Yunus Emre: Askin Yolculugu

I never watched a turkish movie, I discovered it in Netflix, first I was interrested because it is about Islam and I wanted to discover the suffi tradition, I have little knowledge about the concept, I hesitated in the beginign because it is in Turkish and the subtitles are too fast also it makes one miss some secens when looking at the translation rather than the movie, this is the only aspect that is bothering me but I love so much the story that I can't stop wathcing it. I learn a lot especially from the lessons that are given by the sheikh after evening prayers, it makes me more spiritual and more understanding the concept of Islam with a philosophal approach. I Love it!!! it would have been very helpful if it was translated in arabic. The actors and actresses are amaizing!!, Yunus is acted with a high talent and I also like the acting of the Sheikh and Kasim all were amaizing. its a great job from all people behind the scenes. I just red that the actor who plays the role of sheikh has died and felt sad, Allah yarhamoh I hope this serie has elevated his good deeds inshallah because it had a positive impact on me personnaly. Thank you

This show is a must watch. The spiritual part of Islam is very well depicted. The relationship between a teacher and disciple and so many aspects have been shown. It's highly recommended...

Absolutely brilliant series, the acting top tier, the cinematography is beautiful, I feel transported to a different time and place. I am fascinated by the teachings of the Sheikh and the humanized struggles of the protagonists as we see Yunus struggling with his unchecked ego. Many scenes/teachings leave me teary eyed (I never cry!)

The only criticism I have concerns the subtitles, they are not good enough for a masterpiece such as this. I would implore Netflix to PLEASE re subtitle this series for the world audience. Although I can follow along, I feel that I am missing out on like 25-50% of the beauty of the old Turkish language with respect to the spiritual lessons being taught by the character of the Sheikh.

God Bless all of you.

I just finished the first viewing and expect to catch many more goodies in a second watching, or should I say, absorption!? This series is totally riveting and yes does suffer from poor translation!

My question to the community is:

Where can one find a copy of the book written by director & professor Mustafa Titci

"Hear what the loved ones say"

I would love to also read what Prof Mustafa Titci has to say while watching the series a second time!!

Always when I think about it , I have goose bumps on all my body . it was just what i was looking for , just to be human , to love each other , to not be distracted by external things . Yes
