A CALL FOR A TURKISH-ISLAMIC UNION

Hungry and poor people need every kind of help.

The Turkish Islamic Union must find solutions for the

Muslim nations as well as for all people seeking peace and se-
curity. Each nation has its own political, demographic, and
economic problems, and different regions have their own re-
gional problems too. Although each of these problems re-
quires different solutions and measures, the fundamental
problems and their solutions are everywhere the same. Much
suffering and trouble is caused by the fact that the Qur'an's
morality is not practiced as it should be, which means that the
required solutions are not devised according to its guidance.

If just and realistic solutions are to be reached, such qualities
as open-mindedness, flexibility, and free thinking, together
with honesty, devotion, justice, and helpfulness, all of which
are derived from the Qur'an's morality must guide the Mus-
lims.
