Unity can clearly be attained with the spirit of the system of the Mahdi. Everyone says; "let us be in unity." But no one would ever take such wishes seriously. Racism, sectarianism, regionalism, even district based discrimination is widespread. Since our Prophet (saas) is very well aware of this trouble on his ummah, he specifically charges his Mahdi with that task.

There will be a whole different Turkey in three-five years. The world will be completely different. The vigorous and strong structure of the system of the Mahdi is progressing step by step Alhamdulillah.

The burden that bigotry and radicalism brings about is very weighty. It ruins the society, it ruins people; it makes countries totally ruined.

At the time of the Mahdi no one would ever throw things at each other. Consequently there would be no need for even one anti-riot water cannon vehicle. Those vehicles will be used for watering gardens in the End Times, at the time of the Mahdi (pbuh).

There will be no need for the police, for the anti-riot water cannon vehicles; there will be no need for tear-gas in the time of the Mahdi (pbuh). Why is that? That is because love will prevail in the time of the Mahdi(pbuh). Love does not prevail right now; violence and terror is running rampant.

First God shows us troubles and evil thoroughly; later on He will show us pureness, superiority and beauty. At the moment the world is a living hell. A little later, the world will turn into the Heaven.

We are spreading religiousness in Turkey but we will not allow radicalism.

The struggle against radicalism is given with the Qur’an.

Radicals cannot succeed in attaining quality and because they cannot attain quality, they try to put it out of sight.

The system of the Mahdi is a very beautiful activity of the brain which destroys the spirit of desolation and desperation by instilling a vibrant hope, lively excitement and vivacious fervor to the world. We will see this result, insha'Allah, more clearly in 10 or 20 years.

The system of the Mahdi gives determination, fervor and excitement to the world. It gives a spirit to the Muslim world. Or else the vast majority of Muslims would very easily be consumed in the swamp of lethargy, regret and hopelessness.

Almost every religious community, every congregation can easily go on with their path by taking heart from the system of the Mahdi and by fortifying their faith and fervor right now. Or else a great mass would have caved in and would have lost their resolution long ago.

The owners of aesthetics and beauty prevail in the world. Those who love women would prevail in the world. Some people assume that very nice results could be attained with radicalism but the fact is that no result can ever be attained with radicalism.

You cannot see even one article from the radicals that talks about aesthetics, about love even for a single day. They do not talk about love not even for a day. Actually they find love difficult.

The vast majority of the Turkish people are Ataturkist, intellectual people who have progressive thoughts, who like freedoms, who understand Islam as it was in the time of the Companions, people who advocate modern Islam. All our youth are modern. Consequently it would not be possible to enforce bigoted, fanatical understanding of Islam in Turkey.

They have invented a new religion from made-up hadiths and they are calling it Islam. In fact the religion Qur’an preaches us is called Islam. A religion that consists of made-up hadiths cannot be called Islam. That is a polytheistic religion.

Islam is portrayed as a religion of terror. This is the reason behind this dislike. They call it Islamophobia but actually this is terror-phobia; people are afraid of terror. You are talking about a system of terror and you are presenting it as if it is Islam. You have named terror as Islam. Actually there is compassion, mercy, love, arts, aesthetics, science, beauty and everything beautiful in Islam.

Because of the bigoted mindset Islamophobia appeared in the whole world.

People are preaching religion wrongly. They are talking of it as a horrible and inextricable system. Praise be to God, being the radiant face of Islam, we have spoiled that plot of the satan. Or else Islamaphobia is a system that could annihilate all Muslims.

The Western deep states, particularly the British deep state, have developed a new trick, a new method; they are trying to portray all Muslims as terrorists. They are working hard to ensure that.

The British deep state sought to push Muslims towards ISIS, Al-Qaeda and create a terrorist bloc thoroughout the world so that they could say, “Muslims are all terrorists and all terrorists are the same, so let’s just kill them all." In other words, they are trying make it look as though all Muslims are terrorists. This is a serious danger.

Some people rendered the Quran impossible to practice. They spread Islamophobia. In many parts of the world, people have become afraid of and hateful towards Islam and Muslims. The reason behind this is the traditionalist Orthodox Islamic conception. We will eliminate this conception through knowledge and the truths of the Quran.

Most people do not realize that our intellectual works and modern understanding of Islam have set a barrier against Islamophobia. We abolished the tasteless Muslim model that is in enmity against people, his own community or himself even and showed them the pure and enlightened understanding of Islam according to the Qur’an.

There's no rajm [stoning] punishment in the Qur'an. They present it as if it exists in order to spread Islamophobia, especially in Europe.

If one feels frantic with sorrow for a person who's gone to the Sight of God, who's gone to His Heaven; if one cries his eyes out grieving that means he doesn't appreciate what God created; that means he is rebellious against God, may God forbid. But if he thanks God for what He created, if he praises Him, if he welcomes this ultimate union, his meeting His Lord with joy, if he welcomes passing to Heaven; that is a characteristic of a Muslim. The other is the characteristic of idolaters.
