Speaking at the 1st Term Candidate Religious Officials Graduation Ceremony of the Presidency of Religious Affairs Academy, AKP Chairman and President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's remarks on 'Sharia' drew attention.

"THERE IS HOSTILITY TOWARD SHARIA"

"There is a hostility toward Sharia staged under different masks. Hostility toward Sharia, which represents the entirety of Islam's rules regarding life, is in essence hostility toward the religion itself," said Erdoğan, adding, "Whether to believe or not, whether to live by it or not, is of course a matter of choice. But speaking ill of the religion's commandments is a different matter."

Democratic Republic: 26.7

Islamic Republic: 19.2

Monarchy: 3.0
