30% of the food manufactured in the world is wasted before consumption. That is a grave unscrupulousness.

The End Times is such a fierce time that unlawful acts are carried out invoking the Name of God, as if they are the commands of God.

Hypocrites are very extravagant and they try to harm Muslims with their squandering. They want to spend the wealth of Muslims.

Homosexuality is an illegal act according to the Qur’an, the Torah and the Gospels. Muslims are obliged to speak of the foulness of acts that are illegal according to the Qur’an.

A Muslim can never encourage or set the stage for something that is forbidden in the Qur'an.

Four different schools of Islam make contradictory statements re lawful and unlawful. One religious scholar opposes the other. Islam is one and exists in the Qur'an.

Alcoholic beverages have nothing good about them. Before all else it’s forbidden according to religion. It’s very harmful, it harms the liver and the brain.

We are a modern, secular, enlightened, democratic community that takes everything beautiful as a basis, that demands what is elegant and high-quality, that are keen on what is lawful and what is not.

Since we abide by the Qur'an and are scrupulous about what is lawful and what is not, we are the enlightened bright face of Islam.

Rendering judgment in the name of God and inventing new lawful and unlawful acts in the name of God means ascribing partners to God and that is why bigots are also idolaters.

Muslims give advice to others regarding what is unlawful by religion, but do not interfere in anyone’s way of living.

According to those who don't abide by the Qur'an, it's illegæal to "take photos, dance, read poetry or cut one's beard." These are not in the Qur'an.

In Orthodox understanding of Islam, life means misery. They deemed everything illegal; music and television are illegal according to their understanding.

Prodigality is very common. People take food to their dish and they cannot finish and they leave it. This is wastefulness. Muslims must avoid prodigality in everything. Muslims must not waste any food, paper or water.

If women are denied their freedom, if fake bans are introduced in name of religion, the Islamic Union cannot be built. God will never give success to a misogynistic system. The key to Islamic Union is women. If you promise to build a society where women will be free, God will build the Islamic Union.

Some people display a greedy attitude when shown kindness. This attitude is both rude and wasteful. Wasting is unlawful.

A single ear of wheat takes great pains to mature. It collects water, vitamins & minerals from soil. Not even a single bit of it should be wasted. If the waste in the world was stopped today, there would be no such thing as hunger.

It’s crucial that necessary precautions are taken against so that no fruits and vegetables are wasted during transport. We should make sure that nothing is wasted.

It’s important to take necessary steps to end waste in hotels, restaurants, etc. If there was no waste in the world, there would be no hunger as well.

As a way to stop waste, local authorities can every day collect leftovers from restaurants.

While people are dying of hunger and poverty, investing in weapons is profligacy. This foolishness will completely end in the time of Mahdi.

If only wastage in the world could be prevented, it would be enough for all of the countries in poverty; that is for one. Once Mahdi (pbuh) appears, there will be no wastage. Secondly; even if one tenth of the money spent of weaponry were to be spent on those dear ones, they would be able to eat the most beautiful food eaten in the most luxurious restaurants of Paris. Even one tenth of the money spent on weapons would ensure everyone in need all over the world eating the most beautiful food in the best diners.

God wants goods to be constantly used in His path, not be accumulated and hoarded. That causes scarcity and economic crisis.

Since hypocrisy is not detected easily, it is the gravest trouble the Muslim world is facing. That is why we are constantly stressing this matter.

Many people have an ambition to hoard materials because of their fear of future. This is an attitude God doesn’t like and that doesn’t befit a believer’s trust in God.
