God relates that Muslims pray to Him to send them a guardian at times of hardship. Asking for a spiritual leader is a provision of the Qur'an.

Muslims pray for being guided to the straight path, knowledge, guidance from God and beauties; not to the path of those who are misguided.

Throughout the history, small groups of people were able to affect large crowds. Good people are few but can guide big crowds. In every era, God made small communities means for the guidance of the world and made small communities victorious.

Some make use of the disintegration of the Islamic world and persecute Muslims including women and children. The Islamic world should right away come together in unity around a spiritual leader. If Muslims had a spiritual leader and they united around him, issues like radicalism or terrorism would be resolved and peace would be established.

It is God Who enriches people. And it is God Who guides people to the true path.

In the Qur'an, God states that Muslims must have a spiritual leader. Feigning ignorance about the path shown by God is unbecoming of a Muslim.

God explains in the Qur’an that Muslims should have a spiritual leader and that Muslims should pray so that God sends a spiritual leader.

Throughout history, Muslims have always had a leader. Muslims got stronger and victorious with leadership of a spiritual leader.

One shouldn't say to someone who mended his ways, his intentions, "You are a hypocrite; you have always been a hypocrite." If he shed himself of his hypocrisy, then we should take their final disposition as basis. It is a good thing, you should be happy about him. If you are going to talk about the past, what kind of person were you? You were not aware of religion or faith either; God put you on the true path. When a person mends his ways, he is accepted. If God accepts him, then you have no other choice.

Mahdi is the only spiritual leader both Shia and Sunni will embrace. Islamic world will only unite around the Mahdi.

Imam Rabbani states that guidance will spread throughout the world by means of the Mahdi.

The Mahdi will not be a political leader. The Mahdi will be a leader who teaches love and ensures justice.

At the time when Mahdi is in this world, he will be the source of all love, enlightenment and true guidance.

God commands Muslims in the Holy Qur'an to pray for a spiritual leader at difficult times. Asking for the Mahdi is advised in the Holy Qur'an.

This is the time of the Mahdi. It is clear that God’s name ‘Al-Hadi’ (The One, Who continually shows the right way) is surrounding the youth.

The whole world sees at the moment how Muslims suffer because they don't have a spiritual leader.

At the time of the Mahdi (pbuh), God's Name Al-Hadi (The Guide) prevails in the world. As Mahdi (pbuh) passes away, God's name "Al-Hadi" will be withdrawn from the world and His Name that causes people go astray will start to manifest itself. Jesus Messiah will live for a short period of time in this world anyway and after he passes away, people will go crazy. The world will turn into a living hell.

For a person who has attained true faith and submission to God, life becomes incredibly beautiful. That person becomes eternal.

Muslims cannot unite without a leader in the Islamic world. Muslims must unite around a spiritual leader to save the whole Muslim world.

While Freemasons, Catholics, Orthodox Christians and all other faiths have their own leaders, some people claim that Muslims should not have such a leader. That is against reason and logic.

I have never claimed, and will never claim to be, the Mahdi. If I had such a claim I would have appeared on TV with a turban and would not be in contact with women, I would not have become a Freemason and I would not criticize the traditionalist understanding of Islam prevalent in the Islamic world. I have never been a person claiming to be the Mahdi and will never make such a claim. A physical resemblance is not a proof of the Mahdi. The only way we would recognize the Mahdi is when we see Islam prevailing in the world and a spiritual leader heading Muslims, the unity of Islam established and Jesus putting that person to the front to lead the prayer. We would then say, “God knows the truth, this person is the Mahdi.”

May Almighty God wrap the whole world with His radiance. May our Lord manifest Himself with His Name 'Al-Hadi' (The Guide), inshaAllah. May He damn the antichrist and ruin him, insha'Allah. May God annihilate the system of the antichrist, insha'Allah.

May God wrap us all around with radiance. May God make us radiant. May He give us guidance. May He open our minds. May God protect us from the evils of satan. May God protect us from wickedness. May God grant the feeling of safety to our hearts. May God make us wealthy. May He make us strong. May God make Islam prevail. May God show us the Mahdi. May He make Mahdi (pbuh) appear. May God make us students of the Mahdi (pbuh) and Jesus Messiah (pbuh).

Sometimes God gives a rank to some people, gives them power, gives them means. You would not be a person of guidance if you say, "Why did God give him such a rank? Why did He give that person that easiness?" A person who -May God forbid - questions God would not be a person of guidance. One should say, "There is a goodness, a benevolence behind this. God knows but I don't."

Putin needs to be very meticulously protected. Putin is a stout-hearted person; he also shouldn’t be left alone.
