Reason and the Qur’an is one in the other; one needs to have a full grasp of the Qur’an to be reasonable. That is why one should think according to the Qur’an.

It is an art to put the Qur’an into practice. A wise, reasonable person would understand the Qur’an very well and very nicely put it into practice in his life. For instance, he’d know how to be humble, how to erase the feeling of haughtiness, how love is experienced.

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.

They have invented a new religion from made-up hadiths and they are calling it Islam. In fact the religion Qur’an preaches us is called Islam. A religion that consists of made-up hadiths cannot be called Islam. That is a polytheistic religion.

When one remains aloof from the Qur'an, the wisdom goes away, that person's attitudes become unwholesome, they no longer pay attention to what is religiously lawful and what is not and they become unstable. But if one abides by the Qur'an, his mind settles, his works go well, an abundance comes upon him, a radiance, a pleasantness, a blessing settles upon him. That is why holding on to the Qur'an tightly is very important.

At the time of the Mahdi (pbuh) religious sects will be abolished. Everyone acts according to the Qur'an. The whole of humanity would then be entering the plain, beautiful, immaculate, upright religion, that is Islam, and they would all be living by it with peace, security and abundance.

Because a religion that ascribes partners to God –may God forbid- has infested the whole world, Islam that is purely based on the Qur'an is lived by in only a few places. What is dominating [the world today] is the religion that ascribes partners to God.

Religion is the spirit of this world. God gives religion as a blessing in this world. As He creates the world, God teaches us how to use this world with the Book, like a prospectus. If you use it as God tells us to, the world turns into a heaven on earth.

God refers to a leader in the verses of the Qur’an and He refers to a leader selected to lead the Muslims. Muslims would not be leaderless after all.

A person making use of his or her conscience, one who abides by the Qur’an would see the clear path of Islam, the path of the Companions; he or she would see the path of the system of the Mahdi.

Advocating both Darwinism and the Qur’an is not acceptable. One has to chose one of them and the chosen one should definitely be the Qur’an. Those who are left in between Darwinism and the Qur’an are actually advocating a diseased mindset.

Our Prophet (saas) used to communicate only the command of the Qur'an and not get into details about religion.

The Qur’an is pure revelation. That is why those who read the Torah should definitely read it with the Qur’an. Those who read the Gospels should read it with the Qur’an. Or else they might get confused and be misinformed, may God forbid.

Concealing the miracles of our Prophet(saas) is a great offense in respect of religion and the Qur'an; it is one of the greatest mischiefs.

God tells us not to come up with additional, made-up, false commands to the Qur'an.

Submission to God, Islam as told in the Qur'an and an attitude against radicalism will bring peace and tranquility to the region. And that is the system of the Mahdi, Insha'Allah.

Radicals will not be able to change the commands of the Qur'an by making additions to the Qur'an. Islam will prevail as God willed, just like it was in the time of the Companions.

There is no irregularity, no shortcoming or no conflict in the Qur'an. The Qur'an does not contravene science; verses do not contravene other verses, they do not contravene historical incidents. All the information given is confirmed in time. That is the miracle of the Qur'an, Alhamdulillah.

Compassion, mercy, reason and love is what the Qur’an stands for. Terror prevails everywhere love does not.

People who read the Qur'an should know that they would come to realize the profundity of reason in every single verse they read. The same is valid for the Torah. That is the reason why Jews read the Torah day and night. Consequently both their morality and their personality develop.

The Qur'an is very pure and simple. There are repetitions in almost more than half of the Quran. That is for people to grasp the meaning very well. Consequently God explains us the orderly and simple rules of reason in the Qur'an. Implementing all that are explained in the Qur'an would make us very reasonable and very coherent.

The Qur'an is also the book of reason.

For you to be able to talk to radicals, to be able to discuss with them, you need to respond to all explanations of radicals with the Qur'an and you should be advocating the Qur'an without any compromise.

The most influential, modern understanding of Islam, the understanding of Islam like it was in the time of the Companions, is explained by us clearly, openly and without any compromise. We are not temporizing anything; we are explaining everything directly and honestly, exactly as they are.
