of Baghdad. The ulama' of Turkey should not fear. It is not the mark of the Turk to be afraid The Turks have courage. For 1,000 yrs they held aloft the banner of Islam. Now they have taken down that banner and made up a different flag. Their affairs are not prospering and will not prosper. Allahu Allah, Allahu Hasbi, Allahu Allah, Allahu Rabbi, Allahu Allah, Allahu Hasbi, Allahu Allah, Allahu Rabbi. None is His equal! O our Lord, forgive us! Forgive us, and send us a leader. We are of the Nation of Ibrahim. Who is not of the Nation of Ibrahim will be cut down and disappear. They will have no future. The world of Islam must say this, as well as those who accept Isa as their prophet; they too must say: We are believers coming from the lineage of Ibrahim Khalilullah! Let them say this and be saved. Tawba, ya Rabbi! Tawba, ya Rabbi! By the blessings manifested on this day of Juma’a forgive us, send us a leader, o our Lord. I am a weak servant, o my Lord, tawba, ya Rabbi! Tawba, ya Rabbi, tawba astaghfirullah, al-Fatiha. Lefke, 12.04.2013

The Minister And The Sultan

Chief Minister, His Excellency. Allahu Akbar, Al Hamdulillah. How are you? Masha'Allah. C.M. I am very happy actually. M: First of all we are thanking the Lord of Heavens Allah Almighty. Then we are giving our best wishes and salat & salam to Sayyidi Al Awwalin wa Al Akhirina, Sayyidina Muhammad (sas). And thirdly we are giving our best wishes to his Majesty Sultan of Perak. Just he gave to me whole Perak & he said to me take it.... C.M.: He is sending salam to Mawlana, Sultan of Perak. M: How is his health? C.M.: Now he can walk already. M: His Majesty, as long as his hand on charities, don't worry. P.M.: Insha'Allah. M: He must not worry. Al Hamdulillah.. no need but London doctors making small thing, big thing. Never needs as long as his Majesty's hand is in charity. Insha'Allah we are praying for his Majesty and her Majesty & Raja Muda also and marhum, Raja Ashman's wife. I am crying that he was here last time coming & saying Dawlat Twanko! One Dawlat Twanko! One more time behind him. One word also he was saying, Apahabar! Hand go here & here he was saying this. I met him in Damascus, before people saying to me he passed away. I am surprising idea. I met him in Damascus. Raja Ashman. He had spiritually power, like 'amud/ pillar! C.M. Very strong, yes Al Hamdulillah. M: Therefore saying to me passed away I am saying I am looking in Damascus, how it is going to be. Sham.... Awliya'/ Saints most of them are in Sham. Insha'Allah we shall see him under the flag of Rasul Allah (saws). Fatiha. Before your excellency, there was another Chief Minister. I was looking his Majesty putting his sword here. P.M. Yes! M. Subhana Allah he dressed the dressing of heybet/glory. Heybet/glory.... His excellency, dressing he has a

heybet/glory. But like this, I am thinking Municipal worker. M.N.: Next time you have to dress officially. M: How is it? I am managing, don't ask me. How is Abdul Najib effendi, Najib. The Prime Minister. C.M.: Al Hamdulillah, he sending salams to Mawlana, I told him that I am coming to see Mawlana. He said "say, salams & pray for the elections." M: I am going to make dua for him if he is taking care of people in Burma, that shaytan people killing Muslims to take care for not threatening those shaytan people. C.M.: I will insha'Allah, I will. M: And Allah Almighty going to be his helper if he is doing this. But I am sorry that no one looking. C.M.: It's Dato... M: Masha'Allah. Be true one, no need for anything else. Don't worry, Mustaqim/Straight. The Lord of Heavens with you. But like this like this...shaytan. "Salamun Qawlan Min Rabbin Rahimin" (36:58) "Peace be on you, a word from the Lord, Most Merciful." (36:58) May Allah (swt) be a supporter & protector for you & His most Beloved Prophet (saws). C.M.: Shukran Mawlana, insha'Allah, insha'Allah... M: Astaghfirullah. Please kiss his Majesty's here.. Not from here, he is Sultan. Not here, Sultan, that is adab/ good manners. On his behalf. C.M. I will, I will. M: Her Majesty also Alina, Raja Muda, I like him. Raja Muda, masha'Allah chevalier chevalier, knight! Insha'Allah. Ya Rabbi Ya Karim...Ya Rabbi Ya.. Ya Rabbi Ya Karim Tell his Majesty gives me his dua for me also. I am praying for him. Fatiha. I hope to see you there with your National dressing. Wa aleikum salam...La Ilaha, illa Allah! La Ilaha, illa Allah! La Ilaha illa Allah! Sayyidina Muhammad Rasul Allah (saws). H.R.: They put in Sultan's heart 4 stents. They are saying insha'Allah it's ok & they ask dua from you. M: I am asking healthy life, long life for his Majesty Sultan Azlan Shah. as long as His Majesty's hand is for people, giving charity to them, don't worry about his Majesty's health. Prophet (saws) saying "cure your illness with sadaqa." The Holy Prophet (saws) "O people, make cure for your illnesses by giving your charity." Everyday may give charity & he is not going to be worried, even giving his charity, but now he may give more for his health, daily. And I am asking that they may look after people, Burma people, to look after them as much as possible, charities and to give their support for Muslims in Burma. That is a biggest charity for Sultan, his Majesty Sultan. May Allah (swt) gives him long life for these charities and to be his honour to

this... To be in East & West well known that he is supporting weak Muslims, and poor Muslims under the oppressor of that shaytan, non-believing people. That is all. And he must not worry & hope that he may reach to Mahdi (as). As Salam Alaykum. Der Minister und der Sultan

MN: Ministerpräsident, Seine Exzellenz. CM: Allahu Akbar, Alhamdulillah. M: Wie geht es? Masha'Allah. CM: Ich bin in der Tat sehr glücklich. M: Zuerst einmal danken wir dem Herrn der Himmel, Allah dem Allmächtigen. Dann geben wir unsere besten Wünsche und Salatu wa Salam an Sayyidi l-Awwalin wa l-Akhirin, Sayyidina Muhammad (saws). Und drittens geben wir unsere besten Wünsche an Seine Majestät, den Sultan von Perak. Er gab mir gerade ganz Perak und sagt mir: Nimm es! Und ich habe es genommen. CM: Er sendet Salams an Mawlana, der Sultan von Perak. M: Wie ist seine Gesundheit? CM: Er kann jetzt schon laufen. M: Seine Majestät, solange seine Hand in Werken der Wohltätigkeit ist, besteht keine Sorge. PM: Insha'Allah. M: Er soll sich nicht beunruhigen. Alhamdulillah. Keine Notwendigkeit, aber die Londoner Ärzte machen aus einer kleinen Sache eine große. Es ist nicht notwendig, solange die Hand Seiner Majestät in Werken der Wohltätigkeit ist. Insha'Allah, wir beten für Seine Majestät und Ihre Majestät und Raja Muda auch und Marhum, Raja Ashmans Frau. Ich weine, daß er das letzte Mal hierher kam und sagte Dawlat Twanko! Ein Dawlat Twanko! Noch einmal hinter ihm. Ein Wort sagte er auch: Apahabar! Die Hand hier, und hier sagte er das. Ich traf ihn in Damaskus, bevor die Leute mir sagten, er sei dahingegangen. Ich war überrascht. Ich traf ihn in Damaskus, Raja Ashman. Er hatte geistige Macht, wie 'Amud, ein Pfeiler. CM: Sehr stark, ja, Alhamdulillah. M: Deshalb, als sie mir sagten, er sei dahingegangen, sagte ich, ich habe ihn in Damaskus gesehen, wie soll das sein. Sham... Die Awliya, die Heiligen, die meisten von ihnen sind in Sham. Insha'Allah werden wir ihn unter der Flagge Rasulullahs (saws) sehen. Fatiha. Vor Euerer Exzellenz war ein anderer Ministerpräsident. Ich sah Seine Majestät sein Schwert hierhinlegen.

PM: Ja! Subhanallah, er trug das Gewand von Heybet, Herrlichkeit. Heybet, Herrlichkeit... Seine Exzellenz kleidete sich in Heybet, Herrlichkeit. Aber so, denke ich, Städtischer Angestellter. MN: Nächstes Mal mußt du dich offiziell kleiden. M: Wie geht es? Ich komme zurecht, fragt nicht. Wie geht es Abdul Najib Effendi, Najib? Dem Premierminister? CM: Alhamdulillah, er sendet Salams an Mawlana. Ich sagte ihm, daß ich Mawlana besuchen gehe. Er sagte: 'Sag Salams und betet für die Wahlen.' M: Ich werde Dua für ihn machen, wenn er sich um die Menschen in Burma kümmert, wo shaytanische Leute Muslime töten, daß er dafür sorgt, daß nicht... und diese shaytanischen Leute bedroht. CM: Ich werde es ihm sagen, insha'Allah. M: Und Allah der Allmächtige wird sein Helfer sein, wenn er das tut. Aber es tut mir leid, daß niemand hinsieht. CM: Es ist... M: Masha'Allah. Sei aufrecht, nichts anderes ist notwendig. Mach dir keine Sorgen. Mustaqim - gerade. Der Herr der Himmel mit dir. Aber so, so... Shaytan. "Salamun Qawlan Min Rabbin Rahim" (36:58). Frieden, ein Wort von einem barmherzigen Herrn. (36:58) Möge Allah (swt) ein Helfer und Beschützer für euch sein und Sein meistgeliebter Prophet (saws). CM: Shukran Mawlana, insha'Allah, insha'Allah... M: Astaghfirullah. Bitte küßt seine Majestät hier.. Nicht von hier, er ist Sultan. Nicht hier, Sultan, das ist Adab, gutes Benehmen. In seinem Namen. CM: Das werde ich, das werde ich. M: Ihre Majestät auch, Alina, Raja Muda, ich mag ihn. Raja Muda, masha'Allah, Chevalier, Chevalier, Ritter! Insha'Allah. Ya Rabbi ya Karim... Ya Rabbi ya.. Ya Rabbi ya Karim.. Sagt Seiner Majestät, daß er auch Dua für mich macht. Ich bete für ihn. Fatiha. Ich hoffe euch da zu sehen in euerer Nationaltracht. Wa `alaykumu s- Salam... La ilaha illa Allah! La ilaha illa Allah! La ilaha illa Allah! Sayyidina Muhammad Rasul Allah (saws). HR: Sie haben 4 Stents in Sultans Herz getan. Sie sagen insha'Allah ist es okay, und sie bitten um Dua von dir. M: Ich bitte um ein gesundes Leben, ein langes Leben für Seine Majestät Sultan Azlan Shah. Solange die Hand Seiner Majestät für die Menschen da ist, ihnen Wohltätigkeit gibt, macht euch keine Sorgen um die Gesundheit Seiner Majestät. Der Prophet (saws) sagt: 'Heilt euere Krankheit mit Sadaqa.' Der Heilige Prophet (saws): 'Ihr Leute, erlangt Heilung für euere Krankheiten durch das Geben von Almosen.' Jeden Tag

könnt ihr Almosen geben, und er wird keine Sorgen haben müssen, auch wenn er schon Almosen gegeben hat, aber jetzt soll er mehr geben für seine Gesundheit, täglich. Und ich bitte, daß sie sich kümmern um die Menschen, die Menschen in Burma, daß sie sich, so viel sie können, um sie kümmern, den Muslimen in Burma Wohltätigkeit und Unterstützung zukommen lassen. Das ist das größte Werk der Wohltätigkeit für den Sultan, Seine Majestät den Sultan. Möge Allah (swt) ihm ein langes Leben geben für diese Werke der Wohltätigkeit, und sei seine Ehre darin, in Ost und West wohlbekannt zu sein als Unterstützer schwacher Muslime und armer Muslime unter der Bedrückung dieses Shaytans, der ungläubigen Menschen. Das ist alles. Und er muß sich keine Sorgen machen und hoffen, daß er Mahdi (as) erreicht. As-Salamu Alaykum. Lefke, 24.12.2012

Miracle of the Stick

Ahlan wa sahlan wa marhaban.. Welcome, o my listeners. O Lord, we are weak. Strengthen us in our weakness on the path to Your Good Pleasure. The tiniest bit that You grant us to strengthen us in our weakness will turn us into lions, O’ our Lord. Our Subhan, our Sultan, He made us to be of the Nation of His Beloved. How fortunate we are, what a good fortune, they say. Thanks to Allah, He made us to be of the Nation of Muhammad (saw). 124.000 noble companions followed him in his ways. Our glorious and elevated Prophet. Allahu akbar. Thanks to You, O’ Lord, qawwi da’fana fi ridak. Strengthen us in our weakness.. O’ our Lord, we are weak! To be of service on your way, strengthen this weak body of ours. Qawwi da’fana. If you want to rid yourself of your weakness - O Shah-i Mardan, Habibu r- Rahman Habib [Beloved] wa Nadid [Counterpart], Shah-i Mardan! Cousin of the Prince of Creation, the most honoured Sultan, O’ Beloved of Allah. How lovely! As-salamu ‘aleykum, O’ Lovers of Shah-i Mardan! Dastur, ya Shah-i Mardan, Habibu r-Rahman. We shall attempt to translate your words. It is now left to the likes of us to do this, for in these times the Blessed Ones do not see it fit to address people. Nowadays people have forgotten their humanity and become beasts. Therefore, "Kallim un-nasa 'ala qadari 'uqulihim". That is a command: Speak to people according to what their minds can grasp. Now if you were, Heaven forbid, to place a tray of baklava in front of a four-footed donkey, and a bowl full of straw on the other side, he will look at the tray of baklava, and say: "That's no good to me." He will turn to the straw, and gulp down his soup of straw, then he will raise his donkey voice and bray. He will begin to stomp and say: "Is there anybody stronger than I am! I am a lion!" No! The lion eats no straw, the donkey does. So, if a straw-eater gets up and makes claims for himself, saying: I am the most high ranking of all animals in this

http://www.sufismus-online.de/MiracleOfTheStick (1 von 22)04.07.2013 23:25:47

5886 Maulana Sheikh Nazim: MiracleOfTheStick

world! There are indeed those who make such claims. One day the lion happened to meet with that donkey. He looked at the donkey. What kind of creature is that? He has no mane, no whiskers, he resembles me in no way. Let me get a closer look at him. What kind is he, I wonder? When he approaches, the donkey looks at him and wonders: Who is that one? He begins to bray, and at the sudden sound of his braying the lion is startled and jumps back. "What sort of creature is this? That kind of braying, we have never heard before. We don't like that at all," he said and spoke to the donkey "Hey, look at me! I am the king of the jungle, but I don't have such a voice. What kind of animal are you?" The donkey said: "I am a strong animal that can transport heavy loads through the forests, the mountains and stony wastes," he said. Now he drew closer and, when the lion got close up, the donkey, seeing the lion approach, stuck his ears up straight and began to bray once more in his loudest voice. At this the lion jumped back and withdrew, saying: "What a powerful creature this is to oppose me!" "Who are you?" asked the donkey. "I am the king of the jungle," said the lion. "I don't recognize any king," said the donkey, "The kingship is mine!" When he brayed again, the lion thought: "I'd better leave him and get out of here. His voice will bust my eardrums. I can't cope with this one, I had better go and get lost." Let us say: Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. How lovely! O’ Shah-i Mardan! Come and let our gathering be cheered by your counsel. Let us learn good manners, and let us also learn wisdom. Please come, O’ Shah-i Mardan, this is your arena. From the beginning of the world to its end, the rank of King of Men is yours. Each one of the prophets was given a special distinction. The disctinction of the Prophet of the Last Times (sas) was that he was given Shah-i Mardan. His sword was to show miracle powers, as well as to destroy shaytan and its helpers. Shah-i Mardan. Therefore, O’ Friends of Shah-i Mardan, O’ Lovers of Shah-i Mardan, come here and listen. Even if you can only keep two of his words, his blessed words will benefit you. Let us begin: We are Muslims. Al-hamdulillah! Say it! The honour of Islam is higher than any other honour. Huwa sammakum ul-muslimin.. (22:78) Allah Almighty named the highest rank He was to give to man by name. Our Lord - subhanahu wa ta’ala - called people Muslims. "Those who keep My commands are Muslims. But who ignores My command is not a Muslim. Those are of no value to Me. The true value of a human being, in My view, lies in their being Muslim. Respect this rank!"

http://www.sufismus-online.de/MiracleOfTheStick (2 von 22)04.07.2013 23:25:47

5887 Maulana Sheikh Nazim: MiracleOfTheStick

Let us say: Bismillahi r-Rahmani r- Rahim. What is it that befits a Muslim? To begin with the mention of the Name of Allah Almighty, the Lord of Glory. We are Muslims. Allah has made us the gift of the sacred Basmala. By our saying "Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim", by our bearing this honour, Allah Almighty, who is Wajib ul-Wujud, [of Necessary Existence] has made a gift to mankind. It is this that makes a man human. Without this man is not truly human. Pronouncing the Basmala is no light matter. Come, O Shah-i Mardan, this is your arena. O Lovers of Shah-i Mardan, friends who follow his way. They are beloved friends. They bear no enmity. There is no enmity in those following the way of Shah-i Mardan. They disdain to engage in hostilities for the sake of this world. They would not stoop so low. They are elevated, high. They would not make it their business to fight over carrion. This world is carrion, as all the prophets have said. They do not go to war over it. Who goes to war over the world is not a prophet, peace be upon them all. What is it all about? I'la-i kalimat-ullah, he says. The Word of Allah - Dhu l-Jalal - is supreme. They went to war to ascend with it. They fought in order to destroy unbelief. They drew their swords in order to save the people fooled by the scheming of shaytan and to save them from the traps that shaytan had set for them. The only one not to draw his sword was the prophet Isa, alayhi s-salam. And peace and blessings on our Holy Prophet. But he too spoke Bismillah. No prophet came without the Basmala. There was no prophet who did not say "Bismillahi r- Rahmani r-Rahim". This miracle was given to them. To perform their miracles the prophets would say"Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim". Musa (as), in order to part the waters, what did he say, O Shaykh? What did he say? The forty robbers, for entering their own cave of treasures, spoke the word: "susayim", it opened and they entered. With this word they entered their cave. Without this word it did not open. Therein lay their secret. The forty robbers spoke this word, the mountain opened and let them in. This was given to them. What about us, how does this world open up to mankind? How do they conquer this world? Whoever draws his sword without saying "Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim" cannot rule this world. Those who say "I rule" are rulers over the toilets of this world. He who rules over a toilet, is not really a ruler. He has no honour. Allah Almighty has made in this world a treasure; that treasure, in order to dress mankind with what He wants, with the dress befitting mankind, the

http://www.sufismus-online.de/MiracleOfTheStick (3 von 22)04.07.2013 23:25:47

5888 Maulana Sheikh Nazim: MiracleOfTheStick

key to that treasure is "Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim". The gateway to humanity opens with "Bismillahi r-Rahmani r- Rahim". Whoever does not say this he who says "susayim" [I had better shut up] like the forty robbers, also enters, but the place he enters is a toilet place. Those who speak the noble Basmala, their station reaches up to the Throne. Our Prophet (sas) reached up to the Heavenly Throne. Those who follow him, enter their stations according to their degrees of merit. Nobody will reach anywhere in this world or the next without uttering the Basmala. The gates of Paradise will open with "Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim". The gates of heaven and earth will open with "Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim". Do not forget the Basmala. If you forget, it means you are forgotten. Ash-hadu an la ilaha illa-llah wa ash-hadu anna Sayyidana Muhammadan 'abduhu wa habibuhu wa rasuluh. Speak this! After that it befits you to say: "Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim". May we have a good day. Come, o Shah-i Mardan, let us listen to you. Listen, O you Lovers of Shah-i Mardan. Don't get bored or fed up! We would not exhaust the virtues of the noble Basmala even if we spoke about them from the beginning to the end of the world. Whatever you want, whatever good you wish for, its secret will open with "Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim". If you forget this, you are rubbish. Nothing will open for you. "Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim" will open for you the treasures of this world, and place them beneath your feet. But no regard for you if you speak the Basmala for the sake of worldly treasures. No esteem. The Muslim's eye is trained on the heights. On the lofty stations. Therefore, man is upright and he gazes upward. The animals look down to the ground. Animals look at the earth, wherever there is grass to graze. They do not raise their heads to look upwards. But man looks in all directions, he looks at the sky, he looks at a flower, he looks at the sun, the moon, the stars. He looks at the rose, masha'Allah and he says: "Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim", O our Lord, You are the Owner of the Heavens and the Earth. All eternity is in Your possession. Your Existence knows no before or after. Your command comes to pass before it is spoken. Your command "kun" [Be!] is fulfilled before the "kaf" reaches the "nun". O mankind, glorify Allah Who keeps you alive! Call on Him by His Name of Divine Majesty, say: Ya Allah! Bismika Allahumma, ya Rabbi! By the honour of Your glorious Name, Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. Come, O Shah-i Mardan! Let us speak, he says, Shah-i Mardan. O you who forget Us! O you people who have lost their respect for Us! O you people who do not feel

bound by Our command and who have attached themselves to shaytan! You will serve not with your name, but with your being! I call you to the service of my Lord, praised be He and exalted. I call you to the path of His chief summoner, Habibullah, the Pride of all Creation! I am only a vehicle, the means, I do not exist. Only Allah Almighty, the Lord of Glory has Existence, and also the Beloved of the Merciful, Habibu r-Rahman, who has been taught by Him, the Pride of Creation who is the Sultan of Prophets. He is the Pride of all Creation. If you seek honour and fame, if you seek honour, then you must follow the honoured Prophet of the Last Times (sas). On his account we have become Shah-i Mardan. No prophet was not trained by him - All the prophets were taught by our Holy Prophet (sas). There is no prophet who was not taught by him. The Beloved of Allah, the only prophet who spoke to Allah, from him all the prophets have received their knowledge. All the glorious prophets took their knowledge from him (sas). For the etiquette of Allah is not like the etiquette that you are familiar with. Etiquette. Who is closest to Allah? In all the universe, who is closest to Allah? Who is it who spoke to Allah without an intermediary, who met Him, became acquainted with Him and was honoured by Him? Who is that? Only one single person raises the banner of La ilaha illa-llah from the beginning to the end of time, holds this banner aloft; he is Muhammadu r-Rasulullah, salla-llahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. Ya Rasulallah. O you people, if you are looking for honour don't run after false titles. Nowadays you will find people running after these. What do they resemble? A dog, - may Alah forgive me - will not leave your side as long as you have a bone in your hand. But as soon as he has grabbed the bone, he will no longer follow you. Make sure you are not like those ones! Allah Almighty has created the dog as a dog, with a love for his bone. There is nothing else that he loves with such a passion. A dog is after his bone, and a donkey is after his straw, but mankind, perfected man, is after those who observe the way of Allah the Merciful - jalla jalaluhu - and he will follow those walking in His Way. That is where his honour lies, not in licking bones or eating straw. But the people of our day and age, some of them are after bones, some after straw. Shame on them! Even though we belong to the religion of Truth, we are after bones, or after straw. Who has brought people to this low level? None but shaytan, the accursed. It is he. The troubles the people of our times are suffering are all for the sake of bones or straw. All people resemble either the dog or the donkey in their qualities. One kind runs after his bone, saying, "I will be top dog!" The other kind says, "Let me find bread, so I can be a donkey", and

http://www.sufismus-online.de/MiracleOfTheStick (5 von 22)04.07.2013 23:25:47

5890 Maulana Sheikh Nazim: MiracleOfTheStick

runs after his straw. It is Allah, jalla jalaluhu, who gives you honour. O you ignorant people, Allah Who does not even overlook an ant, will He leave you without provision? Why are you fighting? The treasuries of Allah are overflowing. Even the ant finds a little stick and manages its life. Each creature was created with the provision that is suitable for it. You must know this! Ta'allumu l-'ilm faridatun 'ala kulli muslimin wa muslima. Is there anything like Islam? - Tell me! To proclaim the glory of Islam this was said. What is the duty incumbent on every Muslim? Ta’allamu l-‘ilm, to acquire knowledge; knowledge is the highest rank given to mankind, given to people. It is an obligatory duty for people to seek to learn, to acquire knowledge. It is fard [duty], he says, for men and for women. Nowadays in all schools people are prevented from saying Allah. Even the Islamic world no longer does, and Christians don't allow it anyways. They show no regard for the prophets, nor for what they have brought. But they will teach what this and that philosopher has said. They hold philosophers in high esteem. What does the philosopher know? The sayings of the philosopher are the rumblings of his belly. One crazy parson appeared, what was his name? A parson named Darwin came and turned the world upside down. Man is descended from apes, he said. In all universities they teach this, the other animals. It means they accept that they are beasts. This crazy pastor named Darwin, the Pope excommunicated him seven times. If we catch him, we'll burn him, he said, so he disappeared. The one thing the Pope did right was this. Go arrest this crazy Darwin, he said, he is mad. Ungodly and godless, he goes on braying, so catch him, get even with him. Eh, this is innovation. In the name of innovation the devil spits on you, as we say. A packsaddle, Haji Mehmet, you know what a packsaddle is? Yes, you have ridden on a saddled donkey. Shaykh Effendi knows, he used to ride donkeys. I also rode on them. Show me people who have ridden donkeys. Now, I don't count as a man one who hasn't ridden on a donkey. Ride your donkey, achieve rank and station. Say, I have ridden my donkey. Our donkey is our nafs, it has to be trained. The man who cannot mount his own nafs, will be his nafs' slave. Who holds the reins of the nafs? I am asking the whole Islamic world, and the Christian world; who holds the reins of the nafs? Because you hold a donkey by its reins, or a halter. Who holds the reins of the nafs? This is an important question. It is shaytan who holds the reins of the nafs. It is shaytan. That is the reality. The nafs

http://www.sufismus-online.de/MiracleOfTheStick (6 von 22)04.07.2013 23:25:47

5891 Maulana Sheikh Nazim: MiracleOfTheStick

is the beast of shaytan. He pulls it along. What plunges mankind into all manner of filth, is the evil of this nafs. He who pulls the nafs to go wherever he wants it to go, shaytan, has ruined humankind. He has reduced human honour to nothing. Whereas man is the most honoured of all created beings. It does not befit mankind to be running after bones to chew on. Licking bones and running after straw is not worthy of man. O Shah-i Mardan, do come, you are Master of the Arena. Knowledge; Knowledge, knowledge is to know oneself. A course of study that does not teach knowledge of oneself, or that does not teach you to know who you are makes no sense. They have so many schools of higher learning. Is there anybody teaching knowledge of man's identity? No, there is not. Is anybody teaching the knowledge of who man really is? No, there is not. Shah-i Mardan is laden with wisdom. Take it from him. That is why they are making us speak his words every day, in order to remind man of his humanity in a variety of ways. A reminder; you do not listen to this advice. Alright. You do not heed this advice. Once a sultan, - this is an historical event - a sultan had a son, and in order to educate him, to
