ADNAN OKTAR: His [Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)'s] ninth characteristic; "His possession of the innate sciences that is specifically required in his time." So he knows the events that will take place in the future from the hadiths and the verses of the Quran very well; he knows what will happen in the future. "That is because he can only solve the matters that will newly  come up by that." So because he knows what will happen in the future by the leave of Allah, he takes precautions accordingly. "As we stated above Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will not rule through comparison." Comparison is eliminated. There is no comparison in Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). "That is because comparison concludes many incidents taking place which puts the servants in a difficult situation." Look now a very vital issue is explained here look, "That is because comparison concludes many incidents taking place"; many commands, complicated commands, recently introduced commands and he says that an understanding of religion that people cannot cope with will then develop. Thousands of new commands; Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) does not accept this. Because he says look;  ".. [this] puts the servants in a difficult situation." Because religion is easiness. Our religion is the religion of easiness. Almighty Allah reveals in the verse, "He has selected you and not placed any constraint upon you in the religion- the religion of your forefather Ibrahim." I seek refuge with Allah from the accursed satan. Almighty Allah says "Allah desires ease for you; He does not desire difficulty for you." So making the religion easy is the command of Allah; making it difficult would be a satanic act. "Yet the essence in Islam is to make things easier." Look, in the work of Al-Barzanji,  one of the most esteemed Islamic scholars, this is explained by using the hadiths of our Prophet (saas). Look; "Yet the essence in Islam is to make things easier" Lightening; making the religious services easy, making the religion easy, making life easy. "This is why the Messenger of Allah (saas) said: 'Leave me alone in matters that I leave to you'." Look, 'Leave me alone in matters I leave to you.' Our Prophet (saas) says "do not have new commands made up;  do not ask me any questions". For instance the Companions come and ask him "how this is going to happen?" and "how that is going to happen?" Our Prophet (saas) says "Do as you know it." That means "be independent, be free and do not make up new things. Because if I say something, it would become an obligation. And you would have to do it. For that reason do not ask me, live freely." Look; 'Leave me alone in matters that I leave to you.'  Our prophet (saas) says "Because if it is something important, I would warn you and tell you anyway. But if I did not, then do not attempt to make it a ruling and do not put a constraint"

 "He did not like to be asked a lot of questions to prevent too many rulings and suggestions coming up." Look, "too many rulings and suggestions," what is happening now? There are too many rulings and suggestions. For that reason, superstitions and fabricated explanations have come up. The religion has been put into a completely different form. And this is at the root of the sufferings of the Muslim world.  It is said "Our Prophet (saas) let off with preaching only what Allah commanded him." Look, he" let off with preaching only what Allah commanded him," and no more. Allah tells the important and vital matters and other than those Muslims need to be left as free and well alone. "Since Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will follow the steps of the Messenger of Allah (saas) and will not fall into mistake, then he needs to be very merciful to living beings just like the Messenger of Allah (saas)." Look, not merciful, very merciful. To all living beings; cats, dogs, fish, people, children, women and all, he should be merciful to all . "So these nine characteristics have to be possessed by Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). Our Prophet (saas) told in his health that only Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will not be mistaken and kept his silence about the others."  So our Prophet (saas) did not say about Hazrat Abu Bakir (ra), Hazrat Omar (ra), Hazrat Osman (ra), Hazrat Ali (ra) and other guides who  are to emerge, about anyone that they will be innocent. "He kept his silence." Our Prophet (saas) told in his health that only Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will not be mistaken. This is defined by hadith, our Prophet (saas) says "He will not be mistaken." "And kept his silence about the others. Reason informs us that the Messenger of Allah (saas) is innocent. It is a requirement of reason and logic that a person who will be his successor and who is not going to fall into mistake,  will be just like this."
