ADNAN OKTAR:But I have been thinking, the opposition is actually a great requisite. I mean, may Allah forbid I have been thinking what would happen if there were no opposition. I mean life would stop; there would be a great indolence, languor. It is something like the world stopping to rotate. Something like a car stopping, like it's out of oil. I mean the existence of unbelief, dissension and hypocrites is really vital; it would give a great fervor.  Or else man would stop. The Qur'an refers to striving from the beginning to the end, how are you going to strive?

Look for instance, I have just opened the Surat Al'Ankabut and there is the story of the Prophet Abraham (a.s.). The Surat Al'Ankabut 29:24, I seek refuge in Allah from the satan "The only answer of his people was to say: 'Kill him or burn him!' "  Look for instance this is adrenalin, think about the effect it would have on the Prophet Abraham (a.s) when they say "kill him or burn him".  Right? He would be immensely excited. And the submission to Allah he had when they said "kill him or burn him" would be an enormous good deed. For instance you perform your prayers and earn one good deed but if the leader of the unbelief would say to you as a Muslim; "kill this man or burn him" in front of you and if he had his soldiers, his men around, do you know what would be the amount of the good deeds that you would be gaining at that instant? You have earned one from performing your prayers, you would earn a trillion more. I mean you wouldn't have gained that much good deeds even if you have performed your prayers for millions of years. That is the amount of good deed you would be given.  Just with half an hour of submitting to what you have been given by Allah, look if he had just submitted to what he has been given for half an hour he would be gaining an enormous amount of good deeds. That is very important. Look Allah creates such an incident just to create more good deeds for him. "But Allah rescued him from the fire." Because he submitted to Allah, Allah rescued him from the fire. He might have been martyred, that would have been a rescue as well but He does not. "There are certainly Signs in that for people who are believers." Allah says "I am telling you this to be a Sign for you," there are Signs for you here, there are proofs.
