219.THE RAIN OF IMAN Saturday, December 12, 2015.
Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim As-salatu wa s-salamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi l-awwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi Rasulillah, madad ya Mashayikhina, dastoor. Madad ya Shaykh Abdullah Daghistani, Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani, madad.
For the sake of the beautiful face of the Prophet (sas) you can ask for rain. "yustasqa l-ghamamu bi wajhihi l-kareem". For the sake of his (sas) beautiful face ask for rain. This is the month of the Prophet (sas), month of Mawlid. For his barakah, inshaAllah it rains. Because people now don't know if it is summer or winter. If it is not raining, they say "Oh, such lovely weather, it is sunny". When there is no water, they start criticizing the government, this and that. But Allah gave us the biggest favour. He gave us the Prophet (sas) as a blessing and mercy for people. For his (sas) sake, everything, all goodness comes to us. Of course non-believers, people who are out of Islam do not respect the Prophet (sas). They do not respect Islam. They see it and show it in a negative way. They hold a conference about global warming, this and that. Whose fault is this? Of course it is the non-believers' fault. It is the disbelievers’ fault because Allah doesn't show mercy to non-believers. They rebel against Allah, they don't accept Allah's favours. They say everything is by coincidence. They say the world is warming up, this much damage is done. What damages and pollutes the world most is disbelief. "laysa ba'da l-kufru dhanbi" he says. If you are a non-believer, there is no other sin. You have already committed the biggest sin.
They polluted the world, polluted the air, polluted the soil, polluted the sea. "Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim: "Corruption has appeared on land and sea because of [the evil] which men's hands have done"(30:41) They did it with their hands. Our Prophet (sas) is a mercy for the worlds. He says that whoever pollutes the water sometimes is cursed, sometimes it is considered a big sin. If you throw garbage, pollute or contaminate clean water or a river, it is a sin. This is the way that the Prophet (sas) has shown. They don't know this, they don't know this pureness, beauty. Because they are: "the polytheists are unclean"(9:28) The mushrik are unclean. They are not clean. They are not clean themselves, how are they going to keep any place clean? What they eat, drink, is unclean. They contaminate, wherever they go, they pollute.
The way of our Prophet (sas) is a beautiful way. Who follows that way is nice and clean. That's why the saints, the companions are like noor (light), they are clean people. Both inside and outside. Non-believers may appear clean from the outside. Even that is not true. If you walk with him 2 minutes you'll see how he doesn't care about being clean.
They criticize Islam. Islam is not bad. Islam is the best religion. Islam is the last religion. According to Allah it is Islam that is the religion. The Last Prophet, our Master, the most honorable Prophet, Sayyidi l- Mursaleen, highest among all Prophets. Whoever follows him (sas) will never lose here and hereafter. Whatever happens it is for his good. Even if it appears as a loss, it is for his good actually. There is no such thing as "loss or losing" for someone, who follows, respects, honors our Prophet (sas).
This is a beautiful month. Praise him as much as you can. Thanks to Allah as a great blessing to this island they brought the holy relics of the Prophet (sas). They came from India to Istanbul. Thousands of people visited. Tomorrow evening inshaAllah, it will be open for visitors in Hajji Anne Mosque in Lefkosha. There are some people coming from outside but the people on this island if they come, it will be a blessing for them. But still it is a blessing for our island. With Allah's permission. Inside this island, it is full of precious things although there are dirty things on it as well. There are maqams and tombs of the companions. There are more than 1.000 companions, mashayikh, saints. Hajji Anne and Mawlana are here.
So until the end of this world, with Allah's permission the flag of Islam won't fall down on this island. No matter how many people oppose it for the sake of these holy ones, Islam will remain. Mawlana said that they are like the people of Moses (as) saying "Go with your Lord and fight with them. When you win we come". The ones who said this were stuck at one place, they couldn't get out of the desert until they died. Their children went and conquered. InshaAllah, here also the fathers they had negative thoughts, now it is changing with Allah's permission. The new generation inshAllah, will come cleaner. Allah's favor.
If Allah put the companions here, surely they are protecting this place. Thanks to Allah. InshaAllah, for the sake of these holy relics and for the respect of the Prophet (sas) they came all the way here. It should be a blessing. This year there is no rain, inshaAllah for his (sas) sake, rain falls and blessing comes, inshaAllah. InshaAllah, both physically everywhere goes green and most importantly, belief blossoms in the
hearts. With this rain and mercy inshaAllah, young people here come to the right way, inshaAllah it leads them to the right way because this place is very important. With Allah's permission, inshaAllah, it may be a blessing for Anatolia and for the whole world inshaAllah.
We are saying about baraka of Prophet (sas), Allah sending rain. He said "wa yustasqa 'l-ghamam bi wajhihi 'l-kareem". By his lightness and beautiful face of Prophet (sas) Allah sending rain. And we are asking this rain for all of world. InshaAllah, for world because these people, they are saying it has become no rain and everything, weather changing, becoming more hot, becoming flood, everything coming, bad weather. And they are making conference for this. Whole presidents and important people, they are going and trying to do something. But what they will do? They are unbeliever world. There is two kinds of word in this time, believers and non-believers, Muslim and non- Muslim. This is more opened. Non-Muslim, they are not believers. They say 'believers' but they are only looking for they said this science. Just looking for this. And they are asking solution. Solution in Islam. And they are showing Islam as horrible thing. Islam not horrible. Islam the religion of Allah and His messenger Sayyidina Muhammad (saw). And it is ordering clean, to be clean in everything. You must be clean. If you are clean, everything not wrong in this world.
First thing what Prophet (sas) saying to clean yourself, the water, it must be clean. This is first lesson in fiqh, the book of Islamic practicing. First thing, you must look for water, clean water. You cannot put any dirty in water. But water raining, running river, if you put any bad thing in this, Allah curse you, Prophet (sas) curse you and it is big sin. Even this enough to understand Islam, how it is great. And it is from Allah. Because one man put one cup of dirt in this water, other put in other, then finish this river. You cannot drink, you cannot use it. And it is really bad. You cannot do in old time this.
Cleanness for non-Muslim, it is nothing. It is not important at all. Even what they eat, it is dirty. Pork, it is dirty in Islam. Wine, it is also dirty, if it come to your clothes, you must wash your clothes. And they are drinking, eating dirt. So this is what even one part of Islam. They know it is real heavenly religion. Other religion also, Judaism and Christian also good but they are changing too much. It is not like this what Jesus ordered or Sayyidina Musa (as) ordering. They are ordering also clean but they are changing, changing and coming until now. And become like this whole world, like desert.
Yeah, but people, they are not realizing this. "It's only ok, this winter, it is good. No rain, it's sunny days, good days. We are happy". But after when they're not finding water, they are crying, shouting for government, for municipality "Where is water? Where is electricity?" But they are not looking for main. So these people who are making conference and they are against Allah and His rule, they are only losers. They cannot do anything, they cannot fix. Allah give us this world very clean, very green, everything in very good shape, but people, they're doing this in this world. There is ayat also: "zaharal fasadu fil barri wal baḥr bima kasabat āydin nas" (30:41) Corruption has appeared on land and sea because of [the evil] which men's hands have done.
This, what happened, it is from people hand. They do for themselves. What they are doing wrong, they are. Allah not affecting [by] anything. If whole universe it is going to finish, nothing affects Allah, even one part. It is only for benefit of people to follow what Allah give us. This, the biggest favour to be in this time, and, to be followers of Prophet (sas). But people, they are not knowing what they are doing. They finish this world and they make it a terrible place. They are doing for themselves also. Alhamdulillah, nothing affects who are following Prophet (sas). Nothing harm them inshaAllah. And it is big pleasure and favour to us, Allah sent us Prophet (sas). And this our brother coming from India, he bring us amanat, belongings of Prophet (sas) from India, from Delhi, where salateen were living and they were respecting and keeping. Subhanallah, before two months we were there and we visited. Alhamdulillah, now coming here. It is signs of baraka for all this area inshaAllah. They bring to Istanbul. More than maybe 50,000 people, I think, they visit.
It is baraka for this country because they are fighting against all kufr, all world. Some people, they are looking friend, some people looking enemy, but all fighting because they want to finish. But Allah not finish. It is sign, good sign also this belonging of Prophet coming to Istanbul and now coming to this island also. This island is very holy island also, because it is what Prophet (sas) saying "jazeerat-ul khudrah". And he said "I'm seeing Sahaba going and be shaheed in green island". So in this island there is more than thousand Sahaba shaheed. Many of them we don't know. Only maybe ten of them they know, but other, all around the island. So inshaAllah this island, it is holy island. And Mawlana also here, Haji Anne here. So this sign coming also to
bring to Cyprus, these belongings of Prophet (sas). InshaAllah more baraka coming. InshaAllah, we hope rain also will come, inshaAllah with baraka of Prophet (sas). And we are hoping more to rain of iman, of belief to green in our heart and heart of these, our people in this island.
Mawlana, his last sohbats, he was saying, "I wish all this island to be believers." He was saying this. InshaAllah, inshaAllah, it will be. No doubt. The old people, non-believers, they are nearly all of them, gone. InshaAllah new generation, they will be with baraka of Sahaba and Prophet (sas) to make it until Qiyama, Islam island here. Nothing else inshaAllah.

220.THE GREATEST BLESSING Sunday, December 13, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
May Allah be content with you all. Mashallah we prayed the morning (Fajr) and night (Isha) prayers together. Alhamdulillah we have not become amongst the group our Holy Prophet (SAW) mentioned. Why? The sign of the hypocrite1 is not praying the morning and night prayers with the congregation2. Already today’s people, most, do not pray at home either let alone with the jamaat. They do not realize how empty their lives are. When there is no prayer and no azan3, humans go out of humanity. The goal of humankind is Allah. There is no difference from an animal when that is missing. Days pass by, and in the end they come to the presenc of Allah empty handed. Allah Azza wa Jalla gave us great blessings. Thank Allah we are the nation of our Holy Prophet (SAW). It is the month of Mawlid again, may Allah make it good. May Allah make us reach many Mawlids to come. May it be a guidance for Islam, Muslims, and the whole Islamic world. Because the Islamic world is in a state of confusion. When you celebrate the Mawlid of our Holy Prophet (SAW) and honor our Master, some people come out saying you are a mushrik4 and are committing bidat5. Thank Allah it is not so much in Turkey, but that confusion6 exists more outside of Turkey. Allah Azza wa Jalla gave us this blessing and we have to know its vlaue. This is not a measurable worth. All prophets since Adam (Alayhis Salam) would wish to be an individual from the nation of our Holy Prophet (SAW) even if not a prophet. Meaning we are in such a great blessing and people are unaware. Most people are unaware. Let us honor our Holy Prophet (SAW). Honoring our Holy Prophet (SAW) is worship, a great worship. The poet says in the Qasida Burda: “Say all that Christians are saying. Do not call him a ‘god’ but call him everything else.” So he says we should honor him that much. Our Holy Prophet (SAW) is deserving of it.
Thank Allah these people, those who come here, all know the value. However, those outside do not know. They need to be taught and they need to be informed. Madrasas, tekkes, dargahs, zawiyas, and tariqas teach it best. They guide people and inject the love of our Holy Prophet
(SAW) in people. His love is the highest thing. It is worthless if it is missing. You can do as much worship as you like, it is worthless without his shafaat7. It is a dry, unnecessary, and selfish thing. You would be going on the way of Shaitan. There is a Hadith Sharif. Our Holy Propher (SAW) asked Shaitan, “Who is your greatest enemy?” And he did not lie and said, “You!” Who is our Holy Prophet’s enemy? It is Shaitan. The slightest unreasonable word or thaught cannot be for the Holy Prophet (SAW). So those who know the language of the Koran, and know all the hadiths and the Koran yet say, “The Prophet died. He is also like us. It is shirk to honor him!” are fooled by Shaitan. Allah forbid. If we do not know anything, we can be saved by only the love of Hadrat Prophet and the shafaat of Hadrat Prophet. If we know everything and do not honor him, do not show respect towards him, our end would be difficult. Allah forbid. May Allah (JJ) bless this month of ours. It is the blessed month of Mawlid. May Allah’s blessings and abundance be upon us Inshallah. May Allah be content with all of you.

221. DO NOT OPPRESS YOURSELVES Monday, December 14, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
Because it is the month of Mawlid, everything in this month is for the love and affection of our Holy Prophet (SAW). To make intention for the month of Mawlid makes a person gain more good deeds and their rewards do not go missing. You need to say it for Hadrat Prophet (SAW).
There is a Hadith Sharif. When giving charity1, you should say you are also giving it for your parents. It says the same good deeds would be written for you and for them. When you are about to offer prayer2 or do an extra prayer3, saying you are doing it for your parents makes you and them gain good deeds.
The treasures of Allah Azza wa Jalla do not finish, do not deplete. Allah (JJ) is generous. So if you say you are giving for Hadrat Prophet (SAW) during this month, Allah (JJ) would also give you from the good deeds He gives our Holy Prophet (SAW). Allah Azza wa Jalla is that generous. Allah (JJ) loves giving to people and He encourages people to do good, to good deeds, and to goodness. People are not aware. Even if they are aware, Shaitan outweighs them. People are ungrateful in the face of so much good.
Allah Azza wa Jalla did not make anything difficult. Difficulty is made by people’s own ego and Shaitan. Allah Azza wa Jalla showed us all kinds of ease and made everything simple. Everything people call hard have come from people’s own ego. The more people make mistakes and commit sins, the more their ego takes control of them. When you do evil, make a mistake, or commit a sin, it says to do good afterwards. It erases it.
It is the hadith of our Holy Prophet (SAW): “When you commit a sin,
immediately follow it with a good deed.” You will do good. How? Even saying “Astaghfirullah” is a good deed. As we said, Allah showed humankind all ease. Allah says he does not wrong anybody on Judgment Day. People are wronging themselves.
“Innash-shirka lathulmun ‘atheem.” (Sura Loqman:13) To associate partners with Allah is a great oppression. Neither evil nor good effects Allah. People oppress (do wrong to) themselves. Allah (JJ) says do not oppress. First, do not oppress your own selves. Do not do evil. Do good.
As we said, this is a blessed month. Always accustom your tongues so you say from the Prophet’s Mawlid Sharif for the love of the Prophet. Whatever you do, get yourselves used to making it also for your parents so it goes to them too. For the sake of this month, may its advice also be continuous Inshallah. Do not fear hardships. Hardships, as we said, come from people’s own selves.
Allah created everything and the fate of everything is obvious. It is the same whether you fear or not, whether you do good or not: your fate will come again. Therefore, there is no hardship Allah willing. We need to be thankful to Allah.

222. ANXIETY Tuesday, December 15, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
May Allah (JJ) make this month of ours (Rabiul Awwal) blessed. This month is the month of our Holy Prophet (SAW) and the month of mawlid1. Honor our Holy Prophet (SAW) during this month. Do not forget. Becasue Shaitan reminds of bad things and makes us forget good things.
What are bad things? Many people have waswasa2. Anxiety is from Shaitan. Speaking of anxiety, obession is also an anxiety. The man gets up to make ablution3 and thinking, “No, it is not done,” stays in making it for half an hour. In fact, many people leave prayer because they could not make ablution due to this anxiety.
Shaitan does not remind good things, but the person who gets anxious needs to do it one time: when waswasa comes while making ablution you should say to Shaitan, “If you don’t like it, you do the ablution.” You will say, “If there is anything else you don’t like, you do it!” They need to remember and say this. Otherwise it will get worse and worse. Allah forbid, it can lead to an illness in the head later.
Allah never gives anybody a burden they cannot bear. A person with an excuse can even make ablution between Zuhr (Noon) and Asr (Afternoon) or after Asr when the azan4 is called. That ablution is good for one time period. They might pass gas or urine might drop. It is not important at all. Meaning Allah showed such ease for people so they do not torture themselves.
The one who tortures is Shaitan. The one who makes it difficult is Shaitan. Otherwise, Allah’s religion is the religion of ease and disposition. It is a religion that fits human disposition and nature. Our religion does not make us doo hard things. Allah has only ordered
what humans can do. He has not ordered anything else. There is no such order to lift 100 kilograms or 150 kilograms. It is however much you can do. Therefore do not torment yourself. Do what Allah orders and that is it. Do not get anxious.
People of these time have become prone to all kinds of anxieties and obessions. Of course, it is comfortable now compared to old times. In the past, when people attempted to do laundry, they would wash by hand for one day. There was a laundry day. But now they throw it in the machine then sit and get anxious: “I wonder why this happened and why that happened? Is this right or not?” Do not be anxious. Our Holy Prophet (SAW) is Rahmatan Lil’alameen, he is merciful. He came with mercy, not to torment anybody. Increase the salawat during this month Inshallah. May our Holy Prophet’s (SAW) himma5 be upon us Inshallah.

223. MAWLID AND CHRISTMAS Wednesday, December 16, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
It is the wisdom of Allah that this year the Mawlid Sharif falls close to what they call Christmas, near the birth of Hadrat Isa1. A difference is made when it is close to each other like this so people may remember. Most people follow Shaitan. Properly speaking, Christmas is not the birth of Hadrat Isa. The birth is another date. They chose this season because it was an empty season, in the middle of winter. In the past, nothing could be done when days were short. Therefore, they made this to be an entertainment. They said, “We have nothing to do and we would be making some trade. This fits us!” and came out with the thing called Christmas. Of course, nobody in the past, the Muslim world had not heard of this deal. Now you see they follow it the most as if it was something better and try doing something. There are those who do it unknowingly, but what is being done is a sin again. May Allah forgive them then. What can we say? Those doing it knowingly are endangering their iman2. What is being done draws the anger and wrath of Allah. Now what does that mean? Everything is in the hands of Allah. You cannot oppose Allah. If you oppose Him, you will suffer punishment both in the world and in the hereafter. This Mawlid Sharif is two days before what they are calling. And this is so people are given a wake up call not to enter this sin, and not to celebrate New Year or Chritmas. I see that some of the people we visit that are called high society, may Allah cause them to think straight, hang decorations on their doors. Where are they learning this? They are learning it from movies. What is poisoning all people anyway are the movies these strangers are making. They show these movies as if they were something good. We went to America during Christmas time in the year ‘95. This much celebration is not even done there. Wherever you go in our Islamic countries, everybody is after celebrating. It passes quietly, calmly, and in a normal fashion there. Our people are trying hard as if it was something important. In the end, it goes away with them being tightened inside, uneasy, without light, and in a troubled
manner. So there is no such thing as “I am happy” or “I freshened up”. It does not happen. Becasue Allah gives both distress and relief. Allah gives tranquility, happiness, and light to His Muslim servant who honors Hadrat Prophet, who loves Hadrat Prophet, respects him, and always does things for the love of Hadrat Prophet. If they do not honor him and go and do what these enemies of Islam do, Allah gives them tightness, their insides darken, and their faces darken. Allah forbid. May Allah give guidance to these people. Do not ever come close to even the slightest things they do. Not the red joker thing they put on their heads nor anything else. They came out with a great deal of things just so it sells. There are no blessings3 in that. On the contrary, you would draw Allah’s anger and wrath over yourself. Do not ever resort to those. Stay away.

224. UMRA Thursday, December 17, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
Following Hajj, Umra has also started today. May Allah bless it. Performing Umra is one of the most virtuous acts of worship. A person visits both the Baytullah1 and our Holy Prophet (SAW).
Our Holy Prophet (SAW) says, “Whoever visits my grave is as if they visited me while I was in this life.” Those blessed places give people a spiritual food. And because it is the month of Mawlid now, more gifts2 are provided by Allah Azza wa Jalla. Those who can should do the Umra.
Some do the Umra before the Hajj. For those who have the money and do the Umra, if possible, meaning if there are no visa or other restrictions, doing the Hajj the same year becomes necessary3 for them. If they do not have that much means, may Allah accept it. It is good to do Umra. What is better than that is of course for those who have not gone to Hajj to go to Hajj.
Some people, may Allah give them a late death, say they would like to visit the Kaaba and Hadrat Prophet’s (SAW) maqam4 before death arrives. They want to go becasue they do not want to die before seeing and visiting those places. That is why Umra is one of the most acceptable worships. Our Holy Prophet (SAW) says inbetween two Umras is like Hajj. It is a very blessed and virtuous worship. May Allah bless it for those who go. Many ikhwan5 went today. May they go and and come back joyfully Inshallah. May their accepted duas reach us too Inshallah. May the Nation of Muhammad6 be victorious, and may Mahdi Alayhis Salam Inshallah come soon. May our Shaykh’s himmat7 be present and his stations be high.

225. MAWLID IS NOT BIDAH Friday, December 18, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
The month of Mawlid is a month that needs to be honored. The greatest blessing Allah (JJ) gave us, we need not forget this, it is a great blessing to be the Nation of our Holy Prophet (SAW). People are in a state of heedlessness, they do not know its value, and they waste it. They wander after other, useless, unbeneficial works and unbeneficial people. Let alone unbeneficial, they wander after harmful people or harmful works. Allah gave us blessings and we do not see the blessings. They think it is somewhat beautiful with paint and what not on the outside, but they do not see the dirt lying underneath. To honor this month is one of the best works we are to do. Are they calling it a bidah1? Now these appeared. So some are not aware of this blessing. However, people are inside this blessing, people who have been created Muslim, in the realm of Ummat Muhammad, but Shaitan wants to put them at loss. They call Mawlid bid’ah. This is also a group that read some books and is coming out supposedly understanding Islam. There, this is what happens when they have no murshid as their leader, when there is no true guide. This way people can see how books alone cannot give benefit. This religion, this humanity, and the whole world were created for our Holy Prophet (SAW). Those of true faith believe in this. For us to believe is within the pillars of iman, but look at the situation that Shaitan is misguiding so many people. They are calling those who honor our Holy Prophet (SAW) and carrying out Allah’s order mushriks2, shirk3. This means the book they are reading is not giving benefit. Books do not give benefit by themselves. They must absolutely follow a beloved servant of Allah, otherwise their situation is not good at all. When a sin is committed unknowingly, a person can repent and Allah may forgive. However, when a sin is committed with insistence, the person suffers its punishment. Not honoring our Holy Prophet (SAW) is a sin, not makruh4 but a sin. Allah Azza wa Jalla says to honor the Hadrat Prophet (SAW), to make salat and salam upon
him, to make dhikr of him, and to visit him. Our Master (SAW) states, “He who visits me at my grave is as if he has visited me while I am alive.” What does this mean? It shows what an important thing and what a high station it is. It is not as what these people say. It is not a bidah or shirk to honor our Holy Prophet (SAW). On the contrary, it is the most virtuous and most rewarded work. Allah Azza wa Jalla says
to make salat and salam.
˚
“InnAllaha wa malaikatahu yusalluna
‘alannabi, ya ayyuhallathina amanu sallu ‘alayhi wa sallimu tasleema.” (Sura Ahzab:56) He says to make salat and salam. Meaning to continuously make salat and salam. When and how much is not told. Honor and make salat and salam as much as you want on our Holy Prophet (SAW), Allah would treat you that much and it would never go to waste. As we said, these people are educated ignorants. They have beomce the toys of Shaitan. Why are we saying this? Supposedly Muslimism has grown. That is why Shaitan is diminishing some things from the inside to misguide Muslims from the way. If you said this in the past, they would laugh at you saying, “How can such a thing be?” They are calling the Mawlid and honoring our Master (SAW) bidah and shirk. However, people these days have gotten used to hearing such things and do not show much of a response. We need to show a response to such people. If there is one punishment for the person who is not a scholar or an uneducated person, there is double the punishment for these people who claim to be scholars. Why? Because they are misguiding themselves and others. He denies it even though he reads. May Allah guide our nation, Inshallah may they not follow these people. Because darkness descends upon those who follow them. What use is it after Allah’s rage descends? No blessings and goodness would be in what they do. Those people do not make Allah (JJ) or the Prophet (SAW) happy, but they make Shaitan happy.
Let people not follow their ego, but let them follow a friend of Allah. The ego and Shaitan fool people. The person who does not have a murshid, a guide for the way, leaves the way and enters danger. However, people who have a mentor, a conselor next to them, go on the right way whether it is day or night, reach where they intend to go, and do not deviate to another place. These people get on the way to find the true Islam and iman, but they immediately deviate from the way. Our Holy Prophet (SAW) says it is a good deed to show the way. It is a sunna to show the way. If someone asks you for directions, you show them the way if you know it and it is the right thing to do. In some countries, if you ask some people the way they tell you the opposite. There are many like that. If people go and ask Shaitan for the way, of course he will show them the opposite way. However, if they
take the road with someone who knows the way, they do not need to ask anybody, they complete the trip in safety, and reach a good place and are comfortable. Otherwise, their whole life passes in fitna5, corruption, and darkness. In the end, even if they save their iman, our Holy Prophet (SAW) will not intercede on their behalf on the Day of Judgement because they do not accept shafaat either. There is such a thing with these guys. They neither accept shafaat nor do they accept other people’s help. They do not accept anything. They think they will save themselves with what they do, and in the end they are regretful but it is too late. Because our Holy Prophet (SAW) does not look at them for what they have done in the world. Our Holy Prophet (SAW) looks at the sinful person, but he does not look at these people. Becasue they have both arrogance and bad manners. Arrogance, being proud of themselves, and all kinds of traits that are not good is with these people. These are rude and rough people. However, sinful people, if they say, “I have committed a sin. Shafaat Ya Rasulallah,” they would gain the intercession of our Holy Prophet (SAW).
“My intercession is for those of great sins from my Nation,” says our Holy Prophet (SAW). But let them be respectful towards our Holy Prophet (SAW). May this month of ours be blessed. Let us honor this month. Let us remind each other of this month. Let us remember our Holy Prophet (SAW) with salat and salam, and make more salat and salam. Let us do the good deeds for the honor of our Holy Prophet (SAW). Let us help the poor and needy for the sake of his Mawlid. If you tell them you are giving for the sake of our Holy Prophet (SAW), they will be happy so they may remember the month of Mawlid next year. Let them be happy that they were treated in the month of the Mawlid. This is also a good thing. Inshallah, may we reach many more Mawlids. May Allah give guidance to these groups, these bad groups. Guidance is from Allah. May Allah give them common sense. Thank Allah, this is the country, Anatolia, with the strongest love towards the Prophet (SAW). Thank Allah we have travelled all over the world. There is much love everywhere, but the other group is like cancer. They are spreading everywhere. Shaitan is spreading it. We do not have many here, thank Allah, but they are a lot in other places. That is why we are saying, “May Allah correct them.” May Allah protect from their evils. You are doing the Mawlid in ease here, you are doing everything, but it is not so easy in other places. When you gather a little too much, they immediately think something else, or there is danger from all sides. May Allah (JJ) send the Islamic world the owner who will take ownership Inshallah. Inshallah, Mahdi Alayhis Salam appears next year so Allah (JJ) saves the Ummat Muhammad. May Allah be satisfied
with you all.

226. AS MUCH AS YOU CAN DO Friday, December 18, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajim. Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. “La yukallifullahu nafsan illa wus’aha.” (Sura Baqara:286) Allaz Azza wa Jalla gave humankind as much load as they can bear. They can do that and not be under a load they cannot bear. This applies to everything in every sense. Allah (JJ) already mentioned the worships. They are also as much as you can bear. Do not say you cannot do it! Since Allah created you, He has surely also assessed how much you can do and showed it to you. You can easily do that much. Doing less or saying you cannot do it is lying. Do not do more than you can do. Do as much worship as you can continuously do and let it be constant. Do not do a lot quickly so it does not become too much. It is Allah’s wisdom that when people are enthusiastic about something, they attack it wanting to become awliya1. You leave them for a month, two, or three and before you know it, they leave it all. They leave it all after a while because it is very heavy. Let it not be like that either. Do as much as you can do. Allah showed and ordered you as much as you can do. It is like this in other things too. When you get a job, get a job that you can do. Most people have greed, they say they can do it, they plan like this and like that, and start the job. Then the little that was left in their hand is also lost and they are regretful. And that is as Allah has shown: do not take on work you cannot do. Do not start a business with other people’s money. You would be disgraced and you would harm people. Also, order children as much as they can do. That is why it says to make children start praying slowly at age seven. If they start later, they would not be used to it and it would be hard. They should go gradually, getting used to it slowly. This needs to be something constant. So it should not be done once and left. For them to be able to do continuously, it needs to be done by teaching over and over and getting used to it slowly. However, the most important thing is for
people not to go under a load they cannot bear. Allah is compassionate, Ya Arhamar Rahimin. Allah Azza wa Jalla is the most compassionate among the compassionate. He told us we can do with His favor1, kindness2, and compassion3. Let us do them Inshallah. Do not show excuses as, “No, I cannot pray,” and, “No, I cannot do it.” A person who does not pray should start like a child. After two rakats a day, they should increase two by two. They would be like a normal person within a year. But if they try to do it all at once, of course it would be difficult. If they are enthusiastic, they can do it gradually Inshallah. You should not pass a day without prayer and worship so you know you are human. A person can only be human with worship and Allah’s orders. As long as that is not done, as long as they do not pray, they can be as educated as they like, as knowledgable as they like, or be the world’s most knowledgable person, it is of no use. Some people also say they are making dua, lots of dua, and reading but are not praying namaz4. That does not work either. It is useless as long as you do not read the Koran and pray namaz. May Allah give us all guidance.

227.MAWLID-UN NABI Saturday, December 19, 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 l-awwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Mashayikhina dastoor. Madad ya Sheikh Abdullah Daghistani, Sheikh Muhammad Nazim alHaqqani, madad. Tariqatuna as-sohbah, wa l-khayru fi jam'iyyah.
MashaAllah welcome. You gathered here for the honor of the Prophet (sas). You still continue, you follow the tradition of our Sheikh. Shukur Allah. You came for the holy Mawlid Sharif, for his birthday. Allah for each step, normally when a Muslim is going to a Muslim, Allah forgives one sin for each step. He writes one reward, raises one degree. For a normal Muslim. You are coming for the Prophet (sas), both for visiting the Sheikh and for celebrating the mawlid of our Prophet (sas). You are coming here. Allah knows which rewards He will give, He knows how many degrees He will raise. He is the most Generous One, so you are gaining a lot. You did the best thing, by coming here. InshaAllah, it is barakah both materially and spiritually, no doubt. You'll go back to your country by being enlightened. InshaAllah people there will also be guided to the right way. Your family, children also get from these rewards, surely. So, welcome. May it be blessing inshaAllah. You're welcome, all our brothers, for coming here to celebrate mawlid of Prophet (saw). This is a custom Mawlana Sheikh, he was doing and you are coming to continue this. Alhamdulillah, he is also whole time with us. It is good thing, the best thing to do. The Prophet (saw) saying if any mumin, believer, coming to visit his brother believer, for every step, Allah forgive him for one sin and giving one good deed and making him one degree higher, his degree, station. This is for ordinary people. But you are coming here for sake of Prophet (saw) and for Mawlana Sheikh, to visit him also. This is what Allah, only He know what He will give for you because station of
Prophet (saw) not normal. For [this] he must be given more, thousands, thousands, inshaAllah. So alhamdulillah, Mawlana, he is still looking after us. He calling from every place to continue this, and inshaAllah, when you go back to your home, you will be with present. Allah give baraka for you, for your family, this is one. Other, they give you power also, spiritual power and to make you more stronger believe. And it is the best thing we are looking for in our life. Our life, if we don't have this, we will be like every people. They are worried, they are afraid, they are anxious, they are stressed what will be happened this situation of world. It is very bad, very terrible. Alhamdulillah for believer, it is not important. The most important thing for us if Allah, He is happy with us, if Prophet (saw) happy with us, Mawlana Sheikh happy with us. This is the important thing, other, it is only very small thing. But normal people, very big for them. Very bad for them what happened, what it will happen. It is know, we are only living for Allah and we are coming from Him, going to Him also. This is important, other, it is small detail. It is not important. So alhamdulillah, we are here and inshaAllah, Allah give us from His endless treasure and blessing from Prophet and Mawlana Sheikh inshaAllah. Wa min Allahi tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
228.REAL IMAN Sunday, December 20, 2015.
Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim As-salatu wa s-salamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi l-awwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi Rasulillah, madad ya Mashayikhina dastur. Madad ya Shaykh Abdullah Faizi dDaghistani, madad ya Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani madad, dastur. Tariqatuna as-sohbah, wa lkhayru fi jam'iyyah.
Our Prophet (sas) says: "You will not have real faith (iman) unless you love and desire what I like". This is the meaning of the hadith. A hadith in Arabic should be quoted word by word. When you say it in Turkish, you can give the meaning. But if it is in Arabic, you have to quote it word by word. Completely. What does that mean? It means that Allah created human beings. There is the unrefined ego, all sorts of desires, longings, human beings have everything. Our duty is to slowly train the ego according to Islam and finally, there is a perfect human being.
It was the duty of our Prophet (sas): "I was sent to make you the most perfect human being". "Innama buistu li utammima makarima l- akhlaq". Our Prophet (sas) said that he was sent to teach us the best of manners, the best of character and to make us reach the highest of stations. People really, have all sorts of desires. By training and controlling the ego, by not listening to the ego, we can be as our Prophet (sas) wanted us to be. Slowly the wildness goes away and a perfect human being appears.
So try to adjust your desires towards Allah's orders. Lead your ego in that way. Try to get used to good manners, good deeds. Will you get used to it? Yes, sure, but you can't do it by yourself. Certainly, you should follow a murshid in order to be able to keep good manners and to keep the right way. Once you find a murshid, follow his way. Follow the way of the Prophet (sas). Make your desires, aspirations accordingly. Don't do the opposite.
You stick with a Sheikh but that are a lot of people who try to adjust Allah's orders according to their desires. Don't do that. If you do, you will be wasting your time. No benefit. However, if you follow the good way that Mawlana shows, and follow true faith you may reach the highest stations. But if you use this way for your desires, needs, for
your own benefit, material benefit and worldly pleasures you can't get any result. Your Sheikh won't be happy with you, the Prophet and Allah won't be happy with you. Be careful about that, because Mawlana won't be happy with that. You will be betraying the trust of Mawlana. It is very important.
May Allah protect us. If people go astray because of you, you will have a big responsibility. The sins of those people will be written for you also. So, may Allah protect us. We have to be careful about it. If you shape your desires, aspirations according to Islam and keep the right way, it is possible. So it isn't difficult. You can achieve it. But never try to change Islam according to your own wishes. Crush this ego of yours. Many people are unaware of what they are doing. Some people ask "What have I done?" To such a person we can't say anything. If he doesn't know, no need to tell him. But inshaAllah, we don't allow others to carry his sins.
Prophet (sas) saying "You cannot be real believer until to follow me and to your desire, your what you like, it must be like what I like." This is real iman. Because Allah Azza wa Jalla, He is create people, human being, they are like raw fruit. So slowly, slowly, become better. Become better, or some of them without coming better, they are falling down, or some of them, some illness from inside before growing, just growing seed, it is not so well, and after it fall down.
So it will be like this for every people, except who want to make their desire following the good way, way of Allah, what Prophet (sas) showing us and mashsha'ikh showing us. You can do this. To make your desire, your what you like, many thing, there is two ways. One way for Allah, one way for shaitan. It is two of them open. If you are training yourself and not following what your ego want, what sh

shallah. May our Holy Prophet’s (SAW) shafaat reach Islam in these bad days; may his help and his mercy reach these oppressed people Inshallah. May Muslims win and become victorious Inshallah.

219.THE RAIN OF IMAN Saturday, December 12, 2015.
Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim As-salatu wa s-salamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi l-awwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi Rasulillah, madad ya Mashayikhina, dastoor. Madad ya Shaykh Abdullah Daghistani, Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani, madad.
For the sake of the beautiful face of the Prophet (sas) you can ask for rain. "yustasqa l-ghamamu bi wajhihi l-kareem". For the sake of his (sas) beautiful face ask for rain. This is the month of the Prophet (sas), month of Mawlid. For his barakah, inshaAllah it rains. Because people now don't know if it is summer or winter. If it is not raining, they say "Oh, such lovely weather, it is sunny". When there is no water, they start criticizing the government, this and that. But Allah gave us the biggest favour. He gave us the Prophet (sas) as a blessing and mercy for people. For his (sas) sake, everything, all goodness comes to us. Of course non-believers, people who are out of Islam do not respect the Prophet (sas). They do not respect Islam. They see it and show it in a negative way. They hold a conference about global warming, this and that. Whose fault is this? Of course it is the non-believers' fault. It is the disbelievers’ fault because Allah doesn't show mercy to non-believers. They rebel against Allah, they don't accept Allah's favours. They say everything is by coincidence. They say the world is warming up, this much damage is done. What damages and pollutes the world most is disbelief. "laysa ba'da l-kufru dhanbi" he says. If you are a non-believer, there is no other sin. You have already committed the biggest sin.
They polluted the world, polluted the air, polluted the soil, polluted the sea. "Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim: "Corruption has appeared on land and sea because of [the evil] which men's hands have done"(30:41) They did it with their hands. Our Prophet (sas) is a mercy for the worlds. He says that whoever pollutes the water sometimes is cursed, sometimes it is considered a big sin. If you throw garbage, pollute or contaminate clean water or a river, it is a sin. This is the way that the Prophet (sas) has shown. They don't know this, they don't know this pureness, beauty. Because they are: "the polytheists are unclean"(9:28) The mushrik are unclean. They are not clean. They are not clean themselves, how are they going to keep any place clean? What they eat, drink, is unclean. They contaminate, wherever they go, they pollute.
The way of our Prophet (sas) is a beautiful way. Who follows that way is nice and clean. That's why the saints, the companions are like noor (light), they are clean people. Both inside and outside. Non-believers may appear clean from the outside. Even that is not true. If you walk with him 2 minutes you'll see how he doesn't care about being clean.
They criticize Islam. Islam is not bad. Islam is the best religion. Islam is the last religion. According to Allah it is Islam that is the religion. The Last Prophet, our Master, the most honorable Prophet, Sayyidi l- Mursaleen, highest among all Prophets. Whoever follows him (sas) will never lose here and hereafter. Whatever happens it is for his good. Even if it appears as a loss, it is for his good actually. There is no such thing as "loss or losing" for someone, who follows, respects, honors our Prophet (sas).
This is a beautiful month. Praise him as much as you can. Thanks to Allah as a great blessing to this island they brought the holy relics of the Prophet (sas). They came from India to Istanbul. Thousands of people visited. Tomorrow evening inshaAllah, it will be open for visitors in Hajji Anne Mosque in Lefkosha. There are some people coming from outside but the people on this island if they come, it will be a blessing for them. But still it is a blessing for our island. With Allah's permission. Inside this island, it is full of precious things although there are dirty things on it as well. There are maqams and tombs of the companions. There are more than 1.000 companions, mashayikh, saints. Hajji Anne and Mawlana are here.
So until the end of this world, with Allah's permission the flag of Islam won't fall down on this island. No matter how many people oppose it for the sake of these holy ones, Islam will remain. Mawlana said that they are like the people of Moses (as) saying "Go with your Lord and fight with them. When you win we come". The ones who said this were stuck at one place, they couldn't get out of the desert until they died. Their children went and conquered. InshaAllah, here also the fathers they had negative thoughts, now it is changing with Allah's permission. The new generation inshAllah, will come cleaner. Allah's favor.
If Allah put the companions here, surely they are protecting this place. Thanks to Allah. InshaAllah, for the sake of these holy relics and for the respect of the Prophet (sas) they came all the way here. It should be a blessing. This year there is no rain, inshaAllah for his (sas) sake, rain falls and blessing comes, inshaAllah. InshaAllah, both physically everywhere goes green and most importantly, belief blossoms in the
hearts. With this rain and mercy inshaAllah, young people here come to the right way, inshaAllah it leads them to the right way because this place is very important. With Allah's permission, inshaAllah, it may be a blessing for Anatolia and for the whole world inshaAllah.
We are saying about baraka of Prophet (sas), Allah sending rain. He said "wa yustasqa 'l-ghamam bi wajhihi 'l-kareem". By his lightness and beautiful face of Prophet (sas) Allah sending rain. And we are asking this rain for all of world. InshaAllah, for world because these people, they are saying it has become no rain and everything, weather changing, becoming more hot, becoming flood, everything coming, bad weather. And they are making conference for this. Whole presidents and important people, they are going and trying to do something. But what they will do? They are unbeliever world. There is two kinds of word in this time, believers and non-believers, Muslim and non- Muslim. This is more opened. Non-Muslim, they are not believers. They say 'believers' but they are only looking for they said this science. Just looking for this. And they are asking solution. Solution in Islam. And they are showing Islam as horrible thing. Islam not horrible. Islam the religion of Allah and His messenger Sayyidina Muhammad (saw). And it is ordering clean, to be clean in everything. You must be clean. If you are clean, everything not wrong in this world.
First thing what Prophet (sas) saying to clean yourself, the water, it must be clean. This is first lesson in fiqh, the book of Islamic practicing. First thing, you must look for water, clean water. You cannot put any dirty in water. But water raining, running river, if you put any bad thing in this, Allah curse you, Prophet (sas) curse you and it is big sin. Even this enough to understand Islam, how it is great. And it is from Allah. Because one man put one cup of dirt in this water, other put in other, then finish this river. You cannot drink, you cannot use it. And it is really bad. You cannot do in old time this.
Cleanness for non-Muslim, it is nothing. It is not important at all. Even what they eat, it is dirty. Pork, it is dirty in Islam. Wine, it is also dirty, if it come to your clothes, you must wash your clothes. And they are drinking, eating dirt. So this is what even one part of Islam. They know it is real heavenly religion. Other religion also, Judaism and Christian also good but they are changing too much. It is not like this what Jesus ordered or Sayyidina Musa (as) ordering. They are ordering also clean but they are changing, changing and coming until now. And become like this whole world, like desert.
Yeah, but people, they are not realizing this. "It's only ok, this winter, it is good. No rain, it's sunny days, good days. We are happy". But after when they're not finding water, they are crying, shouting for government, for municipality "Where is water? Where is electricity?" But they are not looking for main. So these people who are making conference and they are against Allah and His rule, they are only losers. They cannot do anything, they cannot fix. Allah give us this world very clean, very green, everything in very good shape, but people, they're doing this in this world. There is ayat also: "zaharal fasadu fil barri wal baḥr bima kasabat āydin nas" (30:41) Corruption has appeared on land and sea because of [the evil] which men's hands have done.
This, what happened, it is from people hand. They do for themselves. What they are doing wrong, they are. Allah not affecting [by] anything. If whole universe it is going to finish, nothing affects Allah, even one part. It is only for benefit of people to follow what Allah give us. This, the biggest favour to be in this time, and, to be followers of Prophet (sas). But people, they are not knowing what they are doing. They finish this world and they make it a terrible place. They are doing for themselves also. Alhamdulillah, nothing affects who are following Prophet (sas). Nothing harm them inshaAllah. And it is big pleasure and favour to us, Allah sent us Prophet (sas). And this our brother coming from India, he bring us amanat, belongings of Prophet (sas) from India, from Delhi, where salateen were living and they were respecting and keeping. Subhanallah, before two months we were there and we visited. Alhamdulillah, now coming here. It is signs of baraka for all this area inshaAllah. They bring to Istanbul. More than maybe 50,000 people, I think, they visit.
It is baraka for this country because they are fighting against all kufr, all world. Some people, they are looking friend, some people looking enemy, but all fighting because they want to finish. But Allah not finish. It is sign, good sign also this belonging of Prophet coming to Istanbul and now coming to this island also. This island is very holy island also, because it is what Prophet (sas) saying "jazeerat-ul khudrah". And he said "I'm seeing Sahaba going and be shaheed in green island". So in this island there is more than thousand Sahaba shaheed. Many of them we don't know. Only maybe ten of them they know, but other, all around the island. So inshaAllah this island, it is holy island. And Mawlana also here, Haji Anne here. So this sign coming also to
bring to Cyprus, these belongings of Prophet (sas). InshaAllah more baraka coming. InshaAllah, we hope rain also will come, inshaAllah with baraka of Prophet (sas). And we are hoping more to rain of iman, of belief to green in our heart and heart of these, our people in this island.
Mawlana, his last sohbats, he was saying, "I wish all this island to be believers." He was saying this. InshaAllah, inshaAllah, it will be. No doubt. The old people, non-believers, they are nearly all of them, gone. InshaAllah new generation, they will be with baraka of Sahaba and Prophet (sas) to make it until Qiyama, Islam island here. Nothing else inshaAllah.

220.THE GREATEST BLESSING Sunday, December 13, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
May Allah be content with you all. Mashallah we prayed the morning (Fajr) and night (Isha) prayers together. Alhamdulillah we have not become amongst the group our Holy Prophet (SAW) mentioned. Why? The sign of the hypocrite1 is not praying the morning and night prayers with the congregation2. Already today’s people, most, do not pray at home either let alone with the jamaat. They do not realize how empty their lives are. When there is no prayer and no azan3, humans go out of humanity. The goal of humankind is Allah. There is no difference from an animal when that is missing. Days pass by, and in the end they come to the presenc of Allah empty handed. Allah Azza wa Jalla gave us great blessings. Thank Allah we are the nation of our Holy Prophet (SAW). It is the month of Mawlid again, may Allah make it good. May Allah make us reach many Mawlids to come. May it be a guidance for Islam, Muslims, and the whole Islamic world. Because the Islamic world is in a state of confusion. When you celebrate the Mawlid of our Holy Prophet (SAW) and honor our Master, some people come out saying you are a mushrik4 and are committing bidat5. Thank Allah it is not so much in Turkey, but that confusion6 exists more outside of Turkey. Allah Azza wa Jalla gave us this blessing and we have to know its vlaue. This is not a measurable worth. All prophets since Adam (Alayhis Salam) would wish to be an individual from the nation of our Holy Prophet (SAW) even if not a prophet. Meaning we are in such a great blessing and people are unaware. Most people are unaware. Let us honor our Holy Prophet (SAW). Honoring our Holy Prophet (SAW) is worship, a great worship. The poet says in the Qasida Burda: “Say all that Christians are saying. Do not call him a ‘god’ but call him everything else.” So he says we should honor him that much. Our Holy Prophet (SAW) is deserving of it.
Thank Allah these people, those who come here, all know the value. However, those outside do not know. They need to be taught and they need to be informed. Madrasas, tekkes, dargahs, zawiyas, and tariqas teach it best. They guide people and inject the love of our Holy Prophet
(SAW) in people. His love is the highest thing. It is worthless if it is missing. You can do as much worship as you like, it is worthless without his shafaat7. It is a dry, unnecessary, and selfish thing. You would be going on the way of Shaitan. There is a Hadith Sharif. Our Holy Propher (SAW) asked Shaitan, “Who is your greatest enemy?” And he did not lie and said, “You!” Who is our Holy Prophet’s enemy? It is Shaitan. The slightest unreasonable word or thaught cannot be for the Holy Prophet (SAW). So those who know the language of the Koran, and know all the hadiths and the Koran yet say, “The Prophet died. He is also like us. It is shirk to honor him!” are fooled by Shaitan. Allah forbid. If we do not know anything, we can be saved by only the love of Hadrat Prophet and the shafaat of Hadrat Prophet. If we know everything and do not honor him, do not show respect towards him, our end would be difficult. Allah forbid. May Allah (JJ) bless this month of ours. It is the blessed month of Mawlid.

221. DO NOT OPPRESS YOURSELVES Monday, December 14, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
Because it is the month of Mawlid, everything in this month is for the love and affection of our Holy Prophet (SAW). To make intention for the month of Mawlid makes a person gain more good deeds and their rewards do not go missing. You need to say it for Hadrat Prophet (SAW).
There is a Hadith Sharif. When giving charity1, you should say you are also giving it for your parents. It says the same good deeds would be written for you and for them. When you are about to offer prayer2 or do an extra prayer3, saying you are doing it for your parents makes you and them gain good deeds.
The treasures of Allah Azza wa Jalla do not finish, do not deplete. Allah (JJ) is generous. So if you say you are giving for Hadrat Prophet (SAW) during this month, Allah (JJ) would also give you from the good deeds He gives our Holy Prophet (SAW). Allah Azza wa Jalla is that generous. Allah (JJ) loves giving to people and He encourages people to do good, to good deeds, and to goodness. People are not aware. Even if they are aware, Shaitan outweighs them. People are ungrateful in the face of so much good.
Allah Azza wa Jalla did not make anything difficult. Difficulty is made by people’s own ego and Shaitan. Allah Azza wa Jalla showed us all kinds of ease and made everything simple. Everything people call hard have come from people’s own ego. The more people make mistakes and commit sins, the more their ego takes control of them. When you do evil, make a mistake, or commit a sin, it says to do good afterwards. It erases it.
It is the hadith of our Holy Prophet (SAW): “When you commit a sin,
immediately follow it with a good deed.” You will do good. How? Even saying “Astaghfirullah” is a good deed. As we said, Allah showed humankind all ease. Allah says he does not wrong anybody on Judgment Day. People are wronging themselves.
“Innash-shirka lathulmun ‘atheem.” (Sura Loqman:13) To associate partners with Allah is a great oppression. Neither evil nor good effects Allah. People oppress (do wrong to) themselves. Allah (JJ) says do not oppress. First, do not oppress your own selves. Do not do evil. Do good.
As we said, this is a blessed month. Always accustom your tongues so you say from the Prophet’s Mawlid Sharif for the love of the Prophet. Whatever you do, get yourselves used to making it also for your parents so it goes to them too. For the sake of this month, may its advice also be continuous Inshallah. Do not fear hardships. Hardships, as we said, come from people’s own selves.
Allah created everything and the fate of everything is obvious. It is the same whether you fear or not, whether you do good or not: your fate will come again. Therefore, there is no hardship Allah willing. We need to be thankful to Allah.

222. ANXIETY Tuesday, December 15, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
May Allah (JJ) make this month of ours (Rabiul Awwal) blessed. This month is the month of our Holy Prophet (SAW) and the month of mawlid1. Honor our Holy Prophet (SAW) during this month. Do not forget. Becasue Shaitan reminds of bad things and makes us forget good things.
What are bad things? Many people have waswasa2. Anxiety is from Shaitan. Speaking of anxiety, obession is also an anxiety. The man gets up to make ablution3 and thinking, “No, it is not done,” stays in making it for half an hour. In fact, many people leave prayer because they could not make ablution due to this anxiety.
Shaitan does not remind good things, but the person who gets anxious needs to do it one time: when waswasa comes while making ablution you should say to Shaitan, “If you don’t like it, you do the ablution.” You will say, “If there is anything else you don’t like, you do it!” They need to remember and say this. Otherwise it will get worse and worse. Allah forbid, it can lead to an illness in the head later.
Allah never gives anybody a burden they cannot bear. A person with an excuse can even make ablution between Zuhr (Noon) and Asr (Afternoon) or after Asr when the azan4 is called. That ablution is good for one time period. They might pass gas or urine might drop. It is not important at all. Meaning Allah showed such ease for people so they do not torture themselves.
The one who tortures is Shaitan. The one who makes it difficult is Shaitan. Otherwise, Allah’s religion is the religion of ease and disposition. It is a religion that fits human disposition and nature. Our religion does not make us doo hard things. Allah has only ordered
what humans can do. He has not ordered anything else. There is no such order to lift 100 kilograms or 150 kilograms. It is however much you can do. Therefore do not torment yourself. Do what Allah orders and that is it. Do not get anxious.
People of these time have become prone to all kinds of anxieties and obessions. Of course, it is comfortable now compared to old times. In the past, when people attempted to do laundry, they would wash by hand for one day. There was a laundry day. But now they throw it in the machine then sit and get anxious: “I wonder why this happened and why that happened? Is this right or not?” Do not be anxious. Our Holy Prophet (SAW) is Rahmatan Lil’alameen, he is merciful. He came with mercy, not to torment anybody. Increase the salawat during this month Inshallah. May our Holy Prophet’s (SAW) himma5 be upon us Inshallah.

223. MAWLID AND CHRISTMAS Wednesday, December 16, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
It is the wisdom of Allah that this year the Mawlid Sharif falls close to what they call Christmas, near the birth of Hadrat Isa1. A difference is made when it is close to each other like this so people may remember. Most people follow Shaitan. Properly speaking, Christmas is not the birth of Hadrat Isa. The birth is another date. They chose this season because it was an empty season, in the middle of winter. In the past, nothing could be done when days were short. Therefore, they made this to be an entertainment. They said, “We have nothing to do and we would be making some trade. This fits us!” and came out with the thing called Christmas. Of course, nobody in the past, the Muslim world had not heard of this deal. Now you see they follow it the most as if it was something better and try doing something. There are those who do it unknowingly, but what is being done is a sin again. May Allah forgive them then. What can we say? Those doing it knowingly are endangering their iman2. What is being done draws the anger and wrath of Allah. Now what does that mean? Everything is in the hands of Allah. You cannot oppose Allah. If you oppose Him, you will suffer punishment both in the world and in the hereafter. This Mawlid Sharif is two days before what they are calling. And this is so people are given a wake up call not to enter this sin, and not to celebrate New Year or Chritmas. I see that some of the people we visit that are called high society, may Allah cause them to think straight, hang decorations on their doors. Where are they learning this? They are learning it from movies. What is poisoning all people anyway are the movies these strangers are making. They show these movies as if they were something good. We went to America during Christmas time in the year ‘95. This much celebration is not even done there. Wherever you go in our Islamic countries, everybody is after celebrating. It passes quietly, calmly, and in a normal fashion there. Our people are trying hard as if it was something important. In the end, it goes away with them being tightened inside, uneasy, without light, and in a troubled
manner. So there is no such thing as “I am happy” or “I freshened up”. It does not happen. Becasue Allah gives both distress and relief. Allah gives tranquility, happiness, and light to His Muslim servant who honors Hadrat Prophet, who loves Hadrat Prophet, respects him, and always does things for the love of Hadrat Prophet. If they do not honor him and go and do what these enemies of Islam do, Allah gives them tightness, their insides darken, and their faces darken. Allah forbid. May Allah give guidance to these people. Do not ever come close to even the slightest things they do. Not the red joker thing they put on their heads nor anything else. They came out with a great deal of things just so it sells. There are no blessings3 in that. On the contrary, you would draw Allah’s anger and wrath over yourself. Do not ever resort to those. Stay away.

224. UMRA Thursday, December 17, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
Following Hajj, Umra has also started today. May Allah bless it. Performing Umra is one of the most virtuous acts of worship. A person visits both the Baytullah1 and our Holy Prophet (SAW).
Our Holy Prophet (SAW) says, “Whoever visits my grave is as if they visited me while I was in this life.” Those blessed places give people a spiritual food. And because it is the month of Mawlid now, more gifts2 are provided by Allah Azza wa Jalla. Those who can should do the Umra.
Some do the Umra before the Hajj. For those who have the money and do the Umra, if possible, meaning if there are no visa or other restrictions, doing the Hajj the same year becomes necessary3 for them. If they do not have that much means, may Allah accept it. It is good to do Umra. What is better than that is of course for those who have not gone to Hajj to go to Hajj.
Some people, may Allah give them a late death, say they would like to visit the Kaaba and Hadrat Prophet’s (SAW) maqam4 before death arrives. They want to go becasue they do not want to die before seeing and visiting those places. That is why Umra is one of the most acceptable worships. Our Holy Prophet (SAW) says inbetween two Umras is like Hajj. It is a very blessed and virtuous worship. May Allah bless it for those who go. Many ikhwan5 went today. May they go and and come back joyfully Inshallah. May their accepted duas reach us too Inshallah. May the Nation of Muhammad6 be victorious, and may Mahdi Alayhis Salam Inshallah come soon. May our Shaykh’s himmat7 be present and his stations be high.

225. MAWLID IS NOT BIDAH Friday, December 18, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
The month of Mawlid is a month that needs to be honored. The greatest blessing Allah (JJ) gave us, we need not forget this, it is a great blessing to be the Nation of our Holy Prophet (SAW). People are in a state of heedlessness, they do not know its value, and they waste it. They wander after other, useless, unbeneficial works and unbeneficial people. Let alone unbeneficial, they wander after harmful people or harmful works. Allah gave us blessings and we do not see the blessings. They think it is somewhat beautiful with paint and what not on the outside, but they do not see the dirt lying underneath. To honor this month is one of the best works we are to do. Are they calling it a bidah1? Now these appeared. So some are not aware of this blessing. However, people are inside this blessing, people who have been created Muslim, in the realm of Ummat Muhammad, but Shaitan wants to put them at loss. They call Mawlid bid’ah. This is also a group that read some books and is coming out supposedly understanding Islam. There, this is what happens when they have no murshid as their leader, when there is no true guide. This way people can see how books alone cannot give benefit. This religion, this humanity, and the whole world were created for our Holy Prophet (SAW). Those of true faith believe in this. For us to believe is within the pillars of iman, but look at the situation that Shaitan is misguiding so many people. They are calling those who honor our Holy Prophet (SAW) and carrying out Allah’s order mushriks2, shirk3. This means the book they are reading is not giving benefit. Books do not give benefit by themselves. They must absolutely follow a beloved servant of Allah, otherwise their situation is not good at all. When a sin is committed unknowingly, a person can repent and Allah may forgive. However, when a sin is committed with insistence, the person suffers its punishment. Not honoring our Holy Prophet (SAW) is a sin, not makruh4 but a sin. Allah Azza wa Jalla says to honor the Hadrat Prophet (SAW), to make salat and salam upon
him, to make dhikr of him, and to visit him. Our Master (SAW) states, “He who visits me at my grave is as if he has visited me while I am alive.” What does this mean? It shows what an important thing and what a high station it is. It is not as what these people say. It is not a bidah or shirk to honor our Holy Prophet (SAW). On the contrary, it is the most virtuous and most rewarded work. Allah Azza wa Jalla says
to make salat and salam.
˚
“InnAllaha wa malaikatahu yusalluna
‘alannabi, ya ayyuhallathina amanu sallu ‘alayhi wa sallimu tasleema.” (Sura Ahzab:56) He says to make salat and salam. Meaning to continuously make salat and salam. When and how much is not told. Honor and make salat and salam as much as you want on our Holy Prophet (SAW), Allah would treat you that much and it would never go to waste. As we said, these people are educated ignorants. They have beomce the toys of Shaitan. Why are we saying this? Supposedly Muslimism has grown. That is why Shaitan is diminishing some things from the inside to misguide Muslims from the way. If you said this in the past, they would laugh at you saying, “How can such a thing be?” They are calling the Mawlid and honoring our Master (SAW) bidah and shirk. However, people these days have gotten used to hearing such things and do not show much of a response. We need to show a response to such people. If there is one punishment for the person who is not a scholar or an uneducated person, there is double the punishment for these people who claim to be scholars. Why? Because they are misguiding themselves and others. He denies it even though he reads. May Allah guide our nation, Inshallah may they not follow these people. Because darkness descends upon those who follow them. What use is it after Allah’s rage descends? No blessings and goodness would be in what they do. Those people do not make Allah (JJ) or the Prophet (SAW) happy, but they make Shaitan happy.
Let people not follow their ego, but let them follow a friend of Allah. The ego and Shaitan fool people. The person who does not have a murshid, a guide for the way, leaves the way and enters danger. However, people who have a mentor, a conselor next to them, go on the right way whether it is day or night, reach where they intend to go, and do not deviate to another place. These people get on the way to find the true Islam and iman, but they immediately deviate from the way. Our Holy Prophet (SAW) says it is a good deed to show the way. It is a sunna to show the way. If someone asks you for directions, you show them the way if you know it and it is the right thing to do. In some countries, if you ask some people the way they tell you the opposite. There are many like that. If people go and ask Shaitan for the way, of course he will show them the opposite way. However, if they
take the road with someone who knows the way, they do not need to ask anybody, they complete the trip in safety, and reach a good place and are comfortable. Otherwise, their whole life passes in fitna5, corruption, and darkness. In the end, even if they save their iman, our Holy Prophet (SAW) will not intercede on their behalf on the Day of Judgement because they do not accept shafaat either. There is such a thing with these guys. They neither accept shafaat nor do they accept other people’s help. They do not accept anything. They think they will save themselves with what they do, and in the end they are regretful but it is too late. Because our Holy Prophet (SAW) does not look at them for what they have done in the world. Our Holy Prophet (SAW) looks at the sinful person, but he does not look at these people. Becasue they have both arrogance and bad manners. Arrogance, being proud of themselves, and all kinds of traits that are not good is with these people. These are rude and rough people. However, sinful people, if they say, “I have committed a sin. Shafaat Ya Rasulallah,” they would gain the intercession of our Holy Prophet (SAW).
“My intercession is for those of great sins from my Nation,” says our Holy Prophet (SAW). But let them be respectful towards our Holy Prophet (SAW). May this month of ours be blessed. Let us honor this month. Let us remind each other of this month. Let us remember our Holy Prophet (SAW) with salat and salam, and make more salat and salam. Let us do the good deeds for the honor of our Holy Prophet (SAW). Let us help the poor and needy for the sake of his Mawlid. If you tell them you are giving for the sake of our Holy Prophet (SAW), they will be happy so they may remember the month of Mawlid next year. Let them be happy that they were treated in the month of the Mawlid. This is also a good thing. Inshallah, may we reach many more Mawlids. May Allah give guidance to these groups, these bad groups. Guidance is from Allah. May Allah give them common sense. Thank Allah, this is the country, Anatolia, with the strongest love towards the Prophet (SAW). Thank Allah we have travelled all over the world. There is much love everywhere, but the other group is like cancer. They are spreading everywhere. Shaitan is spreading it. We do not have many here, thank Allah, but they are a lot in other places. That is why we are saying, “May Allah correct them.” May Allah protect from their evils. You are doing the Mawlid in ease here, you are doing everything, but it is not so easy in other places. When you gather a little too much, they immediately think something else, or there is danger from all sides. May Allah (JJ) send the Islamic world the owner who will take ownership Inshallah. Inshallah, Mahdi Alayhis Salam appears next year so Allah (JJ) saves the Ummat Muhammad. May Allah be satisfied
with you all.

226. AS MUCH AS YOU CAN DO Friday, December 18, 2015.
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Sheykh Abdullah Daghestani, Sheykh Nazim al- Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.
Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajim. Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. “La yukallifullahu nafsan illa wus’aha.” (Sura Baqara:286) Allaz Azza wa Jalla gave humankind as much load as they can bear. They can do that and not be under a load they cannot bear. This applies to everything in every sense. Allah (JJ) already mentioned the worships. They are also as much as you can bear. Do not say you cannot do it! Since Allah created you, He has surely also assessed how much you can do and showed it to you. You can easily do that much. Doing less or saying you cannot do it is lying. Do not do more than you can do. Do as much worship as you can continuously do and let it be constant. Do not do a lot quickly so it does not become too much. It is Allah’s wisdom that when people are enthusiastic about something, they attack it wanting to become awliya1. You leave them for a month, two, or three and before you know it, they leave it all. They leave it all after a while because it is very heavy. Let it not be like that either. Do as much as you can do. Allah showed and ordered you as much as you can do. It is like this in other things too. When you get a job, get a job that you can do. Most people have greed, they say they can do it, they plan like this and like that, and start the job. Then the little that was left in their hand is also lost and they are regretful. And that is as Allah has shown: do not take on work you cannot do. Do not start a business with other people’s money. You would be disgraced and you would harm people. Also, order children as much as they can do. That is why it says to make children start praying slowly at age seven. If they start later, they would not be used to it and it would be hard. They should go gradually, getting used to it slowly. This needs to be something constant. So it should not be done once and left. For them to be able to do continuously, it needs to be done by teaching over and over and getting used to it slowly. However, the most important thing is for
people not to go under a load they cannot bear. Allah is compassionate, Ya Arhamar Rahimin. Allah Azza wa Jalla is the most compassionate among the compassionate. He told us we can do with His favor1, kindness2, and compassion3. Let us do them Inshallah. Do not show excuses as, “No, I cannot pray,” and, “No, I cannot do it.” A person who does not pray should start like a child. After two rakats a day, they should increase two by two. They would be like a normal person within a year. But if they try to do it all at once, of course it would be difficult. If they are enthusiastic, they can do it gradually Inshallah. You should not pass a day without prayer and worship so you know you are human. A person can only be human with worship and Allah’s orders. As long as that is not done, as long as they do not pray, they can be as educated as they like, as knowledgable as they like, or be the world’s most knowledgable person, it is of no use. Some people also say they are making dua, lots of dua, and reading but are not praying namaz4. That does not work either. It is useless as long as you do not read the Koran and pray namaz. May Allah give us all guidance.

It is very bad, very terrible. Alhamdulillah for believer, it is not important. The most important thing for us if Allah, He is happy with us, if Prophet (saw) happy with us, Mawlana Sheikh happy with us. This is the important thing, other, it is only very small thing. But normal people, very big for them. Very bad for them what happened, what it will happen. It is know, we are only living for Allah and we are coming from Him, going to Him also. This is important, other, it is small detail. It is not important. So alhamdulillah, we are here and inshaAllah, Allah give us from His endless treasure and blessing from Prophet and Mawlana Sheikh inshaAllah. Wa min Allahi tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
228.REAL IMAN Sunday, December 20, 2015.
Audhu billahi min ash-shaytani r-rajim Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim As-salatu wa s-salamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidi l-awwalina wa l-akhirin. Madad ya RasulAllah, madad ya Sadati Ashabi Rasulillah, madad ya Mashayikhina dastur. Madad ya Shaykh Abdullah Faizi dDaghistani, madad ya Shaykh Muhammad Nazim al-Haqqani madad, dastur. Tariqatuna as-sohbah, wa lkhayru fi jam'iyyah.
Our Prophet (sas) says: "You will not have real faith (iman) unless you love and desire what I like". This is the meaning of the hadith. A hadith in Arabic should be quoted word by word. When you say it in Turkish, you can give the meaning. But if it is in Arabic, you have to quote it word by word. Completely. What does that mean? It means that Allah created human beings. There is the unrefined ego, all sorts of desires, longings, human beings have everything. Our duty is to slowly train the ego according to Islam and finally, there is a perfect human being.
It was the duty of our Prophet (sas): "I was sent to make you the most perfect human being". "Innama buistu li utammima makarima l- akhlaq". Our Prophet (sas) said that he was sent to teach us the best of manners, the best of character and to make us reach the highest of stations. People really, have all sorts of desires. By training and controlling the ego, by not listening to the ego, we can be as our Prophet (sas) wanted us to be. Slowly the wildness goes away and a perfect human being appears.
So try to adjust your desires towards Allah's orders. Lead your ego in that way. Try to get used to good manners, good deeds. Will you get used to it? Yes, sure, but you can't do it by yourself. Certainly, you should follow a murshid in order to be able to keep good manners and to keep the right way. Once you find a murshid, follow his way. Follow the way of the Prophet (sas). Make your desires, aspirations accordingly. Don't do the opposite.
You stick with a Sheikh but that are a lot of people who try to adjust Allah's orders according to their desires. Don't do that. If you do, you will be wasting your time. No benefit. However, if you follow the good way that Mawlana shows, and follow true faith you may reach the highest stations. But if you use this way for your desires, needs, for
your own benefit, material benefit and worldly pleasures you can't get any result. Your Sheikh won't be happy with you, the Prophet and Allah won't be happy with you. Be careful about that, because Mawlana won't be happy with that. You will be betraying the trust of Mawlana. It is very important.
May Allah protect us. If people go astray because of you, you will have a big responsibility. The sins of those people will be written for you also. So, may Allah protect us. We have to be careful about it. If you shape your desires, aspirations according to Islam and keep the right way, it is possible. So it isn't difficult. You can achieve it. But never try to change Islam according to your own wishes. Crush this ego of yours. Many people are unaware of what they are doing. Some people ask "What have I done?" To such a person we can't say anything. If he doesn't know, no need to tell him. But inshaAllah, we don't allow others to carry his sins.
Prophet (sas) saying "You cannot be real believer until to follow me and to your desire, your what you like, it must be like what I like." This is real iman.
