God makes people to think about Himself with the incidents He created. It is very important to think, in the Qur'an God encourages people to think.

Praying without clinging on to necessary means would not be acceptable. If you are saying that you will perform your prayers, yet go and sit in a corner, even if you say “My Lord let me perform my prayers,” you would simply be sitting there doing nothing. You should do your actual praying by going and performing your prayers. The determination and the effort you make would be your actual praying.

The art of the Creator is one of the most pleasant blessings for man. To see a thing of beauty, to reflect upon that, to understand that blessing, is one of those blessings that give utmost joy to a person.

May God awaken our attention. May God grant us the blessing of concentrating on Him and directing our love solely to Him. May God strengthen our mind and make us perceive the proofs of God with our mind; may He strengthen our faith in a conscientious and sincere manner. Weakness in faith is very dangerous, may God forbid.

You have to take necessary measures. We do not expose ourselves to direct sunlight. We find a shelter. You will also find a shelter to avoid sunlight. One does not say, “The Sun burned me.” You will go and drink water, insha’Allah.

Thinking and the information that comes with thinking is the information that comes to us through Allah's inspiration.

OF COURSE WE MUST BE ABLE TO THINK DEEPLY. THE QUR’AN ALWAYS ENCOURAGES US TO THINK PROFOUNDLY. People always ask for ready information. They want the evidence about the existence of Allah to be obvious in the Qur’an. They want the miracles of the Qur’an to be out in the open so that they would be forced to have faith in Allah. Well this would not be the case.

If one thinks about Heaven superficially, his brain could only perceive it superficially and a superficial belief could be formed. But if one concentrates well and, comes to have faith nicely and asks for that information from God insistently, Heaven and the Hereafter will become clear in his mind.

Belief in angels, belief in destiny; these should be thought about one by one, pondered upon and settled in one's mind as perfect belief. I mean, a great majority of the public has such beliefs, but they remain as superficial information in their minds; however, settled knowledge could only be formed in devout Muslims. One needs to turn that into settled knowledge.

Information does not flow to the brain out of the blue. The brain should be disciplined; it should be educated. It is not possible to do by sitting back, one needs to work for it. Thinking is an act of worship, just like prayers.

In places where there is anarchy and terror, some people may have weak faith. This has to be corrected with contemplation and deep understanding of faith.

One doesn't need very detailed technical knowledge to constantly think about and remember God.

Thinking a lot and taking on different responsibilities will help both mind and personal development.

While the magma is boiling underneath our feet, while the comets pass close by, most people live oblivious to this, occupied with mundane daily matters instead.

Deep thinking is critical in Islam. It is important to recite God’s names by knowing and thinking about their meanings.

Science does not advance in the traditionalist orthodox system because it is based on superstitions and anti-intellectualism. The Qur’an, on the other hand, commands us to think.

Some people assume that what is meant by standing in awe during prayers is to loose one's self. In fact standing in awe is sincerity. It is a sincere connection with God, it is feeling love for God with an open conscience. That is what standing in awe means.

A person falls ill from his arm and he constantly goes to medicine. But why do you not also pray for it? Make your prayers, medicine is just a vehicle, what does it have to do with medicine? Know that God is the One Who created medicine, be aware that medicine is only used as a prayer and apart from that simply pray for the cure.

Praying is being in a constant connection with God. God approves prayers, God loves prayers. That is explicitly stated in the Qur'an. That is because it forges a connection with Him. Christians are very well aware of this secret and they enjoy the taste of it. So God accepts their prayers. That is a very crucial matter.

Time is more precious than gold, it is far more important. One should use time with all his might. Instead of watching TV series for 4 hours, for 5 hours, increase your general culture, increase your knowledge, help people, clean your surroundings, make yourself high quality. Attach importance to aesthetics, science and arts, give importance to them.

I am a 33rd degree Freemason. I now have the right to enter the freemasonic lodges. I do have the right to enter the lodges in the States and in Europe, I have the right to enter the lodges all around. And I have the right to enter these lodges as the Grand Master. I have to right to give conferences and have talks as the Grand Master. I wouldn't be able to enter these lodges without being a Freemason, I wouldn't have the means to communicate religion under their roof if I were not a Freemason.

The most beautiful solution against terror and anarchy is Islam as the Companions of our Prophet lived. This is the system that Christianity would be able live in comfort, this is the system that Judaism would be able to live in comfort.

The Bediuzzaman says; "the East will be strengthened only with religion." No country has ever gained power through philosophy. That has always been attained with religion. The same is valid with Christians as well; in Europe they have always gained strength with religion. Also the Jews; they have always gained strength with religion. The only reason for the strength of Jews in this world is the Torah.

The miracles of our Prophet (saas) that have been realized in the End Times are being concealed. If the headlines of a well-recognized newspaper, a newspaper in Europe, the Guardian for instance were to read; "How did the Prophet Mohammad (saas) foretell the comet with two horns?" even with that millions billions of people would start to believe.

If Ocalan wants to do good, he should support the Unity of Islam with open statements and repent for his sins. He should pray for the unity and togetherness of the Turkish Nation. He should pray for this dissension to be removed from our people.
