Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar)
Allah is the Light of the heav-
ens and earth. The metaphor of
His Light is that of a niche in which
is a lamp, the lamp inside a glass, the
glass like a brilliant star, lit from a blessed tree, an
olive, neither of the East nor of the West, its oil all but
giving off light even if no fire touches it. Light upon
Light. Allah guides to His Light whoever He wills,
makes metaphors for humanity, and has knowledge of
all things. (Surat an-Nur, 35)
Before finding the truth, many people exist in a state of
great chaos and confusion. They are often overwhelmed by
sadness, anxiety, jealousy, despair, resentment, and hatred. The
slightest negative thing that happens to them drags them into
deep melancholy. When they embrace belief and submit to
Allah’s eternal power and might, this dark spiritual state dis-
appears immediately. This transition is called bringing out of
darkness into the light.
