firmed by the person to whom he spoke. Or, Pekunlu may in his dream feel
as if he is facing "a serious threat" and advise people to read the century-old
books of Lenin. However, no matter what they do, these materialists cannot
deny the fact that they never experience the original of the events that have
happened and the people they have talked to in their dreams.

Materialists Have Fallen Into The Biggest Trap In History
The atmosphere of panic sweeping through materialist circles in
Turkey, of which we have mentioned only a few examples, shows that mate-
rialists face utter defeat, one which they have never previously suffered.
That we do not have direct experience of the original matter has been
proven by modern science and it is put forward in a very clear, straightfor-
ward and forceful way. It only remains for materialists to see and acknowl-
edge the collapse of the entire material world in which they blindly believe
and on which they rely.
Materialist thought has always existed throughout the history of
humanity. Being very assured of themselves and the philosophy they
believed in, materialists ignorantly revolted against Allah Who created
them. The irrational and unscientific scenario they formulated maintained
that matter has no beginning or end, and that none of its forms could possi-

they denied Allah and took refuge in the lie that matter was the absolute
entity. They were so confident in this philosophy that they thought that it
would never be possible to put forward an explanation proving the con-

That is why the facts as set forth in this book regarding the real nature
of matter surprised these people to such a degree. What has been explained
here has destroyed the very basis of their philosophy and left no ground for
further discussion. Matter, upon which they based all their thoughts, lives,
arrogance and denial, vanished all of a sudden.
One of the attributes of Allah is His plotting against the unbelievers.
This is stated in the verse: "They plot and plan, but Allah too plans; and
Allah is the best of planners." (Surat al- Anfal, 30)
Allah entrapped materialists by making them assume that they deal
with the original of matter and, in so doing, humiliated them in hidden ways.
Materialists deemed they knew the originals of their possessions, status,
rank, the society to which they belonged, the whole world and everything
