The full text of the message, which was read by Celal Ödemiş, a coordinator for the foundation, is as follows:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. All the praises and thanks be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds! May His blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammed and upon all his Family and Companions.
” [They are] those who have been evicted from their homes without right - only because they say, “Our Lord is Allah.” [Surah Al-Hac – 40]
” …So those who emigrated or were evicted from their homes or were harmed in My cause or fought or were killed - I will indeed remove from them their misdeeds, and I will surely admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow as reward from Allah, and Allah has with Him the best reward.” [Ali Imran - 195]
“In the Qur'an, Allah (Azzah and Celle) has sent down more than 30 ayahs concerning migration, and He has mentioned the rewards He has given to believers for their emigration.
The Hijri New Year, which is of great importance to the Islamic world, coincides with Saturday, July 30.
This historic journey, which we will leave 1443 years behind, has been a turning point, a milestone for all humankind in general and Muslims in particular.
This historical and monotheistic journey of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) from Mecca to Medina, which was sent as a mercy to the Worlds, has changed the course of human history.
Such a journey has been accepted as the starting point of history for the Islamic world and this blessed journey, in which the foundations of Islamic Civilization were laid, has brought liberation and happiness to all humanity.
Hegira is not an escape but a stage in Islam's cause.
Hegira is a sign that Islam is a too great religion that cannot be confiscated to a geographical border.
Hegira means to travel from a place where it is not possible to live an Islamic life to a place where it is possible to live an Islamic life.
Hegira is the dedication of good messengers to humanity who act with the motto of doing unrequited good for the interest of humanity, at the risk of any price.
Hegira is an invitation to return to the nature of humanity.
Cruelty and injustice were extreme before Islam. Islam, entrenched in hearts, has ended this period of oppression by offering a sense of governance that acts with justice.
Hegira [Emigration] is a brotherhood. A Muslim is the brother of another Muslim. It is such a brotherhood that people who have never known each other before have strengthened with the Islamic brotherhood.
The only recipe for interest and power that will hold us together is the Islamic brotherhood. (ILKHA)
