People’s hearts should be cleansed with love, faith in God and education so that hate culture on social media can come to an end.

One cannot make people pious by merely telling them the Islamic jurisprudence [fıqh]. They should be taught about the facts of faith, about the miracles of the Quran. The issues should be explained scientifically. Both the mind and the heart have to be convinced at the same time.

Believers always think in favor of God and religion. Muslims cannot make an unfavorable analysis, but only favorable ones. They always assume the best [for God and believers]. But if a person is among disbelievers or is an atheist, he might think unfavorably about God and religion; however, after having faith in God, a believer cannot continue to do so. They should always give the benefit of the doubt and think positively.

In the afterlife, those advocating creation through evolution will not be able to explain the beauty of a horse, or the creation of even the single one of its mane hair.

The most basic issue for human beings is faith related issues. Our brothers must essentially dwell on faith related issues.

The wisdom in DNA’s enzyme is amazing. Wonders of God are uncountable.

Wherever we look there is the seal of God. On cats, flowers, rabbits, fruits, there is the seal of God’s artistry.

God created everything with a measure. Even on a single camellia there is amazing artistry and knowledge.

God created everything with a measure. Even on a single camellia there is amazing artistry and knowledge.

Our body cells catching atoms one by one, and getting the iron, zinc, and calcium they need just at the right amount is a fact of belief by its own.

It is miraculous that some organisms carry venom in their bodies without themselves getting harmed. It is lethal for others but does nothing to the host. This is a miracle of God.

I cannot understand how some people can look at the flowers and deny God. Flowers carry the mark of God's beauty.

Muslims are meticulous and reverent on topics related to religion and faith. Making jokes on religious topics is not proper.

There can be no joke regarding religious issues. A Muslim is obliged to reflect on his state at death bed and his state in the Hereafter.

The natural weaknesses of human beings should not be used to make jokes.

Jokes should always be about honoring people. A joke that makes people uncomfortable is not a joke.

Accepting jokes about religion as normal and ordinary only shows how far removed a person is from religion. A believer would never accept that.

Making a joke is not something easy. It requires intelligence, care and will-power. The jokes most people make generally aim to offend and humiliate the other party. These cannot be regarded as jokes. Such a language would be impertinent. Behaviors aimed to nourish one’s own arrogance and disgrace the other side are unacceptable.

Religion and sacred values can never be a matter of mockery. People can make jokes on ordinary daily issues, but we do not want anyone making jokes about religion. I mean making jokes in matters that would offend 90 percent of the country is not acceptable.

Making jokes and speaking in a mocking tone is not acceptable while talking about God and religion. Religion cannot be made a topic of entertainment.

Gaiety is a quality. Happiness is a quality. Joking is a quality. Being sociable and easy is a quality. For instance kindness, courtesy is a quality.

Turkey's becoming an ultra-modern country is crucially important.

Religion shows the path to live a sane, reasonable life.

Turkey will be loved by the whole world when she achieves the ultra-modern, enlightened understanding of Islam as in the time of the Companions.

A loveless person is a selfish person, which takes away the beauty of that person.
