Prisons are among such institutions. Since 1950s, there have been attempts of varying natures to provide religious services in prisons. With the signing of the new cooperation protocol between the Ministry of Justice and the Presidency of Religious Affairs in 2011, the scope of services provided was further expanded and spiritual guidance services were started to be offered in addition to the religious services provided to prisoners.
