Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The Ottoman Empire was an empire inspired and sustained by Islam.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Ottomans committed the most atrocious crimes against Arab Muslims, taking pleasure in taming and oppressing them, as well as sacrificing their lives without second thought.
Detailed explanation-3: -However, Islam dominated Ottoman government entirely. The sultan was also the caliph-the supreme ruler of all Islam-and religious law (sharia) was theoretically (though not always practically) held above kanun. Non-Muslims were subject to extra taxes (jizya) and forced conscription and conversion (devshirme).
