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 system of the Mahdi continues its normal course but its pace changes from time to time. Sometimes it escalates, sometimes it continues with a reasonable pace. God regulates that pace. Meaning everything moves according to the planning of God.

The system of the Mahdi will not work with projects. The system of the Mahdi doesn't work with adjustments. There is a structure God wishes and that develops naturally. It is just like a baby developing in a mother's womb. They imagine that they will be creating that child. You cannot do that, God creates it. When the time comes, that child is born and you cannot stop it.

Almighty God does not let anything stand before the system of the Mahdi, He doesn't accept any obstacle standing before it. He doesn't give teeth to any movement against the system of the Mahdi. Only the way of the path of the system of the Mahdi is open.

They see the system of the Mahdi as a palace and say, "Here's the cement, here's the iron; you build and decorate it and here is your palace." There is no such thing. That palace is in the Sight of God. The system of the Mahdi is in the Sight of God. It is in the flow of destiny, that is something inside the role and it develops metaphysically.

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.

Very rare, elect people, those who are specifically been inspired by God, those who are taken into a deep sleep approach the Mahdi (pbuh). Just like the People of the Cave. Such a person would not be able to go anywhere even if he wants to, because it is in his destiny. The will of a genuine student of the Mahdi would not be able to leave him. But the other ones cannot become his students even if they want to.

Those following the Mahdi, those who are God-fearing are the students of the Mahdi (pbuh) and - God willing- they are the people of Heaven. Our Prophet (saas) refers to those 313 students as the center.

The community of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) continues until Hijri 1506 (2082-2083 ). After Hijri 1506, the form of preaching the message of religion, their system changes completely. I mean after that date, Muslims would only be able to communicate with each other with very secret, hidden symbols, because they will kill all Muslims. The Qur'an will be burned and there will be nothing left pertaining to acts of worship. They will burn down the mosques, they will demolish the Kaba'a and only the plain field of the Kaba'a will remain. They will not leave behind anything pertaining to what is holy.

The real Mahdi (pbuh) has small power. I mean he has a small community, a small group of friends. Almighty God loves creating big things from scratch, He loves making tiny things great. For instance, God creates a big, 25 or 30 meter high fig tree from a small, tiny fig seed within 15 to 20 years and lets us eat hundreds of thousands of figs from that tree.

The whole issue is in submitting to God wholeheartedly and in loving God. Once you attain that, you would progress steadily on the right path. You might want to go faster, but God would not let you speed up. The system of the Mahdi is a system that progresses slowly. The followers of the Mahdi blossom out slowly as well. No matter how much they want it, no matter what they do, God makes them fill in that preordained time.

If you are looking for the Mahdi's group, God presents evidence in the Qur’an. He says, “Follow those who do not ask you for any wage” When we look at religious scholars and teachers, we see that almost all of them are getting paid: Ninety nine percent of them are getting paid. If you want to find the Mahdi group, you will recognize them when they don’t ask for a wage.

Nobody can stand against the system of Mahdi despite that there only a small group of people working for it and a large group of people, primarily involving the shadow states, the bigots, the polytheists, the hypocrites, opposing it. This is a miraculous aspect of the system of Mahdi. The Mahdi and his followers are invincible; they are not destined to be defeated.

In the time of our Prophet, the families of the Companions did not want them to see our Prophet (saas); they made incredible pressure. In the time of the People of the Cave, the families of young people, their relatives and the majority of people were against religion and they put pressure on their children. Likewise, in the time of the Mahdi (pbuh) young people will follow the Mahdi despite their families’ and society’s pressure.

Our Prophet (saas) explained that at the time of the Mahdi (pbuh), a selfish, hateful character would be prevalent and people would stay away from the Mahdi. In fact, some people have no qualms about befriending immoral people, but choose to stay away from the students of the Mahdi, who are among the greatest.

God does not only send Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh), but He also sends Hazrat Mahdi's students as well. People might assume that it is only Hazrat Mahdi that is being sent but that is not the case. His 313 students are sent specifically as well.

Secret knowledge masters in the Mahdi (pbuh). People are superficial, yet the works of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) are based on profundity. That is why only his 313 students are strong enough to be with the Mahdi (pbuh).

313 people that will accompany Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will be people who have complete faith in Allah.

Great ideals, great cases are not dealt through logic. This is also the case with the system of Mahdi. What can be accomplished with 313 people? In compliance with logic, nothing can be done. But it can be accomplished by wisdom.

The characteristic of the Mahdi (pbuh) is that he has such an exalted conscience. His good conscience is higher than that of others; that is it. Or else, it is not because he has a special ability, a special superiority.

When one gives his life on the path of God, that is what God approves of the most. God defines it as the greatest form of demonstration of love; martyrdom, being a martyr for God.

Those who are after their own pleasure want to be on both sides, they want to go be with Muslims and with the others as well. They want to have fun both here and there but when they face the slightest difficulty, when something conflicts with their interests, they flee instantly. Again when things seem to be at his sweet will, he sniffs and looks around. He approaches things if he sees no problem. He imagines that he can really attain some results from such a behavior. However if he acts this treacherously, knowingly and intentionally, his reward would be ever heavier. He won't be saved by that occasional coming and going.

If the PKK doesn't lay down their weapons willingly, a military solution could be sought. We do not want to live under the shadow of weapons. We do not want a Southeast in which weapons rule.

Almighty God only looks if he is a Muslim or not. I mean there is no such thing as a semi-hypocrite or a semi-Muslim. God says "Everything you do would go to your idols.” For instance, he behaves 5% for God and 95% for his idols. Everything he does would then go his idols. Or on the contrary, he behaves 95% for God and 5% for idols; that would go completely to idols as well. God says, "You should do everything you do only for Me."

The PKK should be wiped out of the region with laws and the legal system. That would be a great lesson for the US. But it should be done in cooperation with Iran. They should make an agreement with Iran, they should jointly decide on annihilating the PKK within the mainframe of the law. I mean they should make an agreement about the fight against terrorism. That would form an enormous power. The two of them should wipe the PKK off the region together.
