Erdogan: The man who has dominated Turkish politics for 20 years

The presidential election on May 14 was seen as Erdogan's biggest political challenge.
And while he did get the most votes, he fell short of the 50 percent needed to win for the first time in his career.
Al Jazeera’s Alexi O'Brien breaks down the numbers and regions that matter.

I believe maybe Allah Almighty have sent Erdogan to 'Refresh' the religion(Islam) in the land of the last caliphate . Maybe he is kind of 'Mujaddid' (you can search about it) . Maybeee .... Wallaualambishawab , Allah Almighty know best

[@tehaisikattepi9393]

A mujaddid (Arabic: مجدد), is an Islamic term for one who brings "renewal" (تجديد, tajdid) to the religion. According to the popular Muslim tradition, it refers to a person who appears at the turn of every century of the Islamic calendar to revive Islam, cleansing it of extraneous elements and restoring it to its pristine purity. In contemporary times, a mujaddid is looked upon as the greatest Muslim of a century. Source :Wikipedia

It's not allowed to idolize a person other than the prophet(SAW). Turkish people have lost their minds, while Erdogan is filling his and his friends' pockets ..

[@yasinekici8146]

@@Brazorrr Brother, assalumu aleykum. Having agreed with your statement about not to idolize any person apart from our precious prophet SAW. I genuinely ask you, does a man who aged like 60-65 and have already had things to afford a comfortable life think about more money or filling up his pocket ? It doesn't seem to make sense at all for me, to be honest.
