What a weird post.
Kiddo if there were no ottomons, Muslims political power would have been gone ages before. Mongols obliterated Arabs to pieces. And hijaz was hopelessly vulunerable and exposed in hands of weak remaining Abbasids. Any potent attack by a huge force would have seen total distruction of Muslim heart lands.
Turks rose and took the political rein of Islam in their hand and protected it for 1000 years. yes almost 1000 years. Rest of muslim world was a joke.
Only Iran and Mughal India were other mentionable powers but Mughals came much after rise of ottoman turks.
And believe me at the end of ottoman empire It was Arabs who betrayed, Turks managed to defended mainland turkey and anatolia against Brits very well. All credit goes to Arabs for backstabbing Ottomans
