Hostility against Jews is not in line with Qur'an. Jews are children of Prophet Moses (pbuh); they have been loyal to him for thousands of years.

Ruthless enmity against Christians and Jews does not befit Muslims. God teaches that they are People of the Book and they should be shown compassion.

The provisions of the Qur'an are valid until the Day of Judgment. Those who allege that the verses about mercy and compassion have been annulled commit a great persecution. Claiming that the verses about love and mercy had been annulled, some bigots ban approaching Christians with compassion. None of the verses the Qur'an had been annulled. God decrees us to approach the People of the Book with compassion and mercy.

It would be against the Qur’an to call a Jew who accepts the prophethood of our Prophet (pbuh) an ‘infidel’.

It’s wrong to call Christians and Jews ‘infidels’. They are the People of the Book, with whom Muslims are allowed to marry and socialize.

We should protect and watch over the People of the Book, we should protect and watch over Christians. We should approach them with compassion. We will altogether annihilate the system of the antichrist (dajjal) spiritually. Hand in hand with the Christians and hand in hand with the Jews, insha'Allah. They also say that "Allah is One".

Let us embrace our Christian brothers and sisters fervently with love. Our brothers should protect and watch over them everywhere. In the streets, in the malls, they should love and respect them everywhere. They should thus keep their bonds of neighborhood strong. Allah wants us to treat Christians compassionately. Allah wants us to treat the People of the Book compassionately; so we should treat Jews compassionately as well.

Within the radical mindset there are some people who give a so-called sanctity to hatred towards Jews. Jews are People of the Book, God would not consent their being persecuted.

We used to live together with Jews, Armenians and Greeks as brothers. They are the People of the Book and are entrusted to us by God. Again with the establishment of the Turkish Islamic Union we will insha’Allah embrace all of them with love.

It's so fine that there are devout Orthodox, Jews and Muslims in Russia. It would be so fine to see synagogues and churches to be full of devout people.

God explained that not all Jews, but only the transgressors amongst them, were cursed. It’d be tyranny to say a community is cursed as a whole.

Muslims strive to save everyone, be it Christians, Jews, Wahabis, Shias or Buddhists. Muslims wish no one to ruin as it doesn’t comply with the Qur’an.

President Erdogan said that we are from the 'family of Abraham.' This is a statement in the Qur'an and Turkish people are also in this family.

Jews have been devout people, loyal to the Prophet Moses (pbuh) and God for 3,500 years. What a beautiful blessing for them. We are all children of the Prophet Abraham (pbuh).

The Mahdi movement exists in all books sent to the prophets. This is proof that the Mahdi system is a fact.

Prophet Abraham’s heart was always together with God; he was a lenient prophet. He used to ask all his needs from God.

Kindness, courtesy and being dignified were one of the most important moral traits of Prophet Abraham related in the Qur'an.

We have never been and will never be enemies to the children of the Prophet Moses, Jesus and Abraham. We love them all.

Both Muslims and Jews are the children of the Prophet Abraham. Turning a blind eye to these fights between brothers is not acceptable.

God tells us in the Qur’an that Jews have the right to be in Israel. All the children of Prophet Abraham (pbuh) will live in those lands in brotherhood.

The Prophet Moses (pbuh) preached to Pharaoh, and the Prophet Abraham preached to Nimrod. A Muslim will speak to and preach to anyone, be they atheist, communist or whatever.

Our Prophet (saas) was the most modern person of his time, the Prophet Abraham (pbuh) was the most modern person of his time. Some people imagine that struggling against modernity is a necessity of Islam. Satan deceives them and shows it as a wrongful path. Modernity is a blessing. Heaven is the most modern place the human mind can perceive of. Muslims should target modernity.

There is the need for this pest named the PKK, so that there will be a national awakening. No such awakening will ever take place without that pest. I mean without the Pharaoh, there would be no Moses. Without Nimrod, there would be no Abraham. Without the Antichrist, there would be no Mahdi.

Does the Prophet Abraham (pbuh) ever do anything cruel? No, he doesn't. He is a compassionate, merciful, gentle person. I mean he never engages in anything against Muslims. He always acted in favor of Muslims and there was goodness in every one of his acts. Such people are the people of guidance.

I always give priority to women. They need to be on the forefront at every issue.
