Suhbah 2019: Maulana Shaykh Mehmet Adil ar-Rabbani (17/25)


https://www.nvrislam.net/index.php?j=eng&post=5542
r says something claiming that I said it and I didn't say it, he will have prepared his place in Hell." This has been happening since our Prophet's time until now. Even for ḥadīth, we say, "Aw kamā qal," (or as he said). When ḥadīth of our Prophet is recited, if it is not exactly what our Prophet said, we assume he said something similar to it. We are not 100% sure. And so as not to lie, we can't say, "Our Prophet said this." As we can't say it is accurate in every word, we say, "Aw kamā qal."

In order to destroy religion, many Isrā’īliyyāt (stories of Banī Isrā’il) were put forth as ḥadīth even though they were not related to the words of our Prophet. However, these were sorted out. There were such ‘ulamā’ that Allāh put light in their hearts and gave them mind and understanding. They sorted the true ḥadīth of our Prophet and confirmed them. If it wasn't true, they sorted them out – hundreds of thousand or millions of ḥadīth saying they were not said by our Prophet. Shukr to Allāh, ḥadīth are clean. They brought to us ḥadīth told by our Prophet. There are many ḥadīth scholars like Imām al- Bukhārī, Muslim, Tirmidhī, Ibn [Abū] Dāwūd and Ibn Mājah. All of them did a big service. They were useful to Islām. And Allāh gave them that rank. It was a beautiful duty for them.

Of course, after our Prophet, again everyone said, "This Shaykh told me this. I follow him." It is the same thing. Telling people the Shaykh said something he didn't say is not a good thing at all. Everyone knows what Mawlānā (q) said and did. Mawlānā (q) didn't say anything in secret. And it is known who came and left, who said what. Some claim, "He made me shaykh. He made me imām." They are shown clearly by Mawlānā (q). Therefore, it is only for dunyā. That is a big sin to use religion for this world. Your rank is for yourself. If Allāh didn't give you a rank, you can lie as much as you want. That is not important. If Shaykh said it, it has a reason. And when you say without a reason, you get no benefit and put yourself into sin. You will have benefit neither in dunyā, nor in Ākhirah.

Therefore, we should be careful. Liars have not been accepted since the beginning. We should get rid of this habit. We should leave it. Because lying is a characteristic disliked

by Allāh and the Prophet. "A Muslim doesn't lie," says our Prophet in an ḥadīth sharīf. Our Prophet used to say, "A Muslim can do this and that, but cannot lie." Therefore, we should be careful. There is no right to cause a headache to anyone and confuse them. There is no benefit in false words. And no one will help you on the Day of Judgment. When you tell a lie, you will carry its punishment.

Therefore, we should be careful. Religion is not a toy. Religion is not a shop. Be careful. Be content with what is given to you. When you are pleased, you may have profit in the future. When you are not pleased, you try to trade as a shrewd merchant. That shrewdness, we have witnessed it many times, there are many people, who are shrewd merchants. They sell something and act clever. While trying to earn one, they lose a hundred and even a thousand. We have seen it with our eyes.

And matters of Ākhirah are more important. We should be careful. May Allāh not let us obey our ego. We are content with what Allāh gives. Allāh has written this for us.

Mawlānā (q) showed me this. We should continue like this. May we not be encouraged by other people to be as they like, as their egos like, Insha Allah.

Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying, "O people who say something I didn't say and say 'You say this.' " Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying for something he didn't tell, he didn't say – "He must prepare his place in Hell." It is very important, very sensitive thing. Even when we are saying some ḥadīth, because we don't know hundred percent what Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, how pronounce this, he said: "As he said." "Innamā l-a‘mālu bi n-niyyāt." – as Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam said. Maybe some word less, some letter different. So we say this to not be charged for this, to not be asked what you said Prophet not said this. But we are only saying this.

How for people they are completely, after Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, they was putting hundreds, thousands, hundred thousand words as Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam saying [in order] to destroy Islām. They say... For this Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam, for his miracle, know this and he said this to not, Islām not to be destroyed with bad intention people. And they was puting, as we said, this hundred thousand of ḥadīth about Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam but Allāh also, Allāh He want to be their religion, "Inna d-dīna 'inda Llāhi l-islām" (3:19). this religion, Allāh keep He keep this religion. And He send men, scholar, awliyā’u Llāh, imām – each one they have light in heart and very brilliant, clever and knowledge. One of them is enough for whole world. So they was looking after this what this people they are writing, and one by one, one by one, they clean all this. They not leave any one from this bad who Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam not saying. They so, and they... as inheritant for Islām from one thousand four hundred year coming to us. But these days there are people also they are making doubt for this but no, no

doubt for this because no any scholar in this time – if whole scholar in this world coming together, not equal for one from that people, that scholar – like Imām Bukhārī, Imām Muslim, Imām Tirmidhī, Imām Aḥmad Ibn Ḥanbal, other. All this Muḥaddith, they was looking and they knowing which. And our religion on this. So for this, it is very important to say [the] truth. After Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam also many times people they are saying Aḥmad Ibn Ḥanbal he said like this. Aḥmad Ibn Ḥanbal not saying what Salafī saying they said. No he not saying this. But they say this.

This example, millions of examples like this – "The Shaykh he said this." "I am his successor." "I am he give me ijāzah." "I am like this." "I am like that." "Shaykh he give permission for me to do this and he say you can do that." This also like what Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam saying: If somebody saying like this, he will be also in Hell because making for their ego, for benefit of themself, they are using religion, they are using ṭarīqah, they are using everything. So this people they not have – only they can be in Hell. We are hearing here and there but it is not good to say this. You must be humble. You must be accept what your master, your murshid, your shaykh saying. Not to be like clever trader, you hijack people to sell them something false. After, they cannot get benefit from anything. It is, you will be asked for this.

The truth very important. To be liar it is most unliked attribute for Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, for Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. There is many ḥadīth from Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, they are saying, "If Muslim can be, do this?" "Yes, he can be," said. "He do this also [he be] is Muslim." "But if he lie" said "you cannot be Muslim." Liar not. No. So this is very important and every time there is people in ṭarīqah, around ṭarīqah, we not, we know them, some of them we don't know them at all. They saying, "Mawlānā (q) he was saying this, he was saying that." So Allāh give them hidāyah. This what we ask. We are not cursing them. We not angry with them but we are sorry for them because they are not learning anything from Mawlānā (q). Whole these years with Mawlānā (q) not learning anything at all. And people who following them, also no benefit for this people, any benefit. Allāh give hidāyah to not thinking this like shop, trading shop. You must think like, accept what Allāh give us and follow this way. If Allāh open for you, open. Not open, it's also good because you are not making anything wrong. You have little bit it's okay. But if you have, you like to more and after you lose what you have and on top of this you get cursed also from because Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying this. Allāh don't let us for ourself and we ask for forgiveness, Insha Allah. Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

117.THIS TIME IS LIKE A DARK NIGHT Thursday, 13 June 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.

Shukr to Allāh we were created to be in the Ummah of our Prophet. Our thanks is not enough. This favour is a huge favour. We should know its value. Most prophets, ‘alayhumu s- salām, wished they were not prophets but were simple people within the Ummatu Muḥammad. It is such a big favour to be from Ummatu Muḥammad. People don't realize it. And there are very few who believe in it.

It is also said in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n, if you're going to follow people, most of them will mislead you. They will mislead you from the true way. Whereas to be from the Ummah of our Prophet is such a big honour. We can understand non-Muslim people, they are already misguided. But people who call themselves Muslim don't respect our Prophet and don't let others respect him. After the Ottomans, they destroyed all of it like they destroyed the Ottomans. The Ottomans were the fortress of Islām. And these people destroyed most of Islām. Only a little is left.

But certainly Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla will spread His religion all over the world. These people who don't respect our Prophet will never prosper, they will never succeed and won't have goodness. They are always in trouble. Whatever they do is useless. But those who are with Prophet always benefit. They are beloved servants of Allāh.

We are living at the end of times. This time, our Prophet says, "Kaqiṭa‘i l-layli l-muẓlim." It is like a dark night. This time is like the dark night. It is so dark that you can't see anything. Darkness. People are saying good for bad and bad for good.

"Yaj‘alu l-ḥalīmu ḥayrānā." Sane people are astonished. People are bewildered. These are those times. We should keep our faith and love for our Prophet in this time. We will be saved by it. Everyone who is away from it, is misguided. Whatever they do brings no benefit for them. Because it is faulty, their belief is broken. Belief is most important. The world is full of them now. But as we said, no need for hopelessness.

Be on the way of our Prophet. Be with people who love our Prophet. And there are ṭuruq, shukr to Allāh. Who are not in ṭarīqah are in danger. They are going wherever the wind

blows. May Allāh protect us. May Allāh increase our love. Who are with Allāh and the Prophet, they won't be in the dark. Darkness is for those who are not with them, they have no light. The light is with our Prophet.

We are living as Nation of Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, Sayyidunā Muḥammad sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam and it is big honour, big favour from Allāh to us. We are, we must thank Him every time. Because many Prophets, from before our Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, they was wishing to be one person from Nation of Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, Sayyidunā Muḥammad ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, who to, instead to be prophet. Because they are knowing the value of this, to be one of his Nation. They are seeing, because they are prophets, they are, Allāh show them all thing, everything, which we don't, we cannot see, they are seeing. They are knowing. And they are seeing how much it is huge favour from Allāh to be one of Nation of Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.

But see this people, the most of people, they are not knowing, if they are some but saying, not accepting this. "We don't want this," said. "Take this big favour, big good for you. It is your chance this. After this you cannot find something like this." "No, we are not believing." Of course there is the most of world. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying, if you ask for people, the most of people they show you wrong way. They are telling you wrong thing. Nobody show you good and what it is benefit. This for non believer is okay we – it's not okay but we say okay because they are following another way, they are not being with this Nation of Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. But for people who are claiming they are believing in Islām and following this Islām. And first thing with this – to respect Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam and to love him.

But now after Ottoman, the Islāmic last Khalifāh, it was Ottoman – they destroy it and they destroy Islām with this. And they put people who are they claiming they are Muslim, but really they are first enemy for Islām. And people, ignorant people, they are cheated by this people and destroying more and more Islām. And Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam was describe this time saying, "it will be time as it is dark like dark night. If you take your hand out, you cannot see it from darkness." And this time making who has, some normal people to be astonish, what he not know what to do. It is very difficult time because there is no light. No light with people who are not with ṭarīqah or following Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Who are against ṭarīqah, this people they are dark people, darkness people they are living. But, al-ḥamdu liLlāh, who following ṭarīqah and Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, Prophet he is nūr, light. It will, they will be in light. But who are not following, they will be like light thing, like paper or something – when wind blowing they can take them this side, that side, and the end, their end not good.

Now this is we are living in this time. But it is after this, Allāh will, Insha Allah, send Sayyidunā Mahdī ‘alayhi s-salām to save us, Insha Allah. Because they must have to get punishment, it must be this darkness, this unjustice thing and it is like this. There is billions of Muslim but most of them not following what Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam saying.

First thing – to love Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam more than ourself. So many of this people from they are writing, showing in everywhere, as Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam normal one like us. And [they have] no respect. So you find the most of who are claiming they are Muslim, they are following this shayṭān people. But it will be, Insha Allah, time to clean all of this when Mahdī ‘alayhi s-salām coming.

And everybody, whole world, Insha Allah, will be follower of Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Allāh make it soon, Insha Allah.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

118.THE BLESSINGS OF THE DERGAH Saturday, 15 June 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.

Here is a holy dergah. It is the maqām, dergah, and tomb of Mawlānā (q). Many brothers come here. They come for goodness and the pleasure of Allāh. People come to build a prosperous Ākhirah and a good dunyā for themselves. Some of them visit and go. Some of them stay for a day. Some stay three days. And some decide to stay longer as they don't know anything [about ṭarīqah and want to learn]. So the procedures of the dergah continue. Old dergahs were like this too. Some came for a few days, some came for a day and some stayed for years. They learn adab and procedure and return to their countries to teach this beautiful adab and lifestyle, the way Allāh and the Prophet want life to be for everyone.

When people come here, they feel peace. They have come and stayed for Ramaḍān now. Some stayed for two months. Some stayed for 40 days. When they go back, they ask, "How do we keep this?" Shukr to Allāh, when you come here, wherever in the world you go, the overflowing bounty (fayḍ) and blessing of this place will reach you there. It is like this. Wherever we go in the West and East, in every country we visit, their dergahs have the same atmosphere and spirituality as here. There is no difference between a poor and a rich country. All of them, with support of a true Shaykh, have the same overflowing bounty like here.

Therefore, no need to say, "We went there and came back, and we can’t receive from that overflowing bounty anymore." It continues. If you can't keep everything [you learned] at least don't stop praying. If you do just that, that overflowing bounty will be more than enough. People can't do 100% of what we do here. We don't tell you to do this so as not to make it hard. It should be easy. That overflowing bounty will reach there and tranquillity will come. It will be of benefit for people around you also. This is the benefit.

We will be from the people Allāh mentioned, Insha Allah. This is the straight way,"Sirāṭa lladhīna an‘amta ‘alayhim" (1:7). These are the people favoured by Allāh. To be on the straight way is a favour, to be those people, Insha Allah. These dergahs are favours for people because they are on a straight way. It is great overflowing bounty. It is a place of

tranquillity. Wherever you are in the world, so when you go somewhere else, if there is a dergah, you should visit at least once a weak. You should go for dhikr, for an hour or two. If there is no dergah, make a gathering with your family. Once a week make dhikr for an hour with them. What comes there is the overflowing bounty of this place. by the permission of Allāh. Therefore, this is a big kindness and a big favour given by Allāh to us.

"An‘amta ‘alayhim" (1:7). You offered it. We have nothing. Who comes here or follows a straight way will reach Allāh's favour. We could have been from the people disliked by Allāh but Allāh favoured us. He gave us this way. May Allāh make it last Insha Allah. May there be the same overflowing bounty and favours for the people who come here wherever they go, Insha Allah.

Alhamdulilah we are here in dergah, zāwiyah, takiyah, khānaqāh. We saying for this place it is Naqshbandī Ṭarīqah Center where maqām of Mawlānā (q). He lived here whole life and his holy grave also here. So it is place where our people like to come and visit and take bless from this maqām. Many people coming, going. Some of them maybe short visit, coming, visiting maqām of Mawlānā, and praying, and reading, and they left. Some of them one day, some of them one week, some month or two months or more. This is usual for ṭarīqah zāwiyah, dergah, tekke life. This is life of from beginning from whole zāwiyah was like this, from Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Thousand years, more than thousand years same, nothing change. It is open for everybody to get them good teaching and to send them to other place to make people also to learn.

So some people coming here, maybe stay more than week, two weeks, more and they are happy here. But when they are want to go, they are asking, "Now we are going what will be happen? We are here, we do this and we was happy, was... But we afraid we are leaving this place, it will be not like this. We cannot do like this." No. It is, Alhamdulilah, this is from karāmah of Awliyā’u Llāh who are real Awliyā’ – to make everywhere same like here. Because we are going every place, every country, East, West, North, South, Asia, Africa, Europe – all our dergah you feel this nice, same like here. The atmosphere and bless is same. No difference between rich country, poor country. All this dergah, Alhamdulilah, having this good air. So it is when you are here and going also you will be same like here, Insha Allah, continue what you was doing here.

But of course you cannot do hundred percent what we are doing here. Even as much you can do, it will be, you feel same, Insha Allah, and it will be for you and for around you also good and bless for and barakah and happiness, Insha Allah. This is barakah real coming from Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam and you cannot find it in school or in university or in work or anywhere. This is spiritual thing. People they are not understanding this so sometimes they are not happy with ṭarīqah. But, Alhamdulilah, who has test and Allāh give him this favour, he is happy. Even he [who] is more

knowledgeable from us, or from maybe ordinarius professor or, ya‘nī, high position people who are, Allāh give them favour – they are coming and they are knowing and they are happy to be here and to listen.

This is what Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying in Qur’ān and especially in first sūrah, Sūratu l- Fātiḥah: "Ihdinā ṣirāṭa l-mustaqīm, ṣirāṭa lladhīna an‘amta ‘alayhim" (1:6-7). You make this favour, this good. Make us from this people who are in straight path and this people only You give this favour for them. This good thing You give for them. And we are, Alhamdulilah, we are all time asking and making praying: "Allāh send us good people." And this good people, Alhamdulilah, who they are, Allāh give them favour – an‘am, ni‘mah – favour. The biggest favour who are You are not angry for them. Allāh, Alhamdulilah, He make us to be from this people not people who [You] are angry with them. This is biggest thing.

And when, so who are coming here and he left to from here – don't be afraid we cannot do. All time you are connection, you have connection here and you connection with Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. And, Alhamdulilah, from favour from Allāh, dunyā and Ākhirah, Insha Allah, will be good for you. So who are going to their country, if there is around dergah, zāwiyah – they must give one hour in week or two weeks to visit and to also get bless of zāwiyah. If they are not having this, they can make by themself in their house with their family one hour a week to make dhikr or khatm or small one it must be like this to get this bless and barakah, Insha Allah.

Allāh help you and let us to be whole time in right path with people who are get favour of His Allāh bless. And this is from not us, this is gift from Allāh. Allāh make us in, Alhamdulilah, in ṣirāṭa l-mustaqīm.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

119.WRONG ADDRESS Wednesday, 19 June 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.

It is only Allah who helps people. When there is permission from Him everything becomes easy, everything takes place. Nothing happens when Allah does not want it so. There is no benefit of hoping from someone else. If you want it, ask Allah. There is no benefit for those who are not on the path of Allah ‘azza wa jalla. People have indulged themselves in the world’s business. Both the one who calls himself a Muslim, and the one who doesn’t, forget Allah in every little affair. They ask for someone else’s help. In fact, there is nothing in those [either]; they cannot do anything without help from Allah. They would say you are on a wrong address, looking for things at a wrong address. The address is clear, but you are seeking [your goal] in a mistaken place.

If you are a Muslim and a believer, first you will seek Allah’s pleasure, and then Allah will help you. “I did this or that”—but all of it is done for the benefit of this world! The important thing is what is done for Allah’s sake. If you have done it for Allah’s sake, no need to fear or to be embarrassed about what you are doing. The Prophet (SAW) says, “Hearts are in the hands of Allah.” When He turns the hearts, no one can obstruct you. If you forget Allah, and say, “Nope, I will change the hearts,” then you will face difficulty. This is advice. Those who take it, succeed, and they gain in this world and the Next. If you do not take this advice, that is your business. Sincerity is needed in front of Allah, and it is necessary to remember of Allah in every step we make. Help is from Allah. Help is from Allah and not from anyone else. In the Holy Quran, it is said, “How can you ask from a blind man?” He himself is already needing help, so it is not appropriate for you to ask for help from him. You should ask from Allah, so that He helps, and you succeed. Do not forget Allah! Ask from Allah! Whatever is right, do it, and do not be in need of anyone. Do the haqq! If a man does not want to sink, he must do what is right. Saying “let me give this and do this...” is not right. Do not give anything, and do not promise anything. Only say that you will do whatever particular thing for the sake of Allah, and then you will receive Allah’s help, Insha Allah.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

120.THE BANNER OF ISLAM Friday, 21 June 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.

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem: “Allā inna awliyā’a Llahi lā khawfun ‘alayhim walā hum yuḥzanūn.” (Qur’ān 10:62) It says, “Behold! The Friends of Allah, neither fear shall overwhelm them, nor shall they remain in grief.”

Those who respect them, venerate them are those who are accepted. There is fear and danger for those who do not respect them but say, “These are just old people who know nothing. We know better [than they].”

Our Anatolian, Ottoman capital [payitaht] is the head of the Islamic world. Here is where the flag of our Prophet and the Islamic world is borne. However many trivial people come forward trying to destroy this, they will end up disappointed. They cannot succeed. They cannot do anything, because Allahﷻhas completed His religion. The Ottoman Devlet was built upon the complete path, the path of the Prophet (SAW). This is how they always ruled.

It was the pure ones, the one who protected the religion of Islam. That is why they demolished it. Had it changed to be the way they wanted, they were going to let it stay, but they made the Ottoman government collapse, because they saw it as an obstacle. Next, with a view towards ending it [i.e., the religion of Islam], they appointed bad scholars who were useless, every type of them, but they cannot end it. This is the religion of Allah, and Allah ‘azza wa jalla does not allow them such a chance. Those who go against them have faced the anger of Allahﷻ, which means that what they do is in vain.

We see many other paths apart from this true path, and they all struggle to end the true path. If you want to bring it to an end, try it in your own country. We do not need to imitate others. Let them imitate and follow us. May Allah not confuse people, but let us know the value of our path! The greatest provision, and that which has the greatest value, is Islam. In it the one who is on the right path is valuable. Thanks be to Allah, the head of Islam is here. The help of Allah’s friends is ready. It is necessary to have the

strength here. No need to look like others. If you do, it is like an adult trying to look like a stupid child. And afterwards, they move you around like a ball, and you end up shamed, with all you do being done in vain.

May Allah make us one of those who knows value. This is a great provision. Allah ‘azza wa jalla bestowed this service on us, to the Ottomans. It is important to know its value. May Allah guide people who have no mind! May He give intelligence! In our country also there are a lot of ignorant people. As for ignorant so-called scholars, may Allah guide them and give them intelligence too.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

121.THE GREATEST MIRACLE Saturday, 22 June 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.

Allah ‘azza wa jalla showed us the Prophet’s (S.A.W.) miracles. The greatest of all is the Holy Quran. Even if people and jinn were to get together, they could not write a book like it. The Prophet (S.A.W.) says, “In it there is news of those who came before you, and news of what will happen after you. There is healing, and there is joy.” When you read the Quran, you take a good deed with you to the Next Life. He says, “Read it!” It brings healing, and peace to your hearts, and becomes a means of protection.

There is everything in it. There are a lot of references that are explanatory (tafsīr) but none can amount to even the size of a drop. Thanks be to Allah that we are able to read it, and to know its value, insha’Allah. “As much as we know”, but of course that is only as much as Allah reveals to us. May Allah teach us its meaning and truth, Insha Allah! For those who do not read it, may Allah have them read.

It is from the wisdom of Allah that people memorize it [even] without knowing the meaning, and they continue doing so. It is easier for us to understand, because we understand some Arabic. We do not know what it is like for those who do not understand Arabic. This is a very strange thing. It is a proof that the Quran is a miracle, from whichever angle one looks.

May Allah’s baraka be upon us! May it bring health, and may our faith be strong, Insha Allah.

122.THE PLACE OF TEST Sunday, 23 June 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.

Life continually tests whether a person has faith or not. This world is a place of test for everyone. Sometimes the test is good, sometimes bad. For the one who has faith, whether it is good or bad, the result is beneficial. But for the one without faith, what he goes through does not benefit him at all.

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, this is an ayat: “Iṣlawhā faṣbirū aw lā taṣbirū sawā’un ‘alaykum, innamā tujzawna mā kuntum ta'malūn.”(Qur’ān 52:16)

“Taste you therein its heat and whether you are patient of it or impatient of it; it is all the same. You are only being requited for what you used to do.“ Either be patient about it or not, it is a punishment and you will endure the punishment. When a misfortune happens to a believer and he shows patience in the sight of Allah, his reward will be great. If he does not there is no reward.

“Innamā yuwaffā-ṣ-ṣābirūna ajrahum biġhayri ḥisāb” (Qur’ān 39:10). It means, those who are patient will be given their reward without reckoning.” It is Allah’s promise. Faith is a great provision. Now others bother them and it has become even for children to say, “I have no religion”. May Allah protect us! It is easy to deceive young people during their transition from one life stage to the next. May Allah protect the people of Muhammad, the children, daughters and sons, of Muslims. They are the ones bothered by Satan the most. They then do not know what to do. They might think something is worthy, when in fact they are harming themselves. Later they will suffer their own punishment, and their punishment will not even benefit them.

This all means that there is a test everyday for everyone, elders and youngsters. May Allah give what is good. May Allah not test us. May He not not test our faith. May Allah give strength and health. May He give strength to our faith.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
