128.DEPEND ON ALLĀH AND GO ON Thursday, 5 August 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... Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Fa-’idhā ‘azamta fa-tawakkal ‘alá Llāh" (3:159). Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying, if you intend for something, depend on Allāh and go on. Don't look if it is good – of course, before, you must look if it is good. You must see and after when you know it is khayr – good, don't listen to people. Because if you listen to people, you are – you will be looking, "Can I do this or not?" "Okay, one step front, one step behind." After, they will be nothing happen for you. Important thing – you go on. Don't look what people they will say, what... If you know you are right, you doing this for sake of Allāh. Allah will help you and you will be succeed.

If you say, looking for people, "Oh, don't do this. This is once one man, he done this and he not succeed." Other one, "Oh, nobody want this." Other one said, "No." Especially – this for normal people – for other people who have Jamā‘ah or they are leader, it is more important for them to not listen to... After they look and decide to do something, no need to more discussion for people. You go on.

Because nowadays, also there is this terrible thing, everybody look social media – many name for this, this name, this, that name. The people, they said for you "like this", other say, "for this". If you listen for them, you will not be succeed at all and nobody will be happy with you. Because everybody, they has opinion. You must... If you depend on Allāh, and your knowing your opinion good, don't listen – go ahead. Do

what Allāh give for you and because Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla not giving for everybody something good inspiration. If you depend on Allāh, Allāh give you good inspiration and it will be good for you and for other also. This is our days. Before also, but nowadays, more people they interfere in something they are not responsible to interfere or to do this. Nobody put you, make you to be look after this. This people only for disappoint people and to make every good thing to not happen. This is what their business – job. This days a real leader or real good people, no need to look for this nonsense thing. If you... Turkish they said, "If you catch, catch bird with your mouth, they will be not happy with you." So, don't look for them. Only look for what Allāh like and do what Allāh like. Not do what people like.

Today we make it from English, we begin with English. Insha Allah, now we speak Turkish.

Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. "Fa-’idhā ‘azamta fa- tawakkal ‘alá Llāh" (3:159). If you decided to start a job, trust in Allāh and start it. If it is for the sake of Allāh, take a good look at the job itself. If it is a means to goodness, do not doubt at all. To doubt is not good. When you doubt, your work will fail or not go at all. Therefore, you should deal with whatever people say only before you start your work. When you make a decision, don't look back. Look ahead and start the job. It will be good. Start by trusting in Allāh, not depending on yourself. You must depend on Allāh but first you work. If someone starts a useless job without checking, only depending on Allāh, that can be but he has to accept the consequences. It can be a test for you. But if you want to be successful, you must do what is required for it. You must prepare yourself. You must make your research. You must make your calculations. Many people start work without making calculations but only by depending on Allāh. You must depend on Allāh ‘Azza wa- Jalla, of course. But He gave you mind and understanding as well. If you don't use them, you don't trust in Allāh completely. When you fail and don't get upset, you truly trust in Allāh. But when you fail and say, "I trusted in Allāh and did this job but did not succeed," then it is your fault. You didn't make your preparations. You didn't really depend on

Allāh then. Who trusts in Allāh does everything, and then starts the work.

Also you shouldn't look at what others are saying and doing, especially those who are starting a job as leaders. If there are people working for them, responsible for family or a company, even if it is a government, and someone is the chairman, he should trust in Allāh and start the work by saying, "There is goodness in it. We are doing it as a service for Allāh." He should consult with professionals. It is a trend not to ask professionals but to ask social media, as they have found that to be the easiest solution. It is a community of worthless, mindless people. They get opinions from them – "This one liked us, that one didn't." There was a poet who said, "Wa-idhā atatka ma-dhammatī min nāqiṣin fa-dhālika l-kamālu bi-dhātihi." "If a low, worthless person tells me a bad word, that is an honour for me. If someone who swears at me is a shameless, worthless, ignorant man, that's an honour for me." This is it.

Therefore, don't listen to words of unimportant people who say you can't succeed in anything. As long as you listen to what Allāh says, and follow the orders of Allāh, let them speak and don't worry. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is with you. Allāh protects and guards good people. Let the whole world be against you, it is not important. It is important to do the duty Allāh gave you for the pleasure of Allāh and to attain the pleasure of Allāh. Who wins the pleasure of Allāh wins everything. May Allāh give it to all of us, Insha Allah. People who are not ashamed in front of anyone, blame you for praying, blame you for fasting, blame you for doing goodness, blame you for not drinking alcohol. It is very good to be blamed for these things. May Allāh increase such blame for us. These are not causes for blame. As we said, to not keep company with people, who find such things blameworthy and to keep your distance from them, is an honour. May Allāh make this honour last for us, Insha Allah. Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

129.THE CALENDAR OF THE PROPHET Friday, 6 August 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.

This month is the month of Dhū l-Ḥijjah. It is coming to its end. In shā’a Llāh, in a couple of days, a new month, Muḥarram, starts. A new Hijrī year will start, in shā’a Llāh. There are holy months and holy days in this year, in the Hijrī year. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla made this calendar as a favour to our Holy Prophet Holy nights and holy days, ḥajj, fasting, zakāh – all of them come according to this calendar. Therefore, to honour it, is useful for Muslims.

This month of Muḥarram is the last of the forbidden months. The first month is Rajab, then come Dhū l-Qa‘dah, Dhū l-Ḥijjah and Muḥarram. Four months. Three months are in a row and one is separate. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla made them this way. The last of these months is also blessed, it is a holy month. There is the day of ‘Āshūrā’ in it. Whoever honours that day, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla gives barakah to him. Whoever fasts it, there are big favours and thawāb for him. Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is saying, someone who fasts for a day in Muḥarram is rewarded as if he fasts for thirty days. It is the beginning of our new year and the end of the previous year. It is not similar to any other year.

These are our blessed important days and important matters. It is the holy year of Allāh which shows all times for worship. We should show respect to this year. We should pray for it to be good. May we see its goodness and barakah, Insha Allah.

It is the Hijrī year. Why Hijrī? Because the Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam made the time he migrated from Makkah to Madīnah the beginning of the year. It will be the Hijrī calendar until Qiyāmah. That hijrah, migration, was the order in old times. It had big thawāb, our Holy Prophet's, ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, migration from Makkah to Madīnah. Everyone had to migrate. But of course, some could not do it because they had obligations. But those who could have migrated and didn't, are responsible for it. Therefore in order for hijrah to be barakah for people until Qiyāmah, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla saw this name appropriate and nice for our Holy Prophet's, ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, calendar.

May Allāh make this year the year of Islām, the year of the destruction of kufr, Insha Allah. Because the coming of Mahdī ‘alayhi s-salām is estimated according to these years. Insha Allah, the time is very close anyway. We hope that he (as) comes this year, Insha Allah. Don't lose hope. "Lā taqnaṭū" (39:53), says Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Whatever happens, don't lose hope. As we are with Allāh, even if we are in the toughest times, believers should not lose hope. Allāh is with us. As long as we are with Allāh, no trouble will be important, Insha Allah. May Allāh make this year good and blessed.

If it was another new year, they would write a thousand things here and there decorating the walls and places. Leave remembering, they don't even think of this new year. Who doesn't think of it is in loss. Who doesn't show respect is in loss. Thanks to Allāh, that year and this year cannot be compared. Everything bad is in the mīladī year (Gregorian year). Actually, the name "mīladī" comes from the birth of ‘Īsá ‘alayhi s- salām, but it is not actually related to it at all.

Shukr to Allāh that it is not related. They do all kinds of shameless things on that day and call it the birthday of the prophet (Jesus). Allāh has messed with their minds. They celebrate it on another day but the way they do it makes shayṭāns happy.

Shukr to Allāh, this is our year, beginning of the year which is

remembered by good people, by pious servants, shukr to Allāh

Alḥamdulilah, we are in end of the year, the our Islāmic, Hijrī we call it. This year, it is for everything for Muslim religion – very important. There is time, there is day, and the months for worshipping. We cannot do, change it with other months. This time, it must be like this. Sometime coming before, after this day for another calendar. But for Islāmic calendar, after maybe two or three days, it will be New Year – Islāmic new year. There is New Year – Islāmic celebration.

Maybe if this rock-head people, who not understand anything from Islām, they can say this is "bid‘ah" and "shirk". No, not shirk because Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, He grant this for calendar for His Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. This is special for our Prophet Muḥammad ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, for his nation to follow this calendar and do their worshipping – like fasting, giving charity, zakāh, and for ḥajj, for ‘Īd, for slaughter, for ‘Āshūrā’, for other thing, many, for Mawlidu n- Nabīy ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam – all this we celebrate in this calendar. They try to change this but, alḥamdulilah, they couldn't. They try to make celebrate for Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam in 20th of April because Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam... And they was doing this many year. But after, alḥamdulilah, they, people, they not like this and they leave it.

To celebrate, Mawlānā say, he was also not happy with this. Celebrate, you must celebrate only in Rabī‘u l-Awwal – 12th Rabī‘u l-Awwal you celebrate this but not for other calendar. Maybe you know which day with this, no problem. Best not celebrate to leave real day and celebrate another day. Is it not good. Because Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, He grant this for Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.

And in Qur’ān, many place you say, you must follow this days, that day and special for this months of ḥarām – Al-Ashhuru l-Ḥurum. When? Four months. First one, Rajab. It is alone after because there is Sha‘bān, Ramadān, Shawwāl, three months. After [these] three months, three months from ḥarām months: Dhū l-Qa‘dah, Dhū l-Ḥijjah, Muḥarram.

Now we finish nearly Dhū l-Ḥijjah and we will begin, Insha Allah, for Muḥarram, which it is a new year for Islāmic calendar, for Prophet's ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam calendar this. So, we are, we must be happy. We must be ask for Allāh for forgive us for what in last year it was happen for us or what we done. And we ask good thing for this new year, especially to be strong īmān and protected from fitnah of this time, from fitnah of especially our ego because ego is weak and when seeing something from difficult, they make you to be weak.

For this we are asking Allāh to protect us from this, all of this. And especially from shayṭān's whispering and every bad thing. Special this days, many people, they look [like] ṣūratu l-ḥaqq (image of truth) – they look like right and they advise you good thing and they are... No. They are in reality, they have another thing in their, inside them, themself. This for enemy of religion, enemy of Islām, they are. You cannot trust them. Allāh protect us from them and not to be fall under their trap. They are – this days really, really it is the end of time.

Insha Allah, we hope this year Mahdī ‘alayhi s-salām come and to save people, to save humanity, Insha Allah. Because also he (as) is in following this calendar, not another calendar.

And there is... We cannot compare with this calendar and another calendar, which it is beginning of this year – only few people remembering. Few people – "Oh, what new year? For which new year?" Islāmic new year. "When it is?" They... "Oh, I thought it is after five months." No. Even Muslim, they not knowing. But who know, they are happy with this new year, are respecting and asking bless. Because also this month, it is very important, very blessed month. And there is very blessed day, ‘Āshūrā’ day, in this month, which it is blessed from Allāh for mu’min, for Muslim, and barakah also. And to fast one day in Muḥarram, Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying, as fasting one month, ya‘nī thirty days.

And this is what you cannot compare with this New Year, other New Year. When it will happen, before two months they are beginning to put

everywhere: "A New Year, a New Year. It will come, it will come." And people preparing for this. And what happen in this day? They doing the bad, very dirty thing, very bad thing. Most of people, they saying celebrate – celebrating but not celebrating. They only make themself dirty and make the world dirty.

And ḥāshā (far be it), cannot be this day for birthday of prophet Sayyidunā ‘Īsá. Alḥamdulilah, normally birthday of Sayyidunā ‘Īsá, it is not that day, 24 December – but they said this but normally it is other day. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, with His wisdom, He make this day only for this people to do what can every sin, what not anything for Prophet ‘Īsá ‘alayhi s- salām. Alḥamdulilah, who celebrate this calendar of Muslim and celebrate for calendar of non-Muslim, it is completely opposite. When you celebrate this, you get blessed and when you celebrate other one and doing bad, you be cursed. This is difference between two of them.

Allāh keep us safe, Allāh bless us and give this – from this barakah of this year, keep us safe from, specially from this big trap [that] all world falling in it.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

130.DO NOT LOSE HOPE Monday, 9 August 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.

May this day be blessed and good. Insha Allah this year will start well and end well with victory to Islam. May this Kufr be defeated insha’Allah. Kufr has become so widespread everywhere. However, the judgment is from Allah. No one can go against the judgment of Allah.

Our Holy Prophet left Mecca in the worst time and in the worst condition and spread the light all over the world. They thought that they would kill our Holy Prophet and end this work. But they were cleverer than these people now. There was only one man that they thought they would kill, whereas as long as Allah protects someone, no one can go against him.

Nowadays, they are trying to finish Muslims all over the world. With the permission of Allah, the religion of Allah will not be finished. It will be victorious eventually. Whoever trusts in Allah and wants to help Allah, Allah will help him too.

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem: ‘And Allah will surely help those who help Him.’ (Qur’ān 22:40). Those who are on the way of Allah and want to declare the word of Allah, Allah will help them. The help of Allah will be with them, says Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla.

Muslims should not look at the current situation and lose hope. We are divided, fighting with each other unable to get along well. Wherever

there are Muslims, there is Fitnah. However, Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla says not to fall into hopelessness.

Our Holy Prophet is the biggest example for us. All by himself, he didn’t fall under that Kufr and kept on going strong. He migrated from his beloved land. Our Holy Prophet loved Mecca. And migration was not an easy thing. But our Holy Prophet went through all hardships for the pleasure of Allah. And Allah helped him. He entered Ka’bah, Mecca, the place where he was born with victory. And Allah gave the whole world, the whole universe to our Holy Prophet.

Of course, this situation is upsetting for mankind. So much Kufr and objection. Mankind is probably living through the worst time since ‘Adam ‘alayhi s-salam. All kinds of shamelessness, all kinds of Kufr, all kinds of objection, going against Allah and denying Allah; anything you can think of – they are getting worse each day now in the end of times. But they are not important. All of them are a test. Mankind should not lose hope.

‘Do not despair of the mercy of Allah’. (Qur’ān 39:53).

It is an order - do not fall into hopelessness. Do not lose hope in the mercy of Allah. Allah is certainly with Muslims and Mu’mins.

May this be a good year. We entered it with worship insha’Allah. And whoever completes it with worship will be with blessings, safety and health and will be protected from this strange illness they brought up. Their evil will return to them.

May the evil reach the evil ones and the good reach the good ones Insha Allah.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

131.THE BEST OF CREATORS Wednesday, 11 August 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 says: ‘They will change the creation of Allah.’ (Qur’ān 04:119).

They want to change things created by Allah. It has been so since old times, and it has reached its peak now. The things that are done are in order to change mankind and other creatures of Allah. They think that they will make it better by changing. But they want to change not to do goodness but to do evil.

As long as there is no permission from Allah, they cannot change anything. They think that they are succeeding in the beginning, whereas what they are doing is not good but bad.

Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is ‘The Best of Creators’. He is the most perfect Creator. He created everything perfect. He made measurements for everything. If you interfere in that, you won’t do any good, you will do only bad. It will be such a badness that cannot be reversed. If you realize that you made a mistake and want to undo it, that mistake is not reversible. You cannot undo it. It will have bad results, and no goodness at all.

Therefore, when there is no permission from Allah, they cannot do anything. They say, “We created this. We created that”. It happens with the permission of Allah And why does it happen? Because they want to

change creatures of Allah, and as a punishment for them, Allah may let them change. However, it will turn out as a disaster eventually.

All the current events in the world are happening because of people who think they are something important and go against Allah.

Otherwise, the whole world is enough for people, and everything happens. Whatever happened, it happened by the will of Allah. People who accept this will be in comfort. Those who don’t accept it say that it is for humanity, for their ego and for a benefit. They do nothing but evil to humanity.

They are trying to turn people into their slaves. Some people do become slaves. We see that they sacrifice themselves for dunyā, and there is nothing they do for ākhirah. If they do as much for ākhirah as they do for dunyā, they will certainly win. They are doing everything for dunyā, thus losing both dunyā and ākhirah.

May Allah help us. As Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla put us in this time, we depend on Allah and ask for help from Him Insha Allah. May Allah protect us from the evil of the bad ones.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

132.THIS DISASTER IS THE RESULT Thursday, 12 August 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.

We are living in holy days. These days are when Prophets and Awliya’ received their trusts. The holy day of ‘Ashurah is on the 10th of Muharram. These are blessed days. They used to fast during this month before Ramadan. When Ramadan became Fard, this became a Sunnah. But what’s important is that the Barakah of these days is continuous. Insha’Allah they will be the means to end these troubles because Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla gave Barakah to these days both spiritually and physically. There is always wisdom in them. Allah always wants goodness to people. People do evil to themselves on their own.

If you turn on the TV, news everywhere shows that the whole world is burning these days. Why is it burning? How did it happen? People have asked for evil to themselves. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla gives time to people for them to come to their senses. But people keep on their wildness.

They forbade keeping goats years ago. Who forbade it? Europe, the West, the sinking civilization. It is forbidden in their countries too.

We have been to Spain. People told us that flocks were forbidden because they eat and finish the forest. They were happy to think that they saved the forests. And what goats eat in a thousand years, wildfires are burning in a couple of days. They left poor people jobless and made the animals perish without leaving anything to them. And then they ask for planes and helicopters. Whereas, animals were eating those now-

burnt pieces and there was profit for poor people. And there was Rizq for thousands, ten thousand, hundred thousand people. They prevented all of that.

When you go against the work of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla - Allah made the balance. And people are causing harm to themselves. As we said, our foolish people say, “Whatever Europe tells us, we should do it. They know what is right. We are idiots, they are intelligent. Goats are not good, don’t keep them”. Whereas, a goat is a blessed animal. It is the animal our Holy Prophet loved.

Goats were the main source of living for all Islamic armies, the Ottomans and Seljuks. They had strategic importance and power. When they took them away, they took away the Barakah as well. And now there is a disaster. It is not good to interfere in the work of Allah. They should think, “We are forbidding this. What will be the result?” This disaster is the result.

Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla created everything in balance. Whoever loses the balance is mankind. Other creatures and animals have their duties, and they are doing it. When you don’t interfere, the whole world is in sustainable life. But people of shaytan break this balance and want to keep the balance of people in their hands. What can you do? What happened has happened. It will hardly be fixed now because there was a working system. And when you break this system, how can you bring it back? It is easy to destroy and hard to fix.

May Allah help us. May Allah protect the country, animals, people and all creatures. We should ask for forgiveness. We made a mistake, we repent and ask for forgiveness. May Allah remove this trouble. Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

133.THE TRICKS OF SHAYTAN ARE WEAK Friday, 13 August 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 in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Shān: ‘Indeed, the plot of Satan has ever been weak.’ (Qur’ān 04:76).

The tricks of shaytan are weak. Shaytan struggles and tries, and thinks that he made people go to hell. People do all kinds of evil. But when they repent and ask for forgiveness, all the tricks of shaytan become useless. They become worthless. The sins are erased and Thawab is written. This is good tidings from our Holy Prophet to us. Shaytan has no power with permission of Allah.

Therefore, mankind should make Shukr to Allah, for He did not make the tricks of shaytan powerful.

The whole world is in Fitnah and badness now. They are powerless in front of the will of Allah. Certainly, they will be gone. Those who are with Allah will win. And those against them with shaytan will be swept away. Don’t be with shaytan. Be with Allah. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla gave you all kinds of favors, and there will be all kinds of beauties in ākhirah. Don’t be cheated by the tricks of shaytan. His tricks are worthless and useless. They are harmful. In order not to be harmed, stay away from shaytan. Don’t expect help from him.

When people turn away from Allah, they think that shaytan is powerful. They fear him and try to be together with him. Whereas, he has no power. He will be swept away. Those who are with him will be in loss and swept away too. May we be with Allah Insha Allah.

We should perform more worship and make more Shukr to Allah during these holy days. May Allah bless them.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

134.ALLAH CREATED US FOR WORSHIP Saturday, 14 August 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 says that whoever keeps his religion in the end of times is as if he is holding onto a piece of burning coal. It is hard to keep the religion. When you hold onto it, your hands get burned. When you let go, you lose the religion. This time is a difficult time.

However much we can do, we should not leave it. We should perform every Sunnah, every Wajib and Fard that we can. If we say, “It is hard, we can’t do it” and leave them, that is wrong. People do even harder things. But when it comes to worship, they say that they cannot do it. They do much more difficult things than worship and for useless purposes. Not for earning a living but for entertaining their ego, for going out. The things they do are much more difficult than worship. But when it comes to worship, they leave it. They say it is hard or that they don’t have time. They have time for everything except for worship.

It is something that any normal person should keep. It is the most important thing in life. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla created us for worship, not for other things. Not in order to become a chief or a manager. Allah will not ask you why you didn’t become a chief. Allah will ask you why you didn’t perform your worship. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla says,

‘And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.’ (Qur’ān 51:56).

The only duty of people and jinns is to worship. When you are with Allah, to earn a living is worship, to have a halal marriage is worship, to look after the children is worship and to raise them well is worship. When it is for the pleasure of Allah, everything is worship. But when you leave your worship because it is difficult, nothing you do is counted as worship. Everything is counted to your ego.

Therefore, it is hard. But the harder it is, the more valuable it gets, the more significant it is. The worship people perform in this time is more valuable. If it is harder than it was before in old times, there is more Thawab for it. There are many rewards for it. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla gave a big opportunity to people. With difficulty, there is more profit as well.

May Allah make our worship continuous.

Ahlu t-Tariqah, the people of Tariqah should be more careful. Others sometimes don’t know Shari’ah. Or if they know, they don’t show any importance to it. We should pay attention as much as we can. We should pay attention to it very much.

May Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla not separate us from the right way. May He give us all love for this way and love for worship.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

135.WEALTH BELONGS TO ALLAH Sunday, 15 August 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, (Qur’ān 03:196-197). Allah says: ‘Be not deceived by the [uninhibited] movement of the disbelievers throughout the land {196} [It is but] a small enjoyment {197}.’

Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is saying, “Do not pay attention to the abundance in countries and in the world.” The condition of this world is that the dunyā is just a little sustenance or a little living.

This is to people and to governments because people get hopeless. They look and see evil everywhere. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla says not to pay attention and not to be afraid of that. They are small things. People see them as big, whereas they are unimportant things. They may seem strong as they like, they may seem to be holding everything in their hands; they are, small things.

Believers should trust in Allah. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is with them. Their power and ruling, everything is little in the sight of Allah. They have no power. When there is no ‘iman, mankind may fear that the whole world is in their hands. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla says, “Don’t be afraid”.

Our Holy Prophet informed us about it: “This Fitnah will happen and eventually Islam will have the victory, and Muslims will be the winners. Do not be hopeless”. This is great good tidings for Muslims. Because we

look everywhere, shaytan and his followers have taken over everything and are oppressing people to be with them, to follow their way. May we never follow them Insha Allah. Their way has a bad end. Its beginning is bad and its end is bad. May we never be with them Insha Allah.

Do not desire their wealth and property. All of them are only little. Wealth belongs to Allah. Allah gives to whomever He wants and cuts off to whomever He wants. Everything is in His hands, not in anyone else’s.

May Allah protect people and Muslims. May He give them guidance. But people have left humanity. They have become worse than animals. May Allah help us. Whatever our Holy Prophet said is appearing one by one. Therefore, hold on firmly and don’t be afraid. Don’t be frightened of the existence and greatness of the enemy. Whoever fears has weakness in ‘iman.

May Allah protect us.

Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

136.OBEY THE PEOPLE OF AUTHORITY Thursday, 19 August 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.

Sayyidina Grandshaykh ‘Abdullah Daghestani used to recite this ‘Ayah in many Sohbahs. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem: ‘Aṭiū’ Llahu wa aṭiū’ r-Rasūla wa Ūli l-‘amri minkum’, ‘Obey Allah and obey the Messenger and those in authority among you.’ (Qur’ān 04:59).

Obey Allah, obey our Holy Prophet and obey the people of authority. “Ūli l-‘amr” means government. Obey the government.

The work of the government and your work are different. Their knowledge is different and yours is different. Your duty is to earn your living, deal w
