A first time comprehensive album presenting the marvelous collection of the Sacred Relics in Topkapi Palace Museum, Istanbul We are now introduced to a masterpiece which will give us an opportunity to step into the mysterious realm of the Sacred Trusts, delve into the dazzling memories of the past at every page, and depart for a journey into the eras where the light of our ancestors rains down on every place and time, each with a different magnificence and eminence. We sincerely believe that The Sacred Trusts will speak to appreciative readers through each and every paragraph, picture, and sentence and that this book will compose outstanding melodies for those who are loyal to their spiritual makeup. It will perhaps deliver the most amazing sermon to our imagination, speaking even more eloquently than the most colorful, comprehensive, and meaningful speech. When Sultan Selim returned from the Egyptian campaign (1517), he brought to Istanbul the Sacred Relics from the treasuries of the Mamluk state, Abbasid Caliphate, and Hijaz Emirate. From the staff of Prophet Moses to the Mantle of Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon them, the Sacred Relics which Ottomans preserved in Topkapi Palace for centuries paying utmost respect, are presented in this book.
