Adnan Oktar
 - 
Forgiveness is a characteristic God appreciates greatly. That is because revenge might give a lowly pleasure to one's soul, but forgiving is hard; I mean it [forgiveness] necessitates will-power and wisdom. That is because in forgiveness one does not achieve satisfaction, but revenge might bring satisfaction. That is why God takes forgiveness as a basis.

Adnan Oktar
 - 
If you do not put your trust in God, God would not give you people that you can trust. He would make everyone of them a trouble for you. If you take on God, God would take on you. If you regard God as powerless - may God forbid - God would make you come across powerless people.
 (A9 TV; January 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
A Muslim should fiercely stay away from fear of the future. That [fear of the future] means you do not put your trust in God but in that house you bought, or in the money you've saved up somewhere. God would devastate you. Furthermore, what good would that money be to you once God brings troubles upon you? Such a thing is not acceptable. No one dies out of hunger, no one who placed his trust in God has ever been harmed.
 (A9 TV; January 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Fear of the future is religiously unlawful, a Muslim cannot think that way. God is the One Who creates every single second of our lives. All the precautions you take might come back to you as troubles. For instance, you might think about saving money but that might all end up going for cancer treatment or somehow otherwise be spent. You buy a house and God makes it collapse on top of you. One cannot put his trust in such things, but only in God. Anything other than that would be very wrong and would offend God.
 (A9 TV; January 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Sentimentality and anger are beneath Muslims. That is because a Muslim always acts with God in mind. He always thinks rationally and equitably. He never forgets that God is the One Who creates everything, even those things that appear to be the most horrible incidents.
 (A9 TV; January 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
God is the Creator of even the maddest or the most abnormal acts. Individuals are not the perpetrators; no one can ever act outside destiny. That is why one needs to be moderate, poised and rational when evaluating incidents taking place.
 (A9 TV; January 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
A Muslim would not respond to foolishness with foolishness, to instability with instability, to rage with rage, to anger with anger. One needs to be rational and always be aware of the fact that God is with him; that is because God is the One Who makes the others do those abnormal acts. Consequently a Muslim would be aware of the fact that no one is an independent being, so he would not worry.
 (A9 TV; January 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
One should never severe his connection with God. Many things could happen that might appear to be against him, many things might go wrong, but one should nevertheless follow a very rational policy that doesn't mind stepping back when necessary. Muslims are humble people and assume God's sense of right and wrong. Acting moderately as much as possible is what suits a Muslim. Sudden and unrestrained reactions would block one's rationality.
 (A9 TV; January 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Assuming a humble attitude would not bring abatement for Muslims, it is not something depreciative. A Muslim is not in a position to be worried about his pride, but rather about the good of Islam.
 (A9 TV; January 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
God does not want us to have only medium wisdom while preaching Islam and disseminating His Message. He wants us to have superior wisdom. Islam would not be disseminated with a mediocre rationality and wisdom; that is because some anti-Islam fronts are in a struggle against Muslims in an ambitious alliance by advocating numerous other philosophies.
 (A9 TV; January 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
The traditionalist orthodox system imagines that the more they exert pressure in the name of God, the more they move closer to God: Actually, in such an environment, not only do people not get closer to God but they drift further apart from God and religion and they also lose their mental stability.
 (A9 TV; January 5th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Modernity, before all else, brings about sanity. In a bigoted system, the human mind cannot operate normally. In a bigoted environment people become half-insane. Look around and you will see that many of them are mentally unstable. In modern societies, the human mind operates sanely and rationally.
 (A9 TV; January 5th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
We need to be a very modern European country. This is something our government should emphasize the most. Without modernity, there would be no progress in science, in arts. Without modernity we would not have any military power. We would become a classical Middle Eastern country and collapse gradually.
 (A9 TV; January 5th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
The government should make Turkey modern. All the institutions of the state should be modernized. Efforts should be made to modernize our people. The buildings, life in general, the system, everything should be modernized. Otherwise there would be a grave danger.
 (A9 TV; January 5th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Almighty God conceals Himself under covers. Those who can see beneath those covers are very rare; I mean those who are able to uncover, let us say, sixty of those may be seventy covers are very few. People of the heart uncover those covers and the more they do so, the more they become closer to Almighty God.
 (A9 TV; January 4th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
The state should be looking out for the system of the Mahdi with all its might. That is because in the system of the Mahdi, there is no intervention to the state. The system of the Mahdi would not interfere in politics; that is because it has a feature that unites the Turkish world, and it is also a system against bigotry, a system that fully encourages modernity and is fundamentally against separation. That is absolutely ideal for the state.

Adnan Oktar
 - 
If a person is not offended when inappropriate things are said about God, about the Qur'an, but instead makes a loud noise thinking Mawlana is being insulted, then that would be idolizing him.
 (A9 TV; January 4th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
A Muslim would be falling astray if he accepts the abnormal statements made in the name of Mawlana. We do not know if Mawlana really made those statements or not but those statements are being published in the Masnavi known as his book: It is not possible to accept that.
 (A9 TV; January 4th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
The British deep state is trying to replace Islam with Rumism. Muslims should be very cautious against this plot.
 (A9 TV; January 2nd, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
The British deep state is the one who rules all the deep states of the world: They also rule the deep state of the US.
