Mahdi, Jesus And The End Times
The Times of Israel
Quote
The great majority of Muslims are hostile to one another. Muslims cannot be united without Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). The way of the dajjal is showing its bloody talons, but the solution is the way of the Mahdi (pbuh). We have the way of the dajjal every day, and we will have the way of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) every day.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
The way of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will last for 40 years. The dajjal will survive for 40 years. FORTY IS A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER. Forty is the age of maturity. The prophethood came to the prophets in their 40s.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
Our Prophet (saas) described nothing so clearly as he did the way of Hazrat Mahdi (as). THOSE WHO WANT PEOPLE TO FORGET THE WAY OF HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) ARE WASTING THEIR TIME.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
THEY TAKE PEOPLE WHO ARE WELL SUITED INTO THE DARKNESS OF THE WAY OF THE DAJJAL. THE DAJJAL CONSTANTLY MAKES COPIES OF HIMSELF. You see in the newspapers the people who line young girls up and shoot them, who behave so barbarously. They shed blood and persecute people; they are the copies of the dajjal.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) is like the sun, constantly reflecting the , whether he will admit the sun or not.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
Pay attention to newspapers and the television. You will see what a fierce struggle there is between the way of Hazrat Mahdi (as) and the system of the sufyan.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
There is a terrible slaughter going on in Syria. There are many hadiths about the way of the dajjal going insane in Damascus in the time of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). WE MUST OPPOSE THIS HORROR ALONGSIDE THE WAY OF THE MAHDI.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
OUR PROPHET (SAAS) REFERS TO THE SUFYAN AS “AN INDIVIDUAL WHO WILL EMERGE FROM DAMASCUS.” A BAATHIST, COMMUNIST MINDSET; A DARWINIST, MATERIALIST MINDSET; IN OTHER WORDS THE SPIRIT, PHILOSOPHY, BELIEF LED BY HAFIZ ASSAD. That belief devastated the whole Islamic world. That is why around 90% of the armies of the Islamic world have fallen into the hands of the way of the sufyan. That is how they ruin Muslims.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
How can corruption be ended? Does the Qur’an say corruption can end without the global dominion of the Qur’an? What does that mean? “STRIVE UNTIL THE MORAL VALUES OF THE QUR’AN RULE THE WORLD, UNTIL THE RELIGION IS ALLAH’S, IN OTHER WORDS.” Whom is Allah addressing? All Muslims. Now, what will Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) do? He will obey that verse. THE NAME OF THE PERSON WHO OBEYS THAT VERSE IS HAZRAT MAHDI (PBUH). ALLAH WILL BESTOW THAT SOLELY ON HIM AND THE PROPHET JESUS (PBUH) IN THIS WORLD. THAT IS THE ISSUE.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
The solution to the way of the dajjal is the system of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh).
Adnan Oktar
Quote
UNHAPPINESS STEMS FROM ASSAULTS BY THE WAY OF THE DAJJAL AND THE SUFYAN. The way of the sufyan has devastated the Islamic world. Some people are sitting back and watching. My brother, there is a vampire on you sucking your blood; throw it off. But they don’t. They wander round with it, unhappy, their eyes cast down.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
ALLAH HAS CREATED US IN A TIME OF MARVELS. The holy relics will be discovered in the time to come. The originals of the Gospel and the Torah will be found. THE FACT WE WILL SEE THE PROPHET JESUS (PBUH) IS BREATHTAKING.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
States of emergency or other measures can be taken in an attack by humans. BUT AT THE MOMENT THE SATAN IS ATTACKING THE WORLD. That is a thousand times worse and more perilous than any human assault. It devastates people. THE SOLUTION IS TO DEMAND THE SYSTEM OF HAZRAT MAHDI (PBUH).
Adnan Oktar
Quote
WHEN THE PROPHET JESUS (PBUH) APPEARS, PEOPLE WILL SEE A PROPHET FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS CENTURY. The Prophet Jesus’ (pbuh) face is most noble and attractive. Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will wage a great struggle and the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will deal the final blow.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
THE REASON WHY ISLAMIC UNION HAS NOT COME ABOUT IS THAT PEOPLE INSISTENTLY REFUSE TO PRAY. The System of Hazrat Mahdi (as) will spread through prayer, silently and deeply.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
They want us to cover up the way of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) and only talk about myths. Some people would prefer it to be a minor phenomenon but in line with their way of thinking. IF THEY DO THAT, THEY WILL ABRUPTLY BE CAUGHT IN THE DAY OF RECKONING.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
Since Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will appear in Istanbul, Allah bestowed the capture of Istanbul. All the mosques of Istanbul were prepared for Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). ISTANBUL IS THE LOVELIEST CITY IN THE WORLD, AND IS BEING PREPARED FOR HAZRAT MAHDI (PBUH).
Adnan Oktar
Quote
THEY WERE PREPARING ARMAGEDDON. THEY WERE PLANNING TO SLAUGHTER MUSLIMS EN MASSE ACROSS A WIDE AREA and were going to do it by citing people like that. BUT WE HAVE DONE AWAY WITH THAT KIND OF PEOPLE; WITH OUR IDEAS, BEHAVIOR, CHARACTER AND LIFE. INSTEAD, WE HAVE REVEALED THE MODEL OF THE COMPANIONS OF THE TIME OF RASULULLAH (PROPHET MUHAMMAD (SAAS) ), THE GENUINE MUSLIM MODEL, AND THUS THWARTED THAT PLAN. But these schemes are still going on, of course, and they are still striving. And we are continuing to thwart them, and will continue to do so.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
WHEN THE PROPHET JESUS (PBUH) COMES, CHRISTIANS WILL BECOME MUSLIMS. When they see the true Prophet Jesus (pbuh) they will be devoted to the true Jesus. The Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will not compel anyone to become Muslim. Allah's commandment is explicit; THERE IS NO COMPULSION IN THE RELIGION.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
THE DAJJAL (ANTICHRIST) HAS AGAIN SPARKED OFF THE ECONOMIC CRISIS. They looked and saw the pace of Turkish regeneration, that the abundance of the way of Hazrat Mahdi (as) is everywhere and that growth had reached the highest level in the world. The dajjal (antichrist) boomed from the north, “Stir things up.” They immediately sent the dollar up in value. The value of the euro rose suddenly. And they said an economic crisis was coming. I mean, they incited it. After which, the terror movement.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
IT IS ALLAH WHO CREATES THE SNARES SET BY THE UNBELIEVERS. Unbelievers can only do harm when Allah wishes. They can in no way hurt the community of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh).
Adnan Oktar
Quote
There will also be women in the community of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh).
Adnan Oktar
Quote
They will feel no grief when there are martyrs in the community of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh).
Adnan Oktar
Quote
Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will strive against millions with just a handful of people at his side. The followers of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will speak of Allah all night.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
Two worldviews are in a constant state of struggle in the , monitor the press, watch the television, EVERY DAY THERE IS A TOOTH AND CLAW STRUGGLE BETWEEN THE WAY OF THE DAJJAL(ANTICHRIST) AND THE WAY OF HAZRAT MAHDI (PBUH). THE WAY OF THE DAJJAL (ANTICHRIST), on the rise for the last 150 years, IS NOW IN ITS MOST FEROCIOUS PERIOD. And in this most ferocious period it is heading for defeat.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
THE COMMUNIST UPRISING IN THE SOUTHEAST IS THE UPRISING OF THE WAY OF THE DAJJAL (ANTICHRIST). ITS MEMBERS HAVE JOINED THE DAJJAL (ANTICHRIST). AND THE TURKISH TROOPS FIGHTING AGAINST IT REPRESENT THE ARM OF HAZRAT MAHDI (PBUH), THE WAY OF THE MAHDI. Because they are doing so in the name of Allah, of the motherland, the nation and the flag. The others, however, are acting in the name of materialism and Darwinism.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
WORKING VERY HARD IS NOT A SIGN OF QUALITY. SPARING TIME FOR CULTURE, SPARING TIME FOR ART AND SCIENCES IS A SIGN FOR QUALITY. Working hard is a sign of , we will have robots and devices work, not the people. People will only be using their minds. MAN IS CHARGED WITH LOVE, ART AND SCIENCE. THEY ARE CHARGED FAITH, COMPASSION AND GOOD MORALITY. They are not pieces of machines… WORKING LESS BUT LIVING A HIGH-QUALITY LIFE, THAT IS IT, THAT IS THE IDEAL.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
THE FOLLOWERS OF HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) ARE SUPERIOR TO BOTH THOSE WHO GO BEFORE AND THOSE WHO COME AFTER. The followers of Hazrat Mahdi (as) have no day and night.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
“Why such haste to talk about the system of Mahdi, is not having faith enough?” they ask. ALLAH’S COMMAND “NOT TO BE DIVIDED AND DISPERSED” IS ISLAMIC UNION. We call the person at its head Hazrat Mahdi (as). Muslims cannot be leaderless. People pray in one place while women are raped in another and the ears are cut off the bodies of dead Muslims. One cannot say, “I pray, so there is no need for the system of Hazrat Mahdi.”
Adnan Oktar
Quote
2.5 MILLION PEOPLE ARE BELOW THE HUNGER LINE IN AFGHANISTAN. THAT IS THE SYSTEM OF DAJJAL (ANTI-CHRIST). If the way of the dajjal is killing and burning, then the system of Hazrat Mahdi (as) has to be there to oppose it. The system of dajjal has itself talked about day and night. So why do you not want to hear about the system of the Mahdi?
Adnan Oktar
Quote
If someone does not await the Prophet Jesus (as), if he denies the three verses about his coming, then he has departed the faith. If he does not want the whole world to convert to Islam, then he has departed the faith. People say, “I recite the names of Allah all night,” but people are also being martyred in Afghanistan all night. ONE TRILLION RECITATIONS ARE NOT WORTH ONE RELIGIOUS OBLIGATION. ISLAMIC UNION IS ONE SUCH OBLIGATION. The dajjal shouts and makes itself heard. So the system of Mahdi will reveal itself in all its glory in reaction to this.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
“He who believes and worships and wages jihad will in any case go to Paradise,” he says. But JIHAD MEANS STRIVING DAY AND NIGHT FOR ISLAMIC UNION. HOW CAN YOU WISH TO ENTER PARADISE IF YOU DO NOT DO THAT? You have done what is unlawful. You have failed to abide by what is lawful and unlawful. Jihad in the End Times corresponds to the system of the Messiah and the system of Mahdi. There is no headless system, no system without a leader.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
Our Prophet (saas) foretells the events of the End Times and says we must hear “the good news of Hazrat Mahdi (as).” Go to Hazrat Mahdi (as) even if you have to crawl,” he says. You say, “I heeded the Prophet (saas)” but in the Hereafter you will say, “I did not heed a word the Prophet (saas) said.” There is no such religion. IN OUR RELIGION, MUSLIMS MUST ACT TOGETHER AND SECURE ISLAMIC UNION. ISLAMIC UNION IS THE GREATEST RELIGIOUS OBLIGATION.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
Allah does not accept sects. But they have to exist for now. But we must eliminate them by striving for the system of Hazrat Mahdi (as). IF SOMEONE DOES NOT ESPOUSE THE ISLAM OF THE AGE OF FELICITY, HE WILL HAVE TO ACCOUNT FOR HIMSELF IN THE HEREAFTER.”
Adnan Oktar
Quote
There will also be women among the followers of Hazrat Mahdi (as).
Adnan Oktar
Quote
Hazrat Mahdi (as) is in everyone’s subconscious. We know this from time when people gave their promises to Allah.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
All the physical signs are not enough to make on the Mahdi. HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) IS THE PERSON BEHIND WHOM THE PROPHET JESUS (AS) WILL PRAY.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
Bediüzzaman points to Hazrat Mahdi (as) on the basis of the hadiths. He says that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will withdraw from all aspects of life. "BIGOTS WILL MAKE FIERCE ATTACKS IN THE END TIMES” HE SAYS. “YOU WILL SUCCEED THROUGH TENACITY, LOYALTY AND FAITH” HE SAYS.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
THE FOLLOWERS OF HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WILL BE LOYAL AND TRUSTWORTHY. Our Prophet (saas) greatly praised the followers of Hazrat Mahdi (as).
Adnan Oktar
Quote
HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) AND HIS FOLLOWERS MUST BE TOGETHER. HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) IS THE MAHDI TOGETHER WITH HIS COMMUNITY. Our Prophet (saas) never praised anyone else like he did the followers of Hazrat Mahdi (as).
Adnan Oktar
Quote
Hazrat Mahdi (as) is the essence of all the prophets.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
PEOPLE WILL FEEL VERY AT EASE ALONGSIDE THE FOLLOWERS OF HAZRAT MAHDI (AS). His followers will be very high quality and well educated. The followers of Hazrat Mahdi (as) will have true faith.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
THEY MUST TRUST IN THE POWER OF ALLAH. THERE WILL BE NO BLOODSHED IN THE TIME OF HAZRAT MAHDI (AS). Why do they feel the need for bloodshed? Allah does not want it.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
The system of Mahdi (as) is currently smothering the way of the dajjal and of satan. These bellows originate from this. BUT HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WILL NEVER PAUSE OR STOP. SATAN WILL BE LAID OUT AS A CORPSE AT HAZRAT MAHDI’S (AS) FEET. That is destiny, what Allah has written.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
The light of faith will be seen in people’s faces everywhere under the system of the Hazrat Mahdi (as). The system of Hazrat Mahdi (as) seeks joy, reason, science and the truth. THERE HAS NEVER BEEN SUCH A GLORIOUS DOMINION. The system of Hazrat Mahdi (as) will never stop if the whole world is united. The system of Hazrat Mahdi (as) will bring joy, brotherhood and peace to the world. Nothing will be able to hinder the system of Hazrat Mahdi (as) or people’s happiness.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
The world will enter into a new age of civilization. This will be in science, in arts, in aesthetics; it will be valid in every aspect, insha'Allah. Serenity, safety, peace, goodness and beauties will enwrap the whole world. The world had seen the atrociousness of the dajjal (anti-messiah), the filth of the dajjal in all clarity. Now they will come to see the light, cleanliness and warmth of the system of the Mahdi.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
THE SYSTEM OF THE DAJJAL BRINGS WITH IT SORROW, CARE AND PAIN. BUT THE SYSTEM OF THE MAHDI BRINGS JOY, OPENNESS AND EASE. Allah says that if people do not remember Him, He will send “trouble and care.” ALLAH THUS TELLS US THE REASON FOR THE ECONOMIC CRISIS.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
During the corruption that follows the death of the Prophet Jesus (as), people WILL ASK WHAT THE SALAT (REGULAR PRAYER) IS, BUT NOBODY WILL KNOW. NOBODY WILL BE LEFT TO SAY ‘LA ILAHE ILLALLAH.’ The few aged believers left WILL ONLY BE ABLE TO RECITE THE TAKBIR IN WHISPERS. Then Allah will take their souls, too. THE DAY OF JUDGMENT WILL NOT COME IF EVEN A SINGLE BELIEVER IS LEFT ON EARTH.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
THE DAY OF JUDGMENT WILL COME AT THE TIME OF THE EVENING PRAYER. That time is given for a specific place. Since the last caliphate is in Istanbul, it means the Day of Judgment will break at the time of the evening call to prayer in Istanbul. But the call will not be made then, THE CALL TO PRAYER WILL NO LONGER BE HEARD AT THAT TIME. But the Day of Judgment will come at the time of the evening call to prayer. The Bosphorus looks very lovely now. But on the Day of Judgment, THE TWO SHORES WILL COME TOGETHER AND THEN SPLIT APART AGAIN AND THEN JOIN AGAIN. Allah says you will see the sea burning on that day. WHO WOULD EXPECT MAGMA TO FLOW FROM THE BOSPHORUS ON THAT DAY? Who could imagine the seven hills being flattened, magma and water coming together and the sky becoming bright red? The Day of Judgment will burst over them as they sip their drinks and enjoy illicit liaisons and say “when will the Day of Judgment came?”
Adnan Oktar
Quote
RELIGION WILL BE LIGHTENED IN THE TIME OF HAZRAT MAHDI (AS). Hazrat Mahdi (as) will remove people’s heavy fetters and restore the religion to its essence. He will remove the rust that has settled on the faith.
Adnan Oktar
