When the one you preach religion to does not come to faith, your rank will advance even further. If he is less excited than you are, your rank will advance even further. You have nothing to lose.

One would ask for a long life to serve Islam. Without that service for Islam, life could turn into trouble for one. One might have a long life but end up in the depths of Hell as a result. An auspicious, long life is important. If that auspiciousness, those good deeds are lost, if one does not serve on the path of God, a long life would do him no good. A long life is important only to serve Islam.

One finds peace and tranquility in Islam. Islam would bring one relief, it would provide friends and companions, wealth and riches, it would bring about plenty. You can live in peace with everyone. Unbelief, on the other hand, is like a poison, it brings about pain and suffering. One grovels in unbelief.

With faith, you commit to Almighty God Who is the Owner of everything and you feel wondrously at ease. For Muslims, meteorites are wandering in the sky like lambs. But for an irreligious person they are horrifying monsters. For instance, the magma underneath us is like lukewarm milk for us. But it is like hell for an irreligious person, a sizzling hell that would burn them. Our hearts are at ease because we fear only God. We know how God would command it; we know that the magma is under the command of God. We know that every single atom in the magma is invoking the name of God and that it all submits to God.

No one would ever dare to act disdainfully in the Sight of God. They cannot respond in such a disdainful manner. God says, 'I will not let them speak in the Hereafter.' God says, 'slink away into it and do not speak to Me.' After God tells them not to speak, they cannot speak any more. Their tongues will be tied, God paralyzes their tongues.

I love every Muslim because they say, "La Ilaha Illa Allah Muhammad Ar-Rasul Allah." If they have a fault, I correct them by talking to them, not by bombing them, not by killing them. Was our Prophet (saas) preaching the message of God in Sud'Ukaz (the Market of Ukaz) by killing them? He was talking to them one by one. There were hypocrites, Buddhists, unbelievers, Masons around and he used to talk to every one of them.

Unbelievers and hypocrites demonstrate herding behavior, just like the animals. They act jointly. Just like reindeers, bison herds, unbelievers behave in herds as well. When they see a danger coming, they attack like a bison herd. Unbelievers behave in herds like that as well.

God gives abundance and relief onto those who strive on His Path and casts troubles and problems on those with ill-will, as you can see. God opens the way for those striving on the good path. That is a miracle. God eases the way for those who want to advance on His path.

Weakness of faith renders one nonchalant. Such a person would not have the enthusiasm for spreading Islam, they would not have the strength to fear God. They only go after their own interests and their own problems. That is a grave problem.

If you believe in Islam and the Qur'an, unbelief would certainly be defeated. God states in the Qur'an that unbelief would certainly be defeated. Lenin was defeated, Marx was defeated. Darwin was defeated; they all have been defeated. The PKK will be defeated as well.

God does not want us to have only medium wisdom while preaching Islam and disseminating His Message. He wants us to have superior wisdom. Islam would not be disseminated with a mediocre rationality and wisdom; that is because some anti-Islam fronts are in a struggle against Muslims in an ambitious alliance by advocating numerous other philosophies.

In order to set our conscience in motion, God shows us inoffensive people being oppressed and killed, being burned. If we do not act on our good conscience we would be committing a crime and that is unacceptable. We will serve Islam with all our might.

It is a religious obligation to wipe unbelievers off the face of this world. But of course this is done with knowledge, with information, with love, with laws and the legal system. Weapons should be kept, not with the intention of using them, but as a deterrent force.

An insincere person will try to see Muslims as bad people and unbelievers as good people; he begins to turn everything upside down in his mind. But when a Muslim sees the existence of God with all its glory, which happens naturally when a person looks around himself sincerely, he will immediately want to follow the wisdom in the Qur'an.

If no one ever objected to us as we preached the religion, if everyone accepted everything we said, supported us, praised us, what do you think would happen in the Hereafter? The reward would be much less. But if there is objection, if you are working and making an effort despite that objection, the reward will be immense. God creates resistance, a lot of resistance, only so that Muslims will be more greatly rewarded . It is a gift of God to Muslims.

The Prophet Moses (pbuh) preached to Pharaoh, and the Prophet Abraham preached to Nimrod. A Muslim will speak to and preach to anyone, be they atheist, communist or whatever.

Our Prophet (pbuh) spoke with Christians and with Jews. He was friends with them. He spoke and preached to pagans and idol worshipers. That is what Islam requires.

What kind of interpretation of Islam is it if you do not preach to atheists and Darwinists? Who are we meant to command good and forbid evil to? Who are we meant to struggle against? Muslims have a duty to talk about Islam to Jews and Christians, known as the People of the Book, to atheists, to pagans and to everyone, in the kind of language they can understand. That is God’s command. You cannot talk about Islam using hostile language, only through love.

Almighty God wants us to be in a state of hope and fear. He says, ‘Do not say your conscience is clear and you will not go to hell.’ Because He speaks of people who become Muslims after being unbelievers, but who then fall back into unbelief, and then become Muslims again. In other words, God can take one’s soul and later give it back. He can make that happen. May God forbid. Feeling certain of something does not mean it is true.

Living by Islam means beginning to live entirely in accordance with one’s conscience. It means entirely abandoning the mentality of denying the existence of God.

One feels a little bit admiration for unbelief and that admiration ruins him, it burns him out. For instance, he emulates their style on the internet and that consumes him. Or he relishes their unlawful way of living and wants to slide towards it, even if just a tad.

When a characteristic of unbelief smears a Muslim's character, it makes him suffer a lot. When a little bit of unbelief smears one's character, sufferings and distress start. He feels suffocated and fidgety but doesn't know why. Actually, that distress stems from his sliding towards unbelief.

Unbelief is immensely troublesome, it is outrageously distressful. It tears one's heart out. Islam, on the other hand, is refreshing and easy. Both your head and your heart will be clear and sound.

The more hardships suffered, the more the good deeds acquired would be. The difficulties Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) encounters are countless. Every single hardship encountered is a step ahead. For instance, think about a 1,000 kilometer-long ladder, 1,000 kilometers of ascending steps; one climbs up incessantly and the spiritual ranks he attains elevate incessantly.

Eat, drink and travel; anyone can do that. There will be hardships, there will be illnesses, there will be difficulties, there will be troubles and scourges and you will love God deeply just the same against all odds. That is what Almighty God loves the most.
