There is a false understanding that after becoming religious, a person needs to lose his joy of life, become dull and quiescent. Religion gives a person liveliness and vitality. A person becomes ten or a thousand times livelier than before with religion.

Before one becomes religious, commandments of the religion are known only in a blurred way. There is no sharpness of mind and consciousness.

People have a wrong understanding of religion. They assume pious people become introverted and lose their joy. That is not being religious. One becomes lively and joyful with religion and faith in God. Believers are extraverted and full of life.

Mr. Trump should give priority to spirituality. He should carry out activities to strengthen the religiousness of the US. He should convene with Muslim religious scholars.

Some people think the pious should be detached from life. According to this mindset they can enjoy life while the devout must be withdrawn.

It is not right to advise 'not to remember God' at times when we have fun and enjoy ourselves. A religious person remembers God and speaks about God wherever he is or whatever he does.

A believer can make an error but he does not insist on doing it repeatedly.

Some people wrongly think that religion should be practiced later in life. On the contrary, religion should be practiced as soon as one attains the age of reason. My friends devoted their entire youth to God.

Everyone can make mistakes. It’d be cruel to shut them out, to bring down a person because he made one mistake.

We are religious, devout people and we always talk about God everywhere we go.

It’s good that Trump has the ideal of bringing back the old American dream, which means the US will be religious as it was before.

There was a mistaken idea that religious people should not enjoy luxuries, or live beautiful lives. That was a plan to suffocate Muslims. We put an end to that.

The religiousness of the American people is very nice. They have receded from their old moral values. Trump should try to build a religious America, if he can. Religiousness is a beauty and a blessing. Becoming religious once again would bring plenty and abundance to the American people.

It is important to win people over. Anyone can make a mistake. It is important to allow them to correct their mistakes.

Sometimes courtesy is to turn a blind eye to mistakes.

Due to my love for God, I deeply love every pious, pure woman I see because I see them as manifestations of God.

It is quite natural for a Muslim to make a mistake. People should not be afraid of making mistakes. Even if it is a big mistake, it can be solved by giving advice. But reacting angrily to advice is not normal. You could say, "Okay, I will consider this. May God bless you. I will try my best." That's it. But angry overreaction to advice is abnormal behavior.

A person of high quality apologizes for a mistake he makes without making any excuses.

It is unseemly to embarrass someone because of a mistake. An admission emphasizing one’s love, friendship and loyalty would suffice to make up for a mistake.

Making a mistake is not a terrifying thing. Every mistake is made in destiny and people find the truth by making those mistakes.

Mistakes revitalize and encourage believers even more. They become more persistent in their efforts to gain the good pleasure of God.

People learn lessons from their previous mistakes but it is not right to be hung up on the past. Everything happens for a good reason.

Every person makes the mistakes predestined in his or her destiny. Demoralizing someone due to a mistake would not befit a believer.

Making mistakes is a human attribute. Humans are weak creatures; they might repeat their mistakes. Getting angry with that would be uncalled for.

Love, entertainment, beauty, friendship exist in Islam in its best form.
