This is shaheed Adnan Menderes. He was the 9th prime minister of Türkiye who was executed in 1961 for changing the Azan back to Arabic, reopening thousands of mosques across the country which had been closed down during Mustafa Kemals era, and advocating for the return of the Caliphate. He put an end to religious restrictions, hence he was a threat to the secular ideology, so they blamed him for using religion as a tool for political gain. Following a military coup, the government was deposed and he was arrested along with all his party members.
In his last public speech before his death, he said: ❝The Turkish people are Muslim and they shall remain Muslim. For them to remain Muslim forever, they must, without question, ensure that Islamic principles and rules are taught so present and future generations can be encouraged towards the faith❞
Mufti of the four Madhabs, Shaykh Ali Haydar Effendi said: ❝Even if you collect all that I did in the way of Allah, it won't correspond to that one deed of Adnan Menderes, where he changed the Azan from turkish to Arabic❞.
The Azan stayed Arabic since it was enshrined into the law, and he paid the price with his life. May Allah reward him with the highest place in Jannah for the sacrifices he made for Islam.
