Sultan Mehmet, the Conqueror was waiting for the Mahdi (pbuh) as well. Sultan Suleiman, the Magnificent waited for the Mahdi, they all waited. They have decorated Istanbul with mosques, with palaces just because the Mahdi (pbuh) will be coming. They have decorated Istanbul, our forefathers have prepared Istanbul for the Mahdi (pbuh).

Who will find the Arc of Covenant? Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). Who will bring it and place it in front of the masjid of the Prophet Solomon (pbuh)? It is again the Mahdi (pbuh). To whom will the holy relics be entrusted? They will be entrusted to the Mahdi (pbuh). To whom the Qur'an refers to? The Qur'an refers to the Mahdi (pbuh).

Those ignorant men and women who are unaware of the knowledge of marvels will, according to their own mindset, adopt an attitude against Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). After a while, when that curtain is removed from their eyes, when Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) explains the wisdom of that knowledge, those ignorant people will be shocked. It is not possible for the antichrist to stand against that knowledge of marvels, that is the ilm al-ladun [Hidden-Innate Knowledge].

Antichrist cannot find a way against the Ilm al-Ladun [Hidden-Innate Knowledge]. That is to say the hidden knowledge would melt it down, just like salt melting in water. That is because the antichrist gives a struggle with superficial knowledge so it cannot stand against Hidden Knowledge. Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) is given the Hidden Knowledge. The superficial knowledge of the antichrist will be annihilated with the Hidden Knowledge of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). That is why Hazrat Mahdi opens all the doors and windows of the dajjal (antichrist) and enters its secret bastions. Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) enters even those outlets that are believed to be out of bounds.

Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) is the Sultan of the Hidden Knowledge in the End Times. Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will be successful with the Hidden Knowledge.

Hazrat Mahdi awaited in the End Times will execute the Ilm Al-Ladun (Hidden Knowledge) that no one in the End Times puts into practice. That is why many people will be against Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). Just like the Prophet Moses (pbuh) objecting Hazrat Khidr (pbuh) many people will say; "His attitudes are against Islam," and object him unknowingly.

Istanbul is entrusted to us insha'Allah. It is entrusted to Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) and his students. Since we are the students of the Mahdi (pbuh) Istanbul is entrusted to us insha'Allah. Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) would not leave us insha'Allah and we would not leave Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh).

Istanbul is the place in which the system of the Mahdi gives an intellectual struggle against Darwinism and materialism. Istanbul is the capital of culture. This is the place in which cultures are giving an intellectual struggle.

Istanbul is a gift given to Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). Because Istanbul is entrusted to the Mahdi (pbuh) no one can lay hands on it.

There is a code in the Qur'an. There is a sign in it. All verses of related with conquests refer to the times of Mahdi (pbuh). All the statements about the prevail of Islam refer to the times of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). And they exactly give the same date. That is really very surprising.

Istanbul has been conquered specifically for Mahdi, by Almighty God and given to the Ottomans. That is the sole purpose of it. God created the destiny in that way for the appearance of Mahdi. Istanbul has been adorned like a bride for the coming of the Mahdi.

There will not be another earthquake in Istanbul until Hijri 1506, insha'Allah. After Hijri 1506 it will be like hell until Hijri 1545 anyway. There will be earthquakes, disasters, troubles, civil wars, coups. There will be a fascist uprising and a communist uprising and that will cover the whole world. There will be a blood bath.

There is a negative force that is called satan but it's effect is weak. The important thing is that if we use our good conscience, if we use our mind, Allah constantly reveals in our conscience. For instance when we do something, if it is wrong, it comes to us as knowledge; it is revealed to us. It is inspired in our hearts. If we resist that knowledge, we would be acting conscienceless. If we do not resist it and act on it, we would be acting in compliance with our good conscience.

The Last Day will be progressing very rapidly. That is because there will be a collision to the Earth. A massive meteor will pierce through the world. It is stated that the meteor colliding with the Earth will pierce through the Earth, take a spin and then hit the Earth once more. As a result of this, the direction of the world's rotation will change. It will start to rotate the other way. Yet this is something that will happen within hours. It would maximum take hours. The Last Day will break very fast.

At the time of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) all the world will run towards Islam. Christians and Jews will be content with his justice as well. Everyone will live by their religion freely, there will be peace and abundance, wars will come to an end, weapons will be done away with, blood will not be shed, there will be no terror, no anarchy. A welfare, beauty, gayety will enfold the whole world. Love will embrace the whole world. There will be no place left without love.

Never leaving love by no manner of means is a characteristic of Paradise. That is because love is never left aside in the Paradise. In paradise love will never be left aside for all eternity. That is the greatest blessing. That is the greatest beauty. Otherwise Paradise will not have a meaning without love. Because we love Allah, we will love everything in the Paradise.

We need to bring love into the foreground. Loving all religious communities, loving our brothers.. Responding the loveless with love and then again responding the loveless with love again and again [is what needs to be done]

Religion is metaphysical. We are living side by side with the angels. Angels are here at the moment. There are angels on both our sides. There are djinns here at the moment. This world is a metaphysical place.

Muslim is a being whose metaphysical aspect is predominant. They are one within the other with metaphysics. They believe in angels, they believe in djinns, they believe in the coming of the Mahdi (pbuh), they believe in the appearance of the dajjal (antichrist), they believe in the appearance of the smoke, they believe in the appearance of the dabbat al-ardh, they believe in the appearance of yajuj and majuj.

Almighty Allah will give the Turkish soldiers, Turkish policemen the power to defeat the armies of the dajjal (antichrist). That is because we are in the End Times, we are in the times of the Mahdi. They are on the side of Allah and they are the army of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). Those on the side of Allah are undefeatable.

Without Ilm Al-Ladun (Hidden Knowledge) it is not possible to put forth a struggle and defeat the antichrist in the End Times. This knowledge of marvels, this Hidden Knowledge should be put in execution.

A Muslim with sincere faith in Allah would not enter Hell. He/ She will watch the Hell, see it, hear it, receive the news of it but will not enter it. Such a person will go to that land and see it but will not suffer pain.

Allah does not wrong anyone. Muslims would in no way go to Hell. But a Muslim should fear Hell and refrain from the punishment of Hell. But I repeat; a Muslim would never and on no account go to Hell.

The addresses should be beautiful. Our brothers and sisters should avoid using slang. They should not speak unseemly words. Let them say beautiful words. Especially while addressing ladies slang language should never be used. That would be very atrocious and would not befit good morals and etiquette. Ladies are addressed in the kindest manner.

One should pray every single day. It is very pleasing to pray Almighty Allah. It gives joy, praying is a comfort for a Muslim. That is one of the greatest blessings.
