(From Mr. Adnan Oktar’s live interview on Kayseri TV, Samsun Aks TV and Gaziantep Olay TV, November 18th, 2009)
ADNAN OKTAR: Allah has deliberately created unbelievers in the majority over the course of history. That is nothing surprising. Were it not for people who do not believe in Allah, people would not and could not be tested. It is easy to believe in an environment where everyone believes. The value of the test goes down then. It is more acceptable to believe in Allah in an environment in which there are a great many Darwinists and atheists. For example, fasting is more acceptable when it is hot, and performing prayer is more acceptable at moments of danger. It is more acceptable to give alms when one is poor oneself. It is more acceptable to strive on the path of Allah when one is tired and hungry. In the same way, it is highly acceptable to spread the faith when there are many atheists and irreligious people around. In other words, if everyone knew absolutely everything about Islam, why should we bother expounding it here, there would be no reason to tell everyone in such a climate.
PRESENTER: Something known to everyone.
ADNAN OKTAR: But there are gaps, and Allah creates them deliberately. That gives us a chance to describe it to people. Were there no Darwinists, I could not engage in work concerning Darwinism. Opposites are always being created, and people should not be surprised. It is like a reel of film that has been sped up in time. We are undergoing a very valuable test.
RELIGIOUS OBSERVANCES ARE EVEN MORE ACCEPTABLE UNDER DIFFICULT CONDITIONS
