Modern Islam is the system in which people are friends with one another, where women are free and music and art flourish.

Modern Islam means the Islam that was lived at the time of our Prophet (saas).

Pure Islam - easy, joyful and beautiful as in the time of the companions, who followed only the Qur’an - is the real Islam.

Ladies were truly free only during the time of Prophet Mohammed (pbuh). They will find true freedom once again at the time of Hz. Mahdi (as).

Left-leaning people oppose the superstitious ways of the bigoted system. They do not know the modern, liberal, enlightened religion in the Qur’an.

Now we are in a period when Islam proceeds to move forward and a modern understanding of true Islam based on the teachings of the Qur’an spreads among the young.

Religiousness is on the rise. We see that young people have embraced the loving, modern and intellectual understanding of the Qur’an and become more religious.

The behavior of some scholars preaching Islam are bereft of quality giving the impression that high quality, wise and modern people should stay away from religion. Yet the fact is Islam itself is wise, modern and high-quality.

The new generation is not under the influence of bigotry. They love modern and enlightened devoutness.

True moral values of the Qur’an are prevailing in Turkey. Modern religiousness is spreading against the superstitious ways of the bigoted understanding of religion.

Ataturk wanted the true Islam as described in the Qur’an to prevail. He was a perfect Ottoman gentleman, was very classy and modern.

Being able to show that Islam can be lived in a modern way is clear proof that Islamic morality is beginning to take hold around the world. This is why some are alarmed.

There is a plan to erase Islam. But we will foil that plot with the Islam of the companions of the Prophet (pbuh); the true Islam that is modern, enlightened and refined.

All the prophets were the most progressive, modern personalities of their times. It is irrational to regard modernity as a bad thing.

Sectarian divides have devastated the Islamic world. The Islam as lived by the Companions of our Prophet (saas) will make the world an incredibly beautiful place.

The Islam of the companions is the true Islam. The mentality that opposes art, quality, beauty, freedom will be never successful.

Our brothers with a traditionalist mindset suffer in vain, because they wrongly believe modernism isn’t compatible with religion. Modernism and religion are closely related.

Companions of the Prophet (saas) were very curious about the Mahdi, asking questions to our Prophet (saas) who explained Mahdi in great detail.

We’ve been instrumental in the prevalence of modern enlightened Muslim view in 99% of Turkey. Everyone saw that bigoted system isn't livable.

There is nothing wrong with Trump mentioning radical Islam. He means an understanding of Islam away from the Qur'an.

Islamic Union will not be based on bigotry. An enlightened understanding of Islam based on modernity, high quality and arts will prevail.

Some people entertain mistaken beliefs like Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) was poor and he ate a few handfuls of food in a day. On the contrary, God gave him wealth. Claiming that our Prophet (pbuh) lived a poor life is also slandering the companions, as none of them would let him live in need.

We’re promoting the way of the Qur’an; the spirit of the Companions. It is modern, devout and compliant with human nature.

A Darwinist education system removes compassion and respect from hearts. This one-sided Darwinist education should not continue.

A hypocrite is like a hound; they immediately find the wicked. Muslims attentively track hypocrites and disclose the wicked.
