Perform your prayers (Salat) 5 times a day. If you cannot do that perform 4 times, if you cannot do that, perform 3 times, if you cannot do that then perform twice- once in the morning and once in the evening- if you cannot do that pray for once- only in the mornings or in the evenings- or if you still cannot do that, perform Cuma (Friday) prayers, or else perform your prayers in feasts. Let there be no brothers, sisters of ours who do not perform their prayers, they should all perform their prayers by all means, insha'Allah.

One would miss beauty. He would miss thanks, miss love. He would miss affections. How nice it is to thank Allah every single day! Performing prayers is a great blessing. Salat is a beauty. Salat is a relief. Salat is giving thanks, it is an expression of love.

Allah is never weary of giving you blessings. And you should never be weary of giving your thanks to Allah. Allah is never weary of loving you, so you should never be weary of loving Allah. That is a blessing. How beautiful this is. How can one be weary of his/her loved One.

You see the blessings of Allah every single day. Remembrance of Allah every single day, thanking Allah every single day would bring contentment to the heart. That is a demonstration of love. As you express your thanks, you pour out your feelings and feel relieved.

On prostration you ignore your pride completely. You prostrate to Almighty Allah. That has nothing to do with sports, nothing to do with gymnastics. You show your humility there. You express your thanks.

Prayer(salat) is a demonstration of joy, a way of thanking. Invoking the name of Allah is a way of thanking. Eating dinner with Muslims is a way of thanking, it is a beauty. We are having fun that is a beauty as well.

A Christian, a Jew is also obliged to perform prayers.

Our people longed for such a government for years. We have a President and a Prime Minister both of whom perform their prayers. That is a great blessing and a great beauty.

Ocalan should repent and ask Allah for forgiveness and submit himself to Allah. He should read the Qur'an and perform his prayers and prepare for the Hereafter. He should ask for the Unity of Islam. These are the best things that he can do.

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.

A Muslim would wake up for the morning prayers feeling in rejoice.

Our brothers should wake up happily for their prayers. How nice it is that when we wake up we see a bright and clear world. One might wake up paralyzed in the morning. One might wake up and see that he is physically disabled with his face disfigured. Or he might wake up and see that he is in Hell. How nice it is that Allah wakes us up nicely, feeling delighted.

The prayers (salat) should be performed immaculately just like it is described in the Qur'an with great sincerity. There is nothing complex. You perform your prayers joyfully, lovingly and peacefully. Trying to complicate the prayers is a satanic behavior. Satan attempts to turn it into something complicated so that people abandon their prayers.

There is goodness in the morning prayers. It brings health and abundance. The morning should be greeted awake with prayers.

Saying; "Praise be to Allah," saying "How beautiful Allah created," in the malls, in the streets, in cars, in buses would be a great service to people. People should hear Allah's Name everywhere. They should hear Allah's Name frequently. They will not forget, they would like that a lot and keep in mind. That is because some people are talking about their title deeds, some others are talking about their Money and others about their jobs, some others are busy gossiping, yet they see that someone there is talking about Allah with love. They would very much envy that, they would love that. They would take that person as an example and want to do that themselves as well.

To Whom do the images belong? They belong to Allah. To Whom does our love belong? To Allah. How can one forget about Allah? There is such an abnormality. Allah wants us to be thankful, and in return He says that He will increase His blessings upon Us. That is because everything belongs to Him.

Almighty Allah wants both gratefulness and to be loved.

Forgetting Allah would offend Allah. Even though Allah is the One Who creates fruits, the One Who creates all blessings, the One Who creates beauties, houses, cars, and then some people do not give Him the time of day - may Allah forbid- in any way. They do not say “Thanks be to Allah.” Then Allah takes everything back. Allah says; “I have given you that car. I have given you that house and now I am taking back your house.” Allah says; “I have given you your life and I am taking your life back. Either you will thank Me, or I will take all of them back.”

One should approach God by praising, by giving glory to God. We should increase our thanks to God. When that is increased, the blessings bestowed upon one would increase as well. How does that work? God does that without making it felt. The more you send your thanks to God; the more the blessings bestowed upon you increases. All increase from aspects you do not know of, from aspects you cannot even think of.

We should constantly praise God and be thankful. Giving glory to God is forgotten most of the time. Yet we should constantly be thankful to God. Alhamdulillah.

When one lives among Muslims, even if God gives very limited means, he feels happy. Even if a limited beauty is formed, that feels like a great beauty for Muslims. For instance, a Muslim has a small table but he feels happy with it but that is not the case with unbelievers, they would ask for better even if they have the best table setting. A Muslim on the other hand knows how to be thankful and he thanks God for his position.

If a person is patient, if he constantly thanks God, God would open the doors to him where he least expects. But because they constantly complain, blessings do not come upon them.

Seeing an exemplary person would have a positive impact on other people. That is why Almighty Allah says; "string along with the Companions." There is a verse in the Qur'an. Allah tells us to follow the Prophet (saas) and his companions. So we are to follow exemplary people.

When the Prophet Jesus Messiah (pbuh) comes, he will abide by the Qur'an and being the exemplary person, he will call the Christian world to Islam.

Almighty Allah does not say; "Invoke my name and then sit around and do nothing." He made the Unity of Islam a religious obligation for us. With the establishment of the Unity of Islam all kinds of discomfort, dissensions, all kinds of dislike among people towards each other will be done away with.
