made up of individuals who trust and respect one an-
other, treat one another with understanding, are loyal to and
respectful of the state and who all live in peace, that spends its
money on the wealth of its own citizens instead of military investment,
without investing millions of dollars in armaments and employing
thousands of security personnel. And the order and equilibrium sought
by China will be established naturally.
4. Our Uighur brothers' demands for humane conditions, to live
freely according to their religion, to be able to worship as they wish, to
protect their own culture and maintain their own existence are all justi-
fied and human ones. The most effective way of bringing these about is
for the Uighur people to make a cultural leap forward, to improve
themselves with an anti-materialist and anti-Darwinist education, to in-
crease their economic strength, and strengthen themselves both materi-
ally and spiritually. The Turkic Uighur people must not forget that they
are the most important representatives of Muslims and Islam in China.
They must act as models to the Chinese people with their good man-
ners, nobility, modesty, balance and moderation. An Uighur people
who are culturally advanced and materially stronger will clearly have
wide opportunities to defend their own rights and also to describe and
spread the moral values of Islam. By Allah's leave, the future of an
Uighur society that loves Allah, protects its own national culture, is
anti-Darwinist and anti-materialist, whose members love one another,
which perfectly implements Qur'anic moral values and supports peace,
love, understanding and compassion, will be a very bright and excel-
lent one.
