The system of the Mahdi is not a claim but a demonstration. Islam prevails in the world and an individual takes the lead of the Islamic world. We can then think that he is the Mahdi (pbuh), God knows the truth and that is all (we can do).  We cannot enunciate it either, we can only say, "God knows the truth, he might be the one."

When they talk about religion they assume that it is all about memorizing the verses, knowing the Qur'an by heart and reciting the verses with tajwid, being careful about idgham (merging). Actually the essence and the wisdom in the Qur'an is what is important. I mean putting the meaning in the Qur'an into practice is important, not reciting the Qur'an by being careful with idgham and qalqalah (adding a slight bounce or reduced vowel sound). Arabs can do that effortlessly in the best manner, but there are also a lot of them who do not put those verses into life, into practice.

Our Prophet (saas) did not call people to himself, but to the Qur'an. None of the prophets called people to themselves but rather, to the Books of God. For instance, the Prophet Moses (pbuh) called to the Torah, the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) called to the Gospel. Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will be calling people to the Qur'an as well.

 - 
Wisdom is a beauty God likes. Some people talk plenty but lack wisdom. Wisdom has nothing to do with a lot of knowledge and a lot of verbalism. One might be a walking library but lack that profundity and fail to perceive the wisdom behind that knowledge. Such people only concentrate on the arrogance and snobbery knowledge could bring them. Actually knowledge can only be used for wisdom.

 - 
Neither the Last Day nor death would have any aspect that would make Muslims uneasy. It would offend God if Muslims think that they would be persecuted or suffer somehow. That is because God says, "Trust Me, if you are good no harm would ever touch you." Muslims should always think good and well about God.

Adnan Oktar
 - 
The whole issue is in submitting to God wholeheartedly and in loving God. Once you attain that, you would progress steadily on the right path. You might want to go faster, but God would not let you speed up. The system of the Mahdi is a system that progresses slowly. The followers of the Mahdi blossom out slowly as well. No matter how much they want it, no matter what they do, God makes them fill in that preordained time.

 - 
The core of the system of the Mahdi is wisdom and sincerity. Literary or fancy talks would be like singing a song and would have no true impact on people.
 (A9 TV; December 19th, 2015)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Some people assume that Islam can only prevail with huge expenses, great activities, organized movements, by doing things covertly, etc. Look at the Qur'an and you'll see that Islamic values have always prevailed metaphysically. The whole issue is in attaining sincerity.
 (A9 TV; December 19th, 2015)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
One only serves the system of the Mahdi and cannot claim to be the Mahdi. Look carefully into the course of history and you will see that they all ended up defeated. But God has always opened the way for all those who stepped forth claiming to be in the service of the system of the Mahdi and made them all elated.
 (A9 TV; December 19th, 2015)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
All of the artificial movements regarding the system of the Mahdi are doomed to collapse. That is because it means mocking the system of the Mahdi. God is the One Who gives one the lead. All the false Mahdi candidates end up defeated.

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Having fun, Islam, the Qur'an, eating and drinking and everything else; life is a whole with all its entirety. There is no life far-remote from Islam.  I mean there is no such thing to call "this part is Islamic and this part is non-Islamic." Islam is in every breath we take; while having fun, while laughing, sleeping, lying and waking up; Islam is in everything and everywhere one can think of. Any moment of life one claims to be outside of Islam is full of unawareness and means devastation.

If we become a very modern country, a very enlightened country, if we attain the highest levels in the rights of women, if we become outstanding in arts, science, aesthetics and quality, we would become the strongest country in the world.  Otherwise we would be a country that inevitably remains in the chain of Middle Eastern countries. Everyone would walk all over us and we would be devastated, may God forbid.

 - 
Weakness of faith renders one nonchalant. Such a person would not have the enthusiasm for spreading Islam, they would not have the strength to fear God. They only go after their own interests and their own problems. That is a grave problem.
 (A9 TV; December 18th, 2015)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
When people are weak in faith, they do not concern themselves with the fact that Muslims are being killed and persecuted in Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Libya; they do not think about the Darwinist education being given to our youth. They merely act on their instincts. They only look for where to have fun, how to enjoy themselves. They run after adventures. This nonchalance is the gravest disaster caused by the weakness in faith.

The deep state of the UK brought Darwinism to drag the Ottomans down into ruin and they have thus dealt an incomprehensible blow. They have dragged the whole world into a disaster, ripped apart and ruined the world. Both the First and the Second World Wars broke out because of it. Darwinism lies behind both of those wars. That is because both the Marxist way of thinking and the fascist way of thinking are philosophies stemming from Darwinism.

Darwinism is the reason why the PKK has progressed. It is again Darwinism that lies beneath the system that martyrs our soldiers and police officers. This is the origin of all these sicknesses.
 (A9 TV; December 18th, 2015)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
In Darwinist-materialist education, the existence of God is denied, all the prophets are denied: Heaven, Hell, creation is denied. May God forbid, the Power of God is considered as non-existent and this is all done in the name of science. Our government should not be instrumental in this and should put an end to this Darwinist-materialist education.

 - 
There is no such thing as the torment of the grave. You pass to a different dimension when you die. At the moment you die, you are made to feel that you are Muslim and you would instantly understand. From that peaceful feeling you feel, from your comfort you instantly get it and God would certainly never persecute His servants. There is no such thing. May God forbid, God is far beyond such an unjust, cruel understanding. He is Infinite Wisdom and Endlessly Compassionate.
 (A9 TV; December 17th, 2015)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Let me give you an important secret. You should not forget this secret throughout your life; God would never put a sincere Muslim with an open conscience in to Hell and no such person would ever be tormented. If one gives a sincere, determined struggle on the Path of God, even if he lives in a hellish environment in this world, God would make him live like he is in Heaven. That is an amazing demonstration of the power of God.

Turkey will eventually become one of the most modern countries of the world. There will be no bigotry, there will be women in revealing clothes and also those covering themselves with chadors, our cities will be far more beautiful than Paris and London; Diyarbakır, Siirt and everywhere else will be amazingly beautiful. We have an astounding determination, strength, means and intellect. We will do all of these things.
