HARUN YAHYA (ADNAN OKTAR)

You can never find a man who has resisted ageing and death.

as well for those currently alive. No one can avoid this inevitable
end. This truth is revealed in the Qur'an thus:

on the Day of Resurrection. Anyone who is distanced from
the Fire and admitted to the Garden has triumphed. The life
of the world is just the enjoyment of delusion. (Surah Al

'Imran: 185)
