Satan wants to drown people in details in order to alienate them from prayer. Bigots complicate prayer by listing thousands of things that will render the prayer invalid; however, performing prayer is quite easy. That is why God did not go into detail in the Qur'an regarding prayer; He only mentions ruqu [bowing down], sujud [prostration] and qiyam [standing up]. Perform your prayer and leave: That is it.
Where there are women, no quarrels, no tensions exist; only kindness. And usually there is rudeness where there are no women. People assume a polite attitude in the company of women, even if there is a single woman [present]. Women bring politeness, kindness wherever they go.

People who [figuratively] step into the living cell feel as if they've just stepped into the city of Istanbul. It is that extensive. You could realize the existence of God from even a single cell.

Stalinism cannot exist without a state. A proletarian dictatorship is an indispensable characteristic of Stalinism. No one would adopt the Stalinist mentality otherwise. In other words, it would be pointless to become a communist. Why do people establish parties? In order to constitute a state.

They aim for a benumbed, insentient youth instead of an energetic, vigorous one. Through the traditionalist Orthodox Islamic mentality, they want people’s brains and souls to decay; they are corrupting their nature and trying to turn them into misogynists. They are destroying the [idea of] feminine beauty. And this is how they sneakily devastated the Middle East. People should not fall in to this trap.

One of the evil methods employed in the plan to devastate the Middle East is to eliminate the power of the mind by corrupting human nature and benumbing the mind through the traditionalist Orthodox Islamic conception. The minds of people are being ruined, are decaying, so to speak; the souls, the minds of people are decaying and you witness the misery and desolation this leads to.

The traditionalist Orthodox Islamic conception removes people’s vitality and paralyzes their minds. Societies that suffer constant oppression emerge as a result of this.

God says, "No one despairs of solace from God except for people who are disbelievers." It is quite abnormal to lose hope that people will become better. Advising such people and putting them on the right path is what should be strived for.

A mentality that is devoid of productivity, technology, creativity, art and aesthetics, that is only consuming and freeloading is spreading like wildfire among some teenagers. Measures should be taken against this by introducing a class on national consciousness in schools.

Teenagers waste their times on pointless TV programs. This is a dangerous culture that numbs their minds. The new generation should be raised being deeply aware of our national values and culture.

We should popularize love. For one thing, if teachers talk about love to their students in schools, it will cheer children up. If class teachers say to their students, "Children, love each other, become friends, and become brothers. Love is very beautiful. The whole of humanity needs love", children will not forget that for the rest of their lives. We ask for all the teachers to do this. We ask that all around Turkey, that they talk about just one word: love.

According to the hadiths, Jesus Messiah (pbuh) and the Mahdi (as) will meet each other at a prayer time. Jesus Messiah will say to the Mahdi, "You be the imam [leader], you make us perform the prayer", and from that moment on ,the Mahdi will be the leader of the whole world.

The idea that Christians regard the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) as God –God is surely beyond that- is alienating many Christian youth from religion. They should abolish this superstitious belief. If they say that "Jesus Messiah is the prophet of God", the whole world would become Christians but it is wrong to say "Jesus is God." This is the reason why a substantial part of the European population became disbelievers.

Being an atheist means being honest. They bravely, honestly say, "I do not believe in God, I do not believe in religion. If there is a person who can convince me otherwise, let's talk as if I will believe I want it to be sincere." But dishonesty, hypocrisy is horrible.

In this world the trial we are living is a seemingly one; actually, in the esoteric sense, we are being educated, this world is a course. Because God already knows what we will do. He is the One Who created us. In other words, God knows what we will do since eternally before. We have already been here and done that. The point of this trial is to train us, to show us our true selves. God makes us face our true selves. In other words, He makes us love ourselves. He is preparing us for the afterlife.

It is quite natural for a Muslim to make a mistake. People should not be afraid of making mistakes. Even if it is a big mistake, it can be solved by giving advice. But reacting angrily to advice is not normal. You could say, "Okay, I will consider this. May God bless you. I will try my best." That's it. But angry overreaction to advice is abnormal behavior.

Of course, a believer should be open to advice. A Muslim might make a mistake, there is nothing wrong with this but he should always pay heed to advice of others: In other words, a Muslim shouldn't be arrogant, disrespectful and snobbish, right? Even though he won't follow the advice, he should politely listen to it within the limits of the Qur'an and say, "I will try hard to do so."

Some people suspect others of being hypocrites. Let's assume that they are hypocrites; then educate them, communicate with them, talk to them through the verses of the Qur'an, be patient with them, right? Otherwise, people would not want to talk to each other, no Muslim would want to see or speak to another Muslim. If you start accusing people of being hypocrites, disbelievers or sick, there will be no one left to talk to.

There is a guardianship system among believers. No believer has the authority to expel a person from among the believers by accusing someone of being a hypocrite. This can only be done through a revelation from God.

People occasionally ask me, "One of our friends is a hypocrites; what should we do?" How are you so sure? Maybe the person who you believe to be a hypocrite will go to Heaven and you will go to Hell. Did you split his chest open and looked at his heart? Even the prophets cannot make such a judgment, so how can you? They make such judgments only based on revelations. Even when people act openly in displaying their hypocrisy, the prophets try to put them on the right path rather than expelling them.

But if you try to win atheists, disbelievers, those against Islam over, then you should try even harder to win over the Muslims who have a sickness in their hearts and weaker faiths. You can easily commune with such people as they are already among you. No matter how abnormal they may behave, how ill-tempered they are, the merit, the reward of trying to win such people over are greater.
