People are in need of Mahdi, not the other way round. Some naive people presume that Mahdi (pbuh) will go to them. In fact they will be going to the Mahdi (pbuh).

One wouldn’t become the Mahdi by striving for it. One wouldn’t become the Mahdi by propaganda. The Prophet Moses (pbuh) did not become a prophet by propaganda; he didn’t become a prophet by striving for it either. He became a prophet because of his morality, because of his patience in the face of hardships.

One cannot become a Mahdi simply because he wants to become the Mahdi or by working hard for it. One is born to be the Mahdi (as) and God preordains in destiny who Mahdi (as) will be. Fame and making fuss wouldn’t ensure it, working hard wouldn’t ensure it. It is all about the heart. The system of the Mahdi is all about profound faith.

Returning to the times of Ottomans is never a possibility. I mean there is no policy to be called neo-Ottomans. There is only the policy of the system of the Mahdi. The system of the Mahdi is what we call the unity of the Islamic world. And the person to lead that unity is called the Mahdi. That will be made possible with the support of the Jesus Messiah.

Mahdi (pbuh) is the person who performs everything that is beautiful, everything that is really very very beautiful. He is the one who will encourage the performance of beauty, the one who will perform beauty and who will make the world perform beauty.

The duty of the Mahdi (pbuh) is to be a man of love. He teaches love and beauty; this is his profession. God makes one love, God makes one love all those He created. The person charged of making the world a place like heaven is called the Mahdi.

All the Islamic world is restless. No state could bring about peace and tranquility to the Islamic world. Russia is restless, Europe is restless, USA is restless. The whole world will attain peace and tranquility with the Jesus Messiah and the Mahdi (pbuh) insha'Allah.

Striving to be the Mahdi, putting an effort to this end wouldn’t be enough. One needs to be born as the Mahdi. He should be assigned as the Mahdi in his destiny by God.

If it is possible for me to enter the Freemasonry lodges as a Grand Master and I will of course use this means in the best possible way. That is because Masons are the ones ruling over this world now.

Now we have the means to enter the Freemasonic lodges as we like. We can attend to Masonic conventions and all other meetings we like… And we have the possibility of entering those meetings as the Grand Master. That will give us wide scaled opportunity to carry out activities to preach religion to the Masons insha'Allah.

I am a 33rd degree Freemason. I now have the right to enter the freemasonic lodges. I do have the right to enter the lodges in the States and in Europe, I have the right to enter the lodges all around. And I have the right to enter these lodges as the Grand Master. I have to right to give conferences and have talks as the Grand Master. I wouldn't be able to enter these lodges without being a Freemason, I wouldn't have the means to communicate religion under their roof if I were not a Freemason.

We are talking here, but we are not paid for this. On the contrary we are spending all that we have to be able to talk about God and to make religion loved.

We are sent to this world to serve God, to serve religion. We are sent here to experience good morality, love and loyalty. Those who are after worldly interests are living in a parasitic mindset. Actually in that sense, no one would ever die of hunger or sleeplessness. A Muslim would never covet any worldly interests. He would submit himself wholly to God.

Jihad: "Jahd" means striving. These people, however, understand jihad as chopping people up. Instead of chopping up that person, would it not be better if you try to persuade that person, if you persuade that person with your ideas? When you chop that person up you would be annihilating that person, he would not have the opportunity to be a Muslim! Yet if you preach religion, if you tell them about God, they would come to believe.

In the time of the Companions, the results were all taken with love and compassion. The love of our Prophet (saas) became famous and hundred thousands of people became Muslims in groups. They came to embrace faith not because violence was perpetrated, but because of love.

The 40 years' life span of the PKK is completed. Our Prophet (saas) says in his hadiths; "The life of the antichrist is 40 years," he says. Because that lifespan has come to an end, God has given the command for the ruin of that lot. I mean it is Hazrat Khidr (pbuh) who executes that command. That is to say, when a command is given for the ruin of a group, we should know that Hazrat Khidr (pbuh) is the one who undertakes that command.

Godless, Bookless, irreligious, faithless; the PKK lot is now a history. Just like the people of Nimrod, just like the people of Pharaoh buried in history, they too are history now.

While faithlessness is wreaking havoc in the world; one of the most beautiful services for Islam is to communicate facts leading to faith.

Those persecutors in Syria and in Egypt will certainly be defeated. All persecutors will certainly be defeated, that is the law of God. In mass destructions God keeps Muslims away.

Torturing animals is moral turpitude. It is cruelty. Almighty God destroyed a nation because they tortured an animal; there is a verse in the Qur’an to that effect. The ruling against torturing an animal is very heavy. See that God ruins a whole nation. Those who do that are subjected to the wrath of God.

Acceptance of the Truth only becomes possible after worldwide violence. Without that violence, the acceptance seems impossible. We see this in the Ad tribe and the Thamud tribe and all the other tribes. There has to be violence. People tend to leave this world behind when faced with violence and start thinking about the Hereafter.

Allah would not curse a nation as a whole. Curse that is mentioned in some verses refer to those people in unbelief among that nation. Expecting an unjust approach from Allah would come to mean failing to know Allah.

The reason why the People of Lot were devastated was homosexuality. God has informed that homosexuality is an evil and abominable perversion.

When Muslims become divided and fall into conflict with each other, God regards it as persecution. Muslims should be in unity, not in conflict.

If a person is intimidated and forced into accepting an opinion, hatred will be formed in his/her subconscious towards that opinion. People should be warmed into ideas by making them love these ideas, by persuasion and by gentle placation. It should be done reasonably and peacefully through democratic means.
