Communist China's Policy of Oppression in East Turkestan

That said, how would the IU unify the Muslim
nations and dispel the notion of tribalism and
ethnicity?
MR. OKTAR: The love, understanding,
moderation, humility and rationality
set out in the Qur'an will represent the
essence of the Turkish-Islamic Union. Allah
has revealed in the Qur'an that superiority
lies in piety alone. It is not material advantages,
the color of a person's skin, his belief or ancestry that
makes one person superior to another. Only spiritual values
can make one superior to another. In other words, someone
who is humble, who has a greater fear of Allah, who loves
Allah more and is more keen to help others, more altruistic,
more patient and gentler therefore applies the moral values
of the Qur'an in a finer manner. Such manners are more valuable
both in other people's eyes and in the Sight of Allah,
inshaAllah. But that superiority does not mean oppressing or
exploiting others. In speaking of the founding of a
Turkish-Islamic Union under the leadership of the
Turkish nation, when I say that the Turkish nation
will assume the role of leader, I am not referring
to any leadership based on force or compulsion.
On the contrary, accepting such a leadership
means putting up with troubles and difficulty. It
means serving all the societies belonging to the
union, and all mankind itself. We are all the children
of the Prophet Adam (peace be upon him). The
