On the program titled "İddiaların Aksine" broadcast on TRT 1 screens, claims linking the Turkey Diyanet Foundation (TDV) to recent developments in capital markets were examined under the microscope. The program included the official statement that the foundation does not have any assets in liquidated investment funds, and does not invest in interest-bearing financial products and the stock market.

It was emphasized that the allegations made against the Turkey Diyanet Foundation on social media and in some media outlets following developments in capital markets since mid-September do not reflect the truth. It was stated that the foundation's cash assets are evaluated according to interest-free finance principles, and resources that cannot be used in the short term are kept within the framework of relevant legislation. In addition, touching upon the foundation's educational, cultural, and charitable activities spanning over half a century, the program noted that the allegations target the institution's reputation and the trust placed in religious institutions.
