Exactly...he has a turkish television show where he discusses islam and dances around with half naked women.
He interprets some islamic rules on his own way...
Someone who thinks he is a true islamic scholar is out of his mind
I think you should choose suitable words when you criticise any scholar on the board.
I've never watched, read, listened to Harun Yahya.
But I assert this aspect of Islam that we should not speak ill of scholars whether they are good or bad.
I dislike several scholars but I never disrespect them.
Btw, you are free to say what you wish despite this advice of mine.
everybody is accountable for his own deeds...Normally. I would totally agree with you. A scholar would be someone who studies Islam in great detail with the purpose of enlightening it to others who need it.This guy however, has no other purpose than fattening his own wallet. He has been charged and sentenced to jail several times. the last time for having a criminal organisation.This guy has been threatening and blackmailing people to participate in his shows. most, if not all of his "kittens" have undergone plastic surgery. He is not interested in enlightening Islam. He has his own agenda.
Greetings and peace be with you Mustafa16;
If that is the case, then humans, monkeys and apes have clay or dirt as their common ancestor. Adam was made of clay and dirt from Earth.
I think the theory of evolution is sadly lacking.
In the spirit of searching for our Creator.

yes that is right, but still...he has an examplary function. you cannot say "follow my words, but do not follow my deeds". How would you feel if you got a speeding ticket for only 3 km/h too fast written out by a cop who speeds off afterwards wearing no safety belts? not a nice feeling right?everybody is accountable for his own deeds...

Followers will also be held responsible in this case, as to why they didn't use their reasoning power. It's not so simple as you think.No.
With the right intention and use of this knowledge, yes you are propbably right. If you have the intention as an examplary scholar to guide people to the truth and to enlighten them...and by doing that you accidentally give the wrong information...then, yes...this person probably still has a higher rank in jannah than most of us despite this accidental wrong information...because this was not his intention to misguide people.
But in this case...on purpose giving out mixed signals. shouting stuff which are not clear why he said that (is it really the truth? or does he have some hidden purpose behind his words?
Do you know how big the sin is of misguiding people on purpose?
an indication...Allah can fogive you every sin if you seek forgiveness from it....but He will NOT forgive the sins which include doing wrong to others...in these cases you have to ask forgiveness to the people who you wronged. if they forgive you..then, and only then, Allah will forgive you too.
otherwise, this would be injustice to the others.
yes of course. that is true...but still. there is always this misleading on purpose thing. guiding people in such a way he can benefit from them. the intention is wrong.Followers will also be held responsible in this case, as to why they didn't use their reasoning power. It's not so simple as you think.
shaytan mislead us and we are misled. In this case, will we be held responsible for following shaytan...? If not, then you are right that followers of wrong scholars will not be held responsible otherwise you are not rightyes of course. that is true...but still. there is always this misleading on purpose thing. guiding people in such a way he can benefit from them. the intention is wrong.Of course there are people who see through that, and do not fall for it...but then, there are also people who do beleive him.now you can say, they are responsible who they are following...but not everyone can clearly see that his intentions are not completely correct. and these people can not always be held responsible for the full 100% for being misled.besides, do you think he earns much credits for having such wrong intentions? I doubt that...but Allah knows best of course.
No. that is not the same.shaytan mislead us and we are misled. In this case, will we be held responsible for following shaytan...? If not, then you are right that followers of wrong scholars will not be held responsible otherwise you are not right
even those people who didn't get the msg of Islam and remained in darkness without knowing who is their creator will be accountable for not using their reasoning power to recognise their Lord let alone the followers of such scholarsNo. that is not the same.In the case of the shaytaan, you know he cannot be trusted so following him is wrong and therefore you will be held responsible for that.In the case of this scholar...you do not explicitely know he is wrong. There are still numerous people out there who are easiliy pursuaded or manipulated. they do not always manage to see that something is wrong. like said, they are looking for answers to their questions, and this guy gives them the "answers" but not neccessarily the correct answer. They just trust him because he knows so much. in short, these followers are on the right path...with right intentions...but they stumble upon the wrong person. that is a different case.

So, followers will not be held responsible... Right..?yes that is true of course...but still...its kinda like you are saying that everyone who ever got ripped off, swindled or conned, has to blame himself for it because he did not use his proper reasoning at that moment. like imposters, frauds, scammers and lyers cannot be blamed anything, because we were stupid enough to believe in them. It is about trusting these people. it is about believing in them that they tell you things to enlighten you, and not to earn your naive trust and benefit from you later on.
wrong...So, followers will not be held responsible... Right..?
Remember) the day when We will call every people with their imam. (surah bani israeel #71)wrong...It is not so black and white as you think. there are many graytones in between.there are parts or situations where the followers should have known better so they are responsible for it...but there are also parts where the follower has no blame so then they are not responsible.but the scholar who deliberately provides information just for his own benefit, is always responsible...and partially responsible for the actions the follower takes which flow directly from that.But if the scholar provides information which was not accurate, but he did not do that on purpose...then he is not responsible of course.being a scholar is a big responsibility...it can lead you to jannah if your intensions are good...but it can also lead you to jahannam really quickly.
Didn't the Islamic scholar Mohamed Ghlian suggest that humanity arose from a single ancestor of some kind? Others have said that there were creatures on Earth before humans, which could of course be other forms of life (single-celled organisms, bacteria, etc.)
Throughout history, there has been support for the concept of the Darwinian "survival/struggle of the fittest" among many Muslim writers.
This kind of opinion of a socalled Muslim scholar is reprehensible.
Quran vividly says:
“Verily, the likeness of ‘Eesa (Jesus) before Allaah is the likeness of Adam. He created him from dust, then (He) said to him: ‘Be!’ — and he was”
[Aal ‘Imraan 3:59]
