Now that the Turkish public are no longer being deceived by the lies of evolution, awareness of religion is increasingly on the rise. Turkey is the first country in the world to turn its back on belief in evolution, which is based on unscientific falsehood. Thanks to this information in its possession, the Turkish nation is scrupulous when it comes to performing its religious obligations to our Creator, Almighty Allah.

In the month of Ramadan, all Muslims in Turkey act like a single body in performing their fasting obligations and give thanks to our Lord for His blessings. Fasting in a manner that Allah will approve of is a sign of profound faith, fear of Allah, devotion and sincerity.

According to a public opinion by Konda, published in the Turkish daily Milliyet, 82.5% of people in Turkey fast on a regular basis, and the level of those performing the prayer regularly stands at 43.9%. The study indicated that the most regularly performed observances are fasting and attending the Friday prayer. The level of those regularly attending the Friday prayer stands at 56.1%, with 75.2% praying regularly, 24.4 regularly attending mosques/places of worship, and 26.3% regularly reading the Qur’an.

The level of atheists in Turkey was put at 0.9%. The great majority of the Turkish public, 86.1%, describe themselves as “believers” and “religious.”
