God says, “There is no compulsion in religion.” This provision outlaws all kinds of impositions. A Muslim enjoins the good and then leaves the person to his own conscience.

Since I believe it is haram to charge a fee for explaining religion, I receive no royalties from any of my books. One should not take money for conveying the message of faith.

Gold is not made unlawful in the Qur’an. There is nothing in the Qur’an that bans wearing gold. Our Prophet (saas) might have taken certain temporary economic or moral precautions at the time, but gold is not banned.

It is definitely not wrong to listen to music in Ramadan. Some people are hurting themselves by making things unlawful which God made lawful.

According to the Qur’an, it is not unlawful for women to wear décolleté in safe environments or to speak about religion when women are present.

Bigots who claim that it is religiously unlawful for women and men to be in the same place are not telling the truth according to the Qur’an.

Everything beautiful in life exists in Islam but in the bigoted understanding of religion there is no laughing, music, dancing or painting.

Irreligious people also have concepts of virtue, family, goodness because they learn it from religion. Religion reigns in society.

One cannot reach success through a religiously unlawful way.

Performing prayers (salat) turns people into noble and precious beings. There are only a few things declared unlawful by God; all else is lawful and acceptable in religion.

Prophets cannot render anything lawful or unlawful outside the Qur’an. Our Prophet’s (saas) sunnah is the Qur’an.

Sculptures or paintings are not unlawful according to the Qur’an. Such claims are based on superstitions.

When you love someone, you don't act curtly towards that person, you don't act stingy, you do not act egotistically; you look out for that person's comfort, you have that person's best interests at heart.

Some people talk within the lines "But how are we to find the money?" about helping those who are in need. God would bring plenty in folds. The good deeds that will be attained is important, attaining the good pleasure of God is important. If you attain the good pleasure of God, He would give you riches. If you do not act in a way to attain His good pleasure and are stingy instead, God would take away everything you have and you would lose all your goods and possessions.

The whole world is in misery right now because of their stinginess. There are a handful of wealthy people and they constitute, let us say, 1% of the world's population and the other 99% is in poverty. As the manifestation of the Qur'anic verses, the whole world is in misery. If they give up that tight-fisted attitude, the whole world would become rich.

How could a loving person be stingy? He would of course be very generous and distribute all he has in the path of God. When a person loves, he becomes crazy for the love of God. He would only have eyes for the love of God and he would say, "What else would I do with all these materials things?" He searches and becomes madly in love with the love of God.

God is the One Who gives goods to people. If people attempt to keep all they are given as their own possessions, the body becomes gangrene, the whole system becomes gangrene. The social system, life becomes gangrene, economic crisis starts and people plunge into afflictions.

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.

A Muslim acts only for the good pleasure of God.

A person that is aware of their existence, their soul, will inevitably understand God and become a believer.

A person who always listens to his conscience would not be a blind follower of his desires.

A single thread from a carpet contains the genetic code of the sheep it comes from. This alone is enough to appreciate God’s Art.

A true Muslim can never be hostile to the People of the Book.

According to the Qur'an, Torah and Gospel, the time we live in right now is the End Times.
