Hagia Sophia will be opened but it will be in the time of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). The opening of Hagia Sophia, Hazrat Mahdi's girding himself with our Prophet's (saas) sword and cardigan; they will all take place at the same time. Nothing of that sort will happen before that, insha'Allah.

Mahdi (pbuh) is covered with 70 different veils. They will never be able to go beyond the first or the second veil. They won't be able to see and say; "Is that the Mahdi(pbuh)?" They are continuously looking for the Mahdi in the world. They won't be able to find him; all their efforts are in vain. And they cannot stop him.

Very nice facilities can be built in schools for youth. They need to be encouraged about sports and sports should be made obligatory in a way. If you leave one to his own means, doing sports might be very difficult.
 (A9 TV; November 23rd, 2013)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Actually sport activities should be obligatory. In order to bring about a fit youth, there should be one hour, one and a half hour sports lesson each day, or at least every other day. The important thing is to make the youth spiritually and physically healthy and sound.

Bediuzzaman says; "Overdoing anything would be extravagancy." Meaning it would be excessive. "But overdoing "keeping in contact with each other" is perfection." Keeping in contact means seeing each other, having discourses, making contact and overdoing these is perfection, he says. Muslims should overdo in keeping contact, insha'Allah. They should meet each other frequently.

 - 
There is richness in discourses. Companions of our Prophet (saas) have reached maturity through the discourses of our Prophet (saas). Even if they participate the discourse of our Prophet (saas) only for ten minutes, they would attain maturity. Richness comes with discourse. And praying during discourses is one of the most beautiful blessings. Their hearts would be nurtured with that prayer.

Lack of quality is virtually swallowing people, it is ruining them underhandedly. For instance lack of quality that wreaked havoc in the Middle East, ruined Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia and Algeria and is now attacking people in Turkey.

Adnan Oktar
 - 
God enables people to benefit from getting used to certain things in one respect; it might be a characteristic given in order to protect people from being ruined by the fear of God. It enables people to be calmer. I mean it is like a tranquilizer for people. Getting used to certain facts is like psychological tranquilizer.
 (A9 TV; November 23rd, 2013)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
One needs to pray to God to be protected against familiarity in that sense, saying; "My Lord, please protect me from getting used to miraculous events. Make the impact of this wonderful knowledge rule over my heart and my soul. Protect me from ruining this valuable information which conduces my faith, by getting used to it"
 (A9 TV; November 23rd, 2013)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Getting used to wonderful incidents is a disaster. For instance one hears about the miracles of our Prophet (saas), his eyes get filled with tears, he feels astonished. And then familiarity swallows him in an instant. People have a tendency towards getting used to everything. One needs to resist that.
 (A9 TV; November 23rd, 2013)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Getting used to important facts and wonders is very dangerous. That is one of the points a Muslim should work on the most. For instance one studies the structure of the cell and feels out of breath. But an intense wave of familiarity at the back of his mind would constantly suck that knowledge. It constantly suppresses that amazing information.

There will not be a big earthquake in Istanbul, until Hijri 1506. There might be minor quakes but a destructive earthquakes will not take place until 1506, insha'Allah.

The system of the Mahdi is the way to enter the European Union as well. The spirit of the Mahdi, love of the system of the Mahdi, compassion of the system of the Mahdi, sincerity of the system of the Mahdi, its approach toward democracy, arts and science are ideal for the European Union. It is crucial for Christian-Muslim alliance.

The body recognizes faith. Body and cells love faith. Cells feel happy with faith. Only with faith cells start living as is due, only then they start living healthy. They do not become ill. Otherwise cells fall ill.
 (A9 TV; November 20th, 2013)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Faith causes physical changes on face. Actually physical attributes do not change, so there is something extraordinary in this. It can explicitly be noticed, it can be recognized from the outside. That means faith is recognized by the cells.

Adnan Oktar
 - 
In uneducated people there is a strong tendency towards violence and vandalism; it is very easy for them to ravage things. It is very easy for them to fall in disbelief. It is very easy for them to be irreligious. But being religious requires having good morals, being sensible and strong-willed; it requires patience, self-sacrifice and profundity. It is not easy. That is why communist way of thinking develops very easily among them.
 (A9 TV; November 17th, 2013)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Being based on a very strong belief system is a specialty of the system of the Mahdi. That is the reason why it is invincible. Policy should be installed upon a very strong basis of faith. Strong political maneuvers are of no value. Systems based on strong political maneuvers are bound to be destroyed, they definitely fail. This should not be forgotten.
 (A9 TV; November 17th, 2013)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Plans should be made by taking how Turkey and the rest of the region will be in thirty years' time into consideration. If a system is not founded on a strong belief, but only on successful political maneuvers, those successful political maneuvers might turn upside down in a while.

Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will be righteous and trustworthy. He will not conceal the things he knows. He will explain the truths with his books, with his CD's.
 (A9 TV; November 15th, 2013)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
In the time of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh), a search will be conducted underneath the Kaaba. We will find remains dating ten thousand, fifteen thousand, twenty thousand years back. We will find remains from those periods. We will see that even in those periods people had belief in one God.
