademcik iltihabı sonrası DBE olan ile olmayan hastalar arasında karşılaştırıldı.Bulgular: Bademcik iltihabının DBE komplikasyonları ile ilgili olarak, hastaların 25'inde peritonsiller apse (%7.8), 11'inde parafarengeal apse (%3.4) ve altısında retrofarengeal apse (%1.9) vardı. OTH, TDG ve PC değerleri akut bademcik iltihabı ve DBE olan hastalarda belirgin olarak daha yüksekti (p<0.05). OTH, TDG ve PC için optimum eşik değerleri sırasıyla 8.75, 16.65, 278 ve 500 idi.Sonuç: Bu çalışma, akut bademcik iltihabının trombosit indeksleri ile DBE komplikasyonları arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendiren ilk çalışmadır. Sonuçlarımız, OTH, TDG ve PC değerlerinin DBE tanısında potansiyel laboratuvar parametrelerini göstermektedirObjectives: This study aims to evaluate whether platelet indices are helpful to identify deep neck space infections (DNSIs) secondary to acute tonsillitis.Patients and Methods: A total of 321 patients diagnosed with acute tonsillitis with or without DNSI admitted to the Otolaryngology Department of Marmara University Pendik Training and Research Hospital between August 2010 and January 2014 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients underwent full otolaryngologic examination and radiological imaging studies including computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in cases of suspected DNSI. Mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), and platelet count (PC) were calculated in all subjects and these were compared between the patients with or without DNSI secondary to acute tonsillitis.Results: With respect to DNSI complications of tonsillitis, 25 of the patients had peritonsillar abscesses (7.8%), 11 had parapharyngeal abscesses (3.4%), and six had retropharyngeal abscesses (1.9%). The MPV, PDW, and PC values were significantly higher in patients with acute tonsillitis and DNSI (p<0.05). The optimum cut-off values for MPV, PDW, and PC were 8.75, 16.65, 278 and 500, respectively.Conclusion: This study is the first to evaluate the relationship between platelet indices and DNSI complications of acute tonsillitis. Our results demonstrate that MPV, PDW, and PC values are potential laboratory parameters for diagnosing DNSI
Modern Sufism in Turkey: A Study of the Thought of Said Nursi and Fethullah Gulen
The advancement of technology and the development of time, in fact, don’t make sufism become deserted enthusiasts. Sufism is often considered an alternative way of embroidery in the modern era. This is inseparable from the fact that Islamic puritanism echoed by Salafi-Wahabi groups is considered to give birth to new humanitarian problems. Although it was also once considered a barrier in the progress of Islam by Modernists, it is undeniable that the need for sufism in society seems to never die. While in the Arab region the existence of sufism is threatened because it is considered contrary to the idea of Islamic puritanism and is considered a barrier in the progress of Islam, sufism in Turkey actually gets direct opposition from ultra-secular rulers. This makes sufi leaders in Turkey must transform the teachings of sufism. Through this article, the author seeks to display the patterns and approaches of a new sufism in Turkey, which came to be known as modern sufism. The authors base this study from the analysis of Said Nursi and Fethullah Gulen’s thoughts on sufism. The authors conclude that the pattern and approach of modern sufism in Turkey is carried out without tariqah. Nevertheless, the order transformed into an Islamic movement by adopting a state-legalized organization. It is also a form of adaptation carried out by sufi figures in Turkey as a measure of anticipation of the repressive actions of ultra-secular rulers against the followers of the order
