In the Qur'an, God refers to Jews and Christians as the People of the Book and states that it is unlawful to kill them.

Greeks, Armenians, Jews; they are all Turkey's delight. Protecting and watching over them is good morality.

Both Muslims and Jews are the children of the Prophet Abraham. Turning a blind eye to these fights between brothers is not acceptable.

Jews have been loyal to the Prophet Moses for 3,500 years. Although they have suffered every kind of ordeals they have never forsaken their cause. That is enough to love them.

Religious Jews are praying to God every morning and every night saying "O Lord, send us the Mahdi/Moshiach." And God deems them successful and protects them.

I love Armenians, I love Jews, Catholics, Orthodox, all Christians. I love everyone whom God has created.

The Ottoman Empire has always been very protective towards the Jews. During the WWII, the Turkish Ambassadars in Europe made great sacrifices to protect Jews.

God encourages Muslims to have close, friendly relations with Christians and Jews.

Christians are very loving people. They need to ally with Muslims and Jews. We should eradicate the lovelessness that pollutes the world.

Muslims and Jews should be in a strong friendship and fraternity. Together they need to destroy satan's plots and make an alliance based on their common values.

The alliance of religious Jews, Christians and Muslims is crucial, just as their love and respect for each other is.

Christians and Jews are more than welcome to Muslims’ iftar dinners. God says Muslims can dine with Christians and Jews.

God tells us in the Qur'an that we can dine together with Christians and Jews and eat their food. And the food of Christians and Jews is also lawful for you and your food is lawful for them. (The Holy Qur’an, 5:5)

Moshiach of the Jews and the Mahdi of Muslims is the same person. They have all traits in common.

Jews say that Moshiach (Mahdi) will come from somewhere outside of Jerusalem, that they will wait by the gates of Rum, that is to say, that he will be in Istanbul.

All societies including Freemasons, Knights Templar, and all believers, including Christians, Jews and Muslims are awaiting the Mahdi.

Approaching Christians and Jews with compassion is a path God shows us in the Qur’an.

The reason why the Jews have been putting ointment in their hair for thousands of years is to remember the Mahdi (King Moshiach).

Jews are the People of the Book, and they have faith in One God. Muslims should approach pious Jews and Christians with compassion.

The world is preparing for the system of the Mahdi (pbuh) for the last five thousand years. The Templar Knights, Freemasons, and Jews all await the Mahdi (pbuh).

Protecting churches and synagogues is a provision stated in the Qur'an. Being anti-Jew or anti-Christian is not compatible with the Qur'an. We need to approach everyone with love and compassion. No one can know who deserves to enter paradise in the Sight of God.

Some foreign papers claim that I’m an anti-Semite. It’s against the Qur’an to be an anti-Semite. I’m the one who defends religious Jews. During those days when anti-Israeli sentiment was the highest in Turkey, I was the only one who said that the two countries should be friends. I always say Muslims should approach Christians and Jews with compassion. This open display of friendliness is unparalleled among Muslims.

The existence of the Greek, the Armenians and the Jews in our country are a beauty. They are the ornaments of our country and we consider all of them as brothers and sisters. It is virtually impossible to run into a Jew in any other Islamic country, whereas they should be and live comfortably all around the world.

The irreligious do not promote freedom. Islam promotes freedom. People had no liberties in the era of the Pharaoh and Nimrod, but they were fully at liberty in the time of the Messenger of God (pbuh). Both Jews and Christians were at liberty. Furthermore, they were treated with love, compassion and utmost care. They were under protection in every respect. However, the Pharaoh tyrannized over his people.

According to Jewish sources, in the time of the Mahdi (pbuh), superstitions in Judaism will be eliminated.
