Keeping a straight face, keeping silent, constantly sulking, being worn out and exhausted; those acts would make the satan smile, they would make the satan rejoice. A Muslim would never act in that way. That would be unlawful and unbecoming in the religion.

Most of the people are being brought up far removed from religion, removed from the love of God and the fear of God. Many of them are ruthless and cruel. It would be unacceptable to leave innocent, angelic children to the streets all by themselves.

It is completely different to cry out of fear of God, out of excitement. But if a person starts crying, saying, "Why did this happen like that?" that would be ascribing partners to God.

It is not right to pick a side among Muslims. There should only be alliance, unity, brotherhood in between Muslims. Anything on the contrary would be religiously unlawful.

When a person yields to satan’s instigations, he would be responsible for that act. That is because the scheming of satan is always feeble. With his faith, a Muslim would not follow it. Consequently saying; “satan did this, I am not to blame,” would not be acceptable. That would be an offense.

Almighty God gives a grandeur stemming from faith. That is a unique characteristic of Muslims. All the companions of our Prophet had grandeur; our Prophet, the Messenger of God (saas) had grandeur; our sheikh, our Sultan Sheikh Nazim Al-Qubrusi also has grandeur.

Saying, “Oh Lord, what can I ever be? I cannot draw too close to you and I cannot love you very much,” would be blasphemy. God has opened the hearts of men infinitely to Himself. There is no limit to man’s power of drawing closer to God; one can get closer to God as much as he/she wants.

If there is no art, no quality, then build as many bridges, as many roads as you like, and nothing would stick. Art, aesthetics, faith, joy, merriment, fear of God, love for God should be everywhere.

A person who fears God would become very wise and would be very meticulous about what is religiously lawful and what is not and all his attitudes would be very proper and balanced. When one doesn't fear God, may God forbid, that instantly reflects on his behaviors. He starts to say whatever comes to his mind and acts however he likes. When one fears God however, he would act very selectively, very meticulously and very beautifully. A Muslim would keep away from being egotistical and selfish.

If you teach people persecution, they'd come up and apply persecution. You should teach people compassion, reason, methods of talking and persecution and scientific proofs. Above all else teach people love of God, fear of God.

Fear of God is required for love; love of God is required. Love is not for the bone and flesh; the manifestations of God are loved. What would you love in someone if you simply think that person as someone who will die and be diminished? The Infinite One would be loved and that Infinite One is God and one can only feel love for another as a manifestation of God.

One needs to look and admire the rich details in God's creating. Then the love one feels for God would increase even further. When love increases so does the fear of God. When fear of God increases, so does your submission to God. When your submission to God increases, it would be as if your nerves are taken. Your mind would be at ease and you would be very much relieved. You would feel a sense of relief, a sense of contentment and ease insha'Allah.

It is clearly understood that the year 2015 will be a year in which terror and pains will be experienced without love, without the fear of God, without mercy. These incidents will go on until God draws attention to the system of the Mahdi. This will go on until people see the system of the Mahdi as a means for salvation.

In the Qur'an, God talks about the torments in Hell to scare those who are rebellious against Him.

They cannot attain anything with jealousy. As they feel jealous, God increases His blessings upon Muslims even more. And He takes away the blessings those jealous ones have.. He makes them even more scrunched, more scorched as time passes. They become even more introverted, they feel depressed, they turn into loveless, compassionless, affectionless, heartless sick people with no profundity, may God forbid.

God bestows bad-tempered, grumpy, snappish people whom everyone hates upon those people with darkened hearts. And He bestows loving, radiant people whose hearts are full of love and compassion to Muslims, to people with beautiful manners, to people who love others. That is how it is in this world and that is how it will be in the Heaven.

God gives very beautiful blessings to those who have faith, to those who believe. Almighty God enables them to experience human love in the full sense; He enables them to live compassion, fervor, passion in the complete sense. He makes them live all sorts of profound feelings.

A Muslim should apologize when he makes a mistake. God likes this behavior. That is an attitude God approves. Those who are after the approval of God should do this. They should say; "My Lord, forgive me for what I've done." They should say; "Astagfirullah, Astagfirullah, Astagfirullah." God sees this as a beauty.

God would not give comfort to a nation who doesn't love Him. For those who love Him, God would give comfort. France should look for salvation in faith, in the love of God and in the fear of God.

Evil people are also benefiting from the blessings God gives to Muslims. I mean originally those blessings are not for them, they are created for sincere Muslims and these people are benefiting from them on the side. In the Hereafter, those blessings will be taken out of their reach.

There will be slanders and curses casted upon the system of the Mahdi, upon the Muslims. Muslims should not be affected by that, they should not be afraid of that.

Religiously unlawful acts put people in distress. It would tear them into pieces. Knowing that something is religiously unlawful, it would not be possible to do it carefree. But because weakness of faith makes a person's body paralyzed, because it makes the flesh rot away, such a person would not be affected by it and would easily do unlawful acts. Actually it is impossible for an alive and fresh mind and body to do something religiously unlawful. A person can only do unlawful things if he is dead inside. A lively person would never be able to do that as it would be an unbearable pain for him. That is not something that a Muslim could ever do.

Solely saying "I love God" would not be enough, fear of God is very important. A person who has no fear of God would proud and arrogant. When one feels fear of God, a perfect morality would be formed. Such a person wouldn't be arrogant and egocentric, he would be loving and honest.

God is Ghaffur and All-Compassionate, All-Merciful. A Muslim, one who fears God would not go to Hell. One who fears God would behave as religion commands anyway. There would be no other possibility. These people are created as Muslims anyway.

If you have faith you need to be transparent and sincere. Only then would people who look at things sincerely and transparently approach you with love as well.
