Sultanahmet Square also saw yesterday. I have been living in a street that has opened for 35 years. My home is 302 steps from Sultanahmet Mosque and 308 steps from Hagia Sophia. There are 28 years of worship in Hagia Sophia Mosque, 5 times prayer prayer is read from their minarets, and the prayer goes to those who want. Even the most eye-catching black writer of the Islamist segment Mehmet Sevket Eygi before he was late, he would sit on this street and “They read the adhan very badly” He would even complain to me, as if something I could do, would often write in his newspaper corner. The imam of the Hagia Sophia Mosque is also a calm, benign person, sits in our Cankurtaran District, greets with the ISPARK officials during the morning prayer return, I watch them from the window of the house.
Every day is the same.
Every morning, Sultanahmet and Hagia Sophia square pass by walking across the metro station. Cigdem Patisseriea rye bagel and newsstand from Atilla ‘I take my newspapers from and return to my home. A security circle was created here, unprecedented five days ago. The police barriers closed the square in front of the historic Hagia Sophia, which was monolithic on a 10-decare land. Young male and female police officers, soldiers with hand guns were stacked. The pool of the square was cleaned, packed, its flowers and grass were removed, and new ones were planted in its place. The ground floor was washed every day. Only two points of entry and exit permits were given to the public and the residents by calling the top. Over “Yiğitoğlu Crane ” dump truck cranes written right across Hagia Sophia Sultan Kanuni‘s wife Hurrem SultanThey erected the square of the bath, which was constructed, to exceed the height of the dome reaching 100 meters, not four or four sides of the square, and shook the loudspeakers that looked like a knuckle black animal body like crocodile belly from the crane ends. They connected the speaker cables to the microphone in which Quran recitation, hatim and times were read inside the mosque. TV broadcast vans came and lined up right across Hagia Sophia, cameramen and reporters began to wait for the opening of the Friday prayer.
Five days passed like this.

As if the police “Nika Rebellion Will Explode, They Will Burn Hagia Sophia” he had received the notice.
Do you know the Nika Rebellion!
It writes in history: Emperor Justinianuswas an illiterate ignorant person. But he was very clever. He used the influence of religion and sect on the masses very well. His wife Queen Theodora She was the beautifully functioning daughter of a bear-sitter, and her husband was smarter and braver than the emperor. The hippodrome, which lies in front of Hagia Sophia, was the center of entertainment, culture, religion and political life of the people of Istanbul at that time. Gladiators and animal fights, auto racing, insane entertainment and political debates would be on the racetrack. People politically “Blue and Red- Green and White” it was divided into colors. The colors were divided between the two political parties. Green and red were supported by the Mofist sect, and blue and white were supported by the Orthodox. They were sometimes divided into anger that could become hostile to each other’s death. The blue was ruled by aristocrats and the green by traders and tradesmen. Emperor Justinianus Orthodox was his wife, Queen Theodora Mofist. Husband and wife exploited religion and managed both sides.
The country was poorly managed.
Poverty, poverty!
People were impoverished.
On a cold day in January 532, the Blues and Greens gave up fighting and fighting each other and united against the emperor and the queen. “Nika… Nika… Nika…” he shouted; “Long live the Greens and the Blues who protect the poor…. ” they rallied to the Imperial Palace, raising the slogan.
Nika meant victory.
They burned Hagia Sophia.
This was the Nika Rebellion.
The revolt was suppressed by the courage of Queen Thedora, the daughter of the bear caretaker, and Emperor Justinianus rebuilt today’s Hagia Sophia. In the opening speech “Solomon passed you …” He boasted and declared himself the eldest.
What was the world up to Solomon?
Ne of Justinianus’a …

Yesterday the old Hippodrome, as if today’s Sultanahmet Square “The Nika Revolt would explodeHe had a day under extraordinary police and soldier protection. Under this protection, Friday prayers were performed. The elders of the country performed and opened Friday prayers for the imported steel shoots of the illegal hotel built on the historical place where the old Ottoman Palace Nakkaşhanesi was located at the foot of Hagia Sophia. This fugitive hotel is the President’s school friend from Imam Hatip, “Having those ugly towers ruining the Istanbul skyline” the person had sewn. The local court and the upper court “He decided to fall down because he was a fugitive” Although it had not been demolished for 10 years, it remained in this historical place as a half-building carcass.
Force the prayer!
