ADNAN OKTAR: ... Everything will be crystal clear by around 2021. The Turkish-Islamic union will be established by then. See how our unification with Azerbaijan used to be spoken of as a very remote possibility. It used to be regarded as a very, very distant utopia, Azerbaijan. Regarded as next to impossible. Armenia? Never. They were always depicted as our eternal foes. But I said we would unite with Azerbaijan, they are our brothers, and that our doors would all be opened …. They [the Armenians] were given key posts during the Ottoman Empire. We used to call them the ‘Loyal Nation.’ We will return to those former times, I said, and there will be love and affection between us. People said it would never happen. But I said it would and will. Then there was a cry from Azerbaijan. A woman shouting they did not want it. But nonetheless, and this is destiny, the road ahead is now totally clear. I said the Lachin Corridor would be opened. That was the first thing I stressed. And now the government has stressed it too, and it is being opened up. Armenia will withdraw from Nagorno Karabagh. I said that, too. It is making preparations and will withdraw. I said the border crossings would be opened up, and they are getting ready to do that. Everything I said is happening. Who caused me to say these things? Almighty Allah. People imagine that I speak through my own means and powers. But I am nothing, just a servant created by Allah. He causes me to speak, makes me His instrument. This is a key issue, Armenia. It would not have happened if we had begun with Azerbaijan. Look, I have also underlined this. It would not have happened if we had begun with Syria or with Iraq. Armenia is the key. The blood that has collected there will be released in a moment. The pressure there will all be released. Once that issue has been resolved, the whole of the Balkans and the Middle East will be resolved. Everywhere.
One end will be based on Israel. There are those lovely kids there, and we will kiss them on the cheek. There will be no more enmity and hostility toward the Jews. They are descended from the prophets. People must fear Allah. This hatred is insane, totally satanic. Allah created the Jews. Allah tells us in the Qur’an. Does such a people not exist? Yes, it does. There is such a group, and Allah created it. Allah is referring to the Jews. So how dare anyone try and destroy them? Allah says they are descended from the prophets. The Prophet Muhammed (saas) is also descended from the prophets, from that same line. They come from the same line of the prophets. Why should their 3000 years of loyalty to the Prophet Musa be a crime? What should they have done? Should they have been irreligious instead? Why are they not Muslims? If they were Muslims, there would be no People of the Book. People say they should convert to Islam, accept the Qur’an and become Muslims. But then there would be no People of the Book. They ask why Christians do not become Muslims. They say we recognize their Holy Book. But the Qur’an commands us to recognize their books. Those books are divine scriptures. But they are under no obligation to recognize our book in their belief. Almighty Allah says that is how they will be, the People of the Book.
REPORTER: The only thing that is unacceptable is violence, the violence that is going on.
ADNAN OKTAR: Yes, of course. But things will not go on like that forever. When Jesus the Messiah, he of the radiant face, comes all the People of the Book will come to believe. That is Allah’s promise. Before that, they cannot believe. That is their destiny. What need is there for hatred? Embrace them with patience, affection and love. Do not debate with them in any but the pleasantest manner, says Almighty Allah in the Qur’an, And invite them to oneness in Allah. Allah wants love and compassion from us. It is very, very wrong to sit down and engage in policies of hatred toward them. Hazrat Mahdi (as) will oppose the system of the Dajjal by uniting with the leaders of the Christian world, that is he will ally with the Christians spiritual leaders and religious Jews insha’Allah. Alliance with the People of the Book is of the greatest importance. Because we all share the same origins. And the Prophet (saas) says that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will govern the Jews with the original of the Torah. And he says he will govern the Christians with the original of the Gospels, until the coming of the Prophet Jesus. Once the Messiah has come, everything will be resolved. No power can withstand him, by Allah’s leave. No matter who the leaders are, they cannot stop him. And in any case, Islam will rule the whole world in his time. But until that time, we will show them love and affection. Once the rule of Islam has been established we will again show them even more love and affection. Allah demands love, friendship and brotherhood from us. People even hate their own kind. For example, Shiites or Jaferites or Wahabbists are all immaculate people of great taqwa. What is your problem with them? We all pray and fast and give alms, we all fear Allah and face the same kiblah. We all love the same prophets and read the same books. So where does all this hatred come from? It is an insane hatred, may Allah forbid. There is wisdom and goodness behind them. I mean, that is how Allah has created them, and they are our immaculate brothers. Allah leads them down that path and other people down another path. Thanks be to Allah, we are Sunnis, alhamdulillah. It is the system of the Dajjal that lies behind all this rage and enmity. There is a policy of setting Muslims against one another. They incite hatred of Christians and of Jews, but bow and scrape to the irreligious. You see it, how they laugh and joke with them and do their bidding. They do all they can to make themselves popular and to speak improperly against religious belief and spiritual matters. They incite highly improper moral values, in other words, completely fawning ones. They then turn round and attack Muslims, Wahabbists, Jaferites or Sunnis, even though these are people with exceeding takwa. What do they want from these people? That is how Almighty Allah has created them. But when Hazrat Mahdi (as) comes all sects will disappear, so what are we worrying about? It will be like in the time of the Companions. This is one of Hazrat Mahdi’s (as) most important duties. This has been known since the time of the Companions that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will come and eliminate all sects, insha’Allah.
