Muslims should strive for the salvation of the whole Islamic world not only for the salvation of Palestine

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9 TV dated January 15^th, 2011

ADNAN OKTAR: During the celebrations of the [47^th] anniversary of Al-Fatah, the senior religious authority of Palestine, Mufti [Muhammed Hussein] stated: "The destiny of Muslims is to murder Jews. The Day of Judgment will only come about when Muslims kill Jews."

So he [Mufti] says; "once Jews are killed, Muslims will attain relief. There will then be no hindrance before the Turkish-Islamic Union. Everything will turn out to be splendid, this is all it takes." Well, what if you unite without murdering the Jews? What would you lose? May Allah forbid, let us assume that you have made such a massacre; what would you do afterwards? You will keep on brewing your shisha (nargeela), and lie down, scratching your tummy. Do the Jews tell you not to read the Qur'an? Do they tell you not to establish the Islamic Union? Do they want you not to struggle against Darwinism and materialism? Do the Jews hinder your way? It is your governments that make it obligatory to teach Darwinism and materialism. Do the Jewish prime ministers make it obligatory? Or do the Jewish Presidents make it obligatory? You do that yourselves; You do believe in Darwinism and materialism anyway.

 In Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria and Palestine.. Palestine used to be the fortress of communism. Palestine was the place where people received communist training. People all over the world used to go there to get guerilla training. Did Jews conduct the communist training there? You did. Did Jews establish the communist guerilla camps? You did. You can go nowhere by bloodshed. Allah will inflict affliction upon you if you shed blood; you will simply be on a downward spiral of troubles. Pull yourselves together. I address to all those who are pro-murder.

Jews are the descent of the prophets; Allah predestined them as Jews. They live as Jews. The Qur'an refers to them as the People of the Book. The People of the Book are under the aegis of Muslims. Their lives, possessions, honor and chastity are under the aegis of Muslims. Muslims can marry ladies from the People of the Book, they can make commerce with them, eat their food; one can't simply go and kill them. In this case, let's assume that one has a Jewish wife; will he go and kill her as well? According to this mindset, right?  They say there is a hadith which reads "Stones, trees will provide information." Notice what he [Mufti] said; "Our war is of a war with the forefathers of apes and swine." May Allah forbid, he considers the entire community of the People of the Book as apes and swine. Does Allah refer to them as "apes and swine" in the Qur'an? They are referred as "the People of the Book." Does Allah tell us to go marry apes and swine in the Qur'an?  Allah says, "Marry with the People of the Book", right? He says; "You can marry with the People of the Book." Now according to the mindset of this person, that person would be marrying an ape or a swine by doing that. Again in compliance with this mindset, their children would also become apes and swine. Does Allah tell us to go and eat the food of apes and swine or does He tell us that we can eat the food of the People of the Book? "You can eat the food of the People of the Book, you can marry with the People of the Book," says Allah. They must not misbehave, act unscrupulously. They are thus waging a war against the Qur'an; they are unaware of what they are telling. Their ears do not hear what they utter. That expression referred to a specific community of the time that revolted against Allah. "Be apes and swine." Right now Allah also turns the bigots into apes and swine. Whoever wages a war against Allah and the Qur'an, that person turns into an ape or a swine. Therefore it is haram (unlawful) to say that stones and trees will point to every Jew and you will kill Jews altogether, whether a girl, woman or a child. This is unbecoming for a Muslim to utter; it is an encouragement to massacre, to a genocide. It is persecution and it is wholly in contradiction with the Qur'an. Allah would not command us to go and kill them after telling us that we can marry them. Allah would not tell us to go kill them after He tells us that we can eat their meals. If Allah calls them "the People of the Book", then He does not tell us to go and kill them. "Stones and trees providing information" is a sign that refers to the structuring of the security intelligence at the End Times. I recently said that as well. I said that secret cameras should be installed in rocks and trees to be used in the technical surveillance of the terror organization of the PKK. Indeed it is currently being done. One may be a Jew or a Christian, a Muslim or a Buddhist. If he is immoral, someone committing persecution, then he must be subject to technical surveillance and arrested. Isn't a Muslim who is cruel also arrested? So, that is okay.. If needed, [also a Muslim] is punished. Anyone committing persecution -whether a Christian, a Buddhist or a Muslim- would be treated in compliance with the same provision.  Consequently this is not an issue peculiar to Jews. If a Jew commits a crime, he is also punished. They also punish those criminals among them, they imprison them. They penalize those criminals. They subject them to technical surveillance as well. This is a hadith that refers to the technical surveillance that will be carried out at the End Times. Or else, if one talks about the annihilation of our Jewish brothers, the descent of Prophet Abraham (pbuh), the descent of the Prophet Israel (pbuh), the descent of Prophet Joseph (pbuh) and Prophet Solomon (pbuh), solely depending on this hadith, despite the provisions of the Qur'an; then this means that this guy also rejects the verses of the Qur'an. According to this hadith, he should not adopt the other verses of the Qur'an [May Allah forbid]. That is because he can take a Jewish wife, then he will look at this hadith and say to his wife; "I learned that you are a swine, an ape", "Even if you hide behind a stone or a tree, I will kill you." He will kill his wife just before his kids, is that it? This would be a murder, a persecution and an insanity. A Muslim would never say such a thing. Under the influence of mass psychology they put forward such aberrant sentiments, such erroneous views. Such societies absorbed in grudge and envy consisting of people growing up with lack of love embrace this. Rather than getting involved in such persecution and making effort solely for the salvation of Palestine, say; "let us struggle for the salvation of the entire Islamic world. Let us demand the Unity of Islam and Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). May Allah make Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) our leader". Jews await King Messiah and we are awaiting Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). They are the same person. A Muslim must say "Let us live altogether in bliss and unite." Jews must also feel comfortable, why would we kill them? May also Christians feel at ease, and so do the Muslims. May everyone feel at ease. You do not want the Unity of Islam. You are far-removed from the Unity of Islam. You do not embrace it. You do not embrace Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh), the King Messiah. You do not accept the descent of Prophet Jesus (pbuh) and then you say that we must act despotically. You say that we must annihilate everyone through mass-execution. Will you even stop there? Let us say you annihilated the Jews as a whole. Then it will be the turn of Christians. You will also annihilate them. Then it will be our Shia brothers' turn. The man says that he will also chop them up like leek. He says " like leek" Then you will chop the Jaferites, the Alawites, the Bektashis, the Wahabites, the Buddhists and the communists.

Almost no one will remain left on earth. You already reprehend those who are not the members of your own sect, your own community; you will also chop them up. Allah does not give way to such aberrant notions, such ideas and those have always remained as oppressed people. They have always been losers. Prosperity does not come through persecution. Persecution is not to be encouraged. There is peace, love and compassion in the Qur'an. Muslims are responsible for protecting the People of the Book. This was what was practiced in the time of our Prophet (saas). Muslims used to revere the churches, their synagogues. In the Qur'an Allah relates that churches and synagogues are under protection. They are under the protection of Muslims. They can perform their religious obligations as ever they like. Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) who will come in the End Times will treat Jews with the original of the Torah, Christians with the original of the Gospel and Muslims with the morality of the Qur'an. This is the word of our Prophet (saas) revealed to him. This is the true word. That is why encouraging people to such erroneous convictions, views would be haram. That would be a sin, very wrong and it is a persecution. An unwise suggests an idea and big masses may follow it because they instructed the masses in compliance with rage and grudge. For instance look at Facebook; people are full of hatred, rage. Expressions of love are very scarce. I see that even young girls curse one another with sexual content. They formed abbreviations of curses, all having sexual content. They curse almost after each statement. Then they say, "Why do you say 'Insha'Allah' almost after each word? And I ask you; why do you add a curse after each word? We do add the words "Insha'Allah" and "Masha'Allah" after everything we say and you do add the abbreviations of curses with sexual content at the end of every sentence.  What you are doing is wrong; what we are doing is right. Insha'Allah.

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.

It is very important to keep the Unity of Islam on the agenda because the Unity of Islam is a religious obligation

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

Lalit K. Jha of Indo Asian News Agency asks Mr. Adnan Oktar about his views on freedom of speech

Mr. Adnan Oktar explains the essential factors underlying this current economic crisis

(Indo Asian News Agency (IANS) - November 14^th, 2008)

 LALIT K. JHA: I was reading one of the articles written by you and in one of those you did mention about the current economic crisis and you said that the interest rates charged by banks are probably one of the main factors responsible for it. Could you eleborate on it and then what is the solution to the grand economic crisis that the world is facing?

ADNAN OKTAR: Of course I will be saying the same things again. The essential factors underlying this current economic crisis is the high interest rates, people’s failing to put trust in Allah, fear, that is to say, expectation of the worst from the future, amassing fortune and property, and avoidance from spending, not being generous in giving away to the poor and being mean. These are the causes for such occurrences. If money is distributed, money circulates and production increases. When money is withheld, property is also withheld. When property is withheld, production is withheld. Then the system comes to a total death. This is due to the egotism, selfishness of some people. 

Mr. Adnan Oktar: A genuine Muslim, a person of faith, would absolutely be against terror

(Der Spiegel, September 14^th, 2008)

INTERVIEWER: Alright. You refer I guess, to his remarks that root of terrorism is religion. I think this is what Dawkins wrote more or less. In contrast, you consider atheism as the root of evil and terrorism.

ADNAN OKTAR: To date, Darwinism has laid the groundwork for Hitler’s and Mussolini’s fascism and Stalin’s communism and communist applications. And when we look at the present day, we see that all the members of terrorist organisations, those that portray themselves as Muslim organisations also, are Darwinists, and atheists. That is to say, a faithful person who prays regularly and worships does not go and plant bombs here and there. It is just people who pretend to be Muslims, those who depict themselves as Muslims, who perpetrate bombings or Darwinists who make it clear that they are terrorists or communists who commit terrorism. Consequently they are all Darwinists. A person of true faith who has fear of Allah, who loves Allah, can neither commit terrorism, nor refrain from describing its horrors. A genuine Muslim, a person of faith, is absolutely against terror and can never accept terror.

INTERVIEWER: It is quite hard to imagine that someone like Bin Laden would ever embrace Darwin and Darwinism.

ADNAN OKTAR: It is not as it seems. You do not see that appearance and style in such people in their youth. I mean, they assume this guise later in their lives. Yet, when their actual faith is scrutinized, when an attentive examination is made of their true faith, the fact emerges that they are genuine materialists and Darwinists. That is because it is impossible for a person with fear of Allah to commit such acts, because of his faith. In other words, his will refuses to permit him to engage in such acts. If he is capable of engaging in them, that means there is a weakness in his faith in Allah, or that he has no faith whatsoever. Most of these people are therefore Darwinists. Such acts are committed by people who were educated abroad, who received a Darwinist education and who internalized Darwinism, but who later called themselves Muslims. When scrutinized carefully, when their speech and writings are carefully analysed, we see that all these people are Darwinists. 

Christian author Joel Richardson asks Mr. Adnan Oktar about Jesus Christ's (pbuh) second coming

Christian author Joel Richardson asks Mr. Adnan Oktar about Jesus Christ's (pbuh) second coming

(Istanbul, 22 June 2009)

JOEL RICHARDSON:  Okay thank you. With regard to Jesus; you have said “in my view the prophet Jesus has already returned to the earth but he is hidden. He is obliged to conceal himself because of the terrorist and political attacks he would be exposed to. However he too will emerge in the very near future and together with the Mahdi will embark upon his intellectual struggle.” Do you believe that when Jesus return he will abolish Christianity as we know it today, do you believe that he will abolish the doctrines of the trinity of the divine incarnation of the Messiah as well as the Christian doctrine that the Christ was crucified died resurrected and sent to heaven?

ADNAN OKTAR: The essential belief in Christianity is the Oneness of Allah, belief in the hereafter, justice, the idea that Allah will provide justice. It is loving Allah and being careful over what is lawful and unlawful. It is treating people well. These are other matters, the belief in Trinity and other things. If with the coming of the Jesus, if it undergoes a change in the sense we are familiar with then Christianity would return to its former perfect state. It will return to its original form. According to our beliefs, it will return to the true Christianity. Again according to our belief, the original and the true Bible will also be found in that time. Maybe they will examine it using the Carbon 14 technique or using other methods, but the original form of the Gospels will be found. I mean, when the prophet Jesus comes and says that Allah is One, that is not something that will do away with Christianity. He would be saying something that reinforces Christianity. I mean, Christianity is in any case a religion of Islam. If we had lived in the time of the Prophet Jesus, we would have been Christians as well. If we had been around in the time of the Prophet Musa, we would have been Jews. Consequently the religion of the Prophet Ibrahim was also the true deen at the time and unaltered Christianity brought by the Prophet Jesus is the true Christianity. The Torah and the religion brought by the Prophet Musa is also the true faith, but according to our belief it has gradually been altered over the course of time. When the Prophet Jesus comes-  there are some Christians sects that are against the Cross. They do not have the Cross. I believe there are even some such sects and various groups in America.  But they still say “We are Christians,” I mean this does not stop them being Christians.  In other words, it is their believing in the Oneness of Allah and in the statements of the Prophet Jesus on other matters, their acceptance of statements compatible with the Qur’an, that makes them truly Christian and that makes them a true Muslim, it makes their belief a true religion of Islam.

In our belief, when the Prophet Jesus comes he will correct certain altered aspects of the New Testament. He will restore the New Testament to its original form and consequently he will be following the Qur’an. That is to say a New Testament whose altered aspects have been corrected will in any case be restored to its pure and original form. But since the Qur’an is the final scripture, of course the Prophet Jesus will follow the Qur’an. But the pronouncements of the New Testament will not be invalidated. I mean the pronouncements of a true scripture will not be lifted. For example, the true pronouncements of the original form of the Torah will not be invalidated; I read the Torah night and day, for instance. I read the New Testament. There is no reason for those pronouncements to be lifted. For example, the Torah says that Allah is One. That delights me, it is a most excellent thing to say. Only those parts that are incorrect according to our belief will be put right. Otherwise no pronouncement of that book can be lifted. But I follow the Qur’an, of course. And when the Prophet Jesus comes he will also follow the Qur’an. But Muslims will also benefit from the New Testament and will read it. They will abide by the correct pronouncements in it. And they will abide by the correct pronouncements in the Torah as well. Because all three, the Qur’an, the Torah and the New Testament, say the same things, so if you comply with one you would be complying with all. A Christian who complies with the original New Testament does not leave Christianity rather consolidates it. When the New Testament turns into its original form I will abide by it too.  Of course I follow the Qur’an, but I also apply the correct and proper pronouncements in the New Testament. I will also apply the correct and proper pronouncements in the Torah when it is found, and if there are parts of it that have been changed by the pronouncements of the Qur’an, then of course I follow the Qur’an. But I comply by all those pronouncements that are the same in all three.

Prof. Robert S. Wistrich asks Mr. Adnan Oktar about Jews' living in the Holy Land

Prof. Robert S. Wistrich asks Mr. Adnan Oktar about Jews' living in the Holy Land

 (A9 TV, November 24^th, 2011)

PROF. ROBERT S. WISTRICH: I want to ask something that goes more to heart of the problem that is often referred to as the "Palestinian Question", and which is, I know, an issue for millions of Muslims. And I want to ask why is it that it seems that for many Muslims around the world it is so difficult to understand the historical and the religious and certainly the physical and spiritual connection of Jews to the land of Israel? Because our Holy Books, the Bible, the Hebrew Bible, also the Christian New Testament and in the Qur'an itself, it seems to me that it should be clear that the Jewish people, when they began to return in large numbers to Zion, to the land of Israel, which is also Palestine for the Palestinian people, that they were not foreign invaders, they were not strangers, they were coming to the place which their culture, their religion, everything in our history originates; it's the birthplace, it's the Holy Land, and it was originally associated with the Jewish people and as children of Abraham and Isaac, and Jacob and of course the land to which Moses lead the children of Israel after they left Egypt, the bondage of Egypt. So I ask myself, why is it so difficult for so many Muslims, of course I understand it's not the case with Mr. Oktar, but why is it so difficult? That is my question.

ADNAN OKTAR: Yes.. In verse 104 of Surat al-Isra', Almighty Allah says, I seek refuge with Allah from the satan, "We said to the tribe of Israel after that, 'Inhabit the land and, when the promise of the Hereafter comes, We will produce you as a motley crowd'."

In other words, according to the Qur'an, it is necessary and normal for the Israeli people to live on those lands, and it is something ordained by Allah in destiny. But the purpose in the people of Israel being there is not so that they can eat and drink and live at ease. Allah wants Israel to be devout, He wants them to be faithful and -this is a very important point- He wants them to follow Moshe, the King Messiah. When they follow Moshe, or Siloh, the King Messiah, Allah says He will bestow peace, plenty and abundance in that region. Otherwise, He says He will take revenge and inflict terrible trials and tribulations. In other words, if Israel tries to live as a Darwinist and materialist in the region, Allah says in the Torah that He will give it no peace. He describes at length how He will inflict great suffering and disasters. He says He will put fear in their hearts and wreak terrible vengeance. But if they follow the King Messiah, Moshe, and are truly religious, then He says He will allow them to live in plenty and abundance in the region. This hugely important point clearly needs to be made clear to state officials and everyone in Israel. Otherwise, Allah says He will do what He sets out in the Torah.

Lalit K. Jha of Indo Asian News Agency asks Mr. Adnan Oktar about the conflict in Kashmir

Lalit K. Jha of Indo Asian News Agency asks Mr. Adnan Oktar about the conflict in Kashmir

(Indo Asian News Agency (IANS) - November 14^th, 2008)

LALIT K. JHA: India and Pakistan has a conflict in Kashmir. Being an Islamist leader, what is your view on resolving that conflict?

ADNAN OKTAR: Mutual compassion, love and tolerance, because a person does not feel happy with a piece of land. One is happy with love and faith. Love felt for human beings, faith, mutual understanding, mutual trust will I think solve these problems. For instance, I guess that you are a Hindu, but you are my brother, I feel compassion and affection for you. You are also a servant of Allah and I respect your views and your faith. Consequently I do not have any feelings of animosity towards you. And I think a Muslim also thinks in the same way. If there is a piece of land, for instance, there is no need to quarrel over it whether it belongs to one or the other. Both sides should agree on the most honest, the most sincere, and the most rational situation. The most conscientious decision should be adopted. Then the matter will be resolved, but of course there should be a referee. The fact is that, there is a need for people from the outside. That is to say, arbitration is important in such matters.

LALIT K. JHA: So you are basicly supporting a peaceful dialogue between India and Pakistan with possibly a third party to ensure this peace in the country. This brings me to the role of Turkey in playing the role of in between Afghanistan and Pakistan, Turkey being possibly a third party to ensure peace between those countries. How do you see the Turkey's role in Afghanistan and the conflict that is going on there?

ADNAN OKTAR: Of course, there needs to be a very strong cultural policy there. That is to say, love, compassion, friendship, forgiveness, tolerance, being well mannered,  brotherhood and beauty should be propagated. We should propagate to have beauty and aesthetics all around us. These values need to be communicated to people. Everyone feels comfortable when such an environment is secured. That is to say, you are a Hindu, for instance, another person might be a Budhist or another person might have adopted another belief. Allah created all of us with various beliefs. Yet all of us are brothers, that is to say, Allah creates it this way. In other words, people live their lives in the way they are created by Allah. For this reason, beautiful environments, beautiful words, and beautiful speech remove the tension, urge people to a more peaceful, affectionate life. The world is large enough to provide room for everyone. The world is not a place for so much fight and conflict. This is a place to worship Allah, an environment to earn the pleasure of Allah.

Mr. Adnan Oktar explains Alexander Murinson that we are living in the time of King Messiah

(A9 TV, November 11^th, 2011)

ADNAN OKTAR: It is now the time of the King Messiah, the Shiloh. Both according to the Torah and according to the hadiths, there is no time other than this. We are at the End of Times, we are at the treshold of the Last Day. Apart from this century there is no other time for the appearance of the King Messiah. There is no other time for the arrival of the Mahdi. The foundation of the state of Israel is itself a portent of the arrival of the Mahdi, the Moschiah. All the portents defined in the Torah have been realized. All the portents defined in the hadiths of our Prophet (saas) have been realized. The weapons will be removed, the armings will stop from that on. The money spent of weapons will be directed to the natural needs like food and clothing of the poor and the needy. From that point on the dissension and anarchy would decrease gradually and disappear.  

Hazrat Khidr (pbuh) would not let any adverseness against Islam and Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)

Hazrat Khidr (pbuh) would not let any adverseness against Islam and Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)

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

ADNAN OKTAR: "Master, it might be because of the green color on you but tonight when we look at you Hazrat Khidr (pbuh) comes to mind the most, Masha'Allah. You have not been telling us about Hazrat Khidr (pbuh) for a while now. Would it be possible if you could tell us about the activities of Hazrat Khidr (pbuh) in these days? You would know better insha'Allah."

He [Hazrat Khidr (pbuh)] plays a trick on those who fall afoul of Mahdi (pbuh), of Islam; those who fall afoul of the Union of Islam. He gets them into troubles, he crashes their heads [intellectually]. Let me not mention the methods he adopts [while doing this]. I mean he crashes the heads of all those vermin wherever they are, insha'Allah. 

As a characteristic of the time of the King Messiah (Hazrat Mahdi), the Israeli and Turkish nations will mix with each other (From the interview with the Israeli Researcher-Author Mr. Alexander Murinson)

As a characteristic of the time of the King Messiah (Hazrat Mahdi), the Israeli and Turkish nations will mix with each other (From the interview with the Israeli Researcher-Author Mr. Alexander Murinson)

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Interview on A9 TV dated October 11th, 2011

ALEXANDER MURINSON: Yes. I actually wrote a book, published a book in England which is called, "Turkey's Entente With Israel and Azerbaijan" and this book was part of my dissertation, my doctoral dissertation in London and in this book I make the claim that Turkey, Israel and I wrote specifically about Azerbaijan, the Azerbaijani people are uniquely endowed to be very,  extremely very close allies, because of the historical and because of the historical warmth between these three people, so it's a logical extension in the modern times, in the modern context of international relations that this union which was propagated in 1999 but I think that as you mentioned with respect that a lot of tensions which have been noted in the media need to be calmed down and the media  should send a message of calm and confidence in this special gift of friendship between Turkish and Israeli people.

ADNAN OKTAR: Yes, what is practiced is important. In practice there is no tension in between peoples; in between the Turkish people and the Israeli people. But there might be some political discussions, political tensions in between governments. This is not something binding for the peoples, it is not something that fundamentally effects them. There is nothing that changed, on the contrary Israeli people and the Turkish people have drawn even closer to each other and are in an emotional state that coalesces with each other even further. That is because, this is the specialty of the time of King Messiah. That will happen anyway. I mean Allah does this even if people do not want to.. I mean that is a very wondrous time. The time [we are living in] is an extra-ordinary time. Allah influences the hearts of people with His name al-Jabbar. Willingly or unwillingly people will all enter into this affection, this unity. The people of Israel, as you know, have been waiting for the Messiah for 3000 years. It is now the time of the King Messiah, the Shiloh. Both according to the Torah and according to the hadiths, there is no time other than this. We are at the End of Times, we are at the threshold of the Last Day. Apart from this century there is no other time for the appearance of the King Messiah. There is no other time for the arrival of the Mahdi. The foundation of the state of Israel is itself a portent of the arrival of the Mahdi, the Moschiah. All the portents defined in the Torah have been realized. All the portents defined in the hadiths of our Prophet (saas) have been realized. The weapons will be removed, the arming will stop from that on. The money spent of weapons will be directed to the natural needs like food and clothing of the poor and the needy. From that point on the dissension and anarchy would decrease gradually and disappear.

A Muslim must be full of life, well-groomed and highly cultured

A Muslim must be full of life, well-groomed and highly cultured

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Interview on A9 TV dated October 22^nd, 2011

ADNAN OKTAR: Muslims must be quality people; they must be clean, beautiful and well-groomed. So do the ladies; they will be pure and well-groomed. Young men will be clean and well-groomed. A Muslim with shabby dress is unacceptable. It is not acceptable for a Muslim to stink like an animal, to be unsightly, to be unable to weigh his words, to be ignorant, to be unknowledgeable about the world, to have no general culture, to have no manners, to be unaware of quality and gentleness, to dislike science and arts, to be introverted like animals. There cannot be such a Muslim, like a dead person. A Muslim must be full of life, well-groomed, beautiful and classy. The most beautiful things in the world will belong to Muslims. The best car, the most beautiful house, the most elegant furniture, the nicest words, the most quality tableware, the most beautiful clothes; Muslims are worthy of the best of everything.

Such a dirty, stinky, abject model of Muslims is unacceptable. There cannot be such a Muslim type who has a stupid look, with the appearance of an imbecile, one that brings shame on himself and on anyone else around him, one who is tasteless. A Muslim will be ardent. He will have good manners, classy and quality. Anyone looking will admire him/her and say to himself, "I wish to be a Muslim as well," right?

They made people alienate themselves from Islam. They didn't represent the essence of Islam, instead they formed a filthy, scorched structure, out of the superstitions they made up themselves. They said, "This is Islam." They made people run away from Islam. They do not come to the essence of Islam. What is the essence of Islam? Love, peace, brotherhood, honesty, sincerity, good intentions, forgiveness, generosity, protecting and taking care of, loving Allah with fervor, having deep fear of Allah. Right? The lawful and the unlawful; there is no limit to what is lawful; unlawful things are only a few. There are only a few unlawful things. They form such an ocean of unlawful things; they claim that there are millions of them. How many lawful things are there [according ot their minds]? So few that you can count them with your fingers. You stupid fools, you! On the contrary, lawful things are vastly wide. Lawful things are so many; unlawful things can be counted by fingers, there are only very few unlawful things.
