Introduction 11

While Allah has given us an opportunity in the life of this world to
reflect and derive conclusions from our reflections, to see the truth will
bring us great gain in our life in the Hereafter. For this reason, Allah has
summoned all people, through His prophets and books, to reflect on their
creation and on the creation of the universe:
Have they not reflected within themselves? Allah did not create
the heavens and the earth and everything between them except
with truth and for a fixed term. Yet many people reject the
meeting with their Lord. (Surat ar-Rum: 8)

From Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Interview on Ahi TV
(Kırşehir) on July-15 2008 …
ADNAN OKTAR: The works of Harun Yahya primarily aim at the
signs leading to faith, and the importance of the signs leading to faith.
Because it is very important for people’s faith to be strengthened
before making a proposition. It is important that they have a very
strong faith. And signs leading to faith are very important for a pow-
erful faith. The marvels of Allah in Creation, in other words. I seek
refuge in Allah from the accursed satan; Allah frequently says, "Do
they not think, do they not reflect?” in the Qur’an. This is a sub-
ject that the great and holy scholar Bediuzzaman Said Nursi discussed
as one of the greatest importance. It is a very, very important subject.
In other words, for instance, the Turkish nation has a very strong
faith. We see the effects of that faith everywhere, but this comes from
their attaching importance to the signs leading to faith, to seeing
Allah’s artistry everywhere and to being predisposed to hardship. Our
nation is predisposed to hardship.
