Ertugrul Ghazi: A Very Short Biography (Impactful Lives)
- For the first time in English by the author of Peace and Conflict Resolution in Islam comes the biography of a forgotten Anatolian hero. The story of the obscure figure of Ertugrul Ghazi and his tribe came to life for most people with the popular Turkish TV series 'Resurrection: Ertugrul.' Now, for the first time in the English language, Flamur Vehapi offers a scholarly insight into the historical persona of Ertugrul, the father of Osman I (founder of the Ottoman dynasty). Separating facts from fiction, this brief work provides the reader with a concise biography of this legendary Turkic leader and the Kayi tribe who gave rise to a global empire. This work is a significant piece of research, and the author's deep study of both Turkish and Western sources gives the reader a balanced account on Ertugrul and his tribe. The book contains appendices, a detailed historical timeline, a family tree, as well as a glossary of terms, and biographical information.Review"Ertugrul Ghazi is a looming figure in Turkish and Islamic history. The more we learn of his life and accomplishments the more we appreciate what he has achieved but more importantly the strength of his character and convictions. We are inspired through Ertugrul's example to fight for our and our community's well-being, honor, and highest aspirations while always steadfastly maintaining our moral compass. This well researched, short, yet succinct biography does just that. Turkish Bork hats off to Flamur. Today he has raised the Kayi flag just a little higher." Brandon Mayfield, author of Improbable Cause "At last someone has resurrected the long-forgotten life story of the person who gave rise to a global empire...A refreshing and captivating account." Prof. Dr. Naser Bresa, author of Retrospektiva"Flamurs critical work on the life of Ertugrul depicts the spirit of the man who paved the way for the rise of the House of Osman. It tells the true story of a hero and his tribe that embodied elements of great character based on unshakable faith and bravery...It is an inspiring account for all generations to come." Imam Burhan Al Din Fili, author of Hope is Alive"The Turkish drama about Ertugrul Ghazi has been popular globally for several years, but most viewers do not know about this great warrior's life and personality. This short biography beautifully fills that void." Prof. Dr. Amber Haque, co-author of Psychology of Personality"Many of us who enjoy a good book are making the best of these troubling times by venturing further afield to find gems in the form of written words. And few sparkle more than Ertugrul Ghazi: A Very Short Biography by Flamur Vehapi, an excellent researcher and writer. Vehapi takes readers on a fascinating trip into 13th century Turkey where Ertugrul was an important tribal leader and father of Osman, founder of the Ottoman empire. It is an interesting read that broadens your historical horizons." Paul Fattig, author of Madstone"It was an absolute delight to watch the 448 episodes [of Resurrection] about the life and legacy of Ertugrul. The hundreds of hours we spent viewing the series was a great bonding and empowering experience for our family. The millions of people who enjoyed and seemed addicted to the drama did so because the characters of the show resonated with their core values, especially the pursuit of justice and mercy. Next to the example of our beloved Prophet Muhammad pbuh, the prophets, and the righteous companions, Ertugrul is another historical figure worth knowing...Flamur continues to impress me with his search for beauty around the world and throughout history, and I am glad he helped us resurrect the story of Ertugrul." Dr. Omar Reda, author of On the Shoulders of the Prophet
