Islam allows them to lead the country with feelings and rhetoric instead of actual results. It lets them get huge financial sums in aid from the GCC instead of having to show proper financials to the WB and IMF. The irony is that a lot of the economic strength brought to Turkey came from it by being secular, by moving closer to EU standards, especially in the 90s and 2000s. Now, Erdogan seems to be reversing all of this.
