Özet: This paper will discuss the event of the 15th July failed coup attempt in Turkey according to Barakah Circle Theory. Turkey has a long list of military coups in its political history; the last bloody coup attempt Turkey occurred on the evening of 15th July 2016. Some factions within the Turkish military alleged to have relations with the Fethullah Gulen organisation –a ‘terrorist organisation’ according to Turkey– launched a coordinated operation to topple the government. While it failed, it also left several questions unanswered. Why did it take place at a time when the “Turkish star” was supposedly shining in a regional and economic sense, especially when previous coups had occurred mainly due to economic and political instability? Is there foreign support and was it part of an agenda for the emergence of the coup? And lastly, how has it affected the well-being and freedom of Islamicjerusalem and future prospects for the region?
