How regretable it is that a work that has assisted in maintaining public order and preserving morality and has proved enormously beneficial for the judiciary and police is today shown to be harmful and contrary to the law in a way totally opposed to the truth. In the face of such an obvious contradiction, we refer it to fair-minded people of conscience, and about our Master say in reply to the experts' committee accusation of his exploiting religion for political ends that they are exploiting the judiciary for purposes of irreligion.
Another imputed crime in their report is that the author speaks in the name of the Risale-i Nur's collective personality, and that he is attempting to secure personal influence by employing such expressions as "it was imparted to my heart" and "an important matter that was imparted to my heart on the Night of Power."
One can only suppose in the face of such baseless and meaningless accusations that those persons who call themselves experts are far from deserving such an epithet; one is astonished at their ignorance and lack of discernment. If only the experts of the committe had studied this side of the question carefully and with respect, they would perhaps have saved themselves to a degree from casting themselves into the pits of ignorance. All the parts and letters of the Risale-i Nur and the entirety of our Master's life form the clearest evidence that his whole endeavour and all his work and service are for truth and right alone and he speaks only for the sake of the truth. Those so-called experts displayed their bigotry in irreligion by reading only a tiny part of the Risale-i Nur Collection and wrote these calumnies in order to be able to indict it come what may. However, while explaining the Risale-i Nur's lessons, our esteemed Master says that the foremost of them are impotence, poverty, compassion, and reflection.
In truth, enduring the most vicious torments and persisting in his striving and work, our esteemed Master has smashed with his universal service and the Risale-i Nur, which is derived from the All-Wise Qur'an's truths of belief, the disbelieving way of the materialists and naturalists, and has withstood their merciless assaults. With the assistance of his hundreds of thousands of eager students, who are indebted to him for the instruction in belief they have received, he has disseminated everywhere hundreds of thousands of copies of the one hundred and thirty parts of the Risale-i Nur. He has demonstrated with decisive proofs and arguments the truths of belief, which act as a barrier before the assaults in this country of irreligion and especially of communism, and with his proofs of belief in God and divine unity — the diamond swords of the Qur'an — he has routed the fallacious ways of unbelief and misguidance.
