Why did Allah overthrow the Ottoman Empire? Allah overthrew the Empire because the majority of the public stood against arts, aesthetics and science. The state was not against it but the majority of the public was. The state had palaces constructed, they decorated fountains but the great majority of the public were against science and arts. Bigoted mindset infested all around. Allah overthrew the Ottomans for that reason.

 - 
Some people do not think why Allah did not let Islam prevail the world until now. Why did Allah let Islam prevail the world in the time of the Prophet Solomon (pbuh)? Because the Prophet Solomon (pbuh) was very cheerful, very extroverted and he attached great importance to arts and science. When there is a magnificent system, Allah lets Islam prevail the world. Allah does not let misery prevail the world.

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Some of our brothers imagine that Allah wants poverty and misery. Allah delays the global dominion of Islam because of that reason, because they do not give up this mindset.

 - 
Islam will prevail in the world once more with arts and science in the forefront. Only then Allah gives way to that, otherwise He does not.

The portents of the Last Day started to be seen intensely after the year 1980. The first major sign of the Last Day is the Mahdi (pbuh), the appearance of the Mahdi and the descent of the Jesus Messiah (pbuh), the appearance of Yajuj and Majuj, of Dabbat Al-Ardh and the Smoke.

Even if the Last Day is to come tomorrow, we are charged with serving Islam.

 - 
When there is a weakness in faith, Allah scorches the world and does not give happiness. That was the reason for the collapse of the Ottomans, that was also the reason for the collapse of Seljuk Sultanate. When a bigoted structure develops, when a conservative structure develops, when arts, science, love decreases, when people become estranged from the spirit of the Qur'an, disasters assuredly follows.
 (A9 TV; December 22nd, 2012)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Why did Allah have the Ottoman Empire established? Because they were very painstakingly following the Qur'an. There was no bigotry and they were full of love. Why did Allah give the Prophet Solomon (pbuh) a global dominion? Because in his time arts, aesthetics, science and love pervaded everywhere. People should think hard about this collapse and re-establishment.

Allah would not wrong His servants. Allah would not want Muslims to live in pain. Allah would not want women to live in pain. Allah loves women. Allah created them to be loved, not to be oppressed.
 (A9 TV; December 22nd, 2012)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
They do not let women touch the Qur'an, they do not let them perform their prayers, they do not let them go out.. Stop oppressing women! You are to show love and respect to women, you are to treat them kindly. Just like you are, women are free as well.

Alawites are people who are madly in love with Allah, they are carried away with the love of Allah.  They love human beings, they love animals, they love plants. Haji Bektash has a picture with a lion and a gazelle on his lap; that picture signifies love.
 (A9 TV; December 22nd, 2012)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Alawites are against bigotry, they are brave and courageous people. If they attempt to harm even a single strand of hair of our Alawite brothers, we would have the heaven and earth collapse around them. We will not let anyone act as psychopaths.

 - 
Alawism means feeling love for Hazrat Ali (ra). Those who do not love Hazrat Ali (ra) cannot be named as Muslims anyway. Those who do not love Ahl al-Bayt cannot be named as Muslims. Such people do not have faith or any religious belief.

Our Master, His Highness Said Nursi was Kurdish and we are proud about his being Kurdish. His Highness Mawlana Halid was Kurdish and we are proud about his being Kurdish. Salah ad-Din Ayyub was Kurdish, we are proud about his being Kurdish. A great portion of the ulamas, great scholars, a great portion of the Islamic Scholars are all Kurdish. Kurdish people are very blessed people, they are a blessed community.

The Last Day was supposed to come but the angels that will bring the Last Day have returned. That is because Mahdi (pbuh) and the system of the Mahdi are on the agenda. What does our Prophet (saas) say? "Even if we have one single day, one single moment, one hour, one minute left till the Last Day, Mohammad Mahdi (pbuh) from my sons will come," says our Prophet (saas). He says; "Allah will postpone that day. The Last Day will be postponed."
 (A9 TV; December 21st, 2012)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
The Last Day has been postponed. And people are not aware of this. The Last Day has been postponed with Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) being instrumental. Because people talk about the system of the Mahdi, because people talk about the Mahdi (pbuh), because Mahdi (pbuh) is actively on his mission, because the students of the Mahdi are actively on their missions, because the system of the Mahdi is being invoked intensely; the angels bringing the Last Day have returned with the command of Allah.
 (A9 TV; December 21st, 2012)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
For the sake of Mahdi (pbuh), the Last Day has been postponed. Some people thought that it was postponed randomly. That is not the case. It has been postponed for the Mahdi (pbuh) for the sake of Hazrat Mahdi(pbuh), insha'Allah.

When the Unity of Islam is established, Turkey would not be turning her back to Europe, on the contrary she will embrace Europe; they will be one within the other. Turkey will have a more sophisticated culture, a high quality understanding of arts, a more beautiful understanding of freedom and democracy. Consequently Turkey and the Islamic world will possess a structure that Europe will envy. In such a structure, Europe and Turkey would of course embrace each other and would of course be one within the other.
