THE RESPONSIBILITY OF PEOPLE OF GOOD CONSCIENCE
|
Striving so that the moral values of the Qur'an may be spread among all
people is a responsibility incumbent upon all people of faith and good conscience. Allah has
revealed this responsibility in the Qur'an, with the words "Let there be a community among you
who call to the good, and enjoin the right, and forbid the wrong. They are the ones who have
success." (Qur'an, 3: 104). In another verse Allah tells people to "compete with each other in
doing good. Every one of you will return to Allah." (Qur'an, 5: 48). For that reason, people
must work to do all they can to call people to what is good and to support the communication
of the moral values of the Qur'an.
|
An individual may lack the material means to do this, or may be unable to
devote much time to such activities. However, someone who uses his conscience can always find
something to do within his capacities. He may not be able to print and distribute books,
produce documentaries introducing people to Qur'anic values, or to prepare websites to tell
them about Islam. In that event, what a person can do is to spread the useful work
enthusiastically performed by others.
|
It is at this point that the works of Harun Yahya represent a major source
for people of good conscience. Recommending these works, which are prepared with no commercial
gain in mind, solely to gain the good pleasure of Allah, and with enormous devotion, to others
and enabling those who have the means to buy them, and those who do not to read them on the
Internet, is of itself a great service. In this way, an individual can encourage hundreds of
his friends to read these books and articles, to watch the documentaries and listen to the
audio presentations. If each one of those friends again encourages hundreds of other%people in
that same way, then by means of those works the moral values of the Qur'an will quickly reach
a very large number of people.
|
Each of these people can recommend these books to guests in their homes, to
customers who visit their places of work, or to members of societies to which they belong. If
they happen to bring out a magazine they can encourage others to read, watch and listen to
these works in those, or to introduce the works of Harun Yahya on TV programmes if they have
connections with a particular channel. They can come up with new ideas about how these works
might reach even more people and about what can be done to spread the moral values of the
Qur'an, and can communicate these to us. Sending a message at the touch of a computer
keyboard is all that is needed. In addition, at the touch of another key they can introduce
their own acquaintances to the websites, books and other works in question.
As we have seen, there is a great deal that someone who really wants to
fulfil his responsibility in terms of communicating the message can do. What matters is for
an individual to use his mind and conscience in a sincere way. Allah has revealed this in
verses of the Qur'an:
This truly is a reminder, so let anyone who wills take the Way towards his Lord. (Qur'an, 73: 19)
Whoever heeds Allah - He will give him a way out. (Qur'an, 65: 2)
|
For these reasons, merely approving of the work carried out to communicate
the moral values of the Qur'an, without actually making any effort to support the process,
is incompatible with the concept of the conscience of a believer. Allah may hold such people
directly accountable for such behaviour in the hereafter. At a time when Muslims are under
enormous pressure in various parts of the world, especially such places as Palestine,
Chechnya and East Turkestan, it is of the greatest importance for believers to support one
another. This requires a better use of people's limited time and constant work to support
the spread of the moral values of the Qur'an. If everyone's devout efforts are combined,
whether they be great or small, then with Allah's help this will be a means whereby proper
moral values can spread to all people. At the same time, this is a responsibility which Allah
has given to all Muslims. He has revealed this command thus in the Qur'an:
Allah loves those who fight in His Way in ranks like well-built walls. (Qur'an, 61: 4)

How You Can Help
You can find out more about what people can do in order for these works
which communicate the message of the moral values of the Qur'an to reach an even wider
audience in the section titled "How You Can Help."
If you agree with the truths set out in the works of Harun Yahya and wish
these to reach even more people, then there is a great deal you can do:
- You can recommend the Harun Yahya websites to all your friends and encourage them to join these sites. You can send your acquaintances an e-mail with the Harun Yahya website links. All it takes is a touch of a keyboard button. A task lasting just a second or two will thus represent a major service in the dissemination of the moral values of the Qur'an.
- Speaking to guests, or to friends on car, bus or ferry trips, or even on foot, one can bring up topics from the works of Harun Yahya, and thus avoid wasting one's time in frivolous pursuits. There will be no need to set aside a special time for this, and time in any case spent in conversation will be spent in a wiser manner.
- You can place the books of Harun Yahya in your school or office library, in your waiting room, in your library at home, or in other such places, thus enabling people to have easier access to the facts. This will take no longer than a few minutes of your time.
- You can encourage bookshops to buy the works of Harun Yahya and to display them prominently. Again, making such a suggestion will be the work of no more than a few minutes.
- You can subscribe to the books of Harun Yahya, and take out subscriptions for others. That will allow you to learn what the Qur'an has to say about the present day, and how modern scientific advances prove the existence of Allah.
- You can follow the magazines Islamic Insight and Truths for Kids, which are inspired by the works of Harun Yahya, and recommend these to those around you.
- You can watch the Harun Yahya documentaries with your family and friends. You can even organise wider screenings. Indeed, you can copy these works and distribute them as much as in how you choose.
- You can send us an e-mail about advanced technology that we could use on our websites and in our other works. Again, all that takes is the touch of a button.
- You can culturally prepare yourself for the intellectual struggle against such perverted and anti-religious ideologies as atheism, communism and fascism by means of the information in Harun Yahya's books, and thus help lead others to the true path.
- You can find volunteer translators so that books by Harun Yahya can be translated into foreign languages. By doing that you will be a means whereby people all over the world can learn about the moral values of the Qur'an.
- You can help disseminate films and audio cassettes based on the works of Harun Yahya to local television and radio stations. You can help spread these on foreign channels and thus enable people all over the world to witness Allah's art of creation. If you have the means to broadcast films and audio cassettes you can send an e-mail to this site for free copies.
- You can assist in the publication of articles by Harun Yahya in the national and local press. Please contact us about this. You can thus have articles sent regularly to the magazines and newspapers you make contact with, if necessary, with the page layout already prepared.
- You can make contact with us and print and disseminate books by Harun Yahya without paying a copyright fee, on condition the original text is not distorted.
- You can educate yourself about the scientific invalidity of the theory of evolution and tell others about this as a conference speaker. You can increase people's awareness of such errors as materialism and Darwinism and show them how science confirms the fact of creation.
- You can assist people to see the truth by means of holding conferences on Miracles of the Qur'an, The Creation of the Universe or The Truth of Creation, either yourself or as part of an organisation.
- You can find individuals and organizations to publish and distribute works translated into foreign languages abroad. Bearing in mind the scale of the destructive effects of atheist philosophies worldwide, it is clear how urgently this needs to be done.
