Fethullah Gulen awarded honorary doctorate by Punjab University

Fethullah Gulen
Punjab University has issued an honorary PhD degree to mainstream Turkish scholar, thinker, prolific writer, poet and opinion leader Muhammad Fethullah Gulen in a ceremony organized at the Undergraduate Study Centre on Thursday.

Fethullah Gulen schools or Gulen-inspired schools?

Fethullah Gulen
First of all there no such definition as “Fethullah Gulen schools”. None of the schools have an official affiliation with Fethullah Gulen himself. There is no way Fethullah Gulen himself to involve in the establishment of such large number of schools which are scattered all over the world. And, it is humanly impossible to one person who lives in an isolated, remote region to manage the schools which are in different countries.

The missing part in this ordeal is not recognizing the influence of Fethullah Gulen in the world fast developing county, Turkey.
