In a world of hatred and cruelty, we keep talking about the importance about love, compassion and forgiveness. We’re the only group with a reasonable, compassionate approach to counter the damaging rhetoric of traditional, orthodox Muslims.

The traditionalist, bigoted system is horrible, trying to drag everything and everyone else into it. We will never follow that horrible system.

Darwinist education combined with the pressure of bigots, is making young people unhappy. An intellectual stance against both is crucial.

It is important to approach those with orthodox views with compassion. Some people wrongly think their bigoted system is religion. They’re wrong.

Some rightist, traditionalist people condemn themselves to a very difficult life for no reason. This is not what God wants.

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

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

The majority of our conservative, orthodox brothers are taken aback when they hear that the Qur’an is enough as the source of religion. They should cling to the Qur’an, without having any doubts that it is the sole guide. The Qur’an is sufficient as a guide. Everything is explained in the Qur’an. Saying anything to the contrary would be a sin.

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.

Some people confuse the dark world of radicalism with true religion and try to defend it. It is not what God wants. True Islam is the opposite of radicalism.

I never adopt a destructive tone towards anyone. Although I don't agree with them on many things, I still respect people with traditional orthodox beliefs and I won’t stay silent if they are mistreated.

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

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

Islam means modernity, high quality and love. Muslims are very well kept; they laugh and have fun to the fullest as they like. Those who claim otherwise are wrong.

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

Modern Islam is the way Muslims lived at the time of our Prophet (saas) and his companions. Modern Islam was the way the Prophet Solomon (pbuh), the Prophet Abraham (pbuh) and all other prophets lived at their times.

God is the Creator of everything. In the Hereafter, He will hold us to account for every gift, every blessing, including the beauty of a fruit, its vitamins, its mineral content and its perfect packing.

One of my favorite quotes from President Erdoğan is, “We are here to be servants to this nation, not to be a master.”

The British deep state used the narrative of ‘transparent religious communities’ as a tactic to isolate the government.

May God make me and my brothers and sisters all students to Hazrat Mahdi (as) insha’ Allah.

My ultimate goal is love; loving God and loving God’s manifestations.

The hate culture is very widespread, but soon will be replaced by love. We will teach loveless people the importance of love. Such people don't even like themselves. Our brothers and sisters should not pay attention to such loveless people.

One should always try to make amends first. It is unacceptable to cut ties when you can fix things.

People negatively affect each other’s faith. They are negatively influenced by those who have a weak faith, when in fact, those irreligious people are created by God for a special reason. They should know that it is only God and them. Their connection to God is what matters and should be very strong. What others do will not matter.

Our Prophet (pbuh) was the most modern person of his time. Modernism, art and quality are crucial parts of life.
