With greetings... When a society loses the human qualities that sustain it and the values it is attached to, it begins to cling to material assets such as property, possessions, and money; it begins to measure everything in terms of money. It endlessly scrutinizes the quantity, not the quality, of things and events. Life turns into a pile of statistics. Due to material ambitions, it becomes unrecognizable to any rule or measure. If the legal and administrative system to which the society is subject also supports this understanding, the corruption becomes very difficult to correct. As one of the main reasons for the downhill slide of individuals and societies in our country and across the world, we have addressed the "reputable person type of the 21st century" on our cover to draw attention to the order where money is the sole source of reputation. The 12th issue of the monthly Baran magazine has been released. Ömer Emre Akcebe covered our cover subject in his article titled "The Same Dead End to Which Every 'Permissible' Path Leading to Money Leads." The title of the 3rd part of Melih Oktay's article on the issue of interest is "The Inconsistency of Economists - Interest Crises"... M. Taha İnci touches on human crises in his article titled "Crisis, Aimlessness, and the Longing for the Beyond," examining how a person falls into aimlessness due to the failure to form a sense of duty contrary to religion. Bahattin Yeşiloğlu, in his article titled "Understanding Addressed to Islam," compiles the measures to be addressed on the plane of kalam found in the Sufi work Risalah al-Qushayri. Nazım Erol explains in his article titled "Language and Dialectic" that the most fundamental element of being a nation is language and that we lost our language with the alphabet revolution. Kâzım Albay touches on kalam topics in Mirzabeyoğlu's works in his article titled "Kalam Discussions in Salih Mirzabeyoğlu's Works" and briefly illustrates his handling of today's issues as a contemporary thinker. Amine Betül Kavin, in her article titled "Worldly Life Is Not a Small Matter," reminds humankind, who is caught up in the course of worldly life, to slow down a little and take a look at themselves. While the destruction caused by the virtual world in human relations is increasing day by day, coming together under an intellectual roof has become quite valuable. In such an atmosphere, we talked with Mehmet Ali Bayram, President of the Great East Raiders Association (BDA), which was opened, about the establishment process of the association.
