How could a loving person be stingy? He would of course be very generous and distribute all he has in the path of God. When a person loves, he becomes crazy for the love of God. He would only have eyes for the love of God and he would say, "What else would I do with all these materials things?" He searches and becomes madly in love with the love of God.

The reason why there is economic depression all over the world is because people grew away from God.

This economic collapse that has never been seen before in the American history is a portent of the coming of the Jesus Messiah.

For an invincible country like the US, becoming helpless and the state going bankrupt, is a portent of the appearance of the Mahdi and a portent of Jesus Messiah being on his duty. God does that specifically for them to turn their faces to God. Almighty God does that to show the importance of love, mercy and compassion.

God assigns the Archangel Michael for economic rout. The Archangel Michael is the one who caused the economic rout in America; God commanded the Archangel Michael and caused the economic rout. Michael inspires people and makes them do as revealed. God is the One Who does that, but He makes the Archangel Michael instrumental in this.

God brought down the American economy. The reason behind this has to do the special groundwork for the appearance of Moshiach, the Mahdi (pbuh). God brought down Russia as well; all of that is for paving the way for the Moshiach.

The world is being designed for the system of the Mahdi, the economy is brought down, God creates great wars and turns the world upside down. But God protects Turkey by commanding the Archangel Michael. Almighty God says, “The Mahdi is there, do not touch those lands.”

Thousands of economic specialists gather together and are unable to put an end to this economic collapse. The wisdom of God, the Archangel Michael’s implementation, renders them helpless. The command comes from God.

A committee decided the collapse of the Russian economy. Almighty God uses a committee, a committee headed by Hazrat Khidr (pbuh). The Archangel Michael is also responsible for this.

Turkey is the most blessed country while Europe is in dire straits. Turkey is the country with the most healthy economy. There is a sound balance in between foreign trade and in domestic trade. And that happened thanks to AK Party. Ak Party has been instrumental in that success.

The whole world is in misery right now because of their stinginess. There are a handful of wealthy people and they constitute, let us say, 1% of the world's population and the other 99% is in poverty. As the manifestation of the Qur'anic verses, the whole world is in misery. If they give up that tight-fisted attitude, the whole world would become rich.

When people assume an attitude against Allah- may Allah forbid- Allah takes away their sustenance, Allah takes away their richness. This is the explanation of the economic crisis.

God makes the whole world grovel, the whole world is in a wretched state right now. And that is created specifically. There is no real reason for this world to be poor. There are vast lands. It is possible to carry out all sorts of agricultural activities. There is technology, there is everything. Amazingly, God creates economic crises and famines. There is no real reason for those. They are created miraculously. That is because people forget God. Had they praised God and invoked His Name, riches would have flowed all over them profusely.

The only reason for economic crisis is depression in faith. About 2014, there will be a religious growth in the whole world and this crisis will then be solved.

Some people talk within the lines "But how are we to find the money?" about helping those who are in need. God would bring plenty in folds. The good deeds that will be attained is important, attaining the good pleasure of God is important. If you attain the good pleasure of God, He would give you riches. If you do not act in a way to attain His good pleasure and are stingy instead, God would take away everything you have and you would lose all your goods and possessions.

When you love someone, you don't act curtly towards that person, you don't act stingy, you do not act egotistically; you look out for that person's comfort, you have that person's best interests at heart.

Stinginess is unlawful in religion. Becoming ambitious with what God has entrusted us and not distributing what God has given is not right according to the Qur’an.

Satan shouldn’t be allowed to deceive people by presenting salat and other religious services as difficult, Millions of people keep aloof from religion just because taking ablution and performing prayers are presented as if they are very difficult to do.

All the commands of the Qur’an are like livesavers. Or else people would be suffocated, life would suffocate them. Men are already living inside the stream called life. People succeed to remain alive without being suffocated because of these beauties. Without these blessings people would be suffocated and sink under this water

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.

Submitting to God’s Will is the greatest comfort in this world. Palaces wouldn’t make one happy, but submitting to God’s Will would. Once you submit to God’s Will, all sufferrings would dissappear. That is because man is created as weak. God has created this as a blessing to man.

One should seek refuge in God from profligating. One should seek refuge in God from tyrannizing. One should seek refuge in God from being haughty. If you behave haughtily, if you become a tyrann, if you profligate, God would destroy you.

Love is a requirement. If you attempt to attain something with egocentricity, the egocentricity you will be facing would suffocate you. If you step up cunningly, even more cunning ones would suffocate you. If you attempt to play tricks, the one you are facing would play ten times more tricks. Beauty cannot be attained with tricks, with rouses and with fraud; it can be attained with honesty, sincerity and love.

Russian people sufferred a lot. The world should protect them and show compassion to them. We should not leave them to their own means. It is a cold country, a cold climate, an outcasted community. We should put these away and approach them with compassion.

Love is the remedy for all troubles.
