They receive the kindness arising from that patriotism, although they do not deserve it.

We say to those who exhibit excessive patriotism and negative nationalism: if you truly love this nation and feel pity for it, be patriotic in such a way that your pity is directed towards  the majority of its people. For to serve the temporary heedless social life of the minority, who are in no need of pity, in a way that is the reverse of pity for the majority, is not  patriotism.
Menfî milliyette fazla hamiyet-perverlik gösterenlere deriz ki: Eğer şu milleti ciddi severseniz, onlara şefkat ederseniz öyle bir hamiyet taşıyınız ki onların ekserisine şefkat sayılsın. Yoksa ekserisine merhametsizcesine bir tarzda, şefkate muhtaç olmayan bir kısm-ı kalilin muvakkat gafletkârane hayat-ı içtimaiyelerine hizmet ise hamiyet değildir.

Patriotic works performed out of negative racialism may be temporarily beneficial for two people out of eight. They receive the kindness  arising  from  that  patriotism, although  they  do  not  deserve  it. But  the remaining six are either elderly, or sick, or afflicted with tribulations, or are children, or weak, or pious people turned earnestly toward the hereafter; these people want a light, a solace, compassion, in the face of the Intermediate Realm and the hereafter, with the life of which they are concerned rather than worldly life; they are in need of helping hands that are blessed and patriotic. What patriotism could permit their light to  be extinguished, their solace to be destroyed? Alas! Where is that pity for the nation, that self-sacrifice?
Çünkü menfî unsuriyet fikriyle yapılacak hamiyetkârlığın, milletin sekizden ikisine muvakkat faydası dokunabilir. Lâyık olmadıkları o hamiyetin şefkatine mazhar olurlar. O sekizden altısı, ya ihtiyardır ya hastadır ya musibetzededir ya çocuktur ya çok zayıftır ya pek ciddi olarak âhireti düşünür müttakidirler ki bunlar hayat-ı dünyeviyeden ziyade müteveccih oldukları hayat-ı berzahiyeye ve uhreviyeye karşı bir nur, bir teselli, bir şefkat isterler ve hamiyetkâr mübarek ellere muhtaçtırlar. Bunların ışıklarını söndürmeye ve tesellilerini kırmaya hangi hamiyet müsaade eder? Heyhat! Nerede millete şefkat, nerede millet yolunda fedakârlık?

We must never lose hope in divine mercy. For Almighty God will not cause to perish through temporary set-backs the magnificent army and mighty community of the people of this land, which He employed for a thousand years in the service of the Qur’an, appointing them its standard-bearer. He will once again kindle that light and cause them to continue their duty, God willing!
'''Rahmet-i İlahiyeden ümit kesilmez. Çünkü Cenab-ı Hak, bin seneden beri Kur’an’ın hizmetinde istihdam ettiği ve ona bayraktar tayin ettiği bu vatandaşların muhteşem ordusunu ve muazzam cemaatini, muvakkat arızalarla inşâallah perişan etmez. Yine o nuru ışıklandırır ve vazifesini idame ettirir…'''
