OKTAR BABUNA: The stopping of the waters in 1975 is described in the hadith, and that has also come about. The occupation of Afghanistan in 1979 also happened, insha'Allah. And these happened for the first time in the year 1400 (Islamic calendar).
ADNAN OKTAR: In the hadith our Prophet (saas) says that all this will happen en masse in the time of Hazrat Mahdi (as), one after the other. And they have happened one by one with a mathematical regularity.
OKTAR BABUNA: The attack on the Kaaba in 1979 and the shedding of blood at the Kaaba.
ADNAN OKTAR: That was the first time in 1400 years, the first time the Hajj (pilgrimage) was prevented in 1400 years.
OKTAR BABUNA: The Iran-Iraq War in 1980. The sky being hidden by fire and smoke. You know that the largest tanker in the world, the Independenta, exploded and burned in Istanbul in 1979.
ADNAN OKTAR: Said Nursi says that events of this kind will happen in the End Times, in the former capital of the Islamic world. He says they have happened in places such as Basra, Kufe or Sham, but that those narrating the accounts said so in the light of the conditions of their own times, imagining that Barsa, or Kufe or Sham would remain the center of the Islamic world. Our Prophet (saas) says it will be in the center of the Islamic world. If it was Sham then, he says it will happen in Sham. Someone else says it will happen in Kufe. But the essence of the matter is the center of the Islamic world. And where was the former capital? Istanbul. For that reason, all events of this kind happen in Istanbul. But Said Nursi says that trivial matters are of no importance in the sight of our Prophet (saas). He says he would not hand them down if they were insignificant, only if they were important. So our Prophet (saas) tells us only what is important.
OKTAR BABUNA: Yes, insha'Allah. Eclipses of the Sun and Moon 15 days apart in the month of Ramadan. As you know, there were eclipses of the Sun and Moon, 15 days apart, during the month of Ramadan in two consecutive years, 1981 and 1982.
ADNAN OKTAR: They are now producing masons saying that these hadith are untrue. But they have taken place. The whole thing is over and done with. The truth is out. Yes, carry on.
OKTAR BABUNA: The appearance of a comet, the coming of Halley's comet in 1986, that also happened.
ADNAN OKTAR: Yes.
OKTAR BABUNA: There is also mention of a second comet, one with two tails, brighter than usual, travelling from west to east. In the opposite direction to all other comets. That also happened, with the comet Lulin.
ADNAN OKTAR: Yes, double tailed. That is most astonishing. Normally a comet appears, leaving its tail behind it. But there is another tail at the end of this one. And this tail is in the front, which is really amazing. This has also come about. It happened in the same way as the detailed description given by Imam Rabbani.
OKTAR BABUNA: A sign in the Sun. There were great solar explosions in 1996.
ADNAN OKTAR: The greatest sunbursts of the century.
OKTAR BABUNA: Then there was the greatest eclipse of the Sun in 1999. The invasion of Azerbaijan in 1996.
ADNAN OKTAR: You went a bit fast there, go back to the one before.
OKTAR BABUNA: A sign in the Sun.
ADNAN OKTAR: Then...
OKTAR BABUNA: An explosion in 1996 and a solar eclipse in 1999.
ADNAN OKTAR: We have already mentioned the solar and unar eclipses, but there was something else in the Sun, the greatest sunburst of this century. Yes, that is the real thing.
OKTAR BABUNA: Yes, insha'Allah. We are told of the invasion of Azerbaijan, and that happened in 1996. The hadith speak of a corruption of smoke and dust. And such a great corruption of smoke and dust, with buildings collapsing, happened on September 11, 2001.
ADNAN OKTAR: That smoke and dust were very powerful, were they not? There was dust and smoke for many kilometers.
OKTAR BABUNA: Insha'Allah. You remember seeing all those people on the television, walking in that pitch black smoke. There is the destruction of Baghdad, which was devastated by the heavy bombing in 2003. There is the Iraqis being left with no legitimate currency, and that happened with the American invasion, just as revealed in the hadith.
ADNAN OKTAR: Their currency disappeared at that time, didn't it? The newspaper wrote about it.
OKTAR BABUNA: Yes.
ADNAN OKTAR: Look at all the details provided by our Prophet (saas). They are all highly detailed, and have all come about one by one.
OKTAR BABUNA: Yes, masha'Allah. There is reference to an army vanishing in the desert. An Iraqi army of around 80,000 men vanished in the wake of the US invasion. Everyone witnessed that.
ADNAN OKTAR: The papers wrote about the Iraqi army vanishing in just a day.
OKTAR BABUNA: They said it disappeared, masha'Allah. The sanctions against Iraq and Sham, and that also happened just as described, masha'Allah
ADNAN OKTAR: That was a bit fast. Could you say that again?
OKTAR BABUNA: Sanctions against Iraq and Damascus.
ADNAN OKTAR: Yes, they applied sanctions against Iraq. That was during the war, wasn't it?
OKTAR BABUNA: Yes.
ADNAN OKTAR: They were also applied against Damascus, or Syria.
OKTAR BABUNA: Yes, insha'Allah. The reconstruction of Iraq. And after the invasion the reconstruction of the ruined cities began.
PRESENTER: Yes.
ADNAN OKTAR: Yes, and it is being done by Turkish firms, and by foreign firms. Reconstruction work in Iraq is still going on now. That is set out in the hadith and has also happened.
OKTAR BABUNA: "The people of Iraq fleeing to Damascus." And they really did flee the American invasion and bombing.
ADNAN OKTAR: yes, they fled to Syria, just like it says.
OKTAR BABUNA: "Iraq being divided into three," and that also happened. Following the American invasion, and just as described.
ADNAN OKTAR: There is the Shiite area, and the Sunni area and the Kurdish zone, isn't there? Yes, it has been divided.
OKTAR BABUNA: It has effectively been split into three. There is a reference to the confused situation in Syria. That also happened. And "conflict between the Tigris and the Euphrates." The PKK terror.
ADNAN OKTAR: Yes, the PKK terror.
PRESENTER: Yes.
OKTAR BABUNA: A lot of blood was really shed. "The destruction of cities." As you know, the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed by atom bombs in the Second World War.
ADNAN OKTAR: They were destroyed in a single moment. That is in the hadith, and is something very important. He speaks of the destruction of a city, and of cities, one after the other. They were destroyed one after the other, weren't they? In a matter of moments. That is another sign of this century.
OKTAR BABUNA: A sign, insha'Allah. "Fire being seen from the east." in 1991. Iraq had the Kuwaiti oil fields set on fire following the invasion in 1991, if you remember. A huge fire engulfed Kuwait and the Gulf of Basra, just as described.
ADNAN OKTAR: Yes, everywhere was on fire. We saw fire all over the place on the television. They set all the oil wells on fire. Yes.
OKTAR BABUNA: "The killing of the rulers of Sham and Egypt" is spoken of in the hadith. And that also came about. Because Egyptian head of state Anwar Sadat was killed in q981 and the Lebanese leader Beshir Jamayel in 1982.
ADNAN OKTAR: The leaders of those regions, the leaders of the regions of Sham and Egypt. Sham does not just mean the city of Damascus. Sham means a whole region, and its leaders were killed. Its most eminent leaders were killed.
OKTAR BABUNA: The killing of the former king of Jordan." King Abdullah of Jordan was killed by the British in 1951.
ADNAN OKTAR: He says that the king of Jordan will be killed. And that hadith also came true.
OKTAR BABUNA: The hadith speak of systems being changed. As you know, there was a huge change in systems with the tearing down of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and the fragmentation of the USSR in 1991.
ADNAN OKTAR: Our Prophet (saas) said that systems would change, and that has happened.
PRESENTER: Yes.
OKTAR BABUNA: "Widespread killing." And that is a well known characteristic of the 20th century, especially of the later decades. There is the "growth of buildings." And "people speaking with their hands, with the hand of Hazrat Mahdi (as)" Their "speaking with the tip of a whip," which are references to the telephone and the internet.
ADNAN OKTAR: Yes, people speak with their hands. That is what they do when they look at their mobile phones. That is the kind of impression they give.
PRESENTER: The mobile phone. New technology, of course.
ADNAN OKTAR: He speaks of them looking at their hands and seeing Hazrat Mahdi (as). He says they will see Hazrat Mahdi (as) where they sit. He is referring to the television, to his being seen on the television. He speaks of people talking to the heels of their shoes. And look, this is really amazing. That was manufactured just a couple of months ago. People speak with their heels. Word for word lie the Prophet (saas) said. If a person believes in any one of these then he has faith. It is proof that our Prophet (saas) is the true prophet. Our Prophet (saas) is working a miracle 1400 years after his death. And the prophet (saas) will continue to work miracles until Doomsday. You will see that all he says will come true, and is still doing so. But despite all their blustering, those masons cannot stop this light, this radiance, insha'Allah
OKTAR BABUNA: Insha'Allah. He speaks of "an increase in earthquakes." And there has been a huge rise in earthquakes over the last 10-15 years.
PRESENTER: Yes.
OKTAR BABUNA: There are reports of earthquakes every day.
CİHAT GÜNDOĞDU: There is "people speaking to themselves with their own voices."
OKTAR BABUNA: Yes.
ADNAN OKTAR: For example, someone tapes his own voice and listens to it on the television or on video or on tape. Isn't that right? It's the same thing.
PRESENTER: Yes, he can listen to himself.
ADNAN OKTAR: Our Prophet (saas) says this. It may have seemed very odd to people at the time, but it has come true exactly, word for word.
PRESENTER: Of course. That would have been inconceivable.
OKTAR BABUNA: Look, these have all come about within 30 years, after a gap of 1400 years, one after the other.
