ADNAN OKTAR’S LIVE INTERVIEW ON EKIN TV
(12 January 2009)
ADNAN OKTAR: The reason for Muslims’ sufferings in the End Times stems from the fact they do not know about the End Times or what they need to do in the End Times. Our Prophet (saas) tells us of the cure for that disease. There is a disease and there is medicine, but Muslims are not taking the medicine. I am describing what the medicine is. They are avoiding the medicine. If they refuse to take the medicine the sickness will continue, and they will continue suffering. Has not enough Muslim blood been shed? Is the bloodshed in Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine not enough? Muslims must now come together. Let us establish the Turkish-Islamic Union. The Turkic states are captive. China is horribly oppressing East Turkestan, for example, our brothers. They are Muslims, our devout, pure and spotless Turkish brothers. They are innocent people. Young girls and children there are in a terrible state. But nobody knows about it. Who knows what is going on in East Turkestan?
REPORTER: Nobody.
ADNAN OKTAR: They do not know. A whole country…
REPORTER: Nobody knows about East Turkestan.
ADNAN OKTAR: And what a terrible thing that is. Who knows about the secret slaughter there, the people who disappear, the unsolved killings, the people taken away from their homes in the middle of the night and never heard of again?
REPORTER: Nobody.
ADNAN OKTAR: Look, the answer to all these things is the Turkish-Islamic Union. That is a human debt for everyone, even if they are irreligious. If it is an obligation for a Muslim and a human debt for the irreligious, then it is a debt for all humanity.
ADNAN OKTAR’S APA NEWS AGENCY (AZERBAIJAN) INTERVIEW (ISTANBUL, 16 August 2008)
ADNAN OKTAR: The time that passes without the Turkish-Islamic Union will be one full of hardships. There is no other alternative. We see that in the Caucasus and in other regions. We are still seeing it now. There will be no end to it, the bloodshed will not cease. The only solution is the Turkish-Islamic Union. Any delay will leave people living under a scourge. That is why we, the Turkish nation, must strive to build this union as a matter of urgency, to bring Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkey, East Turkey and all the Turkic states together. Every day that passes works against us, may Allah forbid. Look, the reason for the bloodshed in Georgia today, the troubles in Abkhazia, the hardships facing the Russians and the rest is that there is no Turkish-Islamic Union.
ADNAN OKTAR'S ABU DHABI TV INTERVIEW
(19 February 2009)
ADNAN OKTAR: These incidents are continuing because Muslims are not looking to adopt the solution. The answer is for all Muslims to be as one. That is a religious obligation, Allah’s command. Like praying or fasting, it is a religious obligation. If a person does not pray he is in a state of sin. The best solution is a Turkish-Islamic Union under Turkish leadership and with the support of the Turkic states. The reason for regarding the Turkish nation as the leader is that it is a morally and heroically a very powerful and metaphysical one. And has a special task. The Turkish nation is the sword of Allah. By sword, I do not mean it goes around and cuts people up. It is the sword of justice. And the Turkish nation possesses the experience and strength to perform this role of leader with that justice, moral virtue, love, compassion, honesty and friendship. It has the experience of hundreds or thousands of years. It ruled the Islamic countries on three continents in peace and happiness, with very little effort. That same structure needs to be rebuilt today. The Turkish-Islamic Union needs to be built, like a modern Ottoman Empire. Christians, Jews, Buddhists and even atheists will be at ease in such an institution. The whole Muslim world will live at peace.
