In Turkey there are “Sunni” and “Alevi” sects. However, majority of the Muslim population is Sunni. Their belief is that Prophet Mohammed is the messenger of Allah. Besides abiding by the rules of The Koran they try to live according to Mohammed's sayings, or Hadis as they are called. Worship takes place in mosques and there are separate sections for men and women within these mosques. All prayers are in Arabic. This is a subject that still fuels debate and arguments in Turkish public opinion. In Islam the consumption of alcohol is forbidden. In Turkey however, Islam is practiced in a more moderate way and whether or not you drink alcohol will depend to a large extent on the practice in your family.
Turkey is a republic based on secular, democratic, and pluralistic principles and religious law (Sharia) is not practiced or enforced in Turkey. However there is a great increase in veiled women and bearded and scull-capped men which is an indication of radical Islam movement in Turkey. Sunni Muslims celebrate Ramazan, Şeker Bayramı (after Ramazan), Kurban Bayramı the end of “Haj” period, and 5 Kandils on various dates in throughout the year. Alevi sects believe that Ali, the son-in-law of Prophet Mohammed, should have become the next Caliph (religious leader). Turkish Alevi Muslims should not be compared with “Shite” sect found in Iran, Lebanon etc., for Turkish Alevis strongly believe in “Bektashism”, a kind of “Shamanism” prevalent in Anatolia. They pray in Turkish, not in Arabic. They do not go to mosques; instead they have Cem Evi where women and men worship all together. They have no prohibition for wine and alcoholic beverages. Their fast is not during the holy month Ramazan but on another lunar month Muharrem and lasts for 15 days. Muharrem is alsoAşure time for both Sunnis and Alevis. The most important Alevi festival is Nevruz, which celebrates the beginning of spring. Alevis tend to be more open-minded and do not veil themselves as Sunnis. They continue to, contribute to the secular and democratic mission of the country.
