The male and female believer must abandon that.

It is not permissible to shake hands with non-mahrams, but if he shakes hands with his sister, aunt, uncle, or wife, there is nothing wrong with it.

As for shaking hands with his paternal uncle’s daughters, his paternal aunt’s daughters, his neighbors’ daughters, or the like, this is not permissible.

Even if he puts a rag on, and even she if puts on a rag;

“Because the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: I do not shake hands with women. When he pledged allegiance to them and a woman extended her hand to him, he said: I do not shake hands with women.”

He is the role model upon him, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. Allah Almighty said: “Indeed there has been for you in the Messenger of Allah a good example.” [Al-Ahzab: 21]

Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, said: By Allah, the hand of the Messenger of Allah never touched the hand of a woman - meaning: in the pledge of allegiance -

He would not pledge allegiance to them except by speaking, peace and blessings be upon him, and because shaking hands with women is a means to temptation, just as looking at them is a means to temptation.

Thus, shaking hands is a means of sedition. That is why Allah forbade it to block the door to temptation.

Those with sick hearts and malicious pens deliberately direct false accusations against the Ottoman Empire that it abandoned Andalusia and did not move to help it. Unfortunately, a large group of ordinary Muslims were led behind them. The truth is that these words are pure lies and slander, as the Ottoman Empire made many attempts to help Andalusia.

In order for things to become clear to us, we must understand the nature of the two states and their conditions at that stage, at a time when the Uthman state was making its way to announce itself and raise the flag after it had almost fallen at the hands of "timurlinik".

The state of Andalusia in the West was accelerating towards collapse, with conflict over rule between the kings of the sects, the spread of strife, and some Muslim kings seeking help from the Christians against their brothers. The kingdoms of Islam began to fall one after another, and thus the scene in the Islamic world was like this:

A young country begins its glory, fights on several fronts to prove itself, and fights fierce battles against Europe in the west and the Safavid state in the east, and another country whose star is declining in Andalusia, its kings struggle, and its kingdoms collapse at the hands of the Christians, one after the other.

However, as soon as the calls for help reached Sultan "mohamed alfatih", who was busy conquering the greatest city in Europe at that time, “Constantinople,” the Conqueror came to the aid of the Andalusians. He attacked Italy and took control of the city of Latranto, trying to reach Andalusia, but several obstacles stood before him that prevented him from completing the mission. Al-Masir, after the conqueror, his son "Bayazid" assumed power, and during "Bayazid’s" rule, disaster occurred with the fall of Andalusia and "Abu Abdullah al-Ahmar" handing over the keys of Granada to the Christians in the year 1492 AD.

The cries of the Andalusians and their appeals to the Ottomans continued, and although "Bayazid" II was consumed in fierce wars with various forces of the Europeans, the Safavids, and the Mamluks, he was not able to respond to these calls for help, so he sent a huge fleet led by “Kamal Rais” to strike the coast of Spain and try to enter Andalusia.

"Kamal Rais" tried to reach Granada, but the European obstacles, the betrayals that occurred from some Islamic forces, the refusal of the Mamluks to cross the Ottoman land army through Egypt, and the refusal of the Hafsid dynasty in Tunisia to provide a helping hand to the Ottoman fleet, all of this stood in the way of the Ottoman fleet reaching Andalusia and saving it before it was too late. It's time,

The Ottoman attempts to save the Andalusians did not stop, but continued even after the fall of Andalusia. After Selim I assumed power, he sent to the commander of the Islamic fleet, Oruj, and assigned him a mission known in history as the impossible mission, which was based on attacking the coasts of Spain, controlling them, saving the Muslims of Andalusia from the Inquisition, and returning them to the country. Algeria.

Oruj was able to successfully implement the plan and save tens of thousands of Moriscos. When Suleiman the Magnificent, the greatest sultan of the Ottoman Empire, took power, he also rose up to try to save the Moriscos. He prepared an army of two hundred thousand and tried to reach Andalusia via Vienna, but he did not complete the journey due to the Safavids attacking the capital. Ottoman Caliphate.

"Suleiman" also sent eighty ships and eight thousand Janissary fighters to the commander of his fleet, "Khair al-Din Barbarossa", and ordered him to attack Andalusia and rescue the Muslims there. The Ottoman Empire opened its doors to the Andalusians fleeing their country, “Andalusia,” and the Ottomans received nearly half a million Andalusians, Muslims and others. This was A quick look at some of the Ottomans’ attempts to save Andalusia,

The final question remains: Why were these attempts not crowned with success?!
The truth is that the matter was not as easy as some imagine. The matter was very complex, and there were many factors that prevented the Ottomans from saving Andalusia.

The most important of these factors is the geographical nature, in addition to the European Crusader alliance against the Ottomans and the Spanish closure of the Strait of Gibraltar. It is unfair to ignore all of that, forget all these attempts, and accuse the Ottomans of being excessive in supporting Andalusia.

After about two centuries of international isolation, Japan shifted course following the Perry Expedition and the Meiji Restoration of 1868, which ended the Tokugawa Shogunate era and restored power to the Japanese Emperor. This shift aimed at opening up to the world and addressing its scientific and technological lag. Consequently, the Japanese established diplomatic relations with several countries, hoping to gain economic and scientific benefits.

Meanwhile, the Ottoman Empire was one of the countries Japan sought to establish diplomatic relations with. In late the 19th century, the Ottomans attempted to send a delegation to the Japanese archipelago, relying on the frigate Ertuğrul, to meet Emperor Meiji.

Preparation for the Journey to Japan:
During its diplomatic and educational mission towards Europe, the Japanese ship Seiki arrived in Istanbul in November 1878. There, members of the Japanese mission quickly met with Ottoman Sultan Abdul Hamid II before continuing their journey towards European cities. Three years later, Japanese diplomat Masaharu Yoshida arrived in Istanbul hoping to conclude trade agreements with the Ottoman side.

Following the visit of Japanese Prince Komatsu Akihito in 1887, the Ottoman Empire decided to send a delegation to the Japanese archipelago for the first time in its history to meet the Emperor.

In February 1889, Minister Kamil Pasha met with Ottoman Navy commander Hassan Hassan Pasha to discuss sending an Ottoman frigate to Japan. Kamil Pasha requested sending several graduates of the Ottoman Naval Academy to demonstrate their ability to sail long distances.

On the other hand, Ottoman Navy commander Hassan Hassan Pasha suggested relying on the frigate Ertuğrul for this mission, emphasizing its capability to sail to Japan. Additionally, Hassan Hassan Pasha appointed Captain Ali Osman Pasha of the Ottoman Navy for the mission due to his proficiency in multiple languages.

Maritime Disaster on the First Visit to Japan:
In mid-July 1889, the ship Ertuğrul, carrying about 607 passengers, set sail for Japan. It was planned that the Ottoman ship would pass through Port Said, the Suez Canal, Jeddah, and Aden before stopping in India, Singapore, Saigon, and several ports in China.

Upon reaching the Suez Canal, the Ertuğrul broke down on July 26, 1889. As a result, the journey was delayed for weeks. After some minor repairs, the ship left Egypt in mid-September of the same year. Upon reaching the Indian Ocean, the Ertuğrul experienced another breakdown and suffered from water leakage. Consequently, the ship's crew stopped at Singapore for further repairs. On March 22, 1890, the Ertuğrul departed from Singapore and arrived in Yokohama, Japan on June 7, 1890.

After meeting with the Emperor of Japan and his aides and exchanging gifts, the Ottoman delegation, aboard the Ertuğrul, departed Yokohama on the evening of September 15, 1890. During the night, a strong storm hit the area, causing the main mast of the ship Ertuğrul to break. Due to the Ottomans' lack of experience in dealing with such ocean storms, the crew of the Ertuğrul struggled to control the ship, which was tossed by the waves.

Later, the crew of the Ertuğrul attempted to steer the ship towards the nearby Kobe area. On the way, one of the engine rooms suffered significant water leakage, causing the ship to malfunction and become unable to sail. Despite the crew's attempt to anchor it by throwing the anchors, the waves threw the Ertuğrul towards the eastern coast of Kii Ōshima, where it crashed into rocks.

The Ottoman's first visit to Japan ended in a maritime disaster, with the sinking of the Ertuğrul resulting in the death of over 500 Ottoman sailors, including Captain Ali Osman Pasha. On the other hand, about 70 sailors were rescued thanks to the quick intervention of German warships, which were close to the scene, and Japanese boats.
