ADNAN OKTAR: It is as if they were straight out of the factory. My apologies to good people, but the models are all the same, right down to the way of eating, their way of responding, skepticism, envy and jealousy and the way they rebuff. For instance, their snobbish comments, mockery and tactlessness are all the same. One learns from the other, and it goes on like this very quickly. One says; "You must not even trust your own father." The other says "be the captain who saves his own ship." The other says similar meaningless things. And they literally drive people mad. I mean, listening to things like : "you must not even trust your own father, you should save your own ship". So how will that person turn out to be? Egoistical. I mean he starts living only self-centered. They either become really introverted, those lovely young girls. Becoming half mad, some become almost like a schizophrenic. They live all alone. They have no laughter or joy or excitement. They have killed that young person off in solitary confinement. Or else they fall in with a bunch of crazies or gang members and become like them. But there is also a large body of people who escape all those. I do congratulate them. They niether fall in that trap nor this. They use their wits, seek shelter in Allah, and act and live according to the truth. That is the ideal model. I mean people who are called street-wise, the ones they call rippers are in fact just doomsayers under the influence of the satan. One should definitely avoid such people at all costs. One must use his free will. Altruism is not gullibility. Honesty is not gullibility. Loyalty is not gullibility. They are virtues. Allah bestows light on such people. He makes their work easier. He opens the way before them and bestows abundance. Allah says, in respect of the other side, the side of the unbelievers, that He will secretly draw them toward destruction from a point they are not aware of, step by step.  Allah prey on their minds, well in fact I shouldn't say it like that, may Allah forgive, He traps them in apprehensions, He destructs them.

They do not sense it. Down till their sicknesses. But most frequently, Allah makes his conscience attack him. His soul attacks him, attacks his body. The body is weak, it gives way and collapses. But if asked, they will say, "That is life. We are street-wise, we know the game." And so they live grovelling. Someone who thinks well, deep and rationally can be saved from this mentality. People who can't think well would get sucked in. We see the positions of the rational and the unthinking ones in the world of the test. Intelligent people would never get sucked in that swamp. But they call such people gullible, and insult and attack them and call them crazy; he shouldn't care at all. In other words, moral virtue is a very big luxury, it is the greatest comfort in the world. To be a Muslim means to be the highest quality of person in the world, and it is the greatest comfort. But that only applies to true Muslims. We are not referring to fanatics and bigots. Right? We are not referring to those who just mimic it. But a real, devout, genuine Muslim is the best quality, most select and most valuable person in the world. Such a person is 'super-valuable'. He is like an angel. By the leave of Alah, such a person has the power of angels. No one can wrong him or oppress him. What he dois is productive, his paths are opened up, he experiences true love and is always under Allah's protection. That is to say he is a wondrous entity. But you also see the opposite. Of course we pray for those to be out right. Insha'Allah, Allah will lead them all to salvation in the End Times. He will open their minds. When the moral values of Islam prevail the world, this would not be halfway, it will be a complete dominion insha'Allah. Allah will bestow souls to those who have none, insha'Allah. And give intelligence to those who lack it. He will bestow salvation on those whom He has not led to salvation. But this will be for the last time. At the moment a great many people are in a deep sleep, like the Companions of the Cave. They are sleeping, but Allah will waken them.
