Thousands of books about the sufficiency of the Qur'an and the fact that there exists no violence in Islam must be handed out by means of planes which are now used to drop bombs.

Muslims are free when they fully abide by the Qur'an. Islam abolishes the thousands of prohibitions imposed by systems other than the Islam.

We should work on Turkey to be a modern, enlightened and high-quality country. Otherwise, a bigoted and traditional orthodox image would cause suffering. Turkey has to be high quality and full of love.

It is important to embrace people with love to prevent any conflict. But this should be accomplished on the basis of modernity, not of bigotry.

The absolute solution would be to build a modern, enlightened, high-quality Turkey that is in defiance of bigotry and lives by morals of Qur'an.

Some Muslims are oppressed due to disbelief, while others are so due to radicalism. The Mahdi will right these two wrongs.

Bigots had caused a steel barrier to be built between Islam and the people. We crushed this set in the ideological sense. We eliminated the gloom of the traditionalist conception of Islam. Now modern, intellectual people have comprehended the real nature of Islam and they have widely embraced it. Our works have pulverized the steel wall between people and Islam.

One of the reasons that laid the foundations for Iraq, Syria, Libya's breaking into pieces is the traditionalist orthodox understanding.

The right path is the sincere, enlightened, warm understanding of the Qur'an that beauties life. The Qur'an has no place in the traditionalist understanding of Islam. This is what brings about separation.

They are trying to drag us into the traditionalist understanding of Islam. We abide by the Qur'an. We are the enlightened face of Muslims. We are a reasonable, compassionate community that lawfully uses all blessings bestowed on us by God.

They aim to suffocate Turkey within the traditionalist orthodox system as in Syria, Iraq and Egypt. Prevalence of love, arts and high-quality will ruin this game.

According to the Qur'an, people are deemed free to choose if they will perform their prayers or not. Muslims are only responsible for explaining what God commands and nothing more.

The traditionalistic conception of Islam doesn’t consider woman as human beings. First this notion must be removed from Islamic references.

No one should give credit to these bigoted provocations that arise one after the other, just like it was before the February 28th Coup of 1997. Turkey will remain enlightened and modern.

Come circles introduce bigotry specifically to prevent the strengthening of Islam. We are giving the scientific response to every provocation created by bigotry.

Attempting to change the government through a coup and preparing lists for conducting massacres would not be acceptable anywhere. There is no compulsion in Islam.

They imagine that Islam will cease to exist when there is secularism. Secularism means irreligious and religious people living together in comfort. Islam guarantees the coexistence of both irreligious and religious people.

What befalls on Muslims is to preach Islam. According to Islam, exerting pressure and compulsion is unlawful.

According to the Qur'an, everyone can practice his own religion as he pleases. The verse says “You have your religion and I have mine”. Consequently, a Muslim should never exert pressure on anyone.

"There is no compulsion where religion is concerned." This is a command of God. This is also a summary of secularism.

Everyone can be religious or non-religious, however they wish. No one has the right to interfere and force another.

I would never intervene in anyone's way of living. They may all live as they like as I have respect for all points of view.

I would never intervene in anyone's way of clothing and I would never ostracize a person due to his or her dress. I have respect and love for all.

There is no pressure and compelling in religion. Muslims are obliged to say to unbelievers “Your religion is yours and my religion is mine”, they can’t pressure people.

There are many fabricated hadiths that humiliate women and endorse violence. Such hadiths should openly be declared null and void.
