It is definitely not wrong to listen to music in Ramadan. Some people are hurting themselves by making things unlawful which God made lawful.

Muslims are immaculately clean in Ramadan, and pay particular attention to their dental hygiene.

Fasting in Ramadan helps people realize their weakness, calms excessive feelings inside and helps thinking about God deeply as a lenient person.

It would be very nice to try and attend to all iftar invites without making any kind of discrimination in between religious sects and communities.

The shopkeepers in Taksim have all suffered a great deal. The government should make special arrangements and allocate a special aid for them. I mean the government should help all those with legitimate, legal income.

Criticisms are nice; criticisms increase one's quality and beauty. They help people in finding the truth.

I am against radical Islam. I maintain an understanding of Islam in the European sense, in the sense that the Companions of our Prophet (saas) lived in, in the sense that the residents of the Heaven live in. This world should be like Heaven; there is a mistake if it turns out to be Hell.

The anti-woman mindset, the mindset that tries to put women in order should go away. It is not anyone's duty to put women in order. Women are very prone to their honor, to their pride; they are very reasonable beings. They understand the Qur'an very well. Let them be, let them decide about their lives.

Muslims are a whole. God does not accept egoism. The verses of the Qur'an possess a tone that includes all Muslims. For instance, God addresses Muslims of the whole world when He says "O you, who have faith!" He does not address solely Sunnis, Shias, Wahhabis, but all of them.

If our youth is not educated so as to become strong in faith, it means that colossal disasters are at the door for our future generations.

It is everyone's duty to adopt an attitude that protects the rights of innocent people. Religious or atheist, it wouldn't matter, all innocent people should be protected.

In Egypt, there are faithful Muslims on one side and again Muslims who have faith yet abstain from bigotry on the other side. Mahdi (pbuh) is the one who will unite the two sides. That is because the system of the Mahdi puts forth a modern, loving, peaceful, beautiful understanding of Islam. The system of the Mahdi represents an individual, a belief that puts forth a system that both sides would accept.

The concept of secularity exists in the complete sense in the Qur'an. Secularity as described in the Qur'an should be put into practice. Everyone should be utmost free in their beliefs. The essence is not to intervene in anyone's beliefs. One cannot interfere in the beliefs of an irreligious person, or a religious one, or a mason or a communist or anyone else for that matter. They all are first class citizens.

Women should be held in high esteem, they should be shown a special respect. They should be protected specifically. Women are great blessings. Women are the greatest bodily and spiritually combined blessings of this world. There is none above them.

If one acts very sincerely, loves God very deeply then he would find Mahdi (pbuh) anyway. They fail to find him because of their lovelessness, because of their lack of sincerity.

God is the One Who owns all sovereign powers. I mean God is the One ruling over Illuminati and God is the One ruling over freemasonry and God is the One ruling over Templars, over Rosicrucians and He is the One ruling over the deep world state.

One should not step outside the Qur'an. May God forbid if you say that the Qur'an is not sufficient, you would be waging a war against God. God says that the Qur'an is "enough" and you say that it is not. God says that He "explained everything in it" and you say "nothing is sufficiently explained in it." You'd thus be challenging the Book of God, may God forbid. If you dare to challenge the Book of Allah, you'd thus be challenging God, may God forbid.

Breaking up a fight is one thing, staging a coup is completely another.

Making coups is an atrocious act peculiar to Middle East and Asia. It is a crude behavior which only takes place in 3rd world countries.

The reason why we are successful is because we completely abide by the Qur'an, we do not fear anyone but God and we abandoned all ambitions about this world.

The members of Ikhwan are all very dear, valuable people; if they were to say "The Qur'an is enough" and approach in a loving and sincere manner, they would be saved from this situation.

Love is the greatest weapon. We need to avoid all statements of hatred. If approached with rage, people cannot be persuaded.

We should not look at incidents solely from a political aspect, we should consider tings from a faith related aspect as well. God is the only One Who rules over all deep states, all people and all incidents. We need to see the unseen aspects of incidents.

All the incidents that took place in Egypt have been defined in destiny in the slightest detail. All power is in the Hands of God. God is the One Who will reconcile hearts in Egypt as well.

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.
