About The Author
The author, who writes under the pen-name HARUN YAHYA, was born in Ankara in 1956. Having
completed his primary and secondary education in Ankara, he then studied arts at Istanbul's Mimar
Sinan University and philosophy at Istanbul University. Since the 1980s, the author has published many
books on political, faith-related and scientific issues. Harun Yahya is well-known as an author who has
written very important works disclosing the imposture of evolutionists, the invalidity of their claims and
the dark liaisons between Darwinism and bloody ideologies such as fascism and communism.
His pen-name is made up of the names "Harun" (Aaron) and "Yahya" (John), in memory of the two
esteemed prophets who fought against lack of faith. The Prophet (saas)'s seal on the cover of the books
is symbolic and is linked to the their contents. It represents the Qur'an (the final scripture) and the
Prophet Muhammad (saas), the last of the prophets. Under the guidance of the Qur'an and sunnah, the
author makes it his purpose to disprove each one of the fundamental tenets of godless ideologies and to
have the "last word”, so as to completely silence the objections raised against religion. The seal of the final
Prophet, who attained ultimate wisdom and moral perfection, is used as a sign of his intention of saying
this last word.
All author' s works center around one goal: to convey the Qur' an' s message to people, encourage
them to think about basic faith-related issues (such as the existence of Allah, His unity and the hereafter),
and to expose the feeble foundations and perverted ideologies of godless systems.
Harun Yahya enjoys a wide readership in many countries, from India to America, England to
Indonesia, Poland to Bosnia, and Spain to Brazil. Some of his books are available in English, French,
German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Urdu, Arabic, Albanian, Russian, Serbo-Croat (Bosnian), Polish,
Malay, Uygur Turkish, and Indonesian, and they are enjoyed by readers worldwide.
Greatly appreciated all around the world, these works have been instrumental in many people
recovering their faith in Allah and in many others gaining a deeper insight into their faith. The wisdom,
and the sincere and easy-to-understand style gives these books a distinct touch which directly effects any
one who reads or studies them. Immune to objections, these works are characterized by their features of
rapid effectiveness, definite results and irrefutability. It is unlikely that those who read these books and
give serious thought to them can any longer sincerely advocate the materialistic philosophy, atheism or
any other perverted ideology or philosophy. Even if they continue to do so, it will be only a sentimental
insistence since these books refuted such ideologies from their very foundations. All contemporary
movements of denial are now ideologically defeated, thanks to the collection of books written by Harun
Yahya.
There is no doubt that these features result from the wisdom and lucidity of the Qur'an. The author
modestly intends to serve as a means in humanity's search for Allah's right path. No material gain is
sought in the publication of these works.
Considering these facts, those who encourage people to read these books, which open the "eyes" of
the heart and guide them to become more devoted servants of Allah, render an invaluable service.
Meanwhile, it would just be a waste of time and energy to propagate other books which create
confusion in peoples' minds, lead man into ideological chaos, and which, clearly have no strong and
precise effects in removing the doubts in peoples' hearts, as also verified from previous experience. It is
apparent that it is impossible for books devised to emphasize the author's literary power rather than the
noble goal of saving people from loss of faith, to have such a great effect. Those who doubt this can
readily see that the sole aim of Harun Yahya's books is to overcome disbelief and to disseminate the
moral values of the Qur'an. The success and impact of this service are manifest in readers' conviction.
One point should be kept in mind: The main reason for the continuing cruelty, conflict, and all the
ordeals the majority of people undergo is the ideological prevalence of disbelief. This state can only be
ended with the ideological defeat of disbelief and by conveying the wonders of creation and Qur'anic
morality so that people can live by it. Considering the state of the world today, which leads people into
