ISLAM  AND  INTELLIGENT  DESIGN

Intelligent design has a counterpart in the Islamic religion. Because the issues put forward by intelligent design are also included in Islamic thought. In Islamic thought, it is accepted that the order in the universe is created and governed by Allah Almighty. This issue is expressed in many verses of the Quran.

In Islamic thought, the term “nizâmü’l-âlem” (Order of Cosmos) is generally used to express the order in the universe. Muslims have developed a rich terminology around the concept of order. The main source of inspiration for this terminology is the numerous verses of the universe that depict the universe with the concepts of order, design, measurement, calculation, balance and law.

The word order does not appear in the Quran. However, there are many verses in the Quran that describe intelligent design. The creation, functioning and purpose of the world are perfectly explained with these verses. These explanations do not actually contradict today’s understanding of science.

Allah Almighty states in the Quran that He created everything according to a measure with the following verses:

“He is a God to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. He has never begotten a child, nor has He any partner in dominion. He created everything and decreed it according to a measure.” (Al-Furqan, 25/2)

“And We have created everything according to a decree.” (Al-Qamar, 54/49)

Everything has been given a creation or nature specific to itself according to this measure.

“Moses said, “Our Lord is the One Who gives form to all things and then shows them their path.” (Taha, 20/50)

Allah has not only created and given them existence, but has also arranged creation according to a certain design and has shown His creations which path to follow in order to fulfill the purpose of their existence.

“It is He who creates and orders. It is He who ordains and guides.” (A’la, 87/2,3)

There is no irregularity in Allah’s creation. It is not possible to find a gap or irregularity in the cosmic system.

“He created the seven heavens one above the other. You will not find any irregularity or inconsistency in the creation of the Most Merciful. Turn your eyes and see, do you see any irregularity?” (Mulk, 67/3)

In these verses, Allah draws attention to the fact that the movement of celestial bodies occurs in accordance with a numerical order in accordance with a law of balance. In the same verse, the word stars refers to all celestial bodies, and the word trees refers to all the beings of the earth, and it is implied that all natural beings submit to the laws established for them through the act of prostration.

“Do you not see how all those in the heavens and those on the earth, the sun, the moon, and the stars, the mountains, the trees, all the animals, and many of them, prostrate themselves to Allah. And many of them are justly punished. And whomever Allah humiliates, there is no honorer for him. Indeed, Allah does what He wills.” (Hajj, 22/18)

The idea of ​​intelligent design has put forward the idea that the creation and functioning of the universe cannot be due to random processes and coincidences. It has been put forward that the universe is an intelligently organized design and that its author is God. The proof of this idea has been presented in various ways by scientists such as Michael J. Behe, William A. Dembski and Stephen C. Meyer. However, evolution theorists who do not believe in creation reject these ideas and regard them as “garbage”, useless claims and, in a sense, with a cynical attitude.

The real struggle here is between belief in God and lack of belief. Those who do not believe in the existence of God seek to justify their disbelief by presenting their own fallacies and assumptions as science. In fact, the views they put forward contradict their own understanding of science. Because the things they claim are not testable and falsifiable. Because it would take tens of thousands of years for their claims to be tested. However, the life of humans is not enough for this.

THE  BOOK  OF  ENOCH

The book published today under the name “The Book of the Prophet Enoch” was first found in a cave in Abyssinia (now Ethiopia) by James Bruce in 1773. The name Enoch is Hebrew and is the same as the name Hanok. For this reason, it is also known as the “Book of Hanok”. There are two different copies of this book. One was found in a monastery in Russia and preserved in Slavic. Its name is “The Book of the Secrets of Enoch”. The second book is the “Book of Enoch” found by James Bruce.

Enoch is a Hebrew word and is mentioned in the Bible (Tanakh). However, this book is not mentioned in the Bible. We know that around 90 AD it was determined which religious texts would be included in the Bible. However, there is no “Book of Enoch” among them.

It is not known exactly when the Book of Enoch was written. However, according to what is said in the book, it is understood that it was written before Noah’s flood. In this case, why was this book lost or abandoned? The answer to this is unclear. However, it can be assumed that the exclusion of this book may have been due to the many issues that the Jewish clergy did not like. Since the various references in the book disturbed the religious circles of the time, they were later removed from the collection of sacred texts by Constantine I, who considered them to be apocryphal and had them lost. It was also completely removed from the Torah at the First Council of Nicaea (325).

As a result of the research conducted on the Book of Enoch, it is understood that it was not written by just one person and that different people made additions to the book in the following years. It is thought that the original language of the book was Aramaic.

The statements in the Book of Enoch have led to the question of whether Enoch was a true prophet. Is the content of the book a revelation? When the chapters of the book are examined, it is seen that there are parts that are consistent with the Islamic religion and parts that are not. Since there are issues in the book that do not comply with Islam, Enoch's book does not have a divine feature. In other words, the entire book was not revealed to Enoch through revelation. All these raise the question of whether Enoch was a true prophet. When the entire book is considered, it is difficult to say that Enoch was a prophet. However, it is possible that Enoch's book was distorted by the Israelites and many imaginary and egoistic things were inserted into it. Because the Israelites have always done this throughout history. All the distortions in the Torah and Talmud are due to this reason.

Based on the details of what is narrated in the book of Enoch and the history of the prophets, some Islamic scholars have suggested that Enoch could be the Prophet Hazrat Idris (pbuh). Islamic scholars have expressed the following information about Hazrat Idris. Hazrat Idris is narrated in the Quran in the 56th and 57th verses of the Surah Maryam: “And mention Idris in the Book, for he is a truthful prophet. We raised him to a high place.” (Maryam, 19/56,57) That high place is the fourth heaven. Because according to the Miraj Hadith, Our Prophet (pbuh) saw Hazrat Adam in the first heaven, Yahya and Jesus in the second heaven, Yusuf in the third heaven, Idris in the fourth heaven, Harun in the fifth heaven, Musa in the sixth heaven, and Ibrahim in the seventh heaven.

All of these make us think that the person named Enoch in the book of Enoch may be the same person as Hazrat Idris. However, the things mentioned in the book of Enoch are not entirely of divine origin, and a large part of them are parts that people have added with their own thoughts and dreams. For this reason, it is a great nonsense for some circles to claim that this book is the first of all religious books and to think that it is possible to rule people symbolically by obtaining some secret information from it. Today, the book of Enoch can partially express a truth, but on the other hand, it is a clear example of how ancient clergymen distorted divine information.

One of the most important historical figures that esoteric movements focus on and base their research on is undoubtedly Enoch. Enoch has great importance especially in organizations such as Masonry and Kabbalism, and this figure has been influential in the formation of teachings and symbols. There are many allegorical (symbolic) language expressions in the book of Enoch. People who think that there are some secrets behind these symbols have wanted to use them. Masons, in particular, think of dominating the world by discovering the powers in these symbols. The same idea is also present in Zionists.

In addition, the symbols of Ledunian science can be effective if Allah permits. Do esoteric movements have such permission from Allah? We do not know the answer to this. However, we do not think that Allah has given permission to the Zionists in this regard. Because the Zionists have been oppressors in the world throughout history and continue to do so. Allah does not love oppressors.

Today, Jewish Masonic symbols are placed in all Islamic temples, mosques and shrines in the world. In this way, they think that they will destroy the spiritual world and power of Muslims. These are of no use to them. The Jews are struggling in vain on this issue. The spiritual powers of Muslims are in the hands of Allah's officials. However, they cannot use these powers without Allah's permission. One day, these powers will be used and Islam will once again dominate the world.

UNDERSTANDING  OF  SHIRK (POLYTHEISM)  IN  ISLAMIC  THOUGHT

All worlds exist by Allah’s will, power and intention. The performer of all actions in these worlds is Allah Almighty. No object can exist, undergo any change or move without His will. However, when people look at the events in the macro and micro spaces around them, they observe that events occur for some reasons. As a result, they come to the conclusion that the effective power in events is these reasons. However, Allah Almighty has connected the events in the world to each other with reasons. The power and will that enable the causes to emerge and have an effect is again Him. The order in the universe is governed by the names and attributes of Allah. In this respect, the universe (nature) is passive and its perpetrator is God.

When people cannot see the real perpetrator in the universe, they perceive the intervening causes as the real perpetrator. Thus, they have fallen into polytheism by thinking that there are other besides Allah. The polytheism here is associating partners with Him in the universe, which is Allah's property. However, property belongs only to Allah and is under His absolute control only. Just as people fall into polytheism in this sense in their daily lives, positive scientists also fall into polytheism when they examine events in nature. Because rational scientists cannot see the real doer in natural events and imagine other doers. Very few people think that the real doer is Allah. For this reason, polytheism is widely prevalent in people's thoughts in societies.

An ignorant person is someone who secretly or openly associates partners with Allah. The wise men know where the ignorant people will address them and what their rank is. Therefore, they do not argue with them. Because if they had tried to respond to the ignorant, they would have joined them in ignorance. However, wise people know that a person can only speak to another person by being colored by the words he spoke to him and by entering his state.

Some people accept the causes of natural events as the cause, but nevertheless believe that the causes are placed by Allah. This kind of polytheism is not condemned or denigrated. Other polytheisms are condemned and denigrated. The reason for the condemnation and denigration of these polytheisms is that they accept one or more gods before Allah.

Those who commit polytheism turn to monotheism in times of trouble and difficulty. On the other hand, in times of comfort, the polytheists do not show signs of monotheism. For example, people who travel by ship may carry signs of polytheism in their hearts. They wander in the narrowness of polytheism with thoughts such as the ship is made strong and therefore will not sink. However, when a storm arises and the ship rocks dangerously, the signs of polytheism disappear from them. They forget the things they committed polytheism to and turn to Allah and begin to pray. In this case, the person abandons polytheism and returns to true monotheism. When Allah saves them from trouble and grants them salvation, some people forget their prayers and supplications and abandon monotheism again and fall into the narrowness of polytheism.

Behaviors that are polytheism in Islamic thought: Taking one’s passions and desires as Gods; To do one's deeds for purposes other than Allah (Riya); Hidden polytheism; Accepting causes as the real doers is polytheism; Taking positive science and reason as Gods is polytheism.

Behaviors that are not polytheistic in Islamic thought: Being a Sufi is not polytheism; Being a member of a tariqah is not polytheism; Asking for prayers from saints is not polytheism; Visiting shrines is not polytheism; Believing that Hazrat Khidr is alive is not polytheism; Believing in intercession is not polytheism; Reciting a Mawlid is not polytheism; Cooking and distributing Ashura is not polytheism

WORDS  OF  ALLAH  UNCHANGEABLE

The Quran emphasizes the divine laws that are valid in both natural beings and historical events, and states that the system operates within a certain order and rule framework in both subjects. Just as there are biological laws for the life and death of individuals, there are also social laws for the life and destruction of societies. However, these laws are not mandatory and are dependent on the will of God Almighty. The Quran establishes a connection between the laws of nature and social laws, indicating that if social laws are not followed, the laws of nature come into play and prepare destruction. It is narrated that many nations, starting with the Prophet Noah, were destroyed by disasters such as floods, earthquakes, hurricanes and drowning in the sea.

There are social laws (sunnatullah) determined for man, a created being. The Quran reveals these laws through the events that past nations experienced, and informs us that prophets were sent to teach these laws, that communities living according to them were happy, and that those who violated the laws were ultimately miserable. In order to inform that the sunnatullah is not coercive, the Quran expresses it as conditional propositions, sometimes attributing it to man and sometimes to Allah. For example, in the verse, “Allah will not change a nation until it changes its attitude and behavior” (Rad, 13/11), it attributes change to man’s actions, and in the verse, “When Allah wanted to destroy a country, He ordered its spoiled rich people to come to their senses, but they continued to do evil and were destroyed for this reason” (Isra, 17/16), it attributes change to Allah’s will.

All the phenomena in the universe, the rules of physics and the subtleties and orders in their functioning are all the words of Allah Almighty. All the words of Allah express a separate rule and no one can change the rules of these words. If objects attract each other in the universe according to the law of gravity, this is a word of Allah. It is His rule. It is not possible for people or any other power to change these rules.

The law of gravitation of masses is a result of Allah's ruling as He wishes. People only have a little bit of information about the functioning of this existing ruling. This information is obtained through reason and senses. However, most of the secrets of this ruling word are still unknown to people today. For example, the nature and reason for the existence of a large gravitational force in black holes are unknown.

There are countless similar phenomena and physical laws in the universe. All of these are the words of Allah and are the rulings willed by Allah. For example, the Corona virus is a word of Allah. The Corona virus, which emerged by His command, has shown its effect all over the world. The fact that this virus makes people sick and kills them is also a ruling of Allah. Everything has fallen into place with this ruling. It is not possible for this ruling to change.

Humans are being tested in this world. All living beings in the universe have duties in this world. These duties also impose a responsibility on them. These living beings will be questioned in the hereafter about whether they have fulfilled the duties given by Allah properly. In fact, the Corona virus is also responsible for whether it has fulfilled the duty given to it. The Corona virus also hopes to have passed this test.

These issues that the human mind has difficulty grasping and perceiving prevail as the words of Allah. The truth is not only what we perceive with our five senses. Apart from these, those who have a little share of Allah's knowledge can have some knowledge, even a little, about the provisions of Allah's words. This knowledge increases the person's faith and wonder. This is the real Islam. This can only be learned through the knowledge of secrets, that is, Sufism. This knowledge is Allah's Garden of Heart. It is known that Allah informs His servants whom He wishes, in a small amount, from here.

Despite our explanations above, some theologians believe that the words of Allah can be changed. We will discuss and criticize their views on this subject in this article.

The verses of the Quran are not bound by time and space. If they were bound by time and space, this would have already been stated in the Quran. Since there is no such statement, it is not possible to change the verses of the Quran according to time and space. The development of Western civilization is not a complete human development. Western culture is not a culture that can be completely adopted either. A secular civilization has no value in terms of Islam and humanity. Because secular civilizations are open to exploiting people, and this is how it is already implemented. Secular culture allows all kinds of immorality (adultery, prostitution, alcohol, cruelty) that Islam does not accept. Therefore, secular culture does not actually serve the good of people. In fact, secular culture always benefits from chaos and wars. Wars are its source of life. Thus, big capital earns big money by selling weapons, medicine and technology and allows its own people to benefit from it a little. This money is contaminated with the rights and blood of other people. Such an understanding of culture is never a true understanding of civilization.

REBUTTALS  TO  PRO-GLOBALIZATION THEOLOGIANS

Islam is a religion that has the capacity to enlighten the entire world and produce solutions to all its problems with its accumulation from the past. However, these solutions do not serve the understanding of the Western power centers. It opposes the exploitation of people. It foresees the establishment of true justice and equality throughout the world. Of course, this does not suit imperialist capitalism, which aims for globalization. In this case, they are trying to eliminate Islam with accusations of terrorism. Therefore, Islam has no partnership with imperialism in globalization.

In fact, Islam is the only power that explains that the goals aimed at globalization produce truly unfair results for people and can prevent this. Therefore, Islam should not be within globalization, but outside of it and should take a stance in opposition to it. It should stand against the ideas of Muslims who are inclined to imperialists. Because as a divine religion, Islam is never on the side of the oppressor, but on the side of the oppressed.

There are theologians who try to melt Islam in the same pot with other religions. They propose that Islam is open to dialogue and therefore can take part in globalization together with other religions in dialogue. However, it has been proven what the interfaith dialogue aims for. It has been shown that the aim of this dialogue is to spread Christianity in Asia. Those who propose that Islam should be in dialogue with other religions, knowing these facts, are on the wrong path.

It is a fact that the defeated in Islamic history were not destroyed and their beliefs were not interfered with. We see the best example of this in the Ottoman Empire. Similarly, Islam did not discriminate between religions in scientific relations.

Muslims can live in western Christian societies by fulfilling the requirements of their own religion. There are those who put forward this situation as proof that one can become globalized while remaining Muslim. However, it is ignored what kind of obstacles these Muslims encounter while living their religious lives. Muslims living in the West are truly under threat at all times. They are subject to many threats and acts of terror. The native people of the West are the fathers of the idea of ​​globalization, which portrays Muslims as terrorists. With these smears, the lives of Muslims become difficult in countries where other religions predominate and they are in mortal danger.

However, the opposite is not the case. No Christian or Jew is threatened in Muslim countries. This is due to the principles of Islam. However, those who put forward globalization are trying to threaten and endanger the lives of Muslims by declaring them terrorists. It is really a great mistake and error to interpret it as Muslims can keep up with globalization. It is really difficult to understand the purpose of those who think so. It has been known since the old days that there are many theologians who serve imperialist states in Muslim societies.

Imperialism chose Islam as its enemy after the collapse of Soviet Russia. It established various terrorist organizations to show its own people that these views were correct. Although the members of terrorist organizations such as Al Qaeda and ISIS appear to be Muslims, those who run them are the spies of imperialism. These spies disguised as Muslims declared that they carried out their actions in the name of Islam and prepared the ground for all Muslims to be labeled as terrorists. The September 11 attacks are actions that require very high technology. It is not possible for people living in caves in Afghanistan to carry these out. Although it is known that these attacks were organized by imperialists and that Muslims were used, it has not been possible to explain the whole world about this. Because the power of all media is in the hands of imperialists. They use this media power to impose the opposite of the truth on people and declare all Muslims and the religion of Islam as terrorists. People who are influenced by this propaganda think that Muslims are terrorists and threaten and massacre Muslims in every region they live in. This is the game of imperialist globalists. As long as the power of the media cannot be controlled, this propaganda will find supporters in other societies. It is not possible to prevent this. This is a power struggle.

Unfortunately, Muslims have lost their political, economic and social power thanks to politicians, scientists and intellectuals who cooperate with imperialists. In this case, Islam is not capable of reversing this situation today. Trying to do this by joining the ranks of globalization would be a kind of suicide. This would mean surrendering oneself to one's executioner.

In such an environment, the duty of Muslims is to examine the facts of the events very well and not to compromise the basic principles of Islam. It is possible to achieve a just and peaceful world order again by strictly adhering to the commands and prohibitions of the Quran and the Sunnah. There is no other way to do this. Therefore, Muslims should be suspicious of the pro-globalization publications of theologians and thoroughly investigate the reasons behind them. They should read the writings of Sunni scholars on this subject and not compromise their Islamic beliefs and values. Only in this way can success be achieved. Success comes from Allah.

“Do not weaken, do not grieve. If you are truly believers, you are surely superior.” (Al-İmran, 3/139)

SUFI  CRITIQUE  OF  MORAL  PHILOSOPHY

Moral philosophy is derived from the Greek word ethike etos (custom, morality). Another name for moral philosophy is "ethics". Moral philosophy examines the problems related to the moral behaviors of people in their personal and social lives and evaluates human behaviors. However, the subject of moral philosophy is not all human behaviors, but free and conscious behaviors. In other words, moral philosophy is an examination of human conscious actions.

According to moral philosophy, morality is the entirety of the principles that people determine for themselves in order to live in harmony within a society. In this sense, morality is the rules of behavior that exist in certain proportions in every society, independent of philosophy. Therefore, while morality is a value judgment that determines a factual form of behavior, ethics is the branch of philosophy that investigates, examines, explains and evaluates this value judgment.

It is accepted that the beginning of moral philosophy emerged with the beginning of the ancient age. Socrates (469 BC - 399 BC) is shown as the founder of moral philosophy. In ancient times, the understanding of morality focused on social ethics rather than individual ethics. In this understanding, the goal is the collective happiness of people. However, slaves were not considered equal to other people in this evaluation and the understanding of ethics was considered only for free people. After ancient times, with the rise of Christianity in the West, an ethical understanding whose source was God emerged. This understanding was rational and involved will. For a long time, ethics only included views originating from God. From the 15th century onwards, deviations were seen from the understanding of ethics centered on God and religion. During this period, an ethical understanding based on reason, isolated from religion and distanced from theology, dominated. While some philosophers had an ethical understanding compatible with materialist philosophy, some put forward an ethical understanding that had elements similar to the understanding of virtue and morality in Eastern philosophy. Basic concepts such as good and evil have been defined in different ways by many philosophers. However, what is common to almost all of them is the explanation of concepts such as morality, virtue, selfishness, goodness and evil with reason. Philosophy has sought answers to various questions such as whether the concept of ethics exists, whether the concept of ethics is universal, what good and evil are, whether there is a universal moral law, etc. with methods based on reason.

Today, philosophers continue to be interested in the question of what people should and should not believe, or how they should and should not behave. They are also interested in the origin of accepted moral principles, under what conditions these principles can be considered reasonable, and which principles can be accepted as true. Are these principles a product of human thought? Is their source God? Is there more than one source? There are supporters of each option here.

Many philosophers treat God's commands and prohibitions as if they were their own thoughts. In other words, they think that God thinks like them. In this way, they deify their minds. They accept that people's moral intuitions are the ultimate criterion. However, because people's intuitions are different from each other, moral philosophers cannot find common ground.

According to some philosophers, through man's thought on the nature of things, God's basic moral criteria and their application to our daily lives can very well be discovered with reason. This means that the human mind can think about the content of revelation without revelation. This means that the human mind is deified.

Good morality is one of the most important goals of Islam. Because Allah Almighty has defined and praised good morality in many verses. The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) also has many hadiths regarding this. Therefore, the duty of a Muslim is to know what good morality is from the perspective of Islam and to work with all his might to achieve it.

However, today in our society, the moral philosophy of the West is introduced as good morality. The words of many moral philosophers are served in the media. In this way, attempts are made to spread non-Islamic ideas and beliefs in society. Muslims need to be very vigilant against these activities. Concepts such as goodness, beauty, happiness, and freedom are explained to people based on the moral philosophy of the West. In the article above, we have explained in detail that the moral philosophy of the West is contrary to Islam. Accordingly, Muslims must protect themselves against these wrong ideas. For this reason , they must learn what true Islamic morality is. In order to learn true Islamic morality, the books of Ahl-i Sunnah scholars must be read.

The good morality of Islam is what will save Muslims and Muslim societies in this world and the hereafter. Therefore, in order to experience happiness in this world and the hereafter both individually and collectively, we must equip ourselves with the attribute of good morality. It is obligatory for every Muslim to learn the verses and hadiths on this subject. By implementing this obligation, we will ensure that Islam is exalted and dominant in the world again. Let no one have any doubt about this. Because every society sees the reward of what it has done. If the majority of a society does not live by the beautiful morality of Islam, that society is condemned to live in instability and turmoil. This is a sunnah of Allah.

THE  WİSDOM  OF MAN  BECOMING A CALIPH

The word caliph is derived from the root "half", which means "behind" and is the opposite of the word "before". It is also used in the Quran as "halāif" and "hulāfa" in plural.

When the caliphate was given to Hz. Adam (as), it also included knowledge and prophethood. According to the above verses, Allah Almighty says, "I will appoint a caliph on earth and appoint a representative in the realm of the world." However, it is not said that He will create a prophet, a scholar or a servant. Allah Almighty also used the same expression for Hz. David (as) and said, "O David! We have indeed made you a caliph on earth." He did not use the words prophet, messenger or scholar. Because all of them are already within the caliphate.

The existence of the universe is a perfect structure. The imperfections observed in existence are actually due to the perfection of existence. If there were no imperfection in existence, its perfection would also be imperfect. Allah Almighty has definitely not left anything out. In fact, He has given the right of creation to even imperfection. This is the perfection of the universe.

For Allah, there is a perfection worthy of Him. For man, there is a perfection that only man can accept. Whoever falls short of this perfection among people, the deficiency in the world is due to their deficiency. Because man also falls within the scope of the world. The perfection of divinity has been manifested in the sharia. This perfection cannot be demonstrated with rational evidence. In order to see the perfection and excellence that befits Allah Almighty, the sharia has brought both proofs of purification and imitation. Thus, the minds have been amazed. This is the divine perfection and excellence.

Man is the perfection of the universe, the universe becomes perfect only with man. Man is not perfect with the universe. People are divided into two groups. Some people do not accept perfection and excellence. However, they are the sum of the universe. They are a small sum that has been extracted from the big universe. The other group of people accept perfection. According to the aptitude of this person, Allah Almighty manifests His perfection and all His names in that person. This group of people Allah has made His caliphs and has dressed them in the robe of wonder.

In the beginning, the spiritual world existed as a whole, it was not divided into parts. There was the unseen world, but there was no world of witnessing. When the soul joined this world, when it was properly cared for and trained, it passed through the universal and particular worlds and became the caliph of God in the unseen and witnessing worlds. There was no power and tool in the world of spirits to be a caliph of God’s divinity. It possessed this tool and power in this world and reached the perfection of the rank of vicegerency.

Caliphate is the power of ruling (dominance) given to man by Allah in this world. If a person wishes, he can execute his judgment, or if he wishes, he can surrender this power to Allah and leave the authority between his servants to Allah. However, if a divine command comes, he does what is necessary. For example, as it was the case with Hz. David, in this case, there is no way to reject Allah’s command.

Here, what is forbidden, is “the desires.” For example, the case of Hz. Osman is like this. Hz. Osman did not take off his caliphate dress until the moment he was killed. Because he knew what belonged to Allah Almighty in him. The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) had forbidden him to take off the robe of caliphate. Whoever receives a divine command regarding ruling must appear with it. That person is always supported by Allah. But whoever does not receive such a divine command has a choice. He may appear with it if he wishes or not and remains hidden with Allah. It is better to abandon manifestation in this way.

The ability to rule the universe was not given to man just because he is human. This ability was given to man with a Divine power. Because only the attribute of God can rule in the universe, no one else can. Therefore, this power is a kind of test for man. This power is not a measure of honor for man. If this power had been given to him as a measure of honor, then this power would have been realized with him in the hereafter. We understand this from the warning in the following verse: “…and do not follow your desires…” (Sad, 38/26).

Man is warned against following his desires and passions. This is a kind of test for him. Allah Almighty has given the quality of caliphate only to the people of Allah in this world. On the other hand He has given the power of ruling to both the good ones and the bad ones. However, Allah Almighty has ordered us to listen to them and obey them. Allah Almighty has said: “If they are unjust, it is for you and against them.” This is a state of being tested.

If knowledge and prophethood are found together with the power of sultanate and property, the power and influence of each of them will increase by uniting. However, this is a test for the owners of sultanate and property. Sultanate and power are a great means to get close to Allah and to become the caliph of His Sultanate. For this reason, sultans have become the shadow of Allah. The shadow of something becomes the caliph of that thing. However, in reality, being the caliph and shadow only occurs as long as they possess the attributes of caliphate.

WEST’S  FIGHT  WITH  ISLAM

Today, Islam stands as an obstacle to the international exploitation system in the political and economic exploitation of the Islamic world by Western. Islam has been the target of Jews and Christians since the day it emerged. Throughout Islamic history, they have struggled against Islam with all kinds of trickery and fraud in order to degenerate and destroy it. There are many examples of this in history. These anti-Islamist efforts have continued to this day under various guises.

Hostility towards Islam was used as a polemic subject. The Christian hostility towards Islam had blinded them so much that neither the scholars nor the people could be objective on this issue. They told lies and misrepresentations about Islam for the higher purposes of the church. This tendency towards lies and slander continued until the end of the 17th century. This led to the emergence of a social hostility and hatred towards Islam in Europe.

The fear and hatred towards Islam in the West resulted in the Crusades, which were repeated for years. When Christianity became stronger in Eastern Europe, they wanted to spread in Asia and the Middle East. However, the Muslims who emerged in Anatolia prevented this goal. These Muslims were the Seljuk Turks. When Sultan Alp Arslan defeated Byzantium in Malazgirt in 1071, hostility towards Islam increased in Europe.

In the 18th and 19th centuries, many travelers from Europe traveled to the farthest corners of Islamic lands. These travelers took Muslim names, dressed like Muslims, and were thus able to move freely among Muslim communities. The aim of these travelers was not simply to get to know a country, but to have subversive aims. Some of them were there to prove that Christianity was superior to Islam, while others were there for commercial exploitation and to obtain political intelligence. Commercial pretexts were a cover for political domination. For example, the British East India Company and the Dutch East Indies Company were designed solely to colonize India and Indonesia.

In the 19th century, orientalism became an independent branch of science. Orientalism was brought into line with the interests and political concerns of influential and imperialist rulers. Orientalists helped legitimize the invasions of the colonizers and guided the pacification of the colonized countries. In this way, orientalism became an important tool for the destruction of Islam. Orientalism brought a westernized interpretation to Islam. It distorted Islamic concepts such as Jihad, Ummah, Tawhid from their true meanings. Thus, political dominance in Islamic countries was brought to a state that was foreign to the essence of Islamic social and religious life.

Western missionaries came to colonized Islamic countries and tried to change the religions of Muslims. The West never forgot that Anatolia was taken from them and turned into an Islamic country. The American Foreign Missions Board sent missionaries to Turkey since 1820. The first Protestant church was established in Turkey in 1847. The preaching of the Bible was done through educational institutions, hospitals, homes for the homeless, and radio broadcasts. However, these activities did not yield much result. Because the Christian population in Turkey is still below 1%. Therefore, Islam is the biggest obstacle to Christianity in Turkey.

The social science initiative was a step taken to secularize Islam and separate religion from politics. However, was it possible to use these theories in the study of Muslim societies? The strategy followed here was to inject Western secular ideas into the minds of Muslims. One of these ideas that succeeded was the idea of ​​“nationalism.” The Islamic Ummah was divided into struggles centered on nationalism. However, when these countries gained their national independence, they built all their political and economic developments on the models taught to them by the former colonialists. No colonized Islamic country has been able to rid its minds of these colonial traces. Such minds, which have been influenced by colonialism, continue to follow Western ideas not only in terms of nationalism, but also in concepts such as democracy, socialism, political parties, and parliament.

Islam has been made the whipping boy of the Western media in every subject. Islam represents barbarism for the right wing, medieval theocracy for the left wing, and unpleasant exoticism for the moderate group. According to them, it is unimportant for Western people to know anything about Islam. Therefore, it should not be expected that Islam will be treated honestly in the Western media.

One of the countries that is most prominent in the West’s opposition to Islam is England. Since the British saw Islam as a real obstacle in their exploitation of Islamic countries for centuries, they did everything they could to destroy Islam. The main cause of all the pain, division and misery in the Islamic geography in the last century is England. Other Western imperialist countries are its collaborators. The British were the ones who tried to degenerate and destroy the religion of Islam by using masons such as Afghani, Abduh and Rashid Riza in Egypt.

While Westerners always try to portray Muslims as violent and barbaric, the fact that this is not the case and that the West is more violent and barbaric has been proven by the following events.

WHAT  KIND  OF  MUSLIMS ARE  WE ?

It is stated that most of our society is Muslim. When people are asked, everyone answers, Alhamdulillah, I am a Muslim. Are we really Muslims? No one asks this question to themselves, or maybe they don't want to ask it. Is this because he doesn't want to hear the answer, or is he confident and sees the question as unnecessary?   In our opinion, every Muslim should ask himself this question and interrogate whether he is a complete Muslim. However, in order to do this, one must investigate what should be understood from being a complete Muslim. The sources for this research are the Holy Quran, hadiths and works written by Sunni Islamic scholars.

When these sources are examined, it is seen that the behavior and thoughts of people in today's Muslim societies on many issues are contrary to true Islam and contradict basic Islamic principles. For this reason, Muslims need to put themselves in order and correct their behavior and thoughts according to the principles of true Islam.

Allah Almighty informs us in the first 10 verses of the Surah Al-Muminun how the basic behavior of Muslims should be. It gives good news that those who follow the provisions of these verses will be the heirs and will be the believers who will be saved. Therefore, it is necessary to question how well we comply with the provisions of these verses.

Our Lord, who informs us that we will be called to account at the end of the day, tells us that being on the right path is only possible by following the Qur'an. It is stated that the Quran is an advice to the worlds (humans and jinns), therefore salvation can only be achieved by listening to its advice.

Illegal relationships (adultery) are spreading in our society. Imitating Western society as civilization is an abnormality imposed on us. So-called progressives who try to make adultery, are actually causing the collapse of the entire moral structure of society. Presenting adultery which is free in the West, as progressive and modernity is a sabotage aimed at the collapse of the moral structure of society. Those who cannot eradicate Islam from our country by force of arms are trying to spread adultery in order to sabotage the Islamic morality of our people. Muslims must be awake against this propaganda.

Most people who go online are exposed to sexual, lustful and enjoyable publications. These inevitably affect people and cause them to deviate towards haram. In addition to legal restrictions against them, education is also essential. The negativities that these publications will cause should be thoroughly analyzed and explained to people. The biggest responsibility here falls on the state and the family. In order for the society to be healthy and strong, relations between people must be regulated in accordance with Islamic rules. For this purpose, broadcasts on television and the internet must be made in accordance with Islamic standards. To some, this may be perceived as reactionary. But this is completely wrong. Because we see what the opposite situation has brought society to today. In our country, harassment and murders of women are increasing, and drug and alcohol consumption is at its peak. There is only one way to prevent them, and that is to implement the basic prohibitions and orders of Islam.

Western capitalism sees women as a sexual object and uses them as a tool to make money. For this reason, he tries to get people to do what he wants by provoking them and numbing their brains with sexuality. Women in low-cut clothing are used in all advertisements. Women's sexuality is highlighted in every advertisement. Naked models appear in car advertisements. However, the seller does not sell this naked model together with the car. So what are their purposes? Their aim is to impress the audience. Those who watch such a play become slaves of their own souls and the commands of the devil because they think it is modernity.

But Muslims do not think so. The headscarf of Muslim women is a light that protects them. By covering up and wearing hijab, Muslim women prevent themselves from being seen as sexual objects. Only in this way can a woman have her true identity. If a woman prevents sexual arousal, then she is seen as a human being and treated as a human being. This is civilization. There is still this respect for veiled women in our society. On buses and ferries, people give seats to veiled women first. This is a result of the Islamic upbringing that has accumulated over centuries in our society. This accumulation will continue even if westerners and their fans do not want it. For this reason, women's headscarf and hijab are their means of salvation both in this world and the afterlife.

We asked the following questions in our article and answered:

Do We Perform Our Prayers in Peace? Do We Turn Away From Empty and Meaningless Things? Do We Give Our Zakat?  Do We Protect Our Chastity From Haram? Can We Avert Our Eyes From Haram? Do We Fulfill Our Trusts and Promises? Are the Bites We Eat Halal? Do We Protect the Sunnah of Our Prophet? Do We Jihad in the Path of Allah? Do We Avoid Telling Lies?Do We Help Orphans, the Poor and the Needy? Are We Trying to Become Knowledgeable? Are We Reading? Do We Apply the Moral Rules of Islam?

DEGENERATION  OF  PUBLIC  MORALITY

People are obliged to live in communities. In living together, people who are different in terms of temperament, different in terms of beliefs and culture, and who behave differently in terms of values and thinking can be kept together. However, living together also requires having some common moral values. In order to survive as a society, it is necessary to direct individuals who exhibit different psychological behaviors to certain goals. Every individual in a society has the right to be happy. A person's activity in this direction should not prevent someone else's happiness. Accordingly, individuals in a society have rights as well as duties that they are obliged to perform. For this reason, individuals should be taught what is good and right for society, their duties should be informed and promoted. In addition, it should make the individual love goodness. For this reason, the individual must be taught the purpose of creation.

Islam is a philosophy of life and a way of life. In Islam, the rules of a happy life are presented as an ideal or idea. This presentation consists of commands, prohibitions and recommendations that ensure the attainment of the highest state of mental happiness. The highest mental happiness achieved by complying with these is the goal that a person seeks and strives to achieve throughout his life. This ideal manifests itself through rules of obligation, responsibility and sanctions. This is an area where all philosophies compete to realize their moral ideas and thought systems. This area can only be shaped with the information of Allah Almighty.

Today, our society and all Muslim societies are faced with effective, dangerous and secret attacks. The purpose of these attacks is to weaken the value judgments of society.

The enemies of Islam want to destroy our country not with missiles and bombs, but by changing and transforming our understanding of Islamic morality by distorting our values. Since when could we, as a society, be so egoistic, selfish, merciless and unscrupulous? How could the people of a civilization that lends a hand and help to the stranded, the needy, the strange, the homeless, children and the elderly come to this point? How did we become disconnected from justice, truth, honesty and morality and turned into a society that deceives others for the sake of its own interests and exhibits rude, ill-tempered, liar and dishonest behavior. Why have we become so fond of this world and possessions? What's happening to us? Where are we drifting?

We started to lose our national culture, our values, our children, and our national and Islamic family structure. We have lost our connection with our history and ancestors. We have lost our pure life and our understanding of halal and haram, which are completely unique to us. We believed like Muslims, but we thought like materialists and emulated Machiavellian lives. We began to flounder with the spiral of Western culture and as a result, we lost confidence and belief in ourselves and the future.

Violence and sexual aggression cannot be a part of life in the Muslim Turkish society! We are anesthetized, alienated, and our self-identities are transformed. Every day, with movies and videos on television and the internet, rosy and virtual lives, dreams of being a model, an artist, a fancy life, making easy money without working hard, stealing someone else's rights, illegitimate lives and wannabes are injected into the minds of the youth. Thus, the lives of individuals and society are corrupted and destroyed.

It is not possible to ignore the attacks on the moral values of our society. Preference for moral understandings based on reason and individuals rather than the orders and prohibitions of Islam is increasing. By declaring war on the religion of Allah, Muslims are being confronted with fabricated religious concepts and distorted ideas. Under the name of Moderate Islam, Modern Islam and Interfaith Dialogue, young people are being pushed out of the true understanding of Islam.

O Muslims! If you realize how serious the situation is, you should thoroughly examine the factors of degenerating, which we will discuss in detail in our article and try to regulate your behavior accordingly in accordance with Islamic rules. Only in this way will true salvation in both this world and the hereafter be possible.

The factors of degeneration are : We Abandoned Truth and Justice, We Abandoned Truth and Honesty, Brotherhood and Friendship Abandoned, Respect and Love Abandoned, We Abandoned Unity and Cooperation, Responsibility and Obligation Abandoned , We Abandoned Peacemaking.

The basic principles of Islamic morality come to life in the characteristics that Muslims display as virtues. Societies formed by people who have these virtues are safe, healthy and prosperous in every respect. However, societies where people who do not have these virtues are in majority are unsafe, unhealthy and unhappy. The result of lack of virtue is the corruption of the morals of societies. This is because our people have adopted secular/modern moral principles based on Western culture. We hope that our people will abandon this secular morality, which is contrary to their essence, and return to the Islamic morality that this nation has lived by for centuries. Our society has no other way of salvation.

ISLAM  AND  MODERNITY

Modernity is the name given to a system of social values that emerged with the Enlightenment philosophy in Europe in the 18th century and spread all over the world over time. In general, it means being against tradition and breaking away from it. This understanding is inherent in all transformations and changes in the individual, social, economic and political fields.

Modernity has expelled the transcendent and the sacred from human life and has placed humans, whom it has made captive to scientific knowledge, at the center of its system. He tried to define everything that is included in the sacred by the human mind. Since modernity is against transcendence (holiness), it is not possible to understand and explain transcendental phenomena such as revelation and non-physical entities such as souls and angels.

In fact, modernity is an ideology of Western centrism. It is a way of thinking that aims to build a Europe-centered world. To achieve this goal, cultural propaganda activities were continued for a long time. However, the expected result was not that bright. After the 1970s, these activities lost their appeal. Because the war and terror that surrounded the world after the 1970s showed people that this path was wrong and dead-end.

According to modernity, humans exist to produce and especially to consume. However, consuming less than what is produced will ensure that consumers are healthy, and the unconsumed portion will be sent to those in need, ensuring that people do not go hungry. Today, while some people consume too much, some people suffer from hunger. According to statistics, 50 years ago, the income of the richest 5% of the world was 30 times higher than the income of the poorest 5%. While this rate was 60 times 25 years ago, it increased to 114 times in 2002. This is a result and contradiction of modern understanding.

Modernity claims that it is based on rational principles such as reason and experiment. This is not entirely true. Because there are a series of paradigms on which it is based. Paradigm is a prediction that is adopted as a leading principle on any subject, whose accuracy is not doubted, and is excluded from discussion. Some of the paradigms of modernity are evolution, progress, innovation, scientism, individualism and secularization. However, each of these principles is being shaken today, and therefore representatives of modern culture are experiencing serious concerns.

Modernity is not at peace with religion. It systematized all deviations from religious values. While doing this, he established himself here by creating a gap between social life and religion. As a result, generations that were faithless, stray and had no ideals were created.

Modernity, which tries to construct the world order with reason and uses the logic of enlightenment philosophy, knows that the only phenomenon that will disrupt its fiction is religion. For this reason, he wants to remove it from all social areas. Thus, it tries to prevent religion from intervening in the production and consumption process in society due to moral concerns. For this reason, it keeps religion under surveillance and control with the principle of secularism. The simplest example in this regard is exploitation. Capitalism's main purpose is profit and it exploits the people it governs. Religion is completely against exploitation.

Modernity tried to bury religion in history, but today Islam, the religion it fears most, has emerged alive. They are trying with all their resources to eliminate the religion of Islam. However, it is impossible for them to succeed in this. Islam is a stumbling block to modernity. Because there are serious reactions against modernity in Islamic countries.

However, the religion of Islam is neither for nor against modernity. There are elements that he will accept and elements that he will not accept. What is important for Islam is its own value system. This is a system of divinity, at the core of which is the belief that Allah is the only deity and power. This is where they part ways with modernity. Because modernity has created a systematic polytheist world that fights against the monotheistic religious tradition.

There are very harsh criticisms of the paradigms of modernity from the perspective of Islam. Unfortunately, these criticisms are not taken into account by modernists. They do not want the religion of Islam to help them get rid of their own contradictions. Because they are fundamentally against the religion of monotheism. Another dilemma for him is that he is trying to eliminate the criticisms of Islam, the religion of monotheism, by force, and they have now realized that this is not possible. But there is no other option for them. They will be even more violent in their opposition to religion. This shows that their understanding of culture will collapse even faster. Because there is only one complete power and perfect power in the universe, and that is the power and strength of Allah Almighty. Resisting this will only cause the resister to collapse.

CONCEPT  OF  LOVE  IN  RELIGIONS

Love is an important element in a person's life and his religious belief. Sufis think that love is the secret of human existence and the creation of the universe. Because it is reported that Allah Almighty said: “I was a hidden treasure. I loved that I was known, that's why I created the creatures and gave them blessings. They also knew me.” With this word, God Almighty informs us about Himself. Allah Almighty created love with His own self. This love is undoubtedly the reason for the emergence of all existing beings.

Worship actually has love. Because in a verse, God Almighty wants His Messenger to address as follows: “Say: If you truly love Allah, follow me so that Allah will love you and forgive your sins. Because Allah is very merciful and forgiving.” (Al Imran, 3/31) Accordingly, the basis of worshiping Allah is the love of Allah.

The great Islamic scholar and Sufi Davud al-Kayseri (1262, 1350) says the following in his book "Ledunni Knowledge and True Love":

“Love is the result of knowledge. Therefore, knowledge is more priority and important than love. Loving God means knowing Him fully and serving Him as required. Loving other beings means protecting their existence and rights. In order for love not to be so-called dry love, it is necessary to show the results of true love. Then, true love is, in the final analysis, selfless love. This is love for God.”

True religious experience, which comes close to Islamic Sufism, has not found fertile ground in Judaism. This further deepened Judaism in its material aspect. Kabbalah could not have a positive impact on Judaism due to its esoteric gnostic tendency. Therefore, it can be said that love has lost its way at the level of spiritual experience in Judaism.

A big difference between love in Islam and Christianity emerges. Love in Christianity is gnostic and is a secret theology that tries to understand the truth of the trinity through the clerical life built on monotheistic love. This is what is known in contemporary writings as Christian mysticism. Aside from the mental possibilities/impossibilities and intellectual problems revealed by the issue of love, we can say that love in Christianity is a concept that does not have a meaning that can be accepted by science and by the mind. In the end, it leads to immorality.

Hinduism talks about love through the term “Bhakti” and Buddhism through the term “Karuna”. However, in both religions, although love requires compliance with moral rules, it serves nothing other than reaching the highest goal determined as "Nirvana". Therefore, we can say that love in the Islamic religious experience is a unique practical concept and has no equivalent in other religions.

Enemies of Islam use some people to publish books to achieve their goal of destroying and perverting Islam. In these books, attempts are made to denigrate Islam by perverting the understanding of love in Islam. The authors of these books keep their identities secret. There is no information about their CV in their books. No information is given about where these people received education. These books are published only so that a lot of nonsense against Islam can harm people's beliefs. Muslims should be vigilant against these people and books and should not be deceived by their black propaganda. They should learn their knowledge about Islam from the books of Sunni scholars.

Some so-called sectarian enemies of Islam are trying to degenerate the basic beliefs and worship of Islam by using the concept of love. According to them, Allah does not need the worship of His servants. Therefore, it is enough for Muslims to love Allah. There is no need for them to perform acts of worship such as prayer or fasting. Efforts have been made to spread these ideas among Muslims for years. Those who do this do not comply with the principles set by Islam in any way. Not only do they not perform religious duties such as prayer and fasting, but their women dress revealingly and immodestly. Men and women sit on each other and sing hymns. They think in this way they will gain Allah's consent. Alas!

Some of these people are deliberately responsible for the project of destroying Islam. These people try to lead other people out of Islam by leading the sects and communities they founded. In return, they certainly provide financial benefits.

Most of them have a Mevlevi appearance. They constantly commemorate Hazrat Mevlana and Yunus Emre. But they do not take into account the lives and advice of these two important Sufis. What kind of recklessness? The behavior of these people will cause them to be disappointed in both worlds.

People who follow these people like to follow the things they recommend to them. Because it is difficult to their souls to pray and wear the hijab, they think that loving Allah is enough for them. Alas! What kind of ignorance? This people will understand the truth one day, but it will be too late.

Enemies of Islam have been using sects to pervert the religion of Islam for years. But their impact is now diminishing. Thanks to the criticism of Ahl as-Sunnah scholars, Muslims see the truth and stay away from these enemies of religion. It is certain that the enemies of Islam will not be successful. Allah will protect his religion. One day people will understand that the only salvation is in Islam.

THE  REAL  DOCTRINE  OF ZIONISM

Today, humanity is witnessing a great massacre and genocide in Palestine. Israel and the US states are killing tens of thousands of defenseless and innocent people, children and women in Palestine with the heaviest weapons. The purpose of this massacre is to realize the ambition of a group of people to dominate the world. This genocide is carried out to achieve the goals of Zionist imperialism.

Zionism is a political movement that emerged with the aim of establishing a Jewish state in Palestine. Although Zionism is generally known as rebuilding the temple of Solomon on Mount Zion by gathering all Jews outside Palestine in the acquired lands, it is actually the Jewish ideal of world domination in its true sense. Even though this ideal is not legitimate, it exists today as illegitimate. Zionism achieves illegitimate world domination through weapons and money.

Political Zionism was born with Theodor Herzl (1860,1904). Herzl began to formulate his doctrine in Vienna from 1882. He initiated the first concrete application of his doctrine, which he systematized in his book "The Jewish State", titled "Der Judenstaat" in 1894, with the World Zionist Congress in Basel in 1897. First of all,  unlike religious Zionism, Theodor Herzl is rigid until the end. He even fights relentlessly against those who defend Judaism as a religion. According to them, Jews are, first of all, a people. Theodor Herzl, whose main occupation was not religion but politics, presented the problem of Zionism in a new way.

Roger Garaudy, in his book "The Zionism File", makes the following determinations between the state of Israel and Zionism: 1) The internal policy of the State of Israel is based on racism and colonialism. 2) The foreign policy of the State of Israel is based on expansion by gaining territory. 3) The political method of the Israeli state is a kind of state terrorism.

The only principle of Zionism is to turn Judaism into a nation and a state, not a religion. All Jews in the world are considered citizens of this state. Continuous military operations are necessary to maintain this state. This state, which must constantly open a living space for its citizens, will wage uninterrupted war. All attacks and land annexation events in the history of the State of Israel arise from this immutable logic of political Zionism.

The same situation exists in today's Israeli genocide. The attacks of a small number of Hamas militants caused Israel to be pitied in some parts of western societies, and therefore the massacres committed by Israel were tolerated. It will be seen that today's Israeli military power is extremely superior compared to the military power of the Palestinians. Now it is clear to anyone with a sound mind that it is not at all unreasonable that the Jews are trying to drag America into a dead end and push it towards the third world war. If we exclude the special character of the Jews and their supporters who encourage the massacre of nations, we also see what they hide behind every moral collapse.

The political method used by the Israeli state is state terrorism. This true face and attitude of the Zionists must be known. The terror and massacres inflicted by Zionist Israel continue at full speed today. Thousands of innocent and defenseless people, women and children are killed every day in Palestine. This situation does not affect the rulers of the western states at all, and they also support Israel's genocide. Because they also want to be partners in the exploitation of the lands in the Middle East. From now on, Western words such as civilization, human rights and democracy have no value. All conscientious people condemn Israel, but they can do nothing.

The goal of Zionism is to intimidate the countries in the Middle East by committing this genocide, thus trying to protect the interests of western colonialism in this region. The rich mineral and oil deposits in the Middle East whet the appetite of the Zionist imperialists. It is thought that by capturing the riches here, Zionism's desire to take over the world and rule alone will be realized in this way. At the end of this, it is inevitable that the third world war will break out. However, the outcome of this war may not be as the Zionists expected. At the end of the Third World War, which will most likely be very bloody and destructive, Zionism's ambitions will be destroyed and the State of Israel will disappear.

We, as Muslims, believe this. The verses in the Holy Quran and the hadiths of our Beloved Prophet (pbuh) on this subject give us this hope. In addition, the discovery information conveyed to us by our Sufi brothers indicates that the end of Zionist Israel has come. According to this discovery information, the third world war will occur in 2040 and within 20 years from now, Muslim states will fight against the State of Israel and Zionist imperialism and eliminate them. Jews will suffer a great massacre in Israel. Zionists will never be able to establish a state in the world again.

This is both the hope and wish of us Muslims. We believe with all our heart that Allah Almighty will accept this hope and prayer. Because Allah Almighty is victorious in his command (Yusuf, 12/21) and is the helper of Muslims (Baqara, 2/257). Islam is the only way that will make people happy in both worlds.

ISLAM  AND  DEMOCRACY

Islam is a religion of revelation and is incompatible with people's mental systems. Allah Almighty, who created people and the universe, knows the situation of His creatures and what is best for them. This information was announced to people through verses from the Quran and hadiths. Therefore, it is necessary for the state administration to be regulated in accordance with Islamic rules in order to be beneficial to all people. Only under a government in accordance with the Islamic Sharia, all people can be happy and live a comfortable life.

The Islamic management system established by Allah Almighty does not completely coincide with the management systems created by human reason. However, while some Islamic scholars argue that Islam is completely opposite to democracy, some Islamic scholars also argue that Islam is not contrary to the basic features of democracy. Some argue that the reason why today's Islamic communities lag behind the West is that they are not democratic. While others think that Islam can overcome the problems by applying its own democratic management system.

The idea that Islam is opposite to democracy is mostly put forward by Western orientalists. For years, Islam has been denigrated in the West and Muslims have been described as terrorists. It is clear what the purpose of these incorrect evaluations is. This is an effort to gain supporters in the Western public opinion in order to seize the natural wealth of Muslim countries and exploit them. However, Islam is far ahead of the democratic system proposed by the West. The most perfect implementation of principles such as law, human rights, justice and equality exists only in the understanding of the Islamic state. None of the human management systems created by human reason can compete with Islam in this regard. There are many examples of this in history.

In democracies, the right to legislate, that is, to make laws, is exercised either by the people or by persons elected by the people. However, in Islam, the right to make laws belongs to Allah. State administrators can only define laws on matters that are not clearly stated in the Quran and Sunnah. However, these laws must be in accordance with the texts in the Quran and Sunnah.

“If you obey most of those on earth, they will lead you astray from the path of Allah.” (Surah An'am, verse 116)

This verse is to prevent corruption in society. Therefore, the decisions taken by the majority of the people are not fully correct when they do not comply with the Islamic Sharia. Therefore, Islam completely rejects the philosophy of people sovereignty.

The understanding of governance in Islam is based on the sovereignty of Allah and the caliphate of man. The purpose of man's caliphate here is to fulfill the principles (nass) specified in the Quran and the Sunnah in practice and to act with participation and consensus among Muslims in cases where there is no nass about it.

Political power represents a leadership committed to the mission of the Prophet (pbuh). Caliphate includes the meaning of deputy to the prophet and regency (acting in his place) for Muslims. The position held by the caliph is that he is the successor to the prophethood. Due to this position, the caliph is assigned to protect and spread the Islamic religion and manage the Islamic society.

Caliph (ruler) is a ruler limited by Islamic law. Within the boundaries of Islamic sharia, he must govern on the basis of justice and equality. If it goes beyond the limits of sharia, the condition of obedience to the caliph is eliminated. Since the Caliph comes to power by election, if he does not fulfill his duties, his dismissal may be decided by the selection committee, which is the representative of the ummah.

Islam is a whole. Islam is not only a system of thought and belief, but also a social system. In this respect, Islam cannot be considered separate from society and social life. It is envisaged that the rules of Islam will prevail in social dynamics.

Muslims should aim to establish an Islamic state. The guide on this path is Hz. Prophet (pbuh) and his four caliphs. If the period of the Age of Bliss is examined thoroughly, Muslims will obtain good examples and principles for the Islamic state they will establish. All our prayers and wishes are for true Islamic states to dominate the world. In this way, all people, whether Muslims or not, will be able to live peaceful lives.
