A policy, an attitude that instructs women, I mean assuming a higher tone about them is really annoying and disturbing. Ladies are very wise, highly cultivated and high quality people. God created people as equals; both men and women are created as equals. They are equal in every aspect.

Women should be free. I mean no one is in a position to instruct women, they are in no position to counsel women. If anyone needs to counsel, it is women who should counsel men. I mean they should be given an edge over men in this respect.

While expressing respect for ladies with headscarves one should not forget to mention the ladies who do not cover their heads.

Men's interference on women should be lifted already. That is really embarrassing and it is the shame of centuries. People should be saved from this scourge in no time. Ladies should enjoy utmost freedom. They should be able to dress as ever they like, they should be able to talk as ever they like and go wherever they like.

It would be very wrong and shameful for ladies who cover their heads and those who do not to act superior towards each other.

We should respect women and know that they would do what is necessary to be done. Every woman knows very well how to protect her honor, her pride and her purity. They also know how to dress themselves.

Women are very gentile and kind beings. There are carnations in the gardens and they need to be looked after very meticulously. Or else they would die away instantly. That is the same with women, you need to pay attention to everything about them. For them to be spiritually and physically perfect they should be looked after even more meticulously than the flowers.

Women are sweet beings; they are very very beautiful beings. Women are the greatest blessings of this world. They are the greatest blessing the eyes can see. Freedom is very crucial for their happiness. They should be valued, they should be respected, protected and watched over.

If we were to say; "Why are you adorned like this? Why are you colored? Why are you full of colors? Why do you smell beautiful like this?" to the flowers, would that be logical? That shouldn't be asked to a woman either. "Why are you beautiful like this?" Do you want them to be ugly? Of course they will be beautiful.

Women like low neck dresses. They like to see their beauty appreciated. They like being well groomed. They are the adornments of this world.

They make a great fuss if ladies open their hair or their arms somehow. And they say that it is because they are attractive… If a person has ill-intentions, if a person is sick in mind, if there is a deviation in one's soul, if he does not have the will-power; it wouldn't matter for that person anyway. It wouldn't matter if it is a child or a woman or a man he is looking at. That is a matter of faith, a matter of belief, a matter of character.

Women want to live freely. It is very important to emphasize that they would not be oppressed. That is because men are completely free everywhere in the world. No one ever interferes with their business.

Woman is the greatest blessing God has created in the world. And also in the Hereafter, apart from God's manifestation, woman is the greatest beauty, the greatest blessing. That is why woman is the most beautiful blessing that addresses the human soul. Man is the same for woman.

Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will eventually make everyone appreciate the value of women. He will show people how to appreciate their worth.

The logic behind the oppression ladies are put through is horrible. They wear low neck dresses and that is regarded as an offense; they use headscarves and that is regarded as an offense; they wear hijabs and that is regarded as an offense as well. Whatever they do it is seen as an offense. And that is one of the troubles, one of the diseases that would go away in the time of the Mahdi.

To fire a lady just because she covers her head or just because she wears revealing clothes is not compliant with good conscience.

If one believes in the sufficiency of the Qur'an, radicalism would disappear; that scourge would disappear. The whole issue lies with believing in the sufficiency of the Qur'an. If you accept the sufficiency of the Qur'an, you would also feel love for Alevis, for Shias and for Wahhabis as well. You would then hold both ladies with scarves and also ladies who do not cover their heads and those who wear low-neck dresses in high esteem and respect all of them, love all of them. You would not make them uncomfortable.

The hatred in between some ladies with headscarves and some bare headed ladies should definitely be wiped out. Muslim woman should be like Hazrat Maryam, she should be lenient.

Ladies will of course adorn themselves; they will be adorned like flowers. Gentlemen will be adorned as well; they will be handsome. The time of the Mahdi (pbuh) is an age of adornment, an age of beauty.

Ladies with headscarves approaching to ladies without headscarves lovingly with compassion would solve the problems. In that case, the latter would not adopt an attitude against them.

When a certain level of maturity is attained in the time of the system of the Mahdi, headscarves will be free in the whole world, hijabs will be free. But I wouldn't know if ladies would wear hijab or not. That is because there will be such a secure environment that there will be no need to wear hijab. Hijab is worn on the condition that there is an unsecure environment. The Qur'an states that as a condition.

Pray to God saying; "Oh Lord, strengthen my faith. Increase my love for You." And never be too lazy, tired or weary while taking in knowledge.

We are friends with Israel and we are friends with the Israeli people. We have always loved our Jewish brothers and sisters; we loved them in the time of the Ottomans, we loved them in the time of our Prophet (saas) as well. We've always shown them compassion and no one would or could ever do anything contrary.

One needs to look and admire the rich details in God's creating. Then the love one feels for God would increase even further. When love increases so does the fear of God. When fear of God increases, so does your submission to God. When your submission to God increases, it would be as if your nerves are taken. Your mind would be at ease and you would be very much relieved. You would feel a sense of relief, a sense of contentment and ease insha'Allah.

All sufis – all of the ten great religious orders- have pledged allegiance to the Mahdi (pbuh). Consequently it is not possible for Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) to be subject to any sheikh. All sheikhs have become subjects to Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) whether they like it or not. At that moment all inspiration is distributed to the whole through Mahdi (pbuh).
