They aim for a benumbed, insentient youth instead of an energetic, vigorous one. Through the traditionalist Orthodox Islamic mentality, they want people’s brains and souls to decay; they are corrupting their nature and trying to turn them into misogynists. They are destroying the [idea of] feminine beauty. And this is how they sneakily devastated the Middle East. People should not fall in to this trap.

The traditionalist Orthodox Islamic conception removes people’s vitality and paralyzes their minds. Societies that suffer constant oppression emerge as a result of this.

Islam religion is promoted as a hell by those abiding by the traditionalist Orthodox Islamic conception. The religion they promote is like a system that is bent on clouding the mind, insight and foresight, destroying all its vital aspects, eliminating art, aesthetic and beauty, one that virtually despises happiness of people. It is a system that ruins people by turning them into schizophrenics. It is impossible for people to maintain a normal mental and physical health within the confines of the traditionalist Orthodox system.

They think that it is heroic to complicate Islam to the point of being impracticable. They want plenty of things to be rendered unlawful. Yet they don’t even refrain from committing the deeds declared unlawful by themselves. They say, "Otherwise everything would become lawful". That is the way Islam is; everything is lawful. Unlawful deeds are in the few. Such compulsion has no place in Islam. Prayers are quite easy to perform as well. Bigots are devastating the religion by complicating it.

It is an evil system to complicate religion to the point of being impracticable, and devastating religion by creating a population unable to live it. However, God offers us a straightforward religion through the Quran, a religion that can be lived by all the communities. Bigots make people abandon it and adopt a religious conception that is impracticable and hellish instead.

Through bigotry, satan has dealt a powerful blow that aims to destroy Islam. Under the influence of satan, bigots render prayer impracticable and ablution impossible to perform.

They can’t believe that women can be free or that people can be happy. God doesn't want difficulty for people, He wants freedom for them.

Arts, entertainment, beauty and music are not forbidden in Islam. They ruined the Islamic world by taking all the beauties away from Muslims.

In order to oppose the traditionalist system, one needs to be very brave. They isolate and oppress their opponents.

Bigotry renders life unlivable. The generations were raised to be bigots. They find it hard, odd, and baffling to lead modern, beautiful, cheerful, aesthetic, and high-quality lives. They will have to get over this.

Bigotry is a dark ideology. It suffocates people. People assume they should live in darkness. When they first see the light, they become dazzled and say "I cannot live in such brightness." But as they live, they will get used to it. In time, their eyes will get used to the brightness.

We are the pride, and the bright, modern face of Islam against the dark traditionalist Orthodox Islamic conception. We are a community that Muslims can show as an example with ease and a clear conscience.

I love Armenians, I love Jews, Catholics, Orthodox, all Christians. I love everyone whom God has created.

It's so fine that there are devout Orthodox, Jews and Muslims in Russia. It would be so fine to see synagogues and churches to be full of devout people.

Some people confuse the dark world of radicalism with true religion and try to defend it. It is not what God wants. True Islam is the opposite of radicalism.

I never adopt a destructive tone towards anyone. Although I don't agree with them on many things, I still respect people with traditional orthodox beliefs and I won’t stay silent if they are mistreated.

Because the traditional orthodox understanding of Islam has shown prayer (salat) as if it is too complicated to perform, many stay away from prayer.

Our traditional orthodox brothers/sisters are almost suffocating themselves with fabricated rules. They made themselves an easy target for the disbelief system.

Young people are offered two options; either a conservative, orthodox world or a cold, distant socialist world. Therefore, they don't realize that there is another option, which is the loving, free, happy, pleasant life offered by Islam as described in the Qur’an.

Some people are prejudiced against religion because they’ve seen the horrors of the bigoted mindset. However, true religion is the opposite of that.

Atheists are frustrated with the superstitions introduced by traditional orthodox system. The bright spirit of the Qur’an must be told to them.

Many people live alone in misery due to pressure from society and the traditional orthodox system. They cannot experience love at all.

Stalinism cannot exist without a state. A proletarian dictatorship is an indispensable characteristic of Stalinism. No one would adopt the Stalinist mentality otherwise. In other words, it would be pointless to become a communist. Why do people establish parties? In order to constitute a state.

God says, "No one despairs of solace from God except for people who are disbelievers." It is quite abnormal to lose hope that people will become better. Advising such people and putting them on the right path is what should be strived for.

People who [figuratively] step into the living cell feel as if they've just stepped into the city of Istanbul. It is that extensive. You could realize the existence of God from even a single cell.
