The Presidency of Religious Affairs (Diyanet) continues its practice of issuing weekly Friday sermons (khutbah) to provide religious and social guidance to mosques across Turkey.

In late July 2026, the Diyanet released a sermon focused on ‘halal-haram awareness,’ emphasizing that lawful and unlawful concepts extend beyond food to include trade, digital conduct, and public responsibility. The sermon utilized Qur’anic verses and hadiths to urge ethical conduct and honesty. By late August 2026, the Diyanet prepared to release its next scheduled sermon, maintaining its role in providing moral and social direction to the community.
