It is important to approach Muslims with compassion, no matter what. Because if you choose to get angry with them instead, you’d have to cut ties with almost ninety per cent of them. For instance, you call ISIS terrorists, and while we are vehemently against their ways, most Muslims in Afghanistan, Pakistan and India share the same views as ISIS: It is because they were raised that way. That is why we should try to save them, approach them with compassion, instead of severing ties with them.
God has absolute power and we are His humble servants in need. All power belongs to Almighty God and whatever Almighty God ordains in destiny, it happens. We are His servants in complete submission to Him and everything we do is done with the power God has given us.

In Islam, it is wrong to be averse to Jews. Surely, one can feel resentment towards those individuals who have committed sins or those who have oppressed people. In that case, those individuals should be held accountable through the legal system. But blaming the entire Israeli people, that is forbidden. It is not Islamic.

There is no hatred for Jews and Christians in Islam. On the contrary, they are protected as the People of Book in the Qur'an. A Muslim cannot have any aversion neither to them, nor to their places of worship. God tells us in the Qur'an that Muslims may marry Jewish and Christian ladies; indeed, some of the wives of our Prophet (saas) were Jewish and Christian.

It is important that sincere, honest, modern -thinking pious people are at the forefront in all aspects of life. It is because such people are a guarantees for everyone: Christians, Jews, atheists: Those people fear God and won’t do anything that is not in good conscience. This is a great guarantee for everyone.

A believer should always be in good spirits, full of life. If they feel down, sad or distressed about something, or they're bothered by something, the body will want to sleep to get rid of that feeling. But if one is happy, the body wouldn't want sleep, it would want to get up and live life instead.

The disintegration of Turkey would mean the ruin of the Islamic world. It wouldn’t be like another country being broken into pieces; that is because Turkey is the brain of the Turkish world. The death of Turkey would mean the death of the Islamic world. She is the brain of the Islamic world. The death of Turkey would mean the ruination of the Islamic world.

If you told those [who are weak in faith] to remain sleepless for the sake of God, to serve Islam, they wouldn't do that; but if you told them that they would win a car if they waited standing up for days without any sleep, they would do it without hesitation. This shows the tendency of the inner self to assume an animalistic, dishonorable, low character.

If one allows his lower self to take control, the lower self will start acting like an animal; it will act primitively like one.

The human body tends to behave like an animal when left to its own devices; it will just want to eat and sleep, it will easily get scared and act selfishly. One should balance out that animalistic side by means of faith. One shouldn't allow oneself to act like an animal.

The Companions of our Prophet (saas) always strove for the sake of God. But the hypocrites always had excuses like ‘our houses are exposed' or ‘we would have come if we knew how’. However, if they were told that they would be given gold, they would have immediately obliged. That is because it would have served their interests. However, one's interests should always be in showing good morality; one should choose faith and reward from God instead of gold. Otherwise one would start to turn into an animal.

In their twisted minds, the hypocrites do not respect Muslims but feel an incredible respect for unbelievers and hold them in high esteem.

Although the Qur'an is very easy to understand, it offers incredible wisdom.

An insincere person will try to see Muslims as bad people and unbelievers as good people; he begins to turn everything upside down in his mind. But when a Muslim sees the existence of God with all its glory, which happens naturally when a person looks around himself sincerely, he will immediately want to follow the wisdom in the Qur'an.

If a person is insincere, he will want the life of the unbelievers. On the Internet, in books, everywhere he looks, he will search for that kind of life. He will look around to find unbelievers because he admires them. He won’t be able to forget about his past, or his unbeliever friends. He will try to be happy with them.

When a person is sincere, he will immediately realize the existence of a Creator; he will realize the existence of God. But if he chooses to be insincere, he will always seek the darkest paths, the darkest ways to deny the existence of God.

Anger, hatred, lack of love and compassion, selfishness, cruelty; these feelings blacken the eyes, blacken the words spoken. Once ensnared by such feelings, that person will lose the ability to talk sensibly. Observe carefully the language of those that refuse love. They just can’t make sensible sentences.

When love touches the eyes, eyes will become more beautiful and begin to look more deeply. When love touches the tongue, every sentence uttered will be more articulate and wise. When it touches the vocal cords, the voice will sound more pleasant. When it lands on the skin, the skin will find love and begin to glow. In other words, love will beautify a person in every single way.

If you invite love, it will come at that instant and is very easy to attain. As soon as it arrives, it settles in the heart, in the brain. And love loves humans because it loves God. When it finds its way to the brain, brain will find relief. When it reaches the heart, heart will burst with joy. Love broadens the horizons.

As soon as one ushers in love, it will come. It’s waiting right outside the door. Just say “love, come to me," and it will come instantly to fill your heart. It is ready to serve your soul. Because it’s the way God created it. But people keep it waiting at the door and don't let it in. Instead, they usher in animosity, hostility, coldness, skepticism, cruelty, sarcasm, tactlessness and rudeness and keep love waiting at their door.

Love is presented as a luxury, something that is not actually necessary in this life. This is what Satan has preached for centuries. As a result, people today wrongly believe that love is very difficult to attain. Actually it is ingrained in us. Love is a need just like food.
