One needs to direct all his love and attention to Allah

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9 TV dated January 2^nd, 2012

ADNAN OKTAR: One needs to love Allah very much. One must not only say, "I do love [Allah]" and leave it there, because for instance, a person feels love for his loved ones, but we look into the love that person feels for Allah and we see that this love seems to be lesser than his love for his loved ones, it is less. The fact is however it is Allah Who creates that loved ones. I mean, it is also Allah Who creates that love in his heart. One says, "I do love my father." It is Allah Who creates his father, his image and everything else and it is Allah Who creates that love in his heart. We ask him, "How much do you love Allah?" Less, lesser.. There is a tremendous collapse of conscience at this point. There is something weird, something strange here. Love as a whole must be for Allah. Allah is the One Who deserves all love. Allah is the One Who deserves all attention. One needs to give all his attention to Allah.

Ms. EBRU: What you've just said is very important, masha'Allah.

ADNAN OKTAR: Of course, all attention should be directed to Allah. If the world does that, the world would turn into Paradise. Because they are aloof with Allah, Allah also remains aloof   with them. I simply express it this way so that you can understand it, Allah thus remains distant from them. That is why Allah does not grant any blessings and that is why people suffer so much pain. Throughout the world satan almost established a university, a school in an endeavor to prevent people love Allah. With the newspapers, radios, televisions under their control, they struggle not to make people love Allah, but when we dig deeper we see that this also is created by Allah. Of course.. It is very weird; we take a look at the time of Prophet Moses (pbuh); Allah first creates the Pharaoh and He creates disbelief in the Pharaoh. Allah says [to Prophet Moses (pbuh)], "The Pharaoh will object to every single thing you say. You will constantly work miracles, Pharaoh will reject all of them, he will object to every single one of them; he will accept none of them." This is how Allah created him. Allah says [to Moses (pbuh)], "And you will go and preach him." When we analyze it in the deeper sense, we encounter a very weird secret. For instance dajjal (anti-messiah) is created; Allah creates Darwin, Allah is the One Who creates darwinism, materialism. And it is also Allah Who creates Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) to demolish them. For instance had Almighty Allah willed so, He could have charged Prophet Jesus Messiah (pbuh) with this duty but He does not. He assigns Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) [to this duty], whereas he charges Prophet Jesus (pbuh) with politics, covert politics.

Violence is one of the methods of communists' worshiping the satan

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9 TV dated January 2^nd, 2012

ADNAN OKTAR: Yes, in the communist, Stalinist and Leninist mindset, violence is absolutely necessary. According to their mindset there is contradiction in the society and contradiction brings about conflict. As per their belief of thesis- anti-thesis and synthesis; they claim that there is naturally contradiction within the matter. They also claim that there is a contradiction in society and say that "Contradiction turns into conflict, and such incidents happen as a result of conflicts and thus we attain our goals." So they say; "The society improves in this way; by way of this conflict. We will thus proceed towards a communal society." Consequently violence is the indispensable form of act of worship for communism. This is an evil teaching, an evil act of worship for the communist religion, this atheist religion. According to their conviction, horror, blood and violence are absolutely essential. Our Interior Minister attempted to draw attention to this issue a little bit; they tried to turn the place upside down. Therefore it is a requisite to carry out an education program against communist violence. Anti-Darwinist, anti-materialist, anti-Stalinist, anti-Leninist education.. Apart from that, these men would continuously practice; they make exercises on communism and implement it. This gives them excitement, encourages them for brand new acts. They consider this as a successful act and continue. They believe that they will progress even more and become more effective if they continue with this mindset. They say, "At least we did not stand about doing nothing, we made something beneficial." Just as how Muslims give alms to a person, teach science, do somebody good, perform prayer and fasts -just as those are their acts of worship- the most important worship of communism, their regular prayer, is murder and violence. It is sabotage and destruction. These are their evil acts of worshiping. This is their way of worshiping the satan and that is what they are doing.

The malls of the Paradise will be super modern

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9 TV dated January 4^th, 2012

ADNAN OKTAR: The malls of the Paradise will be super modern. People assume that they will be made up of "grape branches,"etc.. But they actually are ultra-modern in the Paradise.

I mean  these malls we have right now in Turkey, would appear to be- let me say it like this- they would appear to be very very very primitive for you, let me say it that much. I mean it would not be possible to make a comparison. The malls in the Paradise are ultra-modern. The stairways, the design, the ornaments, the materials used… That is because you would take food and eat there as well, you just do not pay for them. For instance there would be places like café's there as well you go in them and have drinks, there are servants there, there are houris serving but in the end they do not put a bill on the plate. They do not put anything in front of you. You just say; "May Allah be pleased with you" and you go out and leave.  That is because they are bound to do that, they are the servants of Allah under command. Allah shows us the malls here just for us to get to know them here.  

This world is a place to be astounded at

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Interview on A9 TV dated January 6th, 2012

ADNAN OKTAR: The life of this world is very short, it is a place we live in very shortly. All those that come goes, all those that come goes. As you see, there are news about death every single day. No one is here to stay. No one will remain behind. This is a place to be very astounded at. When one looks carefully.. Well, when in primary school, secondary school and even sometimes in high school one would not be aware of this marvel that intensely.  I mean, later on one would look and see that he is in a very strange place. This is not that much understood while in primary school. A child [at that age] would only be asking whether or not his mother boiled eggs for him. He would just say; "Mum, I am late for school." Or he goes and hugs his father. He asks after the whereabouts of his bicycle. He would not even be aware of things. I mean he would not be aware how extraordinary the place he is in is. When in secondary school he would be laughing and playing with his friends. Then the signs of adolescence will appear. He would be asking what would happen to him in the future. As a matter of fact, he would even be making rehearsals for his marriage, etc. He would be thinking about what he would be doing, what kind of a job he would have, how would he be rich. He just thinks about things like these.

In his high school years, a bit more improved examples of these take place. "I will begin to work, I will be doing this, I will be doing that," he would say. Then he looks and sees that he is in an extraordinary place far above the business life and married life. He would then feel out of breath and say "Well, what have I been doing? While struggling with things like marriage, work.. and checks and bills etc.. I have been sent to this world with an extra ordinary life and I am not even aware of this." He would say; "There is a tremendous situation here."

Sometimes people would not be that much aware of such things. Then the amount of the amazement he feels would increase in time. He looks and sees that life is very short. "Allah, Allah.. why have I been this much obsessed with this world!" he would then say.  He would look and see that huge world is floating in the universe. Yet, there is magma in it and it is boiling profusely deep down. The crust of the world is as thin of an apple's peel. He would then realize that he has been living on a fire ball boiling profusely and it moves forward with a tremendous speed in an immense space. 

He looks and sees that there is another world inside the brain. He thus understands that the actual eyes he has do not see. He understands that his actual eyes are blind. He understands that his actual ears are deaf. He understands that eyes that are not made up of flesh are his real eyes. But he cannot see those eyes. Those eyes have no brain, no lens, no optic track, no nothing.  But those are the eyes that actually see. Look there is an eye inside the brain that sees the electric current. This is what is called the eye. The others have nothing to do with the eyes. They are electric producing machines. Eyes are machines that produce electricity. Ears are machines that produce electricity. They produce electricity with a very low ampere. It is nothing special. It is clear that the eyes do not see, the ears do not hear.  The soul inside the human brain sees sharply in full colors without having blood, without having optic tracks, without having a lens system, without having a brain. That is the real eye. And Darwinists do not talk about this real eye. That is the same with the ears.  Human ears can by no means hear. They can only produce electric current. They produce good electric current. Well when I say good; they actually produce a very thin, weak, low quality voice. They just produce the electricity pertaining to the voice. But that is very weak. If you were to give the electricity going to the ears to any other device after increasing the amperage, I mean if you attempt to turn it into voice you would be hearing a very distorted voice. It would be very bad. If you attempt to reflect the signals coming from the optic track going into the eye to a screen, a very bad blurred, out of focus image which you would not be able to see would be formed. There would be a terrible image that is upside down. Nothing could come out of that. There would not be such a three dimensional image that could not be differentiated from the real one- We cannot differentiate the image from the actual object at the moment, right? We cannot tell the difference, it is that sharp.

After a while, one would understand the system that sees this actual image. And then he looks and sees that he is in such helplessness. He is bound to have eight hours sleep every day; he is bound to have seven hours sleep. He first realizes this. He realizes illnesses, he sees that all his body is full of weaknesses from top to bottom.

Many people would then realize that they are putting on airs for nothing. And from that moment on he starts to give all his attention to Allah with all his might. That increases on and on as time passes by. The dosage of this would either increase or decrease depending on his strength of mind, faith and conscious, insha'Allah. And now we are striving hard to make sure that our people's faith would constantly increase.  

Allah tests Muslims with a very beautiful test

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9 TV dated December 13th, 2011 

ADNAN OKTAR: I look at the artistry of Allah.. it is amazing. And He shows this to us in an image inside our brains. Look at the colorfulness of this image. And what is more, there is someone who sees this image. I mean that is a complete mistery for people. Look there is someone who sees. That is such a great happening, my brother. There is no explanation for that. This is even more than metaphysical. Look there is someone who sees. Someone sees consciously. I mean there is no explanation for that. But no, making light drop on a point is something, forming an image [inside the brain] is another, and there is someone who sees that image. Someone who sees without an eye, who hears without an ear.. And that is the real person. How strange have we been created, how interesting our creation is. How extensive the artistry of Allah is. How beautifully are we being tested, how beautifully are we being tested..

I am very curious about the Hereafter, Paradise, masha'Allah. Hazrat Ali (ra) says, "You will wake up like waking up from sleep." He says, "You will wake up with a sharpness like a curtain opening." Who knows how? We will see, masha'Allah. We do not know how the doors of Paradise or the gardens of Paradise are like? For example, we will go and look at Hell, insha'Allah. Insha'Allah, Allah will save us from there insha'Allah. How strange? Masha'Allah. There is very little time; a trial time. People love this world during this trial time. Allah Allah, what is there to like in this world? It is obvious that Allah gave us means enough to pass the trial here. What is there to be devoted this such? Even a crazy person would not care this much.

Whisperings of the satan is a sign of faith, it should never be taken seriously

Slanders would elevate the rank of a Muslim

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9 TV dated January 6th, 2012

ADNAN OKTAR: What were you talking about?

Ms. GULSAH: We talked about the slanders casted upon Muslims, Master. 

ADNAN OKTAR: Well, let them cast slanders [as they like], what could come out of slanders? With the slanders the rank of a Muslim would elevate. He/She would become even better. When one casts slanders upon a Muslim, all his good deeds would be transferred to that Muslim; all the good deeds he has gathered.. Is this not a great blessing? And all the sins of that person would be transferred to the one casting slanders. How nice is this? Let him cast as slanders as ever he likes. The rank of a the Muslim would elevate in every single time they do that, his/her position in the Hereafter would flourish, his/her Paradise would be widened.

Mr. Adnan Oktar comments to Prof. Hooshang Amirahmadi about the false belief in a bloody Mahdi

Excerpt from the live conversation of Mr. Adnan Oktar with Prof. Hooshang Amirahmadi, president of the Iran American Council, on A9 TV, November 14th, 2011

ADNAN OKTAR: When Bin Laden came out, he claimed to be the Mahdi and he was known to be the Mahdi and you can see that on all the web sites. The belief in a bloody Mahdi is not unique to Shiism. It exists among the Sunnis also. It exists among more reactionary and fanatic sections that misinterpret the hadiths in a deviant and wrongful way, in total bigotry. They have a belief in a Mahdi that sheds rivers of blood just with their way of thinking. That is not only in the Jafari belief, but I am saying this because it is the Shiites' turn. Osama bin Laden claimed to be the Mahdi and was regarded as the Mahdi by all his followers. America has put an end to that Mahdi. Now they are waiting for the Mahdi to come out of Iran and preparations are being made for an operation against him. Not believing what I say about that changes nothing, because, may Allah forbid, you will have to believe it when this disaster happens. I have been talking about that disaster from the beginning. Osama bin Laden was regarded as the Mahdi by all bigot circles and extremists. They regarded him as the bloody Mahdi, and applauded him and regarded his actions as highly successful. This is just how the Mahdi should be, they said. The Mahdi should definitely shed blood, they said. There are such people among Muslims also. They say the Mahdi will slaughter the Jafari and Sunni. Some fanatic bigots say the Mahdi that will come will wipe out Wahhabis, Jafari and Sunni. These are bigoted people with the same mentality. You can find that in Shiism and Jafarism, also. I never said it existed among them [Shiites] only, but I am saying that now is their turn.

ADNAN OKTAR: America also conducted an operation in Iraq and that cost America a great deal. America gained nothing in Iraq. It also conducted an operation against Afghanistan. That cost America a great deal as well, and that is why America is in this economic crisis right now. America has got nothing to gain from Afghanistan and it has not obtained anything from it yet. Yes, it has oil and minerals, but America had no such attempts for that yet. It has taken nothing of Iraq's yet. It merely made expenses. America's main approach is one of preventing major events from breaking out in the region. They think that the appearance of a Mahdi, an unanticipated Mahdi, would swamp the world in blood and therefore bring down America and the rest of the world. And that is producing a kind of panic. Osama bin Laden was hailed as a great hero in his first attempts and they prepared the way for him as a supposed Mahdi. I said they would bring him out as a Mahdi and so they did. But America put an end to him in a bloody way.

ADNAN OKTAR: The best thing is for you to come to Turkey, and I will invite leading people from Iran, people whose words have weight. I will also invite people in key positions in Israel. Let us talk together and clarify the whole issue.

PROF. HOOSHANG AMIRAHMADI: First, I want to thank Mr. Adnan Oktar for this opportunity. It was a great talk, I learned quite a bit. I take his invitation seriously, and I accept it, and when the moment arrives, I will come to Turkey, I will be more than pleased to talk to anybody that he brings to any meeting on peace and prosperity for the region. I do agree with your general concept that some unknown, ghostly figures appear on the scene at some point in our history, and do seriously harm the community. We need to certainly fight that, and stop them from coming and doing the damage they do. It's been a pleasure, I need to say goodbye, but I will listen to the last words before I say goodbye, and I again thank you for the opportunity, and look forward to our future communication, and perhaps a meeting in Istanbul.

ADNAN OKTAR: I am pleased to have met you. Insha'Allah, I wish to be of use to you. I want to be of use to Islam and the Qur'an. I am at the command of all Muslims. I am also your brother. I am the brother of the Iranians. I respect and admire them all. I value them all. I have nothing against any of them. But the leaders in Israel have also met me, they are in a warlike state of tension. They are alarmed at the prospect of a imminent nuclear war. They want me to get involved. I speak with their leaders. Let us bring you and them together. Let us bring Iranian officials in and thus obtain a good result. That is the path of reason. We are all servants of Allah, and believe in the One Allah. I think we can obtain a good outcome. My respects and affection to you all. I hope to speak with you again very soon, Insha'Allah. May Allah bless you, Salaam Alaikum.

PROF. HOOSHANG AMIRAHMADI: And I thank you, and I shake your hands, and hug you for such a great purpose. And I pray that you will be successful in serving our Muslim communities throughout the world.

ADNAN OKTAR: Thank you, Salaam Alaikum.

PROF. HOOSHANG AMIRAHMADI: Thank you. My pleasure, thank you.

Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will be in touch with the Jews

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Interview on A9 TV dated January 2^nd, 2012

ADNAN OKTAR: [The accounts state that;] "Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will go to Bayt al-Maqdis, to Jerusalem." So that means he [Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)] will be in touch with Israel; that is to say he will be in touch with the Jews. The reason for that is; what does our Prophet (saas) say in his hadiths? "He [Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will rule the Jews with the original of the Torah." That is because he is the King Messiah (pbuh) that the Jews have been waiting for. There is only one Mahdi anyway. The Mahdi they [the Jews] have been waiting for and the Mahdi the Muslims are awaiting is the same.  

The most important matter in the world is weakness in faith

Explanations of the verses from the Surah Saba; the signs of the existence of Allah are very clear

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Interview on A9 TV dated December 1^st, 2011

ADNAN OKTAR: Surah Saba, verse 11. I seek refuge with Allah from the satan. "Make full-length coats of mail.." So that means defense is important in every period of time. At the moment, tanks and carriers are all equipped with wide armors. Right? Wide armor is a great necessity in the Southeast [of Turkey] for instance. ".. measuring the links with care. And act rightly, all of you, for I see what you do." "..measuring the links with care." That measured links are all created by Allah; Allah makes His servant an instrument in this. Here Allah is drawing our attention to technology. You see the technological devices; they are like razors. The technical parts are all very well-arranged. All of them come into existence in a very orderly manner. For instance at home I look and there is the television, Allah created it. I feel astounded.  I keep thinking, my brother, Allah creates the pen, He creates the radio, the television and shows them to us openly. I mean the signs of the existence of Allah are so very clear that He creates televisions, radios for you. And the man still comes up and says -May Allah forbid- "Does Allah exist or not?"  My brother Allah has created a computer in front of you. He creates a faucet and water comes out from that faucet. He creates water inside that faucet. I mean everything is original, extraordinary and wonderful.  

Atoms are spinning vigorously for 15 billion years

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Interview on A9 TV dated December 13th, 2011

ADNAN OKTAR: Of course, the artistry of Allah is not something that could be covered by descriptions, by explanations. I mean it is endless. We look at the chromosomes, for instance look you've just explained them, they are breathtaking. We look at the cell, it is breathtaking. We look at the atoms, they are breathtaking, we look at at the number of the atoms in the universe.. Now, think about the number of atoms in the universe, look they all are spinning in great regularity and vigorously for 15 billion years. They do not have gas, they do not have gause, they do not need fuel. They take their energy solely from Allah. They constantly spin. It spins even if it booms, it spins even if it is stricken, even if it is crashed, it constantly spins. It never seizes to exist whatever you do. When Almighty Allah recreates the universe, all the physics laws will be recreated as well. The physic laws as we know them are classical, they are known. There will be laws that will constantly amaze us. The structure of the matter will be different, the structure of the cell will be different, the laws of physics will be different. When Allah says "this is the law" we understand that it is the law, when Allah creates another law, we understand the other law.  

Dr. Timothy Furnish asks Mr. Adnan Oktar about the Iranian viewpoint of the Hazrat Mahdi's rule

(Istanbul, December 14^th, 2008)

TIMOTHY FURNISH: Again when I was in Iran at that conference a few months ago. I heard one paper given by an Iranian scholar discussing seriously the question whether the Mahdi and the twelve Imams, of course according to the Iranian view. When the Mahdi and the twelve Imam come, and I am asking the question in this paper by the Iranian scholar, will the Mahdi kill Jews and Christians or simply convert them? And he did say that would probably convert them but he wasn't sure. And then at the end of the conference Ali Larijani, the speaker of the Iranian parliament, gave a speech in which he quoted one of the Imams, I believe it was the sixth imam, that the Mahdi's rule will only come about through bloodshed and violence. Now I know you have already spoken about the wrong views of the Hizb ut-Tahrirs and the Al-Qaidas of the world, but would you respond in the same way, I guess is my question, to the Iranian viewpoint, at least the viewpoint that I saw expressed in Iran when I was there among some scholars?

ADNAN OKTAR: Of course, this are not statement that are based on hadith, or based on the Qur'an. These have gradually altered over the course of time, and are accounts that are not truly reliable hadith. The main characteristic of the Mahdi (pbuh) is that he does not shed blood, but is affectionate and compassionate and acts in a rational manner. He says that the Mahdi (pbuh) will even conquer Istanbul, but with the takbir, in other words by calling on Allah. No mentioning of shedding blood there. Said Nursi says that the materialist, Darwinist system will grow as he describes the Mahdi (pbuh). He says the Mahdi (pbuh) will entirely eradicate the materialist-Marxist system. He says he will eliminate the materialist-Darwinist system intellectually and scientifically. He says that books will be prepared to that end, he will prepare them and the books will fully discharge that function. He will be active in that respect, in summary. And he says he will start doing this in the year 1400 (hegira style). But he says that not even the Mahdi (pbuh) will know himself. He says his close disciples will recognize him through the light of faith. The same is also valid for Jesus (pbuh). He will not be aware of himself when he first returned but the close disciples of the Jesus will recognize him through the light of faith. That is why the description of the Mahdi there is rather more appropriate to that of the dajjal. I mean the Mahdi (pbuh) is not someone cruel, a shedder of blood, loveless and ruthless. We are told he will not waken the sleeper nor spill blood. Imagine the sleeping man; he will take great care to let him sleep. Don't touch him, let him sleep, he will say. That is the kind of scrupulous person he is. We are told even the birds in the air and the fish in the sea will be happy with him. It is wrong to depict such an affectionate person as violent. There is no account to that effect. The Prophet (saas) has made no such statement. And it is incompatible with the spirit of the Qur'an. In addition, violence leads only to hypocrisy. It results in insincere people. Nobody can be forced to be a Muslim. That is done through love, and affection, and moderation. A person will either accept it or not. If not, that is his decision. That is how Allah has created him, and that, too, is for the best. 

Mr. Adnan Oktar explains Dr. Timothy Furnish the alliance of Christians and Muslims in the End Times

(Istanbul, December 14^th, 2008)

TIMOTHY FURNISH: At one point you have written that; quote: "Setting up the Islamic Union will cause the danger of the clash of civilizations to disappear" which sounds like sort of what we are talking about here, but isn't there a sense in which an Islamic Union seems to foster the clash of civilizations by setting up particularly Islam in an Islamic Alliance, I guess against the Christian Alliance.

ADNAN OKTAR: The Islamic Union is not opposed to a Christian alliance. It is a union that allies itself with Christianity. Because we are talking of the coming of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh). The Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will return in 10 or 15 years. Christians and Jews and Muslims are all awaiting him with great excitement. Jews are also awaiting the Messiah, but the Messiah we and Christians in particular are awaiting is the Prophet Jesus (pbuh). We are awaiting the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) together with the Christian world and experiencing the excitement of that. So how can they be diametrically opposed to us? We have a common love and expectation, we are awaiting the Prophet Jesus (pbuh). There will therefore be a complete alliance, and no division.

Dr. Timothy Furnish asks Mr. Adnan Oktar about the perception of the West in the Islamic Union

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Conversation with Dr. Timothy Furnish, Istanbul, December 14^th, 2008

TIMOTHY FURNISH: There are some in the West, in the United States and in Europe particularly, who probably would see an Islamic Union as a threat. What would you say to anyone who might see it that way?

ADNAN OKTAR: This is a union that removes threat. It is a system that eliminates terror, violence and the concept of hostility toward other countries, that eliminates racial and religious hostility. There is a huge respect for other faiths in this system, and a feeling of protecting them, deep respect and affection for them and a conception of love, and a desire for all countries to be strong, healthy and at peace. There is no idea of any country being brought down, but one of all countries remaining healthy and good, of every country having its own color and beauty. That is why it is a system that eliminates threats. Because it is a system with no racial superiority, but one that is exceedingly respectful of other faiths.

A Muslim worships only Allah

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Interview on A9 TV dated December 13^th, 2011

ADNAN OKTAR: This world is a very weird place, it is a very very strange place. It is very weird that we are being tested. I mean one should not be besotted with this world, one should not deify people. People are deifying other people, they are idolizing them. I see such people, I turn on the TV, there they are; laying red carpets on the floor, calling one "Duke something" or "Count something." Ultimately these are pitiful human beings. Right? They will die and disappear from the face of this world. They would be wretched if they do not eat, they would be wretched if they do not drink water. These are pitiful beings with natural needs. You all see what will become of them if they do not bathe. Many of these people are very old and can hardly remain standing. Some can hardly remain standing with blood-tension drugs, some with rheumatism drugs, some with cancer drugs. As a matter of fact many of them cannot even attend to the same gatherings in the following year; they just get buried under the ground. These people are deifying such people. Is this reasonable? Is this something that a Muslim would do? A Muslim would only take Allah as God. One would only feel compassion for miserable servants of Allah, right? And feel hatred if that is a hypocrite, insha'Allah. 

Lack of fear of Allah lies beneath the dissolution of marriages

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Interview on A9 TV dated December 12^th, 2011

ADNAN OKTAR: For instance, lack of fear of Allah lies at the root of many separations. I mean this lies at the root of the dissolution of marriages. Both parties act selfishly or may be one party acts selfishly and egotistically and they watch for their own interests and if they see that something conflicts with their own interests, they instantly become ruthless. All those who previously say, "you are my heart, my beloved," those who say "I love her very much, I am crazy about her," you know these types in marriages, because things start to conflict their interests, because they have no fear of Allah when things start to conflict with their interests, they lose their controls all of a sudden. They get under the control of their lower-selves from that on. They do not face any problems up until that moment because things would not conflict with their own interests. But on the point in which they would have conflicts with their own interests, since they could only get hold of that with their fear of Allah, in the absence of fear of Allah, they lose control. They become like a truck with failed brakes; they crash here and there and the marriages end with scandals. They will end up with fights and scandals, they insult one another, they go and crash the other's house, they shoot at each other, inappropriate scandals come up and the marriages end with hatred. That is because in the absence of fear of Allah there would be a horrible pride and self-centeredness.    

Dr. Timothy Furnish asks Mr. Adnan Oktar about his views on Creation

Christian author Joel Richardson asks Mr. Adnan Oktar about the Israeli Rabbis' support for the Turkish Islamic Union.

Marc Kaufman of The Washington Post asks Mr. Adnan Oktar what his message is to the American
