The Turks argue that our political thinking requires that we be guided by our political experience

Concerning the birth of Islam, I am sure that I will now be able to prove to your consolation that it is also the birth of inductive reason. In Islam, since prophecy has reached its completion, The need arose. Behind this was the insightful realization that human beings could not always be run on crutches. In order to attain full self-consciousness, it was necessary to be left alone to use one's own resources.
