          Adam (pbuh), all prophets have been the genuine representatives of intel-
          lectual freedom and respect to views. The essence of all the primary con-
          cepts – freedom of justice, not putting any pressure upon anyone, treating
          everyone as a first class citizen, respecting and trusting people, not judg-
          ing anyone due to his views - which are associated with democracy, are
          present in the morality of religion. Throughout history, people have
          learned these concepts from the righteous religions revealed by God and
          witnessed its most beautiful examples during the times when people lived

          by the righteous religions.
              When we look at the times when people were oppressed due to their
          opinions and their different ideologies, members of various religions were
          humiliated, while the arts, science and architecture died out; times when
          people lost their joy in living and almost turned into robots, or when book
          burnings, murders, massacres, genocides became widespread, we see the
          influence of irreligious, atheist ideologies or those who misinterpreted

          religious morality with a radical mindset by distancing it from its essence.
              Once God's righteous religion is lived in the form it is commanded by
          God, the true justice, democracy, respect and love, that people have been

          longing for, can be experienced. Very soon, democracy, brotherhood, love,
          friendship and peace will, by God's leave, dominate the world and people
          will experience the joy, bliss and abundance of faith as much as they can.
          As one can clearly see from the signs of the verses, hadiths of our Prophet
          (pbuh) and words of great Islamic scholars, the time in which we live is the
          End Times.

              The difficult and troublesome days of the End Times will, in this cen-
          tury, come to end, and the world will enter a brand new, bright era. Com-
          municating the Oneness and Unity of God in the most beautiful and wise
          manner, and introducing people to Islam as described in the Qur'an and
          lived in the Age of Felicity lays a very important foundation for the bright
          days that we will attain in the near future.

              Do they then seek the judgement of the Time of Ignorance?

              Who could be better at giving judgement than God for people with cer-
              tainty? (Qur'an, 5:50)
