"At Topkapi Palace, the seat of Ottoman power for four centuries, history lives in the details. Among the towering gates, jewel-encrusted thrones, and ornate tilework, there are tiny doors cut into the stone — no taller than a man's hand.
They were not for servants. They were not for children.
They were for cats.
"For centuries, the sultans of the Ottoman Empire kept cats in the palace to control rodents that threatened manuscripts, food stores, and silk fabrics. The miniature doors allowed the palace's feline residents to move between chambers without waiting for a human to open the heavy wooden doors."

No Im using authentic sources 🤣, you keep saying cooked like you did something, did I ever say p52 wasn’t small fragment. Topkapi is paleographically mid 8th century per scholars.

Thank you for running to his defense and still being False. The Topkapi complete Quran’ is mid-8th century over 100 years after Muhammad died in 632 AD, not within a 100 years, Birmingham fragments are tiny scraps parts of 2 Surahs not a full manuscript from the Prophets time. Early Qurans show variants and missing diacritics. Compared to the New Testament p52 is small but from 125 AD within decades of John’s Gospel. We have dozens of 2nd 4th century papyri, complete 4th century codices aka Sinaiticus, Vaticanus. The NT was written by eyewitnesses who died for their testimony that Jesus rose from the dead, heres a question for you why did uthman burn variants? And how can he commission something the prophet did not permit.

Mustafa III’s tragic 1768 war with Russia overshadowed his internal reforms.
His magnificent ceremonial armor, crafted from iron chainmail and steel plate, is lavishly inlaid with gold and encrusted with diamonds, rubies, and jade.
Today, this breathtaking symbol of 18th-century Ottoman craftsmanship is preserved in Istanbul's Topkapi Palace.
