Nevertheless, with his fine taste, sensitivity, depth of thought, and imaginative power, Ustad may be said to have had a really extraordinary literary talent. For this reason, his style changes according to subject. For example, when discussing scholarly and philosophical matters and when convincing the reason with logical, mathematical proofs, he uses very succinct phrases. But when affecting the heart and raising the spirit, his manner of expression attains such clarity it is indescribable. For example, when depicting the skies, suns, stars, and moonlight, and especially the springtime, and Almighty God's power and sublimity manifested in those worlds, he style acquires such subtlety that every simile and metaphor takes the form of a picture framed in gentle colours, every world becomes a wonder of wonders.
It is due to this wisdom that when studying the Risale-i Nur, its students, whatever university faculty there are in, are completely satisfied both in their senses, and minds, and spirits, and consciences, and imaginations. How could they not be satisfied? For the Risale-i Nur Collection is a bunch of blooms gathered from the universal garden of the Noble Qur'an.
So it reflects the light, air, luminosity, and scents of that blessed, divine garden.
Flowing waters tell this need of the spirit,
Mankind has perpetual need of the Qur'an.
Ali Ulvi Kurucu
