speciality through our egos not to be (the) same, but (the) Tajalli, (the) manifestation of every time, to be changed. That is (a) hobby. For what? To be happy more and more Paradise people! But it can’t be through this life, no! (It) can’t be. That (is) the reason that Shaitan (is) throwing through (the desire into) your heart to be seen in different positions among people and people they say: “Who is that beautiful one? “ (They are) looking (to) her dressing and (then she is) coming: “Oh, (the) same lady (is) coming, but she is so fashionable lady... fashionable lady, (the) most fashionable lady through this Gala-Night!” Eh. Therefore Shaitan (is) making its most effort to make people to look on themselves to be seen in another position, to be said: “Oh this lady (is) like a Paradise lady- from where (she is) coming?” (Then she is) coming... that is the old one, but she dressed so heavy dressings that people (are) thinking: “That (is the) same lady?”... From this putting Shaitan its hook on men and women. And you may look that now whole nations, men and women, they are running after to be seen (as) a new personality, nothing else. Therefore they are making fashion-makers to make such a strange things, to take other peoples lookings on them. And that is making economy to come (down), to sink on (the) last point,

never getting out. And that is the opening (of) the door of ‘israf’, wasting. They are wasting everything, only to be seen in another appearance. I don’t think that anyone (is) saying on that point now. (They) can’t say. We are saying on the worst demands of people. Yesterday someone, they are asking to me: “O Sheikh, I am going to make a consulting with you for some important thing.” I am saying: “Yes, you may ask.” He was saying: “O my Sheikh! We have a car; it is in a good condition, very good condition, its motor, its tyres is excellent. But my wife (is) saying: ‘O my Darling, what do you think, that we can change our car, because it is just (the) new year, coming with (a) new fashion. We must change our old car in a new model car. What do you think, o my darling? You know, o my Darling, (it is) my hobby that I like to have a Mercedes car, because our car is Ford car and (the) Ford car- Ford (is) not like Mercedes. And I am looking, looking through magazines that new models of Mercedes cars (are) first class!” “O my Darling, what you are saying! (Even) if (there is a) new fashion of Mercedes cars- do you think that they are flying? Or they are also travelling on same Autobahns?” “O my Darling, don’t say this! Only we must put our new fashion Mercedes car, you and me to stand up in front of our new car, in front of our house, so that people may say: ‘Oh’- it is enough for me: to be seen in front of new fashion Mercedes car!” “O my Darling, I must look... I must look for that...” “O my Darling, I don’t like to say: ‘I must look’. You must follow what I am saying, what (is) making me happy! O my Darling, ohh, I am going to cry...!” Hundreds and thousands (of) traps (is) putting for mankind, Shaitan, to occupy them from their real missions through this life! They are not going to think on (the) most important position that the Day of Resurrection Allah Almighty (is) calling them: “O My servant, come and show your real face! Show your real habits, show (your) real mission, what you did through your life!” To make them to forget it, (Shaitan is) engaging people with fashions.

Therefore you must learn and you must know and you must follow. (The) Holy Quran (is) coming for to be known, coming to be learnt and (for) knowing and practising. That gives to you an honour and glory along of your eternal life; (it) gives to you honour and over honour glorifying up to endless, up to eternity! O people, don’t waste yourselves, your efforts, for nothing, but try to use your efforts to reach eternity! Eternity, that you should find... through every moment or second you should find something that never happened before and you should take such a pleasure through your eternal life! Think on it! Don’t waste your times with shaitanic things! And through that way Shaitan (is) just occupying people and catching them and doing what he is asking to do on people... Learn! Now so many people (are) speaking, speaking, speaking, speaking... we are not asking too much speaking- from (something) small you must understand an ocean! May Allah forgive us!

FAST! HUNGER WILL BREAK THE PRIDE OF YOUR EGO!
You are the Sultan, the Sultan of Sultans. You are the Great, no-one can be great, only You, our Lord. Every greatness is nothing in front of your Divine Greatness. We are nothing. In this holy month Allah Almighty grants us from his Endless Blessings and we need his Blessings. Although we are nothing, we claim to be something by giving ourselves empty titles so that we can get a value. But even if you try to give this value to yourself, it is nothing. It is useless. As long as a person wants to give himself a value, he will be cheap, cheaper, cheapest... Because as long as someone is claiming to be something, he will be looking at his own power, his knowledge, his position, his business, his rank, his family, his race, his richness... With all this he will want to give himself a value, but in reality he is becoming cheaper and cheaper and he will fall down into the dustbin and become rubbish himself. If you try to be something, I will come and look at you when you are dying, and after death I will look to see how you are. You will probably be smelling badly! Is that your value? You, who are claiming to be such an important one! If you really think you are so valuable, let me take you to the market of dead bodies after you have died, and then let us see how valuable you are! Yes, that is the value of all of those who are claiming to be something now. Some people put stars on their shoulders or badges. Even children are proud when they wear lions, or wolves or foxen on their pocket. People are not using their mind and that is why they are becoming like small children. They are happy and

even proud with such useless things. Pride only belongs to the Lord of Heavens. He has the right to be proud, no-one else. No-one has the right to be proud. This century is the century of pride. Everyone are proud-ones. When they are proud they will be jealous, envious, merciless and injust people. All those characteristics come from pride. Of all creatures, the first proud-one was Satan. He claimed to be proud, and all the angels kicked him down. He was kicked from the highest position to the lowest. We are fasting. We must fast, because we have been ordered to. Since the first man until today, it is a heavenly order: "Oh, mankind, you must fast!". Fasting makes you humble. When you are full, you will be proud and it is not for you, to be proud. That is why it is the most important worshipping, to fast. The Seal of Prophets mentioned to his nation and to all nations: "For everything there is an entrance, and the entrance of worshipping is fasting. Without fasting, you cannot be a worshipper. Why? Because your ego will not let you. It will first reject, object and refuse to be a servant. Your ego will tell Allah, "Come down and I will go up!" That is how dirty the characteristics of the ego is. It is the worst creature that has ever been created, your ego. But it is so powerful. It even asks Allah Almighty to come down! It will never accept to be a servant. Try it yourself. Everyone has an ego. Do you think that your ego is an obedient servant? Isn't it always rejecting and refusing to fast and pray and to do this or that? Isn't it always asking to do wrong things? It always wants to be against the rules of heavens. It wants to be free. What is that foolishness of the people of the 20th century? They want to be free-ones! That is the claim of their egos. They do not want to be under any control or command. They want to be absolutely free. That means they are saying, "You are there Allah, I am here!" May they be forgiven... Nothing can be more effective to put the ego down, than hunger. When Allah Almighty created the ego, He asked, "Who are you and who am I?" The ego answered, "You are you and I am I." It did not say, "You are my Lord and I am your servant!" Allah then ordered the ego to be put 1000 years into hell-fire. After that the ego was asked the same question again and it gave the same answer. It was then ordered to be put into the cold hell for another 1000 years. Again it gave the same answer. It was then ordered to be put into the valley of hunger for 1000 years, hungry. When it was brought out and asked, "Who am I and who are you?", the ego answered, "You are my Lord, my powerful Lord and I am your weak servant." It was trembling. Nothing except hunger can make the ego declare servanthood. That is why since the first man, we have been ordered to fast. It is in the Old Testament, New Testament and all other Heavenly Books. The fastings in

those books are very difficult. The easiest fasting has been given to the nation of Sayyidina Muhammad, may peace be upon him. Even for his nation, fasting was difficult in the beginning. During the first few years, the companions of the prophet were only allowed to have a break of the fast between maghrib and isha. After isha they had to fast again. So they has a fast of 22 hours. Then Allah Almighty made it easier for the nation. We can eat and drink and enjoy all night until dawn. Even if it is the easiest fasting, many people are not observing it. But it is the best treatment for our physical being and also the best treatment for our egos. It is also the best treatment for our souls, to enable them to go up to the heavens. While you are fasting, your soul is asking to reach higher levels in the heavens. Try to keep this rule of fasting as much as possible. If you are new and you haven't been fasting before, try to fast, make the intention. That is the most important factor of obediency and worshipping. Allah Almighty will not accept any worship without the intention. You must intend to do a worshipping for the pleasure of Allah Almighty, intending to follow his Holy Command. If not, it is not a worshipping. Use your intention! "I am praying for the pleasure of my Lord! I am fasting to follow his Holy Command and to make him happy and pleased with me." Every action that a believer wants to do, should be done in the rememberance of Allah, to make Him pleased with us. If you want to do anything, and you know it is going to make Him pleased, then do it! If not, then don't do it, beware! Some punishment can come to you sooner or later. Don't be cheated, if the Lord Almighty Allah gives you your punishment later, it doesn't mean that He is not punishing. No! Don't be cheated if He is delaying his punishment. It only means that He is waiting to see if you are repenting, or not. He wants all his servants to ask for pardon. When you intend, you will find the capacity to fast, to complete your fast. If you are a beginner and you do not reach that point, even though you have intended, and on the first day of fasting you realise at noon time that you cannot continue, then break your fast. Try the second day. You can then improve and add another hour, and so on you add one more every day. By the middle of Ramadan you will be able to complete your day. That is a way, step by step to reach our target. Don't say that you can't, and don't be too strict. Even our children are not too keen on worshipping. Teach them step by step. And with new Muslims be tolerant, oh Muslims! Don't say anyone is impossible. It is only a question of training. Italy - 01.03.1994

(Mawlana Shaykh sits.) We are asking the Lord of Creation, thabbitna `ala al-Haqq, keep our feet fixed on the right path! And we saying to our attenders also, as-salaamu `alaykum, those who are giving some time for their Lord's pleasure and trying to make their Lord, Allah Almighty (Mawlana Shaykh stands.) happy and pleased with them and to be rejoicing in them. (Mawlana Shaykh sits.) May Allah forgive us for the honor of His most honored one. O our Attenders who may be from common people, or `ulamas, or from learned people, or from those who are asking to not show that they are hearing such things, because Shaytan is threatening them, "You are `ulamas, and you are listening to such an unauthorized person?" Yes, I am not authorized by official centers and I am not an official. I am only a weak servant who has been appointed by that one who is controlling everything on Earth and they are trying to keep Believers from falling into bad conditions or dangerous situations. We have been controlled by that one, and the most important thing is that Shaytan is now going to be upset, very upset! Ptuu, and upset you, Shaytan! He is angry with me and I am angry with him also. (Mawlana Shaykh laughs.) My supporter is the one who appointed such a weak servant, perhaps the weakest servant on Earth! And I am not asking heavenly support through its last level, only here, and from him who is responsible for Believers, to not fall in Shaytan's traps. This is an association. What they are causing me to speak, I may say. May Allah forgive me and forgive you. Ask His forgiveness, O people! Everyone in Creation is asking forgiveness from their Creator. Without forgiveness, no blessings are coming. If blessings are not coming, in a second or less this planet will disappear, finish, wa huwa `ala kulli shay'in qadeer, "He is able to do everything He wants." O `ulamas, is this against `aqeedatu 'l-Islam, the belief of Muslims? Say! Do you think He is not able to take away this world and others like this world, thousands, billions, trillions, quadrillions, pentillions, before 'qaaf' reaches 'noon'? Are you believing this? You must believe in the Creator's Endless Power Oceans! You must believe in your Creator's Will Power, in His Divine Attributes. If He says, kun fayakoon, "Be! And it is," and if He says, "Finish," everything will disappear through His Power Oceans. You must say this so people so they may know their Lord, their Creator's power! Something la yudhkar, not to be mentioned, yet in a very short time everything may disappear. Wa huwa `alaa kulli shayin qadeer.

O doctors, O `ulamas, make it so wide that people may understand. Say! Where are they going to disappear to? That is beyond all your imaginations! He, Almighty may say, "Quickly! Everything in existence, inside a dharra, atom!" And all this will take its position in an atom. (Mawlana Shaykh laughs). Yes, `ala kulli shayin qadeer. Don't say, "It can't be." There is no argument on this. (Mawlana Shaykh stands.) Allah (swt), wa huwa `alaa kulli shayin qadeer. (Mawlana Shaykh sits.) He may take everything in existence and order it into an atom. Are you saying this, O Salafi `ulamas, O doctors? Is it true what this weak one is saying? Don't think these are a weak one's words. If it is just on the level of your understanding, it is the last level! Allahu akbar, wa lillahi 'l-hamd! If a person is inquiring about a king's territory and power and we say one is a king of a small island, and the other is a King whose territory runs from east to west then you may understand the value of one against the other. You may say US, (is a donkey, but we have to say) its territory from north to south, is on a new continent, "oh, so powerful." And, "who is that one?" "That is the king of Malta." One spot. If you say, "that is the king of Siberia, his territory is from east to west," then you are understanding his power, so you try to give your best salute and obedience to that one. Therefore, `ulamas, Salafi or non-Salafi, doctors or others, as much as people give glory and greatness to the Lord of Heavens, they take more care, fearing that they can't do as they like, no! They are fearful (of their Lord.) O Salafi `ulamas, do you know what the Seal of Prophets (s) said? He said, Raasu 'l-hikmata makhaafatu'Llah. "The head of wisdom is to fear Allah (swt)." (related by ibn Abi Shayba, al-Hakim at- Tirmidhi, Abu Na`eem in his Hilyah, al-Bayhaqi in Shu`ab al-Iman and others, authentic [sahih]). It is only four words, but it gives people such a huge maidaan, level, that they may understand something from makhaafatullah, (in order) to make them fear and tremble in front of the Lord's greatness and glory! Therefore, it is important, O `ulamas, to speak each time, everyday, about the greatness of our Lord, Almighty Allah. (Mawlana Shaykh stands and sits.) And according to your fear of your Lord, you are given such an ability; the capacity to give your most high respect and glory to your Lord, (because) you are trembling in front of His greatness, fearing, and keeping the right way! Therefore, just four words, raasu 'l-hikmati makhaafatullah, covers the whole world and teaches them. If one is not in fear of his Lord, it means, that person is ignorant and does not have good manners. And if a person
http://www.sufismus-online.de/FearAllah (3 von 6)04.07.2013 23:16:50
2988 Maulana Sheikh Nazim: FearAllah
does not have good manners there is no value for him in the Divine Presence. On the Day of Resurrection those who were giving ta`zheem, their highest glory and endless respect to their Lord, will be accepted and granted such a glory that others will not be given. Therefore, heavenly ranks granted to people will be according to their fear of their Lord! Fearless peoples' level is under the level of animals; not on the level of animals, but under it. And when we are saying, 'under the level of animals,' you can't find an end for these levels. Marhaban, ayyuha 'l-mulook, ayyuha 'l-`ulamas! Who is a real malik? The one who may keep his ego on the level of ta`zheem, glorification of Allah Almighty. Those who are able to lower their levels as much as possible in front of their Lord's greatness, have been granted such greatness from the Lord of Heavens. Therefore, that hadith shareef, raasu 'l-hikmati makhaafatullah: the one who is honored in this life is in fear of his Lord, and then everyone will fear that one! As an example, once upon a time, one of those who glorified their Lord Almighty, was riding through a jungle. It was so dark there and he was tired. He was keeping his horse there and sleeping. After a while a person came past and said, "O my Lord, who is this, here? 'Oh, stranger, have you never been here? This is the most dangerous place for wild animals and serpents? Quickly, go from here!'" He kept sleeping, and anyone looking at him was trembling! Whichever serpent, tiger or lion came to him was trembling, because of his 'halo,' as our Christian brothers say. They put this, so that it may be known that that is a heavenly one. He is not like ordinary people. Men, if looking, would see this. All wild animals also, when they approached, would see that circle, that halo around him and run away! Therefore, everyone fears those who keep makhaafatullah, the fear of Allah Almighty. Even if they were thrown in fire on the Day of Resurrection, fire would run away from their power. Makhafatullah! Allah Allah. Now, you, O `ulamas, are you reminding people of such things? Reminding is the most important pillar for believing in your Lord Almighty. Therefore, all prophets have been ordered: an andhiri 'n-naas, "Warn Mankind," to make them take care to give their adab in the Divine Presence of their Creator, that is important, wa thiyaabaka fatahhir, "And keep your garments free of stain." You must clean yourself from every wrong belief and you must believe in the greatness of your Lord, Almighty Allah, that He is going to accept you or you are going to be rubbish, thrown away.

O People! How are you asking to reach those levels? You can't reach those levels with ordinary feet, no! O `ulamas? What is the Lord of Heavens saying? He is saying, qadama sidqin, "The lofty rank of Truth." Yes? I am not knowing the entire Holy Qur'an by heart, but something is coming to me, and I am speaking on it. Are you understanding? If you don't have qadama sidqin, true steps, you can't move up even a millimeter. You can't stand up (above) the earth, but it is easy to reach the heavens for the one who is able to stand up from Earth one millimeter. If you can't do it, it is impossible. Which one of you have this qadama sidqin? Muslim scholars, Christian holy ones, Jewish rabbis, are you trying, can you stand up? You know! I am not claiming that I am making this, no! But that reality is mentioned in the Old Testament, New Testament and the Holy Qur'an. The one who is asking to walk or to get up to the Divine Presence needs qadama sidqin. Allah Almighty was ordering Sayyidina Musa: Innee ana Rabbuka fakhl`a n`alayk innaka bi 'l-waadi 'l-muqaddasi Tuwa, Verily, I am your Lord! So take off your shoes; you are in the sacred valley, Tuwa. (TaHa, 20:12) You are Arab `ulamas, what does it mean? Hundreds of books you may write on it and finished. Allah Almighty was saying to Musa, fakhl`a n`alayk innaka bi 'l-waadi 'l-muqaddasi Tuwa. What is Tuwa? You are knowing nothing! Fakhl`a n`alayk: mostly, you do not see a difference between a clean place and a dirty place when you are walking with these shoes on Earth. You just step, and there may be dirtiness under. Allah Almighty's address to Sayyidina Musa (a), is some thing and to common people, another. If you do not leave your dirty steps, you can't move up! Or you can't be on a clean Earth so that the Lord of Heavens addresses you. May Allah forgive us. O People! Try to understand, it is important. If you are not understanding, you can't step forward. May Allah forgive us for the honor of the most honored, beloved and glorified servant in the Divine Presence, Sayyidina Muhammad (s). (Mawlana Shaykh stands and sits.) (Mawlana Shaykh sings.)

Dastur, ya Rijal-Allah. Don't set out without "Destur". When you ask for "Destur", the holy ones will lead you to a good path. You will be inspired with whatever is good for you. It is very good. Ask for "Destur". O beloved servants of Allah, O pure ones, O beloved of the Holy Prophet, O lovers of Shah Mardan, Allah's pure servants, let us set out with your permission - saying Bismillahir-Rahmani r-Rahim. O how lovely, how very lovely. Ah, how beautiful, how very beautiful! There once was one "majzub", the meaning of "majzub" is to be in the grip of divine attraction, a person who is enraptured with the Majesty of Allah Almighty. What are we, in the face of the Majesty of the Almighty? We are Nothing. This man used to say: "Ah, how beautiful, how beautiful!" He said: "There is nothing ugly. Ah, how lovely!" He looked right, left, straight ahead, and always he said: "Ah, how lovely!" O Shah Mardan, we ask you to give us of your beautiful wisdom which will gladden our hearts; we are wating for that. Yawmun jadid, rizqun jadid - A new day, new sustenance. He does not give us yesterday's provisions. The Sultan, in his kitchens they do not leave yesterday's meal. Yawmun jadid, rizqun jadid - With every day there is new provision. O Lovers of Shah Mardan! let there be love, let there be yearning! ask olsun! sevk olsun. Let it teach you/mesk olsun! to say: Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. Speak and have no fear. Say Allah and don't be afraid, Jalla Jalaluhu. When you speak Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim completely, in perfection: Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim, we have opened our eyes, we have opened our eyes. May Your beloved servants open our hearts, o Lord. Allah, Allah... How beautiful is this human condition. What a shame that there is no one left who is able to understand such beautiful things. That is why those who can explain them are now hidden. "wal-awliya-u ikhtafaw": a time will come when the Friends of Allah will be hidden. Why is that

I don’t think that anyone (is) saying on that point now. (They) can’t say. We are saying on the worst demands of people. Yesterday someone, they are asking to me: “O Sheikh, I am going to make a consulting with you for some important thing.” I am saying: “Yes, you may ask.” He was saying: “O my Sheikh! We have a car; it is in a good condition, very good condition, its motor, its tyres is excellent. But my wife (is) saying: ‘O my Darling, what do you think, that we can change our car, because it is just (the) new year, coming with (a) new fashion. We must change our old car in a new model car. What do you think, o my darling? You know, o my Darling, (it is) my hobby that I like to have a Mercedes car, because our car is Ford car and (the) Ford car- Ford (is) not like Mercedes. And I am looking, looking through magazines that new models of Mercedes cars (are) first class!” “O my Darling, what you are saying! (Even) if (there is a) new fashion of Mercedes cars- do you think that they are flying? Or they are also travelling on same Autobahns?” “O my Darling, don’t say this! Only we must put our new fashion Mercedes car, you and me to stand up in front of our new car, in front of our house, so that people may say: ‘Oh’- it is enough for me: to be seen in front of new fashion Mercedes car!” “O my Darling, I must look... I must look for that...” “O my Darling, I don’t like to say: ‘I must look’. You must follow what I am saying, what (is) making me happy! O my Darling, ohh, I am going to cry...!” Hundreds and thousands (of) traps (is) putting for mankind, Shaitan, to occupy them from their real missions through this life! They are not going to think on (the) most important position that the Day of Resurrection Allah Almighty (is) calling them: “O My servant, come and show your real face! Show your real habits, show (your) real mission, what you did through your life!” To make them to forget it, (Shaitan is) engaging people with fashions.

Therefore you must learn and you must know and you must follow. (The) Holy Quran (is) coming for to be known, coming to be learnt and (for) knowing and practising. That gives to you an honour and glory along of your eternal life; (it) gives to you honour and over honour glorifying up to endless, up to eternity! O people, don’t waste yourselves, your efforts, for nothing, but try to use your efforts to reach eternity! Eternity, that you should find... through every moment or second you should find something that never happened before and you should take such a pleasure through your eternal life! Think on it! Don’t waste your times with shaitanic things! And through that way Shaitan (is) just occupying people and catching them and doing what he is asking to do on people... Learn! Now so many people (are) speaking, speaking, speaking, speaking... we are not asking too much speaking- from (something) small you must understand an ocean! May Allah forgive us!

FAST! HUNGER WILL BREAK THE PRIDE OF YOUR EGO!
You are the Sultan, the Sultan of Sultans. You are the Great, no-one can be great, only You, our Lord. Every greatness is nothing in front of your Divine Greatness. We are nothing. In this holy month Allah Almighty grants us from his Endless Blessings and we need his Blessings. Although we are nothing, we claim to be something by giving ourselves empty titles so that we can get a value. But even if you try to give this value to yourself, it is nothing. It is useless. As long as a person wants to give himself a value, he will be cheap, cheaper, cheapest... Because as long as someone is claiming to be something, he will be looking at his own power, his knowledge, his position, his business, his rank, his family, his race, his richness... With all this he will want to give himself a value, but in reality he is becoming cheaper and cheaper and he will fall down into the dustbin and become rubbish himself. If you try to be something, I will come and look at you when you are dying, and after death I will look to see how you are. You will probably be smelling badly! Is that your value? You, who are claiming to be such an important one! If you really think you are so valuable, let me take you to the market of dead bodies after you have died, and then let us see how valuable you are! Yes, that is the value of all of those who are claiming to be something now. Some people put stars on their shoulders or badges. Even children are proud when they wear lions, or wolves or foxen on their pocket. People are not using their mind and that is why they are becoming like small children. They are happy and

even proud with such useless things. Pride only belongs to the Lord of Heavens. He has the right to be proud, no-one else. No-one has the right to be proud. This century is the century of pride. Everyone are proud-ones. When they are proud they will be jealous, envious, merciless and injust people. All those characteristics come from pride. Of all creatures, the first proud-one was Satan. He claimed to be proud, and all the angels kicked him down. He was kicked from the highest position to the lowest. We are fasting. We must fast, because we have been ordered to. Since the first man until today, it is a heavenly order: "Oh, mankind, you must fast!". Fasting makes you humble. When you are full, you will be proud and it is not for you, to be proud. That is why it is the most important worshipping, to fast. The Seal of Prophets mentioned to his nation and to all nations: "For everything there is an entrance, and the entrance of worshipping is fasting. Without fasting, you cannot be a worshipper. Why? Because your ego will not let you. It will first reject, object and refuse to be a servant. Your ego will tell Allah, "Come down and I will go up!" That is how dirty the characteristics of the ego is. It is the worst creature that has ever been created, your ego. But it is so powerful. It even asks Allah Almighty to come down! It will never accept to be a servant. Try it yourself. Everyone has an ego. Do you think that your ego is an obedient servant? Isn't it always rejecting and refusing to fast and pray and to do this or that? Isn't it always asking to do wrong things? It always wants to be against the rules of heavens. It wants to be free. What is that foolishness of the people of the 20th century? They want to be free-ones! That is the claim of their egos. They do not want to be under any control or command. They want to be absolutely free. That means they are saying, "You are there Allah, I am here!" May they be forgiven... Nothing can be more effective to put the ego down, than hunger. When Allah Almighty created the ego, He asked, "Who are you and who am I?" The ego answered, "You are you and I am I." It did not say, "You are my Lord and I am your servant!" Allah then ordered the ego to be put 1000 years into hell-fire. After that the ego was asked the same question again and it gave the same answer. It was then ordered to be put into the cold hell for another 1000 years. Again it gave the same answer. It was then ordered to be put into the valley of hunger for 1000 years, hungry. When it was brought out and asked, "Who am I and who are you?", the ego answered, "You are my Lord, my powerful Lord and I am your weak servant." It was trembling. Nothing except hunger can make the ego declare servanthood. That is why since the first man, we have been ordered to fast. It is in the Old Testament, New Testament and all other Heavenly Books. The fastings in

those books are very difficult. The easiest fasting has been given to the nation of Sayyidina Muhammad, may peace be upon him. Even for his nation, fasting was difficult in the beginning. During the first few years, the companions of the prophet were only allowed to have a break of the fast between maghrib and isha. After isha they had to fast again. So they has a fast of 22 hours. Then Allah Almighty made it easier for the nation. We can eat and drink and enjoy all night until dawn. Even if it is the easiest fasting, many people are not observing it. But it is the best treatment for our physical being and also the best treatment for our egos. It is also the best treatment for our souls, to enable them to go up to the heavens. While you are fasting, your soul is asking to reach higher levels in the heavens. Try to keep this rule of fasting as much as possible. If you are new and you haven't been fasting before, try to fast, make the intention. That is the most important factor of obediency and worshipping. Allah Almighty will not accept any worship without the intention. You must intend to do a worshipping for the pleasure of Allah Almighty, intending to follow his Holy Command. If not, it is not a worshipping. Use your intention! "I am praying for the pleasure of my Lord! I am fasting to follow his Holy Command and to make him happy and pleased with me." Every action that a believer wants to do, should be done in the rememberance of Allah, to make Him pleased with us. If you want to do anything, and you know it is going to make Him pleased, then do it! If not, then don't do it, beware! Some punishment can come to you sooner or later. Don't be cheated, if the Lord Almighty Allah gives you your punishment later, it doesn't mean that He is not punishing. No! Don't be cheated if He is delaying his punishment. It only means that He is waiting to see if you are repenting, or not. He wants all his servants to ask for pardon. When you intend, you will find the capacity to fast, to complete your fast. If you are a beginner and you do not reach that point, even though you have intended, and on the first day of fasting you realise at noon time that you cannot continue, then break your fast. Try the second day. You can then improve and add another hour, and so on you add one more every day. By the middle of Ramadan you will be able to complete your day. That is a way, step by step to reach our target. Don't say that you can't, and don't be too strict. Even our children are not too keen on worshipping. Teach them step by step. And with new Muslims be tolerant, oh Muslims! Don't say anyone is impossible. It is only a question of training. Italy - 01.03.1994

(Mawlana Shaykh sits.) We are asking the Lord of Creation, thabbitna `ala al-Haqq, keep our feet fixed on the right path! And we saying to our attenders also, as-salaamu `alaykum, those who are giving some time for their Lord's pleasure and trying to make their Lord, Allah Almighty (Mawlana Shaykh stands.) happy and pleased with them and to be rejoicing in them. (Mawlana Shaykh sits.) May Allah forgive us for the honor of His most honored one. O our Attenders who may be from common people, or `ulamas, or from learned people, or from those who are asking to not show that they are hearing such things, because Shaytan is threatening them, "You are `ulamas, and you are listening to such an unauthorized person?" Yes, I am not authorized by official centers and I am not an official. I am only a weak servant who has been appointed by that one who is controlling everything on Earth and they are trying to keep Believers from falling into bad conditions or dangerous situations. We have been controlled by that one, and the most important thing is that Shaytan is now going to be upset, very upset! Ptuu, and upset you, Shaytan! He is angry with me and I am angry with him also. (Mawlana Shaykh laughs.) My supporter is the one who appointed such a weak servant, perhaps the weakest servant on Earth! And I am not asking heavenly support through its last level, only here, and from him who is responsible for Believers, to not fall in Shaytan's traps. This is an association. What they are causing me to speak, I may say. May Allah forgive me and forgive you. Ask His forgiveness, O people! Everyone in Creation is asking forgiveness from their Creator. Without forgiveness, no blessings are coming. If blessings are not coming, in a second or less this planet will disappear, finish, wa huwa `ala kulli shay'in qadeer, "He is able to do everything He wants." O `ulamas, is this against `aqeedatu 'l-Islam, the belief of Muslims? Say! Do you think He is not able to take away this world and others like this world, thousands, billions, trillions, quadrillions, pentillions, before 'qaaf' reaches 'noon'? Are you believing this? You must believe in the Creator's Endless Power Oceans! You must believe in your Creator's Will Power, in His Divine Attributes. If He says, kun fayakoon, "Be! And it is," and if He says, "Finish," everything will disappear through His Power Oceans. You must say this so people so they may know their Lord, their Creator's power! Something la yudhkar, not to be mentioned, yet in a very short time everything may disappear. Wa huwa `alaa kulli shayin qadeer.

O doctors, O `ulamas, make it so wide that people may understand. Say! Where are they going to disappear to? That is beyond all your imaginations! He, Almighty may say, "Quickly! Everything in existence, inside a dharra, atom!" And all this will take its position in an atom. (Mawlana Shaykh laughs). Yes, `ala kulli shayin qadeer. Don't say, "It can't be." There is no argument on this. (Mawlana Shaykh stands.) Allah (swt), wa huwa `alaa kulli shayin qadeer. (Mawlana Shaykh sits.) He may take everything in existence and order it into an atom. Are you saying this, O Salafi `ulamas, O doctors? Is it true what this weak one is saying? Don't think these are a weak one's words. If it is just on the level of your understanding, it is the last level! Allahu akbar, wa lillahi 'l-hamd! If a person is inquiring about a king's territory and power and we say one is a king of a small island, and the other is a King whose territory runs from east to west then you may understand the value of one against the other. You may say US, (is a donkey, but we have to say) its territory from north to south, is on a new continent, "oh, so powerful." And, "who is that one?" "That is the king of Malta." One spot. If you say, "that is the king of Siberia, his territory is from east to west," then you are understanding his power, so you try to give your best salute and obedience to that one. Therefore, `ulamas, Salafi or non-Salafi, doctors or others, as much as people give glory and greatness to the Lord of Heavens, they take more care, fearing that they can't do as they like, no! They are fearful (of their Lord.) O Salafi `ulamas, do you know what the Seal of Prophets (s) said? He said, Raasu 'l-hikmata makhaafatu'Llah. "The head of wisdom is to fear Allah (swt)." (related by ibn Abi Shayba, al-Hakim at- Tirmidhi, Abu Na`eem in his Hilyah, al-Bayhaqi in Shu`ab al-Iman and others, authentic [sahih]). It is only four words, but it gives people such a huge maidaan, level, that they may understand something from makhaafatullah, (in order) to make them fear and tremble in front of the Lord's greatness and glory! Therefore, it is important, O `ulamas, to speak each time, everyday, about the greatness of our Lord, Almighty Allah. (Mawlana Shaykh stands and sits.) And according to your fear of your Lord, you are given such an ability; the capacity to give your most high respect and glory to your Lord, (because) you are trembling in front of His greatness, fearing, and keeping the right way! Therefore, just four words, raasu 'l-hikmati makhaafatullah, covers the whole world and teaches them. If one is not in fear of his Lord, it means, that person is ignorant and does not have good manners. And if a person
http://www.sufismus-online.de/FearAllah (3 von 6)04.07.2013 23:16:50
2988 Maulana Sheikh Nazim: FearAllah
does not have good manners there is no value for him in the Divine Presence. On the Day of Resurrection those who were giving ta`zheem, their highest glory and endless respect to their Lord, will be accepted and granted such a glory that others will not be given. Therefore, heavenly ranks granted to people will be according to their fear of their Lord! Fearless peoples' level is under the level of animals; not on the level of animals, but under it. And when we are saying, 'under the level of animals,' you can't find an end for these levels. Marhaban, ayyuha 'l-mulook, ayyuha 'l-`ulamas! Who is a real malik? The one who may keep his ego on the level of ta`zheem, glorification of Allah Almighty. Those who are able to lower their levels as much as possible in front of their Lord's greatness, have been granted such greatness from the Lord of Heavens. Therefore, that hadith shareef, raasu 'l-hikmati makhaafatullah: the one who is honored in this life is in fear of his Lord, and then everyone will fear that one! As an example, once upon a time, one of those who glorified their Lord Almighty, was riding through a jungle. It was so dark there and he was tired. He was keeping his horse there and sleeping. After a while a person came past and said, "O my Lord, who is this, here? 'Oh, stranger, have you never been here? This is the most dangerous place for wild animals and serpents? Quickly, go from here!'" He kept sleeping, and anyone looking at him was trembling! Whichever serpent, tiger or lion came to him was trembling, because of his 'halo,' as our Christian brothers say. They put this, so that it may be known that that is a heavenly one. He is not like ordinary people. Men, if looking, would see this. All wild animals also, when they approached, would see that circle, that halo around him and run away! Therefore, everyone fears those who keep makhaafatullah, the fear of Allah Almighty. Even if they were thrown in fire on the Day of Resurrection, fire would run away from their power. Makhafatullah! Allah Allah. Now, you, O `ulamas, are you reminding people of such things? Reminding is the most important pillar for believing in your Lord Almighty. Therefore, all prophets have been ordered: an andhiri 'n-naas, "Warn Mankind," to make them take care to give their adab in the Divine Presence of their Creator, that is important, wa thiyaabaka fatahhir, "And keep your garments free of stain." You must clean yourself from every wrong belief and you must believe in the greatness of your Lord, Almighty Allah, that He is going to accept you or you are going to be rubbish, thrown away.

O People! How are you asking to reach those levels? You can't reach those levels with ordinary feet, no! O `ulamas? What is the Lord of Heavens saying? He is saying, qadama sidqin, "The lofty rank of Truth." Yes? I am not knowing the entire Holy Qur'an by heart, but something is coming to me, and I am speaking on it. Are you understanding? If you don't have qadama sidqin, true steps, you can't move up even a millimeter. You can't stand up (above) the earth, but it is easy to reach the heavens for the one who is able to stand up from Earth one millimeter. If you can't do it, it is impossible. Which one of you have this qadama sidqin? Muslim scholars, Christian holy ones, Jewish rabbis, are you trying, can you stand up? You know! I am not claiming that I am making this, no! But that reality is mentioned in the Old Testament, New Testament and the Holy Qur'an. The one who is asking to walk or to get up to the Divine Presence needs qadama sidqin. Allah Almighty was ordering Sayyidina Musa: Innee ana Rabbuka fakhl`a n`alayk innaka bi 'l-waadi 'l-muqaddasi Tuwa, Verily, I am your Lord! So take off your shoes; you are in the sacred valley, Tuwa. (TaHa, 20:12) You are Arab `ulamas, what does it mean? Hundreds of books you may write on it and finished. Allah Almighty was saying to Musa, fakhl`a n`alayk innaka bi 'l-waadi 'l-muqaddasi Tuwa. What is Tuwa? You are knowing nothing! Fakhl`a n`alayk: mostly, you do not see a difference between a clean place and a dirty place when you are walking with these shoes on Earth. You just step, and there may be dirtiness under. Allah Almighty's address to Sayyidina Musa (a), is some thing and to common people, another. If you do not leave your dirty steps, you can't move up! Or you can't be on a clean Earth so that the Lord of Heavens addresses you. May Allah forgive us. O People! Try to understand, it is important. If you are not understanding, you can't step forward. May Allah forgive us for the honor of the most honored, beloved and glorified servant in the Divine Presence, Sayyidina Muhammad (s). (Mawlana Shaykh stands and sits.) (Mawlana Shaykh sings.)

Dastur, ya Rijal-Allah. Don't set out without "Destur". When you ask for "Destur", the holy ones will lead you to a good path. You will be inspired with whatever is good for you. It is very good. Ask for "Destur". O beloved servants of Allah, O pure ones, O beloved of the Holy Prophet, O lovers of Shah Mardan, Allah's pure servants, let us set out with your permission - saying Bismillahir-Rahmani r-Rahim. O how lovely, how very lovely. Ah, how beautiful, how very beautiful! There once was one "majzub", the meaning of "majzub" is to be in the grip of divine attraction, a person who is enraptured with the Majesty of Allah Almighty. What are we, in the face of the Majesty of the Almighty? We are Nothing. This man used to say: "Ah, how beautiful, how beautiful!" He said: "There is nothing ugly. Ah, how lovely!" He looked right, left, straight ahead, and always he said: "Ah, how lovely!" O Shah Mardan, we ask you to give us of your beautiful wisdom which will gladden our hearts; we are wating for that. Yawmun jadid, rizqun jadid - A new day, new sustenance. He does not give us yesterday's provisions. The Sultan, in his kitchens they do not leave yesterday's meal. Yawmun jadid, rizqun jadid - With every day there is new provision. O Lovers of Shah Mardan! let there be love, let there be yearning! ask olsun! sevk olsun. Let it teach you/mesk olsun! to say: Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. Speak and have no fear. Say Allah and don't be afraid, Jalla Jalaluhu. When you speak Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim completely, in perfection: Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim, we have opened our eyes, we have opened our eyes. May Your beloved servants open our hearts, o Lord. Allah, Allah... How beautiful is this human condition. What a shame that there is no one left who is able to understand such beautiful things.
