A lack of art is one of the main things that has brought ruin upon the Middle East.

According to the Qur’an, it is not unlawful for women to wear décolleté in safe environments or to speak about religion when women are present.

After our Prophet (saas) has passed, Islam strayed from its true form and became a religion of shirk (idolatry). As a result, the dajjal took away art, quality, joy and life away from Muslims.

Allah sevgisi olmadan sanat olmaz. Sanat, marifet ve ittifak Mehdiyet'in ruhudur. Her yerin sanatla güzelleştiğini göreceğiz

Art cannot flourish in a society that is opposed to freedom and happiness of ladies.

Art is beautiful and meaningful with young people. Investment in art is investment in the youth.

Art is love. Beauty, art and love go hand in hand. Everything that encourages love also encourages art.

As people assume that religion divorces people from social life, high quality and beauty, they are surprised to see us living according to true Islam as explained in the Qur’an.

Assuming that Islam kills all the good aspects of life like arts and science, people distance themselves from religion. However Islam is joy and life itself. People say they will live by religion when they grow old because they believe Islam is a system that will depress them. But Islam removes all the rules that oppress people.

At the basis of the West’s negative perceptions of Muslims lie the superstitions of the traditionalist orthodox system. Although there is no such commandment in the Qur’an, the traditional orthodox system demands killing those who drink alcohol, those who do not pray or those do not give alms. It is understandable for the Western world to be wary of that.

Believers do not ask for any wage for their efforts in the Path of God and never expect anything in return. Follow those who do not ask you for any wage and who have received guidance. (Qur’an, 36: 21)

Bigots preach a religion that is impossible to live by as if it is Islam, but they don’t practice it as they preach either. In fact, Islam in the Qur’an is very easy to live by.

Bigots present such an understanding of Islam that people are forced to choose between life or Islam and thus masses are allianeted from Islam.

Every day is like holiday for those who believe. Those who do not serve religion get tired both spiritually and physically.

I do not take any royalty for my books or other publications. It is religiously unlawful to preach religion in return for payment.

I have a sincere and beautiful dialogue with young people. This is something that no other religious scholar has. Since we present a life style that young people want, they approach us with love and admiration.

It is religiously unlawful and a horrible practice to preach Islam in return for payment.

If a young girl doesn't feel safe to travel alone and fears love, that is a sign of serious lack of civilization for that country.

People shouldn’t have to work non-stop. Fewer working hours is a sign of civilization.

Turkey’s aspiration to be a modern civilization actually corresponds to surpassing countries in which arts, aesthetics and high quality way of living is prevalent.

Asking for modernity, high quality and art is a rightful demand. Art, refinement and high quality are essential and irreplaceable. If on top of all this, women are oppressed in these societies this is drifting to barbarism.

Islam is purity, cleanliness and quality. People with the highest quality and highest civilization should come to mind when Islam is mentioned.

Connections with Europe are very important. Europe's civilization is very good, their understanding of art is nice. Europeans are very classy, polite and decent people.

A believer considers serving Islam as a blessing but hypocrites don’t want to serve Islam. They follow their own evil religious law. Living alone, being stingy and feckless, leading an aimless, vain life, any act of moral turpitude and lying are all acceptable in the evil religious understanding of hypocrites.

A believer could never understand the spirit of a hypocrite or an unbeliever. It is a way of life that believers do not know and would never understand.
