Mourning was practiced by ancient Summerians, Akkadians, Hittites, Egyptians and other idol-worshiping tribes; it is forbidden in the Quran through a large number of verses and hadiths. It completely contradicts putting trust in God.

 - 
Those who do not mention God, who distance themselves from God feel a sense of agitation and tension; a groundless sense of fear, a considerable anxiety. God afflicts them with restlessness.

 - 
Through bigotry, satan has dealt a powerful blow that aims to destroy Islam. Under the influence of satan, bigots render prayer impracticable and ablution impossible to perform.

 - 
The love of God does not give way to laziness. A Muslim does not become lazy. He is daring, vivacious and vigilant at all times. Laziness gives rise to all kinds of troubles. May God forbid it.

Adnan Oktar
 - 
The fear and love of God the pious, faithful people posses reflect themselves on their faces, and is felt and seen as excitement. Yet it is impossible to witness this in a person with a hollow soul, body, and mind. Because they are careless as they have severed their ties with God. And as they are careless, they have lost their sense of excitement.
 (A9 TV; March 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Believers find excitement in the eagerness to carry out jihad, that is to say, struggling intellectually for the sake of Islam. If the hearts of people are plagued by laziness and carelessness, they grow weary and negligent. They withdraw into themselves as they do not concern themselves with religion, fear of God, or love of God. They do not feel any excitement that will reflect on their faces.

 - 
"Being thankful" in the Qur’an means "being a sincere Muslim." Otherwise, one would make profit by selling weed and thank God. Or one would oppress people, sell weapons and thank to God. This is not how it is. One can be thankful to God only by fully adhering to the Quran and being sincere.

 - 
Khidr (pbuh) tests people from time to time just as the way he tested the Prophet Moses (pbuh). People do not realize they are being tested by him. He not only tests but also educates people.
 (A9 TV; March 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Our Prophet (pbuh) had a piercing gaze. Why? Because his heart was always with God. He feared God. But polytheists would stare vacantly. Because they would only care for the fullness of their stomachs. They were like animals, even lower than animals. Therefore, they would have animal-like gazes.
 (A9 TV; March 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
The fear and love of God prevents people from gazing purposelessly. There can be no explanation for the purposeless gazes of those who fear God. The gazes of those who fear God are definitely clever, piercing and watchful.
 (A9 TV; March 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
There is a beauty, a profoundness, a delightfulness in the gaze of those whose hearts are with God. But the gaze of those whose hearts are careless and distant from God gives their true nature away. Almighty God informs us about this in the verse of the Quran: "If We wished, We would show them to you and you would know them by their mark.." What God refers to here by mark is their gaze. The reason behind their purposeless gazes is that their souls are hollow.

We love Bediuzzaman Said Nursi, but why do we love him? We love him because of his generosity, his devotion. Otherwise, what would be left behind? We love beloved brother Sungur [student of Said Nursi] for the suffering he went through. There are many other students of Said Nursi who we love dearly but we love them according to the sufferings they went through. We love less those who suffered less. We love more those who suffered more.
 (A9 TV; March 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
The Messenger of God had the honor to become who he was but the sufferings he went through were innumerable. Almighty God refers to Our Prophet (pbuh) as "My beloved one" as He loved him dearly. He loved Our Prophet because of his superiority.

 - 
When believers firmly adhere to the Quran, it is like sailing on an unsinkable and unswerving ship, they will never go astray.

 - 
Satan seeks to impede the mind. His most effective method to accomplish this is causing a sense of inertness. It can be readily seen in the eyes of many people. It causes an idle, dull look. Believers are like hawks. They will never give into such influence of satan.
 (A9 TV; March 5th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Satan affects people in many various ways. Among these effects, one of the worst is the sense of inertness. Believers should counter it through their will and wisdom.
 (A9 TV; March 5th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Those who abandon the path of Quran lose their sense of reason and judgment and ultimately, lose control. Believers will never allow satan to hatch such plots.

 - 
The main reason behind the troubles that plague the Islamic world is failure to comply with the Quran.

Turkey is not just another country. In the case of Turkey's separation, the Islamic Unity will fall apart. So will the unification of the Turkish world. We will never accept anything that will lead to this.

 - 
Lovelessness leads to malice. Lovelessness makes females and males unlovely. Vindictiveness, hatefulness and resentment give way to a lifeless appearance. The individual suffers the effects of this affliction personally, leading to his own ruin. In other words it is a self-destructive system.
