Muslims will become vigorous and be refreshed as time passes, they will prosper. The way for the system of the Mahdi will be constantly be open; this is how it is preordained in destiny by God. There will be a lot of obstacles but they will not succeed to stop them. All power belongs to God.

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.

It might appear that one could mix unbelief with Islam, but the fact is that they do not go together. When unbelief is mixed with anything else it creates a poison; it brings about inauspiciousness. God would quietly make such people collapse physically and spiritually.

Islam is all about love, compassion and mercy. However the system of the Mahdi would not come into existence without the system of the antichrist (dajjal). Cruelty will come first, then compassion will follow; cold-heartedness will come first, then compassion will follow; first there will be lack of love, then love will come. Almighty God creates all these for people in order for them to appreciate these blessings.

According to the references in the hadiths, ISIS (Islamic State in Iraq and Syria) will enter the service of the system of the Mahdi. They will put aside this current mentality of theirs. There will be no more bloodshed. There will be no further violence.

The PKK terror organization is a great trouble for the whole region. The people there are not able to live in peace right now in the Southeast, they are living under the control of the mafia. How could one live comfortably under the control of the mafia? How could one live comfortably under the command of a gang? That will only be cleaned up with the system of the Mahdi.

Women are being oppressed everywhere in the world and people are merely watching this oppression. With the system of the Mahdi this scourge will be removed. Mahdi (pbuh) will annihilate this scourge. The system in which women are held in high esteem, in which women enjoy utmost freedom, is the system of the Mahdi.

People are suffering for no reason. If they accept the notion of Islamic Union, if they accept the system of the Mahdi, the world would turn into a veritable heaven. God gives them instead fearsome anguish for resisting.

The system of the Mahdi is not kept on the agenda. The descent of Jesus Messiah is not kept on the agenda. They are developing plans against the plan of God. If you attempt to develop plans against God's, God would tear yours to shreds. There can be no plans other than God's.

The system of the Mahdi progresses in front of the eyes of the whole world and it cannot be stopped. This is the course of destiny.

Time is an amazing cover. Almighty God concealed the system of the Mahdi with time like a veil; He made the events extend over a period of time and thus made it unnoticed because of their slow progression.

Islamophobia is formed because of radicalism. That is the doing of bigots. Without the system of the Mahdi, bigots would have erased Islam from the face of this world. The system of the Mahdi is the reason why Islam remained in this world. The system of the Mahdi is the reason why they fail to disintegrate Turkey. Or else, they were planning to raze Turkey to the ground.

Unity can clearly be attained with the spirit of the system of the Mahdi. Everyone says; "let us be in unity." But no one would ever take such wishes seriously. Racism, sectarianism, regionalism, even district based discrimination is widespread. Since our Prophet (saas) is very well aware of this trouble on his ummah, he specifically charges his Mahdi with that task.

Because a religion that ascribes partners to God –may God forbid- has infested the whole world, Islam that is purely based on the Qur'an is lived by in only a few places. What is dominating [the world today] is the religion that ascribes partners to God.

Islam means the most beautiful of everything. It means the highest quality; it means the rightest of everything. This is the meaning of Islam. Islam is the most perfect, most reasonable, rightest and the best of everything.

Satan shouldn’t be allowed to deceive people by presenting salat and other religious services as difficult, Millions of people keep aloof from religion just because taking ablution and performing prayers are presented as if they are very difficult to do.

Islam is an amazingly beautiful system. If the youth could learn about it properly, there would be not one person left in Turkey that wouldn't embrace Islam. Yet they fail to understand; they imagine that hanging people, chopping up them is acceptable in religion, that their freedoms will be seized, that they will not have fun, that there will be no place for music and art in their lives. Actually these are all lawful blessings. Religion is being wrongfully explained. There is no such system. The system of the idolaters brought all those in. There is no such system in Islam.

A Muslim would pick the side of Islam if he/she is forced to pick sides in between irreligion and Islam. A Muslim cannot be impartial; he would then be staved off.

The vast majority of the Turkish people are Ataturkist, intellectual people who have progressive thoughts, who like freedoms, who understand Islam as it was in the time of the Companions, people who advocate modern Islam. All our youth are modern. Consequently it would not be possible to enforce bigoted, fanatical understanding of Islam in Turkey.

They have invented a new religion from made-up hadiths and they are calling it Islam. In fact the religion Qur’an preaches us is called Islam. A religion that consists of made-up hadiths cannot be called Islam. That is a polytheistic religion.

Muslims are advocating the strongest idea in the world right now and they are in their most determined period. Fascism, communism, capitalism, all such ideologies have collapsed. Only the way of Islam is open right now.

The life of the antichrist would last a maximum of 40 years, it cannot be any longer. But Islam remained standing for 1,400 years. Many antichrist movements have passed by ever since the time of our Prophet (saas), they have all remained in history. They have been many different antichrist movements and all have been perished. The PKK is also a movement of the system of the antichrist and it will be perished.

There is no such thing as a "moderate Muslim." Muslims are those who abide by the Qur'an. Those who abide by the Qur'an are Muslims, if they don't, they don't. There are two different types of Muslims; those who abide by the Qur'an and those who don't. There is no such thing as a moderate Muslim.

It is an art to put the Qur’an into practice. A wise, reasonable person would understand the Qur’an very well and very nicely put it into practice in his life. For instance, he’d know how to be humble, how to erase the feeling of haughtiness, how love is experienced.

Unbelievers are only your friends when they have an interest in being so. They turn into your enemies when their interest in you ends but that is not the case in Islam. In Islam there is patience, there is compassion.
