Did the Prophet Joseph (pbuh) have tanks and cannonballs? No, he didn’t. Did he have thousands of students? No, he didn’t. Did he have money? No, he didn’t. What did he have? He had sincerity. He was the Mahdi of his time. God made him victorious. What condition does Almighty God has for that? One should be able to endure hardships, one should be patient in the face of hardships and sufferings. Or else no result can be attained if one tries to present himself as if he is facing hardships yet not really facing any hardships.

People will approach the community of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) with suspicion as well. The whole Islamic world will have suspicions about them, and because of those suspicions they will only be 313 people.

Muslims recognize the Mahdi (pbuh) with their foresight, perception and with the light of their faith. Just like people recognizing our Prophet (saas) with the light of their faith, just like his students recognizing Bediuzzaman Said Nursi with the light of their faith, Muslims will also recognize the Mahdi (pbuh) with the light of their faith.

Almighty God conceals the Mahdi because people would persecute him if they knew. He conceals the Mahdi behind 70 veils. They keep saying, “This person cannot be the Mahdi (pbuh) because of this and that aspect.” They invent 70 different excuses. Almighty God conceals him with Hidden Knowledge: With the Secret Knowledge, with the knowledge of Unseen.

The system of the Mahdi is the most important incident ever since the creation of this world. All the prophets, ever since the Prophet Adam (pbuh) have drawn attention to the Mahdi. The Prophet Noah (pbuh), the Prophet Abraham (pbuh), the Prophet Moses (pbuh) have all drawn attention to the Mahdi (pbuh).

Azerbaijan is very dear to us. We are two different states of one nation. It is like our Rize, like our Konya. But it has been separated from us for now. That is an artificial separation. We will put aside this separation. Our Minister of Foreign Affairs is striving intensely to this end but that would be vouchsafed to Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh).

Satan has acquired an enormous army. The army of the Mahdi (pbuh) is very small, but you will see that small army will intellectually pull down the army of the antichrist. The army of the satan means the army of the antichrist.

At the time of the Mahdi no one would ever throw things at each other. Consequently there would be no need for even one anti-riot water cannon vehicle. Those vehicles will be used for watering gardens in the End Times, at the time of the Mahdi (pbuh).

In the time of the Mahdi (pbuh) no one would attempt to lynch someone else; there will only be beauty, love and sincerity. There will be fear of God and love of God everywhere we go. Now, people are hurting one another for no reason.

Tanks, cannon shells, water cannons; none of those will exist in the End Times. They will all be used for industrial purposes. There will be no weapons at the time of the Mahdi (pbuh).

The system of the Mahdi is a tutorage of love, tutorage of compassion; it is a tutorage of affection. Mahdi is a person who teaches the falsity of rebellion, rampancy and perversion; he is an individual who injects love into the hearts of people with great affection.

Striving to be the Mahdi, putting an effort to this end wouldn’t be enough. One needs to be born as the Mahdi. He should be assigned as the Mahdi in his destiny by God.

There will be a whole different Turkey in three-five years. The world will be completely different. The vigorous and strong structure of the system of the Mahdi is progressing step by step Alhamdulillah.

Unity can clearly be attained with the spirit of the system of the Mahdi. Everyone says; "let us be in unity." But no one would ever take such wishes seriously. Racism, sectarianism, regionalism, even district based discrimination is widespread. Since our Prophet (saas) is very well aware of this trouble on his ummah, he specifically charges his Mahdi with that task.

The duty of the Mahdi (pbuh) is to be a man of love. He teaches love and beauty; this is his profession. God makes one love, God makes one love all those He created. The person charged of making the world a place like heaven is called the Mahdi.

Mahdi (pbuh) is the person who performs everything that is beautiful, everything that is really very very beautiful. He is the one who will encourage the performance of beauty, the one who will perform beauty and who will make the world perform beauty.

One of the main characteristics of the system of the Mahdi (pbuh) is that it will not conflict with anyone’s interests. It won’t conflict with the interests of communists, neither of irreligious nor with the interests of Christians and Jews. Everyone will be at ease.

The main characteristic of the Mahdi (pbuh) is that he is a man of love. The one who enables peace, justice and love is the Mahdi (pbuh). One should keep away from those who talk about fighting. One should keep away from those who preach bloodshed.

Mahdi (pbuh) will be the one who opens the Holy Ark [of the Covenant], insha'Allah. The time for that is drawing near. The whole world will see the Holy Ark.

What is the task Moschiah, Hazrat Mahdi would be performing? His task is saving the world from irreligiousness, Darwinism, materialism, turning this world into a festive place, putting an end to the sorrows.

Young girls will live their lives fully as young girls and so will the young men. The group of the Mahdi (pbuh) will pull people out of their graves, so to speak. In the hadiths our Prophet (saas) says “He will rejuvenate the world that was ruined before,” for Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh).

Moshiach, Mahdi (pbuh) is the force that will weaken the strength of the satan. God has given that power, that means to him.

The best thing the CHP (Republican People’s Party) can do is to develop a spirit that addresses the spirit of the people, of the people of Anatolia, the spirit of our people.

It is completely different to cry out of fear of God, out of excitement. But if a person starts crying, saying, "Why did this happen like that?" that would be ascribing partners to God.

People die every day. We are living in the world, this is a place of testing. People get sick every day. How do they come up with the idea of mourning? There is no such thing in the Qur'an. There is no such understanding in Islam. It only has a place in idolatry, in the totemist mentality, in the belief system of the idolaters. This is a characteristic of pagan religions, but there is no such thing in Islam.
