it too?
Then, we have to make Dua that Allah protect us and that Allah not put us in such situations, because everything is in the power of Allah. Most of the time, you look and think, “What’s going on? What are they doing?” about people you never expected them to do so.
That’s why we have to train our own ego and keep it under control insha’Allah. May Allah help us. It seems easy but it is hard work. You
have to do it constantly, and you need Allah’s help. If you beg Allah, Allah will help you. Therefore, may Allah help us. May Allah protect us from the evil of our egos. The evil of the ego is worse than the evil of shaytan.
May Allah protect us.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
8.THE GREATEST HONOR Friday, 31 January 2020
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 brothers are miserable. A person who has a favor but does not benefit from that favor is foolish. The majority are from those kinds of people. Not only do they not benefit from it, they are an enemy. They are unfortunate, they have no luck. They are like people who have favors, have water, but are parched with thirst. They do not appreciate this favor. They are foolish, their minds are limited. They say, “We are smart, we read this, we read that, we finished this, we read those books”, but they are not.
Being from the Ummah Muhammadiyya is the greatest favor, the greatest honor. It is something that the prophets demanded. They wanted to be from the Ummah of Muhammad instead of being prophets. But it was their duty and they accepted it. Allah gave the best of worship and favors to our Holy Prophet. Our Holy Prophet was sent as the last prophet and he completed all the religion. Islam is the most perfect religion. There is no other religion and no other prophet after it. This religion is eternal. This religion is the religion of Allah. Allah granted this to our Holy Prophet. May Allah make us appreciate this favor.
There are many people who have showed up now saying that they are Muslims but do not respect our Holy Prophet. They are unlucky. They say there is no intercession, they say don’t ask for Madad (help) and they talk nonsense. They are unfortunate because without the love of our Holy Prophet, there is no benefit to people. They say not to put anything
between Allah and the servant, but they themselves put the biggest thing. They do not put our Holy Prophet, Awliya and righteous ones, but they put their own egos between them and Allah. The ego is worse than the shaytan. They do not put Allah and the Qur’an, they put the greatest shaytan, their ego. And their luck is bad because they have fallen into this state. May Allah not put us in this state.
May Allah strengthen our faith. May we have a great love for our Holy Prophet Insha Allah. May Allah protect us.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
9.ALLAH’S COUNTLESS ARMIES Sunday, 2 February 2020 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 ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying, "Wa-liLlāhi junūdu s-samāwāti wa-l-arḍ" (48:7). The armies of Heavens and Earths are under the command of Allāh.
What kind of armies are they? Are there tanks, guns, rockets and planes? Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla has all kinds of armies. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla has undefeatable armies. Who fights against Allāh is foolish and crazy. Mankind thinks he rules over the world now. While they say, "We have the biggest army in the world. No one can touch us. We can defeat anyone," Allāh made one of His very small armies to destroy them. The whole world is alarmed. He frightened the people with the biggest army and the whole country became frozen. Allāh is Great. Who wants to fight against Allāh is foolish.
It happened like this once before during Mawlānā's time. He was saying that was Allah's army, an invisible army. No need for a big army. If one angel is sent, for him they will not be even as big as a chickpea. No need for that. An invisible army was sent, and they are destroyed. Why? Because they went beyond oppression. They tore and burned the Qur’ān. Mankind went further, they reached the last level of unbelief. So they got a slap. And this slap came to the unbelievers. If Muslims want to be protected, they should return to Allāh. They should repent and ask forgiveness. Nothing will happen to them with Allāh's permission. But those who are with those others, who see them and think they are doing
right and try to act in same way, they will be punished.
Brothers keep asking, "What's this? What shall we do?" Pay your ṣadaqah. It will protect you from accidents, sicknesses, and everything. And then repent. "We are begging you, O Allāh We are happy with Your judgement. We are not with those people. We are not against You. We obey You." Say this so that you do not get punished.
It is a big miracle in fact. People think it is a disaster but it is a clear miracle of Allah. A person who claims that he is the bravest in the whole world, cannot open his mouth against this oppression. Because these people have big armies, he said, "We can't deal with them. We would rather stay silent." You keep silent. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla won't remain silent. When it comes against the work of Allah, Allah doesn't fear anyone and won't look at consequences. People in this world think how it will turn out when they are thinking to do something. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla doesn't worry about that. He doesn't worry about the end. "Wa-l-‘āqibatu lil muttaqīn" (28:83). A good end is for those who are God fearing. They will have a good ending. And a bad end is for those who go against Allah and do not accept Allah. There is nothing to be afraid of. Fear Allah and you won't need to fear anything else. This is the summary of this issue.
This world is not where we will live forever. In this world, we have things to do, duties to keep for Akhirah. We should do those things. The biggest thing is to fear Allah, to be a friend of Don't oppose Allāh
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying: Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Wa-liLlāhi junūdu s- samāwāti wa-l-arḍ, wa-kāna Llāhu ‘azīzan ḥakīma" (48:7). The army, all... There's armies in Earth, in Heaven. This for Allah ‘Azza wa- Jalla, our Lord. What army? This every country they have army. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, has and Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla He has countless armies. No need for Him missiles, or tanks, or destroyer, or jet fighter, or guns, or cannons. No need for Him this. His army more stronger. There is army, small and big and bigger and giant army. But Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla for, His people fighting against Him and they said, "Our army the biggest army in the world! No one can stop in front of our because afraid.
But Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is not afraid. Especially when they're coming disrespect for Him and for His Holy Book, Qur’ān. They make very bad thing these unbeliever people. There now fashion to burn Qur’ān everywhere, to step on it. And they thought, "O we are strong. Nobody can do this, anything." But the Owner of universe the, He is fighting with them. So, no chance for them. And now He send one army to fight with them. In two weeks whole world become crazy, afraid, trembling. We go everywhere we see people they put mask on their nose, their face and they are really afraid. They said, "This is virus. This is," I don't know.
This is the biggest miracle, it is not disaster It is miracle from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, to show people how Allah He is exist and He is fighting with them, with a very small army, even we cannot see by eyes. Without seeing, they are fighting and they are finishing people. No need for big one. If... There is also big one, for big army, one of His army, you are not like even like peanut, whole your world in front of him, is this one army, one soldier from His army, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. So you must be happy, not to afraid, because we see to make people more, because no belief these days they make everybody to think it is nothing, nobody – "We are coming here just like this, and we go like nothing after this." But no! There is our Lord Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, He is showing with this miracle to people, how He is exist and He is, with this very small thing, showing people. But unfortunately people they are not thinking for this. Thinking, "How we can protect ourself, how we can save ourself from this?" They put adver saying, but the most to protect yourself you must – Prophet saying – for sadaqah, you put everyday sadaqah and say, " Astaghfirullah. We are O our Lord forgive us, we are not from these people. We are with You, not with them. We are not fighting with You. We are fighting our ego. We are not with these people and we cannot fight them. You fight them. We cannot fight because we are weak, but You are the biggest, Allahu Akbar."
So no worry for who is believer. Who is Muslim, he mustn't be afraid
from this. Everything from Allah. Allah, who deserve this, He will take him. Who is with Him, Insha Allah, safe. Now also there is many earthquake happen. Also people, Muslim people especially, they are cheated by unbeliever. They have doubt, very much doubt. So all this to make... When you are afraid for this you say, "Al-‘āqibatu lil-muttaqīn" (28:83). The end for who afraid from Allah. Without fear nobody looking for Ākhirah. Some must be fear, fear from Allāh and repent and come back to Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla.Otherwise you are not safe. So, this is what happened. No need for believer, for Muslim, to be afraid, to be anxious. This all from Allah and "khayruhu wa-sharruhu mina Llāha ta‘ālá" (good and bad is from Allah) , this is our belief. So Allah, protect us and punish those who are oppressor , punish them Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
10.REPENT TO ALLAH Monday, 3 February 2020
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 saying, "Wa-tūbū ilá Llāhi jamī‘a" (24:31). All of you repent to Allah. Mankind is sinful. Allah created them to make mistakes and to forgive them. He promised to accept their repentance. If you make a sin, do good after it, says our Prophet "Wa-atbi‘ s-sayyi’ata l- ḥasanata tamhuhā." When you do goodness after your sin, it will clear your wrong. No sin will remain. You will have repented and be as if you didn't sin. This is addressed to all people, not only to Muslims but also to unbelievers. They should repent and return to Allah so that their wrongdoing is erased. Allāh forgives when asked for forgiveness. But if you don't ask for forgiveness from Allah, Allah will give you all kinds of hardship and troubles. He makes people taste this in dunyā before Ākhirah. Evil brings nothing but evil. And goodness brings goodness.
All nations in this world, by the wisdom of Allah, not just one place but all these billions of people, are afraid of this illness – wondering where it came from. From Allāh. Everything comes from Allah. Allah didn't give it to you as a reward. He gave it because of your wildness, in order for you to remember Him. When you are punished, what do you do? You repent so that Allah forgives you. May Allah take this hardship off our shoulders. We always ask forgiveness.
May Allah forgive us. May Allah protect us. May it not be a punishment for us.
When you repent and ask forgiveness, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla turns sins into thaw. Therefore, we are lucky to be Muslims, to be believing ones. Mankind doesn't know this. They think lucky people are those who live in Europe and who live in America. They are not lucky. Lucky are those who know Allah, lucky are Muslims who believe in Allah. The rest is nothing. Even if they live for fifty or a hundred years, people pass away from a little thing. A man can live in the biggest house in the world, in the richest country in the world, it has no benefit. Benefit is in faith. Lucky is the believing servant, a Muslim servant.
Don't bother yourself with other illnesses and sicknesses. Depend on Allah and you won't care. Allah is with those who are with Him. He gives to those who ask for a cure.
"Pray, and I will accept your prayer." Allah protects. May Allah protect all of us. May Allah protect Muslim servants. May nothing happen to any of them, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
11.REPENT TO ALLAH Monday, 3 February 2020
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh.
Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying: Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Wa-tūbū ilá Llāhi jamī‘a" (24:31). Repent for Allah all of you. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying because human being, Allah create them to do wrong, to do sin, to do everything and, but to remember Allah and to ask for forgiveness from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla.
Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying, "If I... all of you, you be obedient people, I will create people who making sin making to forgive them. I like to forgive people."
So all this people, human being, not saying for only Muslim, for whole human being, "Repent, ask for forgiveness from Me. If you ask forgiveness, I will give, I am happy to forgive you." But people they are not asking. They thought they are right everything and not remembering even there is a Creator, we must look for Him. Only what they are looking – for their, them self, how their bad desire it must be first thing before order of Allah. You cannot prevent people to do bad thing but they prevent you to do good thing. This is our day's problem, and it is the most darkness days since beginning of humanity. No any time it was like this. The most... they are against everything, against nature of human being they are doing. And they are saying, "This is nature and we are doing what we, our ego like. This is freedom. You cannot say anything against this."
And Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is punishing people. Now we see whole human being, billions, they are afraid. From what? From very small thing, from illness. Muslim, not afraid. He must be not afraid. Because he is lucky, he, Allah create him Muslim. The most lucky one – who is believer and he is Muslim. But Muslim people also they not seeing themselves lucky. They think the lucky one who live in Europe, in America or in this world rich countries. Who live in poor country, they are not happy but
they are also no mind. It is not lucky to live in Europe or to live in America or the rich, most richest country in the world. It is not lucky because they are also like you. They eating what you eat, maybe eating more, but they cannot eat [like] ten people. But people the lucky one who is believer, because after this life he will be happy. Other no, even in dunya also they don't have any rest, any happiness. Only by drinking, by using drugs or other thing, they are trying to make them self happy.
And now this coming, this illness, make them more unhappy. Muslim, Allah prevent [protect] him. If you ask for forgiveness – because this is not mercy from Allah, this punishment for human being. So who repent and coming asking for forgiveness from Allah from here, there, not remembering their Creator, it will be for them difficult.
Alhamdulillah we are, for this we are saying we are lucky. We are depend, tawakkul ‘alá Llāh, "Tawakkaltu ‘alá Llāh" (11:56). This is our saying, slogan. Our slogan, "Tawakkaltu ‘alá Llāh" (11:56). Tawakkal ‘alá Llāh. Depend on Allah. If you depend on Allah nobody can make anything for you. If you depend on your power or your money or your anything from this world, all this can be finished. But Allah ‘Azza wa- Jalla . He is One. He is no changing for Him.
So you Muslim people, our murid in East and West, don't be worry. Only be depend on Allah and make sadaqah and say every day, "Astaghfirullahil-‘Azeem" at least 100 times. Insha Allah we'll be safe all of us and this will affect only non-believer, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
12.TO BE ALLAH’S BELOVED ONE Tuesday, 4 February 2020
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 walīyiya Llāhu wa-huwa yatawallá ṣ-ṣāliḥīn" (7:196). It is an Aayah. It shows how nice it is to be a friend of Allah. If you are Allah's friend, you are among the winners, among the pious ones, among the good ones. It is a big favor. To be Allah's friend is not given to everyone. Because people do not know their friends. However, Allah is the best of Friends. "I am the best Friend," says Allah. "No one can be better than Me." Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying this to everyone. And people are asking neither for His friendship, nor for the friendship of the Prophet; neither for that of the Awliya, nor of the believers. Wherever there is a useless one, they want to be his friend. And then they look for peace and happiness. Of course, they cannot find it. Allah's Mercy is great.
All beauties are at Allah's, ‘Azza wa-Jalla, door, in His presence, all kinds of goodness and blessings. Who is His friend wins in dunya too. And the main thing is friendship in Aakhirah. To be with Him every moment is a great gain for people, to be together with Allah. How can you do this? You should be with Allah. How can you do this. Allah should be in your heart. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, "Neither heaven nor earth can contain Me but the heart of a believer can." Allah is near to you, near to everyone. But you should recognize that nearness. You should appreciate it. Then you will be His friend. May Allah let all of us reach this level. The highest level is to be a friend of Allah.
Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying in Qur'an: "Inna walīyiya Llāhu wa-huwa yatawallá ṣ-ṣāliḥīn" (7:196). My Beloved One is Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and He is love good people, Salih people. Allah is with them. This is the biggest, highest rank for human being, to be Allah's beloved one, friend. "Dost" for Allah, to be this it is our aim. Who has this, he is the most happy one, the most benefit one. Allah His door open for everybody. "Come be beloved one for Me," He is saying. But nobody, very few people they are listening for this.
They are not listening. They thought only few people they can be beloved one for Allah ‘Azza wa- Jalla. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla whole universe can be beloved for Him. But they are, no any, He will be no less, no more. Allah can, nothing you cannot say, "He cannot do any of this." Every good thing, everything Allah able to do. For this to be, you must be, try to be His beloved one. This is the most benefit for human being, for everybody. Must be with Him. How we can be with Him? Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says in Hadith Qudsi, "He is greatest.
No heaven, no sky, no earth can host Me. Only I am in My beloved, believer servant's heart." He can be in heart but other thing cannot be. We cannot imagine but Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying. This is meaning, your heart it must be full with His love ,remembering Him whole time, you will be beloved one for Him. It is the most thing we must look for, because people in dunya they are not looking for this highest love.
They are looking for nothing, for other thing. But for mu’min, can be in his heart and to be beloved one for Allah ‘Azza wa- Jalla, not difficult. All time remember Allah, He is in your heart. Help, He is help you, giving you all happiness. The happiness to be with Allah. If you are away from Allah, you're not happy. But if He is in your heart all time, you'll be happy, you be satisfied. You know Allah with you, nothing can harm you, nothing can make any bad thing for you.
All this thing in the world not important, all this. Only for Aakhirah. So when you are in dunya and put your... Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla in your heart, you'll be reach the highest station, Insha Allah, in Aakhirah. This our aim
for all people. For poor or for rich, everybody must be this they be happy, no different. Allah create everybody same. Everybody he can reach the highest station, Insha Allah. Allah help us to be all time with Him, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
13.CYPRUS IS A HOLY PLACE Wednesday, 5 February 2020
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, Sayyiduna Qutb ‘Uthman madad.
Our tariqah exists with suhbah. Our goal is to be with good people in good gatherings. Mawlana used to come to Famagusta since he was young. Famagusta is a blessed place, Maa Shaa Allah. At times there were hundreds of brothers coming. Something happened and then the people became less or more. It is a place Mawlana paid attention to, Famagusta. Because many shahids, martyrs gave their lives to make it a place of Islam .
Since the time of our Prophet Sahabah came to this island of Cyprus. After Sahabah, their followers came. At a certain point, for hundreds of years it was dominated and oppressed by the Christians. After that a fatwa was issued to take back this place, as it is an important place. If it was not taken, there would be danger coming to Islam and Muslims. So then by the order of the Ottoman Sultan, from Anatolia shukr to Allah this country was taken not by a hundred, but by a thousand martyrs. There are martyrs everywhere, everywhere Awliya and Sahabah.
Even though there is an inappropriate situation now, it is not important. It is temporary. It is neither important, nor worthy. They can make everything with gold. It has no value. Value comes from the spiritual owners of this place. And one of them is Sayyiduna Qutb ‘Uthman.
There is Canbolat Pasha, Hala Sultan at the top. Apart from them, there are hundreds of Sahabah. Some of their places are known. The rest are not known. Their respect is high in the presence of Allah. Who helped
Islam is Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. For His honor, shukr to Allah we are given this place. May Allah increase their stations. May their support be with us and may Allah show the right way to those who live here now. May they turn back to right way. May they be good servants.
A good servant is a good man. Who is not a good servant, is not a good person. They say they are good. You cannot be a witness to yourself because people always say they are good. People never call themselves bad. Even the worst person claims to be good.
Let others say good of you in order for it to be true. So we wish for these people to be good. Because everything is by Allah's command. Hearts are in Allah's hands. He can turn hearts into good and bad. We have no power in it. We can only pray. And a prayer is a big weapon.
People with biggest weapons in this world can remain weak in some things – not in some, but in most things. With prayers, Allah conquers them with this weapon. Therefore, prayers are important.
May Allah help our people see the right way and the truth. Because the truth is all clear but people are blind and their ears don't hear. "Wa-lahum a‘yunun lā yubṣirūna bihā wa- lahum ādhānun lā yasmaʿūna bihā" (7:179), says the Aayah. They have eyes that don't see and ears that don't hear. What is it that they don't see and don't hear? The truth. They see what it is not true.
They hear what it is not true. They believe this to be true. They are unlucky people. People who assume as true what is not true but false, they are unlucky. Why are they unlucky? People have everything. They have cars, houses, and money. Why would they be unlucky? They are unlucky because all of those things are imagination and temporary. They can be rich up to seven generations, it has no value.
Valuable is to see the truth and obey the truth. And truth is one. Truth is Allah. The rest is imagination. All of it is temporary. Most people don't
see this one truth. Muslims also don't see it. Non Muslims don't see it anyway.
And Muslims are cheated. Therefore, may Allah let all of us see and obey the truth, let us follow the truth. May our people see that truth because if they see it, they will have no troubles, with Allah's permission.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
14.EVEN THE PRICK OF A THORN Wednesday, 5 February 2020
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 Allah after a year apart, we meet once again. There are some brothers who departed from this world, may Allah bless their souls. We meet each other here now and we will meet them in Akhirah, Insha Allah. Because dunya, as we said sometimes people cannot make it until next year, but shukr to Allah. Some stupid people say they go for eternal rest when people die. It is not eternal rest, eternal is afterwards. There is eternal life not rest. And then there is good life. That is important.
People are mixing up in their heads. They say whatever they want, thinking or without thinking. It is even worse when they say like that by thinking, it is faithlessness then. Faithful people know there is Akhirah. Who are Muslim will meet there, Insha Allah.
Who are not Muslim should think for themselves. They will have hard time. Therefore, may Allah let us be in Akhirah like we are in dunya. Of course, we meet in dunya after a year, sometimes after a month, a couple of months, in five years, sometimes longer or sooner. We meet then but what is important – in Akhirah it happens forever. Akhirah is without death. It is eternal.
Now they are messing with people's faith. Can it be eternal or not? It can be. Allah's, ‘Azza wa-Jalla, promise to us is true. As a big favor, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is giving us this beautiful life. We should be thankful for it. We will do everything we can in order to earn His pleasure. In fact,
that is not hard. Because life is sometimes hard on people anyway, no matter if they do goodness or not. But it is hard on those who don't have faith. The believer knows everything is from Allah. Whatever comes from Allah is nice, say the Awliya. They are pleased and at peace. "It came from Allah. This man did this to me. That matter went wrong like that. That problem is given as a test by Allah in order to increase our rank." If you believe like this, that matter will become easy and not hard.
But a man without faith and belief just curses and swears. He swears at destiny and people and curses everything. And a man with faith, as we said, sees life as a place of test. Who pass this test are believers. Non- believers fail the test and fail the course. And it is not easy to fail this course. They will have a hard time in Akhirah.
Those who don't obsess over small things in dunya, those who say it is from Allah, will pass with Allah's help and favor. They will deserve Allah's kindness.
May Allah give good sustenance to all of us. We are living at the end of times now. Hard is hard. But keep in mind that everything is from Allah. As our Prophet says, even if a thorn pricks a believer's hand, its reward won't be lost with Allah. Everyone has problems. Keep in your mind that you will be rewarded for this hardship. We will be rewarded for these problems. Thawab will be given. You will be at peace. And others will be in comfort. And teach this to your children so that they don't get depressed from hardships and feel bad. May Allah protect us. May Allah not give us a test we cannot pass, Insha Allah.
May Allah treat us with kindness as we are weak servants. No matter how much we say, when hardship comes, people forget. May Allah help us.
There are such and such illnesses in this world. Don't pay attention to them. What Allah says happens. It is a punishment from Allah. There are those who deserve it. It comes for them.
May Allah protect Muslims, Insha Allah. May Allah protect and give us the taste of faith. May our faith be strengthened, Insha Allah.

Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Fa- lā taghurrannakumu l-ḥayātu d-dunya, wa-lā yaghurrannakum biLlāhi l-gharūr" (35:5). Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is telling this Aayah in Qur'an ‘Azimu sh-Sha’n: don't be cheated by the life of this world. The life of this world cheats people and makes them forget Allah. When they forget Allah, they lose in the end and depart from this world. They have wasted their lives. They have wasted their hopes. What they thought to be good turns out to be bad. They will have lived completely useless lives. There are many cheated people.
People are cheated by the appeara

it too?
Then, we have to make Dua that Allah protect us and that Allah not put us in such situations, because everything is in the power of Allah. Most of the time, you look and think, “What’s going on? What are they doing?” about people you never expected them to do so.
That’s why we have to train our own ego and keep it under control insha’Allah. May Allah help us. It seems easy but it is hard work. You
have to do it constantly, and you need Allah’s help. If you beg Allah, Allah will help you. Therefore, may Allah help us. May Allah protect us from the evil of our egos. The evil of the ego is worse than the evil of shaytan.
May Allah protect us.

8.THE GREATEST HONOR Friday, 31 January 2020
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 brothers are miserable. A person who has a favor but does not benefit from that favor is foolish. The majority are from those kinds of people. Not only do they not benefit from it, they are an enemy. They are unfortunate, they have no luck. They are like people who have favors, have water, but are parched with thirst. They do not appreciate this favor. They are foolish, their minds are limited. They say, “We are smart, we read this, we read that, we finished this, we read those books”, but they are not.
Being from the Ummah Muhammadiyya is the greatest favor, the greatest honor. It is something that the prophets demanded. They wanted to be from the Ummah of Muhammad instead of being prophets. But it was their duty and they accepted it. Allah gave the best of worship and favors to our Holy Prophet. Our Holy Prophet was sent as the last prophet and he completed all the religion. Islam is the most perfect religion. There is no other religion and no other prophet after it. This religion is eternal. This religion is the religion of Allah. Allah granted this to our Holy Prophet. May Allah make us appreciate this favor.
There are many people who have showed up now saying that they are Muslims but do not respect our Holy Prophet. They are unlucky. They say there is no intercession, they say don’t ask for Madad (help) and they talk nonsense. They are unfortunate because without the love of our Holy Prophet, there is no benefit to people. They say not to put anything
between Allah and the servant, but they themselves put the biggest thing. They do not put our Holy Prophet, Awliya and righteous ones, but they put their own egos between them and Allah. The ego is worse than the shaytan. They do not put Allah and the Qur’an, they put the greatest shaytan, their ego. And their luck is bad because they have fallen into this state. May Allah not put us in this state.
May Allah strengthen our faith. May we have a great love for our Holy Prophet Insha Allah. May Allah protect us.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
9.ALLAH’S COUNTLESS ARMIES Sunday, 2 February 2020 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 ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying, "Wa-liLlāhi junūdu s-samāwāti wa-l-arḍ" (48:7). The armies of Heavens and Earths are under the command of Allāh.
What kind of armies are they? Are there tanks, guns, rockets and planes? Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla has all kinds of armies. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla has undefeatable armies. Who fights against Allāh is foolish and crazy. Mankind thinks he rules over the world now. While they say, "We have the biggest army in the world. No one can touch us. We can defeat anyone," Allāh made one of His very small armies to destroy them. The whole world is alarmed. He frightened the people with the biggest army and the whole country became frozen. Allāh is Great. Who wants to fight against Allāh is foolish.
It happened like this once before during Mawlānā's time. He was saying that was Allah's army, an invisible army. No need for a big army. If one angel is sent, for him they will not be even as big as a chickpea. No need for that. An invisible army was sent, and they are destroyed. Why? Because they went beyond oppression. They tore and burned the Qur’ān. Mankind went further, they reached the last level of unbelief. So they got a slap. And this slap came to the unbelievers. If Muslims want to be protected, they should return to Allāh. They should repent and ask forgiveness. Nothing will happen to them with Allāh's permission. But those who are with those others, who see them and think they are doing
right and try to act in same way, they will be punished.
Brothers keep asking, "What's this? What shall we do?" Pay your ṣadaqah. It will protect you from accidents, sicknesses, and everything. And then repent. "We are begging you, O Allāh We are happy with Your judgement. We are not with those people. We are not against You. We obey You." Say this so that you do not get punished.
It is a big miracle in fact. People think it is a disaster but it is a clear miracle of Allah. A person who claims that he is the bravest in the whole world, cannot open his mouth against this oppression. Because these people have big armies, he said, "We can't deal with them. We would rather stay silent." You keep silent. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla won't remain silent. When it comes against the work of Allah, Allah doesn't fear anyone and won't look at consequences. People in this world think how it will turn out when they are thinking to do something. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla doesn't worry about that. He doesn't worry about the end. "Wa-l-‘āqibatu lil muttaqīn" (28:83). A good end is for those who are God fearing. They will have a good ending. And a bad end is for those who go against Allah and do not accept Allah. There is nothing to be afraid of. Fear Allah and you won't need to fear anything else. This is the summary of this issue.
This world is not where we will live forever. In this world, we have things to do, duties to keep for Akhirah. We should do those things. The biggest thing is to fear Allah, to be a friend of Don't oppose Allāh
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying: Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Wa-liLlāhi junūdu s- samāwāti wa-l-arḍ, wa-kāna Llāhu ‘azīzan ḥakīma" (48:7). The army, all... There's armies in Earth, in Heaven. This for Allah ‘Azza wa- Jalla, our Lord. What army? This every country they have army. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, has and Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla He has countless armies. No need for Him missiles, or tanks, or destroyer, or jet fighter, or guns, or cannons. No need for Him this. His army more stronger. There is army, small and big and bigger and giant army. But Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla for, His people fighting against Him and they said, "Our army the biggest army in the world! No one can stop in front of our because afraid.
But Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is not afraid. Especially when they're coming disrespect for Him and for His Holy Book, Qur’ān. They make very bad thing these unbeliever people. There now fashion to burn Qur’ān everywhere, to step on it. And they thought, "O we are strong. Nobody can do this, anything." But the Owner of universe the, He is fighting with them. So, no chance for them. And now He send one army to fight with them. In two weeks whole world become crazy, afraid, trembling. We go everywhere we see people they put mask on their nose, their face and they are really afraid. They said, "This is virus. This is," I don't know.
This is the biggest miracle, it is not disaster It is miracle from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, to show people how Allah He is exist and He is fighting with them, with a very small army, even we cannot see by eyes. Without seeing, they are fighting and they are finishing people. No need for big one. If... There is also big one, for big army, one of His army, you are not like even like peanut, whole your world in front of him, is this one army, one soldier from His army, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. So you must be happy, not to afraid, because we see to make people more, because no belief these days they make everybody to think it is nothing, nobody – "We are coming here just like this, and we go like nothing after this." But no! There is our Lord Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, He is showing with this miracle to people, how He is exist and He is, with this very small thing, showing people. But unfortunately people they are not thinking for this. Thinking, "How we can protect ourself, how we can save ourself from this?" They put adver saying, but the most to protect yourself you must – Prophet saying – for sadaqah, you put everyday sadaqah and say, " Astaghfirullah. We are O our Lord forgive us, we are not from these people. We are with You, not with them. We are not fighting with You. We are fighting our ego. We are not with these people and we cannot fight them. You fight them. We cannot fight because we are weak, but You are the biggest, Allahu Akbar."
So no worry for who is believer. Who is Muslim, he mustn't be afraid
from this. Everything from Allah. Allah, who deserve this, He will take him. Who is with Him, Insha Allah, safe. Now also there is many earthquake happen. Also people, Muslim people especially, they are cheated by unbeliever. They have doubt, very much doubt. So all this to make... When you are afraid for this you say, "Al-‘āqibatu lil-muttaqīn" (28:83). The end for who afraid from Allah. Without fear nobody looking for Ākhirah. Some must be fear, fear from Allāh and repent and come back to Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla.Otherwise you are not safe. So, this is what happened. No need for believer, for Muslim, to be afraid, to be anxious. This all from Allah and "khayruhu wa-sharruhu mina Llāha ta‘ālá" (good and bad is from Allah) , this is our belief. So Allah, protect us and punish those who are oppressor , punish them Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
10.REPENT TO ALLAH Monday, 3 February 2020
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 saying, "Wa-tūbū ilá Llāhi jamī‘a" (24:31). All of you repent to Allah. Mankind is sinful. Allah created them to make mistakes and to forgive them. He promised to accept their repentance. If you make a sin, do good after it, says our Prophet "Wa-atbi‘ s-sayyi’ata l- ḥasanata tamhuhā." When you do goodness after your sin, it will clear your wrong. No sin will remain. You will have repented and be as if you didn't sin. This is addressed to all people, not only to Muslims but also to unbelievers. They should repent and return to Allah so that their wrongdoing is erased. Allāh forgives when asked for forgiveness. But if you don't ask for forgiveness from Allah, Allah will give you all kinds of hardship and troubles. He makes people taste this in dunyā before Ākhirah. Evil brings nothing but evil. And goodness brings goodness.
All nations in this world, by the wisdom of Allah, not just one place but all these billions of people, are afraid of this illness – wondering where it came from. From Allāh. Everything comes from Allah. Allah didn't give it to you as a reward. He gave it because of your wildness, in order for you to remember Him. When you are punished, what do you do? You repent so that Allah forgives you. May Allah take this hardship off our shoulders. We always ask forgiveness.
May Allah forgive us. May Allah protect us. May it not be a punishment for us.
When you repent and ask forgiveness, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla turns sins into thaw. Therefore, we are lucky to be Muslims, to be believing ones. Mankind doesn't know this. They think lucky people are those who live in Europe and who live in America. They are not lucky. Lucky are those who know Allah, lucky are Muslims who believe in Allah. The rest is nothing. Even if they live for fifty or a hundred years, people pass away from a little thing. A man can live in the biggest house in the world, in the richest country in the world, it has no benefit. Benefit is in faith. Lucky is the believing servant, a Muslim servant.
Don't bother yourself with other illnesses and sicknesses. Depend on Allah and you won't care. Allah is with those who are with Him. He gives to those who ask for a cure.
"Pray, and I will accept your prayer." Allah protects. May Allah protect all of us. May Allah protect Muslim servants. May nothing happen to any of them, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
11.REPENT TO ALLAH Monday, 3 February 2020
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh.
Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying: Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Wa-tūbū ilá Llāhi jamī‘a" (24:31). Repent for Allah all of you. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying because human being, Allah create them to do wrong, to do sin, to do everything and, but to remember Allah and to ask for forgiveness from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla.
Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying, "If I... all of you, you be obedient people, I will create people who making sin making to forgive them. I like to forgive people."
So all this people, human being, not saying for only Muslim, for whole human being, "Repent, ask for forgiveness from Me. If you ask forgiveness, I will give, I am happy to forgive you." But people they are not asking. They thought they are right everything and not remembering even there is a Creator, we must look for Him. Only what they are looking – for their, them self, how their bad desire it must be first thing before order of Allah. You cannot prevent people to do bad thing but they prevent you to do good thing. This is our day's problem, and it is the most darkness days since beginning of humanity. No any time it was like this. The most... they are against everything, against nature of human being they are doing. And they are saying, "This is nature and we are doing what we, our ego like. This is freedom. You cannot say anything against this."
And Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is punishing people. Now we see whole human being, billions, they are afraid. From what? From very small thing, from illness. Muslim, not afraid. He must be not afraid. Because he is lucky, he, Allah create him Muslim. The most lucky one – who is believer and he is Muslim. But Muslim people also they not seeing themselves lucky. They think the lucky one who live in Europe, in America or in this world rich countries. Who live in poor country, they are not happy but
they are also no mind. It is not lucky to live in Europe or to live in America or the rich, most richest country in the world. It is not lucky because they are also like you. They eating what you eat, maybe eating more, but they cannot eat [like] ten people. But people the lucky one who is believer, because after this life he will be happy. Other no, even in dunya also they don't have any rest, any happiness. Only by drinking, by using drugs or other thing, they are trying to make them self happy.
And now this coming, this illness, make them more unhappy. Muslim, Allah prevent [protect] him. If you ask for forgiveness – because this is not mercy from Allah, this punishment for human being. So who repent and coming asking for forgiveness from Allah from here, there, not remembering their Creator, it will be for them difficult.
Alhamdulillah we are, for this we are saying we are lucky. We are depend, tawakkul ‘alá Llāh, "Tawakkaltu ‘alá Llāh" (11:56). This is our saying, slogan. Our slogan, "Tawakkaltu ‘alá Llāh" (11:56). Tawakkal ‘alá Llāh. Depend on Allah. If you depend on Allah nobody can make anything for you. If you depend on your power or your money or your anything from this world, all this can be finished. But Allah ‘Azza wa- Jalla . He is One. He is no changing for Him.
So you Muslim people, our murid in East and West, don't be worry. Only be depend on Allah and make sadaqah and say every day, "Astaghfirullahil-‘Azeem" at least 100 times. Insha Allah we'll be safe all of us and this will affect only non-believer, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
12.TO BE ALLAH’S BELOVED ONE Tuesday, 4 February 2020
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 walīyiya Llāhu wa-huwa yatawallá ṣ-ṣāliḥīn" (7:196). It is an Aayah. It shows how nice it is to be a friend of Allah. If you are Allah's friend, you are among the winners, among the pious ones, among the good ones. It is a big favor. To be Allah's friend is not given to everyone. Because people do not know their friends. However, Allah is the best of Friends. "I am the best Friend," says Allah. "No one can be better than Me." Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying this to everyone. And people are asking neither for His friendship, nor for the friendship of the Prophet; neither for that of the Awliya, nor of the believers. Wherever there is a useless one, they want to be his friend. And then they look for peace and happiness. Of course, they cannot find it. Allah's Mercy is great.
All beauties are at Allah's, ‘Azza wa-Jalla, door, in His presence, all kinds of goodness and blessings. Who is His friend wins in dunya too. And the main thing is friendship in Aakhirah. To be with Him every moment is a great gain for people, to be together with Allah. How can you do this? You should be with Allah. How can you do this. Allah should be in your heart. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, "Neither heaven nor earth can contain Me but the heart of a believer can." Allah is near to you, near to everyone. But you should recognize that nearness. You should appreciate it. Then you will be His friend. May Allah let all of us reach this level. The highest level is to be a friend of Allah.
Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying in Qur'an: "Inna walīyiya Llāhu wa-huwa yatawallá ṣ-ṣāliḥīn" (7:196). My Beloved One is Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and He is love good people, Salih people. Allah is with them. This is the biggest, highest rank for human being, to be Allah's beloved one, friend. "Dost" for Allah, to be this it is our aim. Who has this, he is the most happy one, the most benefit one. Allah His door open for everybody. "Come be beloved one for Me," He is saying. But nobody, very few people they are listening for this.
They are not listening. They thought only few people they can be beloved one for Allah ‘Azza wa- Jalla. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla whole universe can be beloved for Him. But they are, no any, He will be no less, no more. Allah can, nothing you cannot say, "He cannot do any of this." Every good thing, everything Allah able to do. For this to be, you must be, try to be His beloved one. This is the most benefit for human being, for everybody. Must be with Him. How we can be with Him? Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says in Hadith Qudsi, "He is greatest.
No heaven, no sky, no earth can host Me. Only I am in My beloved, believer servant's heart." He can be in heart but other thing cannot be. We cannot imagine but Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying. This is meaning, your heart it must be full with His love ,remembering Him whole time, you will be beloved one for Him. It is the most thing we must look for, because people in dunya they are not looking for this highest love.
They are looking for nothing, for other thing. But for mu’min, can be in his heart and to be beloved one for Allah ‘Azza wa- Jalla, not difficult. All time remember Allah, He is in your heart. Help, He is help you, giving you all happiness. The happiness to be with Allah. If you are away from Allah, you're not happy. But if He is in your heart all time, you'll be happy, you be satisfied. You know Allah with you, nothing can harm you, nothing can make any bad thing for you.
All this thing in the world not important, all this. Only for Aakhirah. So when you are in dunya and put your... Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla in your heart, you'll be reach the highest station, Insha Allah, in Aakhirah. This our aim
for all people. For poor or for rich, everybody must be this they be happy, no different. Allah create everybody same. Everybody he can reach the highest station, Insha Allah. Allah help us to be all time with Him, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
13.CYPRUS IS A HOLY PLACE Wednesday, 5 February 2020
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, Sayyiduna Qutb ‘Uthman madad.
Our tariqah exists with suhbah. Our goal is to be with good people in good gatherings. Mawlana used to come to Famagusta since he was young. Famagusta is a blessed place, Maa Shaa Allah. At times there were hundreds of brothers coming. Something happened and then the people became less or more. It is a place Mawlana paid attention to, Famagusta. Because many shahids, martyrs gave their lives to make it a place of Islam .
Since the time of our Prophet Sahabah came to this island of Cyprus. After Sahabah, their followers came. At a certain point, for hundreds of years it was dominated and oppressed by the Christians. After that a fatwa was issued to take back this place, as it is an important place. If it was not taken, there would be danger coming to Islam and Muslims. So then by the order of the Ottoman Sultan, from Anatolia shukr to Allah this country was taken not by a hundred, but by a thousand martyrs. There are martyrs everywhere, everywhere Awliya and Sahabah.
Even though there is an inappropriate situation now, it is not important. It is temporary. It is neither important, nor worthy. They can make everything with gold. It has no value. Value comes from the spiritual owners of this place. And one of them is Sayyiduna Qutb ‘Uthman.
There is Canbolat Pasha, Hala Sultan at the top. Apart from them, there are hundreds of Sahabah. Some of their places are known. The rest are not known. Their respect is high in the presence of Allah. Who helped
Islam is Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. For His honor, shukr to Allah we are given this place. May Allah increase their stations. May their support be with us and may Allah show the right way to those who live here now. May they turn back to right way. May they be good servants.
A good servant is a good man. Who is not a good servant, is not a good person. They say they are good. You cannot be a witness to yourself because people always say they are good. People never call themselves bad. Even the worst person claims to be good.
Let others say good of you in order for it to be true. So we wish for these people to be good. Because everything is by Allah's command. Hearts are in Allah's hands. He can turn hearts into good and bad. We have no power in it. We can only pray. And a prayer is a big weapon.
People with biggest weapons in this world can remain weak in some things – not in some, but in most things. With prayers, Allah conquers them with this weapon. Therefore, prayers are important.
May Allah help our people see the right way and the truth. Because the truth is all clear but people are blind and their ears don't hear. "Wa-lahum a‘yunun lā yubṣirūna bihā wa- lahum ādhānun lā yasmaʿūna bihā" (7:179), says the Aayah. They have eyes that don't see and ears that don't hear. What is it that they don't see and don't hear? The truth. They see what it is not true.
They hear what it is not true. They believe this to be true. They are unlucky people. People who assume as true what is not true but false, they are unlucky. Why are they unlucky? People have everything. They have cars, houses, and money. Why would they be unlucky? They are unlucky because all of those things are imagination and temporary. They can be rich up to seven generations, it has no value.
Valuable is to see the truth and obey the truth. And truth is one. Truth is Allah. The rest is imagination. All of it is temporary. Most people don't
see this one truth. Muslims also don't see it. Non Muslims don't see it anyway.
And Muslims are cheated. Therefore, may Allah let all of us see and obey the truth, let us follow the truth. May our people see that truth because if they see it, they will have no troubles, with Allah's permission.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
14.EVEN THE PRICK OF A THORN Wednesday, 5 February 2020
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 Allah after a year apart, we meet once again. There are some brothers who departed from this world, may Allah bless their souls. We meet each other here now and we will meet them in Akhirah, Insha Allah. Because dunya, as we said sometimes people cannot make it until next year, but shukr to Allah. Some stupid people say they go for eternal rest when people die. It is not eternal rest, eternal is afterwards. There is eternal life not rest. And then there is good life. That is important.
People are mixing up in their heads. They say whatever they want, thinking or without thinking. It is even worse when they say like that by thinking, it is faithlessness then. Faithful people know there is Akhirah. Who are Muslim will meet there, Insha Allah.
Who are not Muslim should think for themselves. They will have hard time. Therefore, may Allah let us be in Akhirah like we are in dunya. Of course, we meet in dunya after a year, sometimes after a month, a couple of months, in five years, sometimes longer or sooner. We meet then but what is important – in Akhirah it happens forever. Akhirah is without death. It is eternal.
Now they are messing with people's faith. Can it be eternal or not? It can be. Allah's, ‘Azza wa-Jalla, promise to us is true. As a big favor, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is giving us this beautiful life. We should be thankful for it. We will do everything we can in order to earn His pleasure. In fact,
that is not hard. Because life is sometimes hard on people anyway, no matter if they do goodness or not. But it is hard on those who don't have faith. The believer knows everything is from Allah. Whatever comes from Allah is nice, say the Awliya. They are pleased and at peace. "It came from Allah. This man did this to me. That matter went wrong like that. That problem is given as a test by Allah in order to increase our rank." If you believe like this, that matter will become easy and not hard.
But a man without faith and belief just curses and swears. He swears at destiny and people and curses everything. And a man with faith, as we said, sees life as a place of test. Who pass this test are believers. Non- believers fail the test and fail the course. And it is not easy to fail this course. They will have a hard time in Akhirah.
Those who don't obsess over small things in dunya, those who say it is from Allah, will pass with Allah's help and favor. They will deserve Allah's kindness.
May Allah give good sustenance to all of us. We are living at the end of times now. Hard is hard. But keep in mind that everything is from Allah. As our Prophet says, even if a thorn pricks a believer's hand, its reward won't be lost with Allah. Everyone has problems. Keep in your mind that you will be rewarded for this hardship. We will be rewarded for these problems. Thawab will be given. You will be at peace. And others will be in comfort. And teach this to your children so that they don't get depressed from hardships and feel bad. May Allah protect us. May Allah not give us a test we cannot pass, Insha Allah.
May Allah treat us with kindness as we are weak servants. No matter how much we say, when hardship comes, people forget. May Allah help us.
There are such and such illnesses in this world. Don't pay attention to them. What Allah says happens. It is a punishment from Allah. There are those who deserve it. It comes for them.
May Allah protect Muslims, Insha Allah. May Allah protect and give us the taste of faith. May our faith be strengthened, Insha Allah.

Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Fa- lā taghurrannakumu l-ḥayātu d-dunya, wa-lā yaghurrannakum biLlāhi l-gharūr" (35:5). Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is telling this Aayah in Qur'an ‘Azimu sh-Sha’n: don't be cheated by the life of this world. The life of this world cheats people and makes them forget Allah. When they forget Allah, they lose in the end and depart from this world. They have wasted their lives. They have wasted their hopes. What they thought to be good turns out to be bad. They will have lived completely useless lives. There are many cheated people.
