Episode 4 of Kubra unfolds with Gokhan standing before a crowd, his voice resonating with urgency as he urges them to place their trust in him, declaring himself a messenger of Allah. He implores them to shed their doubts and embrace faith in the Almighty, painting the recent power outage as a divine warning, a call to forsake earthly possessions and the pursuit of material wealth in favor of inner contentment. With sincerity, Gokhan exhorts, "Never turn a blind eye to the needs of the less fortunate, and always nurture empathy and kindness in your hearts." His words strike a chord, inspiring individuals to donate their belongings—be it money, furniture, food, or any manner of provisions. Gokhan and his followers, in turn, distribute these gifts to the impoverished and those in need.
Meanwhile, corrupt politicians, sensing an opportunity, approach Gokhan with lucrative offers to join the political arena or at least consent to a meeting with their leader. Gokhan, steadfast in his convictions, rejects their overtures, clarifying that he harbors no desire for wealth or fame and will remain unyielding in his refusal to enter politics.
As Gokhan's message resonates and gains traction, the city administration finds itself under fire for its inability to identify and apprehend those responsible for sabotaging the power grid and causing widespread blackouts. The media relentlessly hounds them, seeking commentary on both their failures and the ascending popularity of Semavi, alias Gokhan, whom they label as Charlton—a false prophet thirsting for publicity and infamy.
Feeling the pinch of Gokhan's growing influence, the city administration decides to neutralize the threat. Law enforcement officers assigned to the case turn to Serhat, Gokhan's complex foe-turned-friend, known for his penchant for getting into trouble and struggling to extricate himself. They task him with infiltrating Gokhan's circle and gathering incriminating evidence against him.
Elsewhere, Tugce, a diligent journalist, seeks out Merve, proposing an interview featuring both of them and Gokhan. Initially hesitant, Merve relents after Tugce argues that such a platform could amplify Gokhan's message and broaden his reach. Merve takes it upon herself to pitch the idea to Gokhan, emphasizing its potential to disseminate the word of Allah to a wider audience. Gokhan, seeing merit in her argument, agrees to the interview.
Trouble stirs as the police officers descend upon the court, their presence looming ominously. They threaten Gokhan and his companions, insisting that their act of distributing donations without a permit constitutes a crime and demanding the immediate return of the aid. Seizing the moment, Serhat slips stealthily into the office, orchestrating a clandestine operation to clone Gokhan's phone. This subterfuge allows the officers to eavesdrop on Gokhan's conversations.
The situation takes a harrowing turn when, in a moment of chaos, one of the officer's firearms discharges accidentally, claiming the life of Burak, a young and devoted follower. Serhat, unperturbed by the tragedy, nonchalantly returns the cloned phone to the police.
Burak's untimely demise shatters Gokhan, who is consumed by guilt and self-blame. Feeling isolated and desolate, he turns to Allah in a heartfelt plea, yearning for a sense of His presence. As the episode draws to a close, Gokhan's desperation deepens, and he implores Allah to reveal Himself in some tangible way.
To his astonishment, Gokhan receives a text message purportedly from the Almighty, urging him to direct his gaze towards a nearby apartment building. As Gokhan complies, the structure collapses into a heap of rubble before his eyes. Furthermore, Gokhan hears a voice, possibly divine, whispering that he cannot see Allah directly.
