Teachers can explain in detail what destiny is. If you don't know, you can get detailed information from YouTube videos. I would like to give you some information about how destiny is used, not what it is.
 
It is clear that earthquakes and similar disasters are destiny, but saying "earthquake is destiny" does not relieve any mortal from the responsibilities they should have.
 
By the will of Allah (SWT), the measures we need to take, the issues we need to know, and the things we need to do are separate issues. Destiny is not a door to escape from one's responsibilities. After the servant has done everything he can, fully and completely, he can speak his destiny.
 
Maybe we experienced an earthquake disaster of unprecedented magnitude in our history.
 
May Allah have mercy on our dead, grant a speedy recovery to our wounded, and give patience to the people of the region.
 
May He be pleased with all our state officials and volunteers who are trying to save another life without sleeping, without stopping, without saying cold.
 
Let no stones touch their feet, may Allah (SWT) reward them with the best rewards. Again, we are writing an epic against a great disaster as a nation.
 
There are so many aspects of this disaster that need to be addressed, so many lessons that we need to learn, it is innumerable. One of the most important issues that we need to turn into culture as human beings is to learn lessons from the troubles and calamities that befall us. It is also necessary to work on learning lessons, thinking about it, making a plan, taking the necessary precautions and implementing them.
 
While our country has a large earthquake zone, there are always severe earthquakes, experts are giving information about the regions to be earthquakes, and the earthquake regulations are here, if we are experiencing such a disaster, it means that we have a lot to think about. It means that we still do not take the necessary measures.
 
If there is an earthquake in a region and some buildings can survive, there are serious problems there. If all the buildings are destroyed, but some of them are still standing, it means that the others are definitely not earthquake resistant.
 
Yes, there really is a lot to talk about, but it must be our greatest duty to talk and discuss some very important and incomprehensible matters much more. If there is an earthquake fact in a region, it is necessary to divide the subject into two as before and after the earthquake and work accordingly.
 
Prepare as much as you want beforehand, you should also prepare for the problems that will occur after an earthquake. Everyone expresses that there is a general problem in terms of speed of transportation to the earthquake area, organization of aid activities, coordination, transportation and similar needs. I never get into the subject of contractors, engineers, architects and businessmen who disregard human life in order to earn more.
 
I don't even want to remember the unbelievable practices such as the zoning amnesty that contribute to the earthquake hazard. I don't even want to think about those who are still pursuing political profits while our nation has become one. I would like to completely ignore the unconscious citizens who are still trying to throw stones at the other side and try to make a speech while everyone is obsessed with their teeth.
 
I entrust the unscrupulous, who try to turn the earthquake into an opportunity, to Allah. One cannot really find anything to say to these segments. You are not ashamed of the servant, I would say at least fear Allah, but a man who fears Allah does not behave like this anyway.
 
Now what are we going to do from now on? Will necessary precautions be taken? Will we go to the path of dividing our nation, which is once again one body, at the first opportunity, or will we strive to continue like this? There is no one who does not see the effort, running and self-sacrifice of the Z generation, which we talk about at every opportunity, will we continue to insult them unjustly?
 
Doesn't this beloved nation of ours, this self-sacrificing, sincere, magnanimous nation deserve much more? And he deserves such a thing that it is impossible to express it in words. Let's hope this is the last. Is it possible? Never say never...
