SIMPLIFIED: Turkey's War Between Secularism & Islamism | Why The Hagia Sophia Turned Into A Mosque

READ ME:
Hey guys! The Arabic translation will be coming up in a few days. Sorry for the inconvenience x
Recently, Turkey’s president announced that the Hagia Sophia will, once again, be converted to a mosque, igniting mixed reactions from all corners of the World.
Whilst some consider this transformation a triumph for Turkey’s abandoned Islamic history, others view it as a set-back to decades of Turkish development, with the Pope himself claiming to be ‘very saddened’ by the decision.
And although on the outside, this issue doesn’t seem to be worthy of all the commotion it has stirred, especially under today’s pandemic-related events; in reality, it is a reminder of a much larger conflict- one that has divided the Turkish population for decades: the war between secularism and Islamism.
Read about why the Hagia Sophia is being converted to a Mosque, why many Turks consider this to be such a catastrophe, and the history of secularism and Islamism in the region.

In my opinion, secularism would be right but pacifistic secularism, so that no religion rules more in government
