Muslims are always in a good mood. What does sorrow mean? May God forbid, it means, "I do not like what God has created for me." We see the goodness in everything God creates. We see the goodness in it when we have a martyr; we do not get sad, we do not mourn. Mourning is a custom of the pagans, it is the tradition of the idolaters.

A believer only weeps out of joy and happiness. He would never cry out of grief.

Believers should always be cheerful. Humans are created weak and such a being cannot afford to feel grief; that would destroy him.

Let the joy, beauty, excitement of faith spread all over. We want the happiness, beauty of heaven. We do not want tears. Believers should not cry and should always be happy. There is an attempt to hurt believers with grief.

Islam in the Qur'an is joy and celebration. Yet, there are all kinds of darkness in bigotry. What we intend is the Islam in the Qur'an.

Religion is joy, happiness and celebration. Islam is beauty.

Putting trust in God is obligatory; feeling grief is not acceptable.

Not feeling fear, not feeling grief or sorrow are precise provisions of the Qur'an. A Muslim should avoid them all. A Muslim who puts his trust in God does not experience sorrow, grief or fear.

It is alright to listen to music, it is alright to have fun and to laugh. Anything to the contrary would disrupt human nature; it would destabilize one's balance. May God forbid, you would make yourself fall ill if you disrupt your nature. Be joyous, be happy, have fun, laugh and be playful. That is how God created you. Otherwise, you turn in on yourself, you become ill, your health would then be disrupted, you would then lose your strength to think. It also makes it impossible for you to live by Islam.

Sleep is the weakness of this world. Every day after a certain hour one feels sleepy. They go and lay down to die and arise from death hours later. They bathe, they eat, again they feel sleepy at night. The time to die comes and they go die again. In the morning they arise from the dead again. Dying and arising from the dead, dying and arising from the dead, one's whole life goes on like this. In the end, they die for real and then arise from the dead in another world.

Almighty God creates life in a state of sleep; the Qur'an refers to this deep secret. People do not know that they are in a state of sleep in this world. Actually, they all are in a dream right now, they all are dreaming. Some of them, for instance philosophy researchers, realize this fact in a state of awe and dismay.

God creates day and night, sleep and seasons, all to disturb uniformity. God doesn't want monotony.

I will get tired if I stop serving Islam. Serving Islam makes me happier, more energetic, more committed. Serving your Loved One is the most beautiful feeling.

Sleep is a form of death. Every person, in a way, dies every night and comes back to life in the morning. Waking up from death will be like waking up to real life from a lucid dream.

One’s senses and perceptions become clearer with death. When they die, people will feel like their lives were just like a dream.

We are in a state of sleep right now. Life is a sort of sleep and we are dreaming. When we die, we will be awakening from this dream.

In order to increase a Muslim's enthusiasm Allah might make him err in his actions. In this way that person might become more devoted, more painstaking, more faithful.

THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY NEEDS A GREAT EXCITEMENT. A very great ardor. Ardor drags the masses. Otherwise, in the absence of ardor, neither a new discovery nor an attack, nor unity comes into existence. FOR THIS REASON, ALMIGHTY ALLAH GIVES THE GOOD NEWS OF HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) AND PROPHET JESUS (AS) SIMPLY TO GENERATE THAT ARDOR.

The more attacks are made on a Muslim by hypocrites, disbelievers and immorals, the more zeal and enthusiasm he experiences.

It is important that sincere, honest, modern -thinking pious people are at the forefront in all aspects of life. It is because such people are a guarantees for everyone: Christians, Jews, atheists: Those people fear God and won’t do anything that is not in good conscience. This is a great guarantee for everyone.

There is no hatred for Jews and Christians in Islam. On the contrary, they are protected as the People of Book in the Qur'an. A Muslim cannot have any aversion neither to them, nor to their places of worship. God tells us in the Qur'an that Muslims may marry Jewish and Christian ladies; indeed, some of the wives of our Prophet (saas) were Jewish and Christian.

In Islam, it is wrong to be averse to Jews. Surely, one can feel resentment towards those individuals who have committed sins or those who have oppressed people. In that case, those individuals should be held accountable through the legal system. But blaming the entire Israeli people, that is forbidden. It is not Islamic.

God has absolute power and we are His humble servants in need. All power belongs to Almighty God and whatever Almighty God ordains in destiny, it happens. We are His servants in complete submission to Him and everything we do is done with the power God has given us.

It is important to approach Muslims with compassion, no matter what. Because if you choose to get angry with them instead, you’d have to cut ties with almost ninety per cent of them. For instance, you call ISIS terrorists, and while we are vehemently against their ways, most Muslims in Afghanistan, Pakistan and India share the same views as ISIS: It is because they were raised that way. That is why we should try to save them, approach them with compassion, instead of severing ties with them.

The Western deep states, particularly the British deep state, have developed a new trick, a new method; they are trying to portray all Muslims as terrorists. They are working hard to ensure that.
