I don't know much of Turkish culture per say....I'm more into Indian culture (is where I know Sufism and Qawwali from). As Sufism is linked to India, Persia and Turkey they all sort of cross reference. Rumi was a Persian man, but he moved in the Turkish circle. The Turkish Sufis were very amazing. Most Sufis or Qawwalis I like (other than Rumi) are Indian :)
This is a good place to read some of his short work if you would like to. He was a very peaceful and honest person. I believe we miss those kinds of people in our world today.
