Jesus Messiah will not come with a prophethood duty, he will come as a subject of the Qur’an

ADNAN OKTAR: "When he bows his head, water drips, when he lifts it, beads like silver pearls roll down his hair." This is Jesus Messiah. "Water drips from his hair even though it does not come into contact with any water." Abu Dawood. I will talk about what the water on his head means later, insha'Allah. Look, "His hair is wet even though it did not come into contact with any water." We will talk about what that water means in another conversation. Our Prophet (saas) puts quite an emphasis on this subject. He deems it significant. This must mean it has a vital importance. Jesus Messiah has a thin waist, while Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) does not. Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) has a bulky body overall. "His face is pure and bright," says Al-Nabawi Ibn-Hajar. "His face looks red as if he just got out of a bath house," says al-Bukhari. "He has a calm and lively expression. His mouth and nose have a perfect beauty." He has a small, nice, upturned nose. "His forehead is even and clean. He has a dense beard." Jesus (pbuh) has a clean-cut beard. He has an elegant beard, not a classic, full beard. "His eyes glow like fire. His face is white with a red tinge," writes Al-Tabarani in his book, al-Kabir. Our Prophet (saas) is describing what he has seen. What I am telling you are hadiths. And the rest are the verses of the Qur’an. "His eyes are greenish gray." Jesus (pbuh). "He has a sharp look and freckles on his face." He has freckles on his hands and feet too. "He has chestnut hair tinged with a touch of gold." His beard is the same color. It is light, meaning it is a mix of blond and chestnut. "It is as if water drips from his hair." There is an extraordinary situation here. It is not something ordinary. His hair looks wet, well-groomed and mildly wavy. So is his beard. Jesus' (pbuh) hair comes down to his shoulder bones. It is not short at all. His hair is straight down to his ears, and then the rest is wavy. I am describing him so that you won't be surprised when you see him. "He has a small and pleasant nose, his hands and feet are clean and radiant. He has a gentle and content demeanor, he is athletic. His fingers are delicate and long.” In other words, he has thin, delicate hands. "He has an agile, strong body. People wouldn't want to avert their gaze from him once they look at him," says our Prophet (saas), they can't take their eyes off him.

What is interesting is that Catholic and Orthodox Christians, all will acknowledge that he is Jesus Messiah. He is known as the prophet of Christians, as you know; Jews deny him. But what is interesting here is even the Jews will acknowledge him when he comes. "There is not one of the People of the Book who will not believe in him" says God in the Qur’an, that is a miracle. Jews absolutely deny him, they do not recognize him as a prophet. They claim "no such prophet existed." But they will acknowledge him once he comes.

OKTAR BABUNA: On the occasion of Moshiach?

ADNAN OKTAR: Yes. Our Prophet (saas) says, "Leave the right side of my grave empty." People can go and see that there is a considerable space left next to his grave. On his right lies Hazrat Abu Bakr (ra), and Hazrat Omar (ra) is buried further. Normally, he would be buried right next to our Prophet (saas), right? Why would such a considerable amount of space be left? They left a space next to the grave of our Prophet (saas). He says, “Bury my brother Jesus next to me so that we can rise together." "Qum" says God, meaning "rise". Upon hearing the word, Qum, they suddenly come to life. The spirit of God is prevalent in everything. Before you know it, they are alive. Our Prophet (saas) and Jesus Messiah are the first ones to rise. Others will follow them. Jesus Messiah is the manifestation of God's name, "Al-Hayy". The name "Al-Hayy [The Living]" manifests itself in him the most.

Ether encompasses the whole universe in the form of a sea. "The Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters," says God [in the Torah]. In other words, "The spirit of God is everywhere." We see this frequently in the Qur’an. Otherwise there would be no motion, there would be nothing.

"Messianism is Judaism," writes The Great Eagle is not Dead, 3636; "Messianism is Judaism.” I am asking you, who will be considered the last prophet when the Messiah descends to earth again? Our Prophet (saas). The Messiah will come with the prophet title only, not with the prophethood duty. He has the title, but he will be subject to the Qur’an. Jesus Messiah will come as a Muhammadan. "Messianism is Judaism" it is stronger. If it exists in Judaism, in the pages of the Prophet Abraham (pbuh), if the Mahdi was heralded by the Prophet Noah (pbuh), by the Prophet Abraham (pbuh), by the Prophet Moses (pbuh), if it is written in the Torah, than Mahdism is right, it’s true. It’s something you cannot deny. "It is written both in the Torah and the Psalms," says our Prophet (saas). "You can look there," he says.

BULENT SEZGIN: Mr. Oktar, there is a symbolic painting of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh), can we show it?

ADNAN OKTAR: Let me see. Yes, it is about right. Imagine his nose a bit smaller, slightly smaller and it is about right.

Anti-Semitism, An Atrocious “Trend”

Our world has seen its fair share of brutality. From Hulagu Khan, who boasted about killing 200,000 Muslims during his violent week-long rampage in the city of Bagdhad which also resulted in the complete destruction of centuries-old heritage, to Vikings that took what they deemed desirable by force and violence, to the modern day Syrian regime targeting its own people, we can say that our world has witnessed some unspeakable acts of violence.

However, throughout the history, some groups were targeted more than the others. Like the Jewish people. Their ordeal started at the hands of Pharaoh, who killed their boys and let only their girls live. The oppression against Jews continued throughout Antiquity, at the hands of the Assyrians, Babylon and the Romans, who massacred and exiled Jews and destroyed their temples and cities. In Medieval times, Jews were once again targeted, labeled, discriminated against and chased away from wherever they took shelter. The oppression continued in recent history when six million Jews were slaughtered by Nazis.

Today, the persecution still goes on.

Anti-Semitism in Europe lingers in the form of harassment in public areas, offensive remarks and discriminatory behavior in social life and more terrifyingly, in the form of brutal assaults; The vandalizing and looting of Jewish businesses, burning of cars, hundreds chanting “gas the Jews”, “kill the Jews” in violent protests, shooting and molotov cocktail attacks at the synagogues, and the recent Creteil attack in France where a Jewish couple was brutally attacked in their homes. The incident was a horrible reminder of the 2006 incident -again in France- that involved a young Jewish man being captured, tortured for weeks and then left naked to die. He later died from his injuries.

France is not the only place that witnesses anti-Semitism. From Argentina, to Tunisia, from Ireland to Spain, Jews seem to be caught up in a constant cycle of hatred targeting their communities. Even in the USA, which is known for its unwavering support for Israel, Jewish people are wary of divulging their identities, or practicing their religious duties in public. An unprovoked attack on a 24-year-old Jewish man wearing a yarmulke by four men in Brooklyn, NY; the assault of a 12-year-old Jewish girl who had a bottle thrown at her by a group of girls, including one who yelled, “You dirty Jew”; and the attack on a Jewish man in Los Angeles, CA, who was surrounded by five male suspects who yelled “Heil Hitler!” before striking him, can be listed amongst the disturbing incidents in the USA.

The Middle East is home to the worst cases of anti-Semitism. Especially after the recent Gaza/Israeli war, hatred towards Jewish people regardless of their age, gender or involvement in any of the conflict, has gone up in a disturbingly fast manner. But why does some people seem to think that it is legit to hate Jewish people?

In the past, some people disliked Jews as they saw them underhanded conspirators who segregated themselves from the societies they lived in due to widespread antisemitic propaganda as The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. The sentiment was further fuelled with notorious lies like the blood libel, portraying Jews as the veritable embodiment of evil. Today, the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians is the driving force behind this ubiqutious Jewish-hatred, and often used as a cloak to justify violence against ordinary Jews on the streets.

Surely political administrations or individuals within a community might make mistakes. However, persecuting a whole community based on the acts of few would be neither Quranic nor moral.

The Jewish people are known for their calm and modest demeanor. They are a quiet people that like to occupy themselves with their daily routine and religious practices. Therefore it is even more surprising that such calm and reserved people have been on the receiving end of such persecution throughout the history.

Any resentment towards the policies of Israel should be voiced in a civil manner, without putting the blame on the entire community. God prohibits Muslims from such a behavior. In the Qur’an, God warns believers as such:

“O you who have believed, be persistently standing firm for Allah, witnesses in justice, and do not let the hatred of a people prevent you from being just. Be just; that is nearer to righteousness. And fear Allah ; indeed, Allah is Acquainted with what you do.” (Qur’an 5:8)

It is most natural for there to be good and bad people in every group, community or nation. Just like there are countless murderers, liars, criminals, people with bad morals in the Muslim communities, it is natural for Jewish communities to have people with less than commendable actions. Yet, it is a most absurd and ridiculous act to feel antipathy towards a group in its entirety for the actions of a few. Most importantly it is diagonally opposite to the teachings of Qur’an.

According to the Qur’an, Jewish people are People of the Book and are to be respected, protected and approached with love. God allows Muslims bonding with them through marriage, which alone explains the extent of friendship and closeness God expects from us to have with them. As when people marry, they become their significant others, lovers, confidants, and companions. God also allows us to have social bonds with Jews, to have dinners with them in their homes. God never tells Muslims to hate them, or discriminate against Jews or Christians. God praises Jews in many verses for their devotion and piety and indeed, Jewish people set a great example to Muslims with their unwavering loyalty to the Prophet Moses.

All these facts make it clear that there is no basis, neither in Islam nor in Judaism, that could lead to such friction. Once everyone realizes that God created this world for love and it is against God’s wishes to harbor hostile feelings towards each other, brotherhood and peace will prevail.

Adnan Oktar: The ark of the Prophet Moses (pbuh) is waiting to be given to Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated November 11th, 2014

Adnan Oktar: Is there anything good about the conflict between Palestine and Israel? Of course, there is. Our Prophet (pbuh) says in the hadiths that Muslims and Jews will fight and blood will be spilled. But then he says that all Jews, apart from a very few, will become Muslims. Why are you causing trouble for people who will become Muslims, my brother? The Qur’an says that a group of them espouses the truth. There are Jews who espouse the truth. The Imam Mahdi will take the Ark of the Prophet Moses (pbuh) and place it before the mosque in Jerusalem. Those Jews who see that, all but a very few, will become Muslims there and then. You should enjoy those glad tidings, my brother.

Has the Ark been found? There are people taking an interest, but it is being kept aside to be given to Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). It is under special protection. It is being preserved. It has never been opened. Its cover and everything are all intact. The covering has never been removed. Nothing will be apparent when it is brought out and looked at from the outside.

The Knights Templars say they have a holy relic, but that they will only give it to Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). When I asked the Templars where the Mahdi is, they said in Istanbul. They said in Rome, that it was written in their 1000-year-old book. They said they saw a light in Istanbul. They say that then there is someone important and of interest, that person is shown to them and they go and find him. They say they will find him, and it is impossible for him to remain hidden.

-  Sanhedrin Court rabbis came to visit you. You welcomed them in the garden, and they said the King Messiah is in Istanbul and everyone should see him.

Adnan Oktar: Yes, the Jews are a holy people, descended from the prophets. Satan is responsible for this hatred against them. I mean, we love the line of our Prophet (pbuh), don’t we? They are also the children of the Prophet Abraham and the Prophet Israel, so you must love them. People should rejoice that they exist. The line of the prophets is still alive, what more do you want? Set those who create corruption among you to one side, but embrace those who love Allah.

Adnan Oktar: The call to prayer will issue from the Temple of the Mount when the Mahdi appears

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated November 11th, 2014

Adnan Oktar: The ram’s horn will be heard to blow in Jerusalem.

- There was a photograph.

Adnan Oktar: Yes, let me see. Yes, that is the one. From a horn. Is the original picture not available?

- Only this one at the moment.

Adnan Oktar: Yes, a very powerful horn. A wondrous sound will emanate from the Dome of the Mount. The muezzin [caller to prayer] will climb to the mount and will read the call to prayer with a beautiful voice.

Church bells will also start ringing at the presence of the Mahdi, when the imam Mahdi appears. Peals of bells will be heard everywhere. These sounds will tell people that an extraordinary time has come. The horn will be blown for hours, the bells will ring for hours and the call to prayer will be made for hours. Then the imam Mahdi will bring the Ark of the Prophet Moses (pbuh) to Al-Aqsa Mosque with great joy, by praising Allah aloud.

And the cover will be lifted, and when the sacred relics are seen, the Jews will begin loudly shouting La Ilah al-Illa’Alah Muhammadan Rasul’Allah [there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is His messenger], insha’Allah. Our prophet (saas) says they will all become Muslims, apart from a very few. All the sacred relics will be there in their original state. All the relics from the dawn of history, from relics from the Prophet Adam (pbuh) to those from the Prophet Noah (pbuh). The inscribed stone tablets of the Prophet Moses (pbuh) will be there. What other sacred relics are there?

- The staff.

Adnan Oktar: part of the staff...

- There is the shirt of the Prophet Moses (pbuh). The ring of the Prophet Solomon (pbuh).

Adnan Oktar: What else?  'Manna.' In a gold box. Since gold does not oxidize.  

- Teacher, there will be the original ram’s horn.

Adnan Oktar: Let me see. Yes. That will blow for hours in Jerusalem. When? In the month of Muharram. At what time? At the morning prayer. Everywhere will ring with this sound at first light. Everyone who hears it will realize something extraordinary is happening. The Rabbi who is the head of the Sanhedrin Court said he would bring the Pope when he was here visiting us.

 - Insha’Allah

Adnan Oktar: He said we will also descend from the temple together, insha’Allah. I said, ‘I can smell the scent of the Mahdi.’ ‘I have no sense of smell, but I can see and hear the presence of Moshiach, the Mahdi,’ he said.

Masha’Allah.

So Almighty Allah must have shown him. Insha’Allah, Allah will also allow us to see the Mahdi.

The Shame of the 20th Century: The Holocaust

http://www.harunyahya.com/en/Documentaries/195153/The-Shame-of-the-20th-Century-The-Holocaust

Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will open the Ark of the Covenant on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount together accompanied with the current Pope and rabbis

Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will open the Ark of the Covenant on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount together accompanied with the current Pope and rabbis

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated July 31th & 26th, 2014

Adnan Oktar:  Can they not stop launching rockets so we can establish peace and this horror can come to an end? What is the point? They are trying to escalate it every day! Let us establish peace so they can embrace one another. Let them announce that they are brothers. The two sides could even establish an army together. They should set up their own defense structures. Let us build the Temple of Solomon at once, and the lovely palace of the Prophet Solomon (pbuh). Then what should we do…?

Oktar Babuna: Let us climb to the Temple Mount.

Adnan Oktar: Let us climb to the Temple Mount. Look, the gate of Lot is closed. Let us get the rabbis to open it. Then let us get imams and the Pope, and the chief rabbi. Let us walk down from the Mount together, through the gate of Lot. That will be the end of the matter.

Oktar Babuna: Insha’Allah. Will the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) be there, too?

Adnan Oktar: We are waiting for him, otherwise we would long since have been there. It is no good without him, so we are waiting. If we have to wait too long, we will go there anyway. He will see and will hear and will have to come, insha’Allah. He will come to pray. He will come to pray at the Dome of the Rock. We will have to oblige him to come, otherwise he will not.

- When will he come?

Adnan Oktar: Let me explicitly state that Jesus will not come until Hazrat Mahdi makes Islam prevail the world. It is not possible. He will not come until the Christian world feels an intense love for Islam. He will not come until the Jewish world feels an intense love for Islam. The responsibility for that lies with the Mahdi, a man of love. He is now awaiting God’s command. It has nothing to do with his saying, ‘I have come.’ He will say, 'I was made to appear.’ God is now making things hard for the Islamic community. There is great pressure on them. Blood is flowing in Palestine, Libya, Egypt and everywhere. But it will flow much more than that! Blood will flow until the Mahdi tells it to stop!

That is what God desires. That is Almighty God’s command in destiny. We see the blood that has flowed before. It flowed even before the world was made. The angels above saw it and said, ‘The Lord will cause blood to flow. Do You create people in order to give them pain?’ Because God reveals mysteries to them. They know the entire past of the world. They see rivers of blood, particularly in the End Times, in the time of the Mahdi. Almighty God says, you cannot know, but I know. What do the angels not know? The appearance of the Mahdi, the appearance of Jesus the Messiah. They think there will just be bloodshed. Yet Almighty God will produce a light from that sea of blood. The Mahdi and Jesus the Messiah. Two brothers. We will see they closely resemble one another. That resemblance is another source of amazement. Their natures will also be very similar.

It is 2000 years since Jesus the Messiah ascended into the sky. The Mahdi has come 2000 years later, but they bear a remarkable resemblance to one another, in nature and appearance. Their meeting will be at the meeting of the two seas told in Surat al-Kahf. God also says that pearls and corals will appear where those two seas meet. That refers to Jesus the Messiah and the Mahdi. From where the two seas meet, says God. That is guarded language, but clear enough for those who wish to understand. The Qur’an is a sea of secrets.

Aylin Kocaman: Can we learn where the Prophet Jesus is?

Adnan Oktar: The location of Jesus the Messiah is a matter of which God is most jealous. He greatly loves Jesus the Messiah. The Roman soldiers climbed the stairs where Jesus was in order to crucify him. Had Almighty God so wished, they could have found him. They could have martyred Jesus the Messiah. He could have raised him into His Presence in that form. But He raised him directly into His Presence in the form of light. He raised him up in a living state, in the form of light. Now, in the End Times He is turning him into light and sending him back. His followers know that he is Jesus the Messiah. But his life is at risk at the moment. 

His return may drive some members of the Catholic Church completely crazy. It will drive members of the Vatican mafia crazy. It is something that will spur the Vatican mafia into action. Therefore, since his life is in danger God will conceal him until the last moment. But the Mahdi will create circumstances in which he commands the Islamic world and the Christian world also draws very close to Islam. 

Moshiach will descend from the Temple of the Mount. There will be rabbis there and Islamic scholars. The Pope will be there. The rabbi I spoke to (who visited from Israel) about this said the Pope will be there!

Oktar Babuna: Will that happen after the Ark of the Covenant?

Adnan Oktar: Yes, after the descent. The Ark of the Covenant will be opened. That is the reason for that procession, in any case. They will go up to the Temple of the Mount. It is not a very steep hill. There will be rabbis. The Mahdi will be there. Insha’Allah, I will be beside the Mahdi. I do not miss such encounters. The Pope will be there. They elected him specially for that task. The Pope knows about the Mahdi and Jesus the Messiah. I underline that – he knows. He knows what to do and how to behave to whom.

Chief rabbis and Islamic scholars will be there on that day. They will be reasonable scholars though, not fanatics. There will not be any fanatics there on that day.

They will descend from the Temple of the Mount. That rusted iron gate will be opened after 4000 years. Nobody has gone through since then. The gate will be opened and they will pass through. And from there to the al-Aqsa Mosque, insha’Allah. Maybe the Knights of the Temple will be there, and Freemasons. The Ark will be brought up. It will contain sacred relics from the time of the Prophet Solomon and the Prophet Moses. It will be the original Ark of the Covenant.

It will be opened up to the accompaniment of expressions of faith, insha’Allah. The Jews will praise God out loud. Who do the Jews believe can open the Ark? Moshiach! Who will open it? The Mahdi. According to the Torah, only Moshiach can open the Ark. Nobody else. It is a sacred relic that has not been found until then. They failed to find the Ark for 4000 years. Then Moshiach found it and brought it. It is impossible for them to deny that. They have to accept that according to the Torah it is Moshiach who will find the Ark.

Then the first stone of the Temple of Solomon will be laid. A piece of manna will be placed alongside it, insha’Allah. A very small piece of manna, the size of a tea spoon, left over from the time of the Prophet Moses (pbuh) will be put there. After that, the Prophet Jesus will come as Muslims are praying, insha’Allah. It may be a Friday prayer or any morning prayer. The hadiths speak of a morning prayer. The prophet Jesus (pbuh) will come during an unexpected morning prayer with a small number of select followers, no more than 10. He will come trusting in God. Because trust in the system of the Mahdi will have come about by then. He will smile. There will be no need for him to say to the Mahdi, “I am Jesus.” The Mahdi will realize when he sees him, insha’Allah. Believers will also realize. His followers will say, look whom we have brought. Believers will say, ‘Masha’Allah.” That is all. You will see.  The time is close at hand, insha’Allah. 

Our Prophet (saas) says, “When Hazrat Mahdi appears, he will discuss and prove the matters of which he speaks with the Jews on the basis of the Torah. As a result, many Jews will become Muslims.”

Hatred of Jews is incompatible with the Qur’an

Hatred of Jews is incompatible with the Qur’an (24.07.2014)

Hatred of Jews is incompatible with the Qur’an

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated July 24th, 2014

- The anti-Semitic slogans used in anti-Israeli protests in various German cities have sparked a debate. The words of a Danish imam preaching in a mosque in Berlin to the effect that ‘May Allah destroy all Zionist Jews’ have sparked protests against Jews, involving verbal and physical violence, in several German cities. 

Adnan Oktar: This is very dangerous, incompatible with Islam and will come back to haunt them. It may rebound against our brothers in a violent manner. They are making a grave error. They are God’s servants. He has created them as Jews. They believe in the one God and say, 'La ilaha illa’Allah' - 'There is no other deity than God.’ Then you go and attack these people! They do not bother with the communists or the PKK [communist terror organization]. They only bother with a handful of Jews who believe in God. They do not even know what they have done wrong. That is evil. God tells us in verses that we can marry their women and can eat food prepared by them. Muslims can do business with them. That behavior is wrong. It is a sin, and incompatible with Islam.

The Torah reveals that the Jews will experience great fear before the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). That is why they are so worried by these tunnels

The Torah reveals that the Jews will experience great fear before the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). That is why they are so worried by these tunnels (25.07.2014)

The Torah reveals that the Jews will experience great fear before the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). That is why they are so worried by these tunnels

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated July 25th, 2014

- The Palestinians are not using the tunnels for operations. Aid such as food and medicines is generally obtained through these tunnels. Access to Egypt is through these tunnels. There are two border crossings, but since these are generally closed, these needs are met through these tunnels. 

Adnan Oktar: In that case, why is Israel so worried about them? If they do them no harm? 

- They also carry weapons through them. They claim that these tunnels were used in the kidnapping of the Israeli soldier. Hamas also uses these tunnels.

Adnan Oktar: They are worried at the possibility of kidnapping. In terms of security. 

- Yes.

Adnan Oktar: There is a verse in which God says you were “afraid that the people would snatch you away, He gave you refuge and supported you with His help..”’ That is what will happen in the End Times. It is the system of the Mahdi that is described in verse 55 of Surat an-Nur. God says He will give them ‘in place of their fear, security.’ He says He will do this through His true servants. His true servants are the followers of the Mahdi, the followers of Jesus the Messiah, and those who obey and love them.  

- Suicide bombers also apparently move through these tunnels.

Adnan Oktar: There are no suicide attacks at the moment. There have not been any lately. Israel wants a policy of intense measures. They want there to be nothing that can threaten their security. They want to close down everything they regard as a risk. But they may really fear those tunnels. The Torah says that God will send fear into the heart of Israel in the End Times. 

'You will fear everything and everyone before the coming of Moshiach, the Mahdi. You will live in fear,’ He says. They are now in that time. You will live in intense fear,’ He says. I have spoken of this matter with them. They say the same thing. 'We are a nation that lives in intense fear. We are a nation disposed to fear, and they constantly inflict fear on us.’ They are uneasy about this. 

It is wrong to inflict fear on innocent Jews

- The Iranian leader Khamenei has said that the Zionist regime must be destroyed and that the West Bank must be armed. 

Adnan Oktar: My brother, there will be a state of Israel. And the Jews will live in that region. They have only one homeland. Wherever they go, they are thrown out. That is a shame, and they must be treated with a bit of compassion. They are hated everywhere, and that is a terrible thing. They cannot walk in the streets. They live in fear everywhere. They should be treated with a bit of love and compassion. The people, that is, not the killers or the wicked. Compassion to the innocent. Let them live there. The land goes on forever. What is the point of hurting them and inflicting fear and suffering on them? But they will never be able to live at ease until the coming of Moshiach. The Torah says, ‘You will always live in fear.’ ‘Fear will spread in their hearts,’ it says. But they will live at ease in the time of Moshiach. Of the Imam Mahdi, in other words, the true person of Israel. The People of Israel who will save them are the Mahdi and his followers.

A report concerning Mr. Adnan Oktar broadcast on the Israeli channel i24

A report concerning Mr. Adnan Oktar broadcast on the Israeli channel i24 (05.04.2014)

A report concerning Mr. Adnan Oktar broadcast on the Israeli channel i24

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated April  05th, 2014

Didem Ürer: A report about you was carried last Sunday on the new international Israeli news channel i24, which broadcasts in English and French. The report, which included extracts from an interview with you here, said that you are a well-known author with more than 300 books to your name, that you discuss religious affairs in your chats on A9 TV, that you believe in friendship and closeness between everyone, irrespective of their faith and that in the eyes of the Qur’an the Jews have the right to live in Israel.

I think the video clip is ready.

There is a television channel in Istanbul that broadcasts to all faiths and that makes no distinction between them. We are now going to show an interview in Istanbul conducted by Maël Benoliel. This TV station is Turkish but it broadcasts also in English and can be received all over the world by satellite. The programs on the channel basically consist of conversations on religious matters, and women wearing loose clothing also appear on them. There is one person at the station’s head: Adnan Oktar.

The person who believes in dialogue and friendship among people on the programs he produces is a Sunni Muslim with a new conception of Islam. Under that conception of Islam, jihad is prohibited and the Jews have the right to live in Israel.

“It is a matter of moments for all people to live together happily and for Christians, Jews and Muslims to live as brothers.”

A large number of rabbis, including Chief Rabbi Israel Meir Lau, and Israeli politicians have taken part in these conversations with Adnan Oktar. In addition to his TV broadcasts, Adnan Oktar also writes books. To date he has penned more than 300.

Adnan Oktar says that he has received death threats from radical groups.

“In order for people to grasp my line, they need to grasp the line of the Qur’an and the Torah. Love and peace are commanded in the Torah and the Qur’an. Some people have threatened me because I protect and watch over the Jewish people, tell people of the truths of the Qur’an and say that the Qur’an is all we need. That is a mark of honor for me.”

Adnan Oktar: That is very good. Masha’Allah.

God reveals in the Qur’an that Muslims can marry women from the People of the Book

God reveals in the Qur’an that Muslims can marry women from the People of the Book (21.02.2014)

God reveals in the Qur’an that Muslims can marry women from the People of the Book

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated February  21th, 2014

Adnan Oktar: The People of the Book are specially protected by Almighty God. There is a verse; God tells us to treat them nicely and in a compassionate way and God says that we can marry their women. God says that we can invite them to dine or eat with them. He tells us that they can come to our houses and we can go to theirs. God tells us to be their friends and marry them. Look: marry the People of the Book!

But you say this: “Master what business do you have with the Jews?” There will be Islamic Union, and Jews and Christians will all be in it. There will be an alliance with Christians. The system of the Mahdi will prevail. Look; this rabbi who came here is waiting for the Moshiach. He is waiting for the Moshiach with enthusiasm and his whole community is waiting for the Moshiach too. What is Moshiach’s duty? Saving the world from irreligiousness, Darwinism and materialism; turning the world into a fair ground. Ending all pains. Both the Moshiach (Mahdi) and the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) have come. They will both appear very soon. The reason behind the incidents in Turkey is the system of the Mahdi. It is nice that a Jewish rabbi came to Turkey. Show some compassion; they are servants of God. They have remained loyal to the Prophet Moses (pbuh) for four thousand years. They never abandoned their faith. They were careful about right and wrong. They said that God is One. They believe in all prophets and most of the rabbis that I have talked to say that they believe our Prophet (pbuh) as a prophet. Therefore enmity towards Jews, Christians or hatred towards Buddhists or atheists; it is wrong. It is unreasonable and cruel. God could have created you as an atheist, a Jew or a Christian. God has created you as a Muslim, thanks be to God. But our duty towards them is told in the Qur’an. We must be compassionate and loving towards them. But some are siding with cruelty. This is wrong.

The Protocols Of The Learned Elders Of Zion

Mr. Adnan Oktar's live talk with Prof. Charles Asher Small, Director of Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy on A9 TV (29 December 2011; 11:00)

Harun Yahya: Love, rational thinking and common sense will emerge victorious

CHARLES ASHER SMALL: So, I guess my first question would be from a religious perspective, as well as from a philosophical, moral and ethical perspective, the treatment of the other is an important aspect of religion, if not civilization. So, from a political/moral perspective, I'm influenced by the work -for example- of Emmanuel Levinas, and the treatment of the other and he argues that when we see ourselves, we see ourselves in the face of the other, that this is the moment we become human; this is the moment when we realize the godliness in the other person, that we're all created in the image of God. And can you speak please, I guess from an Islamic perspective, from your teachings and from your perspective, the importance of acknowledging and respecting the other vis-a-vis, in the case that I'm interested in, anti-Semitism or other forms of discrimination; how does that affect the morality of the individual from an Islamic perspective?

ADNAN OKTAR: Anti-Semitism is impossible in our age, at a time when we have the internet and television and when people can easily access information of all kinds. It is a system that applied during the Middle Ages, when cruel and ruthless ideas predominated. But we are now a society of love. The world is heading in the direction of love. Of union, unity and brotherhood. We are in the age of the Messiah, the King Messiah, the Mahdi. There is no room for such primitive and oppressive ideas as anti-Semitism in such an age, and we will never permit it. Islam is a religion of love and peace. All the religions demand love, peace and brotherhood. It is the same in Judaism and Christianity and Islam. The name 'Islam' means 'peace', as befits it. It's origin comes from the Arabic root word meaning peace, and it can thus be best understood from this as well. Allah wants us to be forgiving, affectionate, compassionate, loving and sincere. And the Qur'an tells us to learn about science and research. It wants art, beauty and goodness to reign over the world. And that is the age we have now entered. There will be no more oppressive systems from now on.

CHARLES ASHER SMALL: I pray to God that he is right, and I appreciate his answer, but I would argue that through the use of the internet, through globalization at the one hand, globalization is bringing people together as never before, perhaps in the history of humanity and, at the same time it's separating and segregating people through all sorts of economic, social and cultural processes. And in fact the internet and globalization, a part of it is a rise in hatred. I would say for example that internet websites are preaching hatred, even though sometimes people are preaching love and togetherness; there is a movement that's preaching hatred. For example, the lies of European anti-Semitism, the anti-Semitism which existed before the internet which was basically a European issue more so than any other part of the world, but this European anti-Semitism is actually infiltrating into the Islamic world at a very alarming rate; and for example, the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" which was a forged document, a fake document.

CHARLES ASHER SMALL: So, we were speaking earlier about how Islam and Christianity and Judaism and other religions are religions of love, and this is essentially a time of love in Messianic times, but I was saying that the internet is also a conveyor of hate that's bringing people together to hate, and in some countries like Turkey, the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" which is a lie, which is a European genocidal anti-Semitic discourse, is now entering into the Islamic world. I was wondering what he thinks about this phenomenon.

ADNAN OKTAR: Such ideas have long existed in the Islamic world and in Europe. But love, rational thinking and common sense have always emerged victorious. We cannot abandon the world to psychopaths, of course. The world has now entered the Golden Age under the leadership of the Mahdi, the King Messiah. And that development is still continuing. Tyrants and the supporters of satan encourage ruthlessness, bloodshed, psychopathic behavior and persecution. But the supporters of Allah, those who love Allah, espouse love, peace, brotherhood, art, science and democracy. The supporters of Allah will be victorious. That is explicitly set out in the Torah and the Qur'an. Look, it is vital that we know that there is an urgent need for the way of the Mahdi, the King Messiah, the Mahdi, and to seek these individuals who have been foretold and praised. That is so important, the key to solution.

CHARLES ASHER SMALL: Okay, so I agree on that level, but now that we're living in the physical world, at this moment of history, where people are using religion to preach hatred and not love, how do we, from an Islamic perspective, how are people in power to counteract, to confront those for example who speak of the Jews in the narrative of the "Protocols", from Indonesia to Tehran to Gaza, people are using these European anti-Semitic narratives and infusing it as true Islam. How do true believers in Islam react or confront this evil?

ADNAN OKTAR: These are of no scientific value of these. They need not be taken seriously because our criterion is the Qur'an. And the Qur'an teaches love and compassion. Almighty Allah says we may marry the People of the Book, a Jewish woman, for instance. That provision is sufficient all by itself. How does a person regard his wife? As his beloved, the jewel in his crown. His wife is the person he trusts most of all. She is the mother of his children. I mean, should he look at her in the light of that document, or of the ruling in the Qur'an? Therefore, documents of no scientific worth or faith, devoid of any Qur'anic values, are not valid for any rational Muslim. I think you are wrong to be uneasy over this. Relax, trust in Allah, and never forget we are in the age of the King Messiah. Ask Allah to show the King Messiah and pray for the immediate building of the Temple of Solomon. This century will be a glorious one for Jews. Their finest years. The years when Islam comes to reign. The Jews will enjoy a Golden Age under the leadership of the person known as the Mahdi, or the King Messiah. They will enter a time of peace and happiness. The age they have been waiting for over the last 3,000 years is this century. There is no other appropriate time according to the Torah and other Judaic sources. That age will start in 2012. All Judaic scholars and sages know. It is also in the Zohar. A known fact.

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Interview on A9 TV dated December 29th, 2011

Dialogue is the only way forward

Dialogue is the only way forward

Following ratification of the ruling by the Malaysian Court of Appeals  that the name “Allah” can only be used by Muslims, Prime Minister Najib Razak once again defended the decision. What first needs to be said is that in the same way that this ruling is incompatible with the friendship of Christians and Muslims - who have lived together in Malaysia for many years -  it also conflicts with understanding of Islam itself.

Non-Muslims constitute some 40% of the population of Malaysia. The fact that copies of the Bible published in the Malay language 400 years ago used the term ‘Allah’ gives us a better idea of the problem to which this ban will lead. Alongside the question of social peace and understanding, there is no logic in religious terms in telling someone who uses the name ‘Allah’ that he must not do so. There is nothing troubling about a non-Muslim using the name Allah in prayer and worship; on the contrary, it is a cause for rejoicing for a Muslim. 

While this is going on in Malaysia, more interesting things are happening in Iran. No matter how much I say that there can be no solution until the deep state in Iran and Shiite extremism are eliminated, I still support all the initiatives, since the election of President Ruhani in Iran indicates a positive step forward for the region that will lead the way to peace and brotherhood. 

Following the election of Ruhani, major steps have been taken toward the dream of a freer Iran. Language denying the  Holocaust  is being abandoned, moderate messages from President Ruhani via Twitter on the occasion of  his U.S. visit, the telephone conversation between President Obama and President Ruhani, and President Ruhani ending his address to the U.N. by emphasizing the common values found in the Torah, the Gospels and the Qur’an are some of these strides forward. Another instance was added to these just the other day.

President Ruhani hosted Archbishop Leo Boccardi in his office. The message, accompanied by a photograph, that was published on Twitter following that meeting was exceedingly important. President Ruhani said:

“Today we have common objectives and enemies. Extremism and terrorism are our common enemies and, based on the divine teachings, human interactions and cooperation for the elimination of poverty and injustice are common objectives,” We need to have a deeper knowledge of each other’s beliefs and cultures, because nowadays, most of the gaps and enmities are rooted in unfamiliarity and lack of knowledge about each other’s cultures.”

President Ruhani’s words are actually a reflection of the moral values recommended by Islam. According to Islam, Christians and Jews are the People of the Book, and Muslims’ relations with the People of the Book are based on love and understanding. The faithfulness to the Prophet Jesus or the Prophet Moses of the People of the Book, and their loyalty to the Torah or the Gospels, are delightful things for Muslims.

Another important matter shaping Muslims’ relations with the People of the Book is that it is lawful in Islam for Muslims to eat food prepared by them, and Muslim men are allowed to marry women from the People of the Book. The fact that Allah encourages Muslims to engage in such social relations is clear proof that He wishes us to establish warm and high-level human relations with the People of the Book. Sitting down at the same table and raising children together by marrying and spending a lifetime together is a fine and appropriate response from Islam to those who strive to create division and sow disagreement between the two communities.

There may have been various conflicts and disagreements between members of the three divine faiths in the past. However, these did not originate from the essence of Judaism, Christianity and Islam, but from mistaken ideas and opinions on the part of nations, communities and individuals, and from expectations of political or economic gain. Otherwise, one of the common aims of the three divine faiths is for all people to live in peace, tranquility and security, and all opinions that reject that aim and encourage conflict are mistaken in the eyes of all three faiths.

The responsibility of sincere and sensible Christians, Jews and Muslims of good conscience is to assist one another against wickedness and wicked people, and to work together in union and togetherness. That union must be built on the basis of the principles of love, respect, affection, compassion, understanding, harmony and cooperation.

So let us be united and work together to eliminate all the causes that might lead to conflict and fighting. Let us strive together against the bigotry that hinders such an alliance. Let us love and watch over one another. Let us not make differences of belief into pretexts for conflict. Let us build upon our common beliefs for unity and togetherness.
