What patriotism would permit the extinguishing of their light, the destruction of their solace?

Alas! Compassion for the nation, Self-sacrifice for the nation, where are they?

Hope in Divine Mercy must not be lost. For Almighty Allah will not cause to perish through temporary set-backs the Magnificent Army and Mighty Community of the People of this Land, whom He has employed for a thousand years in the service of the Qur,an, appointing them as its standard-bearer. He will once again kindle that Light and cause them to continue their duty.

He (the Turkish Armed Forces) will not strike with his Sword at his own foot, he will strike at his foe’s. He will make it servant to the Quran. He will rejoice the World of Islam that sheds tears.
