Quote

Without conscience, without compassion, without responsibility, what law could protect woman from man, child from cruel parent, woman from woman, the young from the old, the worker from the employer?

Yasin Aktay · Laws, their interpretations, applications and effects

A person or a group is not wronged because he is not given more than equality.

Yasin Aktay · In Syria no one has the right to ask for more than equality

A non-Islamic Turkishness, as aimed at, could have had nothing to do with Turkishness.

Yasin Aktay · We are on the horizon of a common future, brotherhood and social peace

Islam condemns people's boasting of superiority over one another on account of characteristics they were born with, that is, to which they contributed nothing.

Yasin Aktay · Muslims have their own solutions to racism; they see racism not as a right but as a deviation

We have broken away from some traditions, but we have not yet been able to create new traditions and values suited to them.

Yasin Aktay · Do we know what we are debating in the Istanbul Convention?

A perceived sense of power can very easily lead a person into heedlessness and error.

Yasin Aktay · The Sheikh of Love Melayê Cizîrî Symposium in Cizre and Barzani's participation

If the reward of democratic politics is prison, why should people choose democratic ways?

Yasin Aktay · Never having enough of punishing Ghannouchi!

Legitimacy is related not to the use of force but to being accepted.

Yasin Aktay · Will Israel be tried in Istanbul?

Social engineering aims at one thing, but the projects actually carried out produce other and unwanted results.

Yasin Aktay · History repeats itself for the United States, which draws no lessons

No one is blamed for another's sin or condemned to pay a penalty for it.

Yasin Aktay · The veil that falls between truth and the eye is lifted by the sacrifice

If memory is operated not as a moral warning but as a claim of right, it can easily turn into a source of violence.

Yasin Aktay · The Pharaoh's watch: the dialectical or cautionary recurrence of the massacre of children

The West is not the only different world, the only different civilization or form of society that Muslims have encountered.

Yasin Aktay · Have we now taken the knowledge and art of the West?
