Living by Islam means beginning to live entirely in accordance with one’s conscience. It means entirely abandoning the mentality of denying the existence of God.

Every time a hypocrite makes things difficult for a Muslim, he finds he has been drawn a bit closer to hell. And troubles in this world also begin plaguing him even more.

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.

“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.

Trusting in unbelief but not in Muslims, that kind of hypocritical way of thinking, is something that attracts the wrath of God.

An insincere person will try to see Muslims as bad people and unbelievers as good people; he begins to turn everything upside down in his mind. But when a Muslim sees the existence of God with all its glory, which happens naturally when a person looks around himself sincerely, he will immediately want to follow the wisdom in the Qur'an.

Hypocrites think, “Muslims may one day be scattered and crushed, but unbelief can never be destroyed,’ They have always regarded unbelief as powerful, and they have always ended up defeated.

The hypocrite pays no attention to the warnings in the Qur’an. He is always hopeful about himself. He thinks that good things awaits him in the hereafter, despite all his dishonesty and immorality. Yet God reveals that they will occupy the lowest circle of hell.

The hypocrite wishes to return to his old beliefs and lifestyle at the first opportunity. His mind is always full of unbelief. That idea never leaves his head. After becoming a Muslim he still wishes to return to his old immorality, wild ways, lack of character, dishonor or whatever. He cannot forget that life of unbelief. He goes round and round but always ends up in the same place.

Weakness of faith renders one nonchalant. Such a person would not have the enthusiasm for spreading Islam, they would not have the strength to fear God. They only go after their own interests and their own problems. That is a grave problem.

We have a responsibility to behave sincerely. God creates Heaven even in Hell for those who are sincere. He gives blessings to sincere Muslims from where they least expect it. All those are hidden miracles of the Qur'an. People of faith understand this and see the covert signs of God, but heedless people would not see them.

One cannot have a beautiful morality simply by saying, 'Let me have good morality.' Good morality can only be attained by fearing God, by loving God. Otherwise one would not be generous. He would feel pain inside when he gives something to someone. Forgiving would make him enraged. Without faith, without the fear of God, forgiving becomes very unnerving.

It is not right to wish for Hell for anyone. One should only ask God for the other's guidance on to the right path and for goodness.

God says, "No one despairs of solace from God except for people who are disbelievers." It is quite abnormal to lose hope that people will become better. Advising such people and putting them on the right path is what should be strived for.

The fear and love of God prevents people from gazing purposelessly. There can be no explanation for the purposeless gazes of those who fear God. The gazes of those who fear God are definitely clever, piercing and watchful.

Our Prophet (pbuh) had a piercing gaze. Why? Because his heart was always with God. He feared God. But polytheists would stare vacantly. Because they would only care for the fullness of their stomachs. They were like animals, even lower than animals. Therefore, they would have animal-like gazes.

Believers find excitement in the eagerness to carry out jihad, that is to say, struggling intellectually for the sake of Islam. If the hearts of people are plagued by laziness and carelessness, they grow weary and negligent. They withdraw into themselves as they do not concern themselves with religion, fear of God, or love of God. They do not feel any excitement that will reflect on their faces.

In hell, the bodies of those who advocate evolution and creation by coincidence will look malformed and distorted as if they were created through mutation just the way they claim to exist in this world.

Seeing hell is a means for being grateful for believers in paradise. Irreligious people continue to be immoral and snobbish in hell.

A truly healthy life is possible only by following the Qur’an. The Qur’an cures. When people follow the Qur’an, their sorrow, despair and all their negativity will be replaced with health and peace of mind.

It is religiously forbidden to lose hope from the Mercy of Allah.

Actually it is very easy to make Islam prevail in the world but because of the hopelessness and fear of some religious people, some bigoted people Islam did not prevail in the world until now.

Muslims will go to the Heaven, unbelievers will go to Hell; but no one will be sure of him/herself. They will not be sure if they will go to Hell or to Heaven. They will be in between fear and hope. Allah wants it that way. By that, a Muslim would become perfect and very painstaking, insha'Allah.

If one acts with a weak, despairing mood, then he is defeated. Allah makes one successful if he remains hopeful and strong. This is the law of Allah, insha’Allah.

There is terrible turmoil all over the world. People may be wondering, ‘How can Islam ever prevail and how can the system of the Mahdi ever make any headway under these conditions?’ But that is the really amazing thing, how God will bring about the reign of Islam despite all these things.
