Turkey should become a modern, high quality country as soon as possible. You know how modern the villages and towns of Norway, Sweden and Denmark are, right? We should achieve a much higher level of civilization than these countries ever did.

 - 
Hypocrites feel as if their souls burn and suffer when they feel they are becoming more like Muslims. Thus, they try to inspire their evil natures by committing indecent, treacherous deeds, by keeping in touch with disbelievers, or by hatching insidious plots against Muslims.
 (A9 TV; February 9th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Hypocrites find comfort in tapping into their evil sides. They feel obliged to commit vile, secret, dishonest deeds, to hatch sinister plots; their souls can find no rest otherwise.
 (A9 TV; February 9th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Hypocrites are impudent and dishonest people. No matter how often you warn them to be honest, to be transparent, they will only adhere to their villainous ways. They will continue their secret activities. It is a manic illness that afflicts the hypocrites.

 - 
We are a modern, high quality nation of the Middle East. Those who attempt to destroy us would be attempting to destroy the world and this is impossible, by the will of God.

 - 
The YPG is a communist, Stalinist, godless and atheist organization. Kurdish people are different as they are dignified; they fear God and they love God. The noble people of high moral standing are called Kurds. On the other hand, the YPG is simply an alias for the PKK.

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Strengthening local governance merely plays into the hands of the PKK. What happens when you extend the jurisdiction of the municipalities? Some of them become the fortresses of the PKK: It does not provide you any benefit other than that. That is what they seek.

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Fiercely defending one's own desires is a mental illness. One should get a grip on himself in this situation and take refuge in God. He should ask himself, "How did I turn into such an abnormal person?" He should listen to what others have to say in a reasonable manner. A Muslim is open to 'al-amr bi-l-maʿrūf wa-n-nahy ʿani-l-munkar' (enjoining what is right and forbidding what is wrong). Therefore, he becomes wiser with ease.

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Those who have a sickness in their hearts are proud, egocentric and arrogant. They regard the sense of superiority as a precious form of worship. However, they are not aware of the fact that they are doing it under the influence of satan. They cannot realize their evil actions.
 (A9 TV; February 7th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Satan specifically identifies and attacks those people with sickness in their hearts. Should these people forsake God, then they are unaware of this. The influence of satan envelops them like a layer of iron and satan will never release his hold on them again. He has a strong grip on their souls.
 (A9 TV; February 7th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Hypocrites profess to be superior in this world. They become spoiled and go astray; however in the afterlife, in the Presence of God, they will have no strength left in them to act like a snob, a know-it-all, a pseudo-intellectual, a sneak.
 (A9 TV; February 7th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Occasionally, Muslims with a sickness in their hearts might act like a hypocrite. They are not hypocrites per se, but they have a sickness in their hearts; God informs us of this in a verse of the Qur'an, saying, "They have sickness in their hearts." They act in the exact manner of a hypocrite. This is a phase they are going through. Sometimes they recover from it, and sometimes they succumb to the disease that is hypocrisy.
 (A9 TV; February 7th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Secrecy is the primary weapon of a hypocrite. His primary weapon becomes neutralized if his characteristics and his activities can be exposed.
 (A9 TV; February 7th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
The more our Prophet (pbuh) suffered ordeals, the more beautiful he became. Suffering turned the Prophet Joseph (pbuh) into the most beautiful person in the world; he led a life full of anguish yet he was exceptionally beautiful. The Prophet Moses (pbuh) suffered throughout his life but he was incredibly handsome, the most handsome man of his tribe.
 (A9 TV; February 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Hypocrites deem general culture important, wish to learn about everything and hate religion. The only thing that irritates them is religion, Islam.
 (A9 TV; February 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
In the era of Our Prophet (pbuh), the then- hypocrites pretended to be wiser than Our Prophet; as they believed themselves to be supposedly wiser, they talked in a patronizing manner. Hypocrites are insolent and disrespectful.
 (A9 TV; February 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Our Prophet (pbuh) says in the hadith, "Most of the hypocrites in my community are from among well-educated people." Knowledge leads them astray and into a desire to be apart from Muslims. Feeling a sense of superiority, hypocrites seek to abandon Muslims, thinking, "I am wiser and smarter."
 (A9 TV; February 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
The hypocrite has an innate desire to leave. In his book 'Ihya' ulum al-din', Imam al-Ghazzali states, "The hypocrite inside a mosque is like a bird inside a cage. When the door of the cage is opened, the bird flies away."
 (A9 TV; February 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Muslims look forward to the hypocrite leaving them in peace but as soon as he leaves, another one comes along. The hypocrite is a necessity and is significant for worship. It is just that people should know the Qur'an method well to be able to deal with them effectively.
 (A9 TV; February 6th, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
It is dangerous to let your guard down against the hypocrite threat. People must be ever-vigilant against hypocrites because a hypocrite is like sticky tar. The moment you get rid of one of them, another one appears. There is no Muslim community that is free from hypocrites.
