This work is a practical and educational revised edition of the timeless and unchanging section of the theoretical approach to the Islamic, Islam-derived, and Islam-affiliated mystical phenomenon, based on my previous work titled: "Islamic Secret Orders and Political-Economic Islam in Contemporary Turkey."

This particular work is no longer available in the bookstore market, and I do not intend to renew its publication in that old form. Many of the predictions from that manuscript have become realities in our days (2013) and may require more extensive references for those cases, such as the phenomenon of Fethullah Gülen and its international expansion as well as in our country.

Such provisions have been taken and implemented in the current edition, differentiating its content from the previous edition. Additionally, a large portion of case studies, which, although relevant at the time of their previous publication, are no longer timely and have therefore been removed from this revised edition.
