I AM FROM PAKISTAN, AND AFTER READING THE FORTY RULES OF LOVE, I DESPERATELY WANT TO GO TO KONYA TO MEET SHAMS, MY HEART AND THE MAWLANA RUMI...I LOVE TO HEAR NEY ALL THE TIME
@@ssssameex Im Iranian . We went to his grave in Khoy . Even Mevlana was born in Balkh , one of the cities of Iran , and the book of both is in Persian . Both were Iranians not Turkish .
Was lucky enough that to visit this city last year , turkey has some beautiful places cappadocia is a must it's just stunning full of history and fabulous views 🇹🇷
I spent a month and a half in Konya in June/July 2014. Wonderful city. However, with historical sites there aren't as many, just the area around the Bazaar, Mevlana tomb, and Alaeddin. Not a bad thing, because in other ways its like a "normal" city - shops, malls, restaurants, etc.. But with eklekmek! It is also an excellent location for day-trips, such as Kappadokya, Beysehir, and Catalhoyuk. Its very modern, but also a reminder that there was an Anatolia that predated the Ottomans, with a rich ancient and medieval history on full display in Konya and the surrounding area.
Well ım living in İstanbul so ım Turkish. But i didnt know what does konya looks like, or what happens there. Thanks to you, i learned more about my country :)
I'm an American but spent a semester studying at Konya :) Its definitely different and doesn't compare to Istanbul. It does have a slower pace, and more conservative (but there are some areas of the city that aren't). Outside the Mevlana Turbe, the Bazaar and some other sites downtown, there isn't much in the way of history to see. But take side-trips to Catalhoyuk, Beysehir, and Cappadocia, and you will get that. I liked the eklekmek, too
We were there 1988 with a Sufi master and the tumata healing music. Came from Urfa, Abrahams birth place. What a country it was then. So friendly and open.
Ye biiiiiig message ye COME, WHOEVER YOU ARE, COME! "Come, come again, whoever you are, come! Heathen, fire worshipper or idolatrous, come! Come even if you broke your penitence a hundred times, Ours is the portal of hope, come as you are." Ok ok this does not belong to rumi Come Come Whatever You Are Come Again, a poem commonly attributed to Rumi but alleged to belong to Abu Said-i Ebu'l-Hayr. It is thought that it coincides with the philosophy of Celaleddin Rumi and is attributed to him because he was the most important poet of his period.
To all people saying Rumi was Persian, I do not think he really cared about ethnicity he is a man we could call a “world citizen” today. On the other hand, he lived and died in Konya. Rumi is a richness Turkey developed and protected till today. He bloomed in Turkey. It is nonsense to try to make people convince he is Persian just because he had Persian roots. Create your own richness. We protected his legacy for 8 hundred years and we will for another 8 hundred years while you add some funny youtube comments and destroying everything that gives flowers in your own country.
@@mamouta5376 Mevlana is of Turkish descent. Mevlana is clearly descended from Harzemşah. His grandmother is the Sultan of Harzemshah. At that time, in the geography from Pakistan to Anatolia, the language of literature was Persian and the language of science was Arabic.
I know that Mevlana was born in the city of balkh in the present day Afghanistan. His ethnicity is Persisn and his books are mostly in Persian but after Mongols invaded Persia he migrated to the other side of the empire which is the present day Turkey. Mevlana is really respected in Iran and his name and poems are even taught in Persian schools.
rumi outsider look the great Sufi saint but inside their hearts omg unlimited universes is dance ,there many Sufi saint in India ,but I hugly love mewlana rumi
@Antromoji Most Afghans claim Rumi to be from Afghanistan due to what you just said now. At one point most of these empires crossed one another. Afghan ethnicity are Pashtoons, Tajiks, Hazaras, and Uzbecks. So you have a point. As for Persians, I am always confused with the idea of being a Persian. Awhile back, an Afghan said to an Iranian that he's Persian, the Iranian said "No you are not", you are Afghan. So the Afghan person was shocked. However, when there are legends like Rumi or any intellectual, the Persians claim them to be theirs even if they're Afghan or of Turk.
Rumi and his philosophy influenced my life and changed me to a better version of myself. I am a Persian, and if someone asks me about my pride, I refer them to my Grand Master Molana Jalal Al-Din Mohammad Balkhi. I am thankful to Turkiye for keeping the grave of our pride nice, clean, and amazing. ❤
Firstly I studied at selcuk university and Lived about 5 years. To be honest you gave me more imformation than konya's public and what is about konya.Thanks for sharing this video. Lastly, mevlana lived at konya but He just is not belong here.Cause mevlana is universal person.
thank you ! so beautiful video ____ plz tell us about Gurji Khatuni in Konya _the princess from Georgia __13 years old girl who was married to 17 years old prince ( was made a coin by her face...)

@@ramangathania5476 I'm not Turkish but I've been to Turkey twice and visited a lot of cities. Yes, Konya is religious compared to Istanbul and Izmir or Antalya. But you can see women not wearing hijabs.
is Mesut Özil turkish or German ? Who educated him ? Mevlana become big and important here in Turkish Seldjuk Empire and Not in Afghanistan or Iran ! He was Türk Like Özil is German.
Mesut Ozil is ethnically Turkish, with roots from Karadeniz. His grandparents immigrated as part of the Gastarbeitern (guest workers)....Mevlana was ethnically Persian, even though he moved to Seljuk Konya.
Mulana is from the Persian empire, His Language is Persian, Where ever he lived it does not matter, He is still Persian and ALL HIS WORK IS IN THE PERSIAN LANGUAGE

Rick is braver than I am. Our government's feckless foreign policy has made me too afraid to travel to any country in the Middle East or near Middle East.
bradwatson7324 Well, the Turks did a brave thing this past weekend and dealt a blow to the Islamist agenda of Erdogan. Good for them. They are good people.
+bradwatson7324 I never had any trouble as an American in Turkey, and I spent a lot of time there (accumulative five months across three summers) throughout the country. It is much safer than even where I live or much of our own country. And I even went there immediately after the coup (which was blamed on the U.S.), yet people I met and talked with never treated me differently for being American. Most people know the difference between the people of a country compared to the policies of a government.
My biggest rule model mawlana jalal adeen muhammed balkhi rumi اي بسي هندو و ترك همزبان اي بسي دو ترك چون بيگانگان پس زبان محرمي خود دگرست همدلي از همزباني بهتر هست
That is what i said. He was Persian living in Afghanistan in origin then immigrated to Seljuk Empire and trianed by Tabrizi and became who he was in the end.
Sepehr Abbasi he was from Balkh Afghanistan. His own name was Mohammad, Jalaluddin was his nick name. He was a decent of Sayedena Abu Bakar (Radhiallahu Anhu).

Its distorted version of Sufism being presented by this Worldly people
I am from Afghanistan birth place of mawlana jalal adeen muhammed balkhi rumi I want to visit konya
Language, music, architecture , dress and language is 🇮🇷 IRAN &Persian
I accept it that the people from Turkey loves Mevlana. But he is not from Turkey rather he was born in Balkh, Afghanistan.
Knowing about the city of Konya from the book of The Forty Rules of Love I hardly want to visit the city.
Do you recommend this book? I've always wanted to read it
আপনে কি বাঙালি ?
You see, travel vloggers? This is how you do a video. Make it about the place, not about yourself.
Sufism is best
Konya is like iran
Even worse
It totally reminded me of Iran.
Little afganistan in turkey
Molana is form Afghanistan 🇦🇫🇦🇫🤲🙏
No , Afghanistan didn’t even exist . Seljuk empire conquered all those places
Ammberigganın oyunları yeğenim bunlar
Mevlana was from Balkh-Afghanistan
Hahaha you say konya is conservative!? Well you guys probably never seen pakistan..
We are speaking about turkey not pakistan lol konya is very religious compared to Istanbul izmir
Not mevlana mevlana is god name we people no god name this is celaleddin rumi not mevlana

rumi has iranian poet and he hasent turkis poet
He was born in Afghanistan and immigrated to Konya, Seljuk Empire after wandering some Islamic schools. And He met his mentor, Shams Tabrizi in Konya.
Mehmet Yok _its true but balkh was for Iran . and the people of Balkh spoke Persian!
That is what i said. He was Persian living in Afghanistan in origin then immigrated to Seljuk Empire and trianed by Tabrizi and became who he was in the end.
Mehmet Yok - yes.I think it isn't important that mevlana was from Iran or another country mevlana was one of the best poets in the world !
