Tatar army was successfully fighting with every rising sun. Had done
Kurdistan, where the Tatars built skull towers after the
worst massacre, a tribe of shepherds led by their chief Suleiman Shah migrated
to present-day Turkey and settled in what is now the Seljuk dynasty Was a
government that was itself under Roman invasion at the time. It gave them a
manor to live in as a poor country, but it did not know that nature had given
them an ally in the form of a warrior who moved on. Kar founded the great
Muslim Ottoman Empire.

1188 AD and died in 1280 AD. He had three sons, of whom Usman Ghazi established
the Khilafah in 1291 AD, ten years after the death of his father. The Ottoman
Caliphate was named after him. Sultan Muhammad was also the conqueror who
conquered Constantinople in 1453 AD and thus the prophecy of the Holy Prophet

According to history, when you were going to Anatolia with
four hundred of your warriors, they saw two armies fighting each other. One
army was winning and the other army was on the verge of defeat. Ertugrul Ghazi
sided with the defeated army only because of his nature that he considered it
his duty to support the weak and the oppressed.They did not try to find out who
the army was and what the reward would be in return. The army that Ertugrul
Ghazi sided with was the army of the Seljuk Empire and the Mongol army in
front.

Sultan Alauddin of the Seljuk Empire, pleased with the
bravery of the Ertugrul, gave him the territory of Sogut as a jagir and elected
his chieftain. As they approached, Ertugrul defeated the important Mongol chief
Navyan. Navyan was the right wing of the Mongol king Oktai Khan and Oktai Khan
was the son of Genghis Khan.
Ertugrul Ghazi is the name of this brave man who, through his character
and deeds, at the same time fought and conquered not only the Christians of his
time but also the traitors hidden in the sleeves of Islam and finally his son.
He laid the foundation of this great empire which has been the symbol of
Islamic center in the world for more than six hundred years.
This was the era when the Seljuk Empire was in a state of great
difficulty and various provinces had declared their independence, but the
loyalty in the blood of Ertugrul Ghazi, the chief of the Qai tribe, stood in
every test and he never lost his Mohsin did not commit the sin of rebellion
against Sultan Allauddin.
These were the days when in 1258 AD, Hulagu Khan invaded and destroyed
the Khilafah of Baghdaad, due to which the centrality of the Islamic world came
to an end. Ertugrul sent a new spirit to Ghazi's house in the form of his son
Usman Ghazi, who at an early age realized that Muslims were declining with each
passing day. He knew that the Seljuk Empire had traveled for centuries. It was
weakened after the war with the Romans, and the second Tatar invasion was a
storm that could not be stopped by a treacherous court. son Usman Ghazi, who at

In
1300 AD, when the Tatar savage tribe invaded the Seljuk Empire, the Seljuk
Sultan was defeated in the battle. In this era, instead of getting entangled in
war issues, he focused on running the affairs of the state. He was a respected
ruler not only in the eyes of Muslims but also in the eyes of non-Muslims
because of the intelligence and justice he received from his father.But the
scattered Turkish chiefs of that era saw his pacifism as his weakness and
conspired with the Romans to attack Usman, but when they were later defeated by
Usman, they Realizing that this was their biggest mistake and now one by one
all the forts were slipping out of their hands which proved to be a glorious
beginning of yesterday's Ottoman Empire and then the eye of the sky also saw
the time when Constantinople ie Islam began to flourish in present-day
Istanbul.
