“It was to these books that I turned for an answer to the question: What is the meaning of la ilaha illa Allah? Again I was disappointed. The books were about Islam, not about Allah. They covered every subject you could possibly imagine except for the one which really mattered. I put the question to the imam at the university mosque. He made an excuse and left. Then a brother who had overheard my impertinent question to the imam came over and said: “I have a tafsir of la ilaha illa Allah. If you like, we could read it together.” I imagined that it would be ten or twenty pages at the most. It turned out to have over 5,000 pages, in several books. It was the Risale-i Nur by Said Nursi.”

“ههموو كهسێك پهنجهرهیهكی ههیه، چ بۆ سهیركردن چ بۆ خۆپیشاندان، لێیهوه دهڕوانێته كۆمهڵ، ئهو پهنجهرهیهش پێی دهووترێت (پله و پایه) جا ئهگهر ئهو پهنجهرهیه له باڵای نرخ و بههای خۆی بهرزتر بوو ئهوا به (تهكهبور) باڵای نرخ و بههای خۆی درێژ دهكات تاكو لهم پهنجهرهیهوه دهربكهوێت. بهڵام ئهگهر له باڵای هیممهتی ئهو نزمتر بوو ئهوا به (تهوزرع) خۆی نزم دهكاتهوه و دادهنهوێت و لهو ئاستهدا دهبینێت و دهشبینرێت، پێوهرهی مهزنایهتی له مرۆڤی كاملدا تهوازوعه، بهڵام كهسانی بوودهڵه و ناتهواو پێوهری بچوكیان تهكهبوره. ـ”
