On November 19 and 20, 2006, The Istanbul Foundation for Science and Culture sponsored an international conference on the theology of Said Nursi (1877-1960), a major Muslim leader in the late Ottoman Empire and the early Turkish Republic. The workshop focused on Nursi’s views on theodicy and the resurrection of the dead in relation to other Abrahamic perspectives.

Fr. Lefebure's full report on this conference can be found in Bulletin #78.
