It is nice for women to be admirable. What is forbidden for both men and women is illegitimate intercourse. I mean what is forbidden for them is to engage in illegal sexual intercourse. Or else there is no harm in a woman being liked, or a man being liked.

There will be no salvation, no relief for the Islamic Union as long as this misogyny remains; scourges would rain upon them. Half of the servants of God are female. Feeling such hatred towards women would thus summon the wrath of God.

At least half of the National Assembly should be women. Women should be given utmost freedom. The society is male dominant, that is clearly seen. Women are very superior, very precious, very clever, very decent and pure, beautiful beings. They are the ornaments of this world.

Women are being oppressed everywhere in the world and people are merely watching this oppression. With the system of the Mahdi this scourge will be removed. Mahdi (pbuh) will annihilate this scourge. The system in which women are held in high esteem, in which women enjoy utmost freedom, is the system of the Mahdi.

The spirit of showing compassion to women would increase love for women as well. Some people only see women as sexual objects. They would then approach them in the spirit of hatred. Compassion and the spirit of mercy and protection would increase love in folds. Actually compassion is mentioned all the time in the Qur’an. I mean there is love mixed with mercy, a protective kind of love.

Women are very intricate beings, one needs to treat them very attentively. One should treat them as if they are made of veil; one needs to be very wise to be able to stroll inside that soul. It is almost impossible to approach a woman with an obtuse, weak mind: That is because they are very easily offended, very easily saddened and very easily take offense. I mean there is a need for a very sharp mind and a very sharp attention.

Women meticulously look for wisdom because they are wise themselves, so they are very much impressed by intelligent and wise people.

God has taken the beauty of women, the love of women from the face of this world because people grew away from Him, because they developed a tendency towards Darwinism, materialism, because they tend towards materialist spirit, and especially because they grew away from the Qur’an.

The AK Party should advocate that women should be at least as strong as men in every sphere of life and at least as high in number as men. For instance, at least half of the National Assembly should consist of women. At least half of government officers should also be women and women should be positively discriminated towards.

The fact that Turkey is a modern country should be emphasized thoroughly. It should be well emphasized that we are a democratic country that protects the rights of women, that advocates the arts, beauty, aesthetics and science. A misleading image has been formed about our country, portraying Turkey as inclined to radicalism: We need to eliminate that image completely.

Banning ladies having fun is like uprooting an essential beauty out of this world. Women are the most important ornaments of the world. If women have fun, if they are happy, if they are cheerful, if they are able to show their beauty, it would be great.

When a young girl lives her life with profound faith, love and radiance, when she is brought up with a healthy, sound and reasonable upbringing, she becomes very lively and very beautiful. But that is not what they do. They say, “what happens if I become faithless?” That kills them spiritually. And when they die spiritually, they die physically as well.

Within the course of world history, they [bigots] have generally turned this world into a living hell for women. When born a woman, she doesn’t have the opportunity to have fun, to wear what she likes or to dress up. Loving and being loved is forbidden, being joyous is forbidden, everything is forbidden for them. Let them have fun, let them be joyous and wear whatever they like. Leave them alone so that they can live in peace.

Intelligence looks very good on women. I mean that intelligent expression in their eyes. For instance, a woman who gazes with birdlike, empty eyes loses all her glory, all her splendor. If one doesn't have such a genuine problem with her mind, it is such witlessness for a woman to accept such an appearance.

Men's interference on women should be lifted already. That is really embarrassing and it is the shame of centuries. People should be saved from this scourge in no time. Ladies should enjoy utmost freedom. They should be able to dress as ever they like, they should be able to talk as ever they like and go wherever they like.

Women are the manifestations of God. Love for women stems from love of God. It stems from the love felt for the manifestations of God. God manifests Himself with His Name "An-Nur", "Al-Jamal". All beauties belong to God.

Radicals regard women as evil, they see them as the source of sins that ruin men, destroy families and harm humanity. I mean, misogyny is very widespread and intense among radicals.

Women are ruined in the traditionalist orthodox understanding of Islam. They can neither have the freedom to dress up, nor to laugh, or to sit properly or to walk about as they like. Even their eating as they wish is an offense. They [the radicals] say, "If you let them eat a lot, they would go rampant and cause you troubles. If you let them wear beautiful clothes they would attempt to go out to the streets to show off."

No one should interfere in anything about women. Women should always be subjected to positive discrimination. Wherever we go, we should them as very high quality, immaculately clean and well kept.

A policy, an attitude that instructs women, I mean assuming a higher tone about them is really annoying and disturbing. Ladies are very wise, highly cultivated and high quality people. God created people as equals; both men and women are created as equals. They are equal in every aspect.

Women should be free. I mean no one is in a position to instruct women, they are in no position to counsel women. If anyone needs to counsel, it is women who should counsel men. I mean they should be given an edge over men in this respect.

We should respect women and know that they would do what is necessary to be done. Every woman knows very well how to protect her honor, her pride and her purity. They also know how to dress themselves.

Women are very gentile and kind beings. There are carnations in the gardens and they need to be looked after very meticulously. Or else they would die away instantly. That is the same with women, you need to pay attention to everything about them. For them to be spiritually and physically perfect they should be looked after even more meticulously than the flowers.

Women are sweet beings; they are very very beautiful beings. Women are the greatest blessings of this world. They are the greatest blessing the eyes can see. Freedom is very crucial for their happiness. They should be valued, they should be respected, protected and watched over.

If we were to say; "Why are you adorned like this? Why are you colored? Why are you full of colors? Why do you smell beautiful like this?" to the flowers, would that be logical? That shouldn't be asked to a woman either. "Why are you beautiful like this?" Do you want them to be ugly? Of course they will be beautiful.
