"BOOKS BY HARUN YAHYA ARE BASICALLY A MEANS OF BRINGING THE MESSAGE OF QURAN THROUGH SCIENTIFIC METHODS"

The way today's society is declining is felt by every compassionate and sensible person. Due to this moral decline the social peace is ruined and it brings a direct impact on the social stability. Every wise person thinks and tries to improve this situation.

The books by Harun Yahya which I have read (For Men of Understanding, Perished Nations,The Truth of the Life of This World, Evolution Deceit) reveal that he is a person who has the compassion for this nation. Books by Harun Yahya are basically a means of bringing the message of Quran through scientific methods.

The word Islam is derived from "Salama" which means peace and through Quran the education of peace is being given to the whole humanity. The matter of Harun Yahya's books revolve around these basic teachings. In my opinion the books of Harun Yahya are a means of improving the character and morality in the society and a source of bringing peace.

In any society it is the duty of every responsible citizen to improve the character and morality of the people. The books by Harun Yahya are a big step in connection with the service of the nation and country. As a journalist these are some of my comments on the books by Harun Yahya...

"I SHOWED SOME OF HARUN YAHYA'S WRITINGS TO MANY UNIVERSITY PROFESSORS AND STUDENTS IN USA, THEY WERE VERY MUCH IMPRESSED"

As a professor of biological sciences, and a scholar who was trained all my life at the American University in Beirut, and then from the University of Illinois, USA, I was fascinated and very much impressed with the writings of Professor Harun Yahya. The number of books and videos that he has written and translated is beyond imagination.

I wish to congratulate Turkey and the people of Turkey for having a professor and a scholar like Dr. Harun Yahya. Moreover, I wish to congratulate the government of Turkey for having a professor of this nature.

If Turkey wishes to be recognized internationally, his name should be submitted for the King of Faisal Award, and to the committee of Nobel Prize winners. He deserves to be appreciated for his contributions in the field of biological sciences. In so doing, Turkey will be among the leading countries in having some of its scholars being in the front lines internationally.

I, as an American citizen, who have already published 52 books and booklets, am so much impressed with his writings. I also showed some of his writings to many university professors and students in USA. They were very much impressed, and they want the rest of his writings to be distributed worldwide. God bless Turkey and all. Ameen.

"HARUN YAHYA TAKES US ON A REMARKABLE TRIP THROUGH THE SIGNS IN THE HEAVENS AND ON THE EARTH"

Of the books by Harun Yahya which I have read "For Men of Understanding", "Allah is Known Through Reason" and "The Truth of the Life of this World" stand out as powerful treaties on the proofs of God in the Universe. Harun Yahya's scholarship proves fascinating and his style of writing infinitely readable. His books have a great impact because of the clarity and logic with which they make their appeal.

Quoting the verses of Quran and sources as diverse as Bertrand Russell and Lenin, Harun Yahya takes us on a remarkable trip through the signs in the heavens and on the earth. The author's approach to Quranic wisdom is scientific. One of the remarkable aspects of his writings is his copious illustration of Quranic teachings with examples which are scientifically verifiable facts of nature.

It is one of the ironies of life that man may observe nature right from his birth, but he seldom experiences a sense of awe in contemplating it. Though even the tiniest example in nature is enough to testify to the greatness of God, people often remain unaware of this. Harun Yahya's books, such as "The Miracle of Ant", "The Miracle of the Spider", etc. perform a great service both to the unenlightened and to the cause of religion by bringing out this reality in an excellent, easily comprehensible and convincing manner.

The author deftly presents facts upon fact, until we reach the conclusion that one of the greatest and most essential of human objectives is to recognize and interpret the numerous signs of Allah scattered not only throughout the entire universe, but also within our own selves.

He writes about this subject in such a compelling way-the text also enlivened with beautiful pictures-that the whole idea comes alive, leaving a lasting impression on the reader's mind. The reader, induced to think deeply about the hidden truths of nature, ultimately experiences an increase in his or her faith.

We pray that God may reward him for all the good works that he is doing and give him good health and a long life. And, God willing, may his pen never run dry.

"HARUN YAHYA'S EVOLUTION DECEIT IS THE SCIENTIFIC, INTELLECTUAL AND ACADEMIC DEATH BLOW TO CHARLES DARWIN'S THEORY OF EVOLUTION"

The Evolution Deceit demonstrates with evidence that the idea of evolution is a materialist dogma. It has been translated into many languages.

Harun Yahya's Evolution Deceit is the scientific, intellectual and academic death blow to Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, a theory which has been largely discredited by scientific advances in the fields of physics, chemistry and genetics, among others. The book is thoroughly researched and solidly scientific.

As Harun Yahya explains, the theory of evolution does not limit itself to the field of biology; rather, it has socio-political, economic, religious, scientific, and ethical repercussions and effects [in] all spheres of life. The author explains that the objective of evolutionism is to destroy the belief in God, the Creator, in accordance with the agenda of materialist atheists. Evolution Deceit is particularly important as it exposes the hidden agenda of the evolutionists. It becomes evident that as a thesis, as a philosophy, but most of all as an ideology, the theory of evolution is intrinsically evil.

Until the publication of Evolution Deceit, the theory of evolution was often challenged on moral, ethical, and religious grounds based on theological speculation. This contributed to the impression that evolutionism was a "scientific fact" well above "religious myths" which were the object of ridicule.

Harun Yahya's work, however, gives a fatal blow to evolutionism, exposing its falsehood on the basis of science. It becomes evident that evolutionism is nothing more than an atheistic dogma with no scientific basis whatsoever. As a result of Harun Yahya's extensive research, the myth of evolution crumbles to the ground in utter ruin. Using the same unquestionable scientific rigor he used to discredit evolutionism, the author demonstrates that Almighty God, Allah, created everything, which exists.

"THE BOOK IS FILLED WITH AMAZING FACTS AND LOGICAL EXPLANATIONS AND ATTRACTIVE PICTURES, WRITTEN IN A LANGUAGE THAT IS NOT CONFUSING BUT COMFORTING AND SATIATING"

Another striking book by Harun Yahya on the proofs of God's existence and the quandaries facing the theory of evolution.

I had heard about Harun Yahya for quite some time, but it was only a few months ago I came to realize the greatness and painstaking scholarship of this marvelous writer, when the Imam of the Islamic Center, Sheikh Hamid Abu Malek Slimi, gave me a copy of his book "The Evolution Deceit" as a gift. The Imam whetted my curiosity saying "when you start reading this book, you wouldn't put it away until you had finished reading it in its entirety". It transpired that the Imam is an ardent reader of Harun's works and said that Harun's books would make the Muslim youth growing up in the West, proud to be Muslims.

After I finished reading the book, I reminisced the days of my youth with much sadness, as I had spent many years wondering if in fact God existed. I had searched for an answer in other religions as well, especially Christianity, Hinduism and Buddhism, but this journey brought me no enlightenment, until one day during my math class at the University of Kyoto, Japan, the Theory of Chances was explained and it was as if an electric bulb lit up in my brains...

I would rather let the anxious reader imbibe the nectar of this book, which explains far more eloquently than I could, in scientific and logical terms to the enquiring mind, that, without an iota of doubt, God Almighty exists. Today, no one has to go through the agonizing times I went through, trying to get a logical, scientific answer to my troubling quest.

The book is filled with amazing facts and logical explanations and attractive pictures, written in a language that is not confusing but comforting and satiating. What's more, several other master pieces have also taken wings through the pens of Yahya, enriching the modern knowledgebase of Muslims and filling young minds with a treasure trove of information on Science, Islam and many other subjects.

"HARUN YAHYA'S BOOKS MAKE MANKIND REFLECT ON THE WORDS OF THE GOD"

In the Qur'an, it teaches the believers to call to Islam with wisdom and fair preaching, to call others to worship The Living god and not to ascribe partners in worship with Him. Harun's books clearly does this.

He uses The Qur'an and Science to reach the people's intellect, to make them ponder and reflect on the verses of The Qur'an. I have come across only a few books of this magnitude, which reach the heart as well as the intellect. Not just by words only, but giving a visual effect.

Books by Harun Yahya encourage people to consider the miracles of creation, from the smallest matter on earth to the perfect systems in our bodies.

Many of us read but cannot envision or imagine what we read. But when you have pictures along with the words, it reaches the heart as well as the mind. The God tells mankind in innumerous verses, to look at the sun, the moon, the earth, animals and even ourselves, for there are signs in all of these things for those who reflect and ponder. So, Harun is clearly doing that which The God commands.

In my opinion, Harun's books make mankind reflect on the words of The God. Reflect on His Greatness and Omnipotence. That which science tries to explain away, Harun uses to show that One with complete Knowledge and Wisdom creates all that exists. The All Knowing, The All Wise, The All Powerful, All Seeing, All Hearing Lord and Creator.

May The God continually bless and enrich Harun Yahya in his work. May The God grant him the best in this world, in his grave, and in the hereafter. He is truly one who calls to the worship of The God.

"THIS BOOK IS ONE OF THE BEST DESCRIPTION OF MUSLIM UNDERSTANDING OF DEATH, RESURRECTION AND HELL"

The Polish edition of Death Resurrection Hell gives a clear insight into these issues.

Poland is one the biggest catholic country in the heart of Central and Eastern Europe. It has also one of the oldest Muslim minority within its border. But the 600 - years old tradition of coexistence of Muslims and Non-Muslims still does not bring the mutual understanding of each others. People do not know much about Islamic values and standards and they are afraid, due to stereotypes, of Muslim values. Therefore we, Polish Muslims, have established in 1990 an association which main goal is to bring better understanding of each ones' values and ideas and also to bring peace between the followers of different religions and culture. In our opinion knowledge is the best protection of the peace. Harun Yahya's effort on this protection is one of the most recognized in our time.

I am writing you on behalf of Polish Muslim Circle. For last 5 years we had been organizing open lectures on different Islamic topics. What we found is that the most interesting issue for the people here is the question of death, resurrection and hell.

We started to look for the best Muslim analyses on these topics. And this is how we found on internet Harun Yahya's book on Death Resurrection and Hell. After analyzing different authors and titles we decided to translated the book of Harun Yahya as the best choice.

In our opinion this book is one of the best description of Muslim understanding of death, resurrection and hell. The inner strength of the book and clearness of the text was recognized by several Polish intellectuals who decided to translate other Harun Yahya's books on Islamic topics.

We hope that one day the Author could visit Poland and meet the people who are living and working here. We wish him the best in this life and hereafter, and we ask Allah to protect him from all kinds of fitna.

"I USE THESE BOOKS IN INVITING AMERICANS IN UNIVERSITIES AND HIGH SCHOOLS TO ISLAM"

I am frequently invited to speak about Islam in schools, churches, in Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex, I am usually faced with questions about views of Islam on evolution, creation, women, morality, marriage, and some other subjects. I do my best in answering these questions but those who ask wanted something in writing to explain the subjects in more details.

The Truth of the Life of This World explains with concrete examples that the real abode of man is the eternal life of the hereafter, and that the life of this world is but only temporary.

I kept searching the Internet for good books and finally found the books of Harun Yahya. The books are directed to the exact points of interest of the new generations. This analysis is logic and is supported with ample scientific evidences. Since then, I am giving his books free to the students who asked the most intelligent questions.

"THE WRITER IN THESE BOOKS ADHERES TO A PRINCIPLE OF THE HOLY QUR'AN, WHICH IS OBLIGATORY FOR ALL MUSLIMS ON THE WORLD"

Report on the Religious-Scientific Value of the Following Books of HARUN YAHYA:

- Perished Nations

- Evolution Deceit

- The Basic Concepts in the Qur'an

- For Men of Understanding

- Never Plead Ignorance

As the names suggest, these books bear a high intellectual value written with a responsibility felt towards the society arising from the disbelief, anti-rational understanding of Religion, and the general moral degeneration existing in the actual society, everywhere.

Also, in these books, in my point of view, there is nothing contrary to the general Islamic understanding, otherwise, the writer in these books adheres to a principle of the Holy Qur'an, which is obligatory for all Muslims on the World.

Finally, I want to declare here that I have just published, in Portugal, the Portuguese version of the book of Harun Yahya entitled "Perished Nations".

"PERISHED NATIONS IS A HAUNTINGLY BRILLIANT ELUCIDATION OF THE HISTORICAL LESSONS AVAILABLE TO TODAY'S SOCIETIES"

Perished Nations is a hautingly brilliant elucidation of the historical lessons available to today's societies. This work documents the evidence of the recurring fate of ungodly societies, whose moral and religious degradation, led to their complete destruction. This well researched piece of work by "Harun Yahya" is brought to life in yet another thrilling "audiomentary" by Halaqah Media. The talented pen of Mr. Yahya and the production genius of Halaqah Media have taken Perished Nations into new dimensions.
