Question

Hello, my name is Can. I live in Turkey and come from an Alevi lineage, but those in our family who were Jewish have gradually disappeared over time. My father’s grandfather was Binyamin. I would like to convert to the Jewish religion; what path should I follow to do this in Turkey? In addition, when I researched Kabbalah, it answered all my essential inner questions. Where can I read and get detailed information about it? Thank you.

Answer

Shalom u’vracha.

I cannot help you undergo conversion from a distance.

You should turn to the local Jewish community (there are several respected communities in Turkey) and rely on their help.
