Bediuzzaman (“Wonder of the Age”) Said Nursi (1877-1960) was a Turkish scholar during the twilight years of the Ottomans and the founding of the modern Republic of Turkey by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. He is known largely for his intellectual-spiritual jihad in restoring the rational basis of religious truth and eliminating divisive tendencies between the religious and intellectual sciences.
