Suhbah 2015: Maulana Shaykh Mehmet Adil ar-Rabbani (21/30)
https://www.nvrislam.net/index.php?j=eng&post=5433
Because people raised with faith - as long as there's no Islam and iman, a man is like a four-legged animal or even worse, because animals know Allah. And as people don't know Allah, an animal is higher than them.
We were created for Allah. Allah created us not to serve our egos, but to serve Him. We shouldn't forget it. As long as we don't forget, our life here and hereafter will be good. This is what our Creator says and made us know. He knows what is good and what is not good for us. Allah knows it. And He's telling its secret - He says "Don't turn away from Me". Even with weakest faith, make shukr (thanks) to Allah, start everything with Bismillah so that Allah remembers you.
But if you forget Allah, you won't advance in life, even if you have as much money and power as you want. May Allah give guidance to these people.
Allah Azza wa Jalla saying in ayat this: "wa man a'rada 'an dhikrī fa- inna lahu ma'īshatan dankan wa nahshuruhu yawma l-qiyamati a'man" (20:124) "qala rabbi lima hashartani a'ma waqad kuntu basīra" (20:125) qala kadhalika atatka ayatuna fanasītaha wa kadhalika l-yawma tunsa" (20:126)
Saying Allah in Quran, who - giving very good example, very good description for these people - He said, "who are not looking for Me, and he looking to another place, not seeing, not listening to what I am giving, I will make his life miserable. This whole his life, he cannot be happy. It will be bad life and when they come to Judgment Day I will make him blind, not seeing." And he asking, "O my Lord, I wasn't blind when I am in dunya". Allah answering, saying: "I show you everything in world, you didn't see, so now you will be blind. You will not be, see anything. Before I was giving you, you didn't see My favour, now I will give, you will be blind, and you will not see anything."
People now they are not accepting Allah, not accepting anything from religion. Only they are following their ego and they try to be happy, to try to be successful, and they thought when they be successful, or they be rich, or they will be power, they will be happy. No, Allah said, "You cannot be like this because you are not following what I put for to be happy. You are not following, so you will be miserable". And these people, nowadays people, they are coming very... not... they are not... before old people they have very good sense... kindness, sensitive. They are happy to be, see... you can, even you see old building their every corner, every part, they have one like art, they are doing, they was doing. But this maybe since 60, 50 year, only concrete. They are very tough, very, not polite, and only following their desire, only desire. They are like concrete now, these people. They don't have any sensitivity.
Even for, when they are doing something wrong, they don't feeling they are doing this. Old people they was knowing and they was saying some kind of saying to be this not for, we are not doing this good - We only, we're following shaitan. So they're knowing and they saying for themself. Like these people they're not knowing even when they are doing good thing, they are not knowing what they are doing. Not beginning from mentioning Name of Allah or wanting help from Allah. Only they are following desire and they are for show, making show for people and they thought it is good. Many people they are married and after few months they are finished. Why? Because they are only following desire and not beginning with the Name of Allah Only they are drinking alcohol, doing every bad thing and after they are looking for to be happy.
Allah He said, "You cannot be happy". You must be come back to Allah to help you. If no help from Allah, nothing will be good for you in this life." And this is His promise. Only who are following Allah, He help them. Other they are trying until they are dying and in Judgment Day they will be worse. Allah give these people good understanding because they are not understanding. They're thought they are more clever than old people, but old people, old, they are more, they have more adab, more respect for everything. As we said, even when they doing bad thing they not mentioning Allah, they're mentioning shaitan. Because they're knowing and it is, even this, weak belief. But also they are knowing they are doing bad thing.
So inshaAllah, Allah give these people good understanding and to come back to following even very weak belief, it's enough also for
them. Just if mentioning Name of Allah, Allah will be happy with them also. But if not mentioning and they are trying, saying "we are happy", they cannot be at all. Allah make us from the people who are with Allah, Who happy with them, inshaAllah.

140.HURRY TO DO GOOD THINGS Monday, August 3, 2015.
As-salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim. Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. As-salatu wa s-salamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi lawwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi Rasulillah, madad ya Mashaykhina, dastur, Shaykh Abdullah Daghistani, Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani, madad. Tariqatuna s-sohbah, wa l-khayru fi jam'iyyah.
"Ajjilu bis-salati qabla l-fawt, wa ajjilu bit-tawbati qabla l-mawt" they said. Hurry for doing good things. Hurry not to miss the time of prayer, pray on time. Do not ever forget to repent whenever you commit a sin or keep repenting constantly. Hurry to repent before death arrives. This means hurry to do all good deeds.
It is not good to hurry, but when it comes to good deeds don't delay. Don't say "I will do it tomorrow". Tomorrow is in the hands of Allah. Our lives are attached to a cotton thread, what happens, who stays, is not clear. So, hurry up. Hurry to repent. Hurry to pray. Hurry to do charity. Do not say "I'll do it later". Nobody does it later. You do your charity, do good. If they do it it is good, if not you find it ready there. But people do exactly the opposite. They hurry for all unnecessary things. For doing good, charity they are slow. They say they will go to Hajj when they get old. For praying, "we are still young, we have to grow up, we pray later on" they say.
This is what everybody is doing. Not only one person doing this, everybody is doing the same. They are lazy. But for bad things, they are running, racing to do them. They should do the opposite, because the benefit is for themselves. Allah does not need anyone. It is for your own benefit, whenever there is an opportunity, here, there, for good things do not delay, do it immediately.
Allah ordering and Prophet (sas) saying: You must be hurry to do good thing. Hurry to pray before time finish, and hurry to be repent, tawba, to repent before dying. Don't say "I will do this after, I will do that later". Don't, you don't know if tomorrow, you can survive for tomorrow. Human being, it is their life or their future like cotton thread, quickly broken. So don't be very sure you'll be tomorrow in this life. For this, when you find
something good to do, quickly do it, don't wait. The order of Allah is to pray, to go Hajj. Some people are saying for going to Hajj - "We are very young, so we can go when we are old". You have document you will survive until 60, 70 year old? If you don't have this, you will be responsible if you die before this. Because you have opportunity to do it and you didn't do.
Everything good, you must be hurry for this. To be hurry in life it is not good, you must be waiting. But for to do good thing, it is good to be hurried. But people they are hurryto do bad things and when coming to do good thing for their spiritual life, for next life, they are lazy. And advice, all Prophet advised to be hurry to do good thing and when you find something good, everywhere you must do, you must try to do it. This is for your benefit. Allah not in need for anybody but it is good for people.
If somebody thirsty, he can quickly drink water. And our spiritual life also, all time thirsty. So when you do good thing, to become better and better. This is advice. Everybody, we must remember to try to do it. It is short but it is important.
Wa min Allahi t-tawfiq, Al-Fatiha.
141.WHO CREATED LIFE AND DEATH DEATH (67:2) Tuesday, August 4, 2015.
Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim. Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. As-salatu wa ssalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi l-awwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi RasulAllah, madad ya Mashaykhina, dastur. Madad ya Sheikh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheikh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani. Tariqatuna s-sohbah, wa lkhayru fi jam'iyyah.
Death. Everyone will taste death. To every person who comes to this world surely death will come. All Prophets, pious people, messengers and whoever were sent, have certainly tasted death. Like this life, Allah created death as well. Allah created both life and death. They are creatures too. Everything is a creature of Allah. These werecreated for people here. Akhira is eternal. Neither people of paradise, nor people of hell have death.
Just like death makes all people surrender to it at an appointed time, on the Day of Judgment Allah Azza wa Jalla will bring death in the shape of a ram as a lesson for people on the bridge of Sirat. He will bring it as a ram and put it on the bridge of Sirat. He will call all the people of paradise and hell to look at it. The people of paradise will look and be scared of dying again. They entered it eternally, but they'll be very sad to die when they see death again. And the people of hell will be happy to see it, thinking they will die and will be saved. They will say "There is death. It will come and take us" and they rejoice. Allah Azza wa Jalla will order for death to be slaughtered there. Death will die and be gone. At that moment, the people of paradise will be so happy that if death existed, they would die out of happiness. And people of hell will be so sad that they could die of it, if death remained. But death will be removed then. It will be slaughtered. And for the people of paradise there will be eternal paradise, and eternal hell for the people of hell. This is what Allah has shown. It is the hadith sharif of our Prophet. He says there is no aging in paradise, no illness, no sorrow, no problems, no sadness. Nothing in paradise, except continuous happiness and eternal life with Allah's favours. And it's completely opposite for the people of hell. Therefore, if people don't obey their egos and they do what Allah says in this short life, they will be in eternal paradise. If they obey their egos and rebel against Allah ... There are many types of rebellion. One can
recognize Allah and rebel against Him. This kind will get his punishment in hell and leave. But those who deny Allah or make shirk, they will stay in hell eternally. Everyone should act accordingly. Allah has shown so much and has given minds to people, they should decide for themselves.
The death - everybody in this life, he will taste it. Nobody without death in this life. Even Prophets, even saints, even angels, jinns, all - everything, everybody will die. And it is a creature from Allah. He created this death. In Qur'an says "I created life and death" (67:2).
They are creatures. And you can't say "How it is creature?" It is creature. This death also creature. Life also creature from Allah's creatures. And they will bring this deathafter Judgment day, after everybody going, some of them to jannah, to paradise, some going to hell.
And they will bring death. Allah, He will make him like a ram, like big ram. They will bring him, the death as a big ram, and they will put him in the bridge sirat, this through going up of hell. And they will call everybody from paradise and from hell "Look to here, O all people. There is something." And everybody, they will look and they knowingdeath. So paradise people, they will be very afraid death coming again. But Allah, He told us we are forever in paradise. They will afraid "Maybe this death still there. Some time he will come and take us again." Hell people, they will be very happy. "If hell, if death coming for us, we will finish from this. And we will be free. No any more". So they are happy to see this death. This how it is terrible, this hell - They are wishing to die, but they cannot die. Allah make them to fall forever in hell.
But Allah calling this, He cutting this ram. They will cut ram death. And everybody, the paradise people, they will be so happy. And sometimes they saying, some people, they are dying from happiness. They can die from happiness if there is dying. And the hell people, they were if still that death still there, not cutting, they will be sad, die from sadness. Because no more death after this. Life forever for paradise people. He said, Allah "Live forever with no death any more." For hell people also, He will say "Live forever. No death for you also". So people, they must thinking about this. For this life, is it worth to be in this condition forever? Even if some little bit cutting or little bit burning in your hand or in anywhere in your body, you'll be very unhappy.
How it will be for you forever this? So you must be thinking about this.
And Allah give you good thinking, not following your ego. If you follow ego, you will be in this situation, very bad situation. But if you are following Allah, you will be happy forever. It is advice. And people, they must think about this. How? There is believer and unbeliever. It is no matter for Allah, if they are believer or not believer. No excuse for them. "We are not believing, we didn't know it was, there is hell, there was paradise." No, you know very well. But you are denying this in this life saying for these people "Crazy, idiot. We are the clever people." So it will be you are not clever, when you see this thing. Allah give everybody good thinking to survive from this bad end inshaAllah.
Wa min Allahi t-tawfiq, Al-Fatiha.
142.BE MERCIFUL WITH ANIMALS Wednesday, August 5, 2015.
As-salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim. Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. As-salatu wa s-salamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi lawwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi RasulAllah, madad ya Mashaikhina, dastur, Sheikh Abdullah Faiz Daghestani, Sheikh Muhammad Nazim alHaqqani, madad. Tariqatuna s-sohbah, wa l-khayru fi jam'iyyah.
Allah orders you to take care of the favours He gave you in trust. Treat well, with kindness, whatever you are responsible for. Try to offer good things as much as you can. There is a hadith of our Prophet - there is reward even in husking the grains a man gives to his horse. He is written a sawab for this. Sawab is written also for grooming it. Also how many animals there are unable to talk, looking after them well brings sawab to people. There is sin in hurting them because they are speechless. Our Prophet sometimes said that the speechless animal can be better than its owner because it knows Allah and makes tasbih. For the sake of Allah, because this animal makes dhikr to Allah and because it's given to you as a favour, you must treat it well and give it its food and drink. When you give its rights, Allah writes sawab for you and it brings blessings. The animal grows too.
This is not only for the animals we eat. Whatever you have in the household, cats or hens, it is good to look after them well. There is a hadith sharif - one lady was sent to hell. Why? She had a cat and she locked it somewhere. It died of hunger and thirst. If she had released it, it would have found something to eat or water to drink and would not have died. Because she locked it up, she was sent to hell. This is a hadith sharif. It's not acceptable to torture animals because they are speechless. It is a bigger sin. You must be merciful to every creature, for the sake of Allah.
A person, a Muslim is merciful and compassionate. Even when slaughtering, it is done slowly in a specified way, not by pushing and pulling it. Otherwise the curse of theanimal can touch the man. It's not good. At least the animal can... Some people say now, people who claim to know much, it is a torture for an animal, that's why they give it an electric shock or hit it on the head so that it doesn't feel pain. In fact,
they are idiots and they are torturing them. An animal goes through a big torture then. It is tortured when its marrow is cut. They shouldn't think they are saved. Those who do it by knowing, what they do will be asked on the Day of Judgment. Everything is written. Their bad treatment, their torture of the animal will certainly be asked about.
Always be merciful. Be merciful so that Allah is merciful to you. "Irhamu man fi l-ard yarhamukum man fi s- sama'i". Be merciful towards those on earth so that Allah looks at you with mercy and doesn't send you punishment, or so that you're not asked about it in akhira and are punished. Beware of paying its penalty in akhira.
Allah Azza wa Jalla ordering for to be good for everything in this earth. Everything it is, you are responsible for it, you must be merciful and you must look after them. Especially, if you have animal who are, they cannot speak - not understanding, not listening, not speaking this. So don't think it is they don't have anybody to look after them. Allah, He is looking, what are you doing. Human being for this non-speaking and they are just under your mercy. You must be merciful for this also and Allah reward you. Even when you feed your horse or you feed another, Allah rewards you for what are you doing. Especially if you have horse, because horse it was, old time, very important for army. Who looking after horse, everything he do for horse, Allah reward him. And for another animal also.
And many time, Prophet (sas) saying: "Maybe this who are rider, who riding him, he is better than rider". It is hadith also. Because this animal, whole animals, they are knowing their Creator, their Lord and they are praising Him. They are mentioning His Name by their way. Everything, "wa in min shay-in illa yusabbihu bihamdihi" (17:44) Everything making tasbih, mentioning Name of Allah, everything in this world. So, maybe, many of them better than human being. This is what Prophet (sas). Because, even they don't have mind but they knowing Who create them. And to look after them, it is reward. Everything you do for them it is giving you benefit. Don't think it is nothing. Everything recording. Everything, they will be seen in Judgment Day.
There is hadith one woman, she become from hell people. Why, because she left her cat in room and she didn't feed them and not
giving water for them, they die in room. If they was let them outside, they can find something to eat, they have many thing to eat. But she left them there and they died. She will go to hell. This is hadith also. So you must be merciful for all the creatures.
And when, even when slaughtering, don't push them, don't make them, beat them. By gentle you slaughter them. Now, the people who are thinking they are clever, they said it is not good to slaughter them like this. First we must give them electricity. Next time, we must shoot them in head to make them not feel any pain. And these crazy people, they're not knowing what's death, what's that minute Allah, He know and He Ordered to cut like this because He is Merciful, and the best thing for this. For other thing is giving them more pain, more suffering. and who are doing this, they are responsible. They will be charged for this in Judgment Day. Because on that Day, everything they will speak, even animal, even stone. Everything, they will say to be witness for what human being done. So, who are doing this with knowing, he will be punished and he will be regret because what he done.
Allah Azza wa Jalla He is saying:"Be merciful for whole creatures in earth to be, Allah, Merciful for you. Allah make us. Alhamdulillah, Muslim people, especially Ahl as-Sunna wa al-jama'a, they have mercy. Who don't have mercy in his heart, he must be control, he is wrong way. But who are, have mercy, he is, alhamdulillah in right way. Allah make all time mercy in our heart inshaAllah.
Wa min Allahi t-tawfiq, Al Fatiha.
143.MERCIFUL BETWEEN EACH OTHER (48:29) Thursday August 6, 2015.
As-salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim. Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. As-salatu wa s-salamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi lawwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi RasulAllah, madad ya Mashaykhina, dastur. Madad ya Sheikh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheikh Muhammad Nazim alHaqqani, dastur, madad. Tariqatuna s-sohbah, wa l-khayru fi jam'iyyah.
Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r- rajim.Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. "Muhammadu walladhina ma'ahu ashidda-u 'ala l-kufar wa ruhama-u baynahum" (48:29) That ayah. Prophet (saw) and believers, they are merciful between each other.
They are... They are helping each other. And they are respecting and they are obeying Allah. And when they are together, not arguing, not fighting between each other. Even there sometimes difference between some of them, they're saying their opinion, and after they are "Ok, we are following you, what you said" they said.
This is teaching of Prophet. Because to arguing, it is not good. From Mawlana also saying, if somebody want to argue, don't argue. Just keep quiet or you leave this there if you cannot carry [it]. But if you're arguing, it will be not good feeling. And there will be hatred between you and the other your brothers, Muslim brothers. Because when Muslim brothers coming and greeting each other, Prophet (saw) shaking hand, their bad things [that] Allah take them away from them, give them reward then. And it is sunnah to shake your hand, to make greeting, to make salam, give salam "As-salamu alaikum, O my brother" and other also answering. To give salam, it is sunnah. To take, it is obligatory fard, wajib.
The good people must be following order of Allah. Because if any difference between people, it is going to make them fight and to forget the real enemy, shaitan and [its] followers, and [cause] fighting between believers. And it is what happened for after Prophet (saw).
Non-believer all time making fitna. And there was success to make many Muslim, many believers to lose their what they have from land, from country, from... Everything they lose. But it is... Until now they are not learning anything. Still continue like this. If you have problem,
ok. You must not arguing, just listening and say your opinion. After - if they accept, ok. Not accept, don't argue, you leave them, be, not to make bigger fitna.
This is advice for these days people also. Now fitna time. Be quiet and don't be in front. Mawlana saying [you] keep in your house or you keep in where place nobody can reach you. Don't go outside also and shouting and making noise. After coming to you what from this fitna, after don't complain.
In this holy verse it is said that our Holy Prophet and those who are with the Holy Prophet are merciful amongst themselves while they are severe against their enemies. Even if they should disagree with each other, as would often happen. For instance, Umar would say one thing, and Abu Bakr would say another thing; sometimes they would accept what one said, sometimes what the other said. But they did not start a fight about it. They would say what they knew and what they had to say, expressing their thoughts. For it is not good to look only at one aspect of a matter, one needs to regard it from all sides. Not for the sake of arguing, but for the benefit of Islam, for the benefit of the believers, to consider a point of view, but not to fight or argue. Because the thing then grows and gets out of hand, and our nafs, from its own interests or from pride, our nafs does not want to submit.
So it is necessary to accept. Even if you don't agree, hold your tongue, and say - Allah knows best. As they say: "Allahu a’lam bi-thawab". Allah knows what good is in it. In this way you carry on. This sort of thing occurred from the beginning, from the very outset of Islam. But of course at the time of the Companions, who possessed wisdom and knowledge and good manners, they would say what they had to say, but this would not be followed by arguments and fights. That kind of thing only began after their time. From then on Muslims have been fighting among themselves, and behaving more mercifully towards outsiders. Whereas Muslims are supposed to be merciful towardseach other. But they do exactly the opposite.
Many states have come and gone, destroyed, many Islamic states. In this way they lost the lands conquered by Islam, most of them, or more than half, by following their nafs, by favouring their nafs. But one ought not to show favour to one's nafs. The nafs follows shaytan. By favouring it, you are favouring the devil. When a Muslim meets another Muslim, and they embrace, says our Holy Prophet, their sins fall off them just as the autumn leaves fall off the trees. The more
Muslims are kind towards each other, the more our Holy Prophet will be pleased with them, and Allah loves that servant. He says, be kind and merciful towards each other, love one another.
May Allah make us not to submit to our nafs. May mankind and Muslims among themselves try not to see each other's faults and shortcomings. Try to make excuses foreach other. Say: this one is ill, this one may be a bit elderly. Try not to take offence at the slightest prompting. May Allah grant us to live in the way we have described, with love for one another, and favouring each other, insha'Allah.
Wa min Allahi t-tawfiq, Al-Fatiha.
144.I HAVE COMPLETED MY FAVOUR(5:3) Friday, August 7, 2015.
As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim. Bismilllahi r-Rahmanir r-Rahim. As-salatu wa s-salamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi lawwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi Rasulillah, madad ya mashaykhina, dastur. Madad ya Shaykh Abdullah Daghistani, Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani, madad. Tariqatuna s-sohbah, wa l-khayru fi jam'iyyah.
Allah, may His Glory be exalted, has sent down to each of His prophets, well, of course not to all of them, there were 124,000 prophets, and to 313 of these prophets Allah revealed heavenly scriptures. One of these was of course the Prophet Musa, alayhi s- salam. The Torah was revealed to the Prophet Musa, alayhi s-salam. The Torah is a big book. It has many more pages than the Holy Qur'an. But the Qur'an is the perfect scripture. All the unbelievers kept saying to our Holy Prophet: Why does it come down little by little, Allah, exalted be He, should send it all at once! In this way they would chatter. Musa, alayhi s-salam, his people were the Bani Isra'il. To them Allah sent down the Torah as it is - it was not sent bit by bit. This great book was sent down by Allah, exalted be He, to Musa, alayhi s-salam. In it are contained all rules, instructions for worship, commands and prohibitions. The entire foundation of the religion is found in that book. The religion which Musa, alayhi s-salam, brought was the divinely revealed religion for the time of Musa, alayhi s-salam. It was revealed all at once. Because of that, people had difficulty with it. Most of them could not follow it. After the time of Musa, alayhi s-salam, they began to change things, they changed a lot. By now, in our day it contains not half, not even a quarter, perhaps 5% at most of the original true book of the Torah. But Allah Almighty, as a mercy for the nation of the Prophet, and to show the way for future generations, sent down slowly slowly. In the beginning, what did Islam consist of? When our Holy Prophet first conveyed his message as a prophet, he was instructed to teach people to say: La ilaha illAllah, Muhammadun Rasulullah. The religion was
that much. No prayer, fasting, alms-giving or any such thing. Only after this, very gradually, commands began to be revealed. The command for prayer came. Some years later was ordered for five times a day. There was no fasting yet, the only fast was the fast of Ashura [the tenth of Muharram]. There was no fast of Ramadan yet. This only was made obligatory after the hijra, the migration from Mecca to Medina. The obligatory fasting was ordered at that time. It was the same with the pilgrimage, the Hajj. It became obligatory only after the hijra. It became obligatory about 15 to 20 years after the revelation of his prophethood. There was as yet no zakat. Zakat was being given when they were fasting as the zakat of fasting. The command for zakat also came later. In this way all commands came gradually. When they were completed, our Holy Prophet gave a khutba on the day of Arafat during the pilgrimage, which was Hajj ul- Akbar, and the last Hajj he was to make, Hajj ul-Wada', the Hajj of farewell, everybody knows it. At that time he gave a great khutba, instructing the Muslims on everything they had to do and were forbidden to do. Then he recited the verse: al-yawma akmaltu lakum dinakum wa atmamtu alaykum ni’mati wa raditu lakum al-Islama dinan (5:3) This verse translates as: This day I have perfected your religion for you, and completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion. I am pleased with that religion be you also pleased with it. Some people, and most of the companions understood that the task of our Holy Prophet had come to an end, that from now on he would no longer be among the people. Some were happy that the religion was now complete, but most people understood, were sorrowful, very sad. The important thing is that it took our Holy Prophet 23 years to complete the religion. It did not happen in one day. Therefore there is ease in this religion, not hardship. A person should enter into the religion and not remain without, even if he only says: La ilaha illAllah. The rest will come later, by Allah's Grace. But he should not be proud and not follow people's whims or follow after shaytan, thinking I am this, I am that. We are nothing, all of us are weak servants. Even the greatest of men in the end will surrender his soul and be gone.
The Noble Companions of the Prophet did not forsake the religion because the Holy Prophet had gone. Some who were not among the companions, tribesmen of other tribes, at once began to rebel, saying - "We are not paying zakat." Some abandoned the religion so as not to pay zakat. But our Holy Prophet left behind him his khalifas, who preserved his way and kept to it. They spread light across the whole world. Some of those who had left the way returned to it, they repented and again attained high rank and stations. One of these was the first of the companions to come to Cyprus. He had left the path because of this problem, but afterwards he repented and returned to Islam and came as commander to Cyprus together with Hala Sultan and they conquered here. But there were some who went to war, saying - "We are what we are," and they did not accept. They perished, as well as those who were with them. But the religion of Islam persisted, thanks to Allah. Allah, exalted be He, is not in need of anyone's gratitude. If one says, "I loved the Prophet, but you I don't want," he then is also a renegade. He will be punished. But those who followed, wherever they went they were called "Sultan". All the companions wherever they went. They would say "Hala Sultan" and "Eyyub Sultan". Wherever the sahaba went, they were called "Sultan". But those others are mentioned with a curse, besides, the names of most are forgotten. One or the other is known by name, like Pharaoh, but only curses are showered upon them, nothing else. The important thing is to continue on the way our Holy Prophet showed us. The companions showed us this path, those who were close to the Holy Prophet. By following them man is not diminished. On the contrary, he will be elevated. May Allah make this road continue, may it be lasting. It will be lasting until the Day of Resurrection, insha'Allah. Today we are speaking about Musa (as) He is a messenger of Allah. There is prophet, he is prophet and messenger. Prophet - 124,000, 124,000 prophets. 313 they are messengers. They have book from Allah Allah 'Azza wa Jalla Some of them, they have five pages, some of ten pages, some 100, like Qur'an 600 pages. Torah, who was coming to Musa (as) it was big, very big. And it is, it was coming for Musa (as) once. All this what they write what they must do, what they must
worship, what they must eat, not eat, what is prohibited, what is inherited. Everything because it is religion, completely religion in this book - Torah - holy book because [it's] from Allah. Allah Azza wa Jalla He sent it [at] once. But Qur'an coming in 23 years, slowly slowly. Some of these unbeliever people they was saying, making like it is not good for why it not coming, once for him and it is coming slowly slowly like this? Because mercy of Allah, it was coming like this and to teach people until Qiyama how to behave. Because this book, holy book for Musa (as). It come once and these people, it was very heavy for them. Once they didn't know anything and they quickly they must learn, they must obey, they must follow this. And Allah Azza wa Jalla He create them by His wisdom. They was clever people but even for them, it was heavy. They couldn't do what Allah ordered, what write in this book and, because they were clever, they make a trick. They cut, cut, cut, until now, maybe only five percent left from Torah, [the] real Torah. So other only they change by their opinion. But for Qur'an, Allah He said inna nahnu nazzalna l-dhik'ra wa-inna lahu lahafidhun (15:9) He said. We sent this holy book, Qur'an and we are keeping from any different, changing. Until Qiyama it will be. Before Qiyama it will be, in short time before Qiyama until short time of Qiyama, it will be preserved. It will be until that time; nothing. But in the, for Qiyama signs in Qur'an it will be completely erased. You cannot find in Qur'an when if you see, at that time all it will be erased. And if anybody know by heart he will be not there. Finished. Until that time, no changing at all. And it was coming part by part for Prophet (saws). First of all Islam it was when Prophet (saws) Allah sending as a prophet and when he was in 40 year age to be Islam. Only saying La ilaha ill Allah Muhammad Rasulullah. Nothing else. No praying, no fasting, no zakat, no anything. Only this it was ordered. After this, slowly coming, praying. But not five time a day, just praying as they want. After many years, become five time day praying. After this coming fasting. But they fasting not in Ramadan, (but) in Muharram, 'Ashura. That times. After this, coming to, after coming to Medina, in Ramadan fasting. After coming zakat. After coming Hajj.
Like this, slowly slowly it was coming. and between these teaching ablution washing from to be clean. Everything it was slowly slowly. Even they was drinking [wine]. When it was forbidden, they crashed all this or throwing in street it was like river. It was like this, slowly slowly coming. [After] 23 years complete. And it was complete in Hajj time - the last Hajj for Prophet (saws) and it's name 'Hajjat ul-wada'. It is meaning Hajj of leaving. And he was saying, "al yawm akmaltu lakum dinakum wa-atmamtu alaykum ni'mati wa raditu lakumu lislama dina"(5:3) This day I have perfected for you your religion and I have completed upon you My favour and I have approved for you Islam a religion. (5:3) This ayat he was saying in Arafat, the day before Hajj in Arafat and it was Friday. And he was saying long khutba. So, many of companions, sahaba of Prophet (saws) was crying because they know he will leave them. Some of them, they not know. One of Bani Israil there was saying when he hear this - "You must make this day Eid, Feast." And Hazrat Omar ibn Khattab said, 'Of course it was Eid. It was Prophet was there and it was Arafat, it was in Arafat. So, it is Eid for us also this day." So, it is coming like this. And after many, few months, Prophet (saws) he was going to akhira and companions they are following him, following what he has ordered because he make everything right and he left for them this. And they are continuing with what he ordered, what his command and they was real companions, not leaving Prophet (saws). They was with him and other who are, they have weak 'irada' - willpower, weak willpower. There was some of them, for money, because they don't want to give zakat, they come out of Islam. Some of them, they was really not happy with Islam, they also ... So they was fighting with them and many of them, they came back. Even, some of them who was out of Islam come again. He regretted, repented and even one of them who was like this, he become commander, and he come to with Hala Sultan to conquer Cyprus also. But he was real repentant. Other[s] they was only for them and for their ego. They was fighting and they try to be another prophet. They was not succeed and people who follow them they was destroy their people and there, nobody know about them. Very few of them, like Firawn, like Nimrod,
their name by people known. But many of them, they are not knowing anybody for [from] them. Allah He is not in need for them and He is with Prophet (saws) and his companions. They conquered all these countries of Islam and they spread the light of Islam there. Very, who these few people who are doing these wrong things, it was bad for them and not good for their people. You must be with right. You must be with Allah. Prophet (saws) he is even he went to akhira but he is alive. He is hearing and hears when you say salawat he is coming and taking salawat and he is happy with you. Don't think awliyaAllah, or loved, beloved Allah's beloved servants, they are happy with who they are leaving and running away. No, they are just following their ego. But even this, we will say. Slowly slowly Allah gives the real Muslim good understanding and to not run away from Islam. Islam it is the biggest favour. Prophet (saws) wa-atmamtu 'alaykum ni'mati (5:3) - I complete this favour for this Prophet (saws) saying. So it is big favour. Don't run away from favour. Run away from bad, from evil, from your ego run away. Don't run away from favour. Allah make this favour all time on us InshaAllah Wa min Allah it-tawfiq, Al Fatiha
145.THE WRESTLER’S LAST TRICK Saturday, August 8, 2015.
Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim. Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. As-salatu wa ssalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi l-awwalina wa l-akhirin. Meded ya RasulAllah, meded ya Sadati Ashabi Rasulillah, meded ya Mashayikhina, destur, meded ya Shaykh Abdullah d-Daghistani, meded ya Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani, meded. Tariqatuna as-sohbah, wa l-khayru fi jam'iyyah.
To make peace between Muslims, says our Holy Prophet, is the best thing we can do, to make things better between Muslims, to show the right way. When there were two groups who were angry at each other, our Holy Prophet would try to reconcile them. He would go and say to them, "Let's make up." Once a fight broke out in Medina, in Quba, where the masjid of Quba is. He said, "Let's go there and make peace between them." Also, when making peace between Muslims it is permissible to lie. It is permitted in this case, and when reconciling a man with his wife. And of course also in case of war. Warfare is deception, for if you openly say to your enemy: I am going to do this, he will take advantage of the occasion and defeat you. That is why in some cases, in some situations, it is allowed to do certain things. For everything there is a method, a basic rule. Islam, our Holy Prophet showed the very best way, because there is no trust, safety. As a Qur'an verse says: Wa la tu'minu illa li-man tabi’a dinakum"(3:73) Do not trust anyone who is not of your own religion. That is, in the case he is a true Muslim. Otherwise, at other times, if that person has dealings with bad people, of course you must not place much trust in him. Our Holy Prophet means to say that you should be moderate; if you love someone, do not love him overly much, he says. A day might come when he will be your enemy. He will know all your secrets, and he will defeat you, and do you harm. Maybe you have an enemy, but don't hate him too much, do not act too badly towards him, for it could be that he will become your friend. Such is the way of the world.
Things change in this world. Nothing remains the same. Therefore, in order to feel safe and secure, do not go to the extreme with anything. Keep something for yourself that will help you out. In former times, before guns, firearms were invented, people had wrestlers, it was the main time of wrestling. They would challenge each other to wrestle. They were experts in these matters. Once there was a man, who was a great wrestler master, no one could defeat him. By his side he had a trainee, a new wrestler in training is called a trainee. There was no one who could defeat this wrestler. He was much loved by the Sultan. Wrestling is not all as it seems to be. It is not all about grabbing and pushing and pulling, there are secrets to it, and there is a method of how to bring your opponent down, how to bring him to the ground and defeat him. There are principles, there are certain tricks. This trainee had already been taught 999 of these tricks by his master. But one he had not yet taught him. The trainee insisted that he teach him everything, but the master just passed over it. In the end the trainee became a very strong wrestler indeed. Nobody could resist him. The Sultan was delighted with him, he was his favourite, being such a powerful wrestler in those days people valued such qualities, such wrestlers as he were highly prized. This wrestler in the Sultan's presence followed his nafs to say: "Nobody can overcome me!" Even though his master was there with him. The Sultan resented that remark, but said nothing to him. So there he challenged his master. All right, said the Sultan, if you should win, you will still give all your titles to the master, for all he taught you. Ok, he said. Really, nobody could resist him, he was such a strong, powerful wrestler. His master entered the ring. The master knew that his student was stronger than he, but he was also very clever. He had experience, and experience is important. Because of his experience, without giving him a chance, he applied the one trick he had not taught him and brought him down to the ground. He knocked him out. The trainee sprawled on the ground. "O master," he said, "that one you did not teach me." "I did not teach it to you because of this time now." Nothing human can be entirely trusted. Do not tell everything. Do not tell everybody everything. For when more than two people know a secret, it no longer is a secret. Actually, if more than one person knows
about it, it no longer is a secret. Some people just cannot keep a secret. But at times it is necessary. Some people are trusting and say it, but it is not good to say it to another. This is an important point. Get along well with people, but don't go to extremes. Do not go too far in hating people, but also do not tell everything you know to the one you love, there is no need. For sometimes, most of the time really, things are bound to change. May Allah make us to be good people, may He make us to be trustworthy, insha'Allah. Prophet (saws) he was the most best thing he said to do to make people to not be fighting, to make them peace between people, between neighbours, between these friends. When they are fighting you must make them to come together again. Prophet he said this is the biggest good thing to do and he was doing this. He was even encouraging sahaba. Once they were fighting in between people in Medina near Quba. He said 'Let's go there to make peace between them'. And even in this many, very few place you can say a lie for [to] make peace between people. You can say 'This man he love you' but he not love you, OK. But you can say this. And between wife and husband also you can say lie to make them to come together again. And in war you must not tell truth, because your enemy is waiting something to know what you are doing to attack on you. When he say this is in his front, everything clear he can do and he will win on you. So don't make this enemy to come on you and to be, you must be awake. Don't trust or don't go for extreme. Don't go extreme. Prophet (saws) say - If you love somebody, don't love extreme love. Maybe sometimes he can [be]come enemy for you and he will know all your secrets and he will harm you. And if you hate somebody, don't hate him extreme. Allah changing sometimes - this man, he become your best friend and you will be shy for what you said to him or what you done for him. So don't be very extreme. Be careful. Every time there was old time, before gun and powder, gunpowder it exist. There was people, strong people, they was fighting with hands and especially they have wrestlers. They are acceptable people these
people. They have good manners and they are good people. Their a Sultan and if they was like them they was very close for them. One of these very strong wrestlers he know a thousand tricks. Because wrestling, not only strong, strength, it need also, some trick to make your fighter who [is] against you, to make him [go] down. Not only with this strength you must be thinking also. And there was these people teaching people around them also. Between these what he was teaching them, there was one young man, He was very strong and he have ability, and he was happy with him. And he was teaching him all these tricks and he was learning quickly and he was very strong. He teach him 999 tricks. Only one, he didn't teach him. He, all time asking - O! Master! Teach me this! Teach me this! He was say 'yes yes, oh, oh'. He was just making - not teaching him. Once, when he become, the other one, famous and nobody can stop in front of him and he become proud. Once in Sultan's table he said 'nobody can stop on front of me'. Sultan was not happy with this. And this, his master also he was there. He said 'How you say this for your M

Because people raised with faith - as long as there's no Islam and iman, a man is like a four-legged animal or even worse, because animals know Allah. And as people don't know Allah, an animal is higher than them.
We were created for Allah. Allah created us not to serve our egos, but to serve Him. We shouldn't forget it. As long as we don't forget, our life here and hereafter will be good. This is what our Creator says and made us know. He knows what is good and what is not good for us. Allah knows it. And He's telling its secret - He says "Don't turn away from Me". Even with weakest faith, make shukr (thanks) to Allah, start everything with Bismillah so that Allah remembers you.
But if you forget Allah, you won't advance in life, even if you have as much money and power as you want. May Allah give guidance to these people.
Allah Azza wa Jalla saying in ayat this: "wa man a'rada 'an dhikrī fa- inna lahu ma'īshatan dankan wa nahshuruhu yawma l-qiyamati a'man" (20:124) "qala rabbi lima hashartani a'ma waqad kuntu basīra" (20:125) qala kadhalika atatka ayatuna fanasītaha wa kadhalika l-yawma tunsa" (20:126)
Saying Allah in Quran, who - giving very good example, very good description for these people - He said, "who are not looking for Me, and he looking to another place, not seeing, not listening to what I am giving, I will make his life miserable. This whole his life, he cannot be happy. It will be bad life and when they come to Judgment Day I will make him blind, not seeing." And he asking, "O my Lord, I wasn't blind when I am in dunya". Allah answering, saying: "I show you everything in world, you didn't see, so now you will be blind. You will not be, see anything. Before I was giving you, you didn't see My favour, now I will give, you will be blind, and you will not see anything."
People now they are not accepting Allah, not accepting anything from religion. Only they are following their ego and they try to be happy, to try to be successful, and they thought when they be successful, or they be rich, or they will be power, they will be happy. No, Allah said, "You cannot be like this because you are not following what I put for to be happy. You are not following, so you will be miserable". And these people, nowadays people, they are coming very... not... they are not... before old people they have very good sense... kindness, sensitive. They are happy to be, see... you can, even you see old building their every corner, every part, they have one like art, they are doing, they was doing. But this maybe since 60, 50 year, only concrete. They are very tough, very, not polite, and only following their desire, only desire. They are like concrete now, these people. They don't have any sensitivity.
Even for, when they are doing something wrong, they don't feeling they are doing this. Old people they was knowing and they was saying some kind of saying to be this not for, we are not doing this good - We only, we're following shaitan. So they're knowing and they saying for themself. Like these people they're not knowing even when they are doing good thing, they are not knowing what they are doing. Not beginning from mentioning Name of Allah or wanting help from Allah. Only they are following desire and they are for show, making show for people and they thought it is good. Many people they are married and after few months they are finished. Why? Because they are only following desire and not beginning with the Name of Allah Only they are drinking alcohol, doing every bad thing and after they are looking for to be happy.
Allah He said, "You cannot be happy". You must be come back to Allah to help you. If no help from Allah, nothing will be good for you in this life." And this is His promise. Only who are following Allah, He help them. Other they are trying until they are dying and in Judgment Day they will be worse. Allah give these people good understanding because they are not understanding. They're thought they are more clever than old people, but old people, old, they are more, they have more adab, more respect for everything. As we said, even when they doing bad thing they not mentioning Allah, they're mentioning shaitan. Because they're knowing and it is, even this, weak belief. But also they are knowing they are doing bad thing.
So inshaAllah, Allah give these people good understanding and to come back to following even very weak belief, it's enough also for
them. Just if mentioning Name of Allah, Allah will be happy with them also. But if not mentioning and they are trying, saying "we are happy", they cannot be at all. Allah make us from the people who are with Allah, Who happy with them, inshaAllah.

140.HURRY TO DO GOOD THINGS Monday, August 3, 2015.
As-salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim. Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. As-salatu wa s-salamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi lawwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi Rasulillah, madad ya Mashaykhina, dastur, Shaykh Abdullah Daghistani, Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani, madad. Tariqatuna s-sohbah, wa l-khayru fi jam'iyyah.
"Ajjilu bis-salati qabla l-fawt, wa ajjilu bit-tawbati qabla l-mawt" they said. Hurry for doing good things. Hurry not to miss the time of prayer, pray on time. Do not ever forget to repent whenever you commit a sin or keep repenting constantly. Hurry to repent before death arrives. This means hurry to do all good deeds.
It is not good to hurry, but when it comes to good deeds don't delay. Don't say "I will do it tomorrow". Tomorrow is in the hands of Allah. Our lives are attached to a cotton thread, what happens, who stays, is not clear. So, hurry up. Hurry to repent. Hurry to pray. Hurry to do charity. Do not say "I'll do it later". Nobody does it later. You do your charity, do good. If they do it it is good, if not you find it ready there. But people do exactly the opposite. They hurry for all unnecessary things. For doing good, charity they are slow. They say they will go to Hajj when they get old. For praying, "we are still young, we have to grow up, we pray later on" they say.
This is what everybody is doing. Not only one person doing this, everybody is doing the same. They are lazy. But for bad things, they are running, racing to do them. They should do the opposite, because the benefit is for themselves. Allah does not need anyone. It is for your own benefit, whenever there is an opportunity, here, there, for good things do not delay, do it immediately.
Allah ordering and Prophet (sas) saying: You must be hurry to do good thing. Hurry to pray before time finish, and hurry to be repent, tawba, to repent before dying. Don't say "I will do this after, I will do that later". Don't, you don't know if tomorrow, you can survive for tomorrow. Human being, it is their life or their future like cotton thread, quickly broken. So don't be very sure you'll be tomorrow in this life. For this, when you find
something good to do, quickly do it, don't wait. The order of Allah is to pray, to go Hajj. Some people are saying for going to Hajj - "We are very young, so we can go when we are old". You have document you will survive until 60, 70 year old? If you don't have this, you will be responsible if you die before this. Because you have opportunity to do it and you didn't do.
Everything good, you must be hurry for this. To be hurry in life it is not good, you must be waiting. But for to do good thing, it is good to be hurried. But people they are hurryto do bad things and when coming to do good thing for their spiritual life, for next life, they are lazy. And advice, all Prophet advised to be hurry to do good thing and when you find something good, everywhere you must do, you must try to do it. This is for your benefit. Allah not in need for anybody but it is good for people.
If somebody thirsty, he can quickly drink water. And our spiritual life also, all time thirsty. So when you do good thing, to become better and better. This is advice. Everybody, we must remember to try to do it. It is short but it is important.
Wa min Allahi t-tawfiq, Al-Fatiha.
141.WHO CREATED LIFE AND DEATH DEATH (67:2) Tuesday, August 4, 2015.
Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim. Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. As-salatu wa ssalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi l-awwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi RasulAllah, madad ya Mashaykhina, dastur. Madad ya Sheikh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheikh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani. Tariqatuna s-sohbah, wa lkhayru fi jam'iyyah.
Death. Everyone will taste death. To every person who comes to this world surely death will come. All Prophets, pious people, messengers and whoever were sent, have certainly tasted death. Like this life, Allah created death as well. Allah created both life and death. They are creatures too. Everything is a creature of Allah. These werecreated for people here. Akhira is eternal. Neither people of paradise, nor people of hell have death.
Just like death makes all people surrender to it at an appointed time, on the Day of Judgment Allah Azza wa Jalla will bring death in the shape of a ram as a lesson for people on the bridge of Sirat. He will bring it as a ram and put it on the bridge of Sirat. He will call all the people of paradise and hell to look at it. The people of paradise will look and be scared of dying again. They entered it eternally, but they'll be very sad to die when they see death again. And the people of hell will be happy to see it, thinking they will die and will be saved. They will say "There is death. It will come and take us" and they rejoice. Allah Azza wa Jalla will order for death to be slaughtered there. Death will die and be gone. At that moment, the people of paradise will be so happy that if death existed, they would die out of happiness. And people of hell will be so sad that they could die of it, if death remained. But death will be removed then. It will be slaughtered. And for the people of paradise there will be eternal paradise, and eternal hell for the people of hell. This is what Allah has shown. It is the hadith sharif of our Prophet. He says there is no aging in paradise, no illness, no sorrow, no problems, no sadness. Nothing in paradise, except continuous happiness and eternal life with Allah's favours. And it's completely opposite for the people of hell. Therefore, if people don't obey their egos and they do what Allah says in this short life, they will be in eternal paradise. If they obey their egos and rebel against Allah ... There are many types of rebellion. One can
recognize Allah and rebel against Him. This kind will get his punishment in hell and leave. But those who deny Allah or make shirk, they will stay in hell eternally. Everyone should act accordingly. Allah has shown so much and has given minds to people, they should decide for themselves.
The death - everybody in this life, he will taste it. Nobody without death in this life. Even Prophets, even saints, even angels, jinns, all - everything, everybody will die. And it is a creature from Allah. He created this death. In Qur'an says "I created life and death" (67:2).
They are creatures. And you can't say "How it is creature?" It is creature. This death also creature. Life also creature from Allah's creatures. And they will bring this deathafter Judgment day, after everybody going, some of them to jannah, to paradise, some going to hell.
And they will bring death. Allah, He will make him like a ram, like big ram. They will bring him, the death as a big ram, and they will put him in the bridge sirat, this through going up of hell. And they will call everybody from paradise and from hell "Look to here, O all people. There is something." And everybody, they will look and they knowingdeath. So paradise people, they will be very afraid death coming again. But Allah, He told us we are forever in paradise. They will afraid "Maybe this death still there. Some time he will come and take us again." Hell people, they will be very happy. "If hell, if death coming for us, we will finish from this. And we will be free. No any more". So they are happy to see this death. This how it is terrible, this hell - They are wishing to die, but they cannot die. Allah make them to fall forever in hell.
But Allah calling this, He cutting this ram. They will cut ram death. And everybody, the paradise people, they will be so happy. And sometimes they saying, some people, they are dying from happiness. They can die from happiness if there is dying. And the hell people, they were if still that death still there, not cutting, they will be sad, die from sadness. Because no more death after this. Life forever for paradise people. He said, Allah "Live forever with no death any more." For hell people also, He will say "Live forever. No death for you also". So people, they must thinking about this. For this life, is it worth to be in this condition forever? Even if some little bit cutting or little bit burning in your hand or in anywhere in your body, you'll be very unhappy.
How it will be for you forever this? So you must be thinking about this.
And Allah give you good thinking, not following your ego. If you follow ego, you will be in this situation, very bad situation. But if you are following Allah, you will be happy forever. It is advice. And people, they must think about this. How? There is believer and unbeliever. It is no matter for Allah, if they are believer or not believer. No excuse for them. "We are not believing, we didn't know it was, there is hell, there was paradise." No, you know very well. But you are denying this in this life saying for these people "Crazy, idiot. We are the clever people." So it will be you are not clever, when you see this thing. Allah give everybody good thinking to survive from this bad end inshaAllah.
Wa min Allahi t-tawfiq, Al-Fatiha.
142.BE MERCIFUL WITH ANIMALS Wednesday, August 5, 2015.
As-salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim. Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. As-salatu wa s-salamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi lawwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi RasulAllah, madad ya Mashaikhina, dastur, Sheikh Abdullah Faiz Daghestani, Sheikh Muhammad Nazim alHaqqani, madad. Tariqatuna s-sohbah, wa l-khayru fi jam'iyyah.
Allah orders you to take care of the favours He gave you in trust. Treat well, with kindness, whatever you are responsible for. Try to offer good things as much as you can. There is a hadith of our Prophet - there is reward even in husking the grains a man gives to his horse. He is written a sawab for this. Sawab is written also for grooming it. Also how many animals there are unable to talk, looking after them well brings sawab to people. There is sin in hurting them because they are speechless. Our Prophet sometimes said that the speechless animal can be better than its owner because it knows Allah and makes tasbih. For the sake of Allah, because this animal makes dhikr to Allah and because it's given to you as a favour, you must treat it well and give it its food and drink. When you give its rights, Allah writes sawab for you and it brings blessings. The animal grows too.
This is not only for the animals we eat. Whatever you have in the household, cats or hens, it is good to look after them well. There is a hadith sharif - one lady was sent to hell. Why? She had a cat and she locked it somewhere. It died of hunger and thirst. If she had released it, it would have found something to eat or water to drink and would not have died. Because she locked it up, she was sent to hell. This is a hadith sharif. It's not acceptable to torture animals because they are speechless. It is a bigger sin. You must be merciful to every creature, for the sake of Allah.
A person, a Muslim is merciful and compassionate. Even when slaughtering, it is done slowly in a specified way, not by pushing and pulling it. Otherwise the curse of theanimal can touch the man. It's not good. At least the animal can... Some people say now, people who claim to know much, it is a torture for an animal, that's why they give it an electric shock or hit it on the head so that it doesn't feel pain. In fact,
they are idiots and they are torturing them. An animal goes through a big torture then. It is tortured when its marrow is cut. They shouldn't think they are saved. Those who do it by knowing, what they do will be asked on the Day of Judgment. Everything is written. Their bad treatment, their torture of the animal will certainly be asked about.
Always be merciful. Be merciful so that Allah is merciful to you. "Irhamu man fi l-ard yarhamukum man fi s- sama'i". Be merciful towards those on earth so that Allah looks at you with mercy and doesn't send you punishment, or so that you're not asked about it in akhira and are punished. Beware of paying its penalty in akhira.
Allah Azza wa Jalla ordering for to be good for everything in this earth. Everything it is, you are responsible for it, you must be merciful and you must look after them. Especially, if you have animal who are, they cannot speak - not understanding, not listening, not speaking this. So don't think it is they don't have anybody to look after them. Allah, He is looking, what are you doing. Human being for this non-speaking and they are just under your mercy. You must be merciful for this also and Allah reward you. Even when you feed your horse or you feed another, Allah rewards you for what are you doing. Especially if you have horse, because horse it was, old time, very important for army. Who looking after horse, everything he do for horse, Allah reward him. And for another animal also.
And many time, Prophet (sas) saying: "Maybe this who are rider, who riding him, he is better than rider". It is hadith also. Because this animal, whole animals, they are knowing their Creator, their Lord and they are praising Him. They are mentioning His Name by their way. Everything, "wa in min shay-in illa yusabbihu bihamdihi" (17:44) Everything making tasbih, mentioning Name of Allah, everything in this world. So, maybe, many of them better than human being. This is what Prophet (sas). Because, even they don't have mind but they knowing Who create them. And to look after them, it is reward. Everything you do for them it is giving you benefit. Don't think it is nothing. Everything recording. Everything, they will be seen in Judgment Day.
There is hadith one woman, she become from hell people. Why, because she left her cat in room and she didn't feed them and not
giving water for them, they die in room. If they was let them outside, they can find something to eat, they have many thing to eat. But she left them there and they died. She will go to hell. This is hadith also. So you must be merciful for all the creatures.
And when, even when slaughtering, don't push them, don't make them, beat them. By gentle you slaughter them. Now, the people who are thinking they are clever, they said it is not good to slaughter them like this. First we must give them electricity. Next time, we must shoot them in head to make them not feel any pain. And these crazy people, they're not knowing what's death, what's that minute Allah, He know and He Ordered to cut like this because He is Merciful, and the best thing for this. For other thing is giving them more pain, more suffering. and who are doing this, they are responsible. They will be charged for this in Judgment Day. Because on that Day, everything they will speak, even animal, even stone. Everything, they will say to be witness for what human being done. So, who are doing this with knowing, he will be punished and he will be regret because what he done.
Allah Azza wa Jalla He is saying:"Be merciful for whole creatures in earth to be, Allah, Merciful for you. Allah make us. Alhamdulillah, Muslim people, especially Ahl as-Sunna wa al-jama'a, they have mercy. Who don't have mercy in his heart, he must be control, he is wrong way. But who are, have mercy, he is, alhamdulillah in right way. Allah make all time mercy in our heart inshaAllah.
Wa min Allahi t-tawfiq, Al Fatiha.
143.MERCIFUL BETWEEN EACH OTHER (48:29) Thursday August 6, 2015.
As-salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim. Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. As-salatu wa s-salamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi lawwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi RasulAllah, madad ya Mashaykhina, dastur. Madad ya Sheikh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheikh Muhammad Nazim alHaqqani, dastur, madad. Tariqatuna s-sohbah, wa l-khayru fi jam'iyyah.
Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r- rajim.Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. "Muhammadu walladhina ma'ahu ashidda-u 'ala l-kufar wa ruhama-u baynahum" (48:29) That ayah. Prophet (saw) and believers, they are merciful between each other.
They are... They are helping each other. And they are respecting and they are obeying Allah. And when they are together, not arguing, not fighting between each other. Even there sometimes difference between some of them, they're saying their opinion, and after they are "Ok, we are following you, what you said" they said.
This is teaching of Prophet. Because to arguing, it is not good. From Mawlana also saying, if somebody want to argue, don't argue. Just keep quiet or you leave this there if you cannot carry [it]. But if you're arguing, it will be not good feeling. And there will be hatred between you and the other your brothers, Muslim brothers. Because when Muslim brothers coming and greeting each other, Prophet (saw) shaking hand, their bad things [that] Allah take them away from them, give them reward then. And it is sunnah to shake your hand, to make greeting, to make salam, give salam "As-salamu alaikum, O my brother" and other also answering. To give salam, it is sunnah. To take, it is obligatory fard, wajib.
The good people must be following order of Allah. Because if any difference between people, it is going to make them fight and to forget the real enemy, shaitan and [its] followers, and [cause] fighting between believers. And it is what happened for after Prophet (saw).
Non-believer all time making fitna. And there was success to make many Muslim, many believers to lose their what they have from land, from country, from... Everything they lose. But it is... Until now they are not learning anything. Still continue like this. If you have problem,
ok. You must not arguing, just listening and say your opinion. After - if they accept, ok. Not accept, don't argue, you leave them, be, not to make bigger fitna.
This is advice for these days people also. Now fitna time. Be quiet and don't be in front. Mawlana saying [you] keep in your house or you keep in where place nobody can reach you. Don't go outside also and shouting and making noise. After coming to you what from this fitna, after don't complain.
In this holy verse it is said that our Holy Prophet and those who are with the Holy Prophet are merciful amongst themselves while they are severe against their enemies. Even if they should disagree with each other, as would often happen. For instance, Umar would say one thing, and Abu Bakr would say another thing; sometimes they would accept what one said, sometimes what the other said. But they did not start a fight about it. They would say what they knew and what they had to say, expressing their thoughts. For it is not good to look only at one aspect of a matter, one needs to regard it from all sides. Not for the sake of arguing, but for the benefit of Islam, for the benefit of the believers, to consider a point of view, but not to fight or argue. Because the thing then grows and gets out of hand, and our nafs, from its own interests or from pride, our nafs does not want to submit.
So it is necessary to accept. Even if you don't agree, hold your tongue, and say - Allah knows best. As they say: "Allahu a’lam bi-thawab". Allah knows what good is in it. In this way you carry on. This sort of thing occurred from the beginning, from the very outset of Islam. But of course at the time of the Companions, who possessed wisdom and knowledge and good manners, they would say what they had to say, but this would not be followed by arguments and fights. That kind of thing only began after their time. From then on Muslims have been fighting among themselves, and behaving more mercifully towards outsiders. Whereas Muslims are supposed to be merciful towardseach other. But they do exactly the opposite.
Many states have come and gone, destroyed, many Islamic states. In this way they lost the lands conquered by Islam, most of them, or more than half, by following their nafs, by favouring their nafs. But one ought not to show favour to one's nafs. The nafs follows shaytan. By favouring it, you are favouring the devil. When a Muslim meets another Muslim, and they embrace, says our Holy Prophet, their sins fall off them just as the autumn leaves fall off the trees. The more
Muslims are kind towards each other, the more our Holy Prophet will be pleased with them, and Allah loves that servant. He says, be kind and merciful towards each other, love one another.
May Allah make us not to submit to our nafs. May mankind and Muslims among themselves try not to see each other's faults and shortcomings. Try to make excuses foreach other. Say: this one is ill, this one may be a bit elderly. Try not to take offence at the slightest prompting. May Allah grant us to live in the way we have described, with love for one another, and favouring each other, insha'Allah.
Wa min Allahi t-tawfiq, Al-Fatiha.
144.I HAVE COMPLETED MY FAVOUR(5:3) Friday, August 7, 2015.
As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim. Bismilllahi r-Rahmanir r-Rahim. As-salatu wa s-salamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi lawwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi Rasulillah, madad ya mashaykhina, dastur. Madad ya Shaykh Abdullah Daghistani, Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani, madad. Tariqatuna s-sohbah, wa l-khayru fi jam'iyyah.
Allah, may His Glory be exalted, has sent down to each of His prophets, well, of course not to all of them, there were 124,000 prophets, and to 313 of these prophets Allah revealed heavenly scriptures. One of these was of course the Prophet Musa, alayhi s- salam. The Torah was revealed to the Prophet Musa, alayhi s-salam. The Torah is a big book. It has many more pages than the Holy Qur'an. But the Qur'an is the perfect scripture. All the unbelievers kept saying to our Holy Prophet: Why does it come down little by little, Allah, exalted be He, should send it all at once! In this way they would chatter. Musa, alayhi s-salam, his people were the Bani Isra'il. To them Allah sent down the Torah as it is - it was not sent bit by bit. This great book was sent down by Allah, exalted be He, to Musa, alayhi s-salam. In it are contained all rules, instructions for worship, commands and prohibitions. The entire foundation of the religion is found in that book. The religion which Musa, alayhi s-salam, brought was the divinely revealed religion for the time of Musa, alayhi s-salam. It was revealed all at once. Because of that, people had difficulty with it. Most of them could not follow it. After the time of Musa, alayhi s-salam, they began to change things, they changed a lot. By now, in our day it contains not half, not even a quarter, perhaps 5% at most of the original true book of the Torah. But Allah Almighty, as a mercy for the nation of the Prophet, and to show the way for future generations, sent down slowly slowly. In the beginning, what did Islam consist of? When our Holy Prophet first conveyed his message as a prophet, he was instructed to teach people to say: La ilaha illAllah, Muhammadun Rasulullah. The religion was
that much. No prayer, fasting, alms-giving or any such thing. Only after this, very gradually, commands began to be revealed. The command for prayer came. Some years later was ordered for five times a day. There was no fasting yet, the only fast was the fast of Ashura [the tenth of Muharram]. There was no fast of Ramadan yet. This only was made obligatory after the hijra, the migration from Mecca to Medina. The obligatory fasting was ordered at that time. It was the same with the pilgrimage, the Hajj. It became obligatory only after the hijra. It became obligatory about 15 to 20 years after the revelation of his prophethood. There was as yet no zakat. Zakat was being given when they were fasting as the zakat of fasting. The command for zakat also came later. In this way all commands came gradually. When they were completed, our Holy Prophet gave a khutba on the day of Arafat during the pilgrimage, which was Hajj ul- Akbar, and the last Hajj he was to make, Hajj ul-Wada', the Hajj of farewell, everybody knows it. At that time he gave a great khutba, instructing the Muslims on everything they had to do and were forbidden to do. Then he recited the verse: al-yawma akmaltu lakum dinakum wa atmamtu alaykum ni’mati wa raditu lakum al-Islama dinan (5:3) This verse translates as: This day I have perfected your religion for you, and completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion. I am pleased with that religion be you also pleased with it. Some people, and most of the companions understood that the task of our Holy Prophet had come to an end, that from now on he would no longer be among the people. Some were happy that the religion was now complete, but most people understood, were sorrowful, very sad. The important thing is that it took our Holy Prophet 23 years to complete the religion. It did not happen in one day. Therefore there is ease in this religion, not hardship. A person should enter into the religion and not remain without, even if he only says: La ilaha illAllah. The rest will come later, by Allah's Grace. But he should not be proud and not follow people's whims or follow after shaytan, thinking I am this, I am that. We are nothing, all of us are weak servants. Even the greatest of men in the end will surrender his soul and be gone.
The Noble Companions of the Prophet did not forsake the religion because the Holy Prophet had gone. Some who were not among the companions, tribesmen of other tribes, at once began to rebel, saying - "We are not paying zakat." Some abandoned the religion so as not to pay zakat. But our Holy Prophet left behind him his khalifas, who preserved his way and kept to it. They spread light across the whole world. Some of those who had left the way returned to it, they repented and again attained high rank and stations. One of these was the first of the companions to come to Cyprus. He had left the path because of this problem, but afterwards he repented and returned to Islam and came as commander to Cyprus together with Hala Sultan and they conquered here. But there were some who went to war, saying - "We are what we are," and they did not accept. They perished, as well as those who were with them. But the religion of Islam persisted, thanks to Allah. Allah, exalted be He, is not in need of anyone's gratitude. If one says, "I loved the Prophet, but you I don't want," he then is also a renegade. He will be punished. But those who followed, wherever they went they were called "Sultan". All the companions wherever they went. They would say "Hala Sultan" and "Eyyub Sultan". Wherever the sahaba went, they were called "Sultan". But those others are mentioned with a curse, besides, the names of most are forgotten. One or the other is known by name, like Pharaoh, but only curses are showered upon them, nothing else. The important thing is to continue on the way our Holy Prophet showed us. The companions showed us this path, those who were close to the Holy Prophet. By following them man is not diminished. On the contrary, he will be elevated. May Allah make this road continue, may it be lasting. It will be lasting until the Day of Resurrection, insha'Allah. Today we are speaking about Musa (as) He is a messenger of Allah. There is prophet, he is prophet and messenger. Prophet - 124,000, 124,000 prophets. 313 they are messengers. They have book from Allah Allah 'Azza wa Jalla Some of them, they have five pages, some of ten pages, some 100, like Qur'an 600 pages. Torah, who was coming to Musa (as) it was big, very big. And it is, it was coming for Musa (as) once. All this what they write what they must do, what they must
worship, what they must eat, not eat, what is prohibited, what is inherited. Everything because it is religion, completely religion in this book - Torah - holy book because [it's] from Allah. Allah Azza wa Jalla He sent it [at] once. But Qur'an coming in 23 years, slowly slowly. Some of these unbeliever people they was saying, making like it is not good for why it not coming, once for him and it is coming slowly slowly like this? Because mercy of Allah, it was coming like this and to teach people until Qiyama how to behave. Because this book, holy book for Musa (as). It come once and these people, it was very heavy for them. Once they didn't know anything and they quickly they must learn, they must obey, they must follow this. And Allah Azza wa Jalla He create them by His wisdom. They was clever people but even for them, it was heavy. They couldn't do what Allah ordered, what write in this book and, because they were clever, they make a trick. They cut, cut, cut, until now, maybe only five percent left from Torah, [the] real Torah. So other only they change by their opinion. But for Qur'an, Allah He said inna nahnu nazzalna l-dhik'ra wa-inna lahu lahafidhun (15:9) He said. We sent this holy book, Qur'an and we are keeping from any different, changing. Until Qiyama it will be. Before Qiyama it will be, in short time before Qiyama until short time of Qiyama, it will be preserved. It will be until that time; nothing. But in the, for Qiyama signs in Qur'an it will be completely erased. You cannot find in Qur'an when if you see, at that time all it will be erased. And if anybody know by heart he will be not there. Finished. Until that time, no changing at all. And it was coming part by part for Prophet (saws). First of all Islam it was when Prophet (saws) Allah sending as a prophet and when he was in 40 year age to be Islam. Only saying La ilaha ill Allah Muhammad Rasulullah. Nothing else. No praying, no fasting, no zakat, no anything. Only this it was ordered. After this, slowly coming, praying. But not five time a day, just praying as they want. After many years, become five time day praying. After this coming fasting. But they fasting not in Ramadan, (but) in Muharram, 'Ashura. That times. After this, coming to, after coming to Medina, in Ramadan fasting. After coming zakat. After coming Hajj.
Like this, slowly slowly it was coming. and between these teaching ablution washing from to be clean. Everything it was slowly slowly. Even they was drinking [wine]. When it was forbidden, they crashed all this or throwing in street it was like river. It was like this, slowly slowly coming. [After] 23 years complete. And it was complete in Hajj time - the last Hajj for Prophet (saws) and it's name 'Hajjat ul-wada'. It is meaning Hajj of leaving. And he was saying, "al yawm akmaltu lakum dinakum wa-atmamtu alaykum ni'mati wa raditu lakumu lislama dina"(5:3) This day I have perfected for you your religion and I have completed upon you My favour and I have approved for you Islam a religion. (5:3) This ayat he was saying in Arafat, the day before Hajj in Arafat and it was Friday. And he was saying long khutba. So, many of companions, sahaba of Prophet (saws) was crying because they know he will leave them. Some of them, they not know. One of Bani Israil there was saying when he hear this - "You must make this day Eid, Feast." And Hazrat Omar ibn Khattab said, 'Of course it was Eid. It was Prophet was there and it was Arafat, it was in Arafat. So, it is Eid for us also this day." So, it is coming like this. And after many, few months, Prophet (saws) he was going to akhira and companions they are following him, following what he has ordered because he make everything right and he left for them this. And they are continuing with what he ordered, what his command and they was real companions, not leaving Prophet (saws). They was with him and other who are, they have weak 'irada' - willpower, weak willpower. There was some of them, for money, because they don't want to give zakat, they come out of Islam. Some of them, they was really not happy with Islam, they also ... So they was fighting with them and many of them, they came back. Even, some of them who was out of Islam come again. He regretted, repented and even one of them who was like this, he become commander, and he come to with Hala Sultan to conquer Cyprus also. But he was real repentant. Other[s] they was only for them and for their ego. They was fighting and they try to be another prophet. They was not succeed and people who follow them they was destroy their people and there, nobody know about them. Very few of them, like Firawn, like Nimrod,
their name by people known. But many of them, they are not knowing anybody for [from] them. Allah He is not in need for them and He is with Prophet (saws) and his companions. They conquered all these countries of Islam and they spread the light of Islam there. Very, who these few people who are doing these wrong things, it was bad for them and not good for their people. You must be with right. You must be with Allah. Prophet (saws) he is even he went to akhira but he is alive. He is hearing and hears when you say salawat he is coming and taking salawat and he is happy with you. Don't think awliyaAllah, or loved, beloved Allah's beloved servants, they are happy with who they are leaving and running away. No, they are just following their ego. But even this, we will say. Slowly slowly Allah gives the real Muslim good understanding and to not run away from Islam. Islam it is the biggest favour. Prophet (saws) wa-atmamtu 'alaykum ni'mati (5:3) - I complete this favour for this Prophet (saws) saying. So it is big favour. Don't run away from favour. Run away from bad, from evil, from your ego run away. Don't run away from favour. Allah make this favour all time on us InshaAllah Wa min Allah it-tawfiq, Al Fatiha
145.THE WRESTLER’S LAST TRICK Saturday, August 8, 2015.
Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim. Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. As-salatu wa ssalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi l-awwalina wa l-akhirin. Meded ya RasulAllah, meded ya Sadati Ashabi Rasulillah, meded ya Mashayikhina, destur, meded ya Shaykh Abdullah d-Daghistani, meded ya Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani, meded. Tariqatuna as-sohbah, wa l-khayru fi jam'iyyah.
To make peace between Muslims, says our Holy Prophet, is the best thing we can do, to make things better between Muslims, to show the right way. When there were two groups who were angry at each other, our Holy Prophet would try to reconcile them. He would go and say to them, "Let's make up." Once a fight broke out in Medina, in Quba, where the masjid of Quba is. He said, "Let's go there and make peace between them." Also, when making peace between Muslims it is permissible to lie. It is permitted in this case, and when reconciling a man with his wife. And of course also in case of war. Warfare is deception, for if you openly say to your enemy: I am going to do this, he will take advantage of the occasion and defeat you. That is why in some cases, in some situations, it is allowed to do certain things. For everything there is a method, a basic rule. Islam, our Holy Prophet showed the very best way, because there is no trust, safety. As a Qur'an verse says: Wa la tu'minu illa li-man tabi’a dinakum"(3:73) Do not trust anyone who is not of your own religion. That is, in the case he is a true Muslim. Otherwise, at other times, if that person has dealings with bad people, of course you must not place much trust in him. Our Holy Prophet means to say that you should be moderate; if you love someone, do not love him overly much, he says. A day might come when he will be your enemy. He will know all your secrets, and he will defeat you, and do you harm. Maybe you have an enemy, but don't hate him too much, do not act too badly towards him, for it could be that he will become your friend. Such is the way of the world.
Things change in this world. Nothing remains the same. Therefore, in order to feel safe and secure, do not go to the extreme with anything. Keep something for yourself that will help you out. In former times, before guns, firearms were invented, people had wrestlers, it was the main time of wrestling. They would challenge each other to wrestle. They were experts in these matters. Once there was a man, who was a great wrestler master, no one could defeat him. By his side he had a trainee, a new wrestler in training is called a trainee. There was no one who could defeat this wrestler. He was much loved by the Sultan. Wrestling is not all as it seems to be. It is not all about grabbing and pushing and pulling, there are secrets to it, and there is a method of how to bring your opponent down, how to bring him to the ground and defeat him. There are principles, there are certain tricks. This trainee had already been taught 999 of these tricks by his master. But one he had not yet taught him. The trainee insisted that he teach him everything, but the master just passed over it. In the end the trainee became a very strong wrestler indeed. Nobody could resist him. The Sultan was delighted with him, he was his favourite, being such a powerful wrestler in those days people valued such qualities, such wrestlers as he were highly prized. This wrestler in the Sultan's presence followed his nafs to say: "Nobody can overcome me!" Even though his master was there with him. The Sultan resented that remark, but said nothing to him. So there he challenged his master. All right, said the Sultan, if you should win, you will still give all your titles to the master, for all he taught you. Ok, he said. Really, nobody could resist him, he was such a strong, powerful wrestler. His master entered the ring. The master knew that his student was stronger than he, but he was also very clever. He had experience, and experience is important. Because of his experience, without giving him a chance, he applied the one trick he had not taught him and brought him down to the ground. He knocked him out. The trainee sprawled on the ground. "O master," he said, "that one you did not teach me." "I did not teach it to you because of this time now." Nothing human can be entirely trusted. Do not tell everything. Do not tell everybody everything. For when more than two people know a secret, it no longer is a secret. Actually, if more than one person knows
about it, it no longer is a secret. Some people just cannot keep a secret. But at times it is necessary. Some people are trusting and say it, but it is not good to say it to another. This is an important point. Get along well with people, but don't go to extremes. Do not go too far in hating people, but also do not tell everything you know to the one you love, there is no need. For sometimes, most of the time really, things are bound to change. May Allah make us to be good people, may He make us to be trustworthy, insha'Allah. Prophet (saws) he was the most best thing he said to do to make people to not be fighting, to make them peace between people, between neighbours, between these friends. When they are fighting you must make them to come together again. Prophet he said this is the biggest good thing to do and he was doing this. He was even encouraging sahaba. Once they were fighting in between people in Medina near Quba. He said 'Let's go there to make peace between them'. And even in this many, very few place you can say a lie for [to] make peace between people. You can say 'This man he love you' but he not love you, OK. But you can say this. And between wife and husband also you can say lie to make them to come together again. And in war you must not tell truth, because your enemy is waiting something to know what you are doing to attack on you. When he say this is in his front, everything clear he can do and he will win on you. So don't make this enemy to come on you and to be, you must be awake. Don't trust or don't go for extreme. Don't go extreme. Prophet (saws) say - If you love somebody, don't love extreme love. Maybe sometimes he can [be]come enemy for you and he will know all your secrets and he will harm you. And if you hate somebody, don't hate him extreme. Allah changing sometimes - this man, he become your best friend and you will be shy for what you said to him or what you done for him. So don't be very extreme. Be careful. Every time there was old time, before gun and powder, gunpowder it exist. There was people, strong people, they was fighting with hands and especially they have wrestlers. They are acceptable people these
people. They have good manners and they are good people. Their a Sultan and if they was like them they was very close for them. One of these very strong wrestlers he know a thousand tricks. Because wrestling, not only strong, strength, it need also, some trick to make your fighter who [is] against you, to make him [go] down. Not only with this strength you must be thinking also. And there was these people teaching people around them also. Between these what he was teaching them, there was one young man, He was very strong and he have ability, and he was happy with him. And he was teaching him all these tricks and he was learning quickly and he was very strong. He teach him 999 tricks. Only one, he didn't teach him. He, all time asking - O! Master! Teach me this! Teach me this! He was say 'yes yes, oh, oh'. He was just making - not teaching him. Once, when he become, the other one, famous and nobody can stop in front of him and he become proud. Once in Sultan's table he said 'nobody can stop on front of me'. Sultan was not happy with this. And this, his master also he was there. He said 'How you say this for your M
