Prime Minister Imran Khan directed to air the famous Turkish drama Ertugrul Ghazi on PTV. It is to be noted that Turkish dramas have been gaining popularity in Pakistan for some time now. After these dramas, Turkish dramas have spread in Pakistan.
Iftikhar Durrani, the special assistant to PM Imran Khan, tweeted on social networking site Twitter that the drama was being aired. This drama serial is based on the life of Tughral Ghazi, a great fighter in the history of Islam.
The play, also known as the Turkish Games of Thrones, is being staged in memory of a 13th-century hero, bringing the importance of the Ottoman Empire to the world.
Since this drama is becoming popular and well-known all over the world, including Pakistan, and its fans are increasing and increasing, there has been no shortage of opposition to this drama. On the contrary, the objections and criticisms of the lavish opponents have also been raised. While some liberal circles are suffering from this drama, some religious sections are also issuing fatwas against this drama. While some religious circles in Pakistan are issuing fatwas on the play, Turkey’s staunch political opponents, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Egypt, banned the play in February this year. Gone After which detailed fatwas have been issued by some scholars of these countries regarding this drama, so that the popularity of this drama can be reduced or eliminated. Egypt’s largest fatwa-issuing body, Dar al-Ifta ‘, issued a fatwa against Ertugrul, saying the drama should not be seen under any circumstances. It was not enough that the above fatwa also criticized Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and said that Tayyip Erdoانan wanted to restore the Ottoman Caliphate and occupy the Arab world. From these fatwas, it can be clearly inferred that the reason for the fatwa on this drama in the Arab countries is not religious, but explicitly political. In fact, these countries view the drama as anti-Arab and fear their popularity. That is why Egypt, Tunisia, and the United Arab Emirates, fed up with the results of the “Darrell Ertugl” so far, produced a play called “The Land of the Fire,” but unfortunately, it did not receive much attention. The theme of the play was the Ottoman and Mamluk battles for control of the Middle East.
In spite of all these tactics, it has been observed that even in the Arab countries, the popularity of the “Derelish Invasion” drama is increasing day by day instead of being opposed.
However, the scholars of Pakistan and the Islamic world who have a keen eye on contemporary atheism do not see this drama as merely a barrier to atheistic ideologies. On the contrary, they are calling it the first victory of Islam in media warfare.
The drama is a direct response to all Hollywood and Bollywood movies, dramas, serials, which have led to the spread of nudity, pornography, and lies in our society, and are still becoming and which Muslim youth almost sleep. I have been watching for years. This drama is just an alternative, which has centralized some of the values of Islam. It uses ancient Turkish poetry in the name of music and avoids dance altogether. War music and old tunes have been used in the beginning and when needed. The role of all Muslim men and women, whether in a positive or negative role, is presented in a Shariah-appropriate dress. Along with this, in this drama, bravery, justice, sticking to religion and principles even in difficult situations, maintaining a limit even in love and romance, respecting elders, gaining closeness to scholars and people of God, their value Things like doing and taking one’s heart from the Qur’an and Sira of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and taking guidance even in difficult situations have been filmed in the best way.
