Suhbah 2016: Maulana Shaykh Mehmet Adil ar-Rabbani (5/25)

anti- christ. After that, not even one nonbeliever will be left on the face of the Earth. All people
will accept Islam. It is impossible for a nonbeliever to survive because it is Allah's promise. Alla Azza wa Jalla will clean the world first. When there is no disbelief left, there will be barakah.
The Earth will be evergreen. There will be rainfall. There will be harvest twice a year. Animals will breed twice a year. There won't be enmity, fighting among people. Lambs will play with the wolves. These are the miracles of Mahdi (as). If anybody claiming to be Mahdi can achieve these, he can say he is Mahdi. Awaited Mahdi, not awaited Mahdi, may Allah bless you, you guided a few people, but that isn't important. This is the situation now. Because of oppression there is no barakah, no blessing, no mercy. There is all kinds of trouble.
InshaAllah when Mahdi (as) appears all will be well. Of course end of time is also approaching. After Mahdi(as), Isa (as) will continue but people after seeing all this goodness, all these miracles, will again be mislead by shaitan. Disbelievers will remain. Doomsday will come on them. For Muslims, a smoke will appear. When they breathe it, they'll pass away immediately. After that doomsday will come. So end of time is approaching, it is close but still, Allah knows when. If Allah doesn't inform nobody can know. Allah knows the unknown. Don't say, "I'm this, I'm that." Everybody should know their limit. InshaAllah they don't claim too much.
Allah Azza wa Jalla, send Nuh (as) for his people. Nuh (as) was [for] 950 year trying to show his people the way of Allah because Allah send him. "You are My messenger, Rasulullah, Nabi’ullah. You must say 'I am the messenger of Allah'. Go and tell your people to accept you and to ask what Allah want us to do" but these people, even not accepting his prophecy. Because he [is] a Prophet and Messenger, he has [a] message also, he is one of Ulul 'Azm, the seven biggest prophet among 124,000 prophet. Seven, they are the highest, strongest. He was one of them and trying. Not easy, 950 years. You can say, "Wow, what is this? If we live 90 year we are very old, how could be this?" Old time. When Allah want something, nobody ask Him, "Why You do this, why You do that?"
When he was passing away, Nuh (as) was 1400 years old. Living long after Adam (as) because, wisdom. People are very few, so Allah make them long life, to [fill] this Earth from people. People, they was running away from him. He, 950 years, without tiring was doing this. At the end he said "O my Lord, what I can do with these people?" I am only running after them, sometimes I invite them quietly, sometime I make big voice to [make] these people understand. Whatever I do, they are not accepting, running away. When I make my voice high to let them to listen what they are doing? They put fingers in their ear to not hear anything from me".
Very few people, they was following him. "They are listening, they are running from me
and they are going to worship idols and they put name for idols also, each one they give a name. And I telling them 'If you come here Allah will forgive you, and Allah He will give you everything. He has the sun and the moon, all this universe for Him. He will send good rain, and make river, and good gardens. Everything, Allah will give you". When prophet saying this, it is a promise. They can get it in dunya. Because he promised them, and he said Allah will give you this, so they can live very good life. But, what they do? They run away from this and they are going after idols. And going after their ego.
So Allah Azza wa Jalla ordered Nuh (as) "You make ship". He was beginning to make ship. After this, these people, more laughing, more and more [at] him, say, "This man, he become crazy. He making ship, there is here no river, no lake, no sea, nothing! Only near mountain, and how he make from this? Nearly 1000 year he's saying this. So, we was right, he don't have any mind". But Allah Azza wa Jalla He make them, all of them, to sink in water and He show what [was] left from them and they was believe for Nuh (as), [he] was right.
Now, these days also like this. Mawlana Sheikh he was 92 years he was trying. Nuh (as) don't want anything from these people. Not ask any money, not ask anything, any help. Mawlana also was like this. He was whole his life trying to bring people to right, to good road, toward Allah Azza wa Jalla. And he was [giving] good tidings because we are in end of time. End of time, it is really difficult time but Allah reward more and more for each, what you do good. What you do, sunnah of Prophet (sas), Allah give you hundred shaheed reward. Turban sunnah, beard sunnah but maybe some people, they cannot do this. There is thousands of sunnah. If you put your right foot to go inside masjid and to go [out] with left foot from masjid, it is sunnah also. There is many sunnah. So Allah reward you for these. And Mawlana he made people from very small things, to know Allah, to love Allah. Not making each small thing not important. It is important . You can grow from beginning, from zero. He was putting this seed for, people and He was giving good tidings for Mahdi (as). Mahdi (as), we are waiting since after Prophet (sas) because Prophet (sas) he said about Mahdi. And he tell about him, "He must be, his name like my name, Muhammad (sas)". And "his father name like my father name, mother name, like my mother name". There is these days, from beginning, many people, some of them, clever people, some of them crazy people, they are saying, "I am Mahdi, I am Mahdi".
Mahdi, what meaning? Meaning who make people to come to right way. Of course, maybe these clever people they can bring some people to right way but they are not what Prophet (sas) telling. He is only one and he has miracle to show people he is Mahdi. Because to make people to come to right way, of course, there's many people, maybe some people can bring one, some of them bring two, some of them bring hundred, some
of them bring thousands, some of them bring millions but he cannot bring all to make what he can do; to make whole world Muslim.
This is a promise of Allah. No kufr. Whole world it must be Muslim in time of Mahdi (as). So, who are claiming this, he must do this. To know Mahdi (as) when Allah gives permission to appear, he will come to Damascus and saying takbir: "Allahu Akbar". But when he said this, whole world, wher[ever] is Muslims, believers, they will be hearing his voice. No need to be near him and they will be coming together. Who is near, around him they will come and make big army and fight anti-christ. And when with Sayyidina Isa (as) he will be together, Sayyidina Isa (as) he will kill anti-christ and after, whole world it will be Islam, Muslim. Allah give barakah in that time because, with nonbeliever it couldn't be whole barakah. When whole world believer, Allah will give barakah because Allah said: "wa ma khalaqtu l-jinna wal insa illa li ya'budun" (51:56)
Allah said, I created people, jinn and human being to worship me, not to work. So when they are worshipping and they are believer, He will give whole barakat for whole world. And it will be raining, nice raining, not like this time, flooding everywhere, destroying. And fruit, vegetables, everything it will be much. Even animal, they will be twice a year, they give birth. It will be like this 40 years until end of time of Isa (as). Even [after] that, they will be becoming again kufr. Because in dunya, must be like this until qiyama. Allah take them by whole, like smoke and only kafir, non believer it will be at the end, near Armageddon.
So, it is end of time and Mawlana he was all time saying this and he promised, and Prophet (sas) saying. This is our belief, we are believe in this, so insha'Allah we will be like Nuh (as), [like those] who was believe for him. We are believe in this and it is end of time but also, we don't know when it will be because Allah knowing the time only. If He tells, okay, but if he doesn't tell we are not knowing. We are waiting insha'Allah, and waiting, it is worship also for us.
Insha'Allah, whole world now boiling. Nothing, nowhere [is] safe. Nowhere, happy, everywhere in world they are anxious, not happy. They are wondering what will happen. Insha'Allah it is near. And Allah make us to reach this good day to be with Mahdi (as) insha'Allah. Real Mahdi, not like who if you be wait Mahdi, people are asking, "Is this Mahdi?" I wish he was Mahdi. There's many people also, every day some coming to me, "I want to speak to you privately. I am Mahdi!"

38.ALLAH CALLS TO THE PLACE OF PEACE (10:25) Saturday, February 6, 2016.
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.
Allah invited us to good places. "Wal-lahu yadʿū ilā dāri l-salām" (10:25)
Allah invites to the Home of Peace. How does He invite? Not a direct invitation, He has messengers, prophets. The last Prophet is our Master (sas), after him (sas), the invitation is carried out. After the Prophet (sas), the Companions also invite to the home of peace, goodness, beauty, contentment. After them, the saints and the mashayikh. Mashayikh and saints are the same. This goes on until the end of the world. Visiting their graves, is as if visiting a piece of Paradise.
The Prophet (sas) says when somebody enters the grave, either it is a garden of Paradise or, a hole in hell. The ones who are with Allah, for them it is a garden of Paradise. Visiting them, visiting the Prophet, he (sas) says, "Whoever goes to Hajj and doesn't visit me, he annoyed me or offends me: "man hajja walam yazurni faqad jafani", that person annoyed me, is rude to me, misbehaved. After our Prophet (sas), you should visit the Companions, wherever they are. It is good and mustahab (desirable) to benefit from those gardens of Paradise. There is no harm, only benefit.
People who don't visit, they are rude people, they don't understand Islam. Why do we come here? Many people come now. Mawlana has moved to the hereafter but his tomb and his holy grave are here. He still attracts people with his power. People from all over the world, from every corner of the world are coming to visit. People who know him and those who don't, all are coming. May Allah accept their visit. They don't send them away empty handed. InshaAllah what they want, their wishes will surely come true. If not, still it isn't empty, in the hereafter it stays with them as a trust, on the Day of Judgement it is passed on to them, it is a means of salvation. So, we should visit the saints, the Companions, the Prophet (sas). No need to even mention that but now there is a nation calling themselves Muslim, they don't even accept visiting the Prophet (sas). No, all of them have great virtue. People benefit both in this
world and the hereafter. Whoever doesn't visit them - not visiting is different but to not accept visiting them, they'll suffer both here and hereafter because they are the beloved servants of Allah. Allah protects His (jj) beloved servants. Whoever is their enemy will surely be punished. May Allah protect us.
Allah Azza wa Jalla He calling people to peace, Place of Peace: "Wal-lahu yadʿū ilā dāri l- salām" (10:25). Of course, Quran have billion, million, thousand meaning. Meaning of this, Jannah, but in dunya also, Allah call you to be in peace. To be in peace it is the best thing. People looking for something and I think it is to be in peace. Inside, inwardly and outside also, around you. So Allah Azza wa Jalla call you to every good thing, He calling all human beings. Not everybody can be called by Him. When somebody [being called] by Him, he is messenger, prophet.
He sent prophets to call people to Peace Place. After the last prophet, Prophet Muhammed (sas), no prophet, but still continuing this calling to peace. After Prophet, by Sahaba. They was also calling people. After them, holy people, the beloved ones for Allah, the mashayikh and murshid, and still continuing this. Their maqam, their graves, Allah Azza wa Jalla make it Paradise.
There is two options for after death. Prophet (sas) said one grave it is garden of Jannah, of Paradise, other, it is hole from hell. [There is] no third one. For normal people, many of people you cannot tell how is his grave. But for Prophet, for Sahaba, for holy people, beloved people for Allah, awliyaullah, mashayikh, all [are a] garden of Jannah. So, when you like to have something from Jannah to go [to and] it is in this world, these maqams. Especially Prophet (sas), because if you went to Hajj and you did not visit Prophet's (sas) place He is not happy with you. "You are tough, you are not good behaved one, you don't have respect," he said, if you don't visit Prophet (sas). So it is very important to visit him.
After him, you visit Sahaba also. Where [there] is no Sahaba maybe you find some holy place, holy awliyaullah, you visit them and you get barakah, you get peace from them. It is a saying from Allah Azza wa Jalla because He said it is Paradise. And these people, they are generous people. When somebody coming to them and ask from Allah by these people, Allah gives them what they ask. For barakah of these people, just beloved people, many things happen.
Some people say we come, we want, we pray, we make dua and we couldn't take what we want. No, this is not real because these people, if not giving here, they hide it for Day of Resurrection. And in this day, you get it and you be more happy than to get it in dunya. So it is, they have still power, more power and they are bringing people from whole around the world. Mawlana Sheikh, people from whole around the world coming.
Who know him, who is not knowing him, still calling and they are coming. And insha'Allah they get barakah.
Alhamdulillah, we are lucky and insha'Allah, whole people believe in this, because there is people who are not believing, not respecting, even Prophet (sas). They say no need to visit, no need to look for these people. When you do this, you are doing bad thing, you are out of religion. No, it is in the centre of religion. We are listening, learning from Prophet (sas) and his hadith, his sayings telling us to respect and to visit these maqams. Allah give us from their barakah, whole time, insha'Allah.
Wa min Allahi Tawfiq, Al Fatiha
39.VISIT THE AWLIYA Sunday, February 7, 2016
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.
Alhamdulillah we went and came back, we paid a visit. Shaykh Mawlana’s (QS) maqam (spiritual station) is full of people from all over the world. The support (himmat) of the awliya (saints) is present, they have a maqam power. Their graves are gardens of paradise, they call whomever they wish and again miracles (karamat) occur.
Some people do not accept awliya and do not accept visiting them. Whereas visiting the graves of the parents is also an order of our Holy Prophet (SAW). Visiting the awliya, the prophets, and the companions (sahaba) strengthens iman (faith). How were the lives of these people? They spent much effort (himmat) in the way of Allah. They never complained even though they suffered torment.
Why did they not complain? Because they knew what they were doing, they knew what a beautiful road they were on. That is why they never complained. Whatever there was from worldly difficulties, worldly troubles, pain, and whatever, it was not a subject of complaint for them. They obeyed Allah’s orders because they knew, and they became an example for people . A complaint leads to another complaint, and the whole time would be spent in vain works. It would lead to saying, “I wish I did it this way and I wish I did it that way.” There is no need to wish. If Allah (JJ) has willed this, has wished this, we need to bow to it (accept it). Those holy ones spent their whole lives in thankfulness and happiness so they could be an example for us. They also became a solution to those who came.
There are certainly great benefits to visiting them. Sometimes people get very depressed and this depression can go all the way to taking pills. When you are depressed, “Visit seven awliya. They would lighten that burden,” said Shaykh Mawlana.
Thank Allah, there are holy ones everywhere. There are holy ones in this country, other countries, and even in countries of unbelief. Because Muslims went everywhere and became martyrs there. Or those places were Islamic countries before, and when Muslims
withdrew from there, those holy ones stayed there. Even nonMuslims also realise the light and himmat of those holy ones and sometimes go to visit them.
This is a great blessing for Muslims. That is why visiting is good. May Allah not decrease from their himmat. May Allah grant us to visit continuously, and may it be lasting. May their himmat be upon us and may their stations be high.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq. Al-Fatiha.
40.DO NOT ACT BASED ON DREAMS Monday, February 8, 2016
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.
People’s minds cannot fathom the things Allah (JJ) created. Allah Azza wa Jalla can create thousands of things in something. The simplest example is we see dreams, go to other worlds, and come back again in the morning.
Dreams are also given to be a good lesson. For example, you could go through great things in the dream then you wake up. “Alhamdulillah it was a dream and not reality,” you say. What if it were real, what could you do? Allah Azza wa Jalla is showing that and there are many lessons. This has its benefits and of course sometimes its harms.
When you see a dream and if it needs to be interpreted, if you absolutely want to, tell it to someone who interprets well. Never tell your dream to someone who would interpret badly, do a bad interpretation! When you don’t tell, nothing would happen Allah willing. People see bad dreams, get affected all day, and try telling to this and that one. There is no need. When you see a bad dream, spit on your left and Allah willing nothing will happen.
What is more important is dreams used to be counted as revelations for prophets. We, normal people, do not have such a qualification. There is no action through dreams if you see a dream and are told to do this and that. Above all, if you attempt to do some things outside of Islamic law1, it is never allowed.
“I saw such in the dream, it is an order for me.” Who are you? You have either gone crazy or you think you are something big that you are saying they said this in the dream and you will do that. Let alone doing it for themselves, they also say to others, “I saw you like this. You will do this!” It is not possible, there is no action based on dreams! This is a rule and an order. As we said, dreams are what are shown by Allah (JJ). Of course Allah shows, but what people do during the day enters their dream most of the time. Work on something all day and certainly something enters your dream from its effects. However, it is not possible to take it as an order, regard it as an order from Allah and tell people, “You will do this and you will do that!”
Of course people see themselves as high sometimes. It becomes a whispering of Shaitan then. He is not doing people good but doing them harm. So interpret dreams but as we said, there is no action based on dreams. This is also an important lesson for people since everybody sees dreams, but some people only live in the world of dreams.
Dreams are a wisdom of Allah, and they show the capability2 of Allah (JJ). As we said, people feel as if they really live through a dream. Allah makes us live everything in a dream, then they are back to normal when people wake up in the morning. َ¸ “Wa huwallathi yatawaffakum billayli, waya’lamu ma jarahtum binnahar.” (Sura An’am:60) Allah is grabbing your soul in the night, takes you back and forth wherever He wills, and in the morning He gives you your old life again and you continue.
That is why we should interpret dreams well. Do not ever tell it to a person who does not interpret well. There is no need. There is no action through dreams either. This is it. May Allah (JJ) give us a good life both in the world and in the hereafter Inshallah. May Allah keep us away from these people Inshallah.

41.EVERY FUTURE IS NEAR Tuesday, February 9, 2016
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.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. “Alaysas subhu biqareeb.” “Wait, the morning is near.” (Sura Hud:81) Time passes quickly. When saying, “Alaysas subhu biqareeb,” Musa Alayhis Salam prayed to Allah Azza wa Jalla to destroy Pharaoh. It is an event that occurred fourty years later. This shows that, “Kullu aatin qareeb,” they say. This is another saying. It means every future is near.
Allah Azza wa Jalla gave a lesson to people through the means of Musa Alayhis Salam referring to fourty years with “Isn’t morning near?” It is a lesson, so do not attempt to do nothing because it is too far [in the future]. Do every good while you have the opportunity in your hands, and put everything to good use. Make use in regards to both the world and the hereafter. Do not leave anything becasue there is still lots of time left. Time passes by quickly. There are wisdoms in these words. You suddenly look and fourty years have passed, fifty years have also passed, and life has passed! As one says, “No, I will go to Hajj in the future, I will pray later,” and, “Later, when I grow up,” one looks and it’s over. You look, you have done nothing yet and life has passed by. You cannot bring it back either.
Allah Azza wa Jalla gave a great lesson through the means of Musa Alayhis Salam. Fourty years passed. Of course, it is not easy for fourty years to pass but it does pass. It passes whether hard or easy. Take advantage of time now. Do every good. “Waf’alul khayr.” (Sura Hajj:77) “Do good.” Do good and do not do evil. Do good and know the value of time. May Allah (JJ) give time productiveness1 too. Because time is also unproductive2 most of the time. But if Allah wants, He can fit a lot in that time period. May Allah be content.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq. Al-Fatiha.
42.THE SHAYKH SAYS THE TRUTH Wednesday, February 10, 2016
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 says, “Ma aradash shaykh.” Those following a shaykh need to do whatever the shaykh says. What is important is the way shown by the shaykh and not what you know. Sometimes they ask things saying, “No, it is like this and it is like that.” The shaykh will say alright, but what really needs to be done is what the shaykh says. Meaning if you have believed in the shaykh, you need to follow the shaykh. Of course there are many who come out claiming to be shaykhs these days. Those following a shaykh that is not real could suffer harm. Its sin would again be on the person who claims to be a shaykh.
The way shown by our Shaykh Mawlana (QS) is to to follow a shaykh. You need to come empty to the shaykh and leave full. Nothing would happen if coming full. They would go their way and leave. Even if saying the truth1 is difficult, it is necessary2 for us, it is obligatory3. It would not be good to say something outside of truth. We need to say whatever the truth is. They say, “La hayaa fiddin.” There is no shame in religion. Do not be ashamed of anybody, and say the truth whoever it may be. That is why we are compelled to say the truth. It should be accepted here. It is not a mandatory place, it is a volunteer place. It is not a place to be holding by force. Those who accept the truth will accept it, and those who do not can do whatever they like, they are free. We cannot manage the tariqa according to anybody’s whims. We need to say whatever the truth is. May Allah (JJ) not misguide us from the truth. May Allah not make anybody follow their ego. Inshallah, may we be with the Haqq.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq. Al-Fatiha.

43. BOTH SPIRITUALITY AND LAW Thursday, February 11, 2016
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 religion of Allah Azza wa Jalla started with Adam Alayhis Salam and continued until our Holy Prophet (SAW). The final religion is the religion of Islam. The law1 of Musa2 Alayhis Salam was very important externally. When Isa3 Alayhis Salam came, he appealed more to spirituality4. Because by then they had turned religion into a dry thing with no regard for spirituality and had changed it.
The Jews changed religion according to their own minds, and in the end such a dry thing was left. So Allah Azza wa Jalla sent Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ would never have regard for these decrees and just looked at the spiritual side. Thank Allah they are both in Islam. There is both spirituality and law in Islam.
There can be no spirituality without sharia. So a person cannot stir up and say, “I regard spirituality. Forget about sharia.” If you say that, you would be deviating from the path and leading people to the wrong path. This comes from laziness. Laziness comes from the ego and from Shaitan. Laziness is a bad illness. Learning is needed and you can ask what you do not know. It is not a shame to ask. They say, “Asking is half of knowledge.”
You will do work, and you will do worship. When you do so, work is also considered worship. You cannot say, “We are only worshipping.” When you do work, it is also considered great worship. It is also worship if you believe in Allah and work to make a living.
As we said, the religion of Islam demands it all together. The sharia of Hadrat Musa said it needed work and service. Spirituality came into prominence with Isa Alayhis Salam. But because the religion of Islam is the last religion, it collected all religions within itself. Not separately, but comprising them all. What needed to be done was shown by Allah (JJ) through Hadrat Prophet (SAW). Doing it is a duty5 and obligatory6. Doing what Allah says is fard. Then there is the sunnat7 and the recommended8 of course. The more people can do them, the more it is of benefit to themselves. Allah (JJ) does not need us. Society would be good if you do it. And when society is good, its goodness would reach you as well.
Instead of sitting in fear amongst bad people, everybody would be comfortable if there was a good and clean society. May Allah grant everybody to practice what the religion of Islam orders Inshallah.

44. THE PERMISSIBLE IS PERMISSIBLE AND THE FORBIDDEN IS FORBIDDEN Friday, 12 February 12, 2016 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 advice of our Holy Prophet (SAW) that we always need to be afraid of Allah (JJ). Never forget Allah. Allah sees you. You cannot hide anywhere, and He knows whatever you are doing. This is a description of iman by our Holy Prophet (SAW). Iman is faith in Allah (JJ). There is no place that Allah does not see. Allah sees everywhere. When people have faith, this stays in their mind, and they calculate everything they are about to do accordingly. Allah has shown the permissible1 and He has shown the forbidden2. There is no damage when doing the halal, because Allah has granted it to us as a favor. It is one thing to leave the halal in ascetism3, and something else to show the halal as haram. Allah (JJ) says not to call things He has made halal as haram. If they are not haram, you can do them. There are things you can eat, drink, and do. If you do them for the sake of Allah, to get stronger in our iman and our worhsip, and to worship, then they are also [considered] worhsip. This is the case with whatever it may be. So you say some things are not possible, but no, it is possible. Allah Azza wa Jalla has assigned them as halal: you can do them. But do not call the permissible forbidden and the forbidden permissible. The thing that is haram is haram. Do not make a fatwa4 on it, and do not have anxiety5 about it. The haram is separate and the halal is separate. You need to fear Allah when committing a haram. Have no doubts inside after using or doing the halal. Allah Azza wa Jalla has shown everything through the means of our Holy Prophet (SAW). Everyhting that is to be done has been done to the slightest detail. Of course, everybody cannot do them, and they need to be a scholar to know them all, but things that are done are clear. Shaitan is the one causing whisperings. Because a certain people
have come out calling the halal haram. And that is as sinful as calling the haram halal. May Allah keep us safe. May Allah make it easy on all of us. Al-Fatiha.

45. PATIENCE AND THANKS Saturday, February 13, 2016
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.
This world is the place of trials. People who believe in Allah (JJ) and believe that everything is from Him, whatever illness or anything that comes, they know it is from Allah and are patient. And Allah gives them their reward. People now ask why a certain thing befell them. It is said “What is done is done/You cannot change what is done and the one who died”. Be patient if something has occurred. Saying it is from Allah and being patient with it causes great rewards and good deeds for that person.
Our Holy Prophet (SAW) says, “It has a reward even if the slightest thing happens, even if a mosquito bites.” This is a kindness of Allah, a favor of Allah in Islam. Nothing goes in vain, not even the smallest thing. That is why we should be patient and wait. We need to glorify1 Allah. If something that is not wanted like a calamity or an illness occurs, it has happened already and we say Alhamdulillah. If Allah grants us good things, we are thankful for them too, as blessings both increase and continue through thankfulness. Thanks be to Allah that we are living in this land of Islam. Thanks be for the blessing of Islam. Thanks be for everything. This time around, people are getting sick from the cold and other things. We need to be thankful for it too, as Allah gives them to us to increase our station and forgive our sins. These are petty things. He gives them to us so we may go to the hereafter clean. Illness is cleanliness. Glory be to Allah for it too.
However, as we said the most important thing, our reason for thankfulness, is His creating us as Muslim. It would have been useless if He had created us as infidel3. Kafirs deserve whatever calamities befall them. Their unbelief has no use for them. Because they do not recognize Allah (JJ) so Allah does not recognize them. He gives them those calamities as a trouble. Allah forbid. May Allah not separate us from iman Inshallah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq. Al-Fatiha.

46. COVER THE FAULTS Saturday, February 13, 2016
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.
Our tariqa requires to follow the shaykh. The shaykh also follows Hadrat Prophet (SAW) and shows people the way shown by him. It is good to revise: tariqa is a way, it is Hadrat Prophet’s (SAW) true way. There are many ways but the true way is one. Following the true way is both obligatory1 and salvation. Following the true way is happiness because it is a safe, blessed2, and a shining road, the road the good are taking. No harm comes from the road taken by the good. Bad people do not come from the good. The bad are people who have lost their way and are going on a crooked way.
Our Holy Prophet (SAW) drew a road on the sand as an example. He drew a line and next to it he drew a fair amount of lines. He said, “People who go on this road will be saved. People who deviate from this road, who go off the road, will be ruined.”
A person can be the world’s wealthiest and the world’s most popular person. He could be the person loved most by devils in the world, but it is worthless if he has gone off the road. He has no standing and he has no benefit. He is of no benefit to himself, so how can he be of benefit to others? He does not benefit but he harms. He has entered the harmful creature category and kind. Harmful creatures are worthless and unnecessary. Allah (JJ) has not created anything unnecessary, but He has created them as trouble, as a trial for people. Those who look up to them and follow them will be ruined. Those who do not follow them, those who know their way is not the right way, do not emulate them, and turn back to Allah are different. Allah might save them in the world, but more than that He has promised them salvation in the hereafter. Allah Azza wa Jalla will give them mansions, palaces, and benedictions3 in paradise for their patience, in return for every patience.
The world4 tries to fool people. Dunya fools people in such a way that people think they will never die and this world will be left for themselves. Whereas, when their time is up they leave even if they are young or they are old. Do not be fooled by the world. Be careful on this way if you are in the way of Allah (JJ). Because the more you fear Allah, the more you will be saved.
Do not trust yourself in this way! Allah is always with me and Allah sees me: continuously be in a state of jihad5 saying, “Let me obey His orders and try not to commit His prohibitions.” Make jihad with your ego6 because your nafs is the greatest enemy
“A’da ‘aduwwika nafsuk allati bayna janbayk,” said our Holy Prophet (SAW). Your ego, this ego within yourself, is the greatest enemy. Struggle with it and do not give it an opportunity. Shaitans are plenty and those who are trying to deviate from the way are plenty.
If you are in tariqa, you need to pay attention to what the shaykh says and continue in the way he shows. Do not look at the faults of others, because our own faults are enough for ourselves. Allah has not created anybody without faults. Everybody has a fault, a defect. Only prophets were created innocent. The only people without faults, defects, and sins are prophets. Excluding them, other people surely have a defect, minor or major. Therefore, let us look at our own faults, when you see people’s fault do not tell their fault explicitly to their face, and do not tell everybody. Allah’s name is Sattar. Cover the faults of others and Allah will cover your defects.
This is also an important thing, because the people of this time have become such that when something little or big happens, they take it as a duty upon themselves to inform everybody about it. This is not a good thing, it is one of the things taught by Shaitan. The person who humiliates people both becomes humiliated and when the fault spreads others also do it and shame is gone. That is why this is not a good attribute. The attribute of Sattar is good.
Cover up. If you cover up, Allah will also cover you and forgive sins you have committed. Because when people commit sin, if they commit it secretly and do not tell anybody about it, Allah would cover it because they have not spread it. Once it is covered, He does not account for it again on the Day of Judgment, He forgives and they go like that.
If not, if they say, “Why should I hide from servants what Allah knows,” then there is punishment for those who commit that sin since he has shown them the way, and there is as much punishment for the person who has shown the sin as the sins of people whom he has shown the way.
May Allah keep our ego safe and grant us to continue in this way. The road is not hard but Shaitan shows it as hard to people. It is a beautiful way, the way of Allah (JJ), and the way of Hadrat Prophet (SAW). May Allah grant people to see this way because the more good people there are, that much baraka and that much mercy descends upon that place.
When people become good people they are at ease, and there is mercy and baraka. The unblessedness of an infidel7 spreads to the whole country. One by one, people are left without peace, no blessing is left, and no love is left. Inshallah this tariqa spreads and the mashayikh8 that teach good manners9 increase Inshallah. May the kafir and Shaitan crack and go to hell.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq. Al-Fatiha.

47.SULTAN ABDUL HAMID KHAN Sunday, February 14, 2016
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.
What have our ancestors said? “Do good and throw it into the sea; if the fish don’t know it, the Creator will.” Our ancestors liked doing good. The meaning of this expression is if the servant (man) does not know the value of a good done then Allah does. People return goodness with ingratitude a lot of the time, meaning they are not thankful. Let alone thankfulness, if a person comes out with dissension, they listen to his words more.
We are saying this for the following reason: It was the 98th anniversary of the passing away of Sultan Abdul Hamid Khan (Rahmatullahi Alayh) one or two days ago. He passed to mercy in 1918. Just as the Europeans were saying they had finished the Ottomans, he held it up for 33 years and in fact turned it into a super power again.
The evil people known as the Union and Progress, they and those like them, dethroned the Sultan. Each one of the Ottoman sultans had the power of a saint, and Sultan Abdul Hamid Khan had the power of seven awliya. The whole Islamic world to the Far East would read the sermon in his name. They still mention him to this day.
They mention his name in the same manner in places we have been to and visited, all the way to the ends of Africa. However, those here have cursed at Sultan Abdul Hamid for years. There is something fishy going on. Those who dethroned Sultan Abdul Hamid and reigned the Empire after him finished it and ruined it.
People have a mind. These ones did not call themselves bad and Sultan Abdul Hamid good. Nobody said the Union and Progress had done anything useful or beneficial [either]. Since they were the wrong men, why have you denigrated the Sultan? This means they are shaitan’s soldiers.
But as we said, Allah knows. Allah (JJ) showed people the reality of the Sultan. Nobody denies Sultan Abdul Hamid. Sometimes you see that even the most unruly people give the Sultan his due right. May Allah be content with these sultans, because being ungrateful is not good. We are content with what they did, and we pray mercy on them: may their place be paradise.
Allah (JJ) will account those who are enemies of Islam. We are not contented with any of what they are doing either. May Allah make us continue with good people because doing good is not easy. People like evil and doing evil more, and do not want to do good much. We need to be thankful when we find good people. Let us be governed by good people Inshallah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq. Al-Fatiha.
48.THE PRAYER OFFERED ON TIME Monday, February 15, 2016
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.
Allah Azza wa Jalla sent a blessing to us Muslims, in fact to all humans. However people do not recognize the value of the blessing1. Thank Allah Azza wa Jalla that He created us Muslim. Let us be thankful for the blessings he gave us.
One of those blessings is prayer (namaz/salaa). Namaz is good and has many benefits. It is a great blessing given for our own good. But nobody knows its worth. People find praying very difficult. Most of the time people leave prayer and become droppers of prayer. Later, if Allah gives them guidance, they try to make up for these.
Of course Allah (JJ) assigned a separate reward for praying in a group, with the congregation2. Prayer has a call to prayer3. There is praying the sunnat4, doing the tasbihat5, and performing the fard6 in a beautiful way. Then there is also praying with laziness. Or there are those whom Allah has not granted and they have never prayed since the start. If Allah gives them guidance later, they try to make up their prayers. Of course, the prayer performed later apparently is not even one in a thousand of the virtue7 of the prayer performed on time with its sunnats and manners8. So leaving a prayer for make up and praying it means leaving so much reward and virtue.
Let us assume they prayed it and made up for it, but there is no make up for the sunnats, they have have missed it already. If you want to pray the sunnat later, it does not count as sunnat, it counts as nafila9 namaz. The sunnat has a few types too, like the sunnat muakkada10 and ghayri-muakkada11. The sunnat of Morning (Sabah) prayer, the first and last sunnat ofNoon (Zuhr) prayer, the last sunnat of Night (Maghrib) prayer, and the last sunnat of Evening (‘Isha) prayer: these are all sunna muakkada, you have to pray them.
Then there are other sunnats. For example, to pray the last sunnat of Noon prayer two rakats is confirmed. We pray this as four rakats, this is unconfirmed. The first sunna of Afternoon (Asr) prayer and the first sunna of Evening prayer are unconfirmed, meaning they are unconfirmed sunnats. But even if these prayers are unconfirmed, they have a much higher rating than the nafila.
That is why people should not take prayer lightly, should not take the sunnats lightly. The fard can be made up like this or like that, but the sunnat has no make up. If you have already missed it, you have missed a great prize.
You might pray it here and there or you might not. We are saying this so that you may gain more rewards, gain more virtues. We recommend this to people who want their hereafter built more. If there are people who do not pray at all, to them we recommend two rakats a day so they may start praying. It is two rakats a day until they get used to it. Once they get used to it, Allah willing those people will also pray the namaz they did not pray and make up the rest.
Namaz is the worship our Holy Prophet (SAW) called “the light of my eyes”. Those who do it would benefit their world. The dua12 of those who do not do it are not accepted. Shaykh Mawlana (QS) used to say even if a dua is made for them, it would not be accepted. Even if a wali13 makes dua for those who do not pray, it would not be accepted. Shaykh Mawlana would say, “I am making dua for you, you should also at least pray two rakats a day.”
May Allah (JJ) make it easy for us to perform this worship Inshallah. May Allah Azza wa Jalla save us from laziness Inshallah.
Wa Minalllah at-Tawfeeq. Al-Fatiha.
49.IN RETURN FOR WHAT IS DONE Tuesday, February 16, 2016
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.
Authu Billahi Minash-shaytanir Rajim. Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim “Faman ya’mal misqala tharratin khayran yarah, waman ya’mal misqala tharratin sharran yarah.” (Sura Zilzal:7-8) (So whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it. And whoever does an atom's weight of evil will see it.) Those who do good surely see it, meaning they see good. It becomes a good for yourself too. And those who do evil, meaning commit sin, and do bad even if as much as an atom, Allah Azza wa Jalla will certainly give its response. It happens in the world and in the hereafter. The person who does good in the world gets along with that good even if he is not rich or healthy. It becomes more of a good in the hereafter, but they also live a good life in the world. They will have gained the consent of Allah and their hereafter is built.
The person who does evil is of no use, neither in the world nor in the hereafter. They suffer the punishment for evil in both sides. So there is no such thing as, “I did evil and got comfortable.” That evil is a fire for them in the hereafter and a fire inside in the world. They do not benefit from anything. Meaning even if he appears successful, wealthy, and powerful, that man neither has peace nor comfort. They think the more they do evil the more they will be happy and find peace, but they cannot find it. Good only comes with good, and evil comes with evil. The more evil you do, the more your burden in

anti- christ. After that, not even one nonbeliever will be left on the face of the Earth. All people
will accept Islam. It is impossible for a nonbeliever to survive because it is Allah's promise. Alla Azza wa Jalla will clean the world first. When there is no disbelief left, there will be barakah.
The Earth will be evergreen. There will be rainfall. There will be harvest twice a year. Animals will breed twice a year. There won't be enmity, fighting among people. Lambs will play with the wolves. These are the miracles of Mahdi (as). If anybody claiming to be Mahdi can achieve these, he can say he is Mahdi. Awaited Mahdi, not awaited Mahdi, may Allah bless you, you guided a few people, but that isn't important. This is the situation now. Because of oppression there is no barakah, no blessing, no mercy. There is all kinds of trouble.
InshaAllah when Mahdi (as) appears all will be well. Of course end of time is also approaching. After Mahdi(as), Isa (as) will continue but people after seeing all this goodness, all these miracles, will again be mislead by shaitan. Disbelievers will remain. Doomsday will come on them. For Muslims, a smoke will appear. When they breathe it, they'll pass away immediately. After that doomsday will come. So end of time is approaching, it is close but still, Allah knows when. If Allah doesn't inform nobody can know. Allah knows the unknown. Don't say, "I'm this, I'm that." Everybody should know their limit. InshaAllah they don't claim too much.
Allah Azza wa Jalla, send Nuh (as) for his people. Nuh (as) was [for] 950 year trying to show his people the way of Allah because Allah send him. "You are My messenger, Rasulullah, Nabi’ullah. You must say 'I am the messenger of Allah'. Go and tell your people to accept you and to ask what Allah want us to do" but these people, even not accepting his prophecy. Because he [is] a Prophet and Messenger, he has [a] message also, he is one of Ulul 'Azm, the seven biggest prophet among 124,000 prophet. Seven, they are the highest, strongest. He was one of them and trying. Not easy, 950 years. You can say, "Wow, what is this? If we live 90 year we are very old, how could be this?" Old time. When Allah want something, nobody ask Him, "Why You do this, why You do that?"
When he was passing away, Nuh (as) was 1400 years old. Living long after Adam (as) because, wisdom. People are very few, so Allah make them long life, to [fill] this Earth from people. People, they was running away from him. He, 950 years, without tiring was doing this. At the end he said "O my Lord, what I can do with these people?" I am only running after them, sometimes I invite them quietly, sometime I make big voice to [make] these people understand. Whatever I do, they are not accepting, running away. When I make my voice high to let them to listen what they are doing? They put fingers in their ear to not hear anything from me".
Very few people, they was following him. "They are listening, they are running from me
and they are going to worship idols and they put name for idols also, each one they give a name. And I telling them 'If you come here Allah will forgive you, and Allah He will give you everything. He has the sun and the moon, all this universe for Him. He will send good rain, and make river, and good gardens. Everything, Allah will give you". When prophet saying this, it is a promise. They can get it in dunya. Because he promised them, and he said Allah will give you this, so they can live very good life. But, what they do? They run away from this and they are going after idols. And going after their ego.
So Allah Azza wa Jalla ordered Nuh (as) "You make ship". He was beginning to make ship. After this, these people, more laughing, more and more [at] him, say, "This man, he become crazy. He making ship, there is here no river, no lake, no sea, nothing! Only near mountain, and how he make from this? Nearly 1000 year he's saying this. So, we was right, he don't have any mind". But Allah Azza wa Jalla He make them, all of them, to sink in water and He show what [was] left from them and they was believe for Nuh (as), [he] was right.
Now, these days also like this. Mawlana Sheikh he was 92 years he was trying. Nuh (as) don't want anything from these people. Not ask any money, not ask anything, any help. Mawlana also was like this. He was whole his life trying to bring people to right, to good road, toward Allah Azza wa Jalla. And he was [giving] good tidings because we are in end of time. End of time, it is really difficult time but Allah reward more and more for each, what you do good. What you do, sunnah of Prophet (sas), Allah give you hundred shaheed reward. Turban sunnah, beard sunnah but maybe some people, they cannot do this. There is thousands of sunnah. If you put your right foot to go inside masjid and to go [out] with left foot from masjid, it is sunnah also. There is many sunnah. So Allah reward you for these. And Mawlana he made people from very small things, to know Allah, to love Allah. Not making each small thing not important. It is important . You can grow from beginning, from zero. He was putting this seed for, people and He was giving good tidings for Mahdi (as). Mahdi (as), we are waiting since after Prophet (sas) because Prophet (sas) he said about Mahdi. And he tell about him, "He must be, his name like my name, Muhammad (sas)". And "his father name like my father name, mother name, like my mother name". There is these days, from beginning, many people, some of them, clever people, some of them crazy people, they are saying, "I am Mahdi, I am Mahdi".
Mahdi, what meaning? Meaning who make people to come to right way. Of course, maybe these clever people they can bring some people to right way but they are not what Prophet (sas) telling. He is only one and he has miracle to show people he is Mahdi. Because to make people to come to right way, of course, there's many people, maybe some people can bring one, some of them bring two, some of them bring hundred, some
of them bring thousands, some of them bring millions but he cannot bring all to make what he can do; to make whole world Muslim.
This is a promise of Allah. No kufr. Whole world it must be Muslim in time of Mahdi (as). So, who are claiming this, he must do this. To know Mahdi (as) when Allah gives permission to appear, he will come to Damascus and saying takbir: "Allahu Akbar". But when he said this, whole world, wher[ever] is Muslims, believers, they will be hearing his voice. No need to be near him and they will be coming together. Who is near, around him they will come and make big army and fight anti-christ. And when with Sayyidina Isa (as) he will be together, Sayyidina Isa (as) he will kill anti-christ and after, whole world it will be Islam, Muslim. Allah give barakah in that time because, with nonbeliever it couldn't be whole barakah. When whole world believer, Allah will give barakah because Allah said: "wa ma khalaqtu l-jinna wal insa illa li ya'budun" (51:56)
Allah said, I created people, jinn and human being to worship me, not to work. So when they are worshipping and they are believer, He will give whole barakat for whole world. And it will be raining, nice raining, not like this time, flooding everywhere, destroying. And fruit, vegetables, everything it will be much. Even animal, they will be twice a year, they give birth. It will be like this 40 years until end of time of Isa (as). Even [after] that, they will be becoming again kufr. Because in dunya, must be like this until qiyama. Allah take them by whole, like smoke and only kafir, non believer it will be at the end, near Armageddon.
So, it is end of time and Mawlana he was all time saying this and he promised, and Prophet (sas) saying. This is our belief, we are believe in this, so insha'Allah we will be like Nuh (as), [like those] who was believe for him. We are believe in this and it is end of time but also, we don't know when it will be because Allah knowing the time only. If He tells, okay, but if he doesn't tell we are not knowing. We are waiting insha'Allah, and waiting, it is worship also for us.
Insha'Allah, whole world now boiling. Nothing, nowhere [is] safe. Nowhere, happy, everywhere in world they are anxious, not happy. They are wondering what will happen. Insha'Allah it is near. And Allah make us to reach this good day to be with Mahdi (as) insha'Allah. Real Mahdi, not like who if you be wait Mahdi, people are asking, "Is this Mahdi?" I wish he was Mahdi. There's many people also, every day some coming to me, "I want to speak to you privately. I am Mahdi!"
Wa min Allahi Tawfiq, Al Fatiha
38.ALLAH CALLS TO THE PLACE OF PEACE (10:25) Saturday, February 6, 2016.
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.
Allah invited us to good places. "Wal-lahu yadʿū ilā dāri l-salām" (10:25)
Allah invites to the Home of Peace. How does He invite? Not a direct invitation, He has messengers, prophets. The last Prophet is our Master (sas), after him (sas), the invitation is carried out. After the Prophet (sas), the Companions also invite to the home of peace, goodness, beauty, contentment. After them, the saints and the mashayikh. Mashayikh and saints are the same. This goes on until the end of the world. Visiting their graves, is as if visiting a piece of Paradise.
The Prophet (sas) says when somebody enters the grave, either it is a garden of Paradise or, a hole in hell. The ones who are with Allah, for them it is a garden of Paradise. Visiting them, visiting the Prophet, he (sas) says, "Whoever goes to Hajj and doesn't visit me, he annoyed me or offends me: "man hajja walam yazurni faqad jafani", that person annoyed me, is rude to me, misbehaved. After our Prophet (sas), you should visit the Companions, wherever they are. It is good and mustahab (desirable) to benefit from those gardens of Paradise. There is no harm, only benefit.
People who don't visit, they are rude people, they don't understand Islam. Why do we come here? Many people come now. Mawlana has moved to the hereafter but his tomb and his holy grave are here. He still attracts people with his power. People from all over the world, from every corner of the world are coming to visit. People who know him and those who don't, all are coming. May Allah accept their visit. They don't send them away empty handed. InshaAllah what they want, their wishes will surely come true. If not, still it isn't empty, in the hereafter it stays with them as a trust, on the Day of Judgement it is passed on to them, it is a means of salvation. So, we should visit the saints, the Companions, the Prophet (sas). No need to even mention that but now there is a nation calling themselves Muslim, they don't even accept visiting the Prophet (sas). No, all of them have great virtue. People benefit both in this
world and the hereafter. Whoever doesn't visit them - not visiting is different but to not accept visiting them, they'll suffer both here and hereafter because they are the beloved servants of Allah. Allah protects His (jj) beloved servants. Whoever is their enemy will surely be punished. May Allah protect us.
Allah Azza wa Jalla He calling people to peace, Place of Peace: "Wal-lahu yadʿū ilā dāri l- salām" (10:25). Of course, Quran have billion, million, thousand meaning. Meaning of this, Jannah, but in dunya also, Allah call you to be in peace. To be in peace it is the best thing. People looking for something and I think it is to be in peace. Inside, inwardly and outside also, around you. So Allah Azza wa Jalla call you to every good thing, He calling all human beings. Not everybody can be called by Him. When somebody [being called] by Him, he is messenger, prophet.
He sent prophets to call people to Peace Place. After the last prophet, Prophet Muhammed (sas), no prophet, but still continuing this calling to peace. After Prophet, by Sahaba. They was also calling people. After them, holy people, the beloved ones for Allah, the mashayikh and murshid, and still continuing this. Their maqam, their graves, Allah Azza wa Jalla make it Paradise.
There is two options for after death. Prophet (sas) said one grave it is garden of Jannah, of Paradise, other, it is hole from hell. [There is] no third one. For normal people, many of people you cannot tell how is his grave. But for Prophet, for Sahaba, for holy people, beloved people for Allah, awliyaullah, mashayikh, all [are a] garden of Jannah. So, when you like to have something from Jannah to go [to and] it is in this world, these maqams. Especially Prophet (sas), because if you went to Hajj and you did not visit Prophet's (sas) place He is not happy with you. "You are tough, you are not good behaved one, you don't have respect," he said, if you don't visit Prophet (sas). So it is very important to visit him.
After him, you visit Sahaba also. Where [there] is no Sahaba maybe you find some holy place, holy awliyaullah, you visit them and you get barakah, you get peace from them. It is a saying from Allah Azza wa Jalla because He said it is Paradise. And these people, they are generous people. When somebody coming to them and ask from Allah by these people, Allah gives them what they ask. For barakah of these people, just beloved people, many things happen.
Some people say we come, we want, we pray, we make dua and we couldn't take what we want. No, this is not real because these people, if not giving here, they hide it for Day of Resurrection. And in this day, you get it and you be more happy than to get it in dunya. So it is, they have still power, more power and they are bringing people from whole around the world. Mawlana Sheikh, people from whole around the world coming.
Who know him, who is not knowing him, still calling and they are coming. And insha'Allah they get barakah.
Alhamdulillah, we are lucky and insha'Allah, whole people believe in this, because there is people who are not believing, not respecting, even Prophet (sas). They say no need to visit, no need to look for these people. When you do this, you are doing bad thing, you are out of religion. No, it is in the centre of religion. We are listening, learning from Prophet (sas) and his hadith, his sayings telling us to respect and to visit these maqams. Allah give us from their barakah, whole time, insha'Allah.
Wa min Allahi Tawfiq, Al Fatiha
39.VISIT THE AWLIYA Sunday, February 7, 2016
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.
Alhamdulillah we went and came back, we paid a visit. Shaykh Mawlana’s (QS) maqam (spiritual station) is full of people from all over the world. The support (himmat) of the awliya (saints) is present, they have a maqam power. Their graves are gardens of paradise, they call whomever they wish and again miracles (karamat) occur.
Some people do not accept awliya and do not accept visiting them. Whereas visiting the graves of the parents is also an order of our Holy Prophet (SAW). Visiting the awliya, the prophets, and the companions (sahaba) strengthens iman (faith). How were the lives of these people? They spent much effort (himmat) in the way of Allah. They never complained even though they suffered torment.
Why did they not complain? Because they knew what they were doing, they knew what a beautiful road they were on. That is why they never complained. Whatever there was from worldly difficulties, worldly troubles, pain, and whatever, it was not a subject of complaint for them. They obeyed Allah’s orders because they knew, and they became an example for people . A complaint leads to another complaint, and the whole time would be spent in vain works. It would lead to saying, “I wish I did it this way and I wish I did it that way.” There is no need to wish. If Allah (JJ) has willed this, has wished this, we need to bow to it (accept it). Those holy ones spent their whole lives in thankfulness and happiness so they could be an example for us. They also became a solution to those who came.
There are certainly great benefits to visiting them. Sometimes people get very depressed and this depression can go all the way to taking pills. When you are depressed, “Visit seven awliya. They would lighten that burden,” said Shaykh Mawlana.
Thank Allah, there are holy ones everywhere. There are holy ones in this country, other countries, and even in countries of unbelief. Because Muslims went everywhere and became martyrs there. Or those places were Islamic countries before, and when Muslims
withdrew from there, those holy ones stayed there. Even nonMuslims also realise the light and himmat of those holy ones and sometimes go to visit them.
This is a great blessing for Muslims. That is why visiting is good. May Allah not decrease from their himmat. May Allah grant us to visit continuously, and may it be lasting. May their himmat be upon us and may their stations be high.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq. Al-Fatiha.
40.DO NOT ACT BASED ON DREAMS Monday, February 8, 2016
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.
People’s minds cannot fathom the things Allah (JJ) created. Allah Azza wa Jalla can create thousands of things in something. The simplest example is we see dreams, go to other worlds, and come back again in the morning.
Dreams are also given to be a good lesson. For example, you could go through great things in the dream then you wake up. “Alhamdulillah it was a dream and not reality,” you say. What if it were real, what could you do? Allah Azza wa Jalla is showing that and there are many lessons. This has its benefits and of course sometimes its harms.
When you see a dream and if it needs to be interpreted, if you absolutely want to, tell it to someone who interprets well. Never tell your dream to someone who would interpret badly, do a bad interpretation! When you don’t tell, nothing would happen Allah willing. People see bad dreams, get affected all day, and try telling to this and that one. There is no need. When you see a bad dream, spit on your left and Allah willing nothing will happen.
What is more important is dreams used to be counted as revelations for prophets. We, normal people, do not have such a qualification. There is no action through dreams if you see a dream and are told to do this and that. Above all, if you attempt to do some things outside of Islamic law1, it is never allowed.
“I saw such in the dream, it is an order for me.” Who are you? You have either gone crazy or you think you are something big that you are saying they said this in the dream and you will do that. Let alone doing it for themselves, they also say to others, “I saw you like this. You will do this!” It is not possible, there is no action based on dreams! This is a rule and an order. As we said, dreams are what are shown by Allah (JJ). Of course Allah shows, but what people do during the day enters their dream most of the time. Work on something all day and certainly something enters your dream from its effects. However, it is not possible to take it as an order, regard it as an order from Allah and tell people, “You will do this and you will do that!”
Of course people see themselves as high sometimes. It becomes a whispering of Shaitan then. He is not doing people good but doing them harm. So interpret dreams but as we said, there is no action based on dreams. This is also an important lesson for people since everybody sees dreams, but some people only live in the world of dreams.
Dreams are a wisdom of Allah, and they show the capability2 of Allah (JJ). As we said, people feel as if they really live through a dream. Allah makes us live everything in a dream, then they are back to normal when people wake up in the morning. َ¸ “Wa huwallathi yatawaffakum billayli, waya’lamu ma jarahtum binnahar.” (Sura An’am:60) Allah is grabbing your soul in the night, takes you back and forth wherever He wills, and in the morning He gives you your old life again and you continue.
That is why we should interpret dreams well. Do not ever tell it to a person who does not interpret well. There is no need. There is no action through dreams either. This is it. May Allah (JJ) give us a good life both in the world and in the hereafter Inshallah. May Allah keep us away from these people Inshallah.

41.EVERY FUTURE IS NEAR Tuesday, February 9, 2016
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.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. “Alaysas subhu biqareeb.” “Wait, the morning is near.” (Sura Hud:81) Time passes quickly. When saying, “Alaysas subhu biqareeb,” Musa Alayhis Salam prayed to Allah Azza wa Jalla to destroy Pharaoh. It is an event that occurred fourty years later. This shows that, “Kullu aatin qareeb,” they say. This is another saying. It means every future is near.
Allah Azza wa Jalla gave a lesson to people through the means of Musa Alayhis Salam referring to fourty years with “Isn’t morning near?” It is a lesson, so do not attempt to do nothing because it is too far [in the future]. Do every good while you have the opportunity in your hands, and put everything to good use. Make use in regards to both the world and the hereafter. Do not leave anything becasue there is still lots of time left. Time passes by quickly. There are wisdoms in these words. You suddenly look and fourty years have passed, fifty years have also passed, and life has passed! As one says, “No, I will go to Hajj in the future, I will pray later,” and, “Later, when I grow up,” one looks and it’s over. You look, you have done nothing yet and life has passed by. You cannot bring it back either.
Allah Azza wa Jalla gave a great lesson through the means of Musa Alayhis Salam. Fourty years passed. Of course, it is not easy for fourty years to pass but it does pass. It passes whether hard or easy. Take advantage of time now. Do every good. “Waf’alul khayr.” (Sura Hajj:77) “Do good.” Do good and do not do evil. Do good and know the value of time. May Allah (JJ) give time productiveness1 too. Because time is also unproductive2 most of the time. But if Allah wants, He can fit a lot in that time period. May Allah be content.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq. Al-Fatiha.
42.THE SHAYKH SAYS THE TRUTH Wednesday, February 10, 2016
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 says, “Ma aradash shaykh.” Those following a shaykh need to do whatever the shaykh says. What is important is the way shown by the shaykh and not what you know. Sometimes they ask things saying, “No, it is like this and it is like that.” The shaykh will say alright, but what really needs to be done is what the shaykh says. Meaning if you have believed in the shaykh, you need to follow the shaykh. Of course there are many who come out claiming to be shaykhs these days. Those following a shaykh that is not real could suffer harm. Its sin would again be on the person who claims to be a shaykh.
The way shown by our Shaykh Mawlana (QS) is to to follow a shaykh. You need to come empty to the shaykh and leave full. Nothing would happen if coming full. They would go their way and leave. Even if saying the truth1 is difficult, it is necessary2 for us, it is obligatory3. It would not be good to say something outside of truth. We need to say whatever the truth is. They say, “La hayaa fiddin.” There is no shame in religion. Do not be ashamed of anybody, and say the truth whoever it may be. That is why we are compelled to say the truth. It should be accepted here. It is not a mandatory place, it is a volunteer place. It is not a place to be holding by force. Those who accept the truth will accept it, and those who do not can do whatever they like, they are free. We cannot manage the tariqa according to anybody’s whims. We need to say whatever the truth is. May Allah (JJ) not misguide us from the truth. May Allah not make anybody follow their ego. Inshallah, may we be with the Haqq.

43. BOTH SPIRITUALITY AND LAW Thursday, February 11, 2016
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 religion of Allah Azza wa Jalla started with Adam Alayhis Salam and continued until our Holy Prophet (SAW). The final religion is the religion of Islam. The law1 of Musa2 Alayhis Salam was very important externally. When Isa3 Alayhis Salam came, he appealed more to spirituality4. Because by then they had turned religion into a dry thing with no regard for spirituality and had changed it.
The Jews changed religion according to their own minds, and in the end such a dry thing was left. So Allah Azza wa Jalla sent Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ would never have regard for these decrees and just looked at the spiritual side. Thank Allah they are both in Islam. There is both spirituality and law in Islam.
There can be no spirituality without sharia. So a person cannot stir up and say, “I regard spirituality. Forget about sharia.” If you say that, you would be deviating from the path and leading people to the wrong path. This comes from laziness. Laziness comes from the ego and from Shaitan. Laziness is a bad illness. Learning is needed and you can ask what you do not know. It is not a shame to ask. They say, “Asking is half of knowledge.”
You will do work, and you will do worship. When you do so, work is also considered worship. You cannot say, “We are only worshipping.” When you do work, it is also considered great worship. It is also worship if you believe in Allah and work to make a living.
As we said, the religion of Islam demands it all together. The sharia of Hadrat Musa said it needed work and service. Spirituality came into prominence with Isa Alayhis Salam. But because the religion of Islam is the last religion, it collected all religions within itself. Not separately, but comprising them all. What needed to be done was shown by Allah (JJ) through Hadrat Prophet (SAW). Doing it is a duty5 and obligatory6. Doing what Allah says is fard. Then there is the sunnat7 and the recommended8 of course. The more people can do them, the more it is of benefit to themselves. Allah (JJ) does not need us. Society would be good if you do it. And when society is good, its goodness would reach you as well.
Instead of sitting in fear amongst bad people, everybody would be comfortable if there was a good and clean society. May Allah grant everybody to practice what the religion of Islam orders Inshallah.

44. THE PERMISSIBLE IS PERMISSIBLE AND THE FORBIDDEN IS FORBIDDEN Friday, 12 February 12, 2016 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 advice of our Holy Prophet (SAW) that we always need to be afraid of Allah (JJ). Never forget Allah. Allah sees you. You cannot hide anywhere, and He knows whatever you are doing. This is a description of iman by our Holy Prophet (SAW). Iman is faith in Allah (JJ). There is no place that Allah does not see. Allah sees everywhere. When people have faith, this stays in their mind, and they calculate everything they are about to do accordingly. Allah has shown the permissible1 and He has shown the forbidden2. There is no damage when doing the halal, because Allah has granted it to us as a favor. It is one thing to leave the halal in ascetism3, and something else to show the halal as haram. Allah (JJ) says not to call things He has made halal as haram. If they are not haram, you can do them. There are things you can eat, drink, and do. If you do them for the sake of Allah, to get stronger in our iman and our worhsip, and to worship, then they are also [considered] worhsip. This is the case with whatever it may be. So you say some things are not possible, but no, it is possible. Allah Azza wa Jalla has assigned them as halal: you can do them. But do not call the permissible forbidden and the forbidden permissible. The thing that is haram is haram. Do not make a fatwa4 on it, and do not have anxiety5 about it. The haram is separate and the halal is separate. You need to fear Allah when committing a haram. Have no doubts inside after using or doing the halal. Allah Azza wa Jalla has shown everything through the means of our Holy Prophet (SAW). Everyhting that is to be done has been done to the slightest detail. Of course, everybody cannot do them, and they need to be a scholar to know them all, but things that are done are clear. Shaitan is the one causing whisperings. Because a certain people
have come out calling the halal haram. And that is as sinful as calling the haram halal. May Allah keep us safe. May Allah make it easy on all of us. Al-Fatiha.

45. PATIENCE AND THANKS Saturday, February 13, 2016
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.
This world is the place of trials. People who believe in Allah (JJ) and believe that everything is from Him, whatever illness or anything that comes, they know it is from Allah and are patient. And Allah gives them their reward. People now ask why a certain thing befell them. It is said “What is done is done/You cannot change what is done and the one who died”. Be patient if something has occurred. Saying it is from Allah and being patient with it causes great rewards and good deeds for that person.
Our Holy Prophet (SAW) says, “It has a reward even if the slightest thing happens, even if a mosquito bites.” This is a kindness of Allah, a favor of Allah in Islam. Nothing goes in vain, not even the smallest thing. That is why we should be patient and wait. We need to glorify1 Allah. If something that is not wanted like a calamity or an illness occurs, it has happened already and we say Alhamdulillah. If Allah grants us good things, we are thankful for them too, as blessings both increase and continue through thankfulness. Thanks be to Allah that we are living in this land of Islam. Thanks be for the blessing of Islam. Thanks be for everything. This time around, people are getting sick from the cold and other things. We need to be thankful for it too, as Allah gives them to us to increase our station and forgive our sins. These are petty things. He gives them to us so we may go to the hereafter clean. Illness is cleanliness. Glory be to Allah for it too.
However, as we said the most important thing, our reason for thankfulness, is His creating us as Muslim. It would have been useless if He had created us as infidel3. Kafirs deserve whatever calamities befall them. Their unbelief has no use for them. Because they do not recognize Allah (JJ) so Allah does not recognize them. He gives them those calamities as a trouble. Allah forbid. May Allah not separate us from iman Inshallah.

46. COVER THE FAULTS Saturday, February 13, 2016
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.
Our tariqa requires to follow the shaykh. The shaykh also follows Hadrat Prophet (SAW) and shows people the way shown by him. It is good to revise: tariqa is a way, it is Hadrat Prophet’s (SAW) true way. There are many ways but the true way is one. Following the true way is both obligatory1 and salvation. Following the true way is happiness because it is a safe, blessed2, and a shining road, the road the good are taking. No harm comes from the road taken by the good. Bad people do not come from the good. The bad are people who have lost their way and are going on a crooked way.
Our Holy Prophet (SAW) drew a road on the sand as an example. He drew a line and next to it he drew a fair amount of lines. He said, “People who go on this road will be saved. People who deviate from this road, who go off the road, will be ruined.”
A person can be the world’s wealthiest and the world’s most popular person. He could be the person loved most by devils in the world, but it is worthless if he has gone off the road. He has no standing and he has no benefit. He is of no benefit to himself, so how can he be of benefit to others? He does not benefit but he harms. He has entered the harmful creature category and kind. Harmful creatures are worthless and unnecessary. Allah (JJ) has not created anything unnecessary, but He has created them as trouble, as a trial for people. Those who look up to them and follow them will be ruined. Those who do not follow them, those who know their way is not the right way, do not emulate them, and turn back to Allah are different. Allah might save them in the world, but more than that He has promised them salvation in the hereafter. Allah Azza wa Jalla will give them mansions, palaces, and benedictions3 in paradise for their patience, in return for every patience.
The world4 tries to fool people. Dunya fools people in such a way that people think they will never die and this world will be left for themselves. Whereas, when their time is up they leave even if they are young or they are old. Do not be fooled by the world. Be careful on this way if you are in the way of Allah (JJ). Because the more you fear Allah, the more you will be saved.
Do not trust yourself in this way! Allah is always with me and Allah sees me: continuously be in a state of jihad5 saying, “Let me obey His orders and try not to commit His prohibitions.” Make jihad with your ego6 because your nafs is the greatest enemy
“A’da ‘aduwwika nafsuk allati bayna janbayk,” said our Holy Prophet (SAW). Your ego, this ego within yourself, is the greatest enemy. Struggle with it and do not give it an opportunity. Shaitans are plenty and those who are trying to deviate from the way are plenty.
If you are in tariqa, you need to pay attention to what the shaykh says and continue in the way he shows. Do not look at the faults of others, because our own faults are enough for ourselves. Allah has not created anybody without faults. Everybody has a fault, a defect. Only prophets were created innocent. The only people without faults, defects, and sins are prophets. Excluding them, other people surely have a defect, minor or major. Therefore, let us look at our own faults, when you see people’s fault do not tell their fault explicitly to their face, and do not tell everybody. Allah’s name is Sattar. Cover the faults of others and Allah will cover your defects.
This is also an important thing, because the people of this time have become such that when something little or big happens, they take it as a duty upon themselves to inform everybody about it. This is not a good thing, it is one of the things taught by Shaitan. The person who humiliates people both becomes humiliated and when the fault spreads others also do it and shame is gone. That is why this is not a good attribute. The attribute of Sattar is good.
Cover up. If you cover up, Allah will also cover you and forgive sins you have committed. Because when people commit sin, if they commit it secretly and do not tell anybody about it, Allah would cover it because they have not spread it. Once it is covered, He does not account for it again on the Day of Judgment, He forgives and they go like that.
If not, if they say, “Why should I hide from servants what Allah knows,” then there is punishment for those who commit that sin since he has shown them the way, and there is as much punishment for the person who has shown the sin as the sins of people whom he has shown the way.
May Allah keep our ego safe and grant us to continue in this way. The road is not hard but Shaitan shows it as hard to people. It is a beautiful way, the way of Allah (JJ), and the way of Hadrat Prophet (SAW). May Allah grant people to see this way because the more good people there are, that much baraka and that much mercy descends upon that place.
When people become good people they are at ease, and there is mercy and baraka. The unblessedness of an infidel7 spreads to the whole country. One by one, people are left without peace, no blessing is left, and no love is left. Inshallah this tariqa spreads and the mashayikh8 that teach good manners9 increase Inshallah. May the kafir and Shaitan crack and go to hell.

47.SULTAN ABDUL HAMID KHAN Sunday, February 14, 2016
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.
What have our ancestors said? “Do good and throw it into the sea; if the fish don’t know it, the Creator will.” Our ancestors liked doing good. The meaning of this expression is if the servant (man) does not know the value of a good done then Allah does. People return goodness with ingratitude a lot of the time, meaning they are not thankful. Let alone thankfulness, if a person comes out with dissension, they listen to his words more.
We are saying this for the following reason: It was the 98th anniversary of the passing away of Sultan Abdul Hamid Khan (Rahmatullahi Alayh) one or two days ago. He passed to mercy in 1918. Just as the Europeans were saying they had finished the Ottomans, he held it up for 33 years and in fact turned it into a super power again.
The evil people known as the Union and Progress, they and those like them, dethroned the Sultan. Each one of the Ottoman sultans had the power of a saint, and Sultan Abdul Hamid Khan had the power of seven awliya. The whole Islamic world to the Far East would read the sermon in his name. They still mention him to this day.
They mention his name in the same manner in places we have been to and visited, all the way to the ends of Africa. However, those here have cursed at Sultan Abdul Hamid for years. There is something fishy going on. Those who dethroned Sultan Abdul Hamid and reigned the Empire after him finished it and ruined it.
People have a mind. These ones did not call themselves bad and Sultan Abdul Hamid good. Nobody said the Union and Progress had done anything useful or beneficial [either]. Since they were the wrong men, why have you denigrated the Sultan? This means they are shaitan’s soldiers.
But as we said, Allah knows. Allah (JJ) showed people the reality of the Sultan. Nobody denies Sultan Abdul Hamid. Sometimes you see that even the most unruly people give the Sultan his due right. May Allah be content with these sultans, because being ungrateful is not good. We are content with what they did, and we pray mercy on them: may their place be paradise.
Allah (JJ) will account those who are enemies of Islam. We are not contented with any of what they are doing either. May Allah make us continue with good people because doing good is not easy. People like evil and doing evil more, and do not want to do good much. We need to be thankful when we find good people. Let us be governed by good people Inshallah.

48.THE PRAYER OFFERED ON TIME Monday, February 15, 2016
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.
Allah Azza wa Jalla sent a blessing to us Muslims, in fact to all humans. However people do not recognize the value of the blessing1. Thank Allah Azza wa Jalla that He created us Muslim. Let us be thankful for the blessings he gave us.
One of those blessings is prayer (namaz/salaa). Namaz is good and has many benefits. It is a great blessing given for our own good. But nobody knows its worth. People find praying very difficult. Most of the time people leave prayer and become droppers of prayer. Later, if Allah gives them guidance, they try to make up for these.
Of course Allah (JJ) assigned a separate reward for praying in a group, with the congregation2. Prayer has a call to prayer3. There is praying the sunnat4, doing the tasbihat5, and performing the fard6 in a beautiful way. Then there is also praying with laziness. Or there are those whom Allah has not granted and they have never prayed since the start. If Allah gives them guidance later, they try to make up their prayers. Of course, the prayer performed later apparently is not even one in a thousand of the virtue7 of the prayer performed on time with its sunnats and manners8. So leaving a prayer for make up and praying it means leaving so much reward and virtue.
Let us assume they prayed it and made up for it, but there is no make up for the sunnats, they have have missed it already. If you want to pray the sunnat later, it does not count as sunnat, it counts as nafila9 namaz. The sunnat has a few types too, like the sunnat muakkada10 and ghayri-muakkada11. The sunnat of Morning (Sabah) prayer, the first and last sunnat ofNoon (Zuhr) prayer, the last sunnat of Night (Maghrib) prayer, and the last sunnat of Evening (‘Isha) prayer: these are all sunna muakkada, you have to pray them.
Then there are other sunnats. For example, to pray the last sunnat of Noon prayer two rakats is confirmed. We pray this as four rakats, this is unconfirmed. The first sunna of Afternoon (Asr) prayer and the first sunna of Evening prayer are unconfirmed, meaning they are unconfirmed sunnats. But even if these prayers are unconfirmed, they have a much higher rating than the nafila.
That is why people should not take prayer lightly, should not take the sunnats lightly. The fard can be made up like this or like that, but the sunnat has no make up. If you have already missed it, you have missed a great prize.
You might pray it here and there or you might not. We are saying this so that you may gain more rewards, gain more virtues. We recommend this to people who want their hereafter built more. If there are people who do not pray at all, to them we recommend two rakats a day so they may start praying. It is two rakats a day until they get used to it. Once they get used to it, Allah willing those people will also pray the namaz they did not pray and make up the rest.
Namaz is the worship our Holy Prophet (SAW) called “the light of my eyes”. Those who do it would benefit their world. The dua12 of those who do not do it are not accepted. Shaykh Mawlana (QS) used to say even if a dua is made for them, it would not be accepted. Even if a wali13 makes dua for those who do not pray, it would not be accepted. Shaykh Mawlana would say, “I am making dua for you, you should also at least pray two rakats a day.”
May Allah (JJ) make it easy for us to perform this worship Inshallah. May Allah Azza wa Jalla save us from laziness Inshallah.
Wa Minalllah at-Tawfeeq. Al-Fatiha.

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.
Authu Billahi Minash-shaytanir Rajim. Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim “Faman ya’mal misqala tharratin khayran yarah, waman ya’mal misqala tharratin sharran yarah.” (Sura Zilzal:7-8) (So whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it. And whoever does an atom's weight of evil will see it.) Those who do good surely see it, meaning they see good. It becomes a good for yourself too. And those who do evil, meaning commit sin, and do bad even if as much as an atom, Allah Azza wa Jalla will certainly give its response. It happens in the world and in the hereafter. The person who does good in the world gets along with that good even if he is not rich or healthy. It becomes more of a good in the hereafter, but they also live a good life in the world. They will have gained the consent of Allah and their hereafter is built.
The person who does evil is of no use, neither in the world nor in the hereafter. They suffer the punishment for evil in both sides. So there is no such thing as, “I did evil and got comfortable.” That evil is a fire for them in the hereafter and a fire inside in the world. They do not benefit from anything. Meaning even if he appears successful, wealthy, and powerful, that man neither has peace nor comfort. They think the more they do evil the more they will be happy and find peace, but they cannot find it. Good only comes with good, and evil comes with evil. The more evil you do, the more your burden in
