@hakanlover ...It is not a museum as Turks want to call it . IT IS A MONUMENT. They are extremelly afraid to call it as such......All hummanity knows by common sence that a museum is the building.... that includes the exhibits...A building like Agia Sofia, or the Parthenon ,or the Colosieum ARE MONUMENTS ....Not buildings....It is like calling Stonehenge......a museum instead of a monument ....Simply a rediculus assuption.....

If u didn´t know, then even the Bible says that this Church will belong to Orthodoxes in the end. So keep on dreaming, becouse whatever and however you do want it to be-it will be ours, inshallah! :)))))))
