Suhbah 2021: Maulana Shaykh Mehmet Adil ar-Rabbani (2/25)
https://www.nvrislam.net/index.php?j=eng&post=5577
mes of fitnah, of dissensions and discords. Don’t get involved in the fitnah because those who get involved and those who cause it are cursed, Allah’s curse is upon them. The ones who are cursed by Allah aren’t good people because shaytan is cursed, he was the first one to be cursed by Allah and those who are like him have been cursed as well. People sometimes think that they’re doing something good, but they unknowingly become a tool in that fitnah. Fitnah is a bad thing for people, it’s never something that results in goodness.
As we said, we are living in end times so may Allah protect us from fitnah because if fitnah came with the curse, darkness and gloom, troubles and calamities will descend. It is a cause for all sorts of sufferings and evil. When Allah shows something as good, it is good for us, for humanity and when he shows it as evil, no matter how much they try to show it as good, it is bad and evil, it’s never going to give benefit, it’s only going to give harm.
Of course the one who causes the fitnah is shaytan and he’s going to be a tool. There are many people who are following shaytan and since he’s cursed they’re also being cursed. What we are to do is to advise them to
stay away from fitnah and not to follow other people. If there are others who are following fitnah we need to tell them that this isn’t a good thing, and they must know that it’s a bad thing in their hearts.
These people can’t be right because the things that they’re coming out with and ordering are totally against Allah’s commands, but the complete opposite of them, they’re contrary to human nature and contrary to everything. They’re like a tumor, when doctors find out that it’s a tumor they say: “Let’s cut it out”, so they try to save the person from it by cutting it and throwing it away. It’s the same with fitnah, there’s a punishment for them both in this world and in the next. May Allah protect us all.
There are many great fitnas occurring in end times, may Allah protect us from them. May Allah send the Sahib (owner) and may he cut and throw away those who are causing the fitnah Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
7.BE CLEAN Thursday, 7 January 2021
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: “You will be numerous at that time: but you will be scum and rubbish like that carried down by a torrent.” Our Holy Prophet said that in end times muslims will be plenty but just like the foam on the sea, they will have no use. You might think that the sea foam is valuable but it has no effect, use or power. We are living in those times, muslims are more than a billion, they’re one and a half billion or two billion but they have no value whatsoever. Why? Because they’re not on the path of Allah and they’re not doing what Allah wants from them, they have deviated into other paths. They say that they’re muslims but they’re not following the path of the Prophet. They’re neither following nor applying the Sunnah of the Prophet, they even call those who are applying it Mushriks (polytheists). They’re just working against other muslims and fighting between each other.
Therefore, there’s no value or use for them, they’re like a toy in the hand of others, just being played with. All of this comes from the fitnah, dissension of end times. Those who are attempting to do good works are being opposed by many, different types of tricks and evil. But as we see, power isn’t necessarily with the majority. Instead, as our Prophet said, they’re worthless like foam. Those who are with Allah are the strong and steady ones. They’re the ones who will be victorious Insha Allah and who will deliver the trust to the Sahib (owner). When the Sahib comes he will take away all these dirty things.
The world is full of filth now and they want more as if it isn’t already enough. They’ve ruined everything in this world. Why? Because of this dirt and filth. What is meant by filth is Najāsa, unclean things that need to be cleaned. What will happen if you don’t clean it? The water gets muddy, it stinks and fills up with microbes. You can’t eat or drink it, whatever you eat or drink becomes poisonous for you. Allah loves what is clean.
The first order of worship in our religion is cleanliness. If there’s no cleanliness, neither prayer nor supplication (dua) is accepted. You need to be clean and dress clean so that you may be with the clean ones. This world is drowning in filth and dirt in every sense of the word. May Allah send the Sahib Insha Allah. The more difficult it is the more there will be a need for the savior. The savior is Mahdi alaisalam, may he appear as soon as possible Insha Allah.
Today, neither muslims nor people have any hope left, but hope in Allah shouldn’t be cut. Allah promises the truth, Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Allah will clean the whole world and fill it with light, He will send such a person to do this soon Insha Allah because it has reached that time now.
Everything has reached its rightness in every sense, so the person who will clean all that will come Insha Allah. May he make us reach to him Insha Allah, may he protect us and strengthen our faith Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
8.WRITE IT DOWN Saturdy, 9 January 2021
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. Yesterday someone was asking us if there’s a dua for the person who lies, he’s asking this so he can stop lying. There’s no dua for that but the person has to do it himself, he needs to make the effort to stop lying. The issue that he’s speaking about is actually harder; [because] why is the other side lying? It’s because the person lent him money without a written agreement. He gave him an opportunity to deny that he lent him money and so he stole from him. But the person who’s actually making them commit this sin is the one who lent him the money.
Despite that people are going through hard times right now, they sometimes borrow money to spend in unnecessary places. We’ve already mentioned before regarding lending money to people. A person shouldn’t lie and in order to avoid misunderstandings, he should follow and obey Allah’s commands. Allah says in the Holy Quran, ‘O you who have believed, when you contract a debt for a specified term, write it down. And let a scribe write [it] between you in justice.’ (Qur’ān 02:282).
If you’re to borrow or lend money write it down in an agreement, and it’s better if it was dated for it to be payed on time. Write it down, don’t say he’s my relative or my friend. Brother or not you should also follow the command of Allah, this is the command of Allah. This is how it should go: “We’re going to write this down, you borrowed such and such money from me, you’re going to pay it back to me on this date.” And if he can’t pay it back, the person can delay it or ask for his money
back, it’s his right. But without writing anything, you’re also making the other person commit a sin, he would be stealing and lying as well.
Therefore, people who know the laws of Islam should at least know these. Some things need to be written down so that in the future a problem doesn’t arise. If you haven’t written it down, you can’t ask for a dua. The dua doesn’t apply to such people and most of the time it doesn’t work, because dua is for good works and it applies to good works only, it doesn’t work for people who don’t intend good like this. Allah has given everybody a mind and an intellect.
Those who claim to be muslim should know. It should be clear, this is how much I gave you, this is how much I took. If you don’t pay it in this world certainly Allah will take it from you, that person will take his right from you in the hereafter. Gold, dollars or euros do not apply in the hereafter, none of that is worth anything.
What is of worth there are the good deeds that you have. If you don’t pay it back in this world, you’ll pay it in the hereafter with those deeds so that person forgives you of his rights, otherwise you’ll go to hell. And if you don’t have any good deeds to pay back with, you’re going to take the sins of that person. But we can’t consider those people who infringe on the rights of others from the ones who do good works to gain good deeds anyway. Therefore, we need to warn and remind each other. We must show the right way, we shouldn’t give such opportunities to people because we don’t want people to be held accountable for these matters in the hereafter. We want it to be done here, in this world, so we may go to the hereafter clean Insha Allah. We don’t want anyone to have rights upon them for the hereafter.
May Allah protect us from the evils of our ego (nafs) and may He strengthen our faith Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
9.THE TEST OF ILLNESS Monday, 1 February 2021
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. Alhamdulilh wa-shukrulilah. Thanks be to Allah, this test has passed, thank God. Disease is also a test; it is something that happens to everyone; it is Allah's will. It is a blessing; the things Allah gives are blessings. Thanks be to Allah, Allah also gave health.
It is the wisdom of Allah that the greatest healing is in prayers. Prayer is healing. Thanks to the dua of the believers and the dua of the ikhwans, we have our health. Thanks be to Allah, and with thanking Allah the blessings increase. The greatest blessing is health and well-being, as our Prophet said. He says when you pray, ask forgiveness from Allah; ask for forgiveness and health.
The one who is ill knows the value of that blessing better and gives thanks more, because Allah has given such a blessing. And yet people are ungrateful, and do not know its value. If you give thanks all of your life for the slightest blessing of bodily health, it will still be less gratitude for it than Allah deserves.
However, Allah is generous. He gives without looking [to keep count], and says, “take it.” Pay attention, be grateful so that more can come. Allah full of glory gave such blessings from His greatness, and gave them with such generosity, but people are ungrateful. They do not know the value of anything. Those who rebel against Him already deserve hell; there is nothing else we can say. Amidst such tests,
disbelief peaks again, rebellion against Allah peaks. May Allah protect us. May He help us, and have us not be among those people, because if those people do not repent, they will suffer all kinds of evil.
Muslims are silent, but they thank God. They know the blessings that Allah has given. May Allah help us. Insha ‘Allah, we will always be with the truth, and that is the most important thing. Insha’ Allah, we will not fail the test. "Believers are always on the side of good,” our Prophet says. A believer is in a good state even if he is sick, or he is good if not. When he is sick, Allah rewards for his gratitude, and those who die from such an epidemic are considered martyrs.
Allah has given the believers every kind of good. Be with Allah, and you will find what is good. Those who are against Allah, even if they had not only the whole world, but ten more worlds, it would still have no value and would be useless. What good can a person do who does not even benefit himself?
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
10.COMPETENT Tuesday, 2 February 2021
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, Allah azza wa jalla says, "If you are going to do something, if you want to consult, if you are going to do anything, ask the competent person, and get an opinion from him." (Quran 25:59).
Everyone who does not understand can give an opinion, of course. You should ask the competent person, someone who has experience or knowledge of the subject at hand.
If you ask just anyone, you won’t learn anything. If in the end you follow your own knowledge, and do what you know, maybe it will turn out right and maybe not. If not, then you will feel regret.
Regarding important matters, people are often used to asking around indiscriminately. Since they do not ask someone competent, they act and later regret what they did. You will be treated to "he said that, he said this ...”, and if you do your own treatment, eventually you will just become sicker. When you have an important job to do, but do not ask someone competent for advice, you will either end up punished or hurt.
You should get permission from the shaykh in important matters. It is important. Yesterday, for example, one of our brothers who had build something, found that the contractor had made a mess of it, had not contributed anything, and in the end had left this brother in debt.
Millions of men are already doing this kind of work. If you go for advice to the one who has knowledge, you will be able to protect your rights will be taken care of in two minutes, whereas otherwise you might find that have wasted your own resources. Allah also will ask you, Why did you waste your resources like this? You also made someone else involved in haram.” After that, your project is a waste, and you think how to get rid of it. So if instead you were to ask a knowledgable person, the matter could be solved in the simplest way, and you will come out on top and the other person will not be put into sin.
This is not a one-sided issue, so it is necessary to think from all sides. So if you ask someone competent person and have pay three or five cents for advice, do that too. It will not be free, but what is useful does not come for free. If you go to an incompetent doctor, you will be hurt. You might go to him because he is cheap, but you will could lose your life after that. Allah azza wa jalla points it out and orders people to be competent. What you know, or what Allah has given you as a talent, you can use that talent and be competent. It will be a benefit for you and others.
So may Allah have us meet competent people, Insha Allah. And meeting people who are competent for the hereafter is even more important, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
11.ALLAH’S DOOR Wednesday, 3 February 2021
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 with us, thanks be to Allah. A person should always remember Allah whether he is in a test or in relaxed state. These days are strange days for the whole world. Thanks be to Allah, people are still more comfortable around in these environs. So why is it comfortable? Because mosques are open, the adhan is heard, the Friday Prayers are performed in jamaat. These things are not available everywhere.
They thought it would be better to close the mosques, but it became worse, because mosques are the houses of Allah. How do you close them, just because something happened? [Shaykh Efendi is referring to a Turkish government decision made with the intention to slow the spread of the virus.] You will beseech Allah there [in the mosques]; you will seek healing from Allah. You can go to Allah's house and ask for whatever you want.
Wherever else you may close things on all sides, but it is not acceptable for mosques to be closed. No matter how hard it is, mosques should be open and not closed. Everything is in His hands, but as for shutting His house, Allah ‘azza wa jalla says in the Glorious Quran, Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wa-anna l-masājid l-Llāh.” (Qur’ān 72:18) “And indeed the mosques belong to Allah.” “Go there, gather there, do all your work there,” it means. How will it be, if you close it? Here we see how closing places is worse.
When there is a problem, people will be in the mosque. They will be everywhere else too, but the important thing is that the mosques are open. If you go to the door of a government [office] or something [and find that it] is closed, can you do anything? No way.
The biggest door is the door of Allah, and Allah ‘azza and jalla said that these doors are to be open. When it is open, I hope that that door will not turn anyone away, that it will not look like other things, that it will not be like other places.
They say that often a door is like a wall, one goes and comes back empty-handed, but one should never be turned away from Allah's door.
So just as it is always necessary to beseech Allah, know that Allah is with you when there is trouble, and do not be afraid! Whatever happens is with the permission of Allah and if Allah does not want something, it will be impossible.
When you are troubled, you must definitely recite a hundred times, "La hawla vela kuwwata illa billahil aliyyil azim," and a hundred, "Hasbinallahu ve nimel wakeel" every day. They will relieve you of your troubles, increase your rank, increase your rewards with Allah, and Allah knows what and how much He will give. There is no reason to worry or fear, everything happens by the permission of Allah; it happens with the knowledge of Allah and nothing happens without His knowledge. Not even a single thing can move.
May Allah guide the people, because even at such as this time the perverts and those who go astray neither take lessons nor understand anything. May God give guidance, may Allah give intelligence and thought, and may He give strength to our faith.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
12.TO SPEAK OF GOOD Thursday, 4 February 2021
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 believer either says something good or is silent,” says our Prophet. If he does not say something good, it is better to keep silent, because his silence is a charity, whereas speaking evil would be a harm, and then if he does not repent, it is written onto the page of his sins.
People talk, and if someone does not talk, they [try to] shame him. He says, “Talk! You are free.” There is freedom to speak as much as you want. [But] when you speak, if you don’t say something good, evil happens, and you cannot take it back. Unable to get it back, most people out of ignorance [double down and] insist on it [even] more, rather than repenting of it and forgiving.
The door of repentance is open, and the door of repentance asks [Allah to wait] for eight hours every day before writing it on one’s page, our Prophet says so. If he passes up that opportunity, it is written, yet even if it after it has been written, the door of repentance will not be closed, in case a person repents again. But even though this is the case, people still justify what they do, and they say this because of their arrogance.
He has what is called arrogance: the poor, the rich, all of them. But, as our Prophet said, arrogance in the poor is worse. That is why his insistence on something, and his arrogance, increases his sin even more. He has both arrogance and has spoken bad words, [if] he insists on that bad word, and does not repent, his sin increases even more.
May Allah protect us, let us always be people who accept the good, the right, and who do good. He either does not make a sound against that injustice so as to bring benefit to an unjust situation, or if he does, he says something that makes it worse.
May Allah protect us from it and have us see the truth as the truth. May He let us be with the truth, as our Prophet said.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
13.GIFTS OF JUMAH Friday, 5 February 2021
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. Today is the Holy day of Jumah (Friday). Jumah is a holy day for all muslims: both the living and the deceased; it is a holy day for all.
Today, gifts are sent to the deceased ones. Good deeds are done with prayers, recitations of the Quran, Sadaqah, Tasbihat and Zikr; it all reaches them today. They know the value of this day better than we do. We say: “Ok, it is Jumah today so tomorrow is the weekend.” Those who don’t go to Jumah [prayer] don’t even think about the prayer and the day, yet the virtue of this day is great. May Allah make us amongst those who know the value of this day. Especially reciting Surat Al-Kahf today, it is a protection for us from Yājūj and Mājūj (Gog and Magog) and the Dajjal (False Messiah/ Antichrist). There are certain verses in the beginning and at the end of the Surah, so even if you can’t read the whole Surah you can just read these verses and it’ll be of benefit. There are certain Sunnahs that are done on the day of Jumah (Friday), and it is much better to do them on this day than on other days. People should be ambitious for the hereafter and try to do as much as possible, whatever they can do. If they do it knowing the value of this day, it will be more acceptable. May Allah bless it and accept it from us Insha Allah. Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
14.HIS GLORY Saturday, 6 February 2021
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, Allah states in the Holy Quran: ‘And no sign comes to them from the signs of their Lord except that they are from it turning away.’ (Qur’ān 36:46). No matter how much evidence and signs Allah shows people, they [again] stay away and do not pay attention to them.
Most people go according to their own minds, desires and ego (nafs); they do not follow what Allah shows and commands them. They do not accept what Allah commands and insist on living according to their own thinking. Go ahead, live as you like, but then there will be a punishment and its punishment is huge. It’s not like in this world where you can hire a lawyer and get rid of evidence; there is no such thing there [hereafter].
Allah has shown you signs and evidence. Everything shows His existence and points to His glory and magnificence yet people think: ‘I’m just going to live as I like then die and that’s it, there’s nothing afterwards’, but there is. There is a judgment and following that judgement and questioning there is a punishment. You will suffer that punishment and nobody can take care of you there. Nobody will vouch for you, neither your father and mother nor your siblings, nobody.
When the truth is seen there, everybody will think about saving themselves and they will try to save themselves only. They will have no thought of you or others. In any event, people of today, and because they do not believe in the hereafter, say: “We’re just going to live and die and that’s it.” However, Allah’s promise is the truth, everything He promise will happen and we will see it all.
Allah doesn’t tyrannize anybody, those who tyrannize are people; humans tyrannize themselves. If you go after lowly and dismal people you will suffer the consequences and the punishment. You think that you’re enjoying yourself here yet you’re just making yourself go lower and lower. You’re doing all sorts of filthy things here and then you think that you’re going to be saved. There is no safety in doing that, the only safety is in going back to Allah, turning to Him, believing in Him, asking Him for forgiveness and repenting.
Allah is the All- Forgiving. Allah will not turn back a servant who repents to Him. And for all the sins they have committed, He can turn them into good deeds and rewards.
This door is Allah’s beautiful door, it is the door of generosity and mercy.
Allah says to people: “Oh people! Turn back to me”. For those who are oppressing themselves, do not oppress yourselves and Allah will not oppress you; turn back to Allah.
May we turn back to Allah. May Allah protect us and may He strengthen our faith Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
15.VALUE Sunday, 7 February 2021
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 Allah states in the Holy Quran: ‘They have not appraised Allah with true appraisal’. (Qur’ān 39:67). They have not appreciated Allah. People do not truly know the value of Allah. They have not given Allah his right. Allah’s right is the greatest right. Allah Azza Wa Jalla, Glorious and Exalted is He, has created us in the most beautiful manner. Nowadays they say: “We come from monkeys”, they misguide people and deny what Allah has created. So they do not appreciate Allah and then they say: “People’s ears are going to grow longer, we are going to grow a tail, the head will form this way and that way”, this is the nonsense talk of crazy ones.
Allah has created us in the most beautiful way. Would it have been better if He had created us with four legs? Would we have been better if we had longer ears? He created us in the best way, and in the most appropriate way for this life amongst all these creatures. Allah created all of them perfect accordingly, yet He created humanity in the most perfect manner.
Allah has created the son of man as His representative (Khalifah) on earth, representing Him; that’s how He placed us here. He has created us in the most beautiful manner, yet people don’t know the value and don’t appreciate Allah’s Power, Glory and Grandeur; they need to know. Allah is great, He has shown and put miracles in everything.
If it weren’t for the will of Allah in the smallest atom, nothing would be left. Not just this world but the whole universe would be gone if Allah says, “Be gone”. He says, “Be," and it is. Everything happens after that, things that a man can’t imagine and things that can’t even fit his imagination.
Allah has such a power but man can’t fathom that. We just need to appreciate it as much as we can and surrender to Him. We need to understand that we’re living through His Grace, and through His Favor He has given us everything; we need to know this.
Rain, air, water, earth, soil, vegetables, fruits and all of these are just little things, what’s more important is the soul in your body. He gave us this soul and that is only known by Allah. He is the only One who knows about the soul.
They say we have advanced so much in technology, but they can’t reach that and they will not be able to reach it. Most scholars and scientists who accept the truth, know Allah and acknowledge Him. Those who do not, try to misguide people and work at it.
Allah is the Most Glorious and Grand One. He has given us so much grace and favors, we need to appreciate it and be grateful to Him. Thanks be to Allah for His blessings and bounties; may He increase them even more Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
16.SAINTS OF ALLAH Monday, 8 February 2021
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.
In the sight of Allah, there are certain precious and valuable people whom He loves. They are the Awliya, Saints of Allah. Awliya could be anybody, they do not necessarily have to show Karāmāt (miraculous deeds). The Awliya are those whom Allah loves, His beloved servants. This is what we should seek and want because this is the true profit and gain.
There are people who love you, yet the real and true love is the love of Allah, when Allah loves you. Others, especially bad friends, claim to love you, but they put you at loss in this world and the next. In this world, they will make you a slave to your own ego (nafs) and give you a bad reputation so you would lose your reputation. Yet when you are a beloved of Allah, you win. Even if nobody knows about you in this world, as long as Allah loves you, you are a winner.
Our Holy Prophet states in the Hadith Sharif that Allah has certain servants whom He loves, that nobody pays attention to or even gives value to. They stay in furlong places and in the corners here and there. You would think that they are people that don’t deserve respect and don’t have any value. They themselves also think as such because since they are with Allah, they don’t care whether anybody loves them or not; they are hidden ones most of the time.
There are all types of such people yet since they have found true love: The Love of Allah, they don’t care about anybody or anything. They don’t care whether people give them respect and value or not, they’re not saddened or bothered by that at all. But people of this world, worldly people, and in the smallest matters, think: ‘Well he didn’t see me, he didn’t pay me any attention, he didn’t respect me or give me any value’, they get offended and are cross with people.
Whereas those Holy Ones don’t care at all. Even if the whole world didn’t acknowledge them, they like it better that way. They are people with intellect. They are the winners and the clever ones whom the Holy Prophet and Allah love, and that is what’s important.
May we be amongst those whom Allah loves. May Allah increase our love for our Holy Prophet Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
17.MUSLIMS ARE FOR THE HEREAFTER Sunday, 14 February 2021
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’s attribute is, Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, ’‘Effecter of what He intends.’’ (Qur’ān 85:16). He does as He wills and whatever He wants. He does everything as He wishes. You cannot ask Him about why He did this and that. This is the creed of Muslims and it is the same with all the religions, but they changed it according to their own minds and corrupted their religion. They want to make Allah and picture Him as they like, far be it from Him. If they do something according to human thinking, they would be opposing Allah. They question: ‘Why did this happen? Why did that happen?’ There’s no such thing in Islam and with Muslims.
Allah created us and everything occurs as He wants. They’re trying to put this in the minds of Muslims too, but thank Allah this isn’t such a thing as mushrooms. Islam and Iman (faith) are like a great old tree, your mushroom just pops up once and goes away. They’re old-aged trees that are solid; they’re old and come from ages ago.
Christians and Jews, well Jews are a little more connected to their religion, but Christians have made things according to their own thinking and minds. They claim that Hazrat Isa (as), Jesus Christ is the son of God, far be it from him. That comes from idol- worship, paganism. They’ve changed their religion and corrupted it as they liked. Those who are Muslim do not object. We say Allah wanted it and willed it this way, that’s it. There’s no opposition because of what is
happening, what Allah wills. You can oppose other things but you cannot oppose the will of Allah, people should know this. When you accept that it’s done by the will of Allah, everything becomes easy and accepting it would also be easy. If people accept the things that are done, that way they would be patient and as a result of that patience Allah will reward them multiple times.
Those ones are worldly people, but Muslims and Islam are for the here

mes of fitnah, of dissensions and discords. Don’t get involved in the fitnah because those who get involved and those who cause it are cursed, Allah’s curse is upon them. The ones who are cursed by Allah aren’t good people because shaytan is cursed, he was the first one to be cursed by Allah and those who are like him have been cursed as well. People sometimes think that they’re doing something good, but they unknowingly become a tool in that fitnah. Fitnah is a bad thing for people, it’s never something that results in goodness.
As we said, we are living in end times so may Allah protect us from fitnah because if fitnah came with the curse, darkness and gloom, troubles and calamities will descend. It is a cause for all sorts of sufferings and evil. When Allah shows something as good, it is good for us, for humanity and when he shows it as evil, no matter how much they try to show it as good, it is bad and evil, it’s never going to give benefit, it’s only going to give harm.
Of course the one who causes the fitnah is shaytan and he’s going to be a tool. There are many people who are following shaytan and since he’s cursed they’re also being cursed. What we are to do is to advise them to
stay away from fitnah and not to follow other people. If there are others who are following fitnah we need to tell them that this isn’t a good thing, and they must know that it’s a bad thing in their hearts.
These people can’t be right because the things that they’re coming out with and ordering are totally against Allah’s commands, but the complete opposite of them, they’re contrary to human nature and contrary to everything. They’re like a tumor, when doctors find out that it’s a tumor they say: “Let’s cut it out”, so they try to save the person from it by cutting it and throwing it away. It’s the same with fitnah, there’s a punishment for them both in this world and in the next. May Allah protect us all.
There are many great fitnas occurring in end times, may Allah protect us from them. May Allah send the Sahib (owner) and may he cut and throw away those who are causing the fitnah Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
7.BE CLEAN Thursday, 7 January 2021
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: “You will be numerous at that time: but you will be scum and rubbish like that carried down by a torrent.” Our Holy Prophet said that in end times muslims will be plenty but just like the foam on the sea, they will have no use. You might think that the sea foam is valuable but it has no effect, use or power. We are living in those times, muslims are more than a billion, they’re one and a half billion or two billion but they have no value whatsoever. Why? Because they’re not on the path of Allah and they’re not doing what Allah wants from them, they have deviated into other paths. They say that they’re muslims but they’re not following the path of the Prophet. They’re neither following nor applying the Sunnah of the Prophet, they even call those who are applying it Mushriks (polytheists). They’re just working against other muslims and fighting between each other.
Therefore, there’s no value or use for them, they’re like a toy in the hand of others, just being played with. All of this comes from the fitnah, dissension of end times. Those who are attempting to do good works are being opposed by many, different types of tricks and evil. But as we see, power isn’t necessarily with the majority. Instead, as our Prophet said, they’re worthless like foam. Those who are with Allah are the strong and steady ones. They’re the ones who will be victorious Insha Allah and who will deliver the trust to the Sahib (owner). When the Sahib comes he will take away all these dirty things.
The world is full of filth now and they want more as if it isn’t already enough. They’ve ruined everything in this world. Why? Because of this dirt and filth. What is meant by filth is Najāsa, unclean things that need to be cleaned. What will happen if you don’t clean it? The water gets muddy, it stinks and fills up with microbes. You can’t eat or drink it, whatever you eat or drink becomes poisonous for you. Allah loves what is clean.
The first order of worship in our religion is cleanliness. If there’s no cleanliness, neither prayer nor supplication (dua) is accepted. You need to be clean and dress clean so that you may be with the clean ones. This world is drowning in filth and dirt in every sense of the word. May Allah send the Sahib Insha Allah. The more difficult it is the more there will be a need for the savior. The savior is Mahdi alaisalam, may he appear as soon as possible Insha Allah.
Today, neither muslims nor people have any hope left, but hope in Allah shouldn’t be cut. Allah promises the truth, Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Allah will clean the whole world and fill it with light, He will send such a person to do this soon Insha Allah because it has reached that time now.
Everything has reached its rightness in every sense, so the person who will clean all that will come Insha Allah. May he make us reach to him Insha Allah, may he protect us and strengthen our faith Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
8.WRITE IT DOWN Saturdy, 9 January 2021
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. Yesterday someone was asking us if there’s a dua for the person who lies, he’s asking this so he can stop lying. There’s no dua for that but the person has to do it himself, he needs to make the effort to stop lying. The issue that he’s speaking about is actually harder; [because] why is the other side lying? It’s because the person lent him money without a written agreement. He gave him an opportunity to deny that he lent him money and so he stole from him. But the person who’s actually making them commit this sin is the one who lent him the money.
Despite that people are going through hard times right now, they sometimes borrow money to spend in unnecessary places. We’ve already mentioned before regarding lending money to people. A person shouldn’t lie and in order to avoid misunderstandings, he should follow and obey Allah’s commands. Allah says in the Holy Quran, ‘O you who have believed, when you contract a debt for a specified term, write it down. And let a scribe write [it] between you in justice.’ (Qur’ān 02:282).
If you’re to borrow or lend money write it down in an agreement, and it’s better if it was dated for it to be payed on time. Write it down, don’t say he’s my relative or my friend. Brother or not you should also follow the command of Allah, this is the command of Allah. This is how it should go: “We’re going to write this down, you borrowed such and such money from me, you’re going to pay it back to me on this date.” And if he can’t pay it back, the person can delay it or ask for his money
back, it’s his right. But without writing anything, you’re also making the other person commit a sin, he would be stealing and lying as well.
Therefore, people who know the laws of Islam should at least know these. Some things need to be written down so that in the future a problem doesn’t arise. If you haven’t written it down, you can’t ask for a dua. The dua doesn’t apply to such people and most of the time it doesn’t work, because dua is for good works and it applies to good works only, it doesn’t work for people who don’t intend good like this. Allah has given everybody a mind and an intellect.
Those who claim to be muslim should know. It should be clear, this is how much I gave you, this is how much I took. If you don’t pay it in this world certainly Allah will take it from you, that person will take his right from you in the hereafter. Gold, dollars or euros do not apply in the hereafter, none of that is worth anything.
What is of worth there are the good deeds that you have. If you don’t pay it back in this world, you’ll pay it in the hereafter with those deeds so that person forgives you of his rights, otherwise you’ll go to hell. And if you don’t have any good deeds to pay back with, you’re going to take the sins of that person. But we can’t consider those people who infringe on the rights of others from the ones who do good works to gain good deeds anyway. Therefore, we need to warn and remind each other. We must show the right way, we shouldn’t give such opportunities to people because we don’t want people to be held accountable for these matters in the hereafter. We want it to be done here, in this world, so we may go to the hereafter clean Insha Allah. We don’t want anyone to have rights upon them for the hereafter.
May Allah protect us from the evils of our ego (nafs) and may He strengthen our faith Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
9.THE TEST OF ILLNESS Monday, 1 February 2021
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. Alhamdulilh wa-shukrulilah. Thanks be to Allah, this test has passed, thank God. Disease is also a test; it is something that happens to everyone; it is Allah's will. It is a blessing; the things Allah gives are blessings. Thanks be to Allah, Allah also gave health.
It is the wisdom of Allah that the greatest healing is in prayers. Prayer is healing. Thanks to the dua of the believers and the dua of the ikhwans, we have our health. Thanks be to Allah, and with thanking Allah the blessings increase. The greatest blessing is health and well-being, as our Prophet said. He says when you pray, ask forgiveness from Allah; ask for forgiveness and health.
The one who is ill knows the value of that blessing better and gives thanks more, because Allah has given such a blessing. And yet people are ungrateful, and do not know its value. If you give thanks all of your life for the slightest blessing of bodily health, it will still be less gratitude for it than Allah deserves.
However, Allah is generous. He gives without looking [to keep count], and says, “take it.” Pay attention, be grateful so that more can come. Allah full of glory gave such blessings from His greatness, and gave them with such generosity, but people are ungrateful. They do not know the value of anything. Those who rebel against Him already deserve hell; there is nothing else we can say. Amidst such tests,
disbelief peaks again, rebellion against Allah peaks. May Allah protect us. May He help us, and have us not be among those people, because if those people do not repent, they will suffer all kinds of evil.
Muslims are silent, but they thank God. They know the blessings that Allah has given. May Allah help us. Insha ‘Allah, we will always be with the truth, and that is the most important thing. Insha’ Allah, we will not fail the test. "Believers are always on the side of good,” our Prophet says. A believer is in a good state even if he is sick, or he is good if not. When he is sick, Allah rewards for his gratitude, and those who die from such an epidemic are considered martyrs.
Allah has given the believers every kind of good. Be with Allah, and you will find what is good. Those who are against Allah, even if they had not only the whole world, but ten more worlds, it would still have no value and would be useless. What good can a person do who does not even benefit himself?
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
10.COMPETENT Tuesday, 2 February 2021
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, Allah azza wa jalla says, "If you are going to do something, if you want to consult, if you are going to do anything, ask the competent person, and get an opinion from him." (Quran 25:59).
Everyone who does not understand can give an opinion, of course. You should ask the competent person, someone who has experience or knowledge of the subject at hand.
If you ask just anyone, you won’t learn anything. If in the end you follow your own knowledge, and do what you know, maybe it will turn out right and maybe not. If not, then you will feel regret.
Regarding important matters, people are often used to asking around indiscriminately. Since they do not ask someone competent, they act and later regret what they did. You will be treated to "he said that, he said this ...”, and if you do your own treatment, eventually you will just become sicker. When you have an important job to do, but do not ask someone competent for advice, you will either end up punished or hurt.
You should get permission from the shaykh in important matters. It is important. Yesterday, for example, one of our brothers who had build something, found that the contractor had made a mess of it, had not contributed anything, and in the end had left this brother in debt.
Millions of men are already doing this kind of work. If you go for advice to the one who has knowledge, you will be able to protect your rights will be taken care of in two minutes, whereas otherwise you might find that have wasted your own resources. Allah also will ask you, Why did you waste your resources like this? You also made someone else involved in haram.” After that, your project is a waste, and you think how to get rid of it. So if instead you were to ask a knowledgable person, the matter could be solved in the simplest way, and you will come out on top and the other person will not be put into sin.
This is not a one-sided issue, so it is necessary to think from all sides. So if you ask someone competent person and have pay three or five cents for advice, do that too. It will not be free, but what is useful does not come for free. If you go to an incompetent doctor, you will be hurt. You might go to him because he is cheap, but you will could lose your life after that. Allah azza wa jalla points it out and orders people to be competent. What you know, or what Allah has given you as a talent, you can use that talent and be competent. It will be a benefit for you and others.
So may Allah have us meet competent people, Insha Allah. And meeting people who are competent for the hereafter is even more important, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
11.ALLAH’S DOOR Wednesday, 3 February 2021
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 with us, thanks be to Allah. A person should always remember Allah whether he is in a test or in relaxed state. These days are strange days for the whole world. Thanks be to Allah, people are still more comfortable around in these environs. So why is it comfortable? Because mosques are open, the adhan is heard, the Friday Prayers are performed in jamaat. These things are not available everywhere.
They thought it would be better to close the mosques, but it became worse, because mosques are the houses of Allah. How do you close them, just because something happened? [Shaykh Efendi is referring to a Turkish government decision made with the intention to slow the spread of the virus.] You will beseech Allah there [in the mosques]; you will seek healing from Allah. You can go to Allah's house and ask for whatever you want.
Wherever else you may close things on all sides, but it is not acceptable for mosques to be closed. No matter how hard it is, mosques should be open and not closed. Everything is in His hands, but as for shutting His house, Allah ‘azza wa jalla says in the Glorious Quran, Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wa-anna l-masājid l-Llāh.” (Qur’ān 72:18) “And indeed the mosques belong to Allah.” “Go there, gather there, do all your work there,” it means. How will it be, if you close it? Here we see how closing places is worse.
When there is a problem, people will be in the mosque. They will be everywhere else too, but the important thing is that the mosques are open. If you go to the door of a government [office] or something [and find that it] is closed, can you do anything? No way.
The biggest door is the door of Allah, and Allah ‘azza and jalla said that these doors are to be open. When it is open, I hope that that door will not turn anyone away, that it will not look like other things, that it will not be like other places.
They say that often a door is like a wall, one goes and comes back empty-handed, but one should never be turned away from Allah's door.
So just as it is always necessary to beseech Allah, know that Allah is with you when there is trouble, and do not be afraid! Whatever happens is with the permission of Allah and if Allah does not want something, it will be impossible.
When you are troubled, you must definitely recite a hundred times, "La hawla vela kuwwata illa billahil aliyyil azim," and a hundred, "Hasbinallahu ve nimel wakeel" every day. They will relieve you of your troubles, increase your rank, increase your rewards with Allah, and Allah knows what and how much He will give. There is no reason to worry or fear, everything happens by the permission of Allah; it happens with the knowledge of Allah and nothing happens without His knowledge. Not even a single thing can move.
May Allah guide the people, because even at such as this time the perverts and those who go astray neither take lessons nor understand anything. May God give guidance, may Allah give intelligence and thought, and may He give strength to our faith.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
12.TO SPEAK OF GOOD Thursday, 4 February 2021
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 believer either says something good or is silent,” says our Prophet. If he does not say something good, it is better to keep silent, because his silence is a charity, whereas speaking evil would be a harm, and then if he does not repent, it is written onto the page of his sins.
People talk, and if someone does not talk, they [try to] shame him. He says, “Talk! You are free.” There is freedom to speak as much as you want. [But] when you speak, if you don’t say something good, evil happens, and you cannot take it back. Unable to get it back, most people out of ignorance [double down and] insist on it [even] more, rather than repenting of it and forgiving.
The door of repentance is open, and the door of repentance asks [Allah to wait] for eight hours every day before writing it on one’s page, our Prophet says so. If he passes up that opportunity, it is written, yet even if it after it has been written, the door of repentance will not be closed, in case a person repents again. But even though this is the case, people still justify what they do, and they say this because of their arrogance.
He has what is called arrogance: the poor, the rich, all of them. But, as our Prophet said, arrogance in the poor is worse. That is why his insistence on something, and his arrogance, increases his sin even more. He has both arrogance and has spoken bad words, [if] he insists on that bad word, and does not repent, his sin increases even more.
May Allah protect us, let us always be people who accept the good, the right, and who do good. He either does not make a sound against that injustice so as to bring benefit to an unjust situation, or if he does, he says something that makes it worse.
May Allah protect us from it and have us see the truth as the truth. May He let us be with the truth, as our Prophet said.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
13.GIFTS OF JUMAH Friday, 5 February 2021
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. Today is the Holy day of Jumah (Friday). Jumah is a holy day for all muslims: both the living and the deceased; it is a holy day for all.
Today, gifts are sent to the deceased ones. Good deeds are done with prayers, recitations of the Quran, Sadaqah, Tasbihat and Zikr; it all reaches them today. They know the value of this day better than we do. We say: “Ok, it is Jumah today so tomorrow is the weekend.” Those who don’t go to Jumah [prayer] don’t even think about the prayer and the day, yet the virtue of this day is great. May Allah make us amongst those who know the value of this day. Especially reciting Surat Al-Kahf today, it is a protection for us from Yājūj and Mājūj (Gog and Magog) and the Dajjal (False Messiah/ Antichrist). There are certain verses in the beginning and at the end of the Surah, so even if you can’t read the whole Surah you can just read these verses and it’ll be of benefit. There are certain Sunnahs that are done on the day of Jumah (Friday), and it is much better to do them on this day than on other days. People should be ambitious for the hereafter and try to do as much as possible, whatever they can do. If they do it knowing the value of this day, it will be more acceptable. May Allah bless it and accept it from us Insha Allah. Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
14.HIS GLORY Saturday, 6 February 2021
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, Allah states in the Holy Quran: ‘And no sign comes to them from the signs of their Lord except that they are from it turning away.’ (Qur’ān 36:46). No matter how much evidence and signs Allah shows people, they [again] stay away and do not pay attention to them.
Most people go according to their own minds, desires and ego (nafs); they do not follow what Allah shows and commands them. They do not accept what Allah commands and insist on living according to their own thinking. Go ahead, live as you like, but then there will be a punishment and its punishment is huge. It’s not like in this world where you can hire a lawyer and get rid of evidence; there is no such thing there [hereafter].
Allah has shown you signs and evidence. Everything shows His existence and points to His glory and magnificence yet people think: ‘I’m just going to live as I like then die and that’s it, there’s nothing afterwards’, but there is. There is a judgment and following that judgement and questioning there is a punishment. You will suffer that punishment and nobody can take care of you there. Nobody will vouch for you, neither your father and mother nor your siblings, nobody.
When the truth is seen there, everybody will think about saving themselves and they will try to save themselves only. They will have no thought of you or others. In any event, people of today, and because they do not believe in the hereafter, say: “We’re just going to live and die and that’s it.” However, Allah’s promise is the truth, everything He promise will happen and we will see it all.
Allah doesn’t tyrannize anybody, those who tyrannize are people; humans tyrannize themselves. If you go after lowly and dismal people you will suffer the consequences and the punishment. You think that you’re enjoying yourself here yet you’re just making yourself go lower and lower. You’re doing all sorts of filthy things here and then you think that you’re going to be saved. There is no safety in doing that, the only safety is in going back to Allah, turning to Him, believing in Him, asking Him for forgiveness and repenting.
Allah is the All- Forgiving. Allah will not turn back a servant who repents to Him. And for all the sins they have committed, He can turn them into good deeds and rewards.
This door is Allah’s beautiful door, it is the door of generosity and mercy.
Allah says to people: “Oh people! Turn back to me”. For those who are oppressing themselves, do not oppress yourselves and Allah will not oppress you; turn back to Allah.
May we turn back to Allah. May Allah protect us and may He strengthen our faith Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
15.VALUE Sunday, 7 February 2021
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 Allah states in the Holy Quran: ‘They have not appraised Allah with true appraisal’. (Qur’ān 39:67). They have not appreciated Allah. People do not truly know the value of Allah. They have not given Allah his right. Allah’s right is the greatest right. Allah Azza Wa Jalla, Glorious and Exalted is He, has created us in the most beautiful manner. Nowadays they say: “We come from monkeys”, they misguide people and deny what Allah has created. So they do not appreciate Allah and then they say: “People’s ears are going to grow longer, we are going to grow a tail, the head will form this way and that way”, this is the nonsense talk of crazy ones.
Allah has created us in the most beautiful way. Would it have been better if He had created us with four legs? Would we have been better if we had longer ears? He created us in the best way, and in the most appropriate way for this life amongst all these creatures. Allah created all of them perfect accordingly, yet He created humanity in the most perfect manner.
Allah has created the son of man as His representative (Khalifah) on earth, representing Him; that’s how He placed us here. He has created us in the most beautiful manner, yet people don’t know the value and don’t appreciate Allah’s Power, Glory and Grandeur; they need to know. Allah is great, He has shown and put miracles in everything.
If it weren’t for the will of Allah in the smallest atom, nothing would be left. Not just this world but the whole universe would be gone if Allah says, “Be gone”. He says, “Be," and it is. Everything happens after that, things that a man can’t imagine and things that can’t even fit his imagination.
Allah has such a power but man can’t fathom that. We just need to appreciate it as much as we can and surrender to Him. We need to understand that we’re living through His Grace, and through His Favor He has given us everything; we need to know this.
Rain, air, water, earth, soil, vegetables, fruits and all of these are just little things, what’s more important is the soul in your body. He gave us this soul and that is only known by Allah. He is the only One who knows about the soul.
They say we have advanced so much in technology, but they can’t reach that and they will not be able to reach it. Most scholars and scientists who accept the truth, know Allah and acknowledge Him. Those who do not, try to misguide people and work at it.
Allah is the Most Glorious and Grand One. He has given us so much grace and favors, we need to appreciate it and be grateful to Him. Thanks be to Allah for His blessings and bounties; may He increase them even more Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
16.SAINTS OF ALLAH Monday, 8 February 2021
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.
In the sight of Allah, there are certain precious and valuable people whom He loves. They are the Awliya, Saints of Allah. Awliya could be anybody, they do not necessarily have to show Karāmāt (miraculous deeds). The Awliya are those whom Allah loves, His beloved servants. This is what we should seek and want because this is the true profit and gain.
There are people who love you, yet the real and true love is the love of Allah, when Allah loves you. Others, especially bad friends, claim to love you, but they put you at loss in this world and the next. In this world, they will make you a slave to your own ego (nafs) and give you a bad reputation so you would lose your reputation. Yet when you are a beloved of Allah, you win. Even if nobody knows about you in this world, as long as Allah loves you, you are a winner.
Our Holy Prophet states in the Hadith Sharif that Allah has certain servants whom He loves, that nobody pays attention to or even gives value to. They stay in furlong places and in the corners here and there. You would think that they are people that don’t deserve respect and don’t have any value. They themselves also think as such because since they are with Allah, they don’t care whether anybody loves them or not; they are hidden ones most of the time.
There are all types of such people yet since they have found true love: The Love of Allah, they don’t care about anybody or anything. They don’t care whether people give them respect and value or not, they’re not saddened or bothered by that at all. But people of this world, worldly people, and in the smallest matters, think: ‘Well he didn’t see me, he didn’t pay me any attention, he didn’t respect me or give me any value’, they get offended and are cross with people.
Whereas those Holy Ones don’t care at all. Even if the whole world didn’t acknowledge them, they like it better that way. They are people with intellect. They are the winners and the clever ones whom the Holy Prophet and Allah love, and that is what’s important.
May we be amongst those whom Allah loves. May Allah increase our love for our Holy Prophet Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
17.MUSLIMS ARE FOR THE HEREAFTER Sunday, 14 February 2021
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’s attribute is, Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, ’‘Effecter of what He intends.’’ (Qur’ān 85:16). He does as He wills and whatever He wants. He does everything as He wishes. You cannot ask Him about why He did this and that. This is the creed of Muslims and it is the same with all the religions, but they changed it according to their own minds and corrupted their religion. They want to make Allah and picture Him as they like, far be it from Him. If they do something according to human thinking, they would be opposing Allah. They question: ‘Why did this happen? Why did that happen?’ There’s no such thing in Islam and with Muslims.
Allah created us and everything occurs as He wants. They’re trying to put this in the minds of Muslims too, but thank Allah this isn’t such a thing as mushrooms. Islam and Iman (faith) are like a great old tree, your mushroom just pops up once and goes away. They’re old-aged trees that are solid; they’re old and come from ages ago.
Christians and Jews, well Jews are a little more connected to their religion, but Christians have made things according to their own thinking and minds. They claim that Hazrat Isa (as), Jesus Christ is the son of God, far be it from him. That comes from idol- worship, paganism. They’ve changed their religion and corrupted it as they liked. Those who are Muslim do not object. We say Allah wanted it and willed it this way, that’s it. There’s no opposition because of what is
happening, what Allah wills. You can oppose other things but you cannot oppose the will of Allah, people should know this. When you accept that it’s done by the will of Allah, everything becomes easy and accepting it would also be easy. If people accept the things that are done, that way they would be patient and as a result of that patience Allah will reward them multiple times.
Those ones are worldly people, but Muslims and Islam are for the here
