Yes to freedom of thought! No to insults and revilement! No Turkish court is sentencing anyone because of their ideas. The offence people are sentenced for, are slanders and insults.

Stating an opinion is one thing, slandering is another. There is law and there is a legal system. We will not let anyone slander and revile.

No one accepts insults when they are aimed at their own persons. Yet they strive to present insults aimed at believers as normal.

Freedom of speech is for expressing ideas, not for cursing.

We do not cast people out calling them communists. We strive for them to attain faith. We do not cast people out calling them Masons. We strive for them to attain faith. We communicate religion to Christians, to Jews, to everyone. We do not feel hatred or hold grudge against irreligious people or atheists or Buddhists, or against any community, tribe or religion. We approach them all with compassion so that they can learn about Islam and the Qur'an, insha'Allah.

The best thing to do is to voice ideas without giving rise to an environment of conflict.

It is a beauty for youngsters to be free in their beliefs. No one is obliged to accept any idea, let everyone be free.

People who honestly say that they are atheists are reliable, hypocrites on the other hand are evil.

We cannot impose our understanding of morality to others, we cannot interfere anyone’s beliefs.

Justice means to protect not only the Muslim, but also the Christians, Jews, atheists and communists.

Targeting the happiness of people is the characteristic of the system of the Mahdi. The system of the Mahdi is not oppressive, it would interfere with anyone else's faith or opinion. Everyone will be free. A very devout center will present love to everyone.

Jews and Christians believe in Allah. Of course we love them. And we feel compassion towards atheists as well. Furthermore we, as Muslims, find ourselves to blame and think; "this means that we haven't been able to reach as many people as we should; so we should communicate religion even more, we should preach religion."

Ten thousand atheists wouldn't be able to do as much irreligiousness propaganda as done by ten radicals! Look and see how their acts shake Turkey from time to time.

Muslim, Christian, Jewish or atheist.. we protect everyone who is wronged.

It is needless for atheists to be troubled with criticisms. I am merely showing an effort for those atheist friends to go to the Heaven as well. I want them to have a peaceful and comfortable life. Normally I could have completely ignored them but we are the only ones among religious circles who approach atheists and communists with compassion.

There is no compulsion in religion, no coercion in religion. People can think as ever they like. Allah puts us in a trial, what does trial mean? You decide with your free will.

PKK has nothing to do with Zoroastrianism. PKK is a Darwinist, materialist, communist and atheist organization.

There is no compulsion in religion. No one can be forced to perform prayers, fast and give alms. Those can only be done most sincerely and willingly.

There is no violence in the Qur'an; the only condition war in which is considered acceptable in the Qur'an is defense. When a persecutor attacks, we defend ourselves. There is no persecution, no pressure in the Qur'an. You simply defend yourself when attacked by persecutors. The verse is explicit. God says; "There is no compulsion in religion." (Surat Al-Baqarah; 256) God also tells us to say; "O you disbelievers! You have your religion, I have my religion." ( Surat Al-Kafirun; 6) How do you come up with compulsion with these verses?

One might be an atheist. Being an atheist is a crime in the Sight of God, not before His servants. You cannot interfere with that. In the verses of the Qur'an, God says; "Say; you have your religion and I have my religion." One might be an atheist, one might be devout, one might have another religion; all are possible. God says "There is no compulsion in religion."

Saying "I do not like the opinions of this person, so I will bomb him," is not acceptable. You simply talk to him, explain things to him and if he doesn't acknowledge the truth, it is all you can do. If he does acknowledge the truth, that would be great. There is no compulsion in religion. There is no such method of knocking sense into a person with bombs and weapons.

Making religion difficult is a cruelty inflicted upon the whole world. That is because people suffer anguish when they become estranged to religion.

Some people think that they would get even closer to God as they complicate religion. Actually you would end up in Hell for failing to give an account for keeping people away from God's religion. One should show people the ease in religion, just like God has revealed.

Religion is love, it is relief, beauty, exhilaration and joy. It enables you to use the blessings of God legitimately in the most beautiful manner. An understanding of religion which claims that it is an offense to turn right or to turn left, to look upwards or to look downwards, is not acceptable. That would devastate people make them psychopathic and cause them lose their sanity. It is cruelty to complicate religion. And they are carrying out this cruelty without being aware of it.

Talk about Allah. Our hearts feel relieved with the mentioning of Allah. We love Allah. We live for Allah.
