Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar)

Let us examine these words closely: An organization called Masonry
exists. The members of this organization have for centuries followed a
number of laws whose origins are unknown. Moreover, they are quite de-

ask why they follow them!… And, for the sake of following these laws,
they readily ignore the discoveries of science and their logical conclu-

"science"?
Another part of the article quoted above, states literally that a Mason

hollow. Like other materialists, they too, despite the fact that they contin-

ually use the terms of reason and science, insistently defend a philosophy
that has no logical or scientific support, and turn away from the facts that

indeed spellbound them, is their blind attachment to their traditions.
This shows that the teaching of Masonry is deceptive. It alienated
people from their belief in Allah, making them fall into superstition by

following empty laws, myths and legends. What is revealed in the Qur'an
about the pagans of Saba, who abandoned Allah to prostrate themselves
before the Sun, is valid also for Masonry: "Satan has made their actions
seem good to them and debarred them from the Way so they are not
