The Greater Middle East Initiative is a project sketched to destroy the system of the Mahdi. What does the system of the Mahdi demand? It demands the Islamic world to be in unity. What does the Greater Middle East initiative demand? It demands that Islamic world be torn to pieces. Ever since the beginning, their goal is to tear Turkey into pieces, tear Iraq and Syria into pieces.

Their claims about Mahdi (pbuh) not being mentioned in the Qur'an are not true. Surat al-Kahf and Surah Yusuh entirely refer to the system of the Mahdi. The story of the Prophet Solomon (pbuh) refers to the system of the Mahdi. The 55th verse of Surat An-Nur refers to the global dominion and the system of the Mahdi.

The goal of the US's Great Middle East Project is to stop the system of the Mahdi; that is because the system of the Mahdi is a system that would unite all the Islamic world. The Great Middle East Project, on the other hand, is a system that would break the Islamic world to pieces.

God keeps the world on hold by means of the system of the Mahdi right now. That is to say Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) is the reason for the delay of the coming of the Last Day.

Adhesions to the system of the Mahdi in a calm, covert environment are much more eligible. For instance, there had been groups adhering to our Prophet (saas) but the good deeds they will attain for doing so is much less. The first ones to pledge allegiance are very eligible. The first 313 people, like the number of the companions who fought in the Battle of Badr, they are very important.

The system of the Mahdi acts secretly and covertly. That is to rule out weak people with hypocritical character, people devoted to this world. The people devoted to this world, people full of jealousy and envy, people in love with this world are unable to use their willpower and mind in such a calm environment. They are consumed with a stoicism and lethargy, so they lay themselves aside. But in a very fast-moving, fast-paced environment, a great number of adhesions take place with that sudden excitement. But let me say this, such adhesions are not that much eligible.

The 55th verse of Surat An-Nur refers to the global sovereignty of the moral values of the Qur'an. The whole of Surat Al-Kahf depicts the system of the Mahdi. Surah Yusuf and the story of the Prophet Solomon (pbuh) is almost a summary of the system of the Mahdi.

The Prophet Joseph (pbuh) is an honest person through and through. He did not act with his instincts but with his good conscience. Where did his good conscience take him? To prison. He placed his trust in God and what happened eventually? Almighty God made him the Sultan of Egypt. He ate the most beautiful food, wore the most beautiful clothes and is given the most beautiful ranks in Heaven.

Surat Al-Kahf entirely refers to the system of the Mahdi. The 55th verse of Surat An-Nur refers to the global dominion of the moral values of the Qur’an. There are many verses. Surah Joseph, the Story of Solomon they all refer to the system of the Mahdi with symbols.

God describes the system of the Mahdi in a veiled manner in the Qur’an. He describes it in Surat al-Kahf, in the story of Solomon and in Surah Yusuf, but in veiled language.

Just as Prophet Joseph's (pbuh) brothers didn't recognise him until the right time came, people will not recognise the Mahdi until it's time.

The water cup symbol is found in inscriptions that are tens of thousands of years old, in the Bible, in Freemasonry and in Surah Yusuf in the Qur’an.

The Qur’an does not explain incidents just as a story –may Allah forbid. The stories in the Qur’an bear references to the incidents that will take place in the future.

In the Qur'an, in the many of the stories are told, there are signs referring to Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh).

We have entered the Age of Aquarius, may Allah bless it. The Age of Aquarius is the age of the System of the Mahdi. The age of Aquarius is closely connected with the system of the Mahdi.

The Prophet Solomon (pbuh) is the forefather of the Mahdi (pbuh). Hazrat Mahdi will be very much like the Prophet Solomon (pbuh). Mahdi (pbuh) will also love arts, beauty and glory a lot. He will adorn the world. Our Prophet (saas) says that he will prosper the whole world, for Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh).

God is the One Who knows everything and He is the One Who establishes the commands. And God is Wise, there is wisdom in everything He does. Someone might say, "Something went terribly wrong." But that is not true, everything happens for a reason. Your mind might not conceive it yet and you might learn the wisdom behind it, either in this world or in the Hereafter, but there is certainly wisdom behind everything that happens.

If one displays egocentricity, people become really vicious against him. That is why modesty is like an armor. Egocentricity on the other hand is a disease that increases aggression and attracts troubles.

One should focus on Heaven and grasp it well. One should strengthen his faith. A Muslim should have that knowledge fully settled in his mind. It should not remain as blurred information. A Muslim should know everything told about Heaven in the Qur'an, he should know all of the verses.

Muslims do not have the unity the PKK has among them. They do not even have one tenth of their solidarity. For instance, they live inside a cave on a three thousand meter high mountain. If you ask a Muslim to go live in a cave, very few Muslims would ever accept it. If you ask them to put their lives on the line, they would probably say ,"I have a family, I have my wife, I am supposed to advance in life, I will have my child " and would never put their lives on the line. But see that the PKK militants do put their lives on the line. That is why God gives them success, even if they are in disbelief, simply because they are determined.

God gives time to unbelievers and then knocks them down because they go astray. The lifespan of unbelief is about 40 years and the PKK is about to fulfill this 40 years.

Muslims always face beautiful things after their deaths. There would be no difficulties, no pain, no fear for them; they won't face such feelings in any stage. Everything goes smoothly for them. They will never face any kind of distress while their souls are taken, while they arise from death, while they enter Heaven.

The Prophet Solomon (pbuh) is the sultan of arts and aesthetics. He is the one who taught arts and aesthetics to the world. Christianity learned the arts from him. They have learned how palaces should be adorned, how the masjids should be adorned, how the buildings should be adorned, all from him. The palaces in Europe, the palaces of the Ottomans have all been built by emulating the palace of the Prophet Solomon (pbuh). The Prophet Solomon is the father of all palaces, he is the father of arts, aesthetics and beauty.

Idolaters sometimes present themselves as if they are about to do something good but they are treacherous. You should not believe the face an idolater displays. The good behavior he displays in front of you, or the speeches he gives and his words, are not valid. Their insidious and covert maniacal world is the truth. The Qur'an draws attention to this fact.

Crying is the general characteristic of idolaters. They misrepresent themselves as crying, blubbering people as if they are sentimental, compassionate and easily flappable. And thus their paths are opened for them. Actually, one only cries out of fear of God, out of love for God; but these ones cry as a ploy, to put on a show with their idolater spirit.
