Stripping away what? Having a secular political system doesn't strip away religion, where do you gather such extreme views from? Turkey is the Muslim country that has more mosques than any other Muslim country on earth (including Iran which is a theocracy) and religion is more open and free than anywhere else in the Muslim world. With the secular political system we do not have rivaling religious branches blowing up eachothers mosques, is that a bad thing? We keep religion out of politics, which is in principal very good since politicians lie for 90% of what they say, imagine religion was made a tool for all the lies the politicians are producing and poluting this way the religion.
Stop bringing in Muslims blowing other Muslims in your arguments just to justify that Secular is a perfect solution for Muslim world.
I hope you know the term Secular? Religion is striped away from the authority of the State and you are saying it is perfectly fine? Prove it to me from Quran and Hadis that indeed its okay for Muslims to strip away religion from their states matters. Of course Secularism allows every citizen to practice its faith but at home, or mosque only but not at state level. This is a very weak form of Islam which Muslims are pursuing and again, the Verse and the Hadis I quoted perfectly defines that.
Even if Turkey has more mosque still does not mean anything significant in terms of sovereignty of the state. India has more Muslims and more mosque then UAE Qatar and Bahrain combined so does that makes them more of a Muslim State?
Turkey is enjoying worldly pleasure because once upon a time that region (Ottoman Empire) use to be a super power and Secular West made sure that Muslims of that region dont stand up on their feet ever again so they gave Turkey their own platform to stand up on. Turkey is pretty much like any other western state except Turkey has more Muslims. And neither I expect any so called Muslim state to be following Islam perfectly since we are in the time of Jahiliyyah which is described in Quran and Hadis.
