If you abide by the Qur'an you cannot say that music is unlawful, you cannot say that paintings, sculptures, having fun and laughing are unlawful; but if you are in a radical conservative system, music, paintings and sculptures are all unlawful.
It is not possible to preach religion in the southeast of Turkey, it is not possible to distribute books. We are able to distribute our books as we like in Russia; we are able to organize fossil exhibitions. That is possible even in North Korea but not in the southeast of Turkey.

Getting spoiled, running riot and showing off is one within the other. They are showing off and putting on an act for wretched people. You are a wretched being and so are those you put on a show for. You will all die one day, so pull yourself together. At the end of the day, you are made up of flesh and bones. What if you put on a dress? What if you have a state -of -the -art computer? What if you have a nice phone? You will die because you are made up of flesh and bone; they will bury you in your grave and your body will decompose. Why do you get spoiled and run riot then? Why do you show off?

You will die eventually and so will those you put on a show for. What is it that you show off? A few clothes, a few accessories, maybe a car, maybe a phone. Well my brother, you will leave all those behind when you go to your grave. Your iPhone will be left on your desk, so will your laptop and you will be buried under the ground with merely a burial robe.

Muslims should refrain from falling into disputes and quarreling among themselves. Before all else God deems that unlawful. "Obey God and His Messenger and do not quarrel among yourselves lest you lose heart and your momentum disappear. And be steadfast. God is with the steadfast. " (Surat Al-Anfal, 46) Yet God says that He will punish such acts in this world as well. God says firstly that they will lose heart and that their momentum would disappear. God says that these will happen to those who quarrel among themselves as a preliminary trouble; they lose heart and lose their momentum. So what should a Muslim do in such a situation? He will be steadfast. God protects and watches over those who are steadfast.

If one does not know Christianity, Judaism and Islam, that means he does not have a sufficient level of general culture. One should know communism, fascism, Darwinism, materialism: All these philosophies should be taught to our youth in religion courses.

Youth should be taught about Islam, Christianity and Judaism comprehensively as a part of general culture. Religion is the main philosophy ruling the world we are living in.

Democracy and freedom of thought is something that should be established all around. People should be able to voice and declare their opinions as they like. Cracking open someone's head, causing a scene, screaming all over the place; these acts are barbarity. Animals behave like that. People communicate by talking, they communicate by voicing their opinions. If the person you are talking to is not persuaded by your opinion, then you must simply respect him. One should respect everyone's opinions, everyone's faith.

It would not be acceptable if they try to present the war the PKK is waging as an arbitrary war. The reason behind the attacks of the PKK is to establish an independent state in the southeast of Turkey as they have explicitly stated many times.

In the near future, Muslims will forge an alliance with Christians. Christians will embrace the belief in the Oneness of God. So Christianity will turn into Muslim Christianity.

Miraculously, unbelievers are crushed considerably. They are constantly being crushed yet they fail to understand why. God causes a tightness in their hearts and they fail to understand why. They assume that all those things happen by coincidence. How could all those be coincidences? Why don't you use your mind? Every single day you are having trouble, every single day you are hurting.

If Muslims use their minds correctly, if they put their trust in God and love God as is due, there would be no fear and sadness for them. They would never feel fear. They would never feel any distress. But that is on the condition that they love God as He wants to be loved, that they put their trust in God as He wants them to do.

Women are very beautiful beings. They are the ornaments of this world. The world should attach great importance to women. If one is unable to appreciate the value of women, if he is unable to see such a beauty, the eye in his heart is blind.

What did Ataturk do? He turned religion into its original form. He assumed an attitude against radicalism: We are able to talk in comfort right now because of that. Without Ataturk, Turkey would have been no different from Syria or Iraq; it would have been far worse.

Satan complicates religion and people thus keep aloof from religion. They transformed Islam into the most terrifying religion in the world right now. They misrepresent it as a system that kills all life, that removes all aesthetics, all the beautiful aspects of life, as a system that demands terror, that demands bloodshed and that ruins life. The fact is however, Almighty God says, " God desires ease for you; He does not desire difficulty for you." And He says " God has selected you and not placed any constraint upon you in the religion —as in the religion of your forefather Abraham."

Radicals consider the commands of God in the Book He sent as insufficient. For instance, salat (prayers) is explained in the Qur'an yet they see it as insufficient and try to add things to it. Fasting for instance; they look at the Qur'an and see it as insufficient. They try to add things to it. They try to add things to every other religious act. But if there is something that is in conflict with their own interests, then they try to subtract things from those commands. They say, "This verse has been nullified, the command of this verse has been lifted".

One has a mistake or a flawed aspect in his personality, he confesses to it yet still goes on to act on it. Alright, you might have a flaw, but you need to fight it and get rid of it. One keeps on saying, "I am ignorant, I wouldn't know." Well, increase your knowledge then. One says, "I have a jealous personality." Well, remove that jealousy and educate yourself. Or one says that he has cowardice. Be brave then.

The Turkish people would never give way to anything that would divide Turkey. Separation is one point that the Turkish people are most sensitive about. This is the reason why our soldiers and our policemen gave their lives and became martyrs.

I am the one in Turkey who protects and loves the Shias dearly. I believe that they are perfect Muslims: I consider them as Muslims deeply in love with the Mahdi (pbuh). I love Wahhabis dearly. For instance many Muslims hate them, they consider them as irreligious. I see them as devout Muslims. I see Shias as devout Muslims as well..

They cannot deal with ISIS using violence. The struggle against ISIS should definitely be with opinions, with love and with the system of the Mahdi. It would not be possible any other way.
