Said Nursi, also widely known as Bediuzzaman (the Wonder of the Age) was born in 1877 in eastern Turkey. Bediuzzaman displayed an extraordinary intelligence and ability to learn from an early age, completing the normal course of religious school education at the early age of fourteen, when he obtained his diploma. He became famous for both his prodigious memory and his unbeaten record in debating with other religious scholars. Another characteristic Bediuzzaman displayed from an early age was an instinctive dissatisfaction with the existing education system, which when older he formulated into comprehensive proposals for its reform.
The heart of these proposals was the bringing together and joint teaching of the traditional religious sciences and the modern sciences, with the founding of a university in the Eastern Provinces of the Ottoman Empire, the Medresetü'z-Zehra, where this and his other proposals would be put into practice. In 1907 his endeavors in this field took him to Istanbul and an audience with Sultan Abdulhamid II. Although subsequently he twice received funds for the construction of his university, and its foundations were laid in 1913, it was never completed due to war.Contrary to the practice of religious scholars at that time, Bediuzzaman himself studied and mastered almost all the physical and mathematical sciences, and later studied philosophy. In the course of time, modern sciences had been dropped from the religious schools curriculum, which had contributed directly to the Ottoman decline relative to the advance of the West. Bediuzzaman's endeavor was to prove and demonstrate that Islam is compatible with modern sciences and progress, the Holy Book was the source of true progress and civilization.
The years up to the end of the First World War were the final decades of the Ottoman Empire and were, in the words of Bediuzzaman, the period of the 'OldSaid'. In additions to his endeavors in the field of learning, he has had active involvement in social life and the public domain. In the War, he commanded the militia forces on the Caucasian Front against the invading Russians, for which he as later awarded a War Medal. To maintain the morale of his men he himself disdainedto enter the trenches against heavy shelling, and it was while withstanding the overwhelming assaults of the enemy that he wrote his celebrated the Holy Book's commentary, Signs of Miraculousness, dictating to a scribe while on horseback'stating that the Holy Book encompasses the sciences which make known modern sciences, the commentary is an original and important work which in Bediuzzaman's words, forms a sort model for commentaries he hoped would be written in the future, which would bring together the religious and modern sciences in the way he proposed. Bediuzzaman was taken prisoner in March 1916 and held in Russia for two years before escaping in early 1918, and returning to Istanbul via Warsaw, Berlin, and Vienna.The defeat of the Ottomans saw the end of the Empire and its dismemberment, and the occupation of Istanbul and parts of Turkey by foreign forces. These bitter years saw also the transformation of the Old Said into the New Said, the second main period of Bediuzzaman's life. Bediuzzaman underwent a profound mental and spiritual change in the process of which he turned his back on the world. Realizing the inadequacy of the 'human' science and philosophy he had studied as a means of reaching the truth, he took the revealed Qur'an as his 'sole guide.' In recognition of his services to the Independence Struggle, Mustafa Kemal (the founder of modern Turkey) invited Bediuzzaman to Ankara. Remaining some eight months in Ankara, he was offered various posts and benefits by Mustafa Kemal. He declined them and left Ankara for Van, where he withdrew into a life of worship and contemplation; he was seeking the best way to proceed.
In early 1925 there was a rebellion in the east in which Bediuzzaman played no part, but as a consequence of which was sent into in western Anatolia along with many hundreds of others. When he started to speak about oppression of thought and beliefs unjustly began twenty-five years of exile, imprisonment, and unlawful oppression for Bediuzzaman. He was sent to Barla, a tiny village in the mountains of Isparta Province. However, the attempt to entirely and silence him had the reverse effect, for Bediuzzaman was both prepared and uniquely qualified to face the new challenge. He has spend these years writing of the Risale-i Nur collection, which silently spread and took root, combating in the most constructive way the attempt to uproot freedom of religion and expression in today's modern Turkey.He died when he was in exile in Urfa, Turkey in 1960.said nursi

Bediuzzaman ditampilkan intelijen yang luar biasa dan kemampuan untuk belajar dari usia dini, biasa saja menyelesaikan sekolah pendidikan agama di awal usia empat belas, ketika itu dia mendapat diploma. Dia menjadi terkenal baik itu sangat banyak memori dan tak pernah kalah dalam catatan diperdebatkan dengan agama lain sarjana.

Bertentangan dengan praktik keagamaan ulama pada waktu itu, dirinya Bediuzzaman belajar dan dikuasai hampir semua ilmu fisik dan matematika, dan kemudian belajar filsafat. Sewaktu waktu, ilmu modern telah turun dari kurikulum sekolah agama, yang telah memberikan kontribusi langsung kepada Usmani menolak relatif terhadap kemajuan Barat. Bediuzzaman's telah berusaha keras untuk membuktikan dan menunjukkan bahwa Islam kompatibel dengan modern dan kemajuan ilmu, Kitab Suci adalah sumber yang benar dan kemajuan peradaban.
tahun hingga akhir Perang Dunia Pertama adalah akhir dekade dari Kekaisaran Ottoman dan di perkataan Bediuzzaman, masa yang 'OldSaid'. Dalam tambahan kepada usaha di bidang pembelajaran, dia telah aktif terlibat dalam kehidupan sosial dan domain publik. Dalam Perang, ia memerintahkan pasukan milisi di Kaukasus Muka invading melawan Rusia, di mana ia kemudian diberikan sebagai sebuah War Medal. Untuk menjaga semangat dari orang-orangnya dia sendiri disdainedto masukkan trenches terhadap shelling berat, dan saat itu withstanding yang besar assaults dari musuh, menulis bahwa ia dirayakan Kitab Suci dari tafsir, ayat Miraculousness, dictating ke penulis sedangkan di punggung kuda ' yang menyatakan bahwa Kitab Suci yang meliputi ilmu yang dikenal membuat ilmu modern, yang merupakan komentar asli dan penting yang bekerja di Bediuzzaman dari kata-kata, untuk membentuk sebuah model untuk mengurutkan komentar dia berharap akan ditulis di masa yang akan datang, yang akan membawa bersama-sama dengan agama dan modern ilmu di jalan dia diusulkan. Bediuzzaman tawanan diambil pada bulan Maret 1916 dan diadakan di Rusia selama dua tahun sebelum keluar pada awal 1918, dan kembali ke Istanbul melalui Warsawa, Berlin, dan Wina.
Dengan kekalahan dari Ottomans melihat akhir Empire dan pemotongan, dan pekerjaan Istanbul Turki dan bagian dari kekuatan-kekuatan asing. Pahit tahun ini juga melihat transformasi dari Lama ke Baru Said Said, yang kedua utama periode Bediuzzaman kehidupan. Bediuzzaman mengalami mendalam mental dan spiritual dalam proses perubahan di mana ia berpaling ia kembali pada dunia. Mewujudkan kekurangan dari 'manusia' sains dan filsafat ia belajar sebagai sarana untuk mencapai kebenaran, ia mengambil Alquran diturunkan sebagai 'satu-satunya panduan'. Dalam pengakuan kepada layanan kepada Perjuangan Kemerdekaan, Mustafa Kemal (pendiri Turki modern) diundang ke Ankara Bediuzzaman. Sisa beberapa bulan delapan di Ankara, ia menawarkan berbagai posting dan manfaat oleh Mustafa Kemal. Ia menolak mereka dan kiri Ankara untuk Van, di mana ia menjadi diri kehidupan ibadah dan kontemplasi; ia mencari cara terbaik untuk melanjutkan.
Pada awal 1925 terjadi pemberontakan di timur Bediuzzaman diputar di mana tidak ada, melainkan sebagai konsekuensi yang telah dikirim ke dalam Anatolia barat banyak bersama ratusan orang lain. Ketika dia mulai berbicara tentang penindasan pemikiran dan kepercayaan lalim mulai dua puluh lima tahun di pengasingan, penjara, penindasan dan haram untuk Bediuzzaman.

Namun, upaya untuk berdiam diri sepenuhnya dan dia mempunyai efek reverse, untuk Bediuzzaman keduanya telah disiapkan dan unik berkualitas untuk menghadapi tantangan baru. Ia telah menghabiskan tahun menulis ini dari Risale-i Nur koleksi, yang menyebar diam-diam dan mengambil akar, memerangi dalam cara yang paling konstruktif yang berusaha untuk menumbangkan agama dan kebebasan berekspresi di today modern Turkey.He ketika dia meninggal dalam pengasingan di Urfa , Turki pada 1960.
