In the text it reads that the sultan disolved the parliament in April 1920. Actually it was the Allies.Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 05:56, 4 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

I moved this uncited text here for sourcing at a later date.

The abolishment of the position of Caliphate and Sheikh ul-Islam was followed by a common, secular authority. Many of the religious communities failed to adjust to the new regime. This was exacerbated by the emigration or impoverishment, due to deteriorating economic conditions. Families that hitherto had financially supported religious community institutions such as hospitals and schools stop doing so.
