If there is anything wrong we have done, they can warn us giving references from the Qur’an. We are not doing any act that is deemed unlawful in the Qur’an and we would never do. Since those who criticize us are also aware of this fact, they are unable to say that this is unlawful according to the Qur’an, they merely say this is unlawful in my opinion. We abide by the Qur’an not anyone’s own convictions. We would heed the advice the moment we are warned with the verses of the Qur’an. We are positive people. We accept and embrace what is right the moment we see it. But they fail to bring us any evidence from the Qur’an.

Muslims criticize themselves every single day. Not wasting time, searching for the act that would bring them the good pleasure of God the most and for the right course of action, avoiding wastage, say the most appropriate things… these are subjects Muslims should always think about.

I live my life the way I understand from the Qur’an. While making a criticism to a believer one should say ‘you are making a mistake according to “this” verse of the Qur’an.’ A criticism made without showing a verse from the Qur’an as evidence would have no meaning. When one says, ‘You are making a mistake according to ‘this’ verse,’ a believer would instantly heed that advice.

I live my life according to the Qur’an. If those who criticize me could show me verses from the Qur’an as evidence for their criticisms, I would succumb immediately.

If the British Deep State attempts to oppress any of our Muslim brothers, we would not just sit around and watch. We will shake the ground within the limits of the law.

It is a righteous demand to ask for perfection in judicial system as long as it in line with laws. Opposition brings democratic opulence.

It is not nice to object to everything. A bad temper stems from lack of love.

People think that they will lose the respect of others when they receive criticism. This is not true. It’s important to honestly accept criticism.

The strong voice of the opposition shows that democracy works perfectly well in Turkey.

Turkish people love President Erdoğan very much. As long as we stick together, no ploy set against Turkey would ever succeed.

Getting defensive in the face of constructive criticism is an unwise reflex. Constructive criticism helps one see details and improve oneself.

Opposition is necessary for progress and development. But it is important to be constructive and positive at all times.

There is no such thing as ‘the freedom to insult’ in any democratic country. Criticism and opinions must be expressed within the boundaries of respect.

We don't want any dissident voices to be silenced. An abundance of dissident voices is the beauty of democracy.

Turkey should act in unity. This period we are going through necessitates the government and opposition parties to act as one.

The most effective solution to a military coup is a political attitude embracing people from all segments of thought without excluding anyone.

Having a strong opposition shows that Turkey has democracy. Therefore our brothers should not be bothered with opposition.

The coup attempt was very favorable for our people. The spirit of unity, brotherhood and religiousness became stronger.

Just like the PKK that gives an ideological education, we need to give an ideological education to Turkish soldiers, police officers and Turkish youth. "How can we attain national unity and integrity? What is the danger of PKK? What are the characteristics of communist organizations? How can communism get foothold? Why is the philosophy behind communism tainted and wrong? Why is Darwinism invalid?" All these matters should be taught in schools. Or else, may God forbid, there will be nothing left remaining from Turkey.

There should be courses on national conscience in our curriculum. Lessons on the communist threat, the threat of partitioning Turkey, the dangers of Darwinism and materialism, on how to resist and respond to these ideologies should be taught by experienced teachers for at least three hours a week.

No one should pick on one another in such a period. Everyone should approach each other with love. National unity is very important. Pushing one another around instead of protecting and watching over one another would be a very abnormal behavior; it would be unlawful.

Turkey is on a very important turning point; that is why supporting, watching over and protecting patriotic youth is very crucial. It is very important to keep them and their eagerness fit and in shape.

Our Kurdish brothers and sisters, our Laz brothers and sisters, all of us have united under the name of Turkishness. That is the name for this unity. The name of unity is Turkishness. Or else, this is not in the sense genetic superiority, not in the sense of genetic code.

There is beauty in unity and solidarity; there is power in these. That is why God tells us to be in unity and solidarity.

Being sincere is our sole responsibility. It is as if we are sailing on a boat. No matter what we do on that boat, the boat would sail. Destiny doesn’t change, it goes by as God preordained.
