Excerpt from Live Interview with Mr. Adnan Oktar by Kahramanmaraş Aksu and Kackar Tv dated September 9th, 2010
ADNAN OKTAR: "Whoever acts rightly"; whoever becomes sincere; that is the only way Allah shows for salvation; being sincere.
Recently, a brother of ours asked, "How is being sincere alone sufficient [for salvation]?" Now, surely it is obvious that he did not understand [what sincerity is]. Now, what does a person do when he is sincere? Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will come, he has come. He will come with a lost memory; that is, he doesn't know his past at all, but he is sincere. He comes and says, "What is this place?" They answer, "This is the world." Then he asks, "What is this?" They answer, "The Book". "What book is this?" he asks. They answer, "This is the book of Muslims." "This is Gospel and this is Torah." "What are these?", "They are letters." He will learn the letters, he will learn how to read. When he reads the Book, he will say, "This is right" for the Qur'an. "This Book is righteous." That is it. He will have clear and ultimate faith throughout his life. For instance he looks and sees that there is image and light; he sees that they come into being inside his brain. He sees that he hears the sound. He hears very quality sound. He sees the structure of the brain, right? He sees the structure of the ear. He touches, looks, feels; someone feels. He believes with a clear and unconditional faith. Prophet Jesus (pbuh) believes once and it is over; he employs that faith throughout his life. His faith never shakes. There are those people, you know, their faith bends, shakes; they lose their faith and then re-believe. The fact is, however, a wise man makes a very strong decision, he makes his decision once. That is, he grasps faith comprehensively and never leaves faith again. Insha'Allah.
Look: "Those of you who are obedient to Allah.. and act rightly". I mean, what does a man do when he is sincere? He, under all circumstances, finds the Qur'an, he fully abides by It, right? He commits himself to Allah with love, he loves His Messenger (saas). Allah says, ".. will be given their reward twice over; and We have prepared generous provision for them." That is, the provision in the Heaven and it also indicates the one in this world.
