A person who does not resist what God inspires in his heart, in his conscience, is a sincere person.

A sincere person never lives for oneself. This is the measurement of sincerity.

A truly sincere person has a soul. A person who has a soul is created with faith in heart; that person would find religion no matter what.

An unpredictable person is the most dangerous being in the world. One who has sincere faith in God and who respectfully fears God is a trustworthy person.

Assuming that Islam kills all the good aspects of life like arts and science, people distance themselves from religion. However Islam is joy and life itself. People say they will live by religion when they grow old because they believe Islam is a system that will depress them. But Islam removes all the rules that oppress people.

Being sincere, just, reasonable, persuadable and determinedly loyal are my best qualities.

Belivers read the Qur’an and practice what they sincerely understand. The Qur’an is open and easy to understand. Abiding by the Qur’an is enough.

Bigots preach a religion that is impossible to live by as if it is Islam, but they don’t practice it as they preach either. In fact, Islam in the Qur’an is very easy to live by.

Deep thinking is only possible with sincerity. It is not possible for a sincere person to remain superficial.

Every believer is born with the morality of the Qur’an. In the Hereafter, people will be asked from the Qur’an and whether they are sincere or not.

God gives prosperity, abundance and beauty to those who are sincere in His Way.

God gives youth and health to those who live their lives for the good pleasure of God.

God inspires people to the truth all the time. Following that inspiration is called sincerity.

How nice it is that God exists. How nice it is that He has Infinite Wisdom. How nice it is that God wants our sincerity and shows us the easiest way for salvation.

Islam is very easy to live by as it is based on sincerity and love. What every believer reads and understands from the Qur’an is sufficient.

God wants ease for people, not a painful life. People only torment themselves.

Some circles misrepresented Islam as if it were introverted, joyless and far removed from freedoms. It is not possible to live by the religion they portray. Many people who appear to be conservative do not even perform their prayers. Because they have presented prayers as if it were an intricate, complex form of worship that is impossible to perform. The religion God described in the Qur’an is easy.

Taking ablution and performing prayers is very easy according to the Qur’an. Complicating prayers and ablution is a plot devised by the satan to keep people away from performing prayers. All sects add arbitrary, made-up sunnah and obligatory conditions to perform prayers, on their own. They all contradict with one another even about lawful and unlawful acts. Lawful and unlawful acts according to Islam are defined solely by the Qur’an. There is no such thing as performing prayers and taking ablution differently according to each sect. How to take ablution and perform prayers are defined in the Qur’an and they both are easy to perform.

Satan wants to complicate religion. In fact God deemed religion easy. In the Qur’an, God says : “God desires ease for you; He does not desire difficulty for you.” (Surat al-Baqara, 185) “We will ease you to the Easy Way.” (Surat al-A’la, 8) “He (God) has selected you and not placed any constraint upon you in the religion — the religion of your forefather Ibrahim.” (Surat al-Hajj, 78)

Having faith is not difficult. Some people complicate everything for themselves. God wants easiness for people. Religion is easy, having faith is easy. Complicating things is a form of torment people inflict on themselves.

In the subconscious of some people, there is a flawed logic which states that one should endure pain for religion, that people should not laugh, should not have fun and that otherwise it would not be possible to go to Heaven. According to this mentality, the flawed mindset claiming that ‘religion should be inextricably difficult for people to advance well in religion,’ prevails among them. In fact, Islam always brings the freedom of Heaven. All true religions, including the religion the Prophet Abraham brought, the one the Prophet Solomon brought and the religion our Prophet (saas) brought bring the spirit, the beauty, the freedom, the quality and the joy of Heaven. The hypocritical systems on the other hand bring the dilemma of hell, the fruitlessness and the torment of hell. With the Qur’an, Our Prophet (saas) brought utmost freedom and preached this to people. God deemed the freedoms people want in their hearts lawful with the Qur’an. He removed all the pressures on people. Commands bringing freedoms came one after the other with the Qur’an. God removed the heavy chains on people. As the freedoms enjoyed by the believers increased, the hypocrites got jealous and imagined that they had thus attained an advantage in front of the public. They tried to influence people by saying ‘we are more conservative, they are (the prophets and the companions) are living by religion easier and are changing our religion.” All the hypocrites talk about is their criticisms about how the Prophet lived religion. They state that they do not trust the Prophet in every speech they make. They regard every command about the freedoms God revealed to our Prophet with suspicion. Those hypocrites with that treacherous and ignoble mentality became stronger after our Prophet (saas) passed away and created the foundation of the Orthodox Islamic understanding. They added their own horrifying interpretations that humiliate women and claim that women are satanic and should be beaten as if they were in Islam. Muslims that came afterwards claimed that false, fabricated interpretations unknowingly as if they were the commands of God. We will insha’Allah correct this error that reached today from those days by preaching the true Islam as explained in the Qur’an.

They preach religion as if it is comprised of inextricable rituals and religiousness as if it is very difficult. Religion is sincerity. You need to be wholeheartedly sincere and patient in the face of time. When one attains sincerity, everything does not change all of a sudden with lightning flashes. But in time one would see that positive changes take place all the time.

Islam is an easy religion, easy to practice. It only takes sincerity and earnestness.

Most people stay away from performing prayers because bigots portray it like it is a difficult practice. On the contrary, it is very easy and brings happiness. Turning prayer/ablution into difficult practices, is satan’s plot. Allah explains ablution in one verse in Qur’an. But some people write 300-page books explaining it.

A believer considers serving Islam as a blessing but hypocrites don’t want to serve Islam. They follow their own evil religious law. Living alone, being stingy and feckless, leading an aimless, vain life, any act of moral turpitude and lying are all acceptable in the evil religious understanding of hypocrites.
