ADNAN OKTAR: "My valuable, blessed Master who is the light of my eyes. I constantly hear people saying "if only he had been discharged ten days before, then he wouldn't be martyred." "If only we had not gone on a vacation , then my child wouldn't have died" "If only they had departed earlier, then they wouldn't have had a traffic accident." I am explaining them to the best of my ability but if I could beseech, could you please explain this logic that is in contradiction with the Qur'an? Your erudite explanations would be a cure for many people insha'Allah. I humbly kiss your hands," says Murat Seckin. We are kissing your hands as well.

Now of course such a mentality is not acceptable. I mean then he would have died of cancer ten days later,  he would have died of heart attack or in a car accident, something would have happened and he would die anyway; I mean the one destined to die would die anyway. As they say "what is to be will be." I mean those statements are highly impertinent. The date of death, the hour of death was already defined even before the world was created. Even before his parents were born, the moment of death for that child, for that person was defined.

They should be at ease about this matter. Death is Almighty Allah taking them to His Sight, I mean it is His taking them to His Spiritual Presence. We come to this world for being tested anyway. All people will be taken to the Sight of Allah after having completed their tests, they all will go to Almighty Allah. Of course Allah is everywhere with His Manifestations; I am just saying this so that the matter would be understood.
