Hizmet Movement blog now available in Portuguese and Arabic


Date posted: March 14, 2014

 

Committed to the mission to make the most up-to-date and accurate archive on Fethullah Gulen and the Hizmet Movement conveniently available to any inquiry, Hizmet Movement blog has taken yet another step towards reaching out to an even greater population. The blog page is now available in two additional languages, namely Portuguese and Arabic.

As the movement has aroused a considerably large interest among Portuguese and Arabic-speaking nations, so has the inquiry into its philosophy and operation. As expected, it has resulted in an inevitable need for convenient references which are currently available mainly in English and Turkish. In an effort to complement the ongoing research and its outcoming material, as well, the blog now takes on the challenge of fulfilling the need.

Both editions will follow the same pattern in content and organization like the long existing English and comparatively recent Chinese and Spanish editions. That is to say, originally English or Turkish texts will be handpicked, translated and published on a regular basis by a team of bilingual volunteers. Needless to say, the Portuguese and Arabic entries will meet subscribers and go viral via digest e-mails and individual Twitter accounts (@HizmetPortugues and @Hizmet_Arabiyah respectively). The ultimate goal in each recent edition is certainly to synch them up with the English one by steadily publishing new entries.

Once again, the blog affirms its appreciation for readers’ interest and feedback of any kind. You are more than welcome to join its efforts with your thoughts and comments in spreading the word to a greater audience.

A strong message for Erdogan

Gulen, who has been living in self-imposed exile in Pennsylvania since 1999, promotes a philosophy that comprises elements of moderate Islam and Sufi mysticism, free-market economics, and interfaith tolerance. That he has a wide following in Turkey (and elsewhere) is not in doubt. As for Erdogan, he can be an Islamist sultan or he can be the democratic leader of a trusted NATO ally. But he can’t be both, and the time has come to make him choose.

Turkey’s Erdogan exploiting failed coup to crush dissent, tighten grip on power

After a searing summer that has already featured a failed military coup, spectacular terrorist attacks and now a new war across the border in Syria, Turkey’s cultural elite is watching with increased unease as authoritarian President Recep Tayyip Erdogan rides a wave of nationalism that they fear will be used to brand his critics as enemies of the state.

An American’s journey into a Hizmet school in Turkey

One thing I haven’t mentioned is the fact that the school engages with the families of all its students, and that fact was evident in the way the students engaged with their teachers and each other. I have never seen a bunch of adolescent girls with such nice manners, warm self-confidence and eagerness to learn and succeed.

Crackdown in Turkey passes the point of no return

Turkey’s alliances with the US and EU are fraying badly. Above all, Mr Erdogan is moulding the country in his own image, with only a uniform message allowed. As one liberal intellectual puts it: “In the past you got arrested for what you said, but now you can be arrested for what you don’t say.”

Arınç says Gülen’s offer to hand over prep schools ‘sacrifice’

Turkish Deputy PM Bülent Arınç has described the offer of Turkish Islamic scholar Fethullah Gülen to hand over prep school management to the state an example of “sacrifice” and promised that the issue of prep schools will be resolved in a way that pleases everyone. “God knows that we don’t have an ambition to manage [these prep schools]; our desire is that these services don’t become the causalities of a disagreement,” Gülen reportedly said.
