There is nothing in the Qur’an that says that people who listen to music or dance will go to hell. Bigots are turning the world into a living hell. It is wrong to ban things when God allowed them.

There is no commandment in the Qur’an about wife beating. On the contrary, the Qur’an exalts and protects women.

It is definitely not wrong to listen to music in Ramadan. Some people are hurting themselves by making things unlawful which God made lawful.

Gold is not made unlawful in the Qur’an. There is nothing in the Qur’an that bans wearing gold. Our Prophet (saas) might have taken certain temporary economic or moral precautions at the time, but gold is not banned.

The Qur’an is very open and clear. Anyone reading the Qur’an can easily understand the verses. People should pay attention to those who make so-called new rules based on superstitions and assumptions.

Anything other than the Qur’an will divide Muslims. Abiding by the Qur’an is the only way for the unity of the Islamic world.

Since I believe it is haram to charge a fee for explaining religion, I receive no royalties from any of my books. One should not take money for conveying the message of faith.

Following the Qur’an completely, being devoted to God with a very deep love; that will improve the physical and mental health of a person.

Claiming that Islam is founded on only five pillars is not right. Islam commands the observation of all the verses in the Qur’an.

Bigots are driving people away from religion with rules that are not in the Qur'an. For example, there is no headscarf in the Qur'an. But ladies are supposed to wear hijab only if they feel unsafe, and only until the danger is gone.

Drinking alcohol is wrong according to Islam. Alcohol is nothing but pure poison; there is nothing fun about poisoning oneself. Even if it was allowed by Islam, it is not something to be drunk.

Some sycophants of the British deep state are acting as spies in Turkey as well. Our government should be very cautious about them.

God says that He explained everything in the Qur'an. Those who reject the Qur'an as a sufficient guide are defying God’s words. "We have sent the Book down to you to explain everything, and for guidance and mercy, and as good news for Muslims." Qur’an, 16: 89

Some people display a greedy attitude when shown kindness. This attitude is both rude and wasteful. Wasting is unlawful.

The fact that those criticizing the government voice their ideas freely demonstrates the strength of democracy in Turkey. There is no need to be disturbed by that.

The religion that claims women should be beaten, that art should be forbidden and that joy is unlawful is not the true Islam of the Qur’an.

Listening to music, taking photos, dancing, art, science, beauty, having fun; none of those are unlawful by religion.

By implication, one can’t derive decrees from the Qur'an. God reveals the lawful and unlawful deeds by means of precise verses.

The British deep state is almost camped in Ankara. Our Assembly and government should be very cautious.

A Hypocrite's character is very dangerous. We see a severe hypocritical attack against the government. We must be united as a nation against this.

Turkey should act in unity. This period we are going through necessitates the government and opposition parties to act as one.

Turkish young people today are level-headed, pious but against bigotry. This is very good.

It is a blessing that our refugee brothers and sisters came to our country. We are privileged because we are like Ansar of the time of Prophet Mohammed (saas).

Our Prophet (saas) was a very modern, cheerful, extroverted person. Every prophet was the most modern person of his day.

One should live according to the Qur’an, rather than only memorize it. At our Prophet’s time, there were some scribes, and they memorized the revelation but they still turned out to be hypocrites.
