## About The Author

The author, who writes under the pen-name HARUN YAHYA, was born in Ankara in 1956. Having completed his primary and secondary education in Ankara, he then studied arts at Istanbul's Mimar Sinan University and philosophy at Istanbul University. Since the 1980s, the author has published many books on political, faith-related and scientific issues. Harun Yahya is well-known as an author who has written very important works disclosing the imposture of evolutionists, the invalidity of their claims and the dark liaisons between Darwinism and bloody ideologies such as fascism and communism.

His pen-name is made up of the names "Harun" (Aaron) and "Yahya" (John), in memory of the two esteemed prophets who fought against lack of faith. the Prophet's seal on the cover of the author's books has a symbolic meaning linked to the their contents. This seal represents the Qur'an, the last Book and the last word of God, and our Prophet, the last of all the prophets. Under the guidance of the Qur'an and Sunnah, the author makes it his main goal to disprove each one of the fundamental tenets of godless ideologies and to have the "last word", so as to completely silence the objections raised against religion. the seal of the Prophet, who attained ultimate wisdom and moral perfection, is used as a sign of his intention of saying this last word.

All these works by the author centre around one goal: to convey the message of the Qur'an to people, thus encouraging them to think about basic faith-related issues, such as the existence of God, His unity and the hereafter, and to display the decrepit foundations and perverted works of godless systems.

Harun Yahya enjoys a wide readership in many countries, from India to America, England to Indonesia, Poland to Bosnia, and Spain to Brazil. Some of his books are available in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Urdu, Arabic, Albanian, Russian, Serbo-Croat (Bosnian), Polish, Malay, Uygur Turkish, and Indonesian, and they have been enjoyed by readers all over the world.

Greatly appreciated all around the world, these works have been instrumental in many people putting their faith in God and in many others gaining a deeper insight into their faith. the wisdom, and the sincere and easy-to-understand style employed give these books a distinct touch which directly strikes any one who reads or examines them. Immune to objections, these works are characterised by their features of rapid effectiveness, definite results and irrefutability. It is unlikely that those who read these books and give a serious thought to them can any longer sincerely advocate the materialistic philosophy, atheism and any other perverted ideology or philosophy. Even if they continue to advocate, this will be only a sentimental insistence since these books have refuted these ideologies from their very basis. All contemporary movements of denial are ideologically defeated today, thanks to the collection of books written by Harun Yahya.

There is no doubt that these features result from the wisdom and lucidity of the Qur'an. the author certainly does not feel proud of himself; he merely intends to serve as a means in one's search for God's right path. Furthermore, no material gain is sought in the publication of these works.

Considering these facts, those who encourage people to read these books, which open the "eyes" of the heart and guide them in becoming more devoted servants of God, render an invaluable service.

Meanwhile, it would just be a waste of time and energy to propagate other books which create confusion in peoples' minds, lead man into ideological chaos, and which, clearly have no strong and precise effects in removing the doubts in peoples' hearts, as also verified from previous experience. It is apparent that it is impossible for books devised to emphasize the author's literary power rather than the noble goal of saving people from loss of faith, to have such a great effect. Those who doubt this can readily see that the sole aim of Harun Yahya's books is to overcome disbelief and to disseminate the moral values of the Qur'an. the success, impact and sincerity this service has attained are manifest in the reader's conviction.

One point needs to be kept in mind: The main reason for the continuing cruelty and conflict, and all the ordeals the majority of people undergo is the ideological prevalence of disbelief. These things can only come to an end with the ideological defeat of disbelief and by ensuring that everybody knows about the wonders of creation and Qur'anic morality, so that people can live by it. Considering the state of the world today, which forces people into the downward spiral of violence, corruption and conflict, it is clear that this service has to be provided more speedily and effectively. Otherwise, it may be too late.

It is no exaggeration to say that the collection of books by Harun Yahya have assumed this leading role. by the Will of God, these books will be the means through which people in the 21st century will attain the peace and bliss, justice and happiness promised in the Qur'an.

# Introduction

Each of HARUN YAHYA's more than 170 publications on matters of science, faith and politics can change the way a person looks at the world. His scientific books demonstrating the proofs of creation to be seen in the universe, his works about Islamic moral teaching composed with reference to the verses of the Qur'an, and his political books that expose the hidden side of historical events have addressed millions of people of every nation, language and religion. These works have stimulated a wide response throughout the world.

Whether in America, Britain, Russia, Kazakhstan, South Africa, Brazil, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, France, Nigeria, Canada or Lebanon, you can find books and magazine and newspaper articles by Harun Yahya in various languages in bookstores in most countries in the world. Documentaries and narrations based on Harun Yahya's works, which are broadcast on many radio and television stations, have also aroused great interest throughout the world.

The works of this author have been translated into French, German, Italian, Russian, Albanian, Spanish, Portuguese, Polish, Serbo-Croat, Indonesian, Malay, Urdu, Estonian, Arabic, Swahili and Bengali, and further translations into many other languages are progressing quickly. the purpose of this is to distribute all these books throughout the world in order to inform all people of the existence of God, the beauty of the moral teachings of the Qur'an, the existence of the hereafter and the lie of Darwinism.

Harun Yahya, who has written his works in order to spread the message of the Qur'an to the whole world and to encourage people to think about matters of faith, such as the existence of God and His Oneness, aims to make them easily accessible to everyone. With this purpose in mind, Internet sites have been opened that render a great service to thousands of people every day. On these sites, the more than 170 books written by Harun Yahya, complete with their full texts and illustrations, are available free of charge to Internet users, in addition to documentaries and audio narrations. This is a service rarely found on the Internet. Other book promotion sites introduce the works by giving a short summary or by listing the main headings. Except under exceptional circumstances, the whole text is provided at no cost. However, the Harun Yahya Internet site intends that everyone who wants to access all his works should be able to do so easily, and at absolutely no charge.

The purpose of this book is to inform people of the effect that Harun Yahya's works, from his books to the documentary films based on them, have had throughout the world. the book, which includes the Internet pages of those Islamic organizations, scientific institutions and various universities where you can find Harun Yahya's works, and reviews written by various scholars or the directors of various leading organizations and institutions, together with an account of the reactions from the fairs and conferences that have presented the author's works covers only a limited amount of material. Indeed, the scale of these reactions has been far greater than might have been expected.

### "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...

God commands justice and doing good and giving to relatives. and He forbids indecency and doing wrong and tyranny. He warns you so that hopefully you will pay heed. (Qur'an, 16:90)

It is He who made the sea subservient to you so that you can eat fresh flesh from it and bring out from it ornaments to wear. and you see the ships cleaving through it so that you can seek His bounty, and so that hopefully you will show thanks. (Qur'an, 16:14)

### "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"

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"

Ihad 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.

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.

### "Mr. Yahya Is Quoting Quranic Statements and Drawing the Attention of the Reader To the Facts Embedded in These Statements To Prove the Truthfulness of God's Message, Islam"

I have read Mr.Harun Yahya's books: "Evolution Deceit", "Perished Nations", "The Truth of the Life of this World", "Ever Thought about the Truth", and "The Basic Concepts in the Qur'an". I found these books in compliance with Islam's teaching. Mr. Yahya is quoting Quranic statements and drawing the attention of the reader to the facts embedded in these statements to prove the truthfulness of God's message, Islam.

I expect this writer to be recognized and honored by the Turkish government for his fine work. You ought to be proud of this writer. Canadian Muslims are proud.

### "This Book Is One of the Best Description of Muslim Understanding of Death, Resurrection and Hell"

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.

### "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 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.

### "Harun Yahya's Valuable Works Left a Permanent Predominance On the Minds of Those Studying the Origins of Life"

Iwould like to take this opportunity to express my own humble, unqualified views on how I personally feel about the excellent works written by brother Adnan Oktar (Harun Yahya).

The books I have studied, and the articles which I have read over the internet are a valuable source of treasure for those seeking the truth. the rich information which he has produced regarding Evolution, convincingly and without a doubt clarifies that the theory of Darwin is a totally refutable and unacceptable.

The research which the author has compiled on the Miracles of the Holy Quran and the wonders of the universe, are mesmerizing and impressive for those who are pursuing answers to their questions, enabling them proximity to Allah (SWT).

May Allah (SWT) grant you success in this world and the hereafter for your services in the propagation of this great religion of Islam. I pray to Allah (SWT) and sincerely hope that all the writings of Harun Yahya become available in English in the near future, for I truly believe that his methodology of literature is captivating to the reader, and useful for Muslims and non-Muslims alike.

From my own encounters with those living in Western societies, his valuable works have transformed peoples way of thinking, leaving a permanent predominance on the minds of those studying the origins of life.

In conclusion I pray to Allah (SWT) that you attain success in your endeavours in disseminating the truth.

"They Desire to put out the light of Allah with their Mouths, but Allah will perfect his light, though the unbelievers may be averse" (Holy Qur'an – Chap 61:8)

### "The Way Harun Yahya Has Approach the Topic of Evolutionism, Makes It a Valuable Source for Learning"

Harun Yahya has done a great contribution to the advancement of Islam through his many writings.

The book "Evolution Deceit" (EL ENGANO DEL EVOLUCIONISMO) is unique, at least in the Spanish language.

The way our brother Harun Yahya has approach the topic of evolutionism, makes it a valuable resource for learning.

The use of graphics and science to debate and topple old-atheistic-misconceptions regarding the creation of humanity is of great importance to us as a community. We, the Latino community, are looking towards Islam and the Islamic world-view to find solutions to our problems, whether social, moral, political, scientific, economical or religious.

This book, because of its contents and its structure, can have a great appeal to a vast number of the Latino population, from the scholar to the common person.

We hope and pray that Allah gives our brother Harun Yahya a long and fruitful life so that he can keep producing such unique pieces of literature; and that we are able to keep up with the translations of every single one of them.

We hope to distribute the works of this prolific writer in the American continent for the advancement of Islam in this part of the world, which is desperate and hungry for Islamic knowledge.

### "Harun Yahya's Books Are Refreshing To Read"

SUBJECT: Overview of the following books by Harun Yahya:

Perished Nations

The Evolution Deceit

The Truth of the Life of this World

For Men of Understanding

When the first book by Harun Yahya was published in the UK, it was read avidly by a wide readership, who excitedly anticipated the release of the subsequent books published by Taha Publishers.

Their popularity is surely due to the fact that within the framework of Islam they address many subjects: archaeology, biology, chemistry, natural history, paleontology and sociology are but a few. They are refreshing to read, in that the author has cleverly managed to escape the narrow confines of modern religious expression. in other words, the books reflect the fact that Islam does in fact talk about all subjects, both "worldly" and "spiritual".

In the past, the Muslim World flourished on account of this understanding, and made great leaps in the fields of scientific discovery, medicine, astronomy, engineering, etc. They were spurred on by religious conviction and the commandment to seek knowledge.

Harun Yahya has succeeded in putting the love of the Creator and an appreciation of the created world back into the sciences, as the starting point for any field of endeavor. as such, his books help to inject new energy into the pursuit of knowledge, to carry forward all branches of learning into the 21st century.

This is not only a source of pride, but equally a source of encouragement to the younger generation.

I can honestly say that I have found in these books nothing inflammatory or opposed to the common good. However, to claim that they are perfect would be a foolish assertion. the only book in the history of the world that contains no errors is the Qur'an itself. as for the books by Harun Yahya, what is clearly manifest is the author's intention, which is simply to highlight the wisdom and advice of the Qur'an and draw attention to certain undisputed facts, such as the existence of Allah, the transitory nature of creation, life and death, the secrets of the past and mechanisms of nature.

### "Harun Yahya's Books Are a Great Contribution Towards the Well-Being of Not Only the Muslims but the World in General"

We are one of the largest mail-order and in-house bookstores selling books on Islam and the Muslim World both retail and wholesale in the United States. We carry books by the Turkish writer Harun Yahya. These books are in great demand by Muslims as well as non-Muslims here.

The author has very graphically illustrated the passing nature of this world and drawn the attention of his readers towards living a moral life. His books focus on scientific facts and the essence of Qur'anic values. His books are a great contribution towards the well-being of not only the Muslims but the world in general.

The Turkish people are very fortunate to have a great author like him.

Sincerely,

### "I Am Pleased To Recommend This Book To All Intellectuals"

I have read Harun Yahya's book the Evolution Deceit: The Scientific Collapse of Darwinism and its Ideological Background published by Okur Publications 1999. the author has very ably shown the scientific flaws in the evolutionary theory. the book is clear and thought provoking. It is written in a passionate yet academic style.

This book is excellent not only in presenting the Islamic viewpoint on evolution, but it could also be very useful for the people of all faiths who have a common creationist perspective with Muslims.

I am deeply impressed by the content as well as the production of this work. I am pleased to recommend this book to all intellectuals.

The Muslims of Australia have benefited greatly from the books of Adnan Oktar (Harun Yahya). His books represent some of the most well researched and academically sound investigations and refutations of Darwinian theory available, and have proven to be most useful in our work in propagating Islam to non-Muslims.

On behalf of all the Muslims who have benefited from his writings we ask that you consider his impressive contribution to Islam and the refutation of false ideologies and man made theories.

### "When I Saw Books and Videos by Harun Yahya, I Decided That in Future I Will Work Just On Materials by Harun Yahya"

My short impression related books and videos by Harun Yahya is: for several years I worked with most prominent scientific organizations which are working in affirmation concept of creation and was working in publishing their books and videos in Yugoslavia. But, when I saw books and videos by Harun Yahya, I decided that in future I will work just on materials by Harun Yahya. These materials are something most fascinating what I saw and I think that it is not possible explain to some person how fascinating they are. the person must see these books and videos, and then he can feel what I feel.

"Harun Yahya Has Become a Household Name in the Uk"

With the publication of just four books in the English language, Harun Yahya has become a household name in the U.K. the exceptional quality of research, content and style are astounding, and a pleasure to read. Their success lies surely in that they appeal to people at all levels – those with knowledge and those without, the academic and layperson, the young and the old.

It is to be hoped that these unique books will gain universal appeal and make a significant contribution to international relations and understanding in all spheres of life.

### "This Is Probably the Most Important Book Published by Any Islamic Publisher for Many Years"

I have now had the opportunity to look through"The Evolution Deceit". Without having had the time to read the book from cover to cover, I can see that this is probably the most important book published by any Islamic Publisher for many years. I am not sure how far our fellow Muslims understand the threat which evolutionary theory poses to religious faith, but this theory has done more than anything else to destroy belief in God among Westerners. I think that many educated Muslims simply take the theory for granted without fully considering its implications. What the author of this marvellous book has done is to bring together, in a very readable way, all the latest evidence (often derived from evolutionary scientists) which undermines the whole theory.

I should be grateful for a review copy. Ishall in any case have to purchase two or three more copies for friends. I have for example a friend living in Cairo, an English Muslim of my age who nominally accepted Islam many years ago, but who told me recently in a letter that he cannot really "believe" because he accepts totally the theory of evolution and cannot reconcile this with the faith of Islam. It has seemed almost like a small miracle that "The Evolution Deceit" has turned up at this very moment.

Icongratulate you warmly on having published the book. in fact I feel that Iowe you a debt of thanks for doing so.

### "Harun Yahya Books Should Be Read by All"

Ifind that Harun Yahya writes very intelligently. an idea is brought forward, researched, explained, then the masterstroke of combining it all with the Qur'an.

The book Perished Nations carries forward a torch full of light;we are shown our past so that we do not make the same mistakes in the future.

Everybody seeks knowledge, irrespective of his religious background. Due to this, Harun Yahya books should be read by all.

"Harun Yahya has provided the world with the window into the reality of existence, life and our purpose for being in this universe."

After reading many of the books produced by Harun Yahya, I have been encouraging my students and the scholars of Islam around the world to take a closer look at these remarkable works. There is no doubt in my mind that these are the very tools needed to bring the people at large around to the correct way of thinking. If anyone could read the material presented in such a clear and concise manner and then reflect upon it seriously, they would have to conclude that the evidences provided leave no room for dispute of any kind.

I use many of the evidences provided by Harun Yahya's books within my lectures, seminars and classes around the world. Everywhere I travel throughout the world, the people who have discovered and enjoyed his books have expressed the very same sentiments. by far we can say that this work is for all humans on this planet and a very much needed source of information in these most trying times. There should be a concerted force to bring about a world wide distribution of these books in all languages, particularly English, Spanish, French, Dutch, German, Italian, Russian, Arabic, Korean and Japanese.

Harun Yahya has provided the world with the window into the reality of existence, life and our purpose for being in this universe. I highly applaud his efforts and the efforts of those who are working so hard to publish and distribute his works. May Allah grant guidance to all those who read these books and may Allah grant mercy to all those who assist in sharing it with other, ameen.

### "For a Young Person, Reading the Works of Harun Yahya Opens Seemingly Closed Doors"

The works of Harun Yahya are indeed a great contribution to the reshaping of thinking and understanding of the world around us.

Our belief in Allah and His Oneness becomes that much more powerful, relevant and invigorating when it is the product of a vigorous mental exercise in which logic and reasoning are applied. This kind of mental effort is in compliance with exhortations found in the Holy Quraan. Man is required to think, ponder and deliberate the universe and his own existence within the universe.

Islam is distinguished by the fact that we must not only be at peace with others but also with ourselves. This is the necessary effect of a Muslim's total submission to the Will of Allah.

For a young person reading the works of Harun Yahya opens seemingly closed doors showing that there is hope and many wonders ahead by understanding and appreciating the wonders of Allah's creation within and around us.

### "Many of the Works of Harun Yahya Bring Out the Hidden Concepts of Science in Qur'an"

Harun Yahya has done a monumental task of conducting analysis of numerous Qur'anic concepts while challenging western philosophies that appear to confront them. in many instances comes out bold to challenge western writers through his logical arguments on the basis of Qur'anic concepts. the selected examples of his facing such challenges are the concepts of evolution, relativity, and timelessness.

In relativity and timelessness he builds numerous examples, based on Qur'anic concepts, in explaining the concepts of relativity through examples of the differentiated operation periods of the entire system of material existence. He then goes on to explain that the concept of time depends on the perception of a given instance or an event. He thus goes on to accept the challange of the Qur'an to all its readers to constantly think and attempt to understand the various signs of Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala).

Many of the works of Harun Yahya bring out the hidden concepts of science in Qur'an through critically review signs of Allah through direct references to various creations in Nature. This is what is exactly needed to convince the young mind in particular about the depth in which the Qur'an is brought to them.

### "Harun Yahya Is a Different Author Who Can Exert Lasting Impact On the Minds of Those Who Are in Search of Truth"

Harun Yahya is exceptionally a great advocate of ALLAH's signs in the Universe. His scholarly works in this area have made great impact in the world of science and reason. His main focus is to show that the concept of materialism is not only repugnant to human logic but also have no scientific grounds. Haroon Yahya, thoroughly examines the universe and what exists therein, from logical and scientific point of view and presents his arguments based on current scientific knowledge and irrefutably proves that the Universe has a beginning and therefore is created by ALLAH.

He examines all elements of the subject and tests all possibilities with logic and science and draws highly convincing conclusions. All his works I have read are the treasure of information and an example of his powerful but simple style without any prejudices.

Being a humble student of the Qur'an, I was enlightened by his writings a great deal. I have the honour of reading some of his books like "Evolution Deceit;The Creation of the Universe;Allah is Known Through Reason;For Men of Understanding."

I will advise every conscientious Muslim to read his books to find that Harun Yahya is a different author who can exert lasting impact on the minds of those who are in search of truth.

### "Harun Yahya's Books Clearly Portray the True Meaning of Islam and How the One 'God' Is Our Only Creator"

Since quite some time Islam has been facing a tremendous negative impulse from all over the world. Throughout this time there had been no strong voice against all of this.. until brother Harun Yahya came. Islam needed a powerful subliminal voice to speak for itself amids all this nonsense. Harun Yahya's works have progressed over time, his word reaches out to the rest of the world be it for Muslims or people in general. His books and vide clearly portray the true meaning of Islam and how the one "God" is our only creator. His work is balanced and speaks with a lot of proof. Harun Yahya puts a lot of research into his materials and justifies it with the logical presence of "God" and his miracles in our existence.

We wish him all the best of luck and pray for him to write and produce more successful projects so that the entire world will know that real Islam is.

Congratulations for the publications written under the pen of Harun Yahya. They have had a great impact for its informative scientific content written in a clear way for everybody to understand.

In my opinion, the very same scenery of the Galapagos Islands in Ecuador that captivated thousands by its nature and the unique species, will Inshallah help him out to have the same recoil effect for disclaiming the Charles Darwin theory of the Evolution.

This will be by the Grace of ALLAH, a step forward to establish the authenticity of the Qur'an and Islam.

### "Reading the Books of Harun Yahya Has Always Been a Source of Immense Pleasure"

Reading the books of Harun Yahya has always been a source of immense pleasure thanks to the invaluable insights he artfully and cleverly gave us into authentic Islamic values, rational thinking and genuine teachings.

Thousands of books have been written about Islam, but few could claim to have made the impact of his books on the ideologies and thinking of thousands of people.

One of the greatest merits of Harun Yahya is that he builds up his arguments carefully and logically, with [taking] the average reader always into consideration. He provides background information when needed, and avoids repetition and pompous expressions to keep the reader in focus. He never looses sight of the main idea and always steers away from emotional traps.

It is the ability to generate interest and the keenness to respect the reader's intelligence that help make him one of the most outstanding writers about genuine Islam and relevant Islamic themes.

Please find in this missive my deep gratitude for all the highly significant books and articles.

### Harun Yahya Has Added a New Chapter To the Islamic Literature

Many people had been observing an apple falling down from a tree to the ground, however it was only Newton who had the capacity to think, discover and define the laws of gravity as result of this observation. in Quraan it has been said time and again to "think" on various aspects of His creations. However it is only few who have thought about Allah's creations and could find His "miracles" and the proof of His existence. There had been some efforts by scholars particularly the Muslim scholars in this direction but Harun Yahya has given it a new direction. I can confidently say that he has added a new chapter to the Islamic literature.

Religion has always been considered in opposition to science. Even today there are many schools of thought who consider religion and science not in congruence with each other. Unfortunately some Muslim "scholars" have also fallen victim of this propaganda. However Islam is the only religion, which has considered science as part and parcel of its belief. Religion has been expressed, propagated and advocated by Muslim scholars in different ways. However there had been little effort in explaining religion in light of the creations of Allah, be it living or non-living. in Quraan it has been said time and again to "think" and "ponder" on various aspects of the universe.

When I read and study various writings of Harun Yahya the basis appears to be one word of the Holy Quraan i.e. "Yathafakkaroon" which has been repeated more than a dozen times and means -- "think". His writings are so appealing thought provoking that one is compelled to start thinking about his creator and the creator of the universe. It also makes you think about the reason of creation of human beings and the universe. It clarifies that scientific discoveries are revealing more and more "proofs" of the Truth of Islam. There is nothing in science which is contradictory to Islam. in fact every new scientific understanding is revealing the secrets of the "creations" of Allah and thus is a source of strength for our "belief".

The books of Harun Yahya cover a wide variety of subjects. On one hand it makes you ponder on the miracles in human body (like "miracles in Immune system" and "miracles in the eye") while the other he makes you think about the harmony and secrets in Universe (like "creation of the universe" and "miracles in the atom").

He has very effectively challenged all aspects of "Darwinism" and has undoubtedly thrashed his theory of evolution with reasons and facts, also exposing the forgery committed by the "scholars" propagating Darwinism.

He is a writer, who has looked at Islam from a new angle and expressed it very effectively based on scientific evidence and reasons. in medical literature we have "evidence based medicine". Harun Yahya has exactly done the same and produced "evidence based Islam". the evidence has been gathered and produced from "nature" and the everlasting laws, which are operating in nature since Allah created it.

May Allah give him the reward of his efforts on "The Day After". Our duty is, to at least study and strengthening his thoughts by propagating and supporting this new addition to the Muslim literature.

### "Haron Yahya's Works Are Well-Read Through the World and Many People Are Moved and Have 'Surrendered To the Will of God'"

The world is in the midst of crisis. Human beings are facing multitude of crisis because of their rejection of God and His system. the worldwide socio-economic and environment problems, moral degradation and spiritual crisis are some of the manifestations of the rejection. Ever since science detached itself from the Islamic root and follow the agnostic and atheistic system of the West, it created more problems than benefit. Science with the western perspectives strengthened the ancient Greek doctrine of materialism which led to the formulation of various atheistic philosophies. Human beings were misled into following these philosophies such as utilitarianism, hedonism, individualism, fascism and many others which trapped the people into the endless problems and miseries. Is there any glimpse of hope that humanity could be saved from the oblivion? Yes if human being accepts God and His system.

Haron Yahya's works have contributed to this glimpse of hope for the salvation of humanity. Haron's works are well-read through the world and many people are moved and have "surrendered to the will of God". the books on science and the Quran and other related topics written by Haron have demolished the notion that empiricism is the only trustworthy and believable source of knowledge. the Qur'an which ever since its revelation has "mesmerized" multitude of people, such as al-Walid bin Mughairah, the Arabian noble laureate, and Omar Khattab, for its language, eloquence, and yet again at this modern age, the Qur'an has shown its miracles in terms of science. Haron's work in this topic is very much commendable and should be read by those who aspire to know Islam and its teaching.

"Harun Yahya's Books Make up a Rich and Beneficial Information Source for University and High School Students"

Harun Yahya, the well known scientific writer from Turkey, is the scholar who has waged the most effective scientific war against the lie of evolution over the last decade. With scientific facts and sound evidence, the author clearly exposes the lie of evolution, which lacks any scientific proof, and shows the clear signs and might of God the Almighty, the Lord of all the worlds, known and unknown to man.

With their easygoing and fluent style, Harun Yahya's books that have been translated into Russian are easily understandable by both scholars and lay readers. They are therefore very popular among Russian people. These books further constitute a rich and beneficial source of information for university and high school students. It will be a great success for the future if these books are included in the educational curricula of schools and academic institutions.

Another article that appeared in the October, 2000, edition of the Middle Path was "From Caterpillar to Butterfly," which describes the marvelous stages in the metamorphosis from caterpillar to the perfect shape of a butterfly. the article also discusses the wondrous proofs of creation in the lace-like wings of the butterfly and the artistry of their color, shape and symmetry.

"The recent completion of the human gene map within the scope of the Human Genome Project is an important scientific development. However, some results of this project are being distorted in some evolutionist publications. It is claimed that the genes of chimpanzees are 98% similar to human genes, and this is presented as an evidence for the claim that apes are close to humans, and therefore, logical ancestors of humans as claimed by Darwin's theory of evolution. the argument is misleading... the claim of 98% similarity is deceptive. To claim that the genetic make-ups of man and chimpanzee bear 98% similarity to each other the genome of the chimpanzee also has to be mapped just as that of man and the two have to be compared. However no such comparison results are available, because, so far, only the gene of the human has been mapped. No such research for the chimpanzee has been done yet. ...Darwinists are distorting the results of the Human Genome Project. Life did not originate as a result of unconscious coincidences as evolution claims, but as the result of the creation of Allah, the Almighty, the Owner of infinite knowledge and wisdom."

"Therefore, what is needed in the first place is to correct the wrong point of view about the Qur'an and make people understand that the Qur'an is not a book which is addressed only to the Prophet (sws) but to all people who consider themselves Muslims. Any person who utters this statement: "I'm a Muslim, alhamdulillah" must read the Qur'an and try to understand the meaning of the verses. in the Qur'an, the importance of learning verses and reciting them are especially emphasized.

...Some people believe that the Qur'an addresses only Muslims of the 7th century and some others think that only a small part of the verses addresses people other than the Muslims of the 7th century. a person having such an approach gets satisfied with reading the Qur'an and thinks he fulfils his religious duties by doing so. However, this is not only a matter of learning what is inside of the Qur'an, but also putting them into practice, fulfilling the duties ordered in the Qur'an, adapting moral standards explained in the Qur'an;briefly, bringing the Qur'an into one's own everyday life."

"The 77% of nitrogen, 21% oxygen and 1% of carbon dioxide as well as other gasses readily available in the atmosphere represent the ideal figures necessary for the survival of living beings. Oxygen, a gas that is vital for living beings, helps food to be burned and converted into energy in our bodies.

If the oxygen quantity in the atmosphere were greater than 21%, the cells in our body would soon start to suffer great damages. the vegetation and hydrocarbon molecules needed for life would also be destroyed. If this quantity were less, then this would cause difficulties in our respiration, and the food we eat would not be converted into energy. Therefore, the 21% of oxygen in the atmosphere is the most ideal quantity determined for life."

"..One good example is the pitcher plant (Nepenthes bicalcarata) that grows in Eastern India. This plant, that is exactly in the shape of carafe, houses ant colonies in its body. It feeds on insects by seizing the ones that perch on it, captures them and in the end digests them. On the other hand, the guest ants have privilege for this carnivorous plant. the pitcher plant ignores the existence of ants in an incomprehensible manner. Truly the ants and the plant have a deal with each other for their mutual benefit. the ants are under the threat of being eaten by the plant, nevertheless they have gained a home for themselves. On the other hand, the plant leaves remnants of some tissues and insects for the ants and in return, it gains the right to get protected from its enemies by the ants. This example defines the main features of symbiosis between the ants and the plant. the anatomy and physiological structures of the ants and the plant hosting them are so designed as to provide a mutual relationship. However the evolutionists claim that such relationship gradually became widespread in millions of years, assuming an obvious illogical thesis that two living beings lacking intelligence made an agreement and planned such 'mutual benefit' system-somehow."

Life is short; the human soul is eternal.

It is exceedingly important that true believers should be on their guard against trends of thought that oppose Allah and religion. the duty of a Muslim in the face of Darwinism is to destroy that great lie and to proclaim the truth of creation.

# Part 3:Activities Focusing On the Works of Harun Yahya Media Coverage Bookstores Book Fairs Internet Sites

## Media Coverage

The works of Harun Yahya, written to expose the fallacy of the theory of evolution, have attracted great attention in the foreign press, and press organizations have devoted a lot of space to them. Some have printed lectures and books showing how 20th century science has invalidated the theory, and others have devoted space to reviews of these books in order to inform their readers that there is no such process as evolution.

## USA - Science

The influence of Harun Yahya's books on evolution, and especially his internationally renowned the Evolution Deceit, is reflected in the well-known scientific evolutionary magazine Science. in an article in the May 18 edition by Robert Koenig, entitled "Creationism Takes Root Where Europe, Asia Meet," the author gives a lengthy account of Harun Yahya's struggle against the deception of the theory of evolution, the international success of his book the Evolution Deceit and of the defeat of evolutionists in Turkey. the article emphasizes that this broad academic endeavor-"One of the world's strongest anti-evolution movements outside North America"-aims to cause the collapse of the theory of evolution on the scientific front, and that it is making inroads in other Muslim countries. Another topic dealt with in this article is the international success of the Evolution Deceit. It says that some evolutionist scientists in Turkey complain that "books by Harun Yahya such as the Evolution Deceit have become more influential than textbooks in certain parts of Turkey". in the article, the concerns of Turkish evolutionists are expressed in these words "...Many evolutionist scientists fear they are losing ground to creationists in public opinion".

## USA - Ncse Reports

"... Most representative is Harun Yahya's text the Evolution Deceit. the book comes in 2 version - a large, attractive 370-page volume notable for its many full-color illustrations and slick appearance (Yahya 1997) and an abridged 128-page booklet with fewer illustrations, which was widely distributed free of charge to the public (Yahya 1998)...

Observing the awesome and orderly aspects of nature - the heavens and the stability of the earth, lightning and rain, useful plant and fruits, and so on - prompts common sense to conclude that all this must be designed for a purpose (13 Ar-Rad 2, 3;30 Ar-Rum 20-27)..."

## United Kingdom - New Scientist

The April 22, 2001, issue of the world-renowned magazine New Scientist investigated creationist movements throughout the world and offered this interpretation of Harun Yahya and his books:

In this fascinating book, HarunYahya has written a remarkable and extremely effective reminder of "the truth of the life of this world". Throughout, the text is clear and readable and the marshalling and use of Qur'anic ayaat extremely effective. the book is superbly presented, with numerous full-colour photographs, illustrations and diagrams, beautifully designed. This book is one of the very few that is likely to be convincing to skeptical readers steeped in western propaganda, be they Muslim or non-Muslim. That alone is a very considerable achievement.

Harun Yahya has put together a vast range of books which tackle the very subjects that have bothered me, and for that, I am sure many similar students will take great benefit. the style of the books is not that of dry academia, but is readable and straightforward, so that even youngsters can study and benefit from the thoughts contained therein. the message is added to by the many colourful and relevant photographs, which not only enliven the page but are also good thought-provokers in themselves. This is the major function of the HarunYahya books, I feel-to widen our consciousness, give us material to ponder on which we may not have known before, and, thus, help us to understand a little more of the Greatness and Grace of Allah.

## Dr. A Shakoor / UK

Brother Yahya it is very valuable to read your article following the recent events. Your knowledge of Islam is scholarly and allows people to get a true understanding of ALLAH's Deen. Your other work on scientific issues will have a huge impact on those who read and God Willing closer to their Creator. May ALLAH the MOST MERCIFUL and KIND give your more energy and good health to produce more authentic and sound literature for all people to read.

## Naeem Mirza / UK

I would just like to say that this website speaks for a lot of innocent Muslims worldwide. It shows Islam to be a peaceful religion. May Allah bless you for the work put into this site.

## Jim / USA

I have learned a lot about Islam since Sept. 11th. I am pleased to see this website. To do my part as an American citizen I explain to others that these acts of terror and religion should not be connected. All legitimate religions preach peace and brotherhood.

## Ali Shafeeq / Maldives

Instead of concentrating on "Who committed the acts" you have concentrated "Why such things are happening".That is great!

## Ahmed Mubali / USA

Most people think and lives islam in definite times, during the preyars, ramadan, reading Quran...And they do not remember Quran in other circumstances. What i see in you is, you do not live islam only in definite times. but you live islam starting from the time you wake up till you sleep everyday. and that`s the right way.

## Fred Covoner / Switzerland

Your works are notifying everyone about the reality of Islam. People would live best if they live islam. People would think their brothers and sisters before doing something, they would care their brothers and sisters more than they care themselves. You explain these in a brilliant way in your books. Regards.

## Shimon Zang / Israel

I am living in Tel Aviv. We, Jewish people, do fell respect to people who have helped to our brothers in past. as it is written in your site, Ottoman Empire was land of piece for all religions because Islam advises people to be fair, peaceful, helpful, conciliative, as those are the values all religions advise. We are all in the same way believing in the same values. We all are agains atrocity to blameless people. Congratulations for your hearty studies.

## Muhammad Nadeem Jahangir / Pakistan

It is a very interesting and spectacular website. I hope it will play a vital role in clearing any confusion or any doubt from the minds of people of the world against teachings of Islam. in this site HARUN YAHYA's articles have clearly and widely opens the doors of the reality in front of the people. This website it self fighting a "Jihad-bil-Qalam" (intellectual struggle) against terrorism.

## Frank Banales / USA

I am pleased and take great comfort in your effort to explain to those that wish to know the true meaning of Islam. I am self taught and everything I have learned, including my reading and writing, was through the inspiration I received reading the Quran. I continue to learn and be inspired by the Quran but also by books written by Harun Yahya.

## James Phillips / Australia

An excellent site. a real eye opener, and has reinforced my belief that all should be tolerated no matter what religion. as a buddhist I have never lost faith and repsect for my Muslim brothers and sisters but this has reinforced my love for all peoples.

## Dr. Aryeh Finkelberg, Tel Aviv University, Israel

It is greatly encouraging for me as an Israeli to find out that there are Muslim intellectuals who earnestly try to form an objective opinion about the Israeli-Arab conflict and propose a way out from the terrible situation.

## Reid Heller, USA

Thank you for sharing the proposal below. I admire its moderate tone, its respect for Judaism and its interest in Jewish-Muslim co-existence. These are noble aspirations shared by all Jews and particularly Israelis. I sincerely hope that the moderate spirit that inspired the words below finds a home among in the community of nations.

I agree with what you wrote and I am happy that there are thoughtful Muslims who think like you. in the present atmosphere of blind hatred on both sides it is wonderful to hear clever words like yours.

## Simon Feil, Columbia University Hillel, USA

The letter you sent me was very thought provoking and interesting. I would love to discuss it further.

## Sandor Goodhart, Purdue University, USA

# Conclusion

Throughout this book, we have seen the reaction that Harun Yahya's works have received around the world and the ever-growing interest in them. We have seen a few reflections of this great interest in newspapers, magazines, on Internet sites and in letters from readers.

There are several important reasons for the great influence that these works have had on those who have read them. First, because of their intimate and attractive style, they can be simply and easily understood by people from every walk of life and of every age group. the author has taken the wisdom and the striking narrative style of the Qur'an as a model for himself. the second reason must be the variety of his works, that attract the interest of all sections of society with the importance of their themes. for example, Harun Yahya's series of works is not only of importance to those who want to learn about Islam or deepen their knowledge of the Qur'an, but are also a source of reference for those who want to have true Qur'an-based knowledge about topics such as the true face of evolution, biology, astronomy, physics, world and present-day history and international relations.

The basic point about Harun Yahya's works is that they were written with only the will of God in mind. They have been prepared without any commercial interest or expectation of profit and as a result their sincerity has an immediate effect on the hearts of their readers.

For this reason, reading these works and introducing and recommending them to others is a very important service. An

# Back Cover

Each of Harun Yahya's more than 170 publications on matters of science, faith and politics can change the way a person looks at the world. His scientific books demonstrating the proofs of creation to be seen in the universe, his works about Islamic moral teaching composed with reference to the verses of the Qur'an, and his political books that expose the hidden side of historical events have addressed millions of people of every nation, language and religion. These works have stimulated a wide response throughout the world.

Whether in America, Britain, Russia, Kazakhstan, South Africa, Brazil, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, France, Nigeria, Canada or Lebanon, you can find books and magazine and newspaper articles by Harun Yahya in various languages in bookstores in most countries in the world. Documentaries and narrations based on Harun Yahya's works, which are broadcast on many radio and television stations, have also aroused great interest throughout the world.

The works of this author have been translated into French, German, Italian, Russian, Albanian, Spanish, Portuguese, Polish, Serbo-Croat, Indonesian, Malay, Urdu, Estonian, Arabic, Swahili and Bengali, and further translations into many other languages are progressing quickly. the purpose of this is to distribute all these books throughout the world in order to inform all people of the existence of God, the beauty of the moral teachings of the Qur'an, the existence of the hereafter and the lie of Darwinism.

Harun Yahya, who has written his works in order to spread the message of the Qur'an to the whole world and to encourage people to think about matters of faith, such as the existence of God and His Oneness, aims to make them easily accessible to everyone. With this purpose in mind, Internet sites have been opened that render a great service to thousands of people every day. On these sites, the more than 170 books written by Harun Yahya, complete with their full texts and illustrations, are available free of charge to Internet users, in addition to documentaries and audio narrations.

The book, which includes the Internet pages of those Islamic organizations, scientific institutions and various universities where you can find Harun Yahya's works, and reviews written by various scholars or the directors of various leading organizations and institutions, together with an account of the reactions from the fairs and conferences that have presented the author's works covers only a limited amount of material. Indeed, the scale of these reactions has been far greater than might have been expected.

thing that can be done in this direction will be a step towards eliminating the environment of cruelty and chaos in which the world has become immersed and, with God's help, this will eventually happen.

God willing, the works of Harun Yahya will reach an even greater audience in the 21st century, and will be a means whereby people will be able to attain that life of well-being, justice and peace that they have longed for down the years.

They said, "Glory be to You! We have no knowledge except whatYou have taught us. You are the All-Knowing, the All-Wise.(Qur'an, 2: 32)
