A mentality that oppresses women would never develop and prosper. God would open the path of a country in which women enjoy freedom. It would be the end of a country if women are oppressed in that country.

A country in which women lack quality, could never attain quality and success. Such a country can never attain quality, can never be modern and European. If women in a country are not enlightened, free, happy and well-groomed, if they are not free in their joy, in their laughter, in sports, in their eating, etc., such a country can never be an enlightened country. Such a country would be dark and every country that becomes overcast would definitely be ruined. May God forbid.

Any state lacking quality would collapse. Any state that oppresses women would be ruined. That is because half of all people are women. There will be no relief or comfort if women are oppressed there. God takes revenge.

Women should be free to wear what they like and live at ease all around the world. Any country that doesn't provide that freedom has been ruined. The countries in which women enjoy freedom become the most modern, most peaceful and most content countries of the world. Anything other than that is not possible. Let those wearing chadors wear it as they like, let those wearing veils wear it as they like, everyone should be free. Ladies should not be oppressed.

If we become Europeans, be enlightened and loving, if we hold women in high esteem, if it is seen that women are free in our country, if we attach importance to the arts, sciences, aesthetics, we would attain the highest quality. Anything other than that would cause our ruin.

A country in which women are not modern can never be modern. A country in which women are not comfortable and free can never be free. No one would ever laugh in a country in which women do not laugh. If women are not happy in a country, no one else can ever be happy.

The most reasonable, the most perfect arrangement that is needed for people to live happily in a community is defined in the Qur'an.

Women are flower- like beings. What is the sense in causing them pain and suffering? Let them live beautifully in this world. Only then both Europe and the US would open their doors wide to Turkey and no longer support these villains of the PKK.

There is no difficulty in Islam: God wants it to be convenient as He emphasizes that in verses multiple times, and says that the Prophet Abraham’s (as) religion is easy. In another verse He says, “God desires ease for you; He does not desire difficulty for you.” (2/185) Islam is like a festival; it is a religion of joy. Things like hanging people, cutting them up, beating people, blasphemy, making women’s lives miserable do not exist in it. Islam considers women to be flowers.

Let there be freedom, let there be democracy. Let everyone strive for that with all their might. That is because wisdom, the arts and science develops in a free environment. Under the pressure of a state, wisdom will be atrophied. People would not have power of understanding. There would be no artists, no scientists. Industry atrophies, people lose their eagerness to work.

Beauty, happiness, love and kindness of believers infuriate the supporters of satan. They get very jealous to see those blessings.

A believer only weeps out of joy and happiness. He would never cry out of grief.

Let the joy, beauty, excitement of faith spread all over. We want the happiness, beauty of heaven. We do not want tears. Believers should not cry and should always be happy. There is an attempt to hurt believers with grief.

Religion is joy, happiness and celebration. Islam is beauty.

The irreligious do not promote freedom. Islam promotes freedom. People had no liberties in the era of the Pharaoh and Nimrod, but they were fully at liberty in the time of the Messenger of God (pbuh). Both Jews and Christians were at liberty. Furthermore, they were treated with love, compassion and utmost care. They were under protection in every respect. However, the Pharaoh tyrannized over his people.

Islam promotes liberties to the utmost. There are only things that are lawful and unlawful. People are completely free within the boundaries of lawful and unlawful. In other words, social pressure has no place in Islam.

The world is full of numerous beauties, but one may get no joy from them without love for God. True happiness comes by knowing that they are gifts from God.

Loveless people lose everything they have, including their physical and spiritual beauty and happiness.

The rules of a society not abiding by the morality of the Qur'an are suffocating. Islam grants the greatest freedom to human beings.

Muslims are free when they fully abide by the Qur'an. Islam abolishes the thousands of prohibitions imposed by systems other than the Islam.

Reconciliation with a country, making peace, is a requisite of the morality of Islam. Reconciliation becomes instrumental for peace and bliss.

Secularism, democracy and freedom are the principles of Islam.

We need to be the most modern country in Europe. Ankara should be even better than Paris. Istanbul should be far more high quality than London. It should have incomparable quality. There should be decent, kind, companionable people of peace everywhere. Everyone, people from all walks of life, people from every political party should feel love for one another in coffeehouses and streets.

Had some bigots been given free reign, neither listening to music, nor sculptures, nor paintings, or freedom for ladies putting on make-up and going out would be left. These people are quite bloodthirsty. That is why Turkey should swiftly go towards a modern, religious line.

Israel is an intelligent, wise state in the region. It is an anti-communist state that sides with God. Turkey should be very good friends with Israel in any case.
