Great majority of Muslims have their foresight and perception closed. Or else how is it possible to seclude one's self and do invocations while children are being killed elsewhere? Do your invocations as you spend your time protecting them, do invocations that would save those children.

Angels intensify in places that people strive on the way of Allah. The places they like most are gatherings of invocation where discourses of Qur’an are made. And the archangels never leave Mahdi’s (pbuh) side.

One would be happy and have his mind relieved when he performs his prayers, when he performs ablution, when he submits to God’s will, mentions the Name of God, reads the Qur’an. God has created man in a way that he would feel that need. One would be suffocated if he doesn’t live all these beauties. These are all blessings that prevent one to be drawn in that water, these are lifesaving blessings.

A great majority of people might be in a forgetful mindset regarding God; one should not see them as real and be affected by them. God might be showing those people to him in such a state. For instance, one might be going to a disco or a nightclub and people there might not even say one word about God. He should not say, “So this is how people are. This is how this world works. Is there something wrong with me?” He should know that he is on the right path and the others have gone astray.

The power of enjoying things would be taken away from those who forget God in a very short time. They start saying, “I cannot have fun as I used to. I do not enjoy music as much as I used to. Something happened to me.” A miracle happened and you should see that. They start saying, “I am fed up with all these things, and maybe that is why.” In fact one would never be fed up with love, with beauty but a scourge befalls such people. One should always seek refuge in God.

Even the smallest effort is very valuable in the Sight of God. Reciting the Name of God even once would bring about abundance, contentment and stave off scourges.

ALWAYS KEEPING ALLAH IN HEART IS DHIKR (REMEMBRANCE). People may have a misconception of dhikr. People may assume that dhikr is recital of Allah’s name in a loud voice. KEEPING ALLAH IN ONE’S IMAGINATION, IN HIS MIND, BEING AWARE THAT HE LOVES ALLAH AND BEING CONSCIOUS OF THAT. IT IS DHIKR TO CONSTANTLY KEEP ALLAH IN HEART.

The US used to praise God's name profusely and it used to be rich. They started to grovel when they started to invoke God's name less and less. Russia used to invoke God's name less and they were groveling. Now they've started to talk about God and God gave them a little relief.

Being slack in talking about God is an unlawful act. This is an affliction upon the Muslim world. They do not feel the need to preach religion. They say, "There is the Religious Affairs Directorate and they are doing this anyway. Why should we preach religion?" The fact is, however, preaching religion is a religious duty upon all Muslims.

Some people get into a weird romanticism, a weird state of mind when one talks about religion. God should be remembered with a rational attitude.

Muslims talk about God wherever they are. Life and religion are intertwined. One remembers God while he is having a bath, while he is eating and he talks about God wherever they are and in any event. There is not a moment, not a place in their lives that they do not remember God. One should see that he can live comfortably live with the Qur'an, read the Qur'an very easily, wherever he is. The Qur'an will be with you wherever you go, the Qur'an will be right by your side when you go to bed and you will remember God when you are in bed as well.

Those who do not mention God, who distance themselves from God feel a sense of agitation and tension; a groundless sense of fear, a considerable anxiety. God afflicts them with restlessness.

Turkish people are known with their faith in God. Takbir (praising God) is food for our souls. Hearts find peace by praising God.

Mahdi (pbuh) is the one uniting Muslims. Mahdi (pbuh) is the one ensuring justice. Mahdi (pbuh) is the one who will remove all weapons from the face of this world.. What does this mean? The system of the Mahdi is the Qur'an practiced in life.

God tells us that He would accept the repentance of even the Pharaoh if he repents. The door for repentance would never be closed for anyone alive. We are responsible to call all sinners to repent. Repentance is acceptable for all sorts of sins. Saying "it wouldn't be acceptable for this or that person" would reflect a very loveless point of view and is not correct anyway.

If people were to go to Heaven without learning about love, their hearts would be completely empty. We have to learn about love before going to Heaven. Those who have no love in their hearts would not take pleasure from the blessings of the Heaven.

Humble and inoffensive ones will always win. The Ikhwan will not lose anything simply by assuming a humble attitude. They should embrace all walks of life within the society. They can govern the country together with people of all faiths, with people of all opinions, by forming a structure like a coalition. It would be very wrong to appear as confrontational, aggressive and stubborn structure.

God is the One Who defines morality. God is the One Who teaches people morality. We know morality because God taught us. It would be a grave witlessness to try to – may God forbid- teach morality to God. May God forbid, it is completely unacceptable to attempt to teach religion to God and to the Qur'an.

People should be set free; interventions to society on unnecessary matters might disrupt the balance.

It is not possible for Islam to prevail using the way of politics. Bediuzzaman says; "politics darkens souls." An intense politic ambition is observed in the Middle East.

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

Some of the Muslim scholars are tongue-tied right now; they do not utter even a single word about the Islamic Union.

They should pray to God in Egypt saying; "O Lord, make us live in unity, send us the Mahdi." They should constantly say that they want the Unity of Islam.

The bodies of hypocrites will get even larger in Hell.

It would not be acceptable to say; "May God only save this country!" That would not be acceptable. That would be egocentric. They should all be asking for the salvation of all Muslims.
