Adnan Oktar - Harun Yahya

I want to be the Mahdi’s student. May God honor me and my friends by making us the Mahdi’s students. Adnan Oktar

I want the world to be full of love like Heaven. My purpose is always earning the good will of God, His Mercy and Heaven. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I want the whole world to love one another. The Chinese, Americans, Russians, Pakistanis, everyone is very sweet. Let everyone love one another. Let the youth be merry. Let us all sing songs and dance. Let us plant flowers in front of everyone’s home. Let us remember God altogether. Friendship and companionship are very pleasant and beautiful. It is unbelievable that there are fights, conflicts and disagreements instead of what is beautiful and pleasant. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I want the fighting among people to end. I want them to love one another and live as friends and brothers. I want art and beauty to surround us. I want everywhere to be like Heaven. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I think that the prophet Jesus Messiah (pbuh) will have a very small community. Possibly it will be consisting of soldiers, masons and some elite. His students might be consisting of about two or three hundred Adnan Oktar

Quote

I think internet is a priority. That is because internet is the source of knowledge and learning. Dabbat Al-Ardh is the greatest helper of Mahdi (pbuh). Dabbat Al-Ardh has specifically been created by Allah in the End Times for the Mahdi. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I started preaching religion in 1979 when I was at University of Mimar Sinan. It was the fortress of Marxism at the time. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I spend what I earn in the way of God; I never accumulate my earnings. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I SPEAK OF ALL THINGS, PROVING THEM WITH VERSES AND HADITHS. We treat the People of the Book as commanded in the verses. Allah says we must invite the People of the Book to say ‘La'ilaha'il'Allah’ (Allah: The One and Only God) in a kindly manner. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed satan "So have piety of Allah and obey me." FEARING ALLAH IS NOT LIKE FEARING GUNS OR ANYTHING ELSE. FEAR OF ALLAH IS A DELIGHTFUL, LOVELY AND NOBLE FEAR. It means to fear losing Allah’s love and approval. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I see that young people are suffering intensely because of not being loved and not being able to find someone to love. This spiritual disaster will end with the system of the Mahdi. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I see everything inside my brain. Who creates these images inside my brain? God does. For whom would be my love then? For God. I cannot love any independent being. I would be lying, I would be fooling myself. That is because all I see is what God creates for me. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I see a different kind of moral superiority in my Kurdish brothers. They have a unique beauty. This moral virtue that prevails in Anatolia manifests very beautifully on them. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I said that the year 2016 would be the year of the intellectual struggle against hypocrites. Turkey has grasped the importance of this struggle. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I risked the wrath of millions of people by pointing to the Qur’an as the sole guide. However, as long as I know something is true, I will never stop telling it. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I respect the ideas of my atheist brothers and sisters. I approach them all with compassion. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I place some issues at the forefront, such as reasoning in faith, love of Allah, fear of Allah, and sufficiency of the Qur'an. Satan is angered by this and provokes people by whispering, “do not give priority to reasoning in faith, only tell superstitions”. I AM THE ANTI-SUPERSTITION. I WILL DESTROY SUPERSTITIONS. I am an “Era of Bliss” type Muslim. I want the religion to be practiced just as our Prophet (saas) wanted it to be practiced. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I personally sent copies of the Qur'an to the major Masonic Lodges in the US. And again for the very first time, we gave lectures on facts leading to faith and the miracles of the Qur'an in the greatest Lodge of the US. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I only tell people what I learn from the Qur’an. Many people are surprised because they do not know the Qur’an and they see the freedoms given in the Qur’an for the first time. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I only live for God. I don’t expect anything from this world. I only want the love and good pleasure of God. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I only fear God. So I easily say everything that I know to be true. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I only fear God. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I only abide by the Qur’an. It is freedom that I like. Both women and men should enjoy freedom. Pressure would disrupt one’s ability to think, ability to compilation, ability to create. It would depress people, get them down and disrupt their ability to speak. The Qur’an is a blessing of freedom presented to the Qur’an by God, it is the book of freedom. There is no system, no faith, no understanding of morality that brings as much freedom to people as the Qur’an does. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I never received any religious education. But even as a I child, I was very surprised to see that people did not remember or mention God. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I never live for myself. I live for the people I love. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I never have and never will claimed to be the Mahdi. Those who nevertheless accuse me of claiming to be the Mahdi are despicable and immoral. Adnan Oktar

Quote

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. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I met with Madonna for more than an hour in Çırağan Palace during her visit to Istanbul. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I love our Anatolian people very much. They are a role model for the whole world, with their superior morality. They have not been corrupted. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I love my sisters who prefer to wear the burkini or the hijab. I respect their will and patience. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I love my lady friends with a great love and passion for God. I am devoted to them with a profound love because I see them as manifestations of God. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I love God very much and I fear God very much. I cannot spend even a single minute in vain; my every moment is for God. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I love God, I fear from God. I am astounded that some people can’t recognize God and forget about Him. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I love every Muslim because they say, "La Ilaha Illa Allah Muhammad Ar-Rasul Allah." If they have a fault, I correct them by talking to them, not by bombing them, not by killing them. Was our Prophet (saas) preaching the message of God in Sud'Ukaz (the Market of Ukaz) by killing them? He was talking to them one by one. There were hypocrites, Buddhists, unbelievers, Masons around and he used to talk to every one of them. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I love cats very much. My lady friends are as cute and sweet as cats are. This is why I liken them to “kittens” when I compliment them. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I love all my lady friends with a profound and fervent love. Impassioned love shows the richness and deepness of one’s soul. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I look at TRT (Turkish Radio Television) and see that they call those anarchists "Kurdish insurgents." Why don't you call them Godless, Bookless, Stalinist, communist PKK? How can you identify them with the Kurds? Would our Kurdish brothers ever act like that? Our Kurdish people are radiant, decent people. By saying so, you are smearing the name of the Kurds. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I look at the wisdom, honesty and love in a woman’s eyes. I become eternal friends with those with love in their eyes. It is impossible to befriend someone who does not know love. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I look at people in the streets and see that their eyes are all empty. Why is that? It is because they have jealousy on one side, cruelty on the other; they have lovelessness on one side and fear from others on the other; they fail to submit to God on one side, and they have a competitive soul on the other. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I live my life the way I understand from the Qur’an. While making a criticism to a believer one should say ‘you are making a mistake according to “this” verse of the Qur’an.’ A criticism made without showing a verse from the Qur’an as evidence would have no meaning. When one says, ‘You are making a mistake according to ‘this’ verse,’ a believer would instantly heed that advice. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I live my life according to the Qur’an. If those who criticize me could show me verses from the Qur’an as evidence for their criticisms, I would succumb immediately. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I know that the Mahdi has come. I know that Prophet Jesus has come. But we have not met them yet. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I kiss those youngsters who kept silent while the azan is recited from their foreheads. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I kindly ask from our Minister of Defense so that they would distribute at least 1,500-2,000 meter range weapons to our soldiers. The quality of the gunpowder and the weapons they used should be perfect. May God not create an event to make them use those weapons, may God forbid, and the face of those weapons are cold yet they are a great deterrent. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I keep telling people that they should all pray for the Islamic Union; it will happen for sure. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I keep saying this insistently; had they advocated the modern understanding of Islam in Egypt, the whole of Europe and the US would have supported them. The whole world would love them, recognizing them as an amazing power as well. One should perform prayers, fast, give alms, make pilgrimage yet they should simply be modern. They resist this. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I hold youth in great esteem, they are very dear to me. Our youngsters are the ornaments of Turkey. Their humor is very sweet. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I haven’t gone on a vacation in 40 years. Whether it is a snowy or a hot summer day, I've never stopped preaching Islam. My conscience would never accept anything else. Adnan Oktar

Quote

“I have to make money and take care of the children, so you must excuse me.” But if you tell him, “we will give you 100 billion to market a company” then he will work day and night to do that. But if you say, “Do it for Allah” he will say, “I am too busy with my possessions and children.” Adnan Oktar

Quote

I have said that all political parties should come together in a meeting and support one another since this was a move against Turkey. With the meeting the CHP and the AK Party held together today, this is exactly what they did; they joined hands in the face of attempts against Turkey. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I have no fear of speaking the truth. I make no concessions on matters of faith. They imagine that my being joyful is some kind of relaxation of the faith. That is out of the question. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I have never personally met our President Mr. Erdoğan but I see that he is striving with all his sincerity on the Path of God. He protects and watches over all Muslims, he is a valiant person, he doesn’t even flinch under the pressure of the British deep state. We have seen his honesty since his served as the Mayor of Istanbul, we know him. We will be by his side till the bitter end, insha’Allah. Adnan Oktar

“I have never heard any statement of the Pope’s against the PKK. We should ask the Pope to issue a statement against the PKK”

Quote

I have never claimed to be the Mahdi and I'll never claim it for the rest of my life but the coming of the Mahdi and Jesus Messiah is a fact. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I have never claimed, and will never claim to be, the Mahdi. If I had such a claim I would have appeared on TV with a turban and would not be in contact with women, I would not have become a Freemason and I would not criticize the traditionalist understanding of Islam prevalent in the Islamic world. I have never been a person claiming to be the Mahdi and will never make such a claim. A physical resemblance is not a proof of the Mahdi. The only way we would recognize the Mahdi is when we see Islam prevailing in the world and a spiritual leader heading Muslims, the unity of Islam established and Jesus putting that person to the front to lead the prayer. We would then say, “God knows the truth, this person is the Mahdi.” Adnan Oktar

Quote

I have never approved atheistic Freemasonry and always made my intellectual stance against it very clear. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I have friends from all walks of life, with all sorts of beliefs. I have friends who are atheists and deists and I respect them all and their ideas. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I have deep love for all believers. Believers always approach believers with love. Adnan Oktar

$I have been writing about love for Atatürk in all my works for at least 20 years. With all necessary documents we put forth the fact that Atatürk was a sincere devout person. My works have been instrumental in removing the anti-Ataturk approach in some circles among the conservative fraction. With laws and the legal system we will not let even a single word uttered against Atatürk.$ Quote

Quote

I have a sincere and beautiful dialogue with young people. This is something that no other religious scholar has. Since we present a life style that young people want, they approach us with love and admiration. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I have a duty to support the innocent, let it be Christians or Jews, I am responsible for the protection of the People of the Book. This is something the Qur’an commands me. It is Allah’s command. Allah does not tell us to kill the People of the Book wherever we find them. They are entrusted to us by Allah. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I have a deep love for the Prophet Moses (as) as I do to all other prophets. He also prayed several times in order to be the Hazrat Mahdi (as). He also awaited Hazrat Mahdi (as). The Prophet Moses (as) knew that Hazrat Mahdi (as) would abide by the Qur’an. That is also why he wanted to be the Hazrat Mahdi (as). Adnan Oktar

I do not claim to be a religious hodja or scholar. Nor do I claim to be the Mahdi. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I do not accept changing an opinion by using force. I believe that the struggle against the PKK should always be intellectual. For instance, we are talking here; that is an intellectual struggle. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I do love my Kurdish brothers very dearly. They are all very precious people. They are devout and very modern. They keep their word, they are loyal and brave. They are very hospitable people. Our people residing in the Southeast of Turkey are very spectacular. They are very precious for us. Adnan Oktar

I do love Bediuzzaman Said Nursi and I am proud of that. I do love Sheikh Nazım Al-Qubrusi. I do love the Menzil community. I do love Süleyman Hilmi Tunahan. I do love His Highness Abdulbaki Erol. I do love all Muslims. I do not adopt the haughty attitude of some so-called intellectuals. I always express my love openly everywhere. Timid, cowardly, insincere attitudes always bring about disasters, inauspiciousness and nothing else. Adnan Oktar

Quote

I cannot think about vacation when there is so much pain around the world. That would not be a holiday; it would be suffering. Adnan Oktar

Quote

“I can live by faith and be together with those lacking faith at the same time,” he says. That is when hypocrisy begins. If you act together with the Prophet and with Muslims, then God will love you. But if you abandon Muslims and think you are being very clever, that is no good. Adnan Oktar
