"I have found what I was looking for…. "

"I have found in Turkey what I have been looking for in the world for more than forty years. Bediuzzaman Said Nursi belongs not only to the great Turkish nation, but to the entire Muslim World. I had many questions to ask him, and within the one hour of my interview with this eminent scholar all my difficulties regarding the Muslim world were solved. Now I will return to my own country with tidings of great joy.
Many great and virtuous scholars have lived in the Muslim world, and for their great efforts on behalf of Islam some of them received honor, fame, possessions or wealth. However, today, even an oil lamp cannot be found in the house of Bediuzzaman."
