According to the hadith, the Mahdi (pbuh) is the sum of all the prophets. He is the last guardian, the greatest saint of all-time and pure in judgment. Almighty God appoints an Ulu'l Azm [The Resolute Prophets] prophet like Jesus Messiah (pbuh) as a vizier of the Mahdi. This shows how esteemed the Mahdi is.

The Islamic countries come together and hold meetings but most of the participants are reluctant. Without sincerity, candidness, no results will be achieved in these meetings. This system will not function without the Mahdi.

We are informed in the hadiths that the majority of Jews will embrace Islam and become Muslims at time of the Mahdi (pbuh).

Hadith informs that even enemies of the Mahdi (pbuh) will be embarrassed because of his compassion and goodness. He will have superior morality.

Our Prophet (pbuh) has given so much detail about the Mahdi (pbuh) that his life is described in profound detail.

According to the Jewish sources, Moshiach, in other words the Mahdi, will mend the whole world, thus people, altogether, will serve God.

According to Jewish sources, in the time of the Mahdi (pbuh), superstitions in Judaism will be eliminated.

Our Prophet (saas) says love for the Mahdi will be very strong in the world and the compassion of the Mahdi will enlighten even the darkest souls.

They are trying to set Muslims against each other by provoking the Turkish Nation into attacking ISIS. We will not fall for this. Of course, ISIS is on the wrong path. However, the Mahdi (pbuh) will put them on the right path. They will find the right path through education. We have never sought and will never seek their destruction, their annihilation. They should forget about it.

Antichrist aims for a Godless, irreligious, homosexual world. We will never let him. Antichrist won't succeed and will be defeated. You will see, he will vanish off the face of the earth. He will be utterly vanquished through the efforts of Jesus Messiah and the Mahdi (pbuh) by the will of God. We will destroy this sedition through wisdom and knowledge, love, truth, and law and legislation.

In the time of our Prophet, the families of the Companions did not want them to see our Prophet (saas); they made incredible pressure. In the time of the People of the Cave, the families of young people, their relatives and the majority of people were against religion and they put pressure on their children. Likewise, in the time of the Mahdi (pbuh) young people will follow the Mahdi despite their families’ and society’s pressure.

The irreligious try to intimidate Muslims. It is not becoming for a Muslim to accept being intimidated. The Companions were subjected to incredible torture and pressure of their families because they followed our Prophet (saas). They resisted all such pressure heroically. What makes a Muslim a hero and valiant is the sufferings he goes through. It is the ordeals he goes through for God’s approval. Those who leave Islam because they fear those who condemn them don’t deserve paradise in the hereafter.

We’re promoting the way of the Qur’an; the spirit of the Companions. It is modern, devout and compliant with human nature.

If you give fanaticism an inch, it takes a mile. It is very dangerous. The state must adopt a determined policy to spread modern thinking, a modern state structure and a modern conception of art. In other words, one must live by a modern Islam. What does modern mean? Like in the time of the Companions.

The Companions of our Prophet (saas) always strove for the sake of God. But the hypocrites always had excuses like ‘our houses are exposed' or ‘we would have come if we knew how’. However, if they were told that they would be given gold, they would have immediately obliged. That is because it would have served their interests. However, one's interests should always be in showing good morality; one should choose faith and reward from God instead of gold. Otherwise one would start to turn into an animal.

If you run after the transient world, God would make it constantly run away from you and the world would then become a trouble for you. However, the world would become beautiful with self-sacrificing people. For instance, our Prophet (saas) was very altruistic and selfless. His companions were very altruistic and selfless. None of them were self-seeking. Societies with self-seeking people collapse.

Some people entertain mistaken beliefs like Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) was poor and he ate a few handfuls of food in a day. On the contrary, God gave him wealth. Claiming that our Prophet (pbuh) lived a poor life is also slandering the companions, as none of them would let him live in need.

We are the radiant face of Islam for the whole world. When those who know Islam as a horrible, introverted, loveless system that has a grudge against women, that has turned life into a horror, see Islam as we live it, when they see Islam as it was lived at the time of the Companions, they feel an admiration for Islam. And they recognize that Islam is their salvation. Otherwise, they are all in misery.

I would never intervene in anyone's way of living. They may all live as they like as I have respect for all points of view.

I would never intervene in anyone's way of clothing and I would never ostracize a person due to his or her dress. I have respect and love for all.

Everything is created with God's command "Be."

Satan, the self, dissentious people, blood-shedders, warmongers, thieves, evil people; all are a part of the trial. "If it weren't for " some people say. They will always exist. If the trial exists, so will they. What you must do is to respond to them patiently through wisdom and willpower and defeat them.

Hypocrites have a foul conception of freedom. What they seek is that there will be no religion, no worship, and they will communicate with the irreligious and do snobbery to their hearts' content. They will abide by no leader; they will know no obedience or respect. Hypocrites despise all these.

What hypocrites like is being lumpen and snobbish. They like making insinuations, vileness and pettiness, making a scene, gossiping, and tale bearing. Their souls delight in evilness.

In some occasions, a person with hypocritical tendencies might mend his ways; hypocrisy does not get a hold in him. Lucky are those who mend their hypocritical ways. But those who do not will perish.
