Alcohol drags people into pessimism and triggers sadness but never brings happiness. On the contrary, it results in spiritual collapse.

Both for health and safety purposes and for social reasons, serving alcoholic beverages to passengers on airplanes is not a reasonable practice.

There is no pleasure or fun that alcohol can ever provide. Wine is a terrible drink that poisons the body.

There is nothing good in alcohol. It tastes bad, smells bad and it only gives dizziness and discomfort.

Alcohol causes great destruction. It poisons the body and the metabolism tries to get rid of it as soon as possible.

Some people keep saying they cannot feel relaxed unless they consume alcoholic beverage. The truth is they poison themselves with alcoholic drinks and losing their consciousness always causes them regret afterwards.

Having fun together, having dinners together, these are all good; but it should be without the alcohol. Alcohol devastates the body. Losing one’s control completely so that one can barely stand up due to alcohol is nothing fun. There is nothing fun about getting intoxicated.

It is wrong to promote drinking alcohol, which harms the body severely and gives enormous damage.

Drinking wine, rakı and whisky, being poisoned and wasted is not having fun. There is such a false culture of alcohol and that is a grave mistake. Alcohol is by no manner of means entertaining. It is a very harmful and very disruptive substance.

The government is acting sagacious with the precautions they have taken about the sales of alcohol. People taking alcohol are numbed. We need a robust, alive generation.

A person who drinks alcohol will become a sinner but that person would not be abandoning religion.

A believer considers serving Islam as a blessing but hypocrites don’t want to serve Islam. They follow their own evil religious law. Living alone, being stingy and feckless, leading an aimless, vain life, any act of moral turpitude and lying are all acceptable in the evil religious understanding of hypocrites.

A believer could never understand the spirit of a hypocrite or an unbeliever. It is a way of life that believers do not know and would never understand.

A believer who lives according to the moral values of the Qur’an is responsible to protect others like his own children. This is the system of guardianship in Islam.

A believer who strictly adheres to the Qur’an would never be unhappy or withdrawn.

A calming tone is always right. One needs to correct every provocative sentence, invite people to mildness and be moderate.

A careful person can detect malevolent people from their negative energy. When hypocrites walk into a place, their negativity is sensed immediately.

A compassionate person does not have prejudice or show bias against people. Being prejudiced is ignorance and vulgarity.

A cultivated person of high quality would never associate himself with prejudice.

A good joke gives joy to the person at which the joke is directed.

A good person is understood from his words, balanced state of mind, courtesy, understanding of compassion, sharpness of mind, peaceful face and wit.

A handful of woman-haters make a lot of noise and easily pressure women. If women form a united front, these misogynists would have no influence at all.

A hypocrite is a negative example for believers. That is why our brothers should lay great stress on hypocrisy as a subject matter.

A hypocrite is like a poisonous snake or scorpion. The spread of their poison should be prevented. That would only be possible with reasonable discourse. The way to neutralize hypocrites is to uncover their games and treachery and to intellectually paralyze them.

A hypocrite’s destiny is full of pain and suffering.
