Suhbah 2020: Maulana Shaykh Mehmet Adil ar-Rabbani (25/25)


https://www.nvrislam.net/index.php?j=eng&post=5575
ina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunas sohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya. Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Allah has given people a partial free will. So He says, head towards goodness. Hurry in doing good, race to do good. Don’t look at your ego and say that you will do it later or that it is difficult. Run to do good. Run to the way of Allah and to the love of Allah. Race, Allah says. If you try to do this, then Allah will help you. But if you say, “Allah created me this way” and be lazy then you will not be able to receive much. If you go the opposite way, it will be harmful and your whole life will be finished. Not only this life but also the hereafter. You will not gain anything and you will be in loss. Therefore, we should always race for good works. Doing good works is an act of worship. It is what Allah ordered as Fard. Prayer, fasting, Zakat and Hajj are all Fard. Allah has ordered some as Fard for all people and some for certain people. Of those that everybody is ordered to do are prayer and fasting, definitely try to do those. As for Zakat, may Allah give you that you don’t neglect it either. It is necessary to intend for Hajj because they put a lot of obstacles for this matter. It was already hard in normal times to go to Hajj, but now it is even harder. But once you make the intention, you will gain the reward for it as well. Try to help people and Muslims as much as possible. Try to do all kinds of good deeds. There is a reward for good deeds.

Our Holy Prophet says, “Even if you pick a stone or trash from the street, Allah will reward you.” So goodness is good for people. Allah’s orders and religion is beneficial in both this world and in the hereafter. He also

orders us not to waste, ruin or dirty. There’s nothing better than this. If people follow Allah’s orders, they will be comfortable in this world and they will win anyway in the hereafter. May Allah perpetuate this goodness for us. May He strengthen our Iman even more insha’Allah.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

220.MAWLĀNĀ SHAYKH NAZIM Wednesday, 23 December 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. When you mention the righteous ones, mercy will come down. The mercy of Allah will come down on that assembly which will be remembered and filled with mercy. The righteous ones are Allah’s beloved servants. The closest one to us was Malwana Shaykh Nazim. May Allah raise his station. May Allah be pleased with him for all the services he has done for people. His service was to prohibit evil and show the right way, and thank Allah he has done so.

Those who understand, understand it. Those who don’t understand, are committing sin. Shaytan is making many people commit sin unknowingly. Malwana Shaykh Nazim showed the Shariah, the religion and the way of our Holy Prophet to the people. Those who can do it, are doing it. Those who cannot, tried to do as much as they could. What is important is the intention. Those with bad intentions look at the apparent. There are many of them until now. They say that these people are such and such. Mawlana Shaykh Nazim didn’t interfere with the Muslims. He didn’t tell them to come to him. He was guiding people who had no knowledge of Islam to the way. He brought non-Muslims to the way. He was a means for guidance for all kinds of people. This is what he did. They say that he met this one and that one. He met them because they needed it. He advises people. Whoever comes, the door is open. Nobody will be fired if they came here and did not repent. It is open to everybody from all over the world. The door is the door of Allah. It is a responsibility. “I came and they kicked me out of here.” If they said so, how will a person

answer Allah later? The true Murshid looks at the truth, he doesn’t look at the exterior but at the beauty within. Allah has given light to everybody, and he was trying to bring that light out. He did not say, “You are like this and like that...”

Therefore, we should respect Awliyau’Allah. To respect and honor Awliyau’Allah is to honor the Holy Prophet and to honor Allah. Shaytan enters from that door. They say, “You honor Awliyau’Allah, you honor the Prophet, you are committing Shirk (polytheism).” But when they removed them, this led to our present state. They even started making people doubt the Quran. So to love and respect Awliyau’Allah is to respect Allah and our Holy Prophet. May their station be raised and may their way be full of light. This way will continue until the day of judgment insha’Allah. Those who come to this way reach happiness. Those who do not come to this way will be in danger between the shaytans and this world, and they will drown.

Hold on to the rope of Awliyau’Allah. It is the rope of Allah. The one who holds on to it is saved. The one who does not is in danger. It is not clear because the shaytan and the deceivers are many. Therefore, to be with the Awliya is salvation because they do not call people to their own ego, they call them to Allah and to our Holy Prophet. Whereas, there are many people who call to themselves, to their own ego. Those who call to their own ego, call to shaytan. And those who call to shaytan, call to hell.

May Allah protect us. May Allah strengthen our Iman. May He increase our love.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

221.SPEAK GOOD OR REMAIN SILENT Thursday, 24 December 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. Our Holy Prophet states “Let him speak good or remain silent.” Speaking should be for good. A person shouldn’t speak something that is not useful because it harms people and it also harms the person himself. Therefore, it is better to keep quiet and stay at home in the end of times. This time is the end of times so we should speak good. Everything causes Fitnah, and Fitnah causes harm. At first it harms the person himself. He thinks that he is gaining some benefit. There is no benefit but harm for both himself and others.

Now they came out with these things where everybody follows someone and believes them too. Allah gave everybody a mind to think. They accept the bad as good and the good as bad. Therefore, this Hadith of our Holy Prophet is important. All of his Hadiths are important. In our time, these people are saying speak out. But what should we speak about if it’s not going to be good? It is better to keep quiet than to speak something that’s not going to be for benefit

When you hear a news, Allah says in the Holy Quran ‘‘Investigate." (Qur’ān 49:06).

Look back at its origin to see if it is true or not. If it is good, accept it. If it is not, then do not be upset for nothing and do not worry. After all, most of the news we hear, even the most reliable ones, can distract people of today and make them do as they please. Thousands of news come out, a

thousand articles are published, speeches, etc. But all are unnecessary. They’re not for good but for evil. May Allah protect us. May Allah always show us the truth. May we always follow the truth Insha Allah.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

222.THANK ALLAH FOR THE RELIGION OF ISLAM Friday, 25 December 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. Thank Allah for the religion of Islam because the true religion now is Islam. There is no other religion than Islam. They have corrupted all of the heavenly religions. No true ones are left, they are all fake. Today is supposedly the birthday of Sayyidina Isa ‘alayhi s-salam. They are doing an anniversary and a yearly calendar according to it but that’s not true either. They are saying this with their own mouths. It is not what we say, it is what the Christians say. The birth of Sayyidina Isa ‘alayhi s-salam is two months later from now. Today is something they made up from a pagan religion. So since the beginning, what we mean by the beginning is fifty to a hundred years after Sayyidina Isa ‘alayhi s-salam, they came up with fake apostles and saints. They corrupted the religion from the beginning. It is the work of shaytan. The shaytan does not want the truth. Billions of people are following something fake called a religion.

Talking about the Jews, they’re not [corrupted] as much, but most of them are also corrupted. They are hiding the truth. They have the truth but they hide it because of their benefit. They do not say the truth. Our Holy Prophet states in a Hadith Sharif: “If ten of the Jews became Muslims, all Jews would become Muslims.” Because amongst their scholars, many became Muslims but they weren’t ten. They were most probably two or three who became Muslims. They were the highest in status, but they still refused. This means that it is the wisdom of Allah that it should be this way as a test for people until the Day of Judgment.

Those who find the truth find happiness. Those who do not find it; they say, “We created the world. It is in our hands. We do as we want. We cut, we kill, we fight.” They think that they are ruling the world. Let them rule, this is not important. What’s important to us , thank Allah, is being on the right religion. Our religion is perfect, ‘Indeed, the religion in the sight of Allah is Islam.’ (Qur’ān 03:19). It is the religion that Allah wants. He completed it with our Holy Prophet Those who are happy have been following it. Those who are not happy have delved into this world. They don’t recognize anything but this world. They live with all kinds of difficulties because they don’t recognize anything but it. Let them claim that everything is theirs as much as they want, yet nothing is theirs. They will leave it and go away. This is important.

There are foolish Muslims who are running after this world. And those who run after them, they follow them thinking that there’s something special, their end will not be good either. Those who are attacking the Quran, the Hadith, the Prophet and the Awliya think that they are doing something. We say, may Allah guide them. The religion is the religion of Allah. Allah will protect it. They can attack it as much as they want but they’re only harming themselves and their end will not be good.

May Allah protect us. Thank Allah, He has granted us this religion. May Allah keep us steadfast on this path and strengthen our Iman Insha Allah.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

223.THE IMPORTANCE OF PRAYER Saturday, 26 December 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. Our religion, the religion of Islam, is the religion of salvation. For that, Allah has given worships and things to do. There are the Fard, the Wajib and the Sunnah. The highest of worship is the Fard, it is obligatory to do it. What is the obligatory? It is prayer, fasting, Zakat, and going to Hajj. Praying and Fasting is for everybody; everybody but the sick can do them. The Zakat and Hajj are also obligatory for those who have money, they have to do it. What does Fard mean? It is the worships that are given the most rewards.

The Fard is the highest form of worship. If you were to worship your whole life with Nafilah and Sunnah, it will not replace the Fard. It has such a high reward. What if you don’t do it? If you do not accept this blessing, are lazy and do not perform the Fard, you will be punished. Those who do not do the Fard would be committing sin. And whatever Allah wills in the matter of that sin is left to the mercy of Allah. We cannot interfere with His business. But as we said, if you miss a Fard, you can never get its reward or virtue even if you do it your whole life. Allah gave such a beauty and such a gift to people. When one doesn’t accept it, there won’t be any blessing or light in their worldly affairs. Yet for those who do, Allah gives them their rewards. Some people say: “I don’t pray but I make Dua and read Quran all the time.” Are you going to make a religion from your own mind? Allah has ordered it, so you will do it. If you want, read Quran from morning to evening, it has no value next to prayer. If

you spend not only twenty-four hours but your whole life worshipping, it does not replace these two minutes of prayer.

The Fard is important, and the same goes for Fasting. Some say: “I cannot fast but I’m giving Sadaqah instead. I don’t give out Zakat but I give Sadaqah”; that doesn’t work either. The Zakat is different. The Zakat is Fard, but the Sadaqah is Sunnah and Nafilah. What we call Nafilah (supererogatory) is considered a Sunnah, it is these worships that are done after the Fard. The Hajj issue is also different. Even those who have money cannot go these days. Also in the past years, they couldn’t go either; they were preventing people. What is important is to pray and fast, everybody can do those Fard. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to them. According to the greatness of its rewards, its punishment is also great. It is both big and not compensable. Because when you don’t pray, if Allah did not forgive you, you will pray them in hell. The penalty for each prayer in hell is eighty years. One does not even live in this world for eight years. Most people pass away before eighty years. If you consider a person’s childhood to be ten or fifteen years, a person prays for about fifty or sixty years in this world. So is eighty years worth it for one prayer? The wise person prays immediately and makes up the Qadā (missed) prayers one by one. If he can make them up, he does. If not, Allah will forgive him according to his intention insha’Allah. May Allah grant us to live these beauties Insha Allah.

One of our old brothers came yesterday, he said: “May prayer love me.” May it love you Insha Allah, may it love us all. Those who know the beauty of prayer can’t leave it, even in the most difficult time. They get worried saying, “How can I pray without ever missing?” Otherwise, some just let it go and say, “I’ll pray later, I’m tired now.” Then life just passes by and in the end they’ll regret that they lost so much. There is also a punishment after that. May Allah forgive us all. May Allah accept our prayers.

Don’t give way to Waswasa, “I wonder if it was accepted or not?”. Just pray, Allah doesn’t look at such small things. “Oh was my Wuḍūʾ accepted?” Do not give way to Waswasa thinking whether your

Wuḍūʾ(ablution) was accepted or not. Do not give way to the shaytan’s Waswasa while making Wuḍūʾ. The shaytan starts from the beginning, for us not to pray. We already have laziness, and on top of that he makes Waswasa. They say, “I’m not sure if my Wuḍūʾ is proper or not, I give up, let me not pray.” That’s how shaytan makes people stay away from prayer. Those who have Waswasa, let them know that Waswasa is from shaytan. Allah does not order things that people can’t carry. Do your Wuḍūʾ one time and that’s it; it’s done. Stand in prayer and then go down and up, and Allah will accept it.

May Allah protect us from the evil and Waswasa of shaytan Insha Allah. May Allah give strength to our Iman.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

224.THE TREE OF POLYTHEISM AND UNBELIEF Sunday, 27 December 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. Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, (Qur’ān 16:106). Allah states in the Holy Quran: ‘Whoever disbelieves in Allah after his belief, except for one who is forced [to renounce his religion] while his heart is secure in faith. But those who [willingly] open their breasts to disbelief, upon them is wrath from Allah, and for them is a great punishment.’ Even if people unwillingly say something that Allah will be upset with or are forced to oppose Allah, while their heart is still full of faith because sometimes they may force or torture them, there is nothing against them. As long as there’s faith in their heart, they can repent and Allah will forgive them.

However, if their heart opens up to unbelief, following it and doing by it, then Allah’s wrath is on them. And other than that there is humiliation.

If you love an unbeliever and do what he says, he will not do you good but he will use you, despise you and you will live in humiliation. You can deceive yourself a much as you want, but you are living there without any dignity, in a dishonorable state and in humiliation. Allah will take that dignity and honor that he has given you. If all the unbelievers come, you will still live in humiliation and as a traitor, because you have removed Allah from your heart and you have put unbelief in your heart. That time Allah will punish you. You can console yourself as much as you want, but it is of no use. Even if it is a small thing, you have to get it out of your heart.

Now during these days is the New Year’s Eve. And even though many people are suffering, they’re still considering it, saying let’s do something. It is a sign of unbelief, or rather, the feast of the unbelievers. Instead of saying to people, “This year has passed. Let us repent for the sins we have committed, and ask Allah for forgiveness so He may forgive us”, they are trying to end this year with unbelief and with worse sins.

They say that the new year will bring them good luck, but it will not be a good luck for them, it will be worse. Therefore, what is called a new year is of no value. It is just to inform the people that the year has passed. Allah created the days, months and years just for people to know. It is the same every year. Unless you have changed and unless you have left sinning, there is no benefit. You have humiliation. You have bad luck. You have all kinds of troubles.

They are putting up a tree. That tree is just a sign of polytheism from the top to the bottom. The other day, a Jesuit priest came out and said: “Starting from the star that is put on top of the tree to the tree itself, to Santa Claus, all of it is polytheism.” They say that ‘Isa ‘alayhi s-salam is the son of Allah, Hāshā (far from it). “This is his blood, this is his tree, this is his star...” he counts them one by one. “I’m saying this for us. Don't misunderstand me, it is not for the Muslims”, he says. The man is telling the truth. He shows his own Shirk.

Our foolish people know it as the Christmas tree. However, it is the tree of polytheism and unbelief.

That’s why we need to pay attention to these things. People are sinning when they say, “Let’s celebrate New Year’s Eve”. Even when they decorate, they are also sinning, they are sinning unknowingly. When it is unknowingly, Allah forgives. But if they do it knowingly, that time they become unbelievers. May Allah protect us. There are some things that a Muslim must be aware of. The people of Tariqa must be more vigilant.

The common people are like vermin”. The common people are like the four-legged creatures, they don’t understand. They just imitate what they see. We should not imitate. We should be careful. May Allah protect us. May everything we do for Allah’s pleasure be successful Insha Allah. Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

225.THIS WORLD IS NOT FOREVER Monday, 28 December 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. Our Holy Prophet says that there are two angels that call out every day to people ‘Be born only to be dead and build only to be ruined’. What does this mean? People come into this world temporarily. The end is death, so be born only to be dead and build buildings only to be ruined in the end. This world is not forever.

People get worried when a little thing happens. When there is famine or sickness or something happens, they get worried thinking that they will live forever. However, it is the wisdom of Allah that he created people that way. And it is a world of tests, so there will be a test. The most real thing is death. They never think of death. They do not see it as the truth whereas this is everybody’s end. People take turns. People are passing away, but most people deny this truth. Deny it as much as you want, eventually it will be your turn.

Many people are afraid of death. Whether you fear it or not, it is going to come. In order not to be afraid, be with Allah and know where you are going. That’s why it is said “Die before you die”, so that you know where you are going. A person feels comfortable when he knows what he will do. Just as he has a goal and a job in this world, and he is comfortable that way. But when he loses his job and he does not know what to do, he then gets worried and his life becomes difficult. When a person knows where he is and where he is going, he will be comfortable. Where will we be going? We will be next to Allah. Therefore, those who are with Allah are

not afraid. The world will be destroyed in the end. Allah knows if it will be destroyed with you [alive] or after you, but the world will not remain. Only the hereafter will remain. What is important is the hereafter. While you are in this world, you should not be working for this world but for Allah. Just as our Holy Prophet said, as long as you stay in this world, you should also do your worldly affairs for the sake of Allah. To leave some charity and good works for those who will come after you. What is important is to use this world for the hereafter. It is important not to use the hereafter for this world, but to use this world for the hereafter. You should use this world to be saved in the hereafter, to reach your goal.

When a person knows it that way, he will be comfortable. He will be neither worried nor sad. He will not care about the states of this world, whether it goes up or down. May Allah grant us to believe in that truth and to be with that beautiful truth insha’Allah. May Allah bless us.

May we be happy here and hereafter Insha Allah. Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

226.HEARTS FIND PEACE THROUGH DHIKR Tuesday, 29 December 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. Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, (Qur’ān 13:28). Allah states in the Holy Quran: ‘Unquestionably, by the remembrance of Allah hearts are assured.’ Allah says that hearts find peace through the Dhikr of Allah. The Dhikr of Allah means always remembering Allah. It means He is with me; this is the Dhikr. This is the Dhikr in the hearts, only then can hearts be comfortable. The farther you get away from Allah, the more you lose tranquility, peace and goodness; nothing remains.

In order to find peace, you should always have the Dhikr of Allah in your heart and on your tongue. Dhikr should be in every organ of yours, such that the more organs remember Allah the more you will find peace and tranquility. As for the troubles of this world, nothing will affect you. The further you are from Allah the more restless, unhappy and without blessings you become; all the bad things will happen to you. But if you are with Allah, no matter if it is illnesses or poorness, nothing will affect you. This is what Allah Azza wa Jalla stated in the Qur’an ‘Azimu sh- Shan.

People say, “Let me do this and that, and I will be happier.” But Allah who created us, knows how to make us happy. Does anyone know better than him? Hāshā (far from it)! He knows. He created us and gave us the secret. How will you be happy, how will you be at peace, how will you

be comfortable? Allah Almighty has shown this to us, but people seek this happiness in other places. Some do little things, but for some it is also not enough. Those who are distant from Allah, smoke and drink alcohol. And then alcohol is not enough, so they do drugs. They seek peace and happiness on the opposite side. The more they sink into these things, the worse they get. Those who get away from them, disregard them and believe in Allah are the ones who are happy, comfortable and at peace.

May Allah give us all this strength of faith so that we can be together with Allah and always keep the Dhikr of Allah in our hearts Insha Allah.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

227.ALLAH DOES AS HE WILLS Thursday, 31 December 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. Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, (Qur’ān 85:16). Allah states in the Holy Quran: ‘Effecter of what He intends.’

Allah does as He wills. Everything is in Allah’s hands, He does as He wills. This [Gregorian] calendar is a commercial calendar, one that has no other value. It is for business and work, because days and months are the same every year. So this is not a religious year but let’s call it a commercial year. It’s the end of the year now. 2020 years have passed. Now Muslims think that is it a good thing to celebrate the new year. There’s nothing to celebrate here. Nothing has changed. It doesn’t matter whether you celebrate the new year or not. If you're going to celebrate and sin, there’s no need to celebrate at all.

If you say that it’s a new year, it has become a classic thing now, you are just getting closer to the grave, your life is passing by so there’s no need to celebrate that. You shouldn’t be celebrating, instead you should be accounting yourself for what you’ve done in the past year and repent for it. Make the intention to do better the next year. Don’t go and sin tonight. This night was a night when most sins were committed but thank Allah, because He is ”Effecter of what He intends.’ (Qur’ān 85:16), everything is forbidden. Neither tourists nor locals, nobody is allowed to go out; it is forbidden.

It is the work of Allah. It is the majesty of Allah. He does as He wills. If Allah wants, He can even make people not to be able to breathe. Allah is The Greatest. The greatness and majesty of Allah are incomprehensible. Therefore, we should take a lesson from it. These foolish ones are not taking a lesson. Those who do not believe in the majesty of Allah are not taking a lesson. Let them not take a lesson. If they don’t take a lesson, troubles and calamities will come to them. Let them save themselves. Drinks, drugs and medications will be of no use as long as Allah doesn’t want them to be.

Of course, these New Year’s celebrations did not exist in the past. Who would have celebrated about seventy years ago? No one would even think of it. Then gradually, it became like a Fard (obligatory). Celebrating New Year’s Eve for people is more important than the Fard. It is a must for them, even more than the Fard, to go out on the streets at New Year’s Eve and commit sin. Missing it would seem like a very disastrous thing to them. But when Allah wants, He can stop and forbid them all, and imprison everyone at home.

Thank Allah, tonight coincided with the night of Friday, so it was a good thing. No matter what people say, it was a good thing. They should be saying, “We repent to Allah for our sins.” People should ask for forgiveness and repent for the sins committed in this commercial year. May this new year be a year of repentance to these people, but unfortunately it’s not going to be. They say wish; we wish so insha’Allah. May Allah send the Sahib (owner). Because at the time of Pharaoh, no matter how many miracles Sayyidina Musa ‘alayhi s-salam showed, no matter how many things he did, they said, “Okay, we repent.”, but then they start again. He then showed other miracles: raining frogs, turning water into blood and things that harmed them, so they said: “Alright enough” but then they go back again. The people of this time are the same. When they see difficulty they repent and say: “Alright” and then one minute later they directly go back.

Therefore, May Allah send the Sahib. What we mean by the Sahib is the

savior. He will save us insha’Allah. He will save all humanity, not just Muslims. The salvation of humanity is in Islam. He will make them all Muslim, and that is how we will be saved. May Allah help us. May Allah protect us Insha Allah. Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
