Suhbah 2021: Maulana Shaykh Mehmet Adil ar-Rabbani (14/25)
https://www.nvrislam.net/index.php?j=eng&post=5589
. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying. "Men they are nothing prevent them from anything, tijārah (business), or other, or these doctors, Ph... PhD... what is this? So al-ḥamdu liLlāh, don't listen these people, not important. They also, they do this for, without... with knowing, or without knowing with shayṭān. So don't listen with this.
There is thousands of, millions of scholars ‘ālim coming since Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam, all of them they was respecting and they are humble and they are poor people and they're not looking for to be famous. These people they see, they say this also to be famous – they said something another people they not say this. But it is not important, Allāh... The important thing to be wisdom with knowledge. Without wisdom, knowledge it is only garbage, not knowledge. So Mawlānā once, one man he was named Ḥikmah. Ḥikmah, Hikmet meaning wisdom in Arabic. He said this man is his name Hikmetsiz – without ḥikmat – his name ḥikmah but without ḥikmat, wisdom without wisdom. So Allāh give us to be wisdom, to, not in university. In university you can learn everything but you have something it must be to make this machine to work, battery or petrol or anything. And this is wisdom, and wisdom you cannot find in university. You find only near murshid.
This is very important. There must be for everyone – murshid. There is thousands of murshids, alḥamdulilah in Islamic country, if they want to see, to find, research, search, research you can find easily, Insha Allah. By good intention, Allāh opens for them, Insha Allah.

110.IT CANNOT BE MORE BEAUTIFUL Monday, 12 July 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.
Shukr to Allāh, we are in such condition. Everything beautiful we have is given to us by Allāh. "Alḥamdulilah ‘alá kulli ḥāl." Praises to Allāh in every state. We have to make shukr because everything happens by His will. We should not complain about anything, for Allāh wishes goodness in everything for His believing servants.
When a person is a believer, he attains the biggest favours. We should make shukr because of this. Nothing can be as valuable as this favour. No gratitude can cover the value of the favour of īmān. The most correct thing we can do is to make shukr to Allah, all praise to Allah.
There was a brother we used to call Uncle Mehmet. He did a lot of service. Mawlānā loved him. When asked how he was, he would reply, "Shukr to Allāh, things couldn't be better." He would say, "Things couldn't be better." He would repeat it on every occasion. This is a nice memory of him. It is something everyone should do, everyone who is Muslim. Because Allāh gives rewards for everything. Nothing goes unnoticed. You should have faith. You should be a servant to Allāh like He orders so that this favour reaches to you, that this favour is given to you.
The lives of people, who take things for granted and rebel against Allāh, are empty. They are worthless. They can dignify themselves and be proud as much as they want, they are leading empty lives. And
everything they do turns out useless for them. They don't get any reward for the sufferings they go through because they rebelled against Allāh. They didn't believe in Allāh and as they didn't believe in Allāh, they don't believe in everything else. Mankind can have very strange conditions. Sometimes you just get astonished.
Our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is saying, "Tafakkur sā‘atin khayrun min ‘ibādati sab‘īn sanah." To think for an hour is better than to worship for 70 or 100 years. Because a person who thinks must accept this thing. He shouldn't take this risk. There is suffering in this world and eternal suffering in Ākhirah for those who don't know this favour and don't make shukr for it. Therefore, we are making shukr, thousands, millions of shukr to Allāh for giving us this favour. We ask that Allāh gives guidance to everyone.
And Allāh knows best. We are, ṭarīqah people especially, thanking Allāh for His favour, for good thing for us. We are thanking for these things, especially in these days, which whole people before, they was forgetting bad thing – they thought they are controlling everything. But now all they are, they don't know what to do. They are afraid. But who has īmān – belief, he is happy. Whole time he must be happy, thankful for Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla because He give him this ni‘mah – provision of īmān, belief. With this, you are winner.
Everything you get in this life, all – everything you will [be] reward on this. Even hot or cold or tired, all – everything Allāh not let anything without reward for mu’min, for believer. They are, Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, He said for mu’min, "Everything good for mu’min. Anything happen for him, good or difficult thing, Allāh reward him about this." So for this, we must be every time thanking Allāh for what He gave us. And we are lucky. Unlucky people who are – they are they are not believer – unbeliever. This people whole life it is no value. Anything they can do, they do; they feel also [at the] end of their life, the nothing valuable for them. We have one doctor he was, his father write many books about this doctor's thing. Whole life he was very careful about this and he write many book. And when he come to age of eighty,
he not giving any value for this. They say – his children they tell him: "We must keep this or must print..." "Eh no, no, no nothing, don't do anything, I don't like this." He know he is, before he was thinking this valuable. But the end he find his whole life it was no value what he do or whatever. Because just for time of what he was earning or from money, from anything, only at that time. No, nothing behind this. In dunyā, whole life empty. Valuable: not... no value of this life. For Ākhīrah also, nothing coming with them. Even they are suffering from every bad thing – from illness from this, from that, but when they are not believer – no value. All this, no reward from Allāh. So this people they must...
Most of people world like this. They are not... They thinking only here and nothing else. For this Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying, "To thinking one hour really about your life, about the life of human, about everything, better than worshipping seventy year or hundred year from worshipping." Because maybe in one hour, if you really concentrate and look, Allāh will give you hidāyah. But when you are not – you are not interesting, you don't have anything, and no valuable for your life. This life for believer, it is very nice.
And there was one murīd, old one, Mawlānā was liking him. He very... maybe he was seventy year but he was very active, very serving, doing everything. He asked, every time, he asked him, "How are you?", he said, "I am very good and this what we are in very nice, very beautiful, cannot be more beautiful than this what we have now." Every time like this.
So our every second, every minute we are in life, it is for us also must be very beautiful, very nice. Especially now we are all blessed – Dhū l- Ḥijjah, ten days of Dhū l-Ḥijjah – second day and this also every second, more and more beautiful than other. Allāh bless us and keep us in this way, Insha Allah. This nice way.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
111.FORGET AND FORGIVE Tuesday, 13 July 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.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla created everything beautiful and everything with benefit. Allāh created everything that is useful for people. One of them is to forget.
The word "insān" – human being, comes from the word "nisyān" – to forget. It is a derivative of "forgetting". Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla created everything... Rare people have strong memory, not forgetting.
In general, people forget. Some people forget very often, some a little but all of them forget. And mostly people complain about forgetfulness. But it is something Allāh created for us. It is given for mankind's benefit and in order to show their weakness. It is an attribute given to people by Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. People are able to continue living because of it. All the suffering and bitter moments seem unforgettable to a person in the beginning. They are very tough. He says, "How will I live with this"? And then slowly Allāh covers it with forgetting from day to day, and life goes on. Otherwise, if a person remembered all the suffering and sorrow, he couldn't carry them. He can't carry and then gives up.
Certainly, there are wounds that are unforgettable, but not like in the beginning. Whatever it is, the suffering it causes can't be the same as on the first day. It fades away slowly and will pass. But the other tough times, in hunger, misery, or illness, people forget them when they end. They are over and life goes on. This is by the wisdom of Allāh ‘Azza wa-
Jalla. You may not like some things but they are good for you, says Allah. " ‘Asá an takrahū shay’an wa- huwa khayrun lakum wa-‘asá an tuḥibbū shay’an wa-huwa sharrun lakum" (2:216). You don't like some things and they are good for you. You like some things but they are bad for you. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla addresses mankind in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh- Sha’n. Certainly, one of these things that Allāh gave us is forgetfulness.
There is this and another thing. People who are mu’min forget bad things more often. This is from the beautiful orders of the religion which says to forget the badness done to you and not to forget the goodness. This is nice. Islām is like this. It is tolerant towards all people. Everything in the past is erased when someone reverts from kufr. It is forgotten then. But kuffār are not like this. Kuffār are vengeful, they don't forget. It is the attribute of kuffār. The attribute of the mu’min is to forget badness and to start over when someone becomes good.
May Allāh let us always remember goodness and forget badness, Insha Allah.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He make for us, create as a body, He create for us also, attribute. One of attribute to human being, human being in Arabic named – insān. Insān meaning coming from "nisyān". This is from meaning forgetting, "nisyān" – to forget. Insān coming from "nisyān", this from word "nisyān" meaning whole human being they're forgetting. Some of them they forget little bit, some more, some too much, but all of them they forget.
There is of course, rare one of human being, not forgetting anything and this is also will of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla to make some people like this to make, if they're Muslim, believer, to keep religion through them, through their knowledge to continue this. Because some of them when they read something they are can be saying without any mistake. This what happen when Mongol Genghis Khan or Hulagu coming to Baghdad and he destroyed whole library of Baghdad and killed Khalīfah. New Khalīfah was very sad and said, "Who? Why?" He was very sad. Someone come and tell him, "I can make this whole library. I
know by heart, I can make it again." So he make it in few years, whole this he was knowing. This also from Allāh gift for Ummah. So there is some people like this, but this of course rare, rare as it is no, we say, al- nādir kal-ma‘dūm.
So this is what, for human being, attribute to for be forget. It is good, necessary for people. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla create for us to forget in our life, what we have from beginning our life until young life or old life. Whole in this life, people suffering.
Most of people suffering from something or many thing. So if not forgetting this, it will be their life impossible to live with all this suffering what they have, not forgetting. Like... because when something happen this what happen, sometimes small thing even, your whole day you become like unhappy and you lose your control yourself. You are not eating, drinking. Some of them more. So this one, people, before twenty years or before ten year or before one year even, people they forget and they be continue their life without thinking. What you think only nice thing before from old time. Bad thing most of people they're not thinking, even if they are think, without... they forget most of them.
Only you cannot forget big thing happen, but it is rare not so one. But real it will be very painful, very big thing. You said, "I will never forget. How i can continue my life with this pain, with this, loss?" when we lose many thing. But after little bit, little bit, also forget but of course not forget completely, but also your forget is enough to continue your life without problem. You used to this. But also from this attribute of forgetting, you, make you Allāh day by day to forget this pain, to forget this loss what you... big thing. But other thing, you are never for... remember even many of these thing. Maybe what you remember from when if you are 60 year or 50 year – maybe five or ten big thing make you feel sad or unhappy. But it's also you used for this and you said, "It is from Allāh and it is like this, we cannot do anything." So this is what benefit of forgetting.
And for also some thing in Islām they said, "You must forget what they done for you, against you. Don't remember this. Forget, forget and forgive, no need to remember." But because Islām religion of mercy, also once somebody leave their old life and beginning for Islām, old life, all what they done, all of them this finish, forget. Like many of ṣaḥābah, they was before Islām, enemy and they killed too much, too many ṣaḥābah. Even these people they forgive and they forget this. This is Islām and this is how Muslim they must be. No... Kin (grudge). No grudge.
But other, who are, they have not believer, they have this grudge and they not forget at all. Even they said, "After hundred year even, we'll be take revenge from our ancestor. From thousand years ago, we also we get revenge." So this is what nonbelievers... But Muslim they are forget and they forgive.
This is we ask Allāh to forgive us and to make us to forgive people, Insha Allah.

112.EVERYONE THINKS HE KNOWS BEST Wednesday, 14 July 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 ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says that one of the signs of the end of times, "I‘jāba kulli dhī ra’yin bi-ra’yih," is that everyone likes his own idea. Everyone likes his own opinion and dislikes that of everyone else. Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam points at this as a sign of the end of times and to signal Judgement Day is near.
And what does it mean to like your own opinion? There is this thing called democracy now. Everyone speaks his mind. Everyone likes himself and dislikes others. It is fine for worldly matters. Everyone may like his own ideas and walk on his own path. Some people succeed and others fail. Some are good and some are bad. People can get their punishment in this world. But they carry the punishment of these worldly matters here. And if they take nothing to Ākhirah, still they can live in this world either in suffering or in goodness.
But you cannot have opinions for the matters of Ākhirah. That has already been decided. You cannot stand up and say, "I don't like this. I prefer it a different way." Even if you do, it won't be useful to you or to others. There will be fitnah. And you will be punished both here and hereafter for this. It will be without benefit.
Don't start useless things. Even if your ego wants such things, stay away from them. Because nowadays the whole world thinks they can do
something based on their opinions. "I will say my opinion..." You can say as much as you like, you can't change this world. Those who control the world will play with you like a toy. You can't take anything. You just keep saying it in your place. If you say it for your Ākhirah, it will destroy your Ākhirah too. You can say your opinion. But you must accept the Book, the sunnah, everything accepted in the way of Allāh and of ṭarīqah. You can't go beyond that. If you want to do something like learning or teaching, you should know this very well. You must teach people the truth, the way it comes from our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.
Some people write books and this and that. You must show those books to competent people and ask if there are mistakes in it. You should break your ego and show it to those who know. If there is a mistake, you will be punished for that mistake. Whoever reads your book and makes a mistake, it will be written for you too. One person, two people – all of them.
Therefore, it's not an accomplishment to publish a book because of the desire of your ego. An accomplishment is to make something useful. And useful is what is right. What is not right is without benefit.
May Allāh not separate us from the right way, Insha Allah.
Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying for end of time – we are living in this end of time – to everyone he be happy and proud with his idea for what he thinking.
This is, Bismi Llāhi... "I‘jāba kulli dhī ra’yin bi-ra’yih," to be happy and to proud think, he think it is the best idea for whole mankind.
This not one [person] thinking this. Millions, billions they thinking this. You can imagine how it is funny thing this what they said. They're laughing on these people, they say democracy. Democracy? This is democracy – everyone must be happy with his idea. He must give his idea and to be happy with this, not accept another one.
"Everyone they have idea maybe, but my idea it is the best." This one, this no-mind people, they said they thought they have good idea, "No, no, I am have this very good idea can save whole world," they said. Everyone they saying this.
This is Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying and describing this time which before, old time, it was not like this. No nobody can say "I have this idea." Maybe some people can be like this but now everybody they are saying this. This for dunyā can be. Everybody saying this for they not like how other people they are ruling, or how other people building, or how other people doing business. Everything you can be you thought, you can thought it is your idea the best for this. No problem for this.
But also this democracy it is big lie, cheating people. Only they said you can do this and everything but when real coming to appoint people for power, ruling countries, they have a special people. You cannot go out of these people. This is must be everybody knowing this.
But this is for dunyā – it is not important. They can do anything, they can like... any idea, anything they can do. But for who... Not good this – to be proud for his idea and to think... to give his thought for people to for religion thing.
Religion thing, you cannot think, you cannot say, "My idea best." If your idea according to Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, Sunnah and Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n, okay. And [according to] for madhhab and ṭarīqah, this is okay. You can continue. But if you think, "This not good. I will do better." This is not good idea at all. Because for dunyā, for this world, first idea to think, "I can do anything better for these people," good but for religion... Maybe in dunyā you can be succeed or not succeed. You... Many people they have idea, billions of people they have idea. Maybe thousand, or ten thousand, or hundred thousand be succeed. Okay. But other it will be no succeed but they continue. No problem. But for thinking for religion, for Islām, "I can, I have idea better. I can write book and it will be the most succeed. People, they'll be
happy with me and I will be happy for this." If it is according for way of Prophet thinking, for mashāyikh, for ṣaḥābah - it will be good. But if not, it is you have problem because everyone read your book, and after they be in wrong, you will be asked for this, for each one you do this. For this, when you have something, some idea like this, you must ask people who are they have experience, they have knowledge for this.
Because many people from the, listening from here, there and they try to make book. And when somebody coming and saying for them, "This is not right," they become very angry, not accept. These people, they don't have any good think, good idea, meaning. Good idea to be accept truth, accept... but knowledge people saying to correct what is wrong and to leave right one in your book or in your... anything you do.
This is very important because when some people they... nobody without wrong. Everybody, we are human being, every time we can make mistake, make wrong thing. So you must accept naṣīḥah, advice, and ask what is right, what is not right. When you know exactly like this you can... you can continue.
Because many times, with good intention, people they write book, but after this they harm too much – ṭarīqah, and mashāyikh, and the most harmful thing, for people they intend to be in this way, way of ṭarīqah, way of sharī‘ah, in way of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, but these people they said, "Look what these people they write their book – whole wrong thing, whole everything mistake. They mix up, up down. Better for you to run away from these people."
This is what happened many time and this is what people thought they were doing good but really they be reason for people to not be in this blessed way, good way, way of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, the purest way, ṭarīqah Naqshbandiyyah. Allāh keep us away from our ego desire and accept truth even for ourself.
Don't be say, "I not doing mistake." Everybody can do mistake. Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, "Kullu banī Ādama khaṭṭā’un wa-khayru
l-khaṭṭāīna t-tawwābun." Aw kamā qāl ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Every son of Ādam or daughter of Ādam they are, they make mistake. Nobody not make mistake. Only of course prophets this is of course very rare. For whole common thing, everybody make mistake.
Allāh, Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam and the best one who repent and ask for forgiveness from Allāh. Allāh forgive us.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
113.THE WAZĪFAH FOR YAWMU ‘ARAFAH Saturday, 17 July 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.
Allāh is giving the virtues of this holy month. They are given as favours to us. Today is the seventh of this holy month and tomorrow is the eighth. They call it Yawmu t-Tarwiyah. It is good to fast for nine days but fasting on the eighth and ninth is also blessed and accepted. If you can't fast for two days, fasting on the ninth, on Yawmu ‘Arafah is certainly a beautiful gift from Allāh to every Muslim. We shouldn't miss it.
They say opportunities are in dunyā. This world is a place of opportunity. Indeed, it is a place of opportunities. Whoever has got a chance for Ākhirah has got a real chance. And for dunyā, they say this world is a place of opportunities. Most people can't take a share from dunyā. They can't have it as they want. Very few have it. And they can have it either through suffering, or by the kindness of Allāh. But for Ākhirah, opportunities are open for everyone. By the wisdom of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, there are so rich people in this world and there are so poor people and those in the middle. They are like this for dunyā. But for Ākhirah, Allāh gave this chance to everyone. Whoever misses it, will regret it.
You struggle for this world. Many people come and say, "Our work was going to take off but is bad now. " What can we do? It's the will of Allāh. Allāh is not giving, so you can't do it. Because, as we said, this world has rich, poor, and middle people. But for Ākhirah, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla
opened it equally for everyone. Everyone can take and use a lot from those favours. No one will be told not to take. They are told to take but people are not taking. Why aren't you taking? They say, "I can't do it." They do everything but cannot perform this worship and good deeds. These are holy days given to us by the kindness of Allāh.
Fasting tomorrow, on Yawmu t-Tarwiyah has very big virtues. We are telling from today, for sometimes it reaches our brothers and those who listen, very late. Who says it is too hot this year and he can't fast should certainly fast on the ninth. The more difficult it is, the more favours from Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. A reward for easy things is different than for hard things, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla rewards differently. Worship performed on Yawmu 'Arafah is more acceptable.
We should recite 1,000 Ikhlāṣ Sharīf especially for this day. As we said, until this news reaches you, sometimes our people deliver it too late, when it is over. Therefore, we should say from now. On Yawmu 'Arafah: 1,000 Ikhlāṣ Sharīf, 1,000 Astaghfiru Llāh, 1,000 Lā ilāha illā Llāh. Recite ṣalawāt as much as you want.
May Allāh make it a means for goodness for many more coming years, Insha Allah. May we be protected from these troubles. May Allāh protect us from these ongoing games. May protect from the games of shayṭān. They started a war till the end. May Allāh Allāh protect all of us from it. May He give the safety of īmān. May we be with Allāh, Insha Allah.
We are speaking also for this blessed month, month of Dhū l-Ḥijjah. Tomorrow it will be eight of Dhū l-Ḥijjah. And it is very blessed day before ‘Arafāt, nine of Dhū l-Ḥijjah. The most blessed one [is] nine of Dhū l-Ḥijjah. But all these nine days very blessed. Who fast in these days, as he fast one year. But the most precious eight and nine. This is from Allāh gift for Ummah, Ummat Sayyidunā Muḥammad ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. And it is open for everybody can take as much they like.
We are living in life which it is... For living in this life, many people they struggle to be get good job, good house, good car, and everything they want to get the best one. But of course this is life, Allāh create people levels for to live in this dunyā, this world. Not whole of them it will be rich. Like what this Communism they try, hundred year or ninety-eight years, they try to make people they said, "No difference between people. All we live same level of standard of life." This is ridiculous because Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He don’t want this. He make people [in] levels. Some of them higher in his job, some of them lower. Some of them higher in his knowledge, some of them not so, don't have knowledge. It is like this.
Not like Communism they make even. When they make this – they must be all same level – they was not succeed. Even in Communism there was many level for them, like politburo or other. Many, many they have also level in Communism. So it is anywhere in world, everybody has level, has something to get. But for Ākhirah not like this. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He open for everybody they can be, if they be making worshipping and doing. It is open for everybody. Everybody can be take as much they like. But nobody, many few people they are interesting about Ākhirah. For dunyā they struggle, struggle but what they Allāh give them naṣīb, qismat, they are taking this. But for Ākhirah it is open. As much you can take, take.
And we are in this blessed day which it is too much blessed barakah and reward. You can take as much you can take. For this we saying tomorrow, Insha Allah, we fast and after tomorrow. But now it is some people they said, "It is very hot. We cannot fast." Don't miss nine of Dhū l-Ḥijjah Yawmu ‘Arafah, the most blessed day – Yawmu ‘Arafah. And this day you make tasbīḥāt, dhikr. Especially there is thousand time Sūrah Ikhlāṣ, some thousand time "astaghfiru Llāh", thousand time, "lā ilāha illā Llāh Muḥammadur Rasūlu Llāh ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam." Don't miss this.
We are saying from now because sometimes it become late this information. So, Insha Allah, don't miss this. It is gift from Allāh for us,
for Ummat Muḥammad. And Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is happy when you accept His gift and do what He want. He will be give you from His endless treasure for your soul and for your body also, Insha Allah. Insha Allah, Allāh keep us from this time of difficult time with worshipping, with doing this. Allāh keep us safe from every badness, Insha Allah.
It is our belief and must be belief for human being because they are by their hand, they are touching this now, these days. Every time they said, "We succeed to finish this illness," [it is] coming from other side. They are not asking help from Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. They try to do by themself. Every time they do without help of Allāh, nothing happen.
And we are, Insha Allah, asking from Allāh to help us and to protect us from this bad thing, illness or another kind of bad thing. From with this blessed day, Allāh accept our du‘ā’ and keep us safe, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
114.MERCY IS FOR THE MERCIFUL Sunday, 18 July 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 religion of Islām is the religion of mercy. "Man lā yarḥam lā yurḥam," says our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Whoever is not merciful – there is no mercy for him. Mercy is from Allāh. Those who don't show mercy to people and call themselves Muslims, who oppress other Muslims, Allāh doesn't show mercy to them. Because oppression is not the glory of Allāh. It is not the glory of Islām.
Islām is the religion of mercy, it always does goodness and shows goodness to people. "Wa- f‘alū l-khayra la‘allakum tufliḥūn" (22:77). Do goodness. When you do goodness, you'll be in happiness. When you are merciful... All the orders of Allāh say to show mercy to people. Whoever is not merciful shouldn't say he is Muslim or mention it as if it were an order of Islām. The order of Islām is to be merciful. Oppression is not from the orders of Islām.
There are many groups now, they say they are Muslim and make oppression. And their oppression is against other Muslims. They also say... They make fitnah. They are soldiers of shayṭān. They are with shayṭān and not together with Allāh. They are not ḥizbu Llāh (party of Allāh). All of them are ḥizbu sh-shayṭān (party of shayṭān). There is a lot of ḥizbu sh-shayṭān who claim to be Muslim and oppress Muslims. All of them are ḥizbu sh-shayṭān. You shouldn't pay attention to them. And there are many such groups. People think they are something important and try to help them and they are only together with shayṭān. Who is
together with shayṭān, everyone who is against Islām, in short, is from the people of shayṭān. Nothing else. Don't be cheated.
The kāfir will never help you. If they are helping, then there is some treachery or personal interest behind it. When there is a big interest, they force themselves to comply with you until they get what they want. Therefore, whoever is with them, they will end up just like them. Their ends won't be good. May Allāh protect us. For the honor of these holy days, may Allāh protect people from their oppression. We hear that it is rising again. Their oppression has shown up again. They make fatwás as they like to oppress Muslims. And they are attacking people's property, honour, everything.
May Allāh protect us. May Allāh bring victory to Islām. May their evil turn back on them. Allāh is Powerful over everything. Therefore, don't be afraid.
Tomorrow is Yawmu 'Arafah, Insha Allah. These are holy days now. People who are Muslim show respect to these months. But those people don't respect anything. They respect neither Allāh, nor our Holy Prophet, neither days, nor nights. They don't honour anything. As we said, may Allāh give them disappointment and defeat, Insha Allah.
Tomorrow is Yawmu 'Arafah. It is a holy day and has its duties. One of the duties, Insha Allah, is to make takbīr after the farḍ of fajr prayer. Takbīr is made until ‘aṣr prayer on the fourth day of ‘Īd. May Allāh bless it, Insha Allah. May it be good.
Islām religion – religion of Islām, it is only for mercy, mercy for people, nothing else. Who, Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying, "This is mercy. Who will not be mercy for people, Allāh will be not mercy for him." Mercy for poor people, for normal – all human being to be mercy – it is our religion order. Don't oppress anyone, don't kill anyone, don't steal, don't do bad thing for people. All this, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla order in Qur’ān and to to be mercy for people. Our... But when people not mercy for other people, this people, "Man lā yarḥam lā yurḥam." "Who
not be mercy for people, He will be not be mercy for him." Mercy for op

. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying. "Men they are nothing prevent them from anything, tijārah (business), or other, or these doctors, Ph... PhD... what is this? So al-ḥamdu liLlāh, don't listen these people, not important. They also, they do this for, without... with knowing, or without knowing with shayṭān. So don't listen with this.
There is thousands of, millions of scholars ‘ālim coming since Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam, all of them they was respecting and they are humble and they are poor people and they're not looking for to be famous. These people they see, they say this also to be famous – they said something another people they not say this. But it is not important, Allāh... The important thing to be wisdom with knowledge. Without wisdom, knowledge it is only garbage, not knowledge. So Mawlānā once, one man he was named Ḥikmah. Ḥikmah, Hikmet meaning wisdom in Arabic. He said this man is his name Hikmetsiz – without ḥikmat – his name ḥikmah but without ḥikmat, wisdom without wisdom. So Allāh give us to be wisdom, to, not in university. In university you can learn everything but you have something it must be to make this machine to work, battery or petrol or anything. And this is wisdom, and wisdom you cannot find in university. You find only near murshid.
This is very important. There must be for everyone – murshid. There is thousands of murshids, alḥamdulilah in Islamic country, if they want to see, to find, research, search, research you can find easily, Insha Allah. By good intention, Allāh opens for them, Insha Allah.

110.IT CANNOT BE MORE BEAUTIFUL Monday, 12 July 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.
Shukr to Allāh, we are in such condition. Everything beautiful we have is given to us by Allāh. "Alḥamdulilah ‘alá kulli ḥāl." Praises to Allāh in every state. We have to make shukr because everything happens by His will. We should not complain about anything, for Allāh wishes goodness in everything for His believing servants.
When a person is a believer, he attains the biggest favours. We should make shukr because of this. Nothing can be as valuable as this favour. No gratitude can cover the value of the favour of īmān. The most correct thing we can do is to make shukr to Allah, all praise to Allah.
There was a brother we used to call Uncle Mehmet. He did a lot of service. Mawlānā loved him. When asked how he was, he would reply, "Shukr to Allāh, things couldn't be better." He would say, "Things couldn't be better." He would repeat it on every occasion. This is a nice memory of him. It is something everyone should do, everyone who is Muslim. Because Allāh gives rewards for everything. Nothing goes unnoticed. You should have faith. You should be a servant to Allāh like He orders so that this favour reaches to you, that this favour is given to you.
The lives of people, who take things for granted and rebel against Allāh, are empty. They are worthless. They can dignify themselves and be proud as much as they want, they are leading empty lives. And
everything they do turns out useless for them. They don't get any reward for the sufferings they go through because they rebelled against Allāh. They didn't believe in Allāh and as they didn't believe in Allāh, they don't believe in everything else. Mankind can have very strange conditions. Sometimes you just get astonished.
Our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is saying, "Tafakkur sā‘atin khayrun min ‘ibādati sab‘īn sanah." To think for an hour is better than to worship for 70 or 100 years. Because a person who thinks must accept this thing. He shouldn't take this risk. There is suffering in this world and eternal suffering in Ākhirah for those who don't know this favour and don't make shukr for it. Therefore, we are making shukr, thousands, millions of shukr to Allāh for giving us this favour. We ask that Allāh gives guidance to everyone.
And Allāh knows best. We are, ṭarīqah people especially, thanking Allāh for His favour, for good thing for us. We are thanking for these things, especially in these days, which whole people before, they was forgetting bad thing – they thought they are controlling everything. But now all they are, they don't know what to do. They are afraid. But who has īmān – belief, he is happy. Whole time he must be happy, thankful for Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla because He give him this ni‘mah – provision of īmān, belief. With this, you are winner.
Everything you get in this life, all – everything you will [be] reward on this. Even hot or cold or tired, all – everything Allāh not let anything without reward for mu’min, for believer. They are, Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, He said for mu’min, "Everything good for mu’min. Anything happen for him, good or difficult thing, Allāh reward him about this." So for this, we must be every time thanking Allāh for what He gave us. And we are lucky. Unlucky people who are – they are they are not believer – unbeliever. This people whole life it is no value. Anything they can do, they do; they feel also [at the] end of their life, the nothing valuable for them. We have one doctor he was, his father write many books about this doctor's thing. Whole life he was very careful about this and he write many book. And when he come to age of eighty,
he not giving any value for this. They say – his children they tell him: "We must keep this or must print..." "Eh no, no, no nothing, don't do anything, I don't like this." He know he is, before he was thinking this valuable. But the end he find his whole life it was no value what he do or whatever. Because just for time of what he was earning or from money, from anything, only at that time. No, nothing behind this. In dunyā, whole life empty. Valuable: not... no value of this life. For Ākhīrah also, nothing coming with them. Even they are suffering from every bad thing – from illness from this, from that, but when they are not believer – no value. All this, no reward from Allāh. So this people they must...
Most of people world like this. They are not... They thinking only here and nothing else. For this Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying, "To thinking one hour really about your life, about the life of human, about everything, better than worshipping seventy year or hundred year from worshipping." Because maybe in one hour, if you really concentrate and look, Allāh will give you hidāyah. But when you are not – you are not interesting, you don't have anything, and no valuable for your life. This life for believer, it is very nice.
And there was one murīd, old one, Mawlānā was liking him. He very... maybe he was seventy year but he was very active, very serving, doing everything. He asked, every time, he asked him, "How are you?", he said, "I am very good and this what we are in very nice, very beautiful, cannot be more beautiful than this what we have now." Every time like this.
So our every second, every minute we are in life, it is for us also must be very beautiful, very nice. Especially now we are all blessed – Dhū l- Ḥijjah, ten days of Dhū l-Ḥijjah – second day and this also every second, more and more beautiful than other. Allāh bless us and keep us in this way, Insha Allah. This nice way.

111.FORGET AND FORGIVE Tuesday, 13 July 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.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla created everything beautiful and everything with benefit. Allāh created everything that is useful for people. One of them is to forget.
The word "insān" – human being, comes from the word "nisyān" – to forget. It is a derivative of "forgetting". Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla created everything... Rare people have strong memory, not forgetting.
In general, people forget. Some people forget very often, some a little but all of them forget. And mostly people complain about forgetfulness. But it is something Allāh created for us. It is given for mankind's benefit and in order to show their weakness. It is an attribute given to people by Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. People are able to continue living because of it. All the suffering and bitter moments seem unforgettable to a person in the beginning. They are very tough. He says, "How will I live with this"? And then slowly Allāh covers it with forgetting from day to day, and life goes on. Otherwise, if a person remembered all the suffering and sorrow, he couldn't carry them. He can't carry and then gives up.
Certainly, there are wounds that are unforgettable, but not like in the beginning. Whatever it is, the suffering it causes can't be the same as on the first day. It fades away slowly and will pass. But the other tough times, in hunger, misery, or illness, people forget them when they end. They are over and life goes on. This is by the wisdom of Allāh ‘Azza wa-
Jalla. You may not like some things but they are good for you, says Allah. " ‘Asá an takrahū shay’an wa- huwa khayrun lakum wa-‘asá an tuḥibbū shay’an wa-huwa sharrun lakum" (2:216). You don't like some things and they are good for you. You like some things but they are bad for you. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla addresses mankind in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh- Sha’n. Certainly, one of these things that Allāh gave us is forgetfulness.
There is this and another thing. People who are mu’min forget bad things more often. This is from the beautiful orders of the religion which says to forget the badness done to you and not to forget the goodness. This is nice. Islām is like this. It is tolerant towards all people. Everything in the past is erased when someone reverts from kufr. It is forgotten then. But kuffār are not like this. Kuffār are vengeful, they don't forget. It is the attribute of kuffār. The attribute of the mu’min is to forget badness and to start over when someone becomes good.
May Allāh let us always remember goodness and forget badness, Insha Allah.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He make for us, create as a body, He create for us also, attribute. One of attribute to human being, human being in Arabic named – insān. Insān meaning coming from "nisyān". This is from meaning forgetting, "nisyān" – to forget. Insān coming from "nisyān", this from word "nisyān" meaning whole human being they're forgetting. Some of them they forget little bit, some more, some too much, but all of them they forget.
There is of course, rare one of human being, not forgetting anything and this is also will of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla to make some people like this to make, if they're Muslim, believer, to keep religion through them, through their knowledge to continue this. Because some of them when they read something they are can be saying without any mistake. This what happen when Mongol Genghis Khan or Hulagu coming to Baghdad and he destroyed whole library of Baghdad and killed Khalīfah. New Khalīfah was very sad and said, "Who? Why?" He was very sad. Someone come and tell him, "I can make this whole library. I
know by heart, I can make it again." So he make it in few years, whole this he was knowing. This also from Allāh gift for Ummah. So there is some people like this, but this of course rare, rare as it is no, we say, al- nādir kal-ma‘dūm.
So this is what, for human being, attribute to for be forget. It is good, necessary for people. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla create for us to forget in our life, what we have from beginning our life until young life or old life. Whole in this life, people suffering.
Most of people suffering from something or many thing. So if not forgetting this, it will be their life impossible to live with all this suffering what they have, not forgetting. Like... because when something happen this what happen, sometimes small thing even, your whole day you become like unhappy and you lose your control yourself. You are not eating, drinking. Some of them more. So this one, people, before twenty years or before ten year or before one year even, people they forget and they be continue their life without thinking. What you think only nice thing before from old time. Bad thing most of people they're not thinking, even if they are think, without... they forget most of them.
Only you cannot forget big thing happen, but it is rare not so one. But real it will be very painful, very big thing. You said, "I will never forget. How i can continue my life with this pain, with this, loss?" when we lose many thing. But after little bit, little bit, also forget but of course not forget completely, but also your forget is enough to continue your life without problem. You used to this. But also from this attribute of forgetting, you, make you Allāh day by day to forget this pain, to forget this loss what you... big thing. But other thing, you are never for... remember even many of these thing. Maybe what you remember from when if you are 60 year or 50 year – maybe five or ten big thing make you feel sad or unhappy. But it's also you used for this and you said, "It is from Allāh and it is like this, we cannot do anything." So this is what benefit of forgetting.
And for also some thing in Islām they said, "You must forget what they done for you, against you. Don't remember this. Forget, forget and forgive, no need to remember." But because Islām religion of mercy, also once somebody leave their old life and beginning for Islām, old life, all what they done, all of them this finish, forget. Like many of ṣaḥābah, they was before Islām, enemy and they killed too much, too many ṣaḥābah. Even these people they forgive and they forget this. This is Islām and this is how Muslim they must be. No... Kin (grudge). No grudge.
But other, who are, they have not believer, they have this grudge and they not forget at all. Even they said, "After hundred year even, we'll be take revenge from our ancestor. From thousand years ago, we also we get revenge." So this is what nonbelievers... But Muslim they are forget and they forgive.
This is we ask Allāh to forgive us and to make us to forgive people, Insha Allah.

112.EVERYONE THINKS HE KNOWS BEST Wednesday, 14 July 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 ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says that one of the signs of the end of times, "I‘jāba kulli dhī ra’yin bi-ra’yih," is that everyone likes his own idea. Everyone likes his own opinion and dislikes that of everyone else. Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam points at this as a sign of the end of times and to signal Judgement Day is near.
And what does it mean to like your own opinion? There is this thing called democracy now. Everyone speaks his mind. Everyone likes himself and dislikes others. It is fine for worldly matters. Everyone may like his own ideas and walk on his own path. Some people succeed and others fail. Some are good and some are bad. People can get their punishment in this world. But they carry the punishment of these worldly matters here. And if they take nothing to Ākhirah, still they can live in this world either in suffering or in goodness.
But you cannot have opinions for the matters of Ākhirah. That has already been decided. You cannot stand up and say, "I don't like this. I prefer it a different way." Even if you do, it won't be useful to you or to others. There will be fitnah. And you will be punished both here and hereafter for this. It will be without benefit.
Don't start useless things. Even if your ego wants such things, stay away from them. Because nowadays the whole world thinks they can do
something based on their opinions. "I will say my opinion..." You can say as much as you like, you can't change this world. Those who control the world will play with you like a toy. You can't take anything. You just keep saying it in your place. If you say it for your Ākhirah, it will destroy your Ākhirah too. You can say your opinion. But you must accept the Book, the sunnah, everything accepted in the way of Allāh and of ṭarīqah. You can't go beyond that. If you want to do something like learning or teaching, you should know this very well. You must teach people the truth, the way it comes from our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.
Some people write books and this and that. You must show those books to competent people and ask if there are mistakes in it. You should break your ego and show it to those who know. If there is a mistake, you will be punished for that mistake. Whoever reads your book and makes a mistake, it will be written for you too. One person, two people – all of them.
Therefore, it's not an accomplishment to publish a book because of the desire of your ego. An accomplishment is to make something useful. And useful is what is right. What is not right is without benefit.
May Allāh not separate us from the right way, Insha Allah.
Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying for end of time – we are living in this end of time – to everyone he be happy and proud with his idea for what he thinking.
This is, Bismi Llāhi... "I‘jāba kulli dhī ra’yin bi-ra’yih," to be happy and to proud think, he think it is the best idea for whole mankind.
This not one [person] thinking this. Millions, billions they thinking this. You can imagine how it is funny thing this what they said. They're laughing on these people, they say democracy. Democracy? This is democracy – everyone must be happy with his idea. He must give his idea and to be happy with this, not accept another one.
"Everyone they have idea maybe, but my idea it is the best." This one, this no-mind people, they said they thought they have good idea, "No, no, I am have this very good idea can save whole world," they said. Everyone they saying this.
This is Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying and describing this time which before, old time, it was not like this. No nobody can say "I have this idea." Maybe some people can be like this but now everybody they are saying this. This for dunyā can be. Everybody saying this for they not like how other people they are ruling, or how other people building, or how other people doing business. Everything you can be you thought, you can thought it is your idea the best for this. No problem for this.
But also this democracy it is big lie, cheating people. Only they said you can do this and everything but when real coming to appoint people for power, ruling countries, they have a special people. You cannot go out of these people. This is must be everybody knowing this.
But this is for dunyā – it is not important. They can do anything, they can like... any idea, anything they can do. But for who... Not good this – to be proud for his idea and to think... to give his thought for people to for religion thing.
Religion thing, you cannot think, you cannot say, "My idea best." If your idea according to Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, Sunnah and Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n, okay. And [according to] for madhhab and ṭarīqah, this is okay. You can continue. But if you think, "This not good. I will do better." This is not good idea at all. Because for dunyā, for this world, first idea to think, "I can do anything better for these people," good but for religion... Maybe in dunyā you can be succeed or not succeed. You... Many people they have idea, billions of people they have idea. Maybe thousand, or ten thousand, or hundred thousand be succeed. Okay. But other it will be no succeed but they continue. No problem. But for thinking for religion, for Islām, "I can, I have idea better. I can write book and it will be the most succeed. People, they'll be
happy with me and I will be happy for this." If it is according for way of Prophet thinking, for mashāyikh, for ṣaḥābah - it will be good. But if not, it is you have problem because everyone read your book, and after they be in wrong, you will be asked for this, for each one you do this. For this, when you have something, some idea like this, you must ask people who are they have experience, they have knowledge for this.
Because many people from the, listening from here, there and they try to make book. And when somebody coming and saying for them, "This is not right," they become very angry, not accept. These people, they don't have any good think, good idea, meaning. Good idea to be accept truth, accept... but knowledge people saying to correct what is wrong and to leave right one in your book or in your... anything you do.
This is very important because when some people they... nobody without wrong. Everybody, we are human being, every time we can make mistake, make wrong thing. So you must accept naṣīḥah, advice, and ask what is right, what is not right. When you know exactly like this you can... you can continue.
Because many times, with good intention, people they write book, but after this they harm too much – ṭarīqah, and mashāyikh, and the most harmful thing, for people they intend to be in this way, way of ṭarīqah, way of sharī‘ah, in way of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, but these people they said, "Look what these people they write their book – whole wrong thing, whole everything mistake. They mix up, up down. Better for you to run away from these people."
This is what happened many time and this is what people thought they were doing good but really they be reason for people to not be in this blessed way, good way, way of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, the purest way, ṭarīqah Naqshbandiyyah. Allāh keep us away from our ego desire and accept truth even for ourself.
Don't be say, "I not doing mistake." Everybody can do mistake. Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, "Kullu banī Ādama khaṭṭā’un wa-khayru
l-khaṭṭāīna t-tawwābun." Aw kamā qāl ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Every son of Ādam or daughter of Ādam they are, they make mistake. Nobody not make mistake. Only of course prophets this is of course very rare. For whole common thing, everybody make mistake.
Allāh, Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam and the best one who repent and ask for forgiveness from Allāh. Allāh forgive us.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
113.THE WAZĪFAH FOR YAWMU ‘ARAFAH Saturday, 17 July 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.
Allāh is giving the virtues of this holy month. They are given as favours to us. Today is the seventh of this holy month and tomorrow is the eighth. They call it Yawmu t-Tarwiyah. It is good to fast for nine days but fasting on the eighth and ninth is also blessed and accepted. If you can't fast for two days, fasting on the ninth, on Yawmu ‘Arafah is certainly a beautiful gift from Allāh to every Muslim. We shouldn't miss it.
They say opportunities are in dunyā. This world is a place of opportunity. Indeed, it is a place of opportunities. Whoever has got a chance for Ākhirah has got a real chance. And for dunyā, they say this world is a place of opportunities. Most people can't take a share from dunyā. They can't have it as they want. Very few have it. And they can have it either through suffering, or by the kindness of Allāh. But for Ākhirah, opportunities are open for everyone. By the wisdom of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, there are so rich people in this world and there are so poor people and those in the middle. They are like this for dunyā. But for Ākhirah, Allāh gave this chance to everyone. Whoever misses it, will regret it.
You struggle for this world. Many people come and say, "Our work was going to take off but is bad now. " What can we do? It's the will of Allāh. Allāh is not giving, so you can't do it. Because, as we said, this world has rich, poor, and middle people. But for Ākhirah, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla
opened it equally for everyone. Everyone can take and use a lot from those favours. No one will be told not to take. They are told to take but people are not taking. Why aren't you taking? They say, "I can't do it." They do everything but cannot perform this worship and good deeds. These are holy days given to us by the kindness of Allāh.
Fasting tomorrow, on Yawmu t-Tarwiyah has very big virtues. We are telling from today, for sometimes it reaches our brothers and those who listen, very late. Who says it is too hot this year and he can't fast should certainly fast on the ninth. The more difficult it is, the more favours from Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. A reward for easy things is different than for hard things, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla rewards differently. Worship performed on Yawmu 'Arafah is more acceptable.
We should recite 1,000 Ikhlāṣ Sharīf especially for this day. As we said, until this news reaches you, sometimes our people deliver it too late, when it is over. Therefore, we should say from now. On Yawmu 'Arafah: 1,000 Ikhlāṣ Sharīf, 1,000 Astaghfiru Llāh, 1,000 Lā ilāha illā Llāh. Recite ṣalawāt as much as you want.
May Allāh make it a means for goodness for many more coming years, Insha Allah. May we be protected from these troubles. May Allāh protect us from these ongoing games. May protect from the games of shayṭān. They started a war till the end. May Allāh Allāh protect all of us from it. May He give the safety of īmān. May we be with Allāh, Insha Allah.
We are speaking also for this blessed month, month of Dhū l-Ḥijjah. Tomorrow it will be eight of Dhū l-Ḥijjah. And it is very blessed day before ‘Arafāt, nine of Dhū l-Ḥijjah. The most blessed one [is] nine of Dhū l-Ḥijjah. But all these nine days very blessed. Who fast in these days, as he fast one year. But the most precious eight and nine. This is from Allāh gift for Ummah, Ummat Sayyidunā Muḥammad ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. And it is open for everybody can take as much they like.
We are living in life which it is... For living in this life, many people they struggle to be get good job, good house, good car, and everything they want to get the best one. But of course this is life, Allāh create people levels for to live in this dunyā, this world. Not whole of them it will be rich. Like what this Communism they try, hundred year or ninety-eight years, they try to make people they said, "No difference between people. All we live same level of standard of life." This is ridiculous because Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He don’t want this. He make people [in] levels. Some of them higher in his job, some of them lower. Some of them higher in his knowledge, some of them not so, don't have knowledge. It is like this.
Not like Communism they make even. When they make this – they must be all same level – they was not succeed. Even in Communism there was many level for them, like politburo or other. Many, many they have also level in Communism. So it is anywhere in world, everybody has level, has something to get. But for Ākhirah not like this. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He open for everybody they can be, if they be making worshipping and doing. It is open for everybody. Everybody can be take as much they like. But nobody, many few people they are interesting about Ākhirah. For dunyā they struggle, struggle but what they Allāh give them naṣīb, qismat, they are taking this. But for Ākhirah it is open. As much you can take, take.
And we are in this blessed day which it is too much blessed barakah and reward. You can take as much you can take. For this we saying tomorrow, Insha Allah, we fast and after tomorrow. But now it is some people they said, "It is very hot. We cannot fast." Don't miss nine of Dhū l-Ḥijjah Yawmu ‘Arafah, the most blessed day – Yawmu ‘Arafah. And this day you make tasbīḥāt, dhikr. Especially there is thousand time Sūrah Ikhlāṣ, some thousand time "astaghfiru Llāh", thousand time, "lā ilāha illā Llāh Muḥammadur Rasūlu Llāh ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam." Don't miss this.
We are saying from now because sometimes it become late this information. So, Insha Allah, don't miss this. It is gift from Allāh for us,
for Ummat Muḥammad. And Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He is happy when you accept His gift and do what He want. He will be give you from His endless treasure for your soul and for your body also, Insha Allah. Insha Allah, Allāh keep us from this time of difficult time with worshipping, with doing this. Allāh keep us safe from every badness, Insha Allah.
It is our belief and must be belief for human being because they are by their hand, they are touching this now, these days. Every time they said, "We succeed to finish this illness," [it is] coming from other side. They are not asking help from Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. They try to do by themself. Every time they do without help of Allāh, nothing happen.
And we are, Insha Allah, asking from Allāh to help us and to protect us from this bad thing, illness or another kind of bad thing. From with this blessed day, Allāh accept our du‘ā’ and keep us safe, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.
114.MERCY IS FOR THE MERCIFUL Sunday, 18 July 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 religion of Islām is the religion of mercy. "Man lā yarḥam lā yurḥam," says our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Whoever is not merciful – there is no mercy for him. Mercy is from Allāh. Those who don't show mercy to people and call themselves Muslims, who oppress other Muslims, Allāh doesn't show mercy to them. Because oppression is not the glory of Allāh. It is not the glory of Islām.
Islām is the religion of mercy, it always does goodness and shows goodness to people. "Wa- f‘alū l-khayra la‘allakum tufliḥūn" (22:77). Do goodness. When you do goodness, you'll be in happiness. When you are merciful... All the orders of Allāh say to show mercy to people. Whoever is not merciful shouldn't say he is Muslim or mention it as if it were an order of Islām. The order of Islām is to be merciful. Oppression is not from the orders of Islām.
There are many groups now, they say they are Muslim and make oppression. And their oppression is against other Muslims. They also say... They make fitnah. They are soldiers of shayṭān. They are with shayṭān and not together with Allāh. They are not ḥizbu Llāh (party of Allāh). All of them are ḥizbu sh-shayṭān (party of shayṭān). There is a lot of ḥizbu sh-shayṭān who claim to be Muslim and oppress Muslims. All of them are ḥizbu sh-shayṭān. You shouldn't pay attention to them. And there are many such groups. People think they are something important and try to help them and they are only together with shayṭān. Who is
together with shayṭān, everyone who is against Islām, in short, is from the people of shayṭān. Nothing else. Don't be cheated.
The kāfir will never help you. If they are helping, then there is some treachery or personal interest behind it. When there is a big interest, they force themselves to comply with you until they get what they want. Therefore, whoever is with them, they will end up just like them. Their ends won't be good. May Allāh protect us. For the honor of these holy days, may Allāh protect people from their oppression. We hear that it is rising again. Their oppression has shown up again. They make fatwás as they like to oppress Muslims. And they are attacking people's property, honour, everything.
May Allāh protect us. May Allāh bring victory to Islām. May their evil turn back on them. Allāh is Powerful over everything. Therefore, don't be afraid.
Tomorrow is Yawmu 'Arafah, Insha Allah. These are holy days now. People who are Muslim show respect to these months. But those people don't respect anything. They respect neither Allāh, nor our Holy Prophet, neither days, nor nights. They don't honour anything. As we said, may Allāh give them disappointment and defeat, Insha Allah.
Tomorrow is Yawmu 'Arafah. It is a holy day and has its duties. One of the duties, Insha Allah, is to make takbīr after the farḍ of fajr prayer. Takbīr is made until ‘aṣr prayer on the fourth day of ‘Īd. May Allāh bless it, Insha Allah. May it be good.
Islām religion – religion of Islām, it is only for mercy, mercy for people, nothing else. Who, Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying, "This is mercy. Who will not be mercy for people, Allāh will be not mercy for him." Mercy for poor people, for normal – all human being to be mercy – it is our religion order. Don't oppress anyone, don't kill anyone, don't steal, don't do bad thing for people. All this, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla order in Qur’ān and to to be mercy for people. Our... But when people not mercy for other people, this people, "Man lā yarḥam lā yurḥam." "Who
not be mercy for people, He will be not be mercy for him." Mercy for op
