Hmm, that is a tough question. Many Many Muslim heros i can think of.
Of course After the prophet peace be upon him, I will choose Saladin for his intellegence, patience, tolerance, successes, and an example of one of those few who was even admired by his enemies! ------------- D.J.

Husein-kapetan Gradaščević ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1802" title="1802 - 1802 – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/August_17" title="August 17 - August 17 , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1834" title="1834 - 1834 ) was a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosniaks" title="Bosniaks - Bosniak general who fought for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosnia_and_Herzegovina" title="Bosnia and Herzegovina - Bosnian autonomy in the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottoman_Empire" title="Ottoman Empire - Ottoman Empire . He is often referred to as "Zmaj od Bosne", meaning "Dragon of Bosnia". He gained a reputation as a hero and a strong, brave, and decisive ruler. One anecdote that illustrates this is Husein-kapetan's alleged response to whether he was scared of waging war against the Ottoman Empire. "God I fear slightly," Gradaščević replied, "the Sultan not at all, and the Grand Vizier no more than my own horse." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Husein_Grada%C5%A1%C4%  evi%C4%87------------- |

Sultan AbdulHamid II While the empire was at its peak in decline he managed to keep it alive for another 30+ years. His famous for his reply against the zionist jews after asking for palestine from the sultan. Sultan AbdulHAmid II replied: "I will not give one inch of palestine to the jews. As palestine is not mine to giv but it belongs to the ummah and the ummah hav shed blood to defend this land. BUT IF ONE DAY THE ISLAMIC STATE FALLS APART THEN U CAN HAV THE PALESTINE FOR FREE. But as long as im alive ill rather have my flesh be cut out then cut Palestine from the muslim land. i will not allow any carvings WHILE WE ARE ALIVE!!" ------------- Either your a slave to what MADE-MAN Or your a slave to what MAN-MADE |

Hoca Ahmet Yesevî, the Turkmen eren who thought Islam to Turks of Central Asia by their own way of praying and own philosophies. His followers such as Haci Bektash Veli are also heroes for the improvement of Islam, its philosophy and methods. Karamanoglu Mehmet Bey was also a hero, but his purposes werent generally about Islam so we cant consider him as a Islamic her. Of course also Hz. Ali with his Zulfikar was a real hero for the Islamic faith. Fatih Sultan Mehmed II Khan the Conquerer is also an Islamic hero, by conquering Konstantiniyye altough he slaughtered about 150000 Turkmens, I still totally appreciate his magnificience. ------------- |

Too many heros to mention, so I'll leave you with a question. Did the Turkmen enter Anatolia as mostly Alevi, Sufi, Sunni, Shi'a or historcally Tanri believers? ------------- |

I like the Assasins, specially Hassan i Sabbah, the founder of the
sect, Sinan ed Din, Great Master of the Syrian Assasins in time of the
Crusades, and Hassan II, who proclaimed the Qiyama and got the sect out
of Islam for the time of his reign only. They are great anti-heroes of
incredible personality. More modernly, I like Malcom X, Yasir Arafat (up to apoint) and Basayev. -------------

Basayev is a moden islamic hero, also Khattab who was assasinated not long ago. My favourites: Hajjaj Bin Yusuf Al Thaqafy (psycho ruler, saddam hussain of old, call him what you want, this guy was a pain in the ass for the entire world and i like him for it The Black Sultan (can't recall his name, but during his reign he never lost a battle against the spanish/portugese crusaders) Khalid bin al Waleed Imad al Din and Nur Al Din Zengi (nur al din gets a bit speshul treatment, one of the few islamic generals who never lost a battle) |

Maybe Yusef Ibn Tifsheen, of the Moravids. Without his aid, Muslims of Spain would have been out of Spain 400 years earlier. ------------- D.J. Kaufman Wisdom is the reward for a lifetime of listening ... when youd have preferred to talk. |

Well, the name "Turkmen" was given to us because we became Muslims (Turk+iman). But on the other hand, the term Muslim was too different from the Sunnite understanding. Turkmens were not totally Islamified when they entered Anatolia. They were just the followers of some sufi philosopher Turkmen shamans (in fact the title "baba" refers to shaman, it's still used by alevis and bektashis). So they were the followers of the teachings of Hoca Ahmed Yesevi, but their beliefs and methods were still dominantly shamanistic. When they entered Iran, Shia sect influenced their believs. That's why the believe in 12 imams, the cult of Hz. Ali and so. But Shia understanding wasnt that much effective on their system until the Safavid period when they imposed Shia propoganda to Anatolian Turkmens. Alevis were always referred as half shamans, but their belief systems are also influenced with Shia and ancient Anatolian elements. Their Islamification procedure mostly happened in Anatolia as the followers of some babas, so that's why they also have some ancient Anatolian elements... But about Chepnis, lots of them are still shamanists... ------------- |

No, it wasn't Yusef, it was Yaqub Al Mansur, who defeated a very large crusader force at Alarcos/Zalacca. The latinized version of his name was Al Manzor.

2. Inela Nogic - Miss Sarajevo Under Siege "From my country, from this town, I guess that they all have their own way of fighting. So not just man with guns, but also women with their beauty. Us Muslim girls try to look beautiful to show those beasts that are killing us that beauty and life will win over death, and for this reasons I am very proud to accept the title of Miss Sarajevo under siege." - Inela Nogic     http://www.pixelpress.org/bosnia/bosnia.pageant.mov - Here is a video of Inela winning the pageant! ------------- |
