He was imprisoned again and released in 1944. Sabahattin Ali married on and did his military service in 1936. After proving his allegiance to Atatürk by writing the poem "Benim Aşkım" (literally: My Love or My Passion), he was assigned to the publications division at the Ministry of National Education. He then applied to the Ministry of National Education for permission to teach again. Having served his sentence for several months in Konya and then in the Sinop Fortress Prison, he was released in 1933 in an amnesty granted to mark the 10th anniversary of the declaration of the Republic of Turkey. While he was serving as a teacher in Konya, he was arrested for a poem he wrote criticizing Atatürk's policies, and accused of libelling two other journalists. When he returned to Turkey, he taught German language in high schools at Aydın and Konya.
After serving as a teacher in Yozgat for one year, he earned a fellowship from the Ministry of National Education and studied in Germany from 1928 to 1930. Then, he was transferred to the School of Education in Istanbul, where he graduated in 1926. He lived in Istanbul, Çanakkale and Edremit before he entered the School of Education in Balıkesir. He was born in 1907 in Eğridere township (now Ardino in southern Bulgaria) of the Sanjak of Gümülcine (now Komotini in northern Greece), in the Ottoman Empire. Sabahattin Ali (Febru– April 2, 1948) was a Turkish novelist, short-story writer, poet, and journalist.
