Aleph (Alef)

Previously...

Connection between Nusret Işık and Mustafa Diri...

Güneş is Settar's son.

Drugs and all of that kind of shit...

...the boy was just lost.

He was confused and trying to save his son...

...he beat the boy up.

In the end, the boy just jumped from the bridge.

We couldn't even find his body.

I'm wondering, what brought you to my dad's house exactly?

During an investigation some evidences took us to your dad.

Or rather, my guess is...

...the person we're looking for led us to your dad.

Then did you think that We created you uselessly...

...and that to Us you would not be returned?

So exalted is Allah, the Sovereign.

There is no deity except Him, Lord of the Noble Throne.

You're posing as the big cop.

You're all tough and harsh.

Where is my son now?

Where is my son?

Yes?

When?

Okay, I'm coming right away.

-Hi. -Hi.

Hi.

Sir, excuse me, I have to go back to my duty.

Thank you, dear Filiz. Thank you, girl.

Good day to you. -Thank you.

I'll go too.

Where, Nejat?

Do you have a duty too?

I'll go for my eye dressing.

I'll come back afternoon. Do you want anything?

No, thanks.

But if you see one of those sulky nurses...

...tell them to make me an egg with pastrami.

Will do.

Get better soon.

How do you feel?

Mustn't grumble.

As good as you can get in their hands.

They're going to make me starve to death.

They don't give me anything besides hot barley flakes...

...like I'm an heifer that has stomachache.

And my visitors come empty-handed, unfortunately.

I bought flowers but they didn't let them in.

Thank God.

Sit.

About the other day...

Don't let it go any further.

There is no use to get offended and be heartbroken.

So?

Any news?

We still couldn't get CCTV from Tunç Hotel.

In the mean time we're searching for Batın Bosnalı.

What? He's out?

They released him, because the custody time was up.

Fuck them then.

We got arrest warrant again.

And I sent the audio recording to a friend in London...

As he could gather, the name of a tanker is on the recording.

What's the name?

Kreon.

The ship that crashed...

...at the Anatolian Lighthouse three months ago.

Probably this recording was made somewhere near the Lighthouse too.

So from the radio of the killer...

...we can hear the ship's call for help.

And he was recording during that time.

Now we're looking into the ships and owners at the Lighthouse.

How did this happen?

What happened?

It's the time for bluefish.

I just wanted to eat some.

So I thought I'll go to Chief Çiko.

What a coincidence.

I was there around five p.m.

To go see the boats and that waterfront residence.

See, Kemal, life drags us to the same places...

...even when we're not in touch.

And then?

Then...

Stuff like these.

You called me last night?

Who else should I call, aren't you my partner?

I thought it was suspicious.

Suspicious?

I think of you when my heart was failing...

...and instead of being happy, you're suspicious?

Here comes the welcome choir.

-Hello. -Get well.

-Get well. -Get well.

Good morning.

-Good morning, Lieutenant. -Good morning, Lieutenant.

Did you visit the Captain? How is he?

He's fine. He's in high spirits.

We want to visit him afternoon. If you'll let us.

Sure, you can go, of course.

Lieutenant?

I found a few things...

...about the abandoned lodge I told you the other day.

The lodge saw similar arson attempts in the past.

992/1584.

What is this?

The translation of a padishah order dated 1584, Lieutenant.

On that date a kadi was asked to inspect that lodge.

The neighborhood reported dervishes of that lodge to padishah...

...saying they're disguising themselves as Mevlevis...

...but in truth they're heathens in contact with Safavid Persian.

And the padishah ordered to close them down immediately, of course.

But the dervishes then wrote a petition to the padishah...

...saying the claims are the work of a few greedy people...

...that wants to seize their lodge.

So to which community or foundation belonged the lodge...

...before being sold to Abdullah Ceren? Did you look into it?

We'll look into it right away, Lieutenant.

Please.

Lieutenant?

I found something about that Kayalar Mosque.

What is it, Cihangir?

It seems that Kayalar Mosque has an important place in sufism history.

A tariqa sheikh in 17th century, named Ismail Maşuki...

...executed at At Avenue with his followers.

They beheaded him.

And threw the pieces to sea.

His body was found at Bebek shore.

And his followers took it and buried it at Kayalar Mosque.

Thank you, folks.

Have a good day.

-You too, Lieutenant. -Thank you.

Revered Ismail Maşuki

Al-Fatiha to his soul

Hello.

I want to book for two tonight.

Yes.

-Welcome. -Thank you.

-Welcome. -Thank you.

-Didn't you like it here? -Nah.

I'm just surprised you picked here.

This was the only place I knew.

I didn't expect it would be so quiet though.

We can go somewhere else if you want.

No, it's very good.

Really.

I'm glad you called.

I mean, what happened last night...

I'm still a little ashamed.

I came to your door.

I drank a few glasses too.

But I didn't imagine the night would be ended like that.

It was great, actually.

Really?

Yes.

Well, I'm listening.

Excuse me?

You didn't call me for a romantic dinner, right?

No, no.

Kemal...

You can't lie.

Okay...

Also for a dinner...

...and to ask a few questions maybe.

Bon appetit.

-Thank you. -Thank you.

Again, welcome.

Thank you.

I'm ready, Detective.

What do you know about the evil interdiction?

An era that pressure increased against sufistics.

That whirling is banned and there were similar restrictions.

Even widely accepted orders like Mevlevis...

...took their share in that time of oppression.

Ismail Maşuki?

The boy sheikh?

An important "kutb" of Bayrami Malamatiyya.

The youngest.

What's "kutb"?

It's sheikh. The leader of the tariqa.

Do you know why Maşuki is killed?

Because he insisted on "wahdat al-mawjud"...

...they named him as nonbeliever and deviant.

What is "wahdat al-mawjud"?

There were two concepts in Medieval sufistic tradition.

One of them is the widely accepted "wahdat al-wujud"...

...and the less known is "wahdat al-mawjud".

"Wahdat al-wujud" is the sufistic concept that claims...

...the creator and creature are the same and comes from the same source.

According to that "everything is one, and one is everything."

Everything we can or can't see is manifestation of god.

So, you, me, all of us are a part of Him.

And "wahdat al-mawjud"?

The same unity concept with a little close...

...to pantheism and materialism.

I mean, basically, believing that the nature is god.

"Wahdat al-mawjud" also says there is a unity of all beings.

But according to it, god isn't anything else...

...then the whole sum of the beings constitute universe.

God is the universe itself.

And the both concepts...
