ALTUĞ BERKER: Master, our Prophet (saas) has foretold that one of the portents of the End Times will be the increase in the occurrence of floods and earthquakes. Indeed natural disasters are occurring successively in this century, in a way that has never been seen in the history of world. Recently because of floods the heaviest rain of the last 55 years that has been going on for days in the central and south regions of China has caused, 171,000 hectare cultivated area were flooded. 170 people had lost their lives in a month. Tens of people had been lost in the floodwater. 2.5 millions of people were left homeless and a thousand business facilities have stopped their operations. Due to the flood and the landslips caused by the rail fall, 550 thousand people have been evacuated to secure regions up until now.  It has been estimated that the flood has caused 172 million dollars loss.

ADNAN OKTAR: Yes.. This has been going on uninterruptedly as a characteristic of this century. There is a severe increase in the occurrence of earth-quakes, a serious increase in the occurrence of floods and of hurricanes, a serious increase in sudden collapses on earth but an increase in astronomical numbers, let me say it like that. Events are occurring successively. That is a characteristic of the End Times. For instance [the increase is so much that] if such events occurred once in the past, they occur 20 times now. That is how it is. I mean there is such an exponential increase.

ALTUĞ BERKER: For instance in the occurrence of the earthquakes; while there had been only 500 earthquakes in total in the last 400 years, only in 1999 more than twenty thousand earthquakes have occurred.

ADNAN OKTAR: That is it. That is what I mean.

ALTUĞ BERKER: Yes, insha'Allah.

ADNAN OKTAR: Those who plead ignorance, see these as well. So that means it is not likely to miss.
