Difficulties turn into blessings that make Muslims more beautiful and look even younger, that opens the minds of Muslims, increases their profundity and reinforces their foresight and perception.

A person who suffers through ordeals and who experiences hardships will become beautiful. He becomes even more beautiful as time passes and he becomes even younger. If the unbelievers live through the same things, they would collapse. But Muslims become even younger and even more beautiful with hardships. These have the exact opposite impact.

A Muslim should definitely live suffering through ordeals and hardships. For instance one writes books and makes research for God while the other goes around having fun. But Muslims suffer through hardships. Then you look and see that he is very radiant and has become so beautiful. The other one says, “I am living my life in leisure,” but you see that he has become dull and blunt and has lost his meaning. Such a person cannot have fun. He imagines that he is having fun but he cannot.

It is difficult to give a struggle against hypocrites. It is difficult to give a struggle against unbelief. It is not easy to serve Islam for God. Of course one would face hardship; that hardship beautifies Muslims. The difficulties he faced is the reason why our Prophet (saas) was so beautiful.

A Muslim is the one who lives by the religion of God even in hardship. Almighty God says; “ For truly with hardship comes ease; truly with hardship comes ease.” (Surat Al-Inshirah, 5-6) A Muslim would surely face such difficulties.

One says, “I have lived a very happy life, I have never faced any troubles all my life.” That is not a gain. First of all he won’t go to Heaven. In the Qur’an God says; “Or did you suppose that you would enter the Garden without facing the same as those who came before you?” (Surat Al-Baqara, 214) A Muslim should strive on the path of God, face difficulties and make an effort against unbelief, against the hypocrites.

Bediuzzaman advanced religion, the truth of religion in Turkey and Turkey cleaned itself of radicalism. The beauty of today's Turkey belongs to these two individuals; first to Ataturk and second to Bediuzzaman. As a result of hidden knowledge, these two appear to be opposing each other. Not everyone can understand this. Their appearing as opposed to one another is the way of the hidden knowledge.

Everyone benefits from what is apparent in the Qur'an, but the parts concerning hidden knowledge, the deciphering of the Broken Letters are not known known to anyone. However right now, there are those who know about them, the experts of that Hidden Knowledge.

Almighty God conceals the Mahdi because people would persecute him if they knew. He conceals the Mahdi behind 70 veils. They keep saying, “This person cannot be the Mahdi (pbuh) because of this and that aspect.” They invent 70 different excuses. Almighty God conceals him with Hidden Knowledge: With the Secret Knowledge, with the knowledge of Unseen.

Eat, drink and travel; anyone can do that. There will be hardships, there will be illnesses, there will be difficulties, there will be troubles and scourges and you will love God deeply just the same against all odds. That is what Almighty God loves the most.

For every man of cause, the hypocrites are created inside his brain. You wouldn't know the body of a person outside. You are just responsible of knowing what you are shown. For instance when a child dies the child inside your brain dies. You wouldn't know about the child outside. That is the Knowledge of God. That is the Innate Knowledge, I mean that is the Secret Knowledge.

The more difficulties one encounters, the more favorable it becomes in the Sight of God for him. That's why being disabled or having illnesses becomes instrumental to attain great good deeds.

When one encounters a difficulty, he needs to appreciate it and make use of it well. Difficulties and illnesses are blessings for Muslims.

There is the joy of faith in difficulties and hardships. One needs to experience the joy and the beauty of them.

We should not look at incidents solely from a political aspect, we should consider tings from a faith related aspect as well. God is the only One Who rules over all deep states, all people and all incidents. We need to see the unseen aspects of incidents.

The tougher the test a person is put through, the higher quality that person would attain.

All incidents in Turkey take place in line with "Ilm al-Ladun" which is knowledge imparted by God through illumination.

The morality of Islam will also prevail through Ilm al-Ladun and there are many indications to this knowledge God imparts in the Qur'an.

No matter what happens, Muslims always stand strong. Allah is the One Who creates all scourges, all troubles. Those who do not suffer hardships would not know love.

Dhul-Qarnayn and Khidr have knowledge of the essence of things. This means, Dhul-Qarnayn possessed "ilm al-ladun" (secret knowledge).

Secret knowledge masters in the Mahdi (pbuh). People are superficial, yet the works of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) are based on profundity. That is why only his 313 students are strong enough to be with the Mahdi (pbuh).

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.

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

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.

People vote for those who do not humiliate them. They vote for those who hold them in esteem, who do not look down upon them, for those who do not have such an unruly expression on their faces, who do not insult those they hold dear. They vote for those who love their God, their religion, their faith. That is the secret behind it.
