iever very few and we are very lucky.
Who love Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, he is believer. He not loving him, he is shayṭān, and from follower of shayṭān. Because shayṭān from first day of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, his prophecy, he is become enemy for him. Now we see everywhere around the world they are making against Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam. Saying, shouting, making bad thing, but it is nothing happen Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Everything they do, they become on them. Allāh curse them every time they attacking Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. And, Alhamdulilah, we are happy with Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. If we are happy, he is happy also with us. Every time we make ṣalawāt, Allāh rewards us same like him, because this is His promise. And we must be take as much we can take from this, from its bless, and, Insha Allah, we [will] be in with good people, forever Insha Allah, Insha Allah.

177.QUDRATU LLĀH Wednesday, 25 December 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. "Wa-mā ūtītum mina l-‘ilmi illā qalīlā" (17:85). Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n: "What you know is little. What you don't know is much." Allāh's knowledge is unlimited.
People study at universities and think they know everything. Universities don't have quality anymore. They sank to the level of the old middle schools. Whoever you ask, they are not aware of anything. And they boast about attending a university. They think a lot of themselves and make judgments. They don't like Allāh's orders. They assume they have knowledge as if they know everything, deciding this can be done and that cannot. They do things as they like. And when it is like this, it is not knowledge, it is heedlessness. Knowledge is in the presence of Allāh.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Wa-kullu shay’in ‘indahu bimiqdār" (13:8). Everything has its accounting. Everything has its measure near Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla.
Don't look at dervishes and think that is Allāh's knowledge. That dervish has devoted himself to Allāh. He is saved. But all the knowledge is in the presence of Allāh. They think hard for years and learn something. And that is as nothing in the presence of Allāh. Allāh made everything to a measure. Everything is made to a measure. There are things Allāh lets us know. We have to follow them. Our belief in them and our following of them make us comfortable. It makes comfort both here and hereafter. If you don't believe in them and start looking for knowledge as you like, you won't have peace - not here, nor hereafter.
Allah created this world and worlds. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla created the universe. His Allāh power cannot be comprehended. If there was a mind a trillion times smarter than
our mind, it would still not be able to comprehend Allāh's knowledge. Therefore, a Muslim person should submit himself. Allāh appointed these things for us, so they are useful. You should say "āmannā wa ṣaddaqnā". You should obey. And you should know this about Allāh's knowledge.
"Wa-liLlāhi mā fi s-samāwāti wa-mā fi l-arḍ" (3:109). Everything is in Allāh's hands. Everything in heaven and on earth is in His knowledge. He knows the number of each atom. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla knows every atom.
Subḥāna Rabbiya l-‘alayyi l-‘aẓīm. Allāhu Akbaru l-Akbar. No one is greater than Allāh. Allāh is ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n. Everything has submitted itself to His power. "Wa-khaḍa‘a kullu shay’in li-qudratihi." Everything has submitted to His power. Shukr to Allāh, He and who submit themselves to made us in the position of those who believe in Him, Him. May Allāh let this favour continue upon us.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying: Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Wa-mā ūtītum mina l-‘ilmi illā qalīlā" (17:85). Allāh says in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n, "What you have from knowledge, science everything, it is very little, very small thing you learn." But people they thought if they have, they finish university, or they are in university, they become very proud. They thought they are have everything from knowledge. And even, what they are saying "we are in university", the level of university become lower and lower and lower.
From like time of Mawlānā, maybe secondary school it is more knowledgeable than this university now. Everywhere university just come, you can pay money and go to university. Not learning anything and take your diploma certificate and you are from university. And they are proud. They are not accepting anything from, even for dunyā, for... they are objecting for anything and they are saying, "This good, this not good." And they are, after they destroy everything and nothing left for them. This is for dunyā for material world. But for Ākhirah also they are also proud. They said, "No, nothing there. No, nothing." What you learn? You are proud from your knowledge, it is not even one atom from Allāh's knowledge. Allāh's knowledge it is endless. You sit you study three, four years in university or more, you make doctora, Ph and other what thing. You are very proud. You thought you know everything. No, you not know anything at all. Very very very small. And this is, what you learn – it is not benefit for you. It harming you. Maybe if you didn't learn this, you will be more believer, more obeying one.
So, to be obedient you must have knowledge and you must surround [surrender] for His, Allāh's ability –what Qudrat? – Qudrat, Power, Insha Allah. His Power what it is endless. You cannot put any limit for this. You cannot describe at all what His Power, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, Power. But people they thought they have, they can do anything. Very small thing, everything here like bomb. From very small thing Allāh can destroy whole this- not only world, whole universe. Everything around us with His Power, His Qudrat, standing. If His order one, He will finish everything. Don't think you have power, you have knowledge. Your knowledge not knowledge, it's rubbish, only rubbish if you are not accepting Power of our Lord Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla.
So it is, people this time, end of time, whole proud. They don't know anything. They don't know the last day. They don't know the life of barzakh, which it is after death, you will be put you in grave, and in the grave even it is paradise or if it is hell. So until Qiyāmah you will be there. In Qiyāmah you have, you will ask and you go for hell or for paradise. All this they don't know. They not accept, they don't know. You don't know it is. You said, "I am clever, I studied university." So you are responsible, and you will be asked why you didn't accept this.
And you said you have university certificate, you have everything. You are clever and you not accept this. So you will be asked for this. You said, "I don't know." You don't know? You was denying, running away from this. So it is a knowledge, real knowledge to know this and to practice what Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla and accept Allāh, ask for forgiveness from Him. If you ask for forgiveness, you will be saved here and hereafter. Don't be ignorant. You don't be ignorant. When you more studying, some people becoming more ignorant, some people becoming more knowledgeable.
Who... Because everything showing the Creator. So, clever one they see when, what from knowledge, Lord Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Some of them they not knowing – this is ignorant. Two people, two kinds of people. Allāh make, thanking for Allāh to make us from who accept Him and to be beloved for Him, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
178.ASK FORGIVENESS FROM PEOPLE Thursday, 26 December 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.
Allāh forgives sins. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla: "Inna Llāha ghafūrur raḥīm" (24:62). Forgiving and Merciful is Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. No matter how much sin people make, Allāh ‘Azza wa- Jalla still forgives them. As long as they repent, Allāh's right is forgiven. If they sin throughout their life and ask forgiveness before they die, Allāh says He will forgive. If they don't repeat it, they will be forgiven. And who has taken someone's right, he should ask forgiveness from him just like he asks forgiveness from Allāh. He should ask for their blessing, to be in peace.
Because Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla owns justice. He owns justice and says, "It is My servant's right." If they forgive, they know it for themselves. If they don't, they will get it in the hereafter; they will get their right on Judgment Day. If you don't give someone's right in dunyā, certainly it will be taken in Ākhirah.
As we said, Allāh's right, Allāh is saying, "I am forgiving." "Wa-innī la-ghaffārul liman tāba wa-āman" (20:82). "I am extremely forgiving." Ghaffār meaning forgiving those who repent and believe, says Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Therefore, we have to be careful about people's rights. Even if you are 100% sure, it is better to question and ask if there is any right on you and ask for blessings. And if your right has been taken, it is good to give blessings and make peace, with Allāh's permission. It is an issue for everyone. Because some people show arrogance thinking they are something. But who is humble and forgiving, in the presence of Allāh, is more acceptable. Even if there are people who are 80 or 90 years old, who may have made mistakes throughout their lives, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla still forgives.
And regarding the rights of servants, it is different whether you did wrong knowingly or without knowing. Because sometimes people make mistakes. When they repent, Allāh ‘Azza wa - Jalla gives softness to His servant's heart and makes him forgive with Allāh's permission. May Allāh not let us take anyone's right, Insha Allah. And may our right not be taken. May Allāh give goodness, Insha Allah. Goodness is nice. Badness causes all types of problems to people. May Allāh forgive all of us, Insha Allah.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is most Merciful and Forgiving. For this, if anybody whole life he is making sin and making bad thing, if he asks forgiveness from Allāh ‘Azza wa- Jalla, Allāh forgives him. Because door of forgiveness not closed yet. There is time to it will be closed and cannot be anybody forgiven. So until that time, in shā’a Llāh, Allāh forgive what you done. He, even whole life you done bad thing and at the end you regret and ask for forgiveness, Allāh forgive you.
For His right, everything from His right, He said, "I forgive him. I change his sins to reward."
But there is – this is very good – but there is another thing. Allāh He said, "If somebody harm people, make them bad thing for people, he must ask forgiveness from them, from people. Because this is the right of people." Right of Allāh, He is justice, He said, "I am forgive my rights, and change to it." But if he has right, people they have right on him, he must ask forgiveness from people also. Because everything, everyone he must take his right, even he is old or in wheelchair or other thing also. This is what Allāh make him to regret and ask for forgiveness. He must ask for forgiveness from people also. Because these people... Sometimes there is chance to ask for forgiveness from people. You must take this chance, not to leave it. Because you don't know after what will happen. After one hour, after even one second maybe you cannot find this time, any time more.
So, even you think you are right, you, if somebody ask something you look for him and ask for forgiveness from him. It is the best thing for you to, for Ākhirah. Because in Ākhirah there is no anything you can give from money, or gold, or jewelry, or land – nothing. You don't have anything from this. Only you have your reward. You must give from your reward for this man. If you ask forgiveness from him in dunyā, you will be reward here also and you not lose anything from your reward. So better to look for what anybody have right, anybody you harm him, anybody you take something from him not giving back – what anything you must think. Because many people they are thinking what they will take, not what will give. And this is not good. Better to think, to be safe, to give not to take. Allāh make us to accept right and to give right for anything. Anybody he want and he ask, you must research and you must look for this. Allāh make us to be safe from any right on us.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
179.YOUR ENEMY IS INSIDE YOU Friday, 27 December 2019
Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Madad. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem "Inna Llāha yaghfiru dh-dhunūba jamī‘ā" (39:53). "Wa- innī la-ghaffārul liman tāba wa-āmana wa-‘amila ṣāliḥan" (20:82). Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n: Allāh is giving people opportunities to repent so that their repentance will save them. Save them from what? Save them from shayṭān, save them from hell. It will save them in dunyā and in Ākhirah.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is giving such opportunities, just like it is said in the ḥadīth of our Prophet: "Sometimes a man sins and that sin becomes means for him to enter Paradise," says our Prophet. Ṣaḥābah were surprised "How can that be? Sins don't put people in Paradise. Sins take them to hell. How can that be, yā Rasūlu Llāh?", they asked. Ṣaḥābah were surprised. It happens that a man commits a sin and regrets doing it. He reconsiders his sin and repents with a promise not to do it again. That becomes a means for Allāh ‘Azza wa- Jalla to turn that sin into thawāb. That thawāb becomes a means for him to enter Paradise. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is so great that He turns sins into thawāb through repentance. And then it becomes salvation. Salvation is in Ākhirah.
Who reaches Paradise is saved. Before reaching Paradise, there is hardship. But Allāh doesn't want hardship. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Yurīdu Llāhu bikumu l-yusra wa-lā yurīdu bikumu l-‘usr" (2:185). Allāh doesn't want hardship for you. In Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh- Sha’n, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying this. He wants ease for you, not hardship. Who wants hardship? Man wants it. A person's ego wants hardship. All kind of harm is created by a man's own ego. Therefore, your biggest enemy is your ego, says our Prophet. "A‘dá ‘aduwwaka nafsuka llatī bayna janbayk." – "Your ego inside you always takes you to troubles. It is your biggest enemy." Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla wants ease. He even makes your sin a reason for you to enter Paradise by turning it into thawāb. Allāh wants ease.
There are hardships in dunyā, while leaving dunyā, in the grave, and on Judgment Day. There are many hardships. As we said, people create these hardships by themselves.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla promises a garden of Paradise even in the grave for believing people. And there are people who remain in heat and so much difficulty, under the sun, hungry and thirsty – not for a year, but for a thousand years. All of this because of the ego. Otherwise, for believers you would stay as long as one reading of al-Fātiḥah in the Maḥshar. That is the promise of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla.
And Allāh is giving ease to those who want it. "You do this, and it will be easy." But hardship is coming from you, Allāh doesn't oppress anyone. You should control your ego so that it doesn't put you in these bad situations. May Allāh protect us from our ego. May we deserve Allāh's mercy, Insha Allah.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying: Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. "Innī la-ghaffārul liman tāba wa-āmana wa-‘amila ṣāliḥan" (20:82). Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, He is promise, "I am the most forgive – who forgive." The most forgive. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Maybe between people sometimes something happen. They ask forgiveness. They will not give forgiveness because they have ego, they have... But Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is promise, "Who repent and ask for forgiveness, I am most who give forgiveness for people."
And, Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, also saying for, showing how Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is making forgive for people, he said, "Sometimes some make sin, somebody make sin, and this sin take him to Paradise." Companion, ṣaḥābah, they was saying, "How can be sin take you Paradise? Normally sin take you to hell." He said, Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, "Who make sin, after he know this and he put it in his front of him and he ask, ask for forgiveness and Allāh forgive him and change this sin to reward. So this take him to be reason to go to Paradise because he ask forgiveness, and Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is happy with his, for human being who ask for forgiveness. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla very happy.
Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, many ḥadīth saying about Allāh happy. And Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is, He want easiness for people. Even with sin He change it to reward and make him to enter Paradise with this sin. So everything Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla make for us to easy. To go to Paradise, it is not difficult. Allāh He open whole door for human being to enter Paradise. "How it is difficult?" they said. Allāh make it easy but who make difficult? Shayṭān and ego. They not accept this. They want bad, hard thing for them. To go, even from death for mu'min, believer, Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam saying it is like going from room to other room. In graveyard, also for mu'min
there is Paradise in his graveyard. After when he is, Day of Resurrection also, they stay mu'min believer there – some of them [the time] like to read one Fātiḥah. After quickly to Paradise. But for other, when he died it is real, difficult for them. For graveyard it is like hell, it is hell hole.
After when, for Day of Resurrection, they are waiting there thousands of years. And not like sitting or this – standing, tired, thirsty, hungry, and hot, coming boiling their brain. All this, Allāh He don't want this. But who want this? Your ego. You do this for [to] yourself. Nobody else doing this for [to] you. Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam for this he saying, "A‘dá ‘aduw[waka] nafsuka llatī bayna janbayk." – "The most terrible enemy for you, your ego who is in your side." You are following ego, it not taking to good place. You must control your ego. After this everything easy. Allāh want easiness for you: "Yurīdu Llāhu bikumu l-yusra wa-lā yurīdu bikumu l-‘usr" (2:185). Every easiness Allāh He want for you and He is calling people, "Wa-Llāhu yad‘ū ilá dāri s- salām" (10:25). Calling people to house of peace, for Paradise – this is house of peace. All people can be there if they are not be enemy for themselves. Everything, who, everyone who follow ego, he will be terrible end and life also not so good.
Allāh keep us in His mercy and give us from His endless power and to keep us in His way, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
180.THE TOP OF SIN Saturday, 28 December 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. "Inna ‘iddata sh-shuhūri ‘inda Llāhi thnā ‘ashara shahran fi kitābi Llāhi yawma khalaqa s-samāwāti wa-l-arḍ" (9:36). Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla divided the year into twelve months, years, months, days. Years pass one after another. People are born, they grow up, age, and die. Others come in their place. This year...
The years based on a lunar hijrī calendar are blessed. According to the solar calendar, the New Year is coming soon. People are getting ready for their entertainment and fun. People are excited. They think it is a great important thing. Those who do this think they are clever people. People think they are clever. This year will pass whether you celebrate it or not. Important is what you do.
A passing year is not important. If you are prepared for your Ākhirah, that is important. Preparing for New Year is nothing. For most people, this New Year's prepares them not for Ākhirah, but for hell in Ākhirah. They do sins and evil, all kinds of perversion in celebration. What are you celebrating? Celebration is honouring. You are not honoring but spoiling. It's not a smart or logical thing.
Leaving Ākhirah aside, this celebration is meaningless for dunyā as well. You are getting older and approaching death. There is nothing to celebrate. If you are young, you are growing older. If you are old, you will age more and weaken. Instead of being happy for becoming stronger, they are happy for becoming weaker. May Allāh give them understanding and protect Muslims from these things. They are meaningless, meaningless, useless, and worthless. It is not good to participate in it. You are both earning sin and wasting money. There is no benefit, no gain in valuing it and being
excited. There is only loss. There is big loss.
Allāh will forgive of course. People who repent after doing this, Allāh's door of forgiveness is open. If they repent and promise not to repeat, Allāh will forgive and turn their sins into thawāb. May Allāh give all of us understanding so that we don't do this craziness, Insha Allah.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Inna ‘iddata sh-shuhūri ‘inda Llāhi thnā ‘ashara shahran" (9:36). Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying, for year He put twelve months. It is from our Lord Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. He divide year for twelve months. And day, from beginning from hours, day, week, month, year – all this quickly running, not stopping. From beginning now but Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying for end of time "taqārubu z-zamān." Meaning: time it will be more close. Like you feel last New Year it was very near, now coming after three days, new New Year.
What is New Year? It is for sun not for moon. For Islamic one it's moon. This normal one, it is not holy, not holy at all because everything they are putting in this holy days it is false. And they even who they said birth of Sayyidunā ‘Īsá ‘alayhi s-salām – it was not this day, it was another day. But because it was Europe – day short, long night, and cold, nothing to do – so they say, they puting this day. So it was to no work, nothing; to get some fun. So with this – nothing holy in this year.
Holy [is] in qamarī, moon, Islamic. But for this also people they are very interesting [interested]. It is very – making people busy. "How we can enjoy ourself this coming New Year? It is time for doing every bad thing. What our ego like, we must give this." As it is ego, not have anything another time? "No this for more, extra, it must be to be our master – our ego. We are slave for our ego. We... Our master must be happy for us, we must do more bad thing, more wrong thing." This is people they thought themselves clever. They are giving too much respect what they are doing – serious, they take it very serious even. But when, who has brain, who has thinking, you see this is nothing can to celebrate. Year, it is going. What is it? It is same – same day, same but our getting more older, getting more weaker, and the most important from this – we are getting more near to graveyard, to death. This is how, even you are not religious, you not believe in anything, you must think this not to be happy. You must be sad because you are getting more near to death.
But people they are blind, they are deaf, they are no mind also. Not important this. This only for material enjoyment and it... They thought, "We are enjoying," but after this, morning they are going up, their head headache. They have nothing. They become more miserable from before. For this we must, the people thinking how to be more close for Allāh. This is giving real happiness. Happiness forever, not only for two seconds, two minutes, or one night. It is forever. And Allāh calling people, "Don't waste your time in mā lā ya‘nī." Mā lā ya‘nī meaning nonsense. This is real nonsense.
Nonsense what doing. You doing something no benefit. This meaning mā lā ya‘nī, and this is the top of mā lā ya‘nī, the top of... because, top of sin. Beginning from one side of world, coming to the other. Every time coming, people they making more and more sin, as it is obligatory to do this in this night.
But Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, also He is forgiving people. If they repent and ask for forgiveness, Allāh will forgive and change their sin to reward, Insha Allah. Allāh give people good thinking to come back to right way and ask forgiveness. Allāh forgive us all of us, Insha Allah.

181.THE TRUE FRIEND Sunday, 29 December 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 is the nearest to us. Allah is with us. Allah ‘azza wa jalla says in the Holy Quran, “Aqrabu ilayhi min ḥabli-lwarīd” (Qur’ān 18:16) “Closer to you than your jugular vein.” Therefore Allah ‘azza wa jalla is the most faithful one. He is Ḥayy (Living); He never changes.
The world changes, people come and go, days come and end. Those who are with Allah become His friends. The true Friend is Allah. Be with those Allah loves. Allah watches over you. Wherever you go, Allah is with you. Whether you be here or elsewhere, in Konya, Cyprus, Makkah, Madina—wherever you may be—Allah is with you. He is with you also in the life within the grave and on the Judgement Day. Eternally He is with you.
People leave Allah, and prefer Satan as their friend. They have no intellect. One ought to know his friend. Be with Allah; be friends with Allah; be friends with Allah’s beloved servants, so that you may not say that you were deceived. As long as you are with Allah, all beauty is with you, and all goodness stays with you.
May Allah make us all to be [His] friends. May He have us amongst those whom He loves, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
182.THE CAUSE OF SICKNESSES Monday, 30 December 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.
The stomach is home to sickness, and the first remedy is to be protected. One should take care of what one eats. One should eat what is halal so one won’t become sick. As the holy Prophet (SAW) says that material and spiritual sicknesses are the same in that the place of every sickness is the stomach. It needs to be protected: one should take care of what he eats; one must eat what is halal. Eating from what Allah allows will benefit you; your well-being will be maintained. A person will be relaxed, and not suffer.
A person suffers from his own doings, because Allah provided benefit in everything, provided benefit and strength. Today people eat little variety. What people in the past ate, today people do not eat, then they say,“ This or that happened and we are sick...” All kinds of sicknesses occur. Some are incurable, but Allah helps with some of them, and they receive healing, but there are a lot of sicknesses which are incurable, unfortunately. Of course, one may not die from a sickness even though it is incurable, but the person might suffer from it for years or all of his life. There is no need for this to happen. Allah bestowed this body upon you as a trust. It is a good deed to take care of it; to abuse it harms you and also causes you to betray Allah’s trust.
So it is necessary to take care of what to eat and what not to eat. Especially so now that there are these newly fashioned food. Things that come from Europe, America—it is not really known what they are. They send food and drinks of all types, and we eat and drink them happily. They abandon our beautiful provisions and go to unnecessary things. Allah created many varieties—for every season there is different type of suitable food. These [new foods] are far from it, but like [for] donkeys or animals. Donkeys do not get tired of hay; every day they eat hay. Is it possible to eat the same thing every day? It has to be different. In every season different things should be eaten. May Allah provide what is halal, and may what we eat give healing to us, Insha Allah. Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
183.NEW YEAR Tuesday, 31 December 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.
“Wa-dhakkir, fa’inna -dh-dhikrā tanfa‘u -l-mu’minīn” (Qur’ān 51:55) “Keep admonishing (or “reminding”), for indeed admonishment benefits the believers.”
Allah ‘azza wa jalla asks us to remind the believers. There is benefit in reminding. Why do we say this? Because once again tonight there is this event called New Year’s Eve. To satisfy egos, people make up such ridiculous days, and then consider them important occasions and regard it as a duty [to celebrate] them. They assume that rebelling against Allah and being slaves of their egos is their duty.
May Allah give minds and thoughtfulness to these people, because this is an event which has no meaning. Its meaning is beginning of the year. A year is over; another year starts—not very important. Every day we already spend a day from our lives. A day ends and then another; a month ends and [then] a year. Allah ‘azza wa jalla has appointed months and years—no need to be rebellious. On the contrary, “One more year is over in our lives, so what wrongs did we do? What kinds of badness?” This must be the question to ask, and [then to] ask for forgiveness. It is necessary to repent for our sins that we have committed in the year. If you still respect the beginning of the year, then welcome it with repentance rather than with rebellious actions. Or one must think something such as, “However much we rebelled, may Allah forgive us.” This would be something better. Otherwise, you already spent the year doing evil, and then you will spend the night with more evil. It is necessary to know that there is no good but rather loss in this. This is just a word said here, but of course believers already know these things. They do not get involved in such stupid things. All those who obey their egos, serve the ego, forget Allah. They worship their ego, worship Satan, and then expect something good. No, it does not happen this way. May Allah guide them, give them intelligence. We say nothing more. Not only these, but people all over the world, Muslim and non-Muslim give importance to this. This is not something to consider important. As I said earlier, it is [an occasion] to remind again. Allah draws a limit for everything. This is the boundary of the year. Twelve months end; a new year starts. May every new day come for us, Insha Allah. May each one be good and not [something] for evil. May the year be beneficial for Islam. May kufr be defeated this year, Insha Allah. This is
because oppression is at its peak all over the world. Every night it is said that one country or another is welcoming a new year, while in another country oppression is at its peak. The second country enters a new year. It is bad, and the other one is even worse. The greatest injustice is done against Islam, against Muslims. Muslims should not be happy for such an event but upset.
May Allah send a savior. May He send Mahdi (AS). May He save us from these astonishing things, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

Because shayṭān from first day of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, his prophecy, he is become enemy for him. Now we see everywhere around the world they are making against Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam.

Allāh curse them every time they attacking Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. And, Alhamdulilah, we are happy with Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. If we are happy, he is happy also with us. Every time we make ṣalawāt, Allāh rewards us same like him, because this is His promise.

177.QUDRATU LLĀH Wednesday, 25 December 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. "Wa-mā ūtītum mina l-‘ilmi illā qalīlā" (17:85). Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n: "What you know is little. What you don't know is much." Allāh's knowledge is unlimited.
People study at universities and think they know everything. Universities don't have quality anymore. They sank to the level of the old middle schools. Whoever you ask, they are not aware of anything. And they boast about attending a university. They think a lot of themselves and make judgments. They don't like Allāh's orders. They assume they have knowledge as if they know everything, deciding this can be done and that cannot. They do things as they like. And when it is like this, it is not knowledge, it is heedlessness. Knowledge is in the presence of Allāh.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Wa-kullu shay’in ‘indahu bimiqdār" (13:8). Everything has its accounting. Everything has its measure near Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla.
Don't look at dervishes and think that is Allāh's knowledge. That dervish has devoted himself to Allāh. He is saved. But all the knowledge is in the presence of Allāh. They think hard for years and learn something. And that is as nothing in the presence of Allāh. Allāh made everything to a measure. Everything is made to a measure. There are things Allāh lets us know. We have to follow them. Our belief in them and our following of them make us comfortable. It makes comfort both here and hereafter. If you don't believe in them and start looking for knowledge as you like, you won't have peace - not here, nor hereafter.
Allah created this world and worlds. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla created the universe. His Allāh power cannot be comprehended. If there was a mind a trillion times smarter than
our mind, it would still not be able to comprehend Allāh's knowledge. Therefore, a Muslim person should submit himself. Allāh appointed these things for us, so they are useful. You should say "āmannā wa ṣaddaqnā". You should obey. And you should know this about Allāh's knowledge.
"Wa-liLlāhi mā fi s-samāwāti wa-mā fi l-arḍ" (3:109). Everything is in Allāh's hands. Everything in heaven and on earth is in His knowledge. He knows the number of each atom. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla knows every atom.
Subḥāna Rabbiya l-‘alayyi l-‘aẓīm. Allāhu Akbaru l-Akbar. No one is greater than Allāh. Allāh is ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n. Everything has submitted itself to His power. "Wa-khaḍa‘a kullu shay’in li-qudratihi." Everything has submitted to His power. Shukr to Allāh, He and who submit themselves to made us in the position of those who believe in Him, Him. May Allāh let this favour continue upon us.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying: Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Wa-mā ūtītum mina l-‘ilmi illā qalīlā" (17:85). Allāh says in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n, "What you have from knowledge, science everything, it is very little, very small thing you learn." But people they thought if they have, they finish university, or they are in university, they become very proud. They thought they are have everything from knowledge. And even, what they are saying "we are in university", the level of university become lower and lower and lower.
From like time of Mawlānā, maybe secondary school it is more knowledgeable than this university now. Everywhere university just come, you can pay money and go to university. Not learning anything and take your diploma certificate and you are from university. And they are proud. They are not accepting anything from, even for dunyā, for... they are objecting for anything and they are saying, "This good, this not good." And they are, after they destroy everything and nothing left for them. This is for dunyā for material world. But for Ākhirah also they are also proud. They said, "No, nothing there. No, nothing." What you learn? You are proud from your knowledge, it is not even one atom from Allāh's knowledge. Allāh's knowledge it is endless. You sit you study three, four years in university or more, you make doctora, Ph and other what thing. You are very proud. You thought you know everything. No, you not know anything at all. Very very very small. And this is, what you learn – it is not benefit for you. It harming you. Maybe if you didn't learn this, you will be more believer, more obeying one.
So, to be obedient you must have knowledge and you must surround [surrender] for His, Allāh's ability –what Qudrat? – Qudrat, Power, Insha Allah. His Power what it is endless. You cannot put any limit for this. You cannot describe at all what His Power, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, Power. But people they thought they have, they can do anything. Very small thing, everything here like bomb. From very small thing Allāh can destroy whole this- not only world, whole universe. Everything around us with His Power, His Qudrat, standing. If His order one, He will finish everything. Don't think you have power, you have knowledge. Your knowledge not knowledge, it's rubbish, only rubbish if you are not accepting Power of our Lord Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla.
So it is, people this time, end of time, whole proud. They don't know anything. They don't know the last day. They don't know the life of barzakh, which it is after death, you will be put you in grave, and in the grave even it is paradise or if it is hell. So until Qiyāmah you will be there. In Qiyāmah you have, you will ask and you go for hell or for paradise. All this they don't know. They not accept, they don't know. You don't know it is. You said, "I am clever, I studied university." So you are responsible, and you will be asked why you didn't accept this.
And you said you have university certificate, you have everything. You are clever and you not accept this. So you will be asked for this. You said, "I don't know." You don't know? You was denying, running away from this. So it is a knowledge, real knowledge to know this and to practice what Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla and accept Allāh, ask for forgiveness from Him. If you ask for forgiveness, you will be saved here and hereafter. Don't be ignorant. You don't be ignorant. When you more studying, some people becoming more ignorant, some people becoming more knowledgeable.
Who... Because everything showing the Creator. So, clever one they see when, what from knowledge, Lord Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Some of them they not knowing – this is ignorant. Two people, two kinds of people. Allāh make, thanking for Allāh to make us from who accept Him and to be beloved for Him, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
178.ASK FORGIVENESS FROM PEOPLE Thursday, 26 December 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.
Allāh forgives sins. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla: "Inna Llāha ghafūrur raḥīm" (24:62). Forgiving and Merciful is Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. No matter how much sin people make, Allāh ‘Azza wa- Jalla still forgives them. As long as they repent, Allāh's right is forgiven. If they sin throughout their life and ask forgiveness before they die, Allāh says He will forgive. If they don't repeat it, they will be forgiven. And who has taken someone's right, he should ask forgiveness from him just like he asks forgiveness from Allāh. He should ask for their blessing, to be in peace.
Because Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla owns justice. He owns justice and says, "It is My servant's right." If they forgive, they know it for themselves. If they don't, they will get it in the hereafter; they will get their right on Judgment Day. If you don't give someone's right in dunyā, certainly it will be taken in Ākhirah.
As we said, Allāh's right, Allāh is saying, "I am forgiving." "Wa-innī la-ghaffārul liman tāba wa-āman" (20:82). "I am extremely forgiving." Ghaffār meaning forgiving those who repent and believe, says Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Therefore, we have to be careful about people's rights. Even if you are 100% sure, it is better to question and ask if there is any right on you and ask for blessings. And if your right has been taken, it is good to give blessings and make peace, with Allāh's permission. It is an issue for everyone. Because some people show arrogance thinking they are something. But who is humble and forgiving, in the presence of Allāh, is more acceptable. Even if there are people who are 80 or 90 years old, who may have made mistakes throughout their lives, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla still forgives.
And regarding the rights of servants, it is different whether you did wrong knowingly or without knowing. Because sometimes people make mistakes. When they repent, Allāh ‘Azza wa - Jalla gives softness to His servant's heart and makes him forgive with Allāh's permission. May Allāh not let us take anyone's right, Insha Allah. And may our right not be taken. May Allāh give goodness, Insha Allah. Goodness is nice. Badness causes all types of problems to people. May Allāh forgive all of us, Insha Allah.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is most Merciful and Forgiving. For this, if anybody whole life he is making sin and making bad thing, if he asks forgiveness from Allāh ‘Azza wa- Jalla, Allāh forgives him. Because door of forgiveness not closed yet. There is time to it will be closed and cannot be anybody forgiven. So until that time, in shā’a Llāh, Allāh forgive what you done. He, even whole life you done bad thing and at the end you regret and ask for forgiveness, Allāh forgive you.
For His right, everything from His right, He said, "I forgive him. I change his sins to reward."
But there is – this is very good – but there is another thing. Allāh He said, "If somebody harm people, make them bad thing for people, he must ask forgiveness from them, from people. Because this is the right of people." Right of Allāh, He is justice, He said, "I am forgive my rights, and change to it." But if he has right, people they have right on him, he must ask forgiveness from people also. Because everything, everyone he must take his right, even he is old or in wheelchair or other thing also. This is what Allāh make him to regret and ask for forgiveness. He must ask for forgiveness from people also. Because these people... Sometimes there is chance to ask for forgiveness from people. You must take this chance, not to leave it. Because you don't know after what will happen. After one hour, after even one second maybe you cannot find this time, any time more.
So, even you think you are right, you, if somebody ask something you look for him and ask for forgiveness from him. It is the best thing for you to, for Ākhirah. Because in Ākhirah there is no anything you can give from money, or gold, or jewelry, or land – nothing. You don't have anything from this. Only you have your reward. You must give from your reward for this man. If you ask forgiveness from him in dunyā, you will be reward here also and you not lose anything from your reward. So better to look for what anybody have right, anybody you harm him, anybody you take something from him not giving back – what anything you must think. Because many people they are thinking what they will take, not what will give. And this is not good. Better to think, to be safe, to give not to take. Allāh make us to accept right and to give right for anything. Anybody he want and he ask, you must research and you must look for this. Allāh make us to be safe from any right on us.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
179.YOUR ENEMY IS INSIDE YOU Friday, 27 December 2019
Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Madad. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem "Inna Llāha yaghfiru dh-dhunūba jamī‘ā" (39:53). "Wa- innī la-ghaffārul liman tāba wa-āmana wa-‘amila ṣāliḥan" (20:82). Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n: Allāh is giving people opportunities to repent so that their repentance will save them. Save them from what? Save them from shayṭān, save them from hell. It will save them in dunyā and in Ākhirah.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is giving such opportunities, just like it is said in the ḥadīth of our Prophet: "Sometimes a man sins and that sin becomes means for him to enter Paradise," says our Prophet. Ṣaḥābah were surprised "How can that be? Sins don't put people in Paradise. Sins take them to hell. How can that be, yā Rasūlu Llāh?", they asked. Ṣaḥābah were surprised. It happens that a man commits a sin and regrets doing it. He reconsiders his sin and repents with a promise not to do it again. That becomes a means for Allāh ‘Azza wa- Jalla to turn that sin into thawāb. That thawāb becomes a means for him to enter Paradise. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is so great that He turns sins into thawāb through repentance. And then it becomes salvation. Salvation is in Ākhirah.
Who reaches Paradise is saved. Before reaching Paradise, there is hardship. But Allāh doesn't want hardship. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Yurīdu Llāhu bikumu l-yusra wa-lā yurīdu bikumu l-‘usr" (2:185). Allāh doesn't want hardship for you. In Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh- Sha’n, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying this. He wants ease for you, not hardship. Who wants hardship? Man wants it. A person's ego wants hardship. All kind of harm is created by a man's own ego. Therefore, your biggest enemy is your ego, says our Prophet. "A‘dá ‘aduwwaka nafsuka llatī bayna janbayk." – "Your ego inside you always takes you to troubles. It is your biggest enemy." Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla wants ease. He even makes your sin a reason for you to enter Paradise by turning it into thawāb. Allāh wants ease.
There are hardships in dunyā, while leaving dunyā, in the grave, and on Judgment Day. There are many hardships. As we said, people create these hardships by themselves.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla promises a garden of Paradise even in the grave for believing people. And there are people who remain in heat and so much difficulty, under the sun, hungry and thirsty – not for a year, but for a thousand years. All of this because of the ego. Otherwise, for believers you would stay as long as one reading of al-Fātiḥah in the Maḥshar. That is the promise of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla.
And Allāh is giving ease to those who want it. "You do this, and it will be easy." But hardship is coming from you, Allāh doesn't oppress anyone. You should control your ego so that it doesn't put you in these bad situations. May Allāh protect us from our ego. May we deserve Allāh's mercy, Insha Allah.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying: Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. "Innī la-ghaffārul liman tāba wa-āmana wa-‘amila ṣāliḥan" (20:82). Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, He is promise, "I am the most forgive – who forgive." The most forgive. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Maybe between people sometimes something happen. They ask forgiveness. They will not give forgiveness because they have ego, they have... But Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is promise, "Who repent and ask for forgiveness, I am most who give forgiveness for people."
And, Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, also saying for, showing how Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is making forgive for people, he said, "Sometimes some make sin, somebody make sin, and this sin take him to Paradise." Companion, ṣaḥābah, they was saying, "How can be sin take you Paradise? Normally sin take you to hell." He said, Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, "Who make sin, after he know this and he put it in his front of him and he ask, ask for forgiveness and Allāh forgive him and change this sin to reward. So this take him to be reason to go to Paradise because he ask forgiveness, and Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is happy with his, for human being who ask for forgiveness. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla very happy.
Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, many ḥadīth saying about Allāh happy. And Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is, He want easiness for people. Even with sin He change it to reward and make him to enter Paradise with this sin. So everything Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla make for us to easy. To go to Paradise, it is not difficult. Allāh He open whole door for human being to enter Paradise. "How it is difficult?" they said. Allāh make it easy but who make difficult? Shayṭān and ego. They not accept this. They want bad, hard thing for them. To go, even from death for mu'min, believer, Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam saying it is like going from room to other room. In graveyard, also for mu'min
there is Paradise in his graveyard. After when he is, Day of Resurrection also, they stay mu'min believer there – some of them [the time] like to read one Fātiḥah. After quickly to Paradise. But for other, when he died it is real, difficult for them. For graveyard it is like hell, it is hell hole.
After when, for Day of Resurrection, they are waiting there thousands of years. And not like sitting or this – standing, tired, thirsty, hungry, and hot, coming boiling their brain. All this, Allāh He don't want this. But who want this? Your ego. You do this for [to] yourself. Nobody else doing this for [to] you. Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam for this he saying, "A‘dá ‘aduw[waka] nafsuka llatī bayna janbayk." – "The most terrible enemy for you, your ego who is in your side." You are following ego, it not taking to good place. You must control your ego. After this everything easy. Allāh want easiness for you: "Yurīdu Llāhu bikumu l-yusra wa-lā yurīdu bikumu l-‘usr" (2:185). Every easiness Allāh He want for you and He is calling people, "Wa-Llāhu yad‘ū ilá dāri s- salām" (10:25). Calling people to house of peace, for Paradise – this is house of peace. All people can be there if they are not be enemy for themselves. Everything, who, everyone who follow ego, he will be terrible end and life also not so good.
Allāh keep us in His mercy and give us from His endless power and to keep us in His way, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
180.THE TOP OF SIN Saturday, 28 December 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. "Inna ‘iddata sh-shuhūri ‘inda Llāhi thnā ‘ashara shahran fi kitābi Llāhi yawma khalaqa s-samāwāti wa-l-arḍ" (9:36). Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla divided the year into twelve months, years, months, days. Years pass one after another. People are born, they grow up, age, and die. Others come in their place. This year...
The years based on a lunar hijrī calendar are blessed. According to the solar calendar, the New Year is coming soon. People are getting ready for their entertainment and fun. People are excited. They think it is a great important thing. Those who do this think they are clever people. People think they are clever. This year will pass whether you celebrate it or not. Important is what you do.
A passing year is not important. If you are prepared for your Ākhirah, that is important. Preparing for New Year is nothing. For most people, this New Year's prepares them not for Ākhirah, but for hell in Ākhirah. They do sins and evil, all kinds of perversion in celebration. What are you celebrating? Celebration is honouring. You are not honoring but spoiling. It's not a smart or logical thing.
Leaving Ākhirah aside, this celebration is meaningless for dunyā as well. You are getting older and approaching death. There is nothing to celebrate. If you are young, you are growing older. If you are old, you will age more and weaken. Instead of being happy for becoming stronger, they are happy for becoming weaker. May Allāh give them understanding and protect Muslims from these things. They are meaningless, meaningless, useless, and worthless. It is not good to participate in it. You are both earning sin and wasting money. There is no benefit, no gain in valuing it and being
excited. There is only loss. There is big loss.
Allāh will forgive of course. People who repent after doing this, Allāh's door of forgiveness is open. If they repent and promise not to repeat, Allāh will forgive and turn their sins into thawāb. May Allāh give all of us understanding so that we don't do this craziness, Insha Allah.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Inna ‘iddata sh-shuhūri ‘inda Llāhi thnā ‘ashara shahran" (9:36). Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying, for year He put twelve months. It is from our Lord Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. He divide year for twelve months. And day, from beginning from hours, day, week, month, year – all this quickly running, not stopping. From beginning now but Prophet sallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying for end of time "taqārubu z-zamān." Meaning: time it will be more close. Like you feel last New Year it was very near, now coming after three days, new New Year.
What is New Year? It is for sun not for moon. For Islamic one it's moon. This normal one, it is not holy, not holy at all because everything they are putting in this holy days it is false. And they even who they said birth of Sayyidunā ‘Īsá ‘alayhi s-salām – it was not this day, it was another day. But because it was Europe – day short, long night, and cold, nothing to do – so they say, they puting this day. So it was to no work, nothing; to get some fun. So with this – nothing holy in this year.
Holy [is] in qamarī, moon, Islamic. But for this also people they are very interesting [interested]. It is very – making people busy. "How we can enjoy ourself this coming New Year? It is time for doing every bad thing. What our ego like, we must give this." As it is ego, not have anything another time? "No this for more, extra, it must be to be our master – our ego. We are slave for our ego. We... Our master must be happy for us, we must do more bad thing, more wrong thing." This is people they thought themselves clever. They are giving too much respect what they are doing – serious, they take it very serious even. But when, who has brain, who has thinking, you see this is nothing can to celebrate. Year, it is going. What is it? It is same – same day, same but our getting more older, getting more weaker, and the most important from this – we are getting more near to graveyard, to death. This is how, even you are not religious, you not believe in anything, you must think this not to be happy. You must be sad because you are getting more near to death.
But people they are blind, they are deaf, they are no mind also. Not important this. This only for material enjoyment and it... They thought, "We are enjoying," but after this, morning they are going up, their head headache. They have nothing. They become more miserable from before. For this we must, the people thinking how to be more close for Allāh. This is giving real happiness. Happiness forever, not only for two seconds, two minutes, or one night. It is forever. And Allāh calling people, "Don't waste your time in mā lā ya‘nī." Mā lā ya‘nī meaning nonsense. This is real nonsense.
Nonsense what doing. You doing something no benefit. This meaning mā lā ya‘nī, and this is the top of mā lā ya‘nī, the top of... because, top of sin. Beginning from one side of world, coming to the other. Every time coming, people they making more and more sin, as it is obligatory to do this in this night.
But Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, also He is forgiving people. If they repent and ask for forgiveness, Allāh will forgive and change their sin to reward, Insha Allah. Allāh give people good thinking to come back to right way and ask forgiveness. Allāh forgive us all of us, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
181.THE TRUE FRIEND Sunday, 29 December 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 is the nearest to us. Allah is with us. Allah ‘azza wa jalla says in the Holy Quran, “Aqrabu ilayhi min ḥabli-lwarīd” (Qur’ān 18:16) “Closer to you than your jugular vein.” Therefore Allah ‘azza wa jalla is the most faithful one. He is Ḥayy (Living); He never changes.
The world changes, people come and go, days come and end. Those who are with Allah become His friends. The true Friend is Allah. Be with those Allah loves. Allah watches over you. Wherever you go, Allah is with you. Whether you be here or elsewhere, in Konya, Cyprus, Makkah, Madina—wherever you may be—Allah is with you. He is with you also in the life within the grave and on the Judgement Day. Eternally He is with you.
People leave Allah, and prefer Satan as their friend. They have no intellect. One ought to know his friend. Be with Allah; be friends with Allah; be friends with Allah’s beloved servants, so that you may not say that you were deceived. As long as you are with Allah, all beauty is with you, and all goodness stays with you.
May Allah make us all to be [His] friends. May He have us amongst those whom He loves, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
182.THE CAUSE OF SICKNESSES Monday, 30 December 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.
The stomach is home to sickness, and the first remedy is to be protected. One should take care of what one eats. One should eat what is halal so one won’t become sick. As the holy Prophet (SAW) says that material and spiritual sicknesses are the same in that the place of every sickness is the stomach. It needs to be protected: one should take care of what he eats; one must eat what is halal. Eating from what Allah allows will benefit you; your well-being will be maintained. A person will be relaxed, and not suffer.
A person suffers from his own doings, because Allah provided benefit in everything, provided benefit and strength. Today people eat little variety. What people in the past ate, today people do not eat, then they say,“ This or that happened and we are sick...” All kinds of sicknesses occur. Some are incurable, but Allah helps with some of them, and they receive healing, but there are a lot of sicknesses which are incurable, unfortunately. Of course, one may not die from a sickness even though it is incurable, but the person might suffer from it for years or all of his life. There is no need for this to happen. Allah bestowed this body upon you as a trust. It is a good deed to take care of it; to abuse it harms you and also causes you to betray Allah’s trust.
So it is necessary to take care of what to eat and what not to eat. Especially so now that there are these newly fashioned food. Things that come from Europe, America—it is not really known what they are. They send food and drinks of all types, and we eat and drink them happily. They abandon our beautiful provisions and go to unnecessary things. Allah created many varieties—for every season there is different type of suitable food. These [new foods] are far from it, but like [for] donkeys or animals. Donkeys do not get tired of hay; every day they eat hay. Is it possible to eat the same thing every day? It has to be different. In every season different things should be eaten. May Allah provide what is halal, and may what we eat give healing to us, Insha Allah. Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
183.NEW YEAR Tuesday, 31 December 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.
“Wa-dhakkir, fa’inna -dh-dhikrā tanfa‘u -l-mu’minīn” (Qur’ān 51:55) “Keep admonishing (or “reminding”), for indeed admonishment benefits the believers.”
Allah ‘azza wa jalla asks us to remind the believers. There is benefit in reminding. Why do we say this? Because once again tonight there is this event called New Year’s Eve. To satisfy egos, people make up such ridiculous days, and then consider them important occasions and regard it as a duty [to celebrate] them. They assume that rebelling against Allah and being slaves of their egos is their duty.
May Allah give minds and thoughtfulness to these people, because this is an event which has no meaning. Its meaning is beginning of the year. A year is over; another year starts—not very important. Every day we already spend a day from our lives. A day ends and then another; a month ends and [then] a year. Allah ‘azza wa jalla has appointed months and years—no need to be rebellious. On the contrary, “One more year is over in our lives, so what wrongs did we do? What kinds of badness?” This must be the question to ask, and [then to] ask for forgiveness. It is necessary to repent for our sins that we have committed in the year. If you still respect the beginning of the year, then welcome it with repentance rather than with rebellious actions. Or one must think something such as, “However much we rebelled, may Allah forgive us.” This would be something better. Otherwise, you already spent the year doing evil, and then you will spend the night with more evil. It is necessary to know that there is no good but rather loss in this. This is just a word said here, but of course believers already know these things. They do not get involved in such stupid things. All those who obey their egos, serve the ego, forget Allah. They worship their ego, worship Satan, and then expect something good. No, it does not happen this way. May Allah guide them, give them intelligence. We say nothing more. Not only these, but people all over the world, Muslim and non-Muslim give importance to this. This is not something to consider important. As I said earlier, it is [an occasion] to remind again. Allah draws a limit for everything. This is the boundary of the year. Twelve months end; a new year starts. May every new day come for us, Insha Allah. May each one be good and not [something] for evil. May the year be beneficial for Islam. May kufr be defeated this year, Insha Allah. This is
because oppression is at its peak all over the world. Every night it is said that one country or another is welcoming a new year, while in another country oppression is at its peak. The second country enters a new year. It is bad, and the other one is even worse. The greatest injustice is done against Islam, against Muslims. Muslims should not be happy for such an event but upset.
May Allah send a savior. May He send Mahdi (AS). May He save us from these astonishing things, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
