Highlights from Mr. Adnan Oktar's interview on 16 August 2011

A9 TV, 16 August 2011

• Freemasons becoming Muslims, thanks be to Allah, is something I had never even considered. I imagined that freemasons would always be negative. That they would always follow satan. That we would be in a constant intellectual struggle of ideas against them. But then I saw that these people are ready to become followers of Hazrat Khidhr (as) and Hazrat Mahdi (as). Khidhr has also entered the masonic lodges from one direction, masha’Allah. He is working as a Master, masha’Allah. Hazrat Khidhr (as) is the masons’ greatest Master. But they are unaware of it, insha’Allah. He has now begun to turn them all toward Islam. Hazrat Mahdi (as) on one side and Hazrat Khidhr (as) on the other. They are dominating the lodges, alhamdulillah. And as followers of Hazrat Mahdi (as) we are striving with all our might to act as pioneers for him, insha’Allah.

• Pharaoh tells the Prophet Moses (as), "Am I not better than this man who is contemptible and can scarcely make anything clear?" He does not like the inferior classes. And what about people here? They do not care for our Kurdish and Arab brothers. But these are hospitable people and filled with love. Our Kurdish brothers in particular are radiant. They are extremely well-behaved and classy people. Those who speak against them are lacking in respect. The way of the Mahdi will embrace and love these blessed people, radiant people who are disparaged, despised, beaten and martyred. Top-quality people will emerge, and a top-quality world. Paris has not been Paris ever since it was first created, it only became Paris later on. London only became London later on. It is the same with the way of the Mahdi. There will be an explosion of civilization. The whole question is one of a leader taking charge of those intelligent, fine and loving people. Let us be brothers with Syria first of all, and the rest will be easy. There is but one Allah and one Word. We will make it even finer than Europe, I can guarantee them that. We will make Pakistan, Iran, Syria and Jordan even higher-quality than Europe. They can trust me on this, insha’Allah. They will be much better in character terms, too, but it is first essential that we unite.

• The bigoted types have a terrible hatred for young women. That spread as far as Europe, as we know. But I have cleaned that filth out, I have eliminated that disgrace, that enmity toward women, that hatred of women. I have shown them that they will be loved and respected and that we will all live together. And thanks to me, neither Europe nor America have any tools left they can use on this subject. Otherwise they would have been crushed, though they do not realize it. By Allah’s leave, I have saved them from a terrible scourge. The alleged terror organization Ergenekon would also have ruined them, Europe and America, may Allah forbid. I have stopped many things happening, by Allah’s leave. I have shown the warm, loving, rational and beautiful face of Islam. I love women. Everyone knows I love women very much. But I respect and value them. I am loyal and reasonable and full of respect for them and will not allow them to be repressed or downtrodden. I love them with a powerful love of Allah. I will not allow a hair on their heads to be harmed. I will not allow them to be repressed, and that is what matters. I want them to love Allah and the hereafter. I want them to be bound to Allah with love. They foolishly wish to break off 70% of the nation. They have already broken off from it and now they want me to. But I have a huge love for women, as did our Prophet (saas), and the Prophet Solomon (as), and the Prophet Joseph (as) and Hazrat Hassan (as). I love and value women and regard them as the greatest blessings in this world. And I want them to be well and happy.

• (About friendship between Muslims and non-Muslims)

Allah created them as non-Muslims. He could have created me like that, since He made them like that. I could have been a Jew or an Armenian. Allah has created Muslims and non-Muslims. We must embrace them and honestly explain how Islam and the way of Muhammad is love and beauty. No sane person can deny that. We cannot be hostile toward them because they are Greek or Armenian. When I was a child, calling someone a Greek or Armenian was an insult. Russians used to be called “Moscoffs.” They also tried to give Arabs a bad name. But then we saw that the Greeks are very nice and that Armenians are pleasant and excellent people. They are very dear to us. How can we hate them? We must show them affection. People are intelligent entities, and will accept the truth when they see it is good. What does Almighty Allah say? “Love one another, be affectionate and compassionate and forgiving and generous. Have good intentions and never abandon honesty. Protect and watch over one another. Avoid suffering and never abandon honesty, and beseech Allah for paradise.”

 Surat al-Ma’un

Have you seen him who denies the religion?

He is the one who harshly rebuffs the orphan.

A person with no conscience will be harsh and cruel. Someone who resorts to terror, inflicts suffering, attaches no value to people and regards them as second- or third-class.

and does not urge the feeding of the poor.

The whole world is not caught up in this scourge. Since they do not encourage the feeding of the poor, the poor are dying of hunger en masse. This meaning of the verse of the Qur’an also refers to the End Times.

So woe to those who pray,

They pray. They grow beards. But they are frauds and do not want to see the global dominion of Islam. They do not want Turkish-Islamic Union. They hate the Mahdi and the Prophet Jesus (as), may Allah forbid. And yet they pray.

and are forgetful of their prayer,

They are caught up in nonsense and invented practices. They have beards down to their stomachs and robes and headgear. The showy part of things is fine. But their souls and hearts and ideas are sinful. They have no love or affection and try to prevent the slightest bit of help being given. “They do not want to see any help given,” Allah is saying. Not to desire Islamic Union, Turkish-Islamic Union. What is the smallest bit of help? To say, “I want Turkish-Islamic Union.” They are trying to prevent that. They do not let people say that. Because if you say you want Islamic Union, then Turkish-Islamic Union will prevail. And there will be beauty and happiness in the world.

Surat al-Kawthar

Truly We have given you the Great Abundance.

 The abjad (numerological) value of the verse is 1453. The global dominion of Islam also gives the date of the capture of Constantinople. The Hijri date gives the dominion, and the Gregorian date is the dominion over Istanbul. It gives the date when it was captured by Sultan Mehmet the Conqueror.

So pray to your Lord,

Why do we pray? For Allah’s approval.

And sacrifice.

Muslims also sacrifice animals.

It is the one who hates you who is cut off without an heir.

The line of our Prophet (saas) comes to an end with Hazrat Mahdi (as). And it will come to an end with a huge global dominion, a magnificent global dominion and the excellent conclusion of Islam. The unbelievers, the crazy people of the time, said the line of the Prophet (saas) had been severed. When the little İbrahim (as) died, when that dear one died, they said the line of the Prophet (saas) had come to an end. But Almighty says, “Truly, We have given you the Great Abundance.” Global dominion, insha’Allah. The way of the Mahdi. The great abundance promised to our Prophet (saas) in the verse is the global, intellectual dominion of the sayyids, insha’Allah.

Truly We have given you the Great Abundance.

So pray to your Lord and sacrifice.

It is the one who hates you who is cut off without an heir.

They can see this now. Since the moral values of Islam will rule the world. The answer to those who say those words is emerging now, through the Mahdi, insha’Allah.

Surat an-Nasr

When Allah’s help and victory have arrived,

Help will come from Allah. Talk all you like, do what you like, if Allah’s help does not come there can be no victory. That is what it means. Allah will first desire it. Then the dominion will come.

victory have arrived

and you have seen people entering Allah’s religion in droves,

Not one by one, but en masse. When you see this.

then glorify your Lord’s praise,

Alhamdulillah, abjad calculation gives a date of 2016.

and ask His forgiveness. He is the Ever-Returning.

May Allah forgive all our sins, insha’Allah.

 “Say: ‘I seek refuge with the Lord of Daybreak,”

The dawn of Islam will come, insha’Allah.

“from the evil of what He has created”

This gives a date of 1941. The date of the Second World War.

“and from the evil of the darkness when it gathers”

This gives a date of 1971, the March 12 coup [in Turkey].

“and from the evil of women who blow on knots and from the evil of an envier when he envies.’”

Bigots and hypocrites are very envious. Especially the hypocrites. They are horribly jealous of Muslims’ health, happiness, strength, sovereignty, success, artistic prowess and everything. What does the hypocrite take pride in? His wealth and sons. There is a verse of the Qur’an about that. What does a Muslim take pride in? In Islamic Union, Turkish-Islamic Union and his efforts on Allah’s behalf. The hypocrite takes pride in his filthy body. Allah compares them to “like propped-up planks of wood..”
