President Erdoğan is not against Jewish people; on the contrary, he has always approached Jews with love and compassion. He made sure that synagogues in Turkey were repaired and opened for prayer.

Synagogues and churches are places of worship entrusted to Muslims according to the Qur’an. A Muslim could never attack a place of worship.

The whole world is a masjid (place of worship). Having a clean place is sufficient to pray.

In most shopping malls [in the Muslim world], mosques are in the basements; they are small and not very well-kept. On the contrary, they should be spacious and very clean.

Attacking believers who worship in church is - not - a part of the Islam revealed in the Qur’an. That is an atrocious tyranny and cruelty.

Safety precautions must be taken against attacks to synagogues and Jewish cemeteries in America and Europe. These attacks should not become common.

Attacking places of worships is one of the most evil methods of the dajjal [antichrist]. It is savagery to attack mosques, churches and synagogues.

Homosexuality is an obscenity banned by God. Imposing something people loathe because of their faith is a great persecution. Consequently, forcing priests to wed homosexuals in churches is a cruelty which is against the faith of priests.

Churches are closing one by one. Hence Muslims must watch over Christians. According to the Qur'an, churches and synagogues are entrusted to Muslims.

Muslims must be happy with an alliance with Christians and that Christians are religious people. It's disturbing that churches are closing.

It's so fine that there are devout Orthodox, Jews and Muslims in Russia. It would be so fine to see synagogues and churches to be full of devout people.

Houses of Muslims are in a way places of worship and their houses are always kept clean. “Purify My House for those who circle it and those who are staying [there] for worship and those who bow and prostrate [in prayer].” Qur’an, 2:125

It is great that Mike Pence says the US will be a nation under God and that he brings the American dream to the agenda. The new US government can start by reopening the closed churches. The closing of synagogues and churches shouldn't be considered normal. Reopening places of worship will usher in blessings.

We want large praying rooms everywhere, in schools, hospitals, shopping malls. Especially rooms for ladies should be very well kept. Ladies should be given separate, spacious, nice places to pray and take ablution, so that they will have no difficulty in crammed places.

Churches are the houses of God, synagogues are the houses of God and so are the mosques. Everyone can worship wherever they like. God rendered the whole world a place of worship for us.

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.

A believer could never understand the spirit of a hypocrite or an unbeliever. It is a way of life that believers do not know and would never understand.

A believer who lives according to the moral values of the Qur’an is responsible to protect others like his own children. This is the system of guardianship in Islam.

A believer who strictly adheres to the Qur’an would never be unhappy or withdrawn.

A calming tone is always right. One needs to correct every provocative sentence, invite people to mildness and be moderate.

A careful person can detect malevolent people from their negative energy. When hypocrites walk into a place, their negativity is sensed immediately.

A compassionate person does not have prejudice or show bias against people. Being prejudiced is ignorance and vulgarity.

A cultivated person of high quality would never associate himself with prejudice.

A good joke gives joy to the person at which the joke is directed.

A good person is understood from his words, balanced state of mind, courtesy, understanding of compassion, sharpness of mind, peaceful face and wit.
