A hateful character is very common amongst young people. They hate Russia, Israel, Greece, Iran; they hate rival political parties, rival football clubs, they even hate the cities they don't live in. They harbor incredible amounts of hatred in them. Such societies naturally become easy targets: That’s why it is crucial to end this hateful character. It should be a top priority.

For the sake of our country, for the sake of our national security and national integrity, the policy of hatred should end. It is important to stem the tide of bigotry, as its main policy is hatred towards everything.

In Islam, it is wrong to be averse to Jews. Surely, one can feel resentment towards those individuals who have committed sins or those who have oppressed people. In that case, those individuals should be held accountable through the legal system. But blaming the entire Israeli people, that is forbidden. It is not Islamic.

Anger, hatred, lack of love and compassion, selfishness, cruelty; these feelings blacken the eyes, blacken the words spoken. Once ensnared by such feelings, that person will lose the ability to talk sensibly. Observe carefully the language of those that refuse love. They just can’t make sensible sentences.

When love touches the eyes, eyes will become more beautiful and begin to look more deeply. When love touches the tongue, every sentence uttered will be more articulate and wise. When it touches the vocal cords, the voice will sound more pleasant. When it lands on the skin, the skin will find love and begin to glow. In other words, love will beautify a person in every single way.

If you invite love, it will come at that instant and is very easy to attain. As soon as it arrives, it settles in the heart, in the brain. And love loves humans because it loves God. When it finds its way to the brain, brain will find relief. When it reaches the heart, heart will burst with joy. Love broadens the horizons.

As soon as one ushers in love, it will come. It’s waiting right outside the door. Just say “love, come to me," and it will come instantly to fill your heart. It is ready to serve your soul. Because it’s the way God created it. But people keep it waiting at the door and don't let it in. Instead, they usher in animosity, hostility, coldness, skepticism, cruelty, sarcasm, tactlessness and rudeness and keep love waiting at their door.

Love is presented as a luxury, something that is not actually necessary in this life. This is what Satan has preached for centuries. As a result, people today wrongly believe that love is very difficult to attain. Actually it is ingrained in us. Love is a need just like food.

Some men say: ‘I don't have love or respect; but I do have money’. What a horrible thing to offer a woman, what a nightmare. They lead such miserable lives. What does it matter if they live in a palace? For such a person, every single day would bring fresh waves of pain. What good would palaces or luxury do without love, without respect?

If we become Europeans, be enlightened and loving, if we hold women in high esteem, if it is seen that women are free in our country, if we attach importance to the arts, sciences, aesthetics, we would attain the highest quality. Anything other than that would cause our ruin.

If you are hateful towards Israel, reject anything that is modern, live in filthy houses, if you are loveless and hateful towards Russians, Greeks, Iranians, Shias, Alawites, Wahhabis, if you keep dropping innuendos about everyone; then you would be falling in the clutches of satan. Don't you see the atrocious position you are in? These are all very wrong. Love is the only thing a Muslim knows, so you need to be full of love.

The government should protect and watch over the rights of women, freedom, democracy, music, arts and everything that is beautiful. The government should look out for quality and aesthetics and state that "these are the characteristics of the Turkish Nation."

Establishing a Ministry of Quality and Art is of the utmost importance; a product has no value if it has no artistic or high quality attributes. Both art and quality should be encouraged.

Love is in the spirit of people. Hatred, rage and quarrelsomeness are horrible feelings; they would ruin one, be the end of one. One would become sick, may God forbid. One's heart cannot bear it, one becomes distressed and strained. A lack of love is a poison for the body. The body would be refreshed with love.

Arts, entertainment, beauty and music are not forbidden in Islam. They ruined the Islamic world by taking all the beauties away from Muslims.

Ottoman-Turkish music is very beautiful and rich. The current stagnation points to a problem in arts and needs to be solved.

Let there be freedom, let there be democracy. Let everyone strive for that with all their might. That is because wisdom, the arts and science develops in a free environment. Under the pressure of a state, wisdom will be atrophied. People would not have power of understanding. There would be no artists, no scientists. Industry atrophies, people lose their eagerness to work.

They have misrepresented Islam as ugly and frightening. They have misrepresented it as a system of violence, as a hellish movement. They have misrepresented Muslims as killing machines, as fond of massacres, and thus caused people to take a great dislike to Islam. The fact of the matter is, however, that Islam means beauty, aesthetics, arts, reason, knowledge, culture, understanding, goodness and sincerity.

Modernity, looking for high-quality, putting arts and aesthetics in the forefront would render Turkey very strong. The mentality causing coups does not come about in countries that hold arts, freedoms, quality and women's rights in high esteem.

The Prophet Solomon (pbuh) is the forefather of the Mahdi (pbuh). Hazrat Mahdi will be very much like the Prophet Solomon (pbuh). Mahdi (pbuh) will also love arts, beauty and glory a lot. He will adorn the world. Our Prophet (saas) says that he will prosper the whole world, for Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh).

The Prophet Solomon (pbuh) is the sultan of arts and aesthetics. He is the one who taught arts and aesthetics to the world. Christianity learned the arts from him. They have learned how palaces should be adorned, how the masjids should be adorned, how the buildings should be adorned, all from him. The palaces in Europe, the palaces of the Ottomans have all been built by emulating the palace of the Prophet Solomon (pbuh). The Prophet Solomon is the father of all palaces, he is the father of arts, aesthetics and beauty.

Even the prettiest, the most beautiful person will decay under the ground [when they are dead]. Life is very short: We thank God for what He gave to us but it would be wrong to get attached to this body. Think about a very beautiful lady: Open her grave years later and you will see only a skeleton; a skull, arms and legs. Or think about all those heroes, the lions of the past: Even their bones are gone now.

Galata is sacred for the British deep state. They carried out their evil activities like murders and torture, all in that tower. It was also the center of their intelligence activities. They used the Galata Tower for intelligence.

If no one ever objected to us as we preached the religion, if everyone accepted everything we said, supported us, praised us, what do you think would happen in the Hereafter? The reward would be much less. But if there is objection, if you are working and making an effort despite that objection, the reward will be immense. God creates resistance, a lot of resistance, only so that Muslims will be more greatly rewarded . It is a gift of God to Muslims.

Galata was the center of the Mevlevi houses. That’s why the members of the British deep state revere it. That neighborhood is sacred to them; they regard it as the meeting point of their spies, of their agents.
