Turkish Theologian, Journalist, Writer

Abdullah Aymaz was born on 1945, in Emet, Turkey. After studying at the primary school, he moved to Izmir, where he met with Turkish scholar and opinion leader Fethullah Gulen and Hizmet (Service) Movement, to study at religious vocational high school and Islamic Institute. During his time in high school, he wrote up articles for Gurbet magazine. He served as teacher and manager of educational foundations in several places of Izmir. In 1979, his religious and educational articles began to be published in Sızıntı magazine, which is the very first publication of Hizmet Movement. As of 1988, his journalism career commenced in Zaman newspaper, in which he also served as editor-in-chief until 1992. As writer, he published more than 50 books under the pen names of Huseyin Bayram, Ismail Yediler and Safvet Senih. Currently, his articles are still published in Zaman Europe. Aymaz is one of the first names that come to mind when one thinks of Hizmet Movement. Because he spent most of his time with Fethullah Gulen in his youth and after, he internalizes the vision of Gulen. Considering the very beginning of Hizmet Movement, he has a very important role in the formation of movement’s discourse. 19 In March 1997, he conveyed Fethullah Gulen’s letter to Pope John Paul II. Since the days in Izmir, where Gulen’s outstanding discourse began to crystallize, Abdullah Aymaz has become an integral part of him and the movement.
