In this sequel to The Prisoner of Al-Hakim, Alhasan Ibn al-Haytham—mathematician, astronomer, and physicist of the Islamic Golden Age—continues his lifelong pursuit of knowledge, embarking on a daring journey with a new purpose. What begins with his curiosity about the green streaks that light up the sky leads him to The Empty Quarter in search of the fabled Crystal Oasis. Guided by Qur’anic verses and his relentless curiosity, Alhasan believes the site may hold the remnants of a fallen star.

While Alhasan chases after celestial mysteries and seeks the iron hidden in the earth, Sadeem, his newlywed wife, undertakes a journey of her own. Summoned by Governor Jalal al-Dawla, she introduces him to her husband’s groundbreaking discoveries about light and vision.

The Empty Quarter takes readers on two parallel adventures—one into the vast desert sands, the other into the halls of power. Both are filled with challenges, revelations, and the unyielding spirit of discovery that defined one of history’s greatest scientific minds.

Between Thought and Action: An Intellectual Biography of Fethullah Gulen

This volume has two goals. One is to explore the life and the thought of Fethullah Gülen and the important educational and peace-inducing activities in which he and those inspired by him have been engaged for several decades. The outcome of those efforts—of creating schools and providing diverse social and cultural services that bring people together people from diverse backgrounds—has been to provide the face of civic and civil Islam as an antidote to the uglier side of political Islam. The second goal has been to make clear how the accusations against Mr. Gülen by the minions of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan could hardly be more false: that what Gülen and the Hizmet (service) movement that he has inspired are ultimately about is improving the world and saving it form its uglier inclinations. A brief discussion of his life and thought has been supplemented by the voices of more than 70 interviews conducted over several years, with individuals intimate and more distant but all inspired to be part of the process of serving humanity.

Erdogan’s Civil Death Project by James C. Harrington & Coskun Yorulmaz

Toward the end of the last century, the Hizmet Movement emerged in Turkish society as a major proponent of civil society. “Hizmet,” also known as the Gülen Movement after its spiritual teacher Fethullah Gülen, achieved prominent recognition for its educational and multicultural work in Türkiye and elsewhere in the world.

Hizmet, with its broad spiritual base, entrepreneurial prowess, moral compass, savvy media use, community service (schools, hospitals, and humanitarian work), and global reach, posed a political and social challenge to the Erdoğan regime’s growing autocracy and evermore evident corruption. Erdoğan came to view Hizmet as his nemesis that roadblocked his march toward authoritarian rule.

Peace and Dialogue in a Plural Society

In a world that is too often seen as a “clash of civilizations,” some believe there is another way—a path that involves engagement, dialogue, and respect. In Thomas Michel’s new book, Peace and Dialogue in a Plural Society, he explores how Fethullah Gulen is one of those speaking most vocally in favor of a world community, where different faiths and nations can come together at one table to solve the multitude of problems facing today’s world. Exploring the spiritual roots of Gulen and the Hizmet Movement, as well as drawing parallels between his own work as a Catholic priest, Michel shows how Hizmet has helped build a blueprint for intercultural communication in a time when too many voices are trying to stoke the fires of discord. Through education, dialogue, and a respect for basic human dignity, Michel finds a foundation in Gulen’s faith and Hizmet’s service upon which a healthy, diverse society can be built.

Predestination & Free Will: A Comparative Theological Study
This book is based on an examination and analysis of the theological arguments proposed by mainstream Islamic theologians and Fethullah Gülen, a contemporary Muslim scholar, and his theoretical framework on the reconciliation of predestination and free will. The methodology of this project includes comparative and detailed analysis of arguments put forward by formative, classical and contemporary Islamic scholars and examination of arguments proposed by Western theologians and philosophers.

Erdogan’s Civil Death Project
Toward the end of the last century, the Hizmet Movement emerged in Turkish society as a major proponent of civil society. “Hizmet,” also known as the Gülen Movement after its spiritual teacher Fethullah Gülen, achieved prominent recognition for its educational and multicultural work in Türkiye and elsewhere in the world.



Hizmet, with its broad spiritual base, entrepreneurial prowess, moral compass, savvy media use, community service (schools, hospitals, and humanitarian work), and global reach, posed a political and social challenge to the Erdoğan regime’s growing autocracy and evermore evident corruption. Erdoğan came to view Hizmet as his nemesis that roadblocked his march toward authoritarian rule.



Because Hizmet called into question their unethical values and anti-democratic maneuvers, Erdoğan and AKP moved to isolate, denigrate, marginalize, dismantle, and suppress Hizmet. This included oppressing anyone opposing the government as associated with the “Movement,” even if they were not, as a way of being rid of them, too. Following the shadowy 2016 coup attempt, the government radically escalated its systemic oppression with mass arrests and detentions, initiating a lawless process that suppressed fundamental human rights like freedom, security, and the right to a fair trial as state policy, sidelining international law and Türkiye’s internal law.

This book makes the case for a regime politicide project against Hizmet in violation of both international law and Turkish law.

Erdogan’s Civil Death Project

📘 New Release from Blue Dome Press! 🌍

✨ Toward the end of the last century, the Hizmet Movement emerged in Turkish society as a major proponent of civil society.

Known as the Gülen Movement, inspired by spiritual teacher Fethullah Gülen, Hizmet gained global recognition for its educational 🌐, humanitarian ❤️, and intercultural 🤝 efforts across the world.

But as its commitment to democracy, morality, and civic engagement grew, the Erdoğan regime saw Hizmet as a threat ⚠️—a movement that challenged its authoritarian ambitions.

After the 2016 coup attempt, the government launched an unprecedented campaign of repression 🚔, silencing dissent, imprisoning thousands, and violating fundamental human rights.

📚 This powerful volume argues that what unfolded was not merely political persecution—but a regime politicide project against Hizmet, breaching both Turkish and international law.

💬 Praise for the Book

“This volume’s insightful brilliance and careful thoroughness together offer a key instrument with which the outside world can better understand the simple and complex horrors associated with Erdoğan’s despotic regime.”
