It’s great that our youngsters are very kind and caring. Their love and protectiveness towards disabled people is commendable.

Some people are prejudiced against religion because they’ve seen the horrors of the bigoted mindset. However, true religion is the opposite of that.

This is the time of the Mahdi. It is clear that God’s name ‘Al-Hadi’ (The One, Who continually shows the right way) is surrounding the youth.

Sport strengthens the body. Professionals should encourage and help young people into sports.

Turkish young people today are level-headed, pious but against bigotry. This is very good.

Our traditional orthodox brothers/sisters are almost suffocating themselves with fabricated rules. They made themselves an easy target for the disbelief system.

Young people should be educated based on their talents.

A lack of love forces young people to put up an act and keeps them from being themselves and being sincere. In sincere love, there can be no acting or pretending.

President Trump’s meeting with traditional opinion leaders will not make a big difference. He should directly follow the spirit of the Qur’an, the Mahdi movement.

Because the traditional orthodox understanding of Islam has shown prayer (salat) as if it is too complicated to perform, many stay away from prayer.

I never adopt a destructive tone towards anyone. Although I don't agree with them on many things, I still respect people with traditional orthodox beliefs and I won’t stay silent if they are mistreated.

Some people confuse the dark world of radicalism with true religion and try to defend it. It is not what God wants. True Islam is the opposite of radicalism.

It's so fine that there are devout Orthodox, Jews and Muslims in Russia. It would be so fine to see synagogues and churches to be full of devout people.

The social justice promised in socialism is based on administrative pressure and the threat of force. Social justice in Islam is practiced from the heart with love.

Where are you going to have a socialist revolution? There will be the revolution of the Unity of Islam, of the Turkish-Islamic Union. What Ataturk said will come true. One of the principles of Ataturk is revolutionism. What Ataturk meant by revolution is the revolution of the Turkish Islamic Union, the revolution of the Unity of Islam. And that is still going on at this moment with democracy, with love, with knowledge, with reason, with kindness and aesthetics.

Socialists and Marxists have taken the concept of social justice from the Torah, from the system of the Messiah, from the Messianic belief, under the influence of the glorious explanations of social justice in the time of the Messiah and under the influence of the beauty of economical justice that will be implemented in the time of the Mahdi.

We criticize the godless, bookless, irreligious, faithless aspect of socialism, of communism. Or else we do not criticize the social justice aspect. That is because social justice is what the system of the Mahdi would be establishing anyway.

While society gives men a blank check, they treat ladies as potential sinners. This is outrageous.

The most important marker of a high-quality civilization is the extent that women enjoy freedom. A society where ladies are considered temptresses, where they are not allowed to look beautiful, cannot be a civilized society.

It’s a pity that ladies are not free and do not feel safe and happy. Many of them feel like they have to be ready to fight any moment.

Marxism, Leninism and Darwinist/materialist ideologies can be eradicated only through science. Ending these philosophies by means of science is akin to destroying the basis of terrorism.

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.

All religions and many languages must be taught at schools. If a person doesn't know the religion of their society, it's a loss for that person.

It was a lady who first heard the Qur’an from the Prophet (saas). Also, the first martyr was a lady. Ladies are highly esteemed and valued in Islam as described in the Qur’an.

One of the reasons I use beautiful pictures in my books is to remind people of, and to make people see, God’s beautiful artistry.
