Ataturk was an exemplary person with his modernity, smartness, courtesy and enlightened devoutness. It was bigotry that Ataturk was in opposition to.

The Assembly of Sheikhs (Meclis-i Meşayih) founded in Sultan Abdulaziz's time in order to support religious groups was used to oppress Muslims in Sultan Abdul Hamid II’s era.

Shia are pure Muslims. We would never support any movement that is disfavorable for them. We want them all to be in goodness since we are all brothers. Any conflict between Shia and Sunni communities would only benefit the British Deep State. Muslims will have great power once Iran, Turkey and Pakistan ally.

The Greater Middle East Project is an initiative to disintegrate the Islamic world to prevent the unity of the Islamic world, that is to say, the way of the Mahdi.

 - 
God removes obstacles before the Mahdi's movement and all false Mahdi movements will be offset. The way of the Mahdi grows even more in face of all attempts of hindrance.

 - 
Muslims are meticulous and reverent on topics related to religion and faith. Making jokes on religious topics is not proper.

Some claim there is a lot of time until the Mahdi's appearance, but they do not ever mention hadiths of the Prophet (pbuh) on lifespan of the world. Hadiths by Al-Suyuti state that the lifespan of the world is 7,000 years, and 5,600 of that has already passed. Thus, the Mahdi has already come this century. Those who deny the coming of the Mahdi should also deny that solar and lunar eclipses took place in 15-day intervals which is foretold in the hadith. They can't deny it as this event has already occurred. In a similar way they should also deny the war in Syria, the bloodshed in the Ka'aba [in 1979], the invasion of Iraq or the appearance of the two-horned comet all of which have taken place and they can't do so. Hundreds of signs have already taken place in the last 35 years as portents of the Mahdi's arrival. Those  who oppose the coming of the Mahdi hide away these truths. Nobody could ever stop the movement of the Mahdi. The way of the Mahdi is a truth as a part of destiny.

Bigots hold a terribly ignoble viewpoint of women. They claim whatever women say should be opposed and if necessary they should be beaten.

Problems may never be resolved from their grassroots unless moral degeneration is ended. There should be an educational system which will be the means to sincere faith.

What should be done first is to stop the moral degeneration. That is only possible by terminating the one-sided Darwinist education.

Muslims are the spirit of God. They are all "Ruh al-Allah" [Spirit of God]. Both this world and the hereafter belong to Muslims. Believers bear God's spirit.

What they mean with an Open Society model is the concept introduced by George Soros. Its purpose is to oppress Muslims and weaken them. The ploys they scheme against Muslims for constraining them in the name of openness and giving transparency are displeasing and improper.

The British Deep State infiltrates  religious groups and mosques by way of its informers with the intention of holding Muslims under control. Many sycophants who lack dignity and character are looking for personal gain from the British Deep State and become part of that system.

Sultan Abdulaziz was a very enlightened person. The musical composition "Invitation to the Waltz" is one of his greatest pieces. The majority of youth are not aware of these aspects of him.

Both performing prayers and fasting is the expression of the lover to his Love.

Performing regular prayers is our way of expressing our love for God. God is pleased with our love for Him, and we are delighted with God's love.

The Mahdi is mentioned in the Qur'an: "Follow those who do not ask you for any wage and who have received guidance. (MUHTADUN –plural for Mahdi in Arabic)" (Surah Ya Sin 21) All the prophets, including the Prophets Abraham, Jacob and Moses, have anticipated the Mahdi. They all have awaited the Mahdi in fervor and eagerness.
 (A9 TV; October 2nd, 2016)

Adnan Oktar
 - 
Throughout the history of Islam, there is no other era in which people have been in such extensive denial of the Mahdi as today. This is sign of the Mahdi's appearance. Belief in the Mahdi is found in all faiths, including the distorted ones. This is another evidence that the Mahdi's coming is truthful and authentic.
