Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's live interview on TV Kayseri dated March 31st, 2010
ADNAN OKTAR:Hz. Adam(pbuh) was not in that position, for that reason as you know his attitude there was not really appropriate, he did wrong. He didn't know of Hell nor the impotence in the world. In the first seduction of the satan, he instantly accepted. He didn't resist much for instance. The psychopathic attitude of the satan there was caused by that, that is the reason of satan's snobbery. I mean he had not faced any pain, niether does he know of hell nor he had witnessed any kind of an incident. I mean the satan represents a classical snobbish and psychopathic spirit. I mean the satan shows the insane darkness of impertence and romanticism. For instance satan has a very romantic and insane soul, a psychopathic soul. For instance satan says to Allah; " I do believe in You", " I do have love for You" satan says, " but You are making a mistake " (Allah is beyond such) , " You have created me from fire, but him from soil, and even though You know that he is bad, and even though You know men are in fault , You want me to prostrate myself to him. I will prove this to You" See I mean that is a reflexion of a complete snobbish psychopathic and dark soul. Satan says "Give me time I will show You how abnormal these humans are" and says" I will show You that You are making a mistake" to Allah (Allah is beyond those claims). Allah says "You are given that time". Allah says " I have created a specialty that my sincere devout servants will not be effected " He says "You can't effect my sincere devout servants". But "Whoever follows you I will put those and you to the Hell" Allah But we should not forget this point, of course this also has a profoundness. It is Allah Who creates the satan and it is Allah Who gives him all his power and his speech. To believe in an independent satan would be immensely wrong and very inexpedient. It is Allah Who creates each and every word of the satan. He had created the satan with a wisdom for testing reasons. This also should be known. For instance at the end satan says; "I only called you, I didn't have any effect on you. You yourselves followed my call, I do fear Allah." Satan changes his attitude within an instant. I mean "you did it yourselves" he says and leaves them in the lurch. But of course, doing that would not save him from the Hell. But of course there is a profoundness and depth aspect Allah created in this. There is a Secret Knowledge aspect of this. I should state this much that it is Allah Who gives all his power to the satan and the satan is an important means in the test. For instance we also have an ego. When our ego gets into the picture, people immediately pressurize their conscience just to have fun. For instance when they will be doing something bad, they just say “let’s do this,what would happen?” , it will make them say “we can think about it later” or “ I will forswear about this later”. But nevertheless they do that act and say “ I will think about it later, I shouldn’t dwell on it much and do it right away” and he does it. And with the accumulation of such acts lack of conscience. Allah says , I take shelter in Allah from the satan; “and do not knowingly persist in what they were doing.” That is a sign for Muslims, even if a Muslim does something wrong, he would not be persistent on it. I mean He fears Allah, he bewares but of course not to beware of such behaviour is a very abnormal act.
