Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar’s interview on A9TV dated August 5, 2013
Surat al-Qamar, Verse 29
They called on their companion and he set to it and hamstrung her [camel].
He hamstrings the camel with a sword. Look, Almighty God greatly dislikes cruelty to animals. The reason for the affliction that comes here is the maltreatment of that animal; cruelty to an animal, not to a human being. God destroys the place because of the cruelty to the animal. Cruelty to animals is like cruelty to human beings. God imposes the same punishment in the case of cruelty to animals. Hamstringing; the animal is covered in blood and writhing in pain. Yet the camel is a delightful animal. He is a wicked person, there is a lawful way. Is there any reason for your cruelty to the animal? The animal is writhing and covered in blood. It cannot walk. The animal cannot speak. It cannot tell of its troubles.
Surat al-Qamar, Verses 30-31
How terrible were My punishment and warnings!
We sent a single Blast against them and they were just like a thatcher’s reeds.
God sends a terrible disaster. He is speaking of something like an atom bomb here. There may be an explosion caused by the use of a simpler technique, combining one substance with another. There is something. People of that time had that knowledge. Almighty God makes them His instrument.
Surat al-Qamar, Verse 32
We have made the Qur’an easy to remember. But is there any rememberer there?
One must ask this to the fundamentalists. God says He has made it easy to remember. It has been translated into Turkish. But one of them came up and wrote saying; “We could never understand it in 40 years.” God says that unbelievers cannot understand the Qur’an. This one says, “We could never understand it in 40 years.” Look, this is just what God is saying.
Surat al-Qamar, Verse 34-35
We unleashed a sudden squall of stones against all of them, except the family of Lut, who We rescued before dawn.
It was a blessing direct from Our presence. That is how We recompense those who give thanks.
It is amazing. God deliberately sets good people aside in such matters. If there is someone who preaches and talks about Islam, He sets him to one side. Nothing generally happens to such people in mass destructions, by God’s leave.
Surat al-Qamar, Verse 38
Early morning brought them enduring punishment:
Morning is when they are most troubled. God generally strikes in the morning, when people are most relaxed.
Surat al-Qamar, Verse 42
They dismissed every one of Our Signs and so We seized them with the seizing of One Who is Almighty, All-Powerful.
The wicked have always been defeated. The wicked are on the offensive again today. But they are condemned to defeat. The wicked are unaware of this law. Otherwise they would never start. They would not continue being wicked. But their cruelty lasts very little. Some 40 years or so. Then they are buried.
Surat al-Qamar, Verse 43
Are your unbelievers better than those peoples’? Or have you been given exemption in the Books?
People say, “Why do you compare someone to Pharaoh?” But God says “Are they better?” In other words, no unbeliever is better than any other. They are all unbelievers. They are the same if they are unbelievers, insincere cruel and ruthless. “Or have you been given exemption in the Books?” says God. God would have to make such a ruling.
Surat al-Qamar, Verse 44
Or do they say, ‘We are an assembly who will win’?
Look, it is always revenge and killing and wickedness. God does not want that.
Surat al-Qamar, Verse 45
The assembly will be routed and will turn their backs in flight.
It lasts very little. You will see that they will absolutely be defeated in Syria. They will absolutely be defeated in Egypt. But look, only the extremists will be defeated. The true ones, those who follow the Qur’an, will be victorious. Extremists are always defeated in power. An administration can only remain in power on the path of the system of the Mahdi. That is how God creates it. If an administration sticks to the path of the way of the Mahdi, then it cannot be overthrown. It will persist until near the Last Day. Then it will collapse. But it cannot collapse while on the path of the system of the Mahdi.
But since we are close to the Last Day, some administrations will fall very quickly, some governments will fall very quickly. As God wants the system of the Mahdi to prevail right away, because time is short. There are communities, secret communities used by God. They have received their instructions. The reign of Islam, in a system like that of the Mahdi, in systems like the Illuminati, Freemasonry and the Templars. Systems based on polytheism will collapse. These secret communities are helping systems based on polytheism to collapse now. Let me say that quite openly. But they support a system on the path of the Mahdi with all their might so it can prevail. We will see these things in time, insha'Allah.
