As some of you may know, lately there has been a lot of bad blood between Turkey and Egypt, Saudi and UAE.
Egypt accuses Erdogan of being sympathetic to the Muslim Brotherhood. Both the UAE and Saudi hate the MB, seeing it as a threat to their autocratic dynastic regimes. Turkey came to the aid of Qatar, when UAE and Saudi cut off land access to Qatar.
A week ago, the UAE Foreign Minister and member of the ruling family, re-tweeted a tweet that accused the Ottomans of looting Medina.
Erdogan got pissed and hit back, saying:

Well in the midst of all this, the UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs just stated that Arabs will not be led by Ankara or Tehran, instead Arabs should be led by Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Egypt is obsequious to a degree to UAE/Saudi axis, relying on them for money and diplomatic influence.

If Islam is anti-racist as Muslims, especially evangelical Muslims, love to boast, then why does it matter that Turkey isn't Arab. Reality is Arabs from the peninsula have always used Islam to advance their racial/ethnic imperialistic interests. That's why they can never accept non-Arabs ever leading Islam. Islam is their religion, they created it, to conquer and dominate. They will also never accept Egyptians leading Islam and the Arab world, cause Egyptians aren't 'real' Arabs. And this goes without saying: none of the MENA groups would ever accept Pakistan/other South Asians and Malays leading Islam, because they are seen as untermenschen in the eyes of MENA people.

ISTANBUL (Reuters) - Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan leapt to the defence of an Ottoman military commander on Wednesday after the United Arab Emirates foreign minister retweeted accusations that Ottoman forces looted the holy city of Medina during World War One.
The tweet also said Turkish forces abducted residents of Medina and took them to Istanbul. “These are Erdogan’s ancestors, and their history with Arab Muslims,” read the tweet, originally posted by someone identifying themselves as an Iraqi dentist from Germany.
Erdogan got pissed and hit back, saying:
“Those miserable people who are delirious enough to shamelessly and tirelessly say Erdogan’s ancestors stole sacred items from there and brought them to Istanbul - it was to protect them from the people that came to invade,” he said.
