The Great Umayyad Mosque in Damascus is a pearl of the Muslim world, where legendary scholars like Al-Ghazali, Ibn Taymiyyah, and Ibn Arabi once resided. A beacon of Islamic learning and spiritual heritage.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
“Verily, the evil eye might attach itself to a man by permission of Allah, until he climbs a tall mountain and then throws himself off it.”

Just to clarify: the inscription itself does not contain the hadith. I included that narration in my post to highlight the immense virtue and status of Sayyiduna Umar ibn al-Khattab (رضي الله عنه). The inscription and the hadith are separate and should not be confused.

When people think of Ottoman naval power, they think of Sultan Suleiman and Hayreddin Barbarossa. Yet much of that success rested on foundations built by Sultan Bayezid II decades earlier.
Under Bayezid II, Ottoman victories at Zonchio (1499) and Modon (1500) weakened Venetian naval supremacy and helped establish the Ottomans as a dominant Mediterranean power.
In 1492, Bayezid II welcomed and transported Muslim and Jewish refugees expelled from Spain, granting them safety and settlement in Ottoman lands.
What makes Bayezid II particularly remarkable is that he was known not only for statecraft but for personal piety. Ottoman chroniclers describe him as devoted to prayer, Qur'an recitation, religious scholarship, and charitable works. He built mosques, madrasas, hospitals, and public kitchens, lived modestly despite his imperial status, and earned the honorific Bayezid-ı Veli ("Bayezid the Saintly").
After decades at the helm of a vast empire, he abdicated and, according to Ottoman tradition, intended to spend the rest of his life in worship and reflection. He died soon afterward while on the journey.

Learn from Abbas!
This sweet child cried with genuine pain upon seeing a torn page in his Qur'an. He hugged it close and spoke to it as one would to a beloved in sorrow.
