    Lovely video. As a 64 y/o Brit, I have travelled to many countries and lived abroad for 28 years. Visited Turkey first in 1996. This year twice, renting a scooter from Antalya and travelling through this beautiful country. Have made many friends and will visit Istanbul next month. All the people I met left a deep and positive impression on me, so much so that I am now to start reading the Qur'an from M.A.S. Abdel Haleem. I am sure I will have questions and my Turkish friends will guide me further. Thank you for your video's, so insightful for myself and I am sure for many others.

    Sister Lauren. We visit Turkeye on a regular basis from UK. In fact we just got back last night from there and was in Konya for the Shub e Arus. We also visit Mahmud Aziz Hudai RA sometimes in Uskudar and have stayed near there a few times. I met you in London once when you visited South Woodford masjid a few years ago. Not sure if you remember me. But it would be lovely to meet you upon our next visit. We travel solo. That’s me and my husband and hire a car while we are there. It’s always jam packed as we visit so many Sahaba ekram and Awliya. But if Allah wills we can meet in sha Allah. Even for a coffee ❤

    Why do European Muslims prefer Turkey?
    1- non-radical islam
    2- geographical conditions
    3- climate ( A European, especially one accustomed to a rainy climate, cannot survive in hot deserts.)
    4- language ( Since Turkey uses the Latin alphabet, this can make learning the language easier.)
    5- Foods
    6- helpful Turkish people
    7- impressive mosques
    As a result, Turks have introduced the culture of orientalism to Europe for centuries, and today Turkey continues to introduce western culture to the Islamic world...........

    Istanbul for me is a country within a country. It's a fascinating city and there is a lot to see. I find the people quite nice, very helpful and they mind their own business, not bothering anyone. Sadly enough, the inflation factor got in the way and boosted the prices to an unbelievable level. Everything got a lot more expensive than a few years ago and this had somehow pushed people away from Turkiye.
    I love Istanbul, it's really a dream city.

    I traveled through Turkey for a month during the last elections and took part in an Erdogan rally showing my 3 finger salute while dancing with the crowd and took part in the AK PARTi victory celebrations in the square in Bursa my favorite city in Turkey. The bulk of my stay was in Istanbul in two spells. Firstly at the beginning of my travels where I stayed in Yedikule for a week and 10 days in Balat at the end as there was so much to see and do while also being mesmerized by the Bosphorus. It is also a place where you can make your Salaah on time and in congregation even as a traveler because there are so many mosques. But most fascinating for me just like you say is that you feel that you are walking in a film set and part of history which is around every corner and yet connected to 21st century comfort and modernity. One of my highlights was stumbling across by chance seeing the almost 2000 year old Column of Constantine which I did not even know of before.

      People are not stuck in the west. Everyone wants to live here and people do anything to get here and stay here. And those who don't live here love the west and imitate it and want to be like it and have an inferiority complex. I was born and bought up in the west and later in life moved to the muslim world, I don't know why, there was no deen here. You find more practice of deen in the uk. Muslim nations love the west and want to be like them and majority of muslims try to move here and live here. No one is stuck here, they are free to leave
