What do you think about our activities in Turkey?
SIR IQBAL SACRANIE: Well, I think you are going through a very challenging time at the moment in Turkey. The pressures are coming from different angles. But I think there is some very positive work taking place as well.
ADNAN OKTAR: Masha'Allah, Masha'Allah. What does our blessed guest think about the struggle we are giving worldwide against Darwinism and materialism?
SIR IQBAL SACRANIE: I think it is a very effective work that is taking place. And this is one work, Alhamdulillah, through Dr. Adnan's work has become known worldwide in a very effective and very powerful way to fight against this rather menace to the humanity.
ADNAN OKTAR: Masha'Allah, Masha'Allah. What are your recommendations for us?
SIR IQBAL SACRANIE: Well, I think Alhamdulillah the literature which we have caught in various publications in different languages in English, in Arabic, in Turkish has been very very useful. But I think it is important that this publication should now be directed at the younger generation, at the younger children in primary schools in a very simplified way. Like the book which Alhamdulillah has been prepared but again we need to start educating at a young age, rather than at a late age. Because in a secular society the whole issue of this evolution and Darwinism is spelling out at a very young age. So we need to make sure that our view point is heard at a very early age.
ADNAN OKTAR: Masha'Allah, masha'Allah. We have a Turkish saying that goes "... as the twig is bent, so is the tree inclined." Masha'Allah, what you have just said is very important and very to the point. Especially using a plain language that people can easily understand.
SIR IQBAL SACRANIE: Indeed, indeed. The publication Alhamdulillah is very good, for us, for people like this. When my children when I passed onto them, they were very very impressed. And I've heard of course Harun Yahya's name is worldwide now Alhamdulillah. You have a very balanced way, Alhamdulillah a very balanced, very understanding, very dignified, very respectable way.
ADNAN OKTAR: Alhamdulillah, Masha'Allah. They really have formed a retaining point, a base to rely upon. I am well aware of that. Praise be to God, by the creation of God: All power belongs to God.
SIR IQBAL SACRANIE: Indeed, yes.. Yes.. It is a weight that can make a change in the whole world.
ADNAN OKTAR: Yes. Masha'Allah, Alhamdulillah. Does he have any orders for us?
SIR IQBAL SACRANIE: Order in what way? We are here at his disposal. He orders us, insha'Allah we will do as he orders.
ADNAN OKTAR: Astagfirullah, astagfirullah. We are at your disposal. May God give plentitude to your life. May He increase your radiance. Let us take the views of our brother as well. What does he have to say about these points?
Mr. UZAIR: Alhamdulillah, what I have heard from my uncle, what I have heard is your work is very good, very influential. Insha'Allah will spread all over the world.
ADNAN OKTAR: Masha'Allah. Alhamdulillah. This is the time of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). We will, insha'Allah, see Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) and the Prophet Jesus Messiah (pbuh). I am a follower of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). I am his doorman, his servit
