"Is Turkey's Government Starting a Muslim Reformation?
By Daniel Pipes
[ARAB COUNTRIES] Accounts from Turkey suggest that the government is attempting a bold re-interpretation of Islam.
Its unusually named ministry of religion, the 'Presidency of Religious Affairs and the Religious Charitable Foundation,' has undertaken a three-year 'Hadith Project' systematically to review 162,000 hadith reports and winnow them down to some 10,000, with the goal of separating original Islam from the accretions of fourteen centuries."
