His words are words of wisdom and light for all of us on this path. Alhamdulilah he has been traveling all over attending to murids and spreading the light of the Naqshbandi tariqa from east to west.Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya. Our way is the way of associations and the goodness is in being together. As Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad (Mehmet) travels he spreads the teachings of the Naqshbandi Grand Shaykhs. His words are as per the needs of the audience. Every soul is fed as per its apetite and its needs. These words of wisdom are recorded and are then distributed among murids an non murids all over the world, in various forms. This book is one of the forms his words are reaching to you.Please feel free to forward this book to as many people as you wish, in its full form (without changing anything) as it does not have any copyright on it. We intend to keep these books free of cost always. May Allah SWT make it easy and accept our weak services. Aameen. Al-Fatiha.
II.FOREWORD
Auzubillahi minash shaitanir rajeem Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem
Allahumma Salliala Sayyidina Muhammadin wa alaa Aali Sayyidina Muhammadin wa Sallim
As salaamwalekum wa Rehmatullahi taala wa Barakaatu
Madad Ya Sayyidi Ya Murshidi Sultan ul Awlia Maulana Shaykh Nazim QS. Madad Ya Sayyidi Ya Murshidi Sultan ul Awlia Maulana Shaykh Mehmet QS.
You may have noticed that most of the Malfoozat of Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Aadil Ar Rabbani have common Introduction, Foreword and Aknowledgement. There is certain information which needs to be repeated and must reach the readers in every book.
Also important to know is that these books are not for us to share our views, but for us to make sure Mawlana's words reach to every corner of this world.
At the same time we recomend that you make sure to read these sections as well in every book as a reminder for ourselves.
This book is a compendium of sohbets or spiritual discourses, of the year 2019, of our Master and teacher of millions and worldwide leader of the Naqshbandiya Aaliya Sufi Order, Maulana Shaykh Muhammad Aadil Ar Rabbani QS, may Allah SWT grant him good health and long life – Aameen.
These sohbas are easily available in video format on www.saltanat.org & www.hakkanitv.org. We are trying to make it easy for the followers to find a medium that suits them to receive these teachings. Therefore the sohbas of this book is available in 3 formats:
1.Videos 2.PDF copy 3.Hard copy
Please pick the format that suits you and get enlightened with the words and teachings of our Master. May Allah SWT bless us with good understanding and the tawfeeq to act upon these teachings – Aameen.
If any of the readers would like to translate this book or the series of these books to any other language, please seek Maulana Shaykh Muhammad’s permission. Please do not translate without his permission. If you are unable to reach him directly, you may write to me and in sha Allah I shall seek try to permission for you.
Alhamdulilah we are blessed that Maulana Shaykh Muhammad QS, the head of the Naqshbandiya Aaliya Sufi Order has blessed us and allowed us to work on these books, year after year. We have already completed and released 4 books, before this one, ie; 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. These books are available in both soft & hard formats through our website www.naqshbandiindia.com. Soon this book of sohbas of 2018 shall be available in both soft & hard formats. There are various teams involved in the making of these books (series of books). It is a process of service that teams of murids are offering right from the AV team, to the transcripting team, to the compiling team, to the printing and then the distribution team. I am greatful to each and everyone involded in the making of the previous books and this one too. May Allah SWT reward all with khair here and hereafter – Aameen.
We have a few advise for the readers to make the reading process more beneficial. Our advise is simple, read only until you can stay focused. These sohbas / lectures are words of a saint of Allah SWT. If we lose focus and lose focus on a few lines in between while reading the meaning of the message may be changed.
In other words, the teachings of the Shaykh may be misunderstood. Also try to keep a highlighter handy, and / or use sticky notes, so you can highlight topics, or sentences which you would like to refer in the future. The lectures are transcripted and are in the exact form as Maulana Mehmet speaks.
Another advise is that when ever you read the name Allah, please say Jalla Jalaaluhu or Subhana Wa Ta’aala along with it. When you read Prophet Muhammads Name, please make sure to say Sal lal laa hu alaihi wa sallam. When you come across Sahaba Names, please say Radi Allahu Anhu and when you come across Maulana Shaykh Nazim or other Awlia names, please say Qaddas Allahu Sirrahu.
May Allah SWT bless the one who reads this book, with good understanding and hidaya to act upon these teahcings of our Master – Aameen. It has been a big Baraka (blessing) that Maulana Shaykh Muhammad himself has been releasing the hard copies of the books. As mentioned in previous editions too, when the PDF is ready, I call Maulana Shaykh and he makes dua and blesses the release of the book. Once the hard copy is ready we try to meet up with him and get the book officially released by his blessed hands. Below is a picture of the previous book - Sohba Collection 2018, being released by Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad QS
Malfoozat of Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Aadil Ar Rabbani beng released at a special private gathering at Bukit Damansara, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia - October 2019.
We have been tying this with the earlier editions and will keep doing the same with the editions to come, that these books much reach all the Naqshbandi Zavias all over the world. The zikr leaders there can read a lecture from these books in their gatherings and let the teachings of the Shaykh reach his murids. Often it is seen that in many Zavias the khadims / zikr leaders begin to explain somethings or try to teach about the Naqshbandi tariqa but what they teach are not from the teachings of our Shaykhs. These are mostly what they have heard from other ulama and also read in some books or just word of mouth. If it is from another aalim, there can be a difference of opinion. That’s ok and we must follow what our Shaykh teaches us. But in many cases its just word of mouth that they start spreading and most of it are lies. The same gets spread ahead and there are so many false points floating all over the world in the name of our Shaykh. We must save ourselves and save others too from falsehood. We are murids of The Haqqani – Rabbani Shaykhs. Haqqani means defender of Truth. Let us make it a barakah for all and just use the lectures of our Shaykh directly.
I really appreciate your good understanding.
May Allah make us obidient Murids and save us from disobidience and bad adab.
Mawlana has blessed us with ijazat to release the Naqshbandiya Aaliya mobile application. This has been released by Mawlanas blessed Hands in Malaysia last year. The same is available on Android at the moment and very soon will be available on iOS too.
Approved by Mawlana, very soon In sha Allah, also releasing soon is the Tariqa Naqshbandiya Aaliya official Handbook for the Murids.
The handbook shall be available in PDF format, print format and also on the official mobile application called "Sufiway".
Finally we would like to bring to your kind attention that we all shall soon be blessed with access to the Dalail Al Khairat book which was being used by Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad QS himself.
This book has been handed over to us to be scanned and made available for murids all over the world. It contains certain duas as well which Mawlana Shaykh Nazim used to read. This book shall be available on our website www.naqshbandiindia.com, on the Tariqa Naqshbandiya Aaliya mobile application - Sufiway and it shall also have a seperate mobile application for itself as well. May Allah forgive me and bless you all. Wa minallahi tawfeeq Al faatiha
Love & best regards, Khaadim Shaykh Ashraf Ali Ghansar Naqshbandi

1.DO NOT FOLLOW THE MAJORITY Tuesday, 1 January 2019
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, “Wa ’in tuṭi‘ akthara man fī ‘l-arḍi yuḍillūka ‘an sabīli ’Llah” (Qur’ān 6:116). “If you follow the majority you will be diverted from your path, the path of Allah.” Tonight because it is New Year’s Day, many people commit bad things. Therefore, we ask forgiveness and repent for them. We have fear of Allah. May Allahﷻnot divert us from His path, though we might be the minority, let us stay on the right path. Its being the majority, does not benefit us. When in front of Allah, the whole universe does not matter. What matters is to be with Allah. We should draw a lesson from some of these things. Life goes by; we need to make most of it. People of the world, those we call the majority, misunderstand. “We could not do this or that business, had not done this bad thing, but now we have an opportunity to do so. Life is short, so we should not let it pass us by.” They say they could not do it while young, so it is time to do it now. In fact, they speak like this because of their stupidity. However much sin they commit, that much it will be bad in Next Life. A year passes, during the time of the year a person is not much aware of it, but when it is the end of the year, a person may think we are a year older. He may think he is closer to his grave. Contrary to others, if he has any faults, he tries to work on them, because life is short [and], as it is said, passes fast. These things like a new year, are the indications that life goes by. One should draw a lesson from it to make preparations for a new year, so committing sins is an act of stupidity, unfortunate. Those are the ones who could not receive the guidance of Allah. They are unfortunate. If they do not repent, their end is bad. Then they are with such sins that it will be difficult for them to be saved in Next Life, totally unfortunate. There is a “rule” such that [since] everybody else is doing it, I should do too. It is not even a work of intelligence. You stay with the truth! Do not be fooled by the majority. May Allah guide us all, Insha Allah. Every year we too are waiting. May it be the year of Islam this year! May it be the year of Mahdi (AS)! May it be the year when people will receive the light, guidance, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
2.HUMILITY Wednesday, 2 January 2019
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
One of the most important pieces of advice from the Prophet (SAW) is to have humility. Yesterday, as we read in the hadith lesson, he said, “Do not elevate me so much.” Even though the highest in creation is the Prophet (SAW), he teaches humility. However much a man displays pride, by so much he puts himself in ridicule, becomes a laughingstock. Humility is the best of all characteristics, the most beautiful one. Some people cannot stop praising themselves. In such cases, others make fun of the one who does this, also there is no use in such [self-]praise. When humility is displayed, Allah ‘azza wa jalla gives you a reward, you become someone approved. If on the contrary, you follow your ego, neither Allah nor people like those who hold pride. There are many people who do not follow the path of truth, because of their pride.
During the time of the Prophet (SAW), people though knowing him as their prophet of truth, did not accept him because of their pride. They died, fought, [yet] still did not accept him. They were the people of the Prophet’s tribe, Quraysh. Why did they display pride? According to the culture of the time, being poor was not accepted nor being an orphan, both were an offense, [though] in fact, all are from Allah. Allah gives to whomever He wishes; He leaves as an orphan whomever He wishes. They thought this was a humiliating situation, though it has no value [in itself] but [is] the work of Allah. They lost their minds because of their pride. In terms of mental ability, they were pretty smart in cunning, but pride took their minds away, took them to their own end.
Therefore, a person who holds pride deserves hell. He will burn in hell with that pride, [and] after being cleansed, if he is a Muslim, he will enter paradise. If not a Muslim, he will remain there [in hell].
May Allah teach us all humility, have us all be in the state of humility, Insha Allah. Everyone loves those who show humility, the Prophet (SAW) as well as other people.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
3.THE WORLD OF DISBELIEVERS Sunday, 20 January 2019
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Thank God we came back safe [from the UK.] Insha Allah, it was a service. Our service is not important, but may Allah accept it. Those people there who are Muslims already, or just became so, need it. They call it the world of disbelievers, [and] indeed it is. Never can disbelief and faith co-exist. They are always battling each other. Those who follow Shaytan and those who do not follow him are in a state of war—they wish to finish each other. In the last hundred years, they realized that what they had planned was not going to succeed through [actual, overt] wars, [so] they are trying it now through deceit. They want to diminish the faith and religion of those people who are living there. They want them to be wasted away and they want to be a unitary nation without faith. Of course they want this to happen [also] in whole world, so when there are believers among them, they deeply resent them.
They are busy with many different kinds of tricks. Now they are bothering children young and old, but Allah is with the believers, with those who have faith. Allah certainly helps them. Those who are with Allah are victorious. Those who are against Allah are in ruin, no other thing is possible. Either they will be guided and saved from these things, or they will be happy neither here nor in next life. They spend their time with sorrow and worry. They assume that it will be much better when they finish the others off. They cannot finish them, [and] even if they could, there would be no use. We need to thank Allah. People here are dreaming of Europe. They assume it is the place of paradise. They think of running away there and taking refuge. Before getting there, half of them die. Half stay alive, [but] after they reach there they are ruined. One must think about it, and thank Allah. If you thank Allah, He gives your provision anywhere, not letting you down and having you needy of others. May Allah be our helper! May Allah give intellect to people, Insha Allah. It is the greatest provision! Those who have it can see the truth, [and] are not worried. Because they are on the right path, they live at ease, insha’Allah. May this and Next World become blissful, insha’Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
4.THE SUFI PATH Monday, 21 January 2019
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Nothing is like the path of Sufism; it is to train one’s ego. The Sufi Path is to cleanse one from the uncleanliness of this world. It is called the path of purification (tazkiya). Sufism is, therefore, the path of those who have reached maturity on the path of the religion. This is the path of the Prophet (SAW).
It is not easy. Sometimes people wish to hear beautiful words; they love being praised. They are extremely happy when they are praised. If they hear a bad word, they get upset and answer back, they fight; they say in complaint, “This is how I was...” This is not in Sufism. The two should be the same. It should not be unbearable to his ego. How? You will not be joyous, when you are praised. The Prophet (SAW) says, “Take a palm full of soil from the ground, spread it on the face of the one who praised you, so that he does not praise you again.” Do not get angry with the one who says bad about you or get upset. You need to know this is for your ego training. This is what Sufism is.
They treated Sayyiduna Bayazit al-Bastami so badly that sometimes they would throw him for dead. He, on the other hand, used to ask for their forgiveness and say against what they did, “They would have killed me, if they had known it would earn so much good.” This is good for normal people, but for people on the Sufi path they should be indifferent as to whether they are loved or cursed. May Allah cause our ego to be trained. Only we know our own state. May Allah not dishonor us, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
5.SUPPLICATION AND CURSE Tuesday, 22 January 2019
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Cursing is not a good thing; prayer is a good thing. If the person deserves the cursing, it may strike him. The Prophet (SAW) says, “Whoever does it, it happens to him.” So prayer is the greatest gun. People, Muslims, can use it for good. The Prophet saw says, “Do not curse your families, your children.”
It goes to others, if the person is right, but not against those who are oppressed. If you curse the other out of envy, hate, jealousy, that time it returns to you. It is possible to curse a non-believer, because who we call a non-believer is the one who harms us, the one who wants to harm and the one who has others harm. When we are in unity, we pray, “May Allah damn those!” —because they are attacking the umma, [and] their only goal is to put an end to Islam. Because having grudges [and] hate, they are with their satans, one can curse them by saying, “May Allah damn those! Allah!”
However, a Muslim should not curse another Muslim. As we said, if they do and they are right, that is ok, but if not their curse would return to themselves.
May Allah give intellect to people! May they do their worship or affairs in awareness! In awareness a person reaches salvation. May Allah guide us, give salvation, and ihsan.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
6.LEARNING FROM OUR MISTAKES Wednesday, 23 January 2019
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Human beings make mistakes because they will learn through them. As long as they do not insist on continuing in their fault, the mistakes become lessons to learn from. Therefore, when he makes a mistake, or not particularly committing a sin but following someone wrong or doing something wrong and spoiling it, he should not worry about the world, he should put it into his in mind that it was a lesson.
If he makes a mistake, and is upset, [but] later continues to make the same mistake a hundred or thousands of times, then that time there is no benefit from the mistake.
However, if it is done once and after the task or something is spoiled, then for the second time, you do not go near it, he may ask where the mistake was, correct it, and continue. Instead of thinking something such as, “I did this or that... then this happened. What is this situation? Why did it happen like this?” and bewailing, one must draw a lesson from the mistake.
This is for this world. For the Next World, however many mistakes you make, [however many] sins you commit, you must ask for forgiveness—Allah ‘azza wa jalla says He accepts repentance. The door of repentance is still open. Already a human being does not spend a day without sinning. Not everyone is a saint. Allah azza wa jalla has created people to sin and ask for forgiveness; therefore after repentance, the sins are corrected, and forgiven. Worldly affairs are the same as we said: no need to be upset for the worldly, we draw lessons from mistakes.
Now people study at universities. Most people are not attending government universities, because they would have to study more, [and] most people have become lazy. They prefer private schools, and pay to receive knowledge or to learn skills. In those schools, he pays and learn. When you make a mistake in this world, you learn from it and pay for it not with money but with something else. Therefore, let these remain in our minds. When we make a mistake, we must say, “This was not a mistake, but a lesson.” This means the thing was not good, we made lost a lot, wasted, [and] next time we need to watch out and not repeat it.
On the contrary, if you blame someone else, there is no use in the blaming. No one’s affair goes right. There is a way of doing everything. Allah ‘azza wa jalla creates these situations, wants them to learn from their mistakes and ask for forgiveness so that He forgives. He is merciful; we harm ourselves. May Allah azza wa jalla help us. May we realize our mistakes, draw lessons from them. May Allah forgive our sins.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
7.HEALING IS FROM ALLAH Thursday, 24 January 2019
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani.

These are the End Days. Everything has degenerated. The state of everything is confused. The number of illnesses have also increased; there are a lot of illnesses which are not known. Doctors prescribe medication, and people say, “The medicines do not help.” This is because when Allah wants you to become ill. When you put your trust in medicine instead of Allah, then you might n

I.INTRODUCTION
Auzubillahi minash shaitanir rajeem Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem
Maulana Shaykh Muhammad (Mehmet) Aadil Ar Rabbani is the head and the 41st Grand Shaykh of the Naqshbandiya Aaliya Sufi way and the elder son and successor of Maulana Shaykh Nazim Aadil Al Haqqani in this path.
His words are words of wisdom and light for all of us on this path. Alhamdulilah he has been traveling all over attending to murids and spreading the light of the Naqshbandi tariqa from east to west.Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya. Our way is the way of associations and the goodness is in being together. As Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad (Mehmet) travels he spreads the teachings of the Naqshbandi Grand Shaykhs. His words are as per the needs of the audience. Every soul is fed as per its apetite and its needs. These words of wisdom are recorded and are then distributed among murids an non murids all over the world, in various forms. This book is one of the forms his words are reaching to you.Please feel free to forward this book to as many people as you wish, in its full form (without changing anything) as it does not have any copyright on it. We intend to keep these books free of cost always. May Allah SWT make it easy and accept our weak services. Aameen. Al-Fatiha.
II.FOREWORD
Auzubillahi minash shaitanir rajeem Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem
Allahumma Salliala Sayyidina Muhammadin wa alaa Aali Sayyidina Muhammadin wa Sallim
As salaamwalekum wa Rehmatullahi taala wa Barakaatu
Madad Ya Sayyidi Ya Murshidi Sultan ul Awlia Maulana Shaykh Nazim QS. Madad Ya Sayyidi Ya Murshidi Sultan ul Awlia Maulana Shaykh Mehmet QS.
You may have noticed that most of the Malfoozat of Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Aadil Ar Rabbani have common Introduction, Foreword and Aknowledgement. There is certain information which needs to be repeated and must reach the readers in every book.
Also important to know is that these books are not for us to share our views, but for us to make sure Mawlana's words reach to every corner of this world.
At the same time we recomend that you make sure to read these sections as well in every book as a reminder for ourselves.
This book is a compendium of sohbets or spiritual discourses, of the year 2019, of our Master and teacher of millions and worldwide leader of the Naqshbandiya Aaliya Sufi Order, Maulana Shaykh Muhammad Aadil Ar Rabbani QS, may Allah SWT grant him good health and long life – Aameen.
These sohbas are easily available in video format on www.saltanat.org & www.hakkanitv.org. We are trying to make it easy for the followers to find a medium that suits them to receive these teachings. Therefore the sohbas of this book is available in 3 formats:
1.Videos 2.PDF copy 3.Hard copy
Please pick the format that suits you and get enlightened with the words and teachings of our Master. May Allah SWT bless us with good understanding and the tawfeeq to act upon these teachings – Aameen.
If any of the readers would like to translate this book or the series of these books to any other language, please seek Maulana Shaykh Muhammad’s permission. Please do not translate without his permission. If you are unable to reach him directly, you may write to me and in sha Allah I shall seek try to permission for you.
Alhamdulilah we are blessed that Maulana Shaykh Muhammad QS, the head of the Naqshbandiya Aaliya Sufi Order has blessed us and allowed us to work on these books, year after year. We have already completed and released 4 books, before this one, ie; 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. These books are available in both soft & hard formats through our website www.naqshbandiindia.com. Soon this book of sohbas of 2018 shall be available in both soft & hard formats. There are various teams involved in the making of these books (series of books). It is a process of service that teams of murids are offering right from the AV team, to the transcripting team, to the compiling team, to the printing and then the distribution team. I am greatful to each and everyone involded in the making of the previous books and this one too. May Allah SWT reward all with khair here and hereafter – Aameen.
We have a few advise for the readers to make the reading process more beneficial. Our advise is simple, read only until you can stay focused. These sohbas / lectures are words of a saint of Allah SWT. If we lose focus and lose focus on a few lines in between while reading the meaning of the message may be changed.
In other words, the teachings of the Shaykh may be misunderstood. Also try to keep a highlighter handy, and / or use sticky notes, so you can highlight topics, or sentences which you would like to refer in the future. The lectures are transcripted and are in the exact form as Maulana Mehmet speaks.
Another advise is that when ever you read the name Allah, please say Jalla Jalaaluhu or Subhana Wa Ta’aala along with it. When you read Prophet Muhammads Name, please make sure to say Sal lal laa hu alaihi wa sallam. When you come across Sahaba Names, please say Radi Allahu Anhu and when you come across Maulana Shaykh Nazim or other Awlia names, please say Qaddas Allahu Sirrahu.
May Allah SWT bless the one who reads this book, with good understanding and hidaya to act upon these teahcings of our Master – Aameen. It has been a big Baraka (blessing) that Maulana Shaykh Muhammad himself has been releasing the hard copies of the books. As mentioned in previous editions too, when the PDF is ready, I call Maulana Shaykh and he makes dua and blesses the release of the book. Once the hard copy is ready we try to meet up with him and get the book officially released by his blessed hands. Below is a picture of the previous book - Sohba Collection 2018, being released by Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad QS
Malfoozat of Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Aadil Ar Rabbani beng released at a special private gathering at Bukit Damansara, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia - October 2019.
We have been tying this with the earlier editions and will keep doing the same with the editions to come, that these books much reach all the Naqshbandi Zavias all over the world. The zikr leaders there can read a lecture from these books in their gatherings and let the teachings of the Shaykh reach his murids. Often it is seen that in many Zavias the khadims / zikr leaders begin to explain somethings or try to teach about the Naqshbandi tariqa but what they teach are not from the teachings of our Shaykhs. These are mostly what they have heard from other ulama and also read in some books or just word of mouth. If it is from another aalim, there can be a difference of opinion. That’s ok and we must follow what our Shaykh teaches us. But in many cases its just word of mouth that they start spreading and most of it are lies. The same gets spread ahead and there are so many false points floating all over the world in the name of our Shaykh. We must save ourselves and save others too from falsehood. We are murids of The Haqqani – Rabbani Shaykhs. Haqqani means defender of Truth. Let us make it a barakah for all and just use the lectures of our Shaykh directly.
I really appreciate your good understanding.
May Allah make us obidient Murids and save us from disobidience and bad adab.
Mawlana has blessed us with ijazat to release the Naqshbandiya Aaliya mobile application. This has been released by Mawlanas blessed Hands in Malaysia last year. The same is available on Android at the moment and very soon will be available on iOS too.
Approved by Mawlana, very soon In sha Allah, also releasing soon is the Tariqa Naqshbandiya Aaliya official Handbook for the Murids.
The handbook shall be available in PDF format, print format and also on the official mobile application called "Sufiway".
Finally we would like to bring to your kind attention that we all shall soon be blessed with access to the Dalail Al Khairat book which was being used by Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad QS himself.
This book has been handed over to us to be scanned and made available for murids all over the world. It contains certain duas as well which Mawlana Shaykh Nazim used to read. This book shall be available on our website www.naqshbandiindia.com, on the Tariqa Naqshbandiya Aaliya mobile application - Sufiway and it shall also have a seperate mobile application for itself as well. May Allah forgive me and bless you all. Wa minallahi tawfeeq Al faatiha
Love & best regards, Khaadim Shaykh Ashraf Ali Ghansar Naqshbandi

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, “Wa ’in tuṭi‘ akthara man fī ‘l-arḍi yuḍillūka ‘an sabīli ’Llah” (Qur’ān 6:116). “If you follow the majority you will be diverted from your path, the path of Allah.” Tonight because it is New Year’s Day, many people commit bad things. Therefore, we ask forgiveness and repent for them. We have fear of Allah. May Allahﷻnot divert us from His path, though we might be the minority, let us stay on the right path. Its being the majority, does not benefit us. When in front of Allah, the whole universe does not matter. What matters is to be with Allah. We should draw a lesson from some of these things. Life goes by; we need to make most of it. People of the world, those we call the majority, misunderstand. “We could not do this or that business, had not done this bad thing, but now we have an opportunity to do so. Life is short, so we should not let it pass us by.” They say they could not do it while young, so it is time to do it now. In fact, they speak like this because of their stupidity. However much sin they commit, that much it will be bad in Next Life. A year passes, during the time of the year a person is not much aware of it, but when it is the end of the year, a person may think we are a year older. He may think he is closer to his grave. Contrary to others, if he has any faults, he tries to work on them, because life is short [and], as it is said, passes fast. These things like a new year, are the indications that life goes by. One should draw a lesson from it to make preparations for a new year, so committing sins is an act of stupidity, unfortunate. Those are the ones who could not receive the guidance of Allah. They are unfortunate. If they do not repent, their end is bad. Then they are with such sins that it will be difficult for them to be saved in Next Life, totally unfortunate. There is a “rule” such that [since] everybody else is doing it, I should do too. It is not even a work of intelligence. You stay with the truth! Do not be fooled by the majority. May Allah guide us all, Insha Allah. Every year we too are waiting. May it be the year of Islam this year! May it be the year of Mahdi (AS)! May it be the year when people will receive the light, guidance, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
2.HUMILITY Wednesday, 2 January 2019
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
One of the most important pieces of advice from the Prophet (SAW) is to have humility. Yesterday, as we read in the hadith lesson, he said, “Do not elevate me so much.” Even though the highest in creation is the Prophet (SAW), he teaches humility. However much a man displays pride, by so much he puts himself in ridicule, becomes a laughingstock. Humility is the best of all characteristics, the most beautiful one. Some people cannot stop praising themselves. In such cases, others make fun of the one who does this, also there is no use in such [self-]praise. When humility is displayed, Allah ‘azza wa jalla gives you a reward, you become someone approved. If on the contrary, you follow your ego, neither Allah nor people like those who hold pride. There are many people who do not follow the path of truth, because of their pride.
During the time of the Prophet (SAW), people though knowing him as their prophet of truth, did not accept him because of their pride. They died, fought, [yet] still did not accept him. They were the people of the Prophet’s tribe, Quraysh. Why did they display pride? According to the culture of the time, being poor was not accepted nor being an orphan, both were an offense, [though] in fact, all are from Allah. Allah gives to whomever He wishes; He leaves as an orphan whomever He wishes. They thought this was a humiliating situation, though it has no value [in itself] but [is] the work of Allah. They lost their minds because of their pride. In terms of mental ability, they were pretty smart in cunning, but pride took their minds away, took them to their own end.
Therefore, a person who holds pride deserves hell. He will burn in hell with that pride, [and] after being cleansed, if he is a Muslim, he will enter paradise. If not a Muslim, he will remain there [in hell].
May Allah teach us all humility, have us all be in the state of humility, Insha Allah. Everyone loves those who show humility, the Prophet (SAW) as well as other people.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
3.THE WORLD OF DISBELIEVERS Sunday, 20 January 2019
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Thank God we came back safe [from the UK.] Insha Allah, it was a service. Our service is not important, but may Allah accept it. Those people there who are Muslims already, or just became so, need it. They call it the world of disbelievers, [and] indeed it is. Never can disbelief and faith co-exist. They are always battling each other. Those who follow Shaytan and those who do not follow him are in a state of war—they wish to finish each other. In the last hundred years, they realized that what they had planned was not going to succeed through [actual, overt] wars, [so] they are trying it now through deceit. They want to diminish the faith and religion of those people who are living there. They want them to be wasted away and they want to be a unitary nation without faith. Of course they want this to happen [also] in whole world, so when there are believers among them, they deeply resent them.
They are busy with many different kinds of tricks. Now they are bothering children young and old, but Allah is with the believers, with those who have faith. Allah certainly helps them. Those who are with Allah are victorious. Those who are against Allah are in ruin, no other thing is possible. Either they will be guided and saved from these things, or they will be happy neither here nor in next life. They spend their time with sorrow and worry. They assume that it will be much better when they finish the others off. They cannot finish them, [and] even if they could, there would be no use. We need to thank Allah. People here are dreaming of Europe. They assume it is the place of paradise. They think of running away there and taking refuge. Before getting there, half of them die. Half stay alive, [but] after they reach there they are ruined. One must think about it, and thank Allah. If you thank Allah, He gives your provision anywhere, not letting you down and having you needy of others. May Allah be our helper! May Allah give intellect to people, Insha Allah. It is the greatest provision! Those who have it can see the truth, [and] are not worried. Because they are on the right path, they live at ease, insha’Allah. May this and Next World become blissful, insha’Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
4.THE SUFI PATH Monday, 21 January 2019
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Nothing is like the path of Sufism; it is to train one’s ego. The Sufi Path is to cleanse one from the uncleanliness of this world. It is called the path of purification (tazkiya). Sufism is, therefore, the path of those who have reached maturity on the path of the religion. This is the path of the Prophet (SAW).
It is not easy. Sometimes people wish to hear beautiful words; they love being praised. They are extremely happy when they are praised. If they hear a bad word, they get upset and answer back, they fight; they say in complaint, “This is how I was...” This is not in Sufism. The two should be the same. It should not be unbearable to his ego. How? You will not be joyous, when you are praised. The Prophet (SAW) says, “Take a palm full of soil from the ground, spread it on the face of the one who praised you, so that he does not praise you again.” Do not get angry with the one who says bad about you or get upset. You need to know this is for your ego training. This is what Sufism is.
They treated Sayyiduna Bayazit al-Bastami so badly that sometimes they would throw him for dead. He, on the other hand, used to ask for their forgiveness and say against what they did, “They would have killed me, if they had known it would earn so much good.” This is good for normal people, but for people on the Sufi path they should be indifferent as to whether they are loved or cursed. May Allah cause our ego to be trained. Only we know our own state. May Allah not dishonor us, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
5.SUPPLICATION AND CURSE Tuesday, 22 January 2019
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Cursing is not a good thing; prayer is a good thing. If the person deserves the cursing, it may strike him. The Prophet (SAW) says, “Whoever does it, it happens to him.” So prayer is the greatest gun. People, Muslims, can use it for good. The Prophet saw says, “Do not curse your families, your children.”
It goes to others, if the person is right, but not against those who are oppressed. If you curse the other out of envy, hate, jealousy, that time it returns to you. It is possible to curse a non-believer, because who we call a non-believer is the one who harms us, the one who wants to harm and the one who has others harm. When we are in unity, we pray, “May Allah damn those!” —because they are attacking the umma, [and] their only goal is to put an end to Islam. Because having grudges [and] hate, they are with their satans, one can curse them by saying, “May Allah damn those! Allah!”
However, a Muslim should not curse another Muslim. As we said, if they do and they are right, that is ok, but if not their curse would return to themselves.
May Allah give intellect to people! May they do their worship or affairs in awareness! In awareness a person reaches salvation. May Allah guide us, give salvation, and ihsan.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
6.LEARNING FROM OUR MISTAKES Wednesday, 23 January 2019
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Human beings make mistakes because they will learn through them. As long as they do not insist on continuing in their fault, the mistakes become lessons to learn from. Therefore, when he makes a mistake, or not particularly committing a sin but following someone wrong or doing something wrong and spoiling it, he should not worry about the world, he should put it into his in mind that it was a lesson.
If he makes a mistake, and is upset, [but] later continues to make the same mistake a hundred or thousands of times, then that time there is no benefit from the mistake.
However, if it is done once and after the task or something is spoiled, then for the second time, you do not go near it, he may ask where the mistake was, correct it, and continue. Instead of thinking something such as, “I did this or that... then this happened. What is this situation? Why did it happen like this?” and bewailing, one must draw a lesson from the mistake.
This is for this world. For the Next World, however many mistakes you make, [however many] sins you commit, you must ask for forgiveness—Allah ‘azza wa jalla says He accepts repentance. The door of repentance is still open. Already a human being does not spend a day without sinning. Not everyone is a saint. Allah azza wa jalla has created people to sin and ask for forgiveness; therefore after repentance, the sins are corrected, and forgiven. Worldly affairs are the same as we said: no need to be upset for the worldly, we draw lessons from mistakes.
Now people study at universities. Most people are not attending government universities, because they would have to study more, [and] most people have become lazy. They prefer private schools, and pay to receive knowledge or to learn skills. In those schools, he pays and learn. When you make a mistake in this world, you learn from it and pay for it not with money but with something else. Therefore, let these remain in our minds. When we make a mistake, we must say, “This was not a mistake, but a lesson.” This means the thing was not good, we made lost a lot, wasted, [and] next time we need to watch out and not repeat it.
On the contrary, if you blame someone else, there is no use in the blaming. No one’s affair goes right. There is a way of doing everything. Allah ‘azza wa jalla creates these situations, wants them to learn from their mistakes and ask for forgiveness so that He forgives. He is merciful; we harm ourselves. May Allah azza wa jalla help us. May we realize our mistakes, draw lessons from them. May Allah forgive our sins.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
7.HEALING IS FROM ALLAH Thursday, 24 January 2019
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem.

These are the End Days. Everything has degenerated. The state of everything is confused. The number of illnesses have also increased; there are a lot of illnesses which are not known. Doctors prescribe medication, and people say, “The medicines do not help.” This is because when Allah wants you to become ill. When you put your trust in medicine instead of Allah, then you might n
