Happy Mother’s Day

Across every culture, a mother’s love carries the same quiet strength.
Protection, sacrifice, tenderness and an unspoken bond that begins from the very first breath.

This moment from Ethiopia has always stayed with me… the gentle glance of a child held close to his mother, safe within her world.

To all mothers everywhere

Palestinian photographer Saher Alghorra has won the 2026 Pulitzer Prize for breaking news photography, recognised for his work with The New York Times documenting life and loss in Palestine’s Gaza amid Israeli genocide.

Described by Pulitzer administrator Marjorie Miller as “haunting” and “sensitive”, his images strip everything back to the bone, exposing the slow violence of starvation and the enduring scars of Israeli bombardment since October 2023.

Türkiye’de kargo pazarının lideri kim?
2025 itibarıyla kargo sektöründe pazar payı dağılımı belirgin şekilde değişti.
Köklü yerli firmaların ağırlıkta olduğu yapı, son yıllarda farklı bir dengeye evrildi.

Bilgi Teknolojileri ve İletişim Kurumu (BTK) verilerine göre 2025 kargo pazarı payları:

• Trendyol Ekspress – %29,87
• Aras Kargo – %12,39
• Yurtiçi Kargo – %11,92
• MNG Kargo – %9,91
• D Fast – %8,50
• PTT Kargo – %7,23
• Port Kargo – %6,94
• Kolay Gelsin – %4,52
• Diğer – %8,72

Bu tablo sonrası sektör içinde şu başlık öne çıkıyor:
Yerli kargo şirketleri neye itiraz ediyor?

E-ticaret platformları, operasyonlarında ağırlıklı olarak
dağıtım başına çalışan kuryelerle ilerleyen bir model kullanıyor.
Geleneksel kargo şirketleri ise aynı esnekliği sınırlı ölçekte uygulayabiliyor.
KARİD (Kargo İşletmecileri Derneği) yetkililerine göre,
pandemi döneminde getirilen geçici esnekliklerin kalıcı hale gelmesi, rekabet dengesini bozdu.
Bu nedenle sektörde, taraflar arasında dengeleyici bir regülasyon ihtiyacı dile getiriliyor.

Endüstrilerin dönüşümünü..

From the plush, caramel-rich Medjool of Morocco to the firm, nutty Deglet Noor of Algeria and the dark, “holy” Ajwa of Medina, the Middle East and North Africa offer hundreds of distinct date types that vary wildly in taste and texture. From syrupy and soft to dry and bread-like, each serving a specific purpose whether enjoyed as a fresh snack, a natural sweetener in baking, or a traditional gift. More than just a superfruit, dates are a vital cultural cornerstone and a “desert staple” that have provided essential nutrition, hospitality, and spiritual significance to the region for millennia.

Ramadan is so close. May Allah allow Us to reach it in good health

Thousands of people gathered on Istanbul’s Galata Bridge to demonstrate solidarity with the Palestinian people.

The protest came as Gaza faces a deepening humanitarian crisis, with most of its healthcare system destroyed and families exposed to cold weather and flooding.

Despite an October ceasefire, conditions remain dire and aid deliveries have fallen far short of agreed levels due to Israeli restrictions.

Hamidiye Camii in Kırşehir, Turkiye, is a truly unique mosque unlike any other. Its interior features a ceiling painted like the sky and a carpet resembling grass, inspired by Qur’an 2:22, which describes the earth as a dwelling and the sky as a canopy.

Designed by an Azerbaijani architect, the mosque draws visitors from around the world for prayer, reflection, and admiration. Its wooden minbar is crafted to resemble tree trunks, blending naturally with the overall theme. Originally built in the 1910s during the Ottoman era and named after Sultan Abdülhamid II, the mosque later fell into disrepair, was demolished, and rebuilt in 2016.

With its sky-and-garden imagery, Hamidiye Camii is often said to evoke the gardens of Paradise, making it a serene place for contemplation and worship.

Osmanlı, Safevi ve Babür İmparatorlukları:
1600’lerin Ekonomik Devleri

17. yüzyılda, üç büyük Türkî imparatorluk — Osmanlı Halifeliği, Safevi İmparatorluğu ve Babür Sultanlığı — Orta Doğu ve Güney Asya’nın geniş bölgelerine hükmediyordu. Her biri kültür, siyaset ve ticaretin birer gücüydü. Ancak saf ekonomik güç bakımından Babür İmparatorluğu diğerlerinin üzerinde yer alıyordu; 1990 uluslararası dolar cinsinden tahmini 74,3 milyar dolarlık bir GSYİH’ya sahipti.

Bu karşılaştırma, bu imparatorlukların yalnızca kendi bölgelerini değil, aynı zamanda erken modern dünyadaki küresel ticareti, güç dengelerini ve servet akışını nasıl şekillendirdiklerine de ışık tutmaktadır.

Ottoman & Safavid & Mughal Empires :
The Economic Titans of the 1600s

In the 17th century, three great Turkic empires ruled vast regions across the Middle East and South Asia - the Ottoman Caliphate, the Safavid Empire, and the Mughal (Babur) Sultanate. Each was a powerhouse of culture, politics, and commerce. But when it came to sheer economic strength, the Mughal (Babur) Empire stood above the rest, boasting an estimated GDP of $74.3 billion (in 1990 international dollars).

This comparison sheds light on how these empires not only defined their regions but also shaped global trade, power dynamics, and the flow of wealth in the early modern world.
