If a person is very egocentric, if he likes himself a lot, if he has an extreme air of haughtiness, all his body becomes egocentric. The whole body becomes his ego. His whole body becomes sick. I mean he becomes insane. That is what happened to Pharaoh, to Nimrod. They lost their sanity. When that is the case, satan settles in their body. They become unable to act rationally and in a balanced manner. They lose the ability to be reasonable.

There should be no pride involved in love, since if there is pride, love ends. Pride and lack of forgiveness are the poisons of love. People thus fail in managing love. However, forgiveness, bringing your pride under control, putting your pride aside, this clears the way for love to the fullest extent.

As long as Turkey proceeds on the path of mercy and compassion, everything will be abundant.

Pride has enveloped the entire world. Every country claims to be superior . However, it is only God Who is superior and grand.

Pride has enveloped the entire world. Every country claims to be superior . However, it is only God Who is superior and grand.

Believers do not approach each other haughtily; they are compassionate and merciful towards one another.

Pride is a feeling that actually humiliates and degrades the proud. Humbleness and swallowing one’s pride and apologizing is truly noble.

Satan, hypocrites and unbelievers are like evil-producing machines. They never feel any remorse and are arrogant.

The people’s pride and well-being is important. President Erdogan makes his decision based on the well-being of the Turkish people. Opposing these state decisions taken for the well-being of the people due to personal pride would be very wrong.

Despite all their weaknesses, it is miraculous that most people have an ambition to have the upper hand and are very proud. A noble, decent person would not resist criticism.

Solely saying "I love God" would not be enough, fear of God is very important. A person who has no fear of God would proud and arrogant. When one feels fear of God, a perfect morality would be formed. Such a person wouldn't be arrogant and egocentric, he would be loving and honest.

Unity of Islam cannot be established with pride and claim of superiority, no country would ever accept that. It can only be possible with a spirit of service, with respect, with love and compassion.

PKK knows that Allah exists, how can they not? They are doing these merely because of pride. Actually there is not even one single PKK who does not believe in Allah.

The only solution against communist way of thinking is to explain that person that his/her ideas are wrong without offending him/her. He/She would not understand if you explain things in an offending manner. That person would go against you and obstinate. You have to explain without hurting his/her pride.

In respect of solution for terror; scientific struggle with compassion, love, reason, mercy, by putting out an effort without offending anyone, with a kind hearted approach is the key and scientific explanations would solve the matters fundamentally. Apart from that, if the other side feels like things are going on in an assertive manner, turning into a war of pride, it would be very difficult for them to be convinced. Scientific explanations and addressing the good conscience would be enough.

Genuine Muslims are humble, they are tranquil, they are companionable. They never engage in artificial behaviors, they never act haughtily, never put on airs pretending to be a pompous hodja or a mullah. They do not put on airs pretending to be a saint. They do not put on airs pretending to be a crispy voiced, special guy. Their manners are always normal and kind.

For the Unity of Islam there should be no haughtiness or a feeling of superiority. It should be very well emphasized that this is a desire to serve and to present beauties, because a patronizing attitude is one of the things that annoy people the most.

Some communists are freakishly proud. They must overcome it and be rational.

One should never severe his connection with God. Many things could happen that might appear to be against him, many things might go wrong, but one should nevertheless follow a very rational policy that doesn't mind stepping back when necessary. Muslims are humble people and assume God's sense of right and wrong. Acting moderately as much as possible is what suits a Muslim. Sudden and unrestrained reactions would block one's rationality.

A Muslim would not respond to foolishness with foolishness, to instability with instability, to rage with rage, to anger with anger. One needs to be rational and always be aware of the fact that God is with him; that is because God is the One Who makes the others do those abnormal acts. Consequently a Muslim would be aware of the fact that no one is an independent being, so he would not worry.

God does not want us to have only medium wisdom while preaching Islam and disseminating His Message. He wants us to have superior wisdom. Islam would not be disseminated with a mediocre rationality and wisdom; that is because some anti-Islam fronts are in a struggle against Muslims in an ambitious alliance by advocating numerous other philosophies.

God is the Creator of even the maddest or the most abnormal acts. Individuals are not the perpetrators; no one can ever act outside destiny. That is why one needs to be moderate, poised and rational when evaluating incidents taking place.

Sentimentality and anger are beneath Muslims. That is because a Muslim always acts with God in mind. He always thinks rationally and equitably. He never forgets that God is the One Who creates everything, even those things that appear to be the most horrible incidents.

Fear of the future is religiously unlawful, a Muslim cannot think that way. God is the One Who creates every single second of our lives. All the precautions you take might come back to you as troubles. For instance, you might think about saving money but that might all end up going for cancer treatment or somehow otherwise be spent. You buy a house and God makes it collapse on top of you. One cannot put his trust in such things, but only in God. Anything other than that would be very wrong and would offend God.

A Muslim should fiercely stay away from fear of the future. That [fear of the future] means you do not put your trust in God but in that house you bought, or in the money you've saved up somewhere. God would devastate you. Furthermore, what good would that money be to you once God brings troubles upon you? Such a thing is not acceptable. No one dies out of hunger, no one who placed his trust in God has ever been harmed.
