em. Men who listen to women lose their manhood; his manly honor is lost. When women control men, the world becomes ter- rible, it is now terrible. Do not be like them and don't act like them. "Man Tashabbaha Bi Qawmin Fa huwa Minhum". What right do you have; Islamic countries are following Jewish and Christain priest's made-up pro- gram. They put the time one hour ahead. Does Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) bring the sun forward or back- ward? What disgrace is this? What ignorance is this, shame!
I am giving fatwa for all of them. You are outside of Is- lam, because, "Man Tashabbaha Bi Qawmin Fa huwa Minhum" There is power. I am nothing, but I am saying the rights of Sharia'. Do not oppose! You will not make it to Rajab, Ramadan, or Eid. Change the time, quickly.
Make an Islamic time. Let them follow you, not you fol- low them. The head does not follow the tail. The tail follows head . "My wife wants like this, to dress like this." No! There is no fashion in Islam. They still want, in the Holy Lands, the ladies want. May Allah (subha- nahu wa ta'ala) increase the king's power -give us per- mission to drive cars- the king's rank will increase - I am not giving permission. If you shout, if you give me the whole world, I won't give ladies permission. Good for you, king! Take away the paper oh Muslims. Do not do any business with paper, No. Trade is to be with gold and silver, valuable things. "Man Tashabbaha Bi Qaw- min Fahuwa Minhum". Europe's Jewish and Christian priests that is what they ordered; they got rid of gold, silver and brought paper. Neither their trade, nor what they sell or buy is halal (permissible).
This is Islam, we have honor. Oh kings, listen. This bombardment is not from me. I am not interfering, I am just informing. Fix the time and bring Islamic time. Use Islamic time which is according to sunset. Our day starts when the sun sets. These ones, their day starts in the middle of night, in pitch dark. Our day starts after Maghrib prayer, it opens, opens, opens. O Islam! Where are you? O Shah-e Mardan, where are you? What can I do? To say this they gave me a three day notice. Now, they said, bombard them, don't be afraid. Most of their souls will be taken if they don't fix their time. Islam has honor. Do not play with time. And your time Islamic time, they call it Alaturka.
None of the Sultans used Western time but these ones have western watches on their arms, and the most ex- pensive fancy watches. Adornment is for women. Men don't adorn themselves! Men are men. What stupid people have we become. There is shiddah (intensity)
now and now, what did Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam) mention about this? "And you will fol- low the steps of the nations before you."(Hadith) He mentioned, he knows their weaknesses, Prophet (sallal- lahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam). Do not follow them! Rid your countries of the of the affliction called fashion. O ladies, do not follow fashion! The dress you wear fol- lowing fashion. In the grave it will be fire and burn you. Dont pester your husband buy me this and that. Your beauty is only for your husband and mahrem (close rel- atives).
Change it O kings, change the watch on your hands. If you don't, there's a forty day notice to go to the other side. O Shah-e Mardan draw Dhul Fiqar. There is per- mission now. Let's see until Rajab. I am not from those asking for monthly salary. I am a weak, poor servant. I am weak, but for three days I am holding on to this ad- dressing. Allah says "Who imitates a people is one of them." (Hadith) Do not be like them, I am saying. Do not look like them. We sacrificed everything for Europe. Shame on Muslims, shame on princes, presidents, lead- ers. Democracy what democracy? May Hadrat 'Ali's (ra- di Allahu 'anhu) sword cut the heads of those believing in democracy. And then what did we do? O, let the Jew- ish priests come, let's beg them to give us weapons. What weapons do you need? Say, Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. It will destroy all of them, one majzub (attracted one) one who has power to attract. O kings listen! Shah-e Mardan isn't reading stories! He is Shah-e Mar- dan, Owner of the Arena, Shah-e Mardan, Ay Habib ar- Rahman! Ay Sultan! Sayyidina 'Ali ibni Abi Talib. Shah-e Mardan, Sultan of the Arenas!
O holy ones, what can we do? In order to say this they didn't give me permission for three days they said, don't
say. Now you can say. Now there is permission to speak. Happiness to the souls of those listening. Those listen- ing will save themselves; those not listening, by Rama- dan armies will make them go. O Akmalluddin Effendi, don't wear pants one more time; don't wear jacket, tie. Understand? If not, you will go to the other side too. They will now bring those who understand Rajabun Ajayibun. Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar Wa Lillahi l-Hamd. Dhul Fiqar is ready, it will take their heads off especially those leaders who say we are this and that and oppress the people. Maybe, they won't make it to Ramadan; their heads will fly. They should beware!
We are Ikhwan, Shia, we are this and that; those who say this they should all be afraid, tremble. Those oppos- ing kings, most will go. And kings, as we said, should be kings of Islam, their heads will be at ease. They shouldn't listen to their ladies. If they do, they won't see Paradise. Look at the sensitivity in Islam "Who imitates a people is one of them"(Hadith) Alayhi as-Salatu wa as- Salam. Do not look like them or their western fashion. That is made-up by European priests; they ordered and time was put ahead one hour. What does this mean? They are holding me back for three days. Make a heavy bombardment about this, I was given permission last night. How is my talk? It's Astonishing!
I have no power. I am nothing; but, I will make this world a riot, an earthquake. I will raise the Banner of Islam. Let them follow us. We don't need to follow them. O kings, princes, presidents. Do not touch the time - let your time be Islamic time or else, you'll leave without faith. We seek refuge in Allah, don't make emp- ty claims. People don't get honor by killing. "Wa Man Ahyaha Faka'annama Ahya An-Nasa Jami`aan" (5:32)
don't kill! Allah's order: "Wa La Taqtulu 'Anfusakum" (4:29) Don't kill! Without My order no one should kill. They are not listening, they will all be shredded. I am angry, I have anger on me. I don't have anything, but, Shah-e Mardan's power. If you put cigarette in your mouth ,in the grave you'll suffocate from smoke, come back to life suffocate come back. Those wearing fancy clothes men and women will wear clothes of fire. Take care of the Sunnah, take care of Allah's Habib's way. Live like a Muslim, or else Until Ramadan I'll have re- venge on them.
A Divine Decree has come from Shah-e Mardan they will all go. Ya Rabbi forgive us. We're asking for servants who'll show us our way, who understand the way of Is- lam For three days, they're saying we'll change the time one hour ahead. How can it be? It is revenge for this. They held me for three days because this bombardment never came before. This power never came before. Now, they won't leave anyone from Iranians, Turks, Saudis, from Sham, those not coming to right way will go to grave. women who are not listening either go to mental hospital or grave. Listen. O kings take care of Islamic dress, put crown of Islam on your heads so nothing will harm you. Why are you running after them? Who is China, Russia? is China, Russia, Europe, or America going to defeat the armies of Allah? We are not making any noise, but the time has come and the sword will be drawn
"La Tattabi`Khutuwati sh-Shaytani" (24:21) They are all satans. Do not follow them, Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) is saying. O kings, Mursi is sitting on the chair, the chair will sit on his head. This person, that person, leave these games, take care of Allah's servants, serve His ser- vants. Do not make them servants to you. Parliament
assembly. No! It is false. Do not we have Sharia'? When there is Sharia', why do you make a constitution?(Spit) on your constiution. When there is Allah's Sharia, As- taizzu BiLlah. "Inna Allaha Ya'muru Bil`Adli Wa Al Ihsa- ni Wa Ita'i Dhil Qurba Wa Yanha Ani Al-Fahsha'i Wa Al- Munkari Wa Al-Baghyi Ya`izukum La`allakum Tadhak- karuna." (16:90) This is our constitution, The Quran.
O scholars of Egypt why are you afraid? Why afraid of ignorant ones? Why don't you show the majesty of Is- lam? O Azhar, the ones in Turkey, Saudi Arabia, all of you, fear Allah! Enforce the Sharia' or else something will come on your heads. Do not kill people. Try to make them live. Take care of Adab. Allah gave you the rank of Islam, don't use it in the worng way. You will say "hik" and die right there. Take off those ornaments your hand. Say Akmaluddin (Ihsan) son, say: don't wear valuable watches. Let the chain of a watch be seen and Europe can follow our time if they want. We are not ob- liged to follow their time. That is why I didn't change my clock. My watch is alaturka - it starts from sunset. This one is upside down, the day starts in the middle of night. Can the day start in the middle of night? Do not you have a sturdy meter? Daytime is between sunrise and sunset after that is night. Sharia' has appointed the day and night. No. We are making up this and that. Well, you will collapse if you don't listen to this advice, both Iran's leader, or Turk's leader or Egypt's drunk one, or in Saudi Arabia the ones who ride cars and airplanes with arrogance. Leave this. Ride on camels, it'll give you honor. Our Master (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sal- lam) rode (camels). Go out into the arena like that, with a sword. Do not fear, Islam is the highest! Muslims have honor. Do not change the time, you won't reach the end. O ignorant ones!
We hope Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) does not make us from ignorant ones. How can you be Muslim if you don't even know the days or time? How can we deal with Muslims? We are the heads, they say. Aman Ya Rabbi! Send us a Sultan who will unite Muslim world and make world of kufur tremble. Send us a Sultan Ya Rabbi! Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar Wa Lillahi'l Hamd. Fatiha.
O princes, O princes! You are responsible on Judgement Day. Prepare how you will answer. Who will be under the banner of Prophet (salla 'llah 'alayhi wa Alihi wa sal- lam) You will see. Who will be sent away from the Pond of Kawthar? You will see. You will see who won't be able to pass Sirat. Aman Ya Rabbi! Tawba Ya Rabbi. I am a helpless servant. I am angry at my own ego. I am like a volcano. For all Islamic naitons these are the ways to save yourselves. Sharia' Garrawun Muhammadiyya. What constitution? When there is Sharia' Muhamma- diyya. They are saying to make constitution. Who are you and your inventions? Why are you meddling with the constitution? Are you God? I am ashamed to say "Allah". We are making laws, constitutions. Make it and drown in it ! La Hawla Wa La Quwwata illa Billah. Fati- ha
So, for these three days,I wasn't given permssion to say this talk. The one who likes can take, the one who does not like can get his grave ready. Fatiha.
Chapter Summary
- I am hoping that this will help the world of Is- lam to conquer and the world of kufur to be shaken. The world of kufur is already built on top of rubbish. It is a nonsense establishment. The building of Islam is a castle! A castle that cannot collapse belongs to Islam!
- Oh believers, "wa antumul a'launa in kuntum mu'minin" - you are believers you are superior.
- When do you receive greatness? "Wa antumul a'launa in kuntum mu'minin". When is the crown of superiority dressed on your head? If you are believers, if you say, 'I am a believer', then you will be great; you will be high.
- "Wa antumul a'launa in kuntum mu'minin"- if you are believers, Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) will give you greatness and honor above the greatness given by Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) there is no greatness, finished.
- I am Iranian, I am Turk, I am Saudi Arabian, I am Egyptian, I am Sudani, I am Libyan, these aren't accepted. If you are believers, you are giv- en greatness and honor, you are great, you are great okay.
- What is Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) saying? Ya ayyuha Llathina 'Amanu Latattabi'u Khutuwati- sh Shaytani (24:21) Is it okay?
- It's not a joke. To Iranians, to Turks, to people of Sham, to those in Hijaz (Arabian Peninsula), In- dia, China, this is for them too. Latattabi'u Khu- tuwati-sh Shaytani (24:21) - don't follow the footsteps of satan!
- They ride in cars. Do not ride in cars, ride on camels. Do not be like them. Shame on people! Now an important issue is going to be told. You will follow step by step.
- You think it is fashion to follow them step by step? "Wa antumul a'launa" But You are su- preme. Oh kings! Allah gave you greatness.
- Kings this addressing is to you. The leaders of Is- lamic world are you leading or following? This is why I have paused for three days, because of this burden. Does Islam not have honor ? Why are you making yourself tails of animals? You are the head. Europe has taken the clock forward. Who gave you the authority to change the hours?
- What a shame on our government and on the Is- lamic world. Our world is different, their world is different. Shame on you!
- Our people immediately took the hours forward. By whose command? Unbeliever Europeans? We follow them, we get on very well with them. We get on well with Israel? What are you going to do? You are going astray. This is not the path of Allah Almighty. Does Islam not have honor? Is it under the tail? Islam is the head. Do you have the right, Europe, to take the time forward? What's happening to our people? Are we their servants? Are we under their command? Shame on our kings, our scholars, our Prime Ministers.
- We are not Europe's servant or monkey.
- This is the issue: moving the time. Whose com- mand? Europe's? Are we donkeys of Europe? Where is the honor of Islam ? They must follow us!
- Use our old watches, hanging from the pocket. The writing on it is also Islamic. Time - the day starts with sunset till the following day. Pay at- tention to this.
- Men who listen to women lose their manhood; his manly honor is lost. When women control men, the world becomes terrible, it is now terri- ble.
- None of the Sultans used Western time but these ones have western watches on their arms, and the most expensive fancy watches. Adorn- ment is for women. Men don't adorn them- selves! Men are men. What stupid people have we become.
- Democracy what democracy? May Hadrat 'Ali's (radi Allahu 'anhu) sword cut the heads of those believing in democracy. And then what did we do? O, let the Jewish priests come, let's beg them to give us weapons. What weapons do you need? Say, Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. It will destroy all of them, one majzub (attracted one) one who has power to attract. O kings listen! Shah-e Mardan isn't reading stories! He is Shah- e Mardan, Owner of the Arena, Shah-e Mardan, Ay Habib ar-Rahman! Ay Sultan! Sayyidina 'Ali ibni Abi Talib. Shah-e Mardan, Sultan of the Arenas!
CHAPTER 21
Grandness
Shaykh Muhammad Nazim Adil Al-Haqqani An- Naqshbandi, Sohbat of the 17th of April, 2013.
It is not really obvious who is what. Edeb Ya Hu! (Keep good manners, O He!) That's exactly what is needed. People have no manners. Youngsters in particular. They are not being taught manners and the older ones have forgotten their manners, too. They have lost respect. Marhaba! (Welcome!) We are asking permis- sion. O Men of Allah, we ask for support, O Sultan of Saints, we ask for support. O Master of the spiritual domain, Shah-e Mardan. We ask permission. Your pas- sionate love and enthusiasm are an ocean, a deep sea.
Who takes a drop from that sea will flourish in this world, and find the eternal bliss of Paradise hereafter.
Welcome to you, in the assembly of Shah-e Mardan. Ahhahhahh. As-Salamu alaykum. Let's offer greetings of peace, it is the sign of believers. Animals have no speech, they don't say it. But to man Allah Most High has given speech. He made him His representative on earth. He gave him speech. As-Salamu alaykum! O at-
tenders, sitting at Shah-e Mardan's bounteous table, observing Shah-e Mardan's bravery, learning about it, asking for a portion of his light. Who takes a portion from his light, does not take light from other ways. A human being without light is like a pitch-black piece of coal. The only thing it's good for is to burn in the fire. Originally coal is wood. Our cabinets and chests of drawers are from wood as well. But wood which has turned to coal, is only good for fire, whilst other wood is suitable for any use. That means there are two kinds of human beings.
Let's listen to Shah-e Mardan. O beloved brethren of Shah-e Mardan, enter the assembly of the spiritual sul- tans. Welcome. Let's say, "As-Salamu alaykum!" O be- loved brethren of Shah-e Mardan. The Sultan of the domain of true men, is Shah-e Mardan. How delightful it is to sit in his assembly, to share in his exploits, his marvelous works and righteous traits. He has appeared, Shah-e Mardan. MashaAllah. Bring him here into our gathering! Bring him here! Come, let's listen to what he'll be made to say, what he's ordered to proclaim. While mentioning the owner of the City of Knowledge, the Head of All Creation, the Pride of the Universe, the beloved of the Lord of All the Worlds - Hu - I like to stand up out of respect. I'd like to do it every time, if it wasn't for my weakness.
He provides training, teaching the ways of goodness in his court, Shah-e Mardan, he's waiting at the training grounds. After performing morning prayers if you can sit somewhere til sunrise, or if you don't have that much time be it in a coffee shop, at a shrine, in a tekke (lodge), or a caravansary, be ready! Do not go to sleep! Behold the majestic greatness of your Lord! Let them
teach you the majestic Greatness of the Exalted, the Most High.
Let's say Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. Thanks be to our Gracious Protector for letting us mention His Exalted Name. It is an honour granted to the Nation of Mu- hammad (blessings and peace be upon him). Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. It was granted to some Prophets for a righteous deed, then it was taken away. The Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam) pronounced the Basmalah and the fire died down. The Prophet Suleiman ('alayhi sa- lam) pronounced the Basmalah and the throne of Bilqis, the Queen of Sheba appeared. They were granted to use it once in instances of necessity. But our Kingly Mes- senger, the Beloved of Allah Most High, our Glorious Leader Muhammad al-Mustafa (Allah bless him and grant him peace), we belong to his nation, the Basmalah was sent down for us and not taken away afterwards.
It was sent down for Prophet Nuh ('alayhi salam) and he was saved. It was sent down for Prophet Suleiman ('alayhi salam) and he brought Bilqis', Queen of Sheba's throne. It was sent down for Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam), and he was saved from the fire of Nimrod. Say the Basmalah, O ignorant people, say "Bismillahir Rah- manir Rahim". To burn Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam), Nimrod mobilized the whole population. Not one tree they left on the mountains. "I will burn him at all cost", he said regarding Ibrahim (peace be upon him). Accord- ing to one report the flames that Nimrod kindled in Ni- nive, his place of residence, could be seen as far as Damascus. Such a huge fire he lit. For what? To burn the Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam), someone called Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam).
With one match he might have burnt him. With one sign of his Lord, a single match would suffice to burn a man to cinders. But, according to the magnitude of Ibrahim's ('alayhi salam) mission, according to the awe- inspiring charisma by which he was dressed, Nimrod said, "He might be burned by a match, but his affair is not done with by a match." That is how great he was. According to the greatness he saw in the Prophet Ibra- him ('alayhi salam), Nimrod gave his order. Whatever trees were to be found on the mountains, he had them cut down. He piled up a huge mount of wood. The blaze was the size of a mountain. The light of the flames could be seen from as far as Damascus. What was to be burnt? Something like a matchstick can burn a man. But that was not Nimrod's only aim. He wanted to burn that blessed person together with the religion and the true faith he had brought. Out of rage, because Ibrahim ('alayhi salam) had demolished and destroyed the idols, Nimrod said, "I will burn him in the fire." Yes, a match would suffice to burn a man. But he did not use a match, he lit a fire the size of a mountain instead . Why? Because Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam) was dressed in an awe-inspiring appearance. A man is not much more than a finger, one match would be enough to burn him. But Nimrod's aim was not only, to burn Prophet Ibrahim's ('alayhi salam) physical body. It was Ibrahim's mission (upon him and our Prophet be bless- ings and peace) he wanted to get rid of. Ala Nabiyyi Alayhi Salatu was Salam. It was the powerful call to be- lieve in the divine unity of Allah, the Exalted, and the fact that he had destroyed the idols, they had been wor- shipping, thereby ruining the claim of their divinity for which Nimrod wanted to take revenge, so that he said: "I will burn him."
Some reports say they collected wood for six months, then the fire was lit. Its blaze could be seen as far as Damascus, in a traveling distance of forty days. Truly, man is only the size of a finger, an ox is about ten times his size. An elephant may have the weight of a hundred men. But he does not have the same value. The real goal was not to burn the Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam), Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam) could have been burnt by a match. What Nimrod wanted, was to destroy the religion of divine Unity, which Ibrahim (upon him and our Prophet be blessings and peace) had brought by the order of the Owner of heavens and earth, the Lord of the mighty throne the Exalted, the absolute Real One. Which had ruined his own claim to power. He did all this, to burn the Divine order Ibrahim ('alayhi salam) had brought.
What determines a person’s greatness or low position, is that some people are like gold, others are like dirt. Be- cause of the gold Ibrahim ('alayhi salam) had brought his dirt had lost all its appeal together with the idols. This was the reason for his revenge, for his anger: "Why did he bring my dirt into that state? I will burn him, I will burn him", but in reality there was nothing to burn, because wood burns, but gold does not burn. O Shah-e Mardan, our distinguished Master Sayyidina 'Ali (radi Allahu 'anhu). O glorious Sultan, Shah-e Mardan, Ma- sha'Allah. Yah, Yah, why are people rushing to gather behind him? People are trying to take some benefit.
Every day all these newspapers write "this person is such and such, that person is somebody, this one solves the problems, that one ruins things", foolishly spreading all these things. All of it has no value. The greatness awarded by newspapers has no value, my son. In the old days there was no such thing called newspaper. It's a
new invention, as they say. In the old days these papers didn't exist. What do we need them for now? Look what wisdom Shah-e Mardan teaches! Why did they invent newspapers? To present false greatness to people. Goodness! You are all fake. Hey, your core is dung and your body is nothing but dirt. Your personality is only manure. Your greatness is all over the papers, printed by newspapers. The papers' greatness is not even worth ten cents. It expires today, tomorrow it's torn up and thrown away.
Real greatness is sent down for true servants from hea- vens. But fake greatness, is found in the papers. With plenty of pictures, titles and pompous display. When you look closely, they don't resemble anything. Pardon me, but he looks like nothing, that French president and I don't want to talk about ours, they might get of- fended. Ours has lost all greatness, what greatness is there left? One can say that Sultan 'Abd al-Hamid II possessed greatness, but the greatness of those who are awarded greatness by newspapers Mehmet, my son, do you understand this point? The greatness of the 21st century, from where do its great personalities receive their greatness? The newspapers award them their greatness. Big fat pictures in the papers, "Well, he went there. Oh, he came here, and he did this, he did that. But in reality the one called great in the papers isn't great at all. As far as the greatness found in newspapers is concerned, and I am speaking off the records - if you can't find anything as an alternative to toilet paper, you may use that paper. Whose photograph is on it? Who- soever's picture it may be. That is their position. Shame on you. This is a mankind which has lost its humane- ness. They are beyond any description, beyond words, outside of humanity.
O Shah-e Mardan, may blessings and peace be upon you, coming from your beloved Muhammad al-Mustafa (may peace and blessings be upon him). How beautiful, how beautiful! They can't distinguish any more between beauty and ugliness, those people given greatness by the papers have become full of conceit. Every day the papers print those big fat pictures: "This is so and so." "Let's see, how does he look?" "Just like us." "Maybe he's got two heads?" "No." "Does he have four feet?" "No, man!" "So what? How many arms? Maybe forty legs?" "No my dear, he's got two legs." "Then what about his mouth?" "The mouth looks just like ours. "Whatever he finds, he eats, without distinction. They are people who don't know halal or haram." "So how can he be great?" "The people have cheered him and said, 'This is our leader.' The papers have made him great, printed his picture. So he became a great man." "How many meters tall is he?" "It is well known that the people of this na- tion are quite tall, so he's probably about two meters." Well, if he is two meters tall, who is very tall La Yakhlu min al-habali (he does not lack foolishness) is affected by stupidity. He is very stupid. Some people who are short wear especially high heeled shoes to appear taller than they are. In our days all those who are considered great by the newspapers belong to this kind of people putting high heels under their shoes.
These are the people who rule the world - absolutely blind! They're unable to control themselves, how can they reign over the world? That's how it is over there. This is the French one. Well, we are Turks. We run around barefoot anyway, our shoes are falling apart, we possess nothing, that's why we receive no attention. All greatness belongs to Allah, and honor belongs to Allah's Messenger (may Allah bless him and grant him peace!).
Our Master, did he have his picture printed in the newspapers? He ordered: "Do not portray me! I don't want greatness by being depicted." O glorious Messen- ger!
None of the sultans ordered to be portrayed so that people should see it, they were not interested. It was the Europeans, who had their pictures taken, those men awarded greatness by newspapers. One of them was called Napoleon. What happened to Napoleon? He was a great man, they say. The man ending the Middle Ages, bringing a new age. How tall was he? He was about a meter and a half. He was a source of great affliction. What did he do? He murdered the king. But cutting someone's head does not make a man great. A lion in the forest may kill three or five animals, or how many he can find cut their heads, tear off their limbs and de- vour them, but he's still the same animal. An animal, that eats a lot, becomes bigger, but an animal has no honour, while the human being possesses honour. You are a human being! Do not look at those who are given greatness by the papers!
Now there is another punishment, another calamity, that thing they call television, it’s another calamity im- mersing people by displaying countless programs and shows. So this man is this or that. Does it really matter? Well, he is two meters tall, man, isn't that enough al- ready? Another one, he is at a wedding, playing some string instrument. Allah Allah. He plays the strings. His father plays the drum, his mother is also playing around. Allah! How did he become great? The papers made him great. Now he'll give a speech at the local as- sembly. At the end he can't remember what he said at the beginning. they are passing him notes, "say this or that!" "Excuse me", he says, "yesterday’s fashion was dif-
ferent. Today we have to play according today’s rules." It is just weird. Shaytan has prepared all these things for them these are his teachings. They are like a hollow container without a bottom, nothing stays in it. Real greatness comes from heavens.
Our Master, the Sultan of Prophets (Allah bless him and grant him peace) said: "Do not portray me, because you are incapable to depict the dress "of greatness my Lord has dressed me with. It will burn you." That's why there is no picture. Our Master is not one of these people, who receive greatness from newspapers. Have they got no shame, that they don't mention the name of such a great Sultan? Only someone, whose picture is in the newspapers, is a great man. What greatness ist that? If greatness is measured by weight, an ox has more great- ness than they do. Measured by length, by tallness, they couldn't match a giraffe. This is the general comprehen- sion now.
O Shah-e Mardan, we are gratefully obliged to you, for inspiring us, for your explanations. Who holds the rank of greatness? Greatness is not determined by pictures in the newspapers, nor by false titles. Yesterday he was the top deputy. Today they threw him out. Well, what hap- pened to greatness? If he was gold, they would have held on to him until the end, so it means, the guy wasn't all gold, rather something like grass, which those ani- mals feeding on it turn into dung. He belonged to that kind. What value does it have? For three days the pa- pers print big fat pictures, "He is the leader of such-and- such country, he's this and he's that." O Muslims, you're also shown in huge pictures, O princes, O kings. Ha, let's say, your uncles son, Shah-e Mardan is, warning you, is waking you up!
If greatness, was measured by weight, an ox is heavier than you. Otherwise, if it was measured by tallness, by length, there are giraffes. Giraffes are maybe three, maybe even five meters tall and while the ox may be he

em. Men who listen to women lose their manhood; his manly honor is lost. When women control men, the world becomes ter- rible, it is now terrible. Do not be like them and don't act like them. "Man Tashabbaha Bi Qawmin Fa huwa Minhum". What right do you have; Islamic countries are following Jewish and Christain priest's made-up pro- gram. They put the time one hour ahead. Does Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) bring the sun forward or back- ward? What disgrace is this? What ignorance is this, shame!
I am giving fatwa for all of them. You are outside of Is- lam, because, "Man Tashabbaha Bi Qawmin Fa huwa Minhum" There is power. I am nothing, but I am saying the rights of Sharia'. Do not oppose! You will not make it to Rajab, Ramadan, or Eid. Change the time, quickly.
Make an Islamic time. Let them follow you, not you fol- low them. The head does not follow the tail. The tail follows head . "My wife wants like this, to dress like this." No! There is no fashion in Islam. They still want, in the Holy Lands, the ladies want. May Allah (subha- nahu wa ta'ala) increase the king's power -give us per- mission to drive cars- the king's rank will increase - I am not giving permission. If you shout, if you give me the whole world, I won't give ladies permission. Good for you, king! Take away the paper oh Muslims. Do not do any business with paper, No. Trade is to be with gold and silver, valuable things. "Man Tashabbaha Bi Qaw- min Fahuwa Minhum". Europe's Jewish and Christian priests that is what they ordered; they got rid of gold, silver and brought paper. Neither their trade, nor what they sell or buy is halal (permissible).
This is Islam, we have honor. Oh kings, listen. This bombardment is not from me. I am not interfering, I am just informing. Fix the time and bring Islamic time. Use Islamic time which is according to sunset. Our day starts when the sun sets. These ones, their day starts in the middle of night, in pitch dark. Our day starts after Maghrib prayer, it opens, opens, opens. O Islam! Where are you? O Shah-e Mardan, where are you? What can I do? To say this they gave me a three day notice. Now, they said, bombard them, don't be afraid. Most of their souls will be taken if they don't fix their time. Islam has honor. Do not play with time. And your time Islamic time, they call it Alaturka.
None of the Sultans used Western time but these ones have western watches on their arms, and the most ex- pensive fancy watches. Adornment is for women. Men don't adorn themselves! Men are men. What stupid people have we become. There is shiddah (intensity)
now and now, what did Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam) mention about this? "And you will fol- low the steps of the nations before you."(Hadith) He mentioned, he knows their weaknesses, Prophet (sallal- lahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam). Do not follow them! Rid your countries of the of the affliction called fashion. O ladies, do not follow fashion! The dress you wear fol- lowing fashion. In the grave it will be fire and burn you. Dont pester your husband buy me this and that. Your beauty is only for your husband and mahrem (close rel- atives).
Change it O kings, change the watch on your hands. If you don't, there's a forty day notice to go to the other side. O Shah-e Mardan draw Dhul Fiqar. There is per- mission now. Let's see until Rajab. I am not from those asking for monthly salary. I am a weak, poor servant. I am weak, but for three days I am holding on to this ad- dressing. Allah says "Who imitates a people is one of them." (Hadith) Do not be like them, I am saying. Do not look like them. We sacrificed everything for Europe. Shame on Muslims, shame on princes, presidents, lead- ers. Democracy what democracy? May Hadrat 'Ali's (ra- di Allahu 'anhu) sword cut the heads of those believing in democracy. And then what did we do? O, let the Jew- ish priests come, let's beg them to give us weapons. What weapons do you need? Say, Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. It will destroy all of them, one majzub (attracted one) one who has power to attract. O kings listen! Shah-e Mardan isn't reading stories! He is Shah-e Mar- dan, Owner of the Arena, Shah-e Mardan, Ay Habib ar- Rahman! Ay Sultan! Sayyidina 'Ali ibni Abi Talib. Shah-e Mardan, Sultan of the Arenas!
O holy ones, what can we do? In order to say this they didn't give me permission for three days they said, don't
say. Now you can say. Now there is permission to speak. Happiness to the souls of those listening. Those listen- ing will save themselves; those not listening, by Rama- dan armies will make them go. O Akmalluddin Effendi, don't wear pants one more time; don't wear jacket, tie. Understand? If not, you will go to the other side too. They will now bring those who understand Rajabun Ajayibun. Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar Wa Lillahi l-Hamd. Dhul Fiqar is ready, it will take their heads off especially those leaders who say we are this and that and oppress the people. Maybe, they won't make it to Ramadan; their heads will fly. They should beware!
We are Ikhwan, Shia, we are this and that; those who say this they should all be afraid, tremble. Those oppos- ing kings, most will go. And kings, as we said, should be kings of Islam, their heads will be at ease. They shouldn't listen to their ladies. If they do, they won't see Paradise. Look at the sensitivity in Islam "Who imitates a people is one of them"(Hadith) Alayhi as-Salatu wa as- Salam. Do not look like them or their western fashion. That is made-up by European priests; they ordered and time was put ahead one hour. What does this mean? They are holding me back for three days. Make a heavy bombardment about this, I was given permission last night. How is my talk? It's Astonishing!
I have no power. I am nothing; but, I will make this world a riot, an earthquake. I will raise the Banner of Islam. Let them follow us. We don't need to follow them. O kings, princes, presidents. Do not touch the time - let your time be Islamic time or else, you'll leave without faith. We seek refuge in Allah, don't make emp- ty claims. People don't get honor by killing. "Wa Man Ahyaha Faka'annama Ahya An-Nasa Jami`aan" (5:32)
don't kill! Allah's order: "Wa La Taqtulu 'Anfusakum" (4:29) Don't kill! Without My order no one should kill. They are not listening, they will all be shredded. I am angry, I have anger on me. I don't have anything, but, Shah-e Mardan's power. If you put cigarette in your mouth ,in the grave you'll suffocate from smoke, come back to life suffocate come back. Those wearing fancy clothes men and women will wear clothes of fire. Take care of the Sunnah, take care of Allah's Habib's way. Live like a Muslim, or else Until Ramadan I'll have re- venge on them.
A Divine Decree has come from Shah-e Mardan they will all go. Ya Rabbi forgive us. We're asking for servants who'll show us our way, who understand the way of Is- lam For three days, they're saying we'll change the time one hour ahead. How can it be? It is revenge for this. They held me for three days because this bombardment never came before. This power never came before. Now, they won't leave anyone from Iranians, Turks, Saudis, from Sham, those not coming to right way will go to grave. women who are not listening either go to mental hospital or grave. Listen. O kings take care of Islamic dress, put crown of Islam on your heads so nothing will harm you. Why are you running after them? Who is China, Russia? is China, Russia, Europe, or America going to defeat the armies of Allah? We are not making any noise, but the time has come and the sword will be drawn
"La Tattabi`Khutuwati sh-Shaytani" (24:21) They are all satans. Do not follow them, Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) is saying. O kings, Mursi is sitting on the chair, the chair will sit on his head. This person, that person, leave these games, take care of Allah's servants, serve His ser- vants. Do not make them servants to you. Parliament
assembly. No! It is false. Do not we have Sharia'? When there is Sharia', why do you make a constitution?(Spit) on your constiution. When there is Allah's Sharia, As- taizzu BiLlah. "Inna Allaha Ya'muru Bil`Adli Wa Al Ihsa- ni Wa Ita'i Dhil Qurba Wa Yanha Ani Al-Fahsha'i Wa Al- Munkari Wa Al-Baghyi Ya`izukum La`allakum Tadhak- karuna." (16:90) This is our constitution, The Quran.
O scholars of Egypt why are you afraid? Why afraid of ignorant ones? Why don't you show the majesty of Is- lam? O Azhar, the ones in Turkey, Saudi Arabia, all of you, fear Allah! Enforce the Sharia' or else something will come on your heads. Do not kill people. Try to make them live. Take care of Adab. Allah gave you the rank of Islam, don't use it in the worng way. You will say "hik" and die right there. Take off those ornaments your hand. Say Akmaluddin (Ihsan) son, say: don't wear valuable watches. Let the chain of a watch be seen and Europe can follow our time if they want. We are not ob- liged to follow their time. That is why I didn't change my clock. My watch is alaturka - it starts from sunset. This one is upside down, the day starts in the middle of night. Can the day start in the middle of night? Do not you have a sturdy meter? Daytime is between sunrise and sunset after that is night. Sharia' has appointed the day and night. No. We are making up this and that. Well, you will collapse if you don't listen to this advice, both Iran's leader, or Turk's leader or Egypt's drunk one, or in Saudi Arabia the ones who ride cars and airplanes with arrogance. Leave this. Ride on camels, it'll give you honor. Our Master (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sal- lam) rode (camels). Go out into the arena like that, with a sword. Do not fear, Islam is the highest! Muslims have honor. Do not change the time, you won't reach the end. O ignorant ones!
We hope Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) does not make us from ignorant ones. How can you be Muslim if you don't even know the days or time? How can we deal with Muslims? We are the heads, they say. Aman Ya Rabbi! Send us a Sultan who will unite Muslim world and make world of kufur tremble. Send us a Sultan Ya Rabbi! Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar Wa Lillahi'l Hamd. Fatiha.
O princes, O princes! You are responsible on Judgement Day. Prepare how you will answer. Who will be under the banner of Prophet (salla 'llah 'alayhi wa Alihi wa sal- lam) You will see. Who will be sent away from the Pond of Kawthar? You will see. You will see who won't be able to pass Sirat. Aman Ya Rabbi! Tawba Ya Rabbi. I am a helpless servant. I am angry at my own ego. I am like a volcano. For all Islamic naitons these are the ways to save yourselves. Sharia' Garrawun Muhammadiyya. What constitution? When there is Sharia' Muhamma- diyya. They are saying to make constitution. Who are you and your inventions? Why are you meddling with the constitution? Are you God? I am ashamed to say "Allah". We are making laws, constitutions. Make it and drown in it ! La Hawla Wa La Quwwata illa Billah. Fati- ha
So, for these three days,I wasn't given permssion to say this talk. The one who likes can take, the one who does not like can get his grave ready. Fatiha.
Chapter Summary
- I am hoping that this will help the world of Is- lam to conquer and the world of kufur to be shaken. The world of kufur is already built on top of rubbish. It is a nonsense establishment. The building of Islam is a castle! A castle that cannot collapse belongs to Islam!
- Oh believers, "wa antumul a'launa in kuntum mu'minin" - you are believers you are superior.
- When do you receive greatness? "Wa antumul a'launa in kuntum mu'minin". When is the crown of superiority dressed on your head? If you are believers, if you say, 'I am a believer', then you will be great; you will be high.
- "Wa antumul a'launa in kuntum mu'minin"- if you are believers, Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) will give you greatness and honor above the greatness given by Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) there is no greatness, finished.
- I am Iranian, I am Turk, I am Saudi Arabian, I am Egyptian, I am Sudani, I am Libyan, these aren't accepted. If you are believers, you are giv- en greatness and honor, you are great, you are great okay.
- What is Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) saying? Ya ayyuha Llathina 'Amanu Latattabi'u Khutuwati- sh Shaytani (24:21) Is it okay?
- It's not a joke. To Iranians, to Turks, to people of Sham, to those in Hijaz (Arabian Peninsula), In- dia, China, this is for them too. Latattabi'u Khu- tuwati-sh Shaytani (24:21) - don't follow the footsteps of satan!
- They ride in cars. Do not ride in cars, ride on camels. Do not be like them. Shame on people! Now an important issue is going to be told. You will follow step by step.
- You think it is fashion to follow them step by step? "Wa antumul a'launa" But You are su- preme. Oh kings! Allah gave you greatness.
- Kings this addressing is to you. The leaders of Is- lamic world are you leading or following? This is why I have paused for three days, because of this burden. Does Islam not have honor ? Why are you making yourself tails of animals? You are the head. Europe has taken the clock forward. Who gave you the authority to change the hours?
- What a shame on our government and on the Is- lamic world. Our world is different, their world is different. Shame on you!
- Our people immediately took the hours forward. By whose command? Unbeliever Europeans? We follow them, we get on very well with them. We get on well with Israel? What are you going to do? You are going astray. This is not the path of Allah Almighty. Does Islam not have honor? Is it under the tail? Islam is the head. Do you have the right, Europe, to take the time forward? What's happening to our people? Are we their servants? Are we under their command? Shame on our kings, our scholars, our Prime Ministers.
- We are not Europe's servant or monkey.
- This is the issue: moving the time. Whose com- mand? Europe's? Are we donkeys of Europe? Where is the honor of Islam ? They must follow us!
- Use our old watches, hanging from the pocket. The writing on it is also Islamic. Time - the day starts with sunset till the following day. Pay at- tention to this.
- Men who listen to women lose their manhood; his manly honor is lost. When women control men, the world becomes terrible, it is now terri- ble.
- None of the Sultans used Western time but these ones have western watches on their arms, and the most expensive fancy watches. Adorn- ment is for women. Men don't adorn them- selves! Men are men. What stupid people have we become.
- Democracy what democracy? May Hadrat 'Ali's (radi Allahu 'anhu) sword cut the heads of those believing in democracy. And then what did we do? O, let the Jewish priests come, let's beg them to give us weapons. What weapons do you need? Say, Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. It will destroy all of them, one majzub (attracted one) one who has power to attract. O kings listen! Shah-e Mardan isn't reading stories! He is Shah- e Mardan, Owner of the Arena, Shah-e Mardan, Ay Habib ar-Rahman! Ay Sultan! Sayyidina 'Ali ibni Abi Talib. Shah-e Mardan, Sultan of the Arenas!
CHAPTER 21
Grandness
Shaykh Muhammad Nazim Adil Al-Haqqani An- Naqshbandi, Sohbat of the 17th of April, 2013.
It is not really obvious who is what. Edeb Ya Hu! (Keep good manners, O He!) That's exactly what is needed. People have no manners. Youngsters in particular. They are not being taught manners and the older ones have forgotten their manners, too. They have lost respect. Marhaba! (Welcome!) We are asking permis- sion. O Men of Allah, we ask for support, O Sultan of Saints, we ask for support. O Master of the spiritual domain, Shah-e Mardan. We ask permission. Your pas- sionate love and enthusiasm are an ocean, a deep sea.
Who takes a drop from that sea will flourish in this world, and find the eternal bliss of Paradise hereafter.
Welcome to you, in the assembly of Shah-e Mardan. Ahhahhahh. As-Salamu alaykum. Let's offer greetings of peace, it is the sign of believers. Animals have no speech, they don't say it. But to man Allah Most High has given speech. He made him His representative on earth. He gave him speech. As-Salamu alaykum! O at-
tenders, sitting at Shah-e Mardan's bounteous table, observing Shah-e Mardan's bravery, learning about it, asking for a portion of his light. Who takes a portion from his light, does not take light from other ways. A human being without light is like a pitch-black piece of coal. The only thing it's good for is to burn in the fire. Originally coal is wood. Our cabinets and chests of drawers are from wood as well. But wood which has turned to coal, is only good for fire, whilst other wood is suitable for any use. That means there are two kinds of human beings.
Let's listen to Shah-e Mardan. O beloved brethren of Shah-e Mardan, enter the assembly of the spiritual sul- tans. Welcome. Let's say, "As-Salamu alaykum!" O be- loved brethren of Shah-e Mardan. The Sultan of the domain of true men, is Shah-e Mardan. How delightful it is to sit in his assembly, to share in his exploits, his marvelous works and righteous traits. He has appeared, Shah-e Mardan. MashaAllah. Bring him here into our gathering! Bring him here! Come, let's listen to what he'll be made to say, what he's ordered to proclaim. While mentioning the owner of the City of Knowledge, the Head of All Creation, the Pride of the Universe, the beloved of the Lord of All the Worlds - Hu - I like to stand up out of respect. I'd like to do it every time, if it wasn't for my weakness.
He provides training, teaching the ways of goodness in his court, Shah-e Mardan, he's waiting at the training grounds. After performing morning prayers if you can sit somewhere til sunrise, or if you don't have that much time be it in a coffee shop, at a shrine, in a tekke (lodge), or a caravansary, be ready! Do not go to sleep! Behold the majestic greatness of your Lord! Let them
teach you the majestic Greatness of the Exalted, the Most High.
Let's say Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. Thanks be to our Gracious Protector for letting us mention His Exalted Name. It is an honour granted to the Nation of Mu- hammad (blessings and peace be upon him). Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim. It was granted to some Prophets for a righteous deed, then it was taken away. The Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam) pronounced the Basmalah and the fire died down. The Prophet Suleiman ('alayhi sa- lam) pronounced the Basmalah and the throne of Bilqis, the Queen of Sheba appeared. They were granted to use it once in instances of necessity. But our Kingly Mes- senger, the Beloved of Allah Most High, our Glorious Leader Muhammad al-Mustafa (Allah bless him and grant him peace), we belong to his nation, the Basmalah was sent down for us and not taken away afterwards.
It was sent down for Prophet Nuh ('alayhi salam) and he was saved. It was sent down for Prophet Suleiman ('alayhi salam) and he brought Bilqis', Queen of Sheba's throne. It was sent down for Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam), and he was saved from the fire of Nimrod. Say the Basmalah, O ignorant people, say "Bismillahir Rah- manir Rahim". To burn Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam), Nimrod mobilized the whole population. Not one tree they left on the mountains. "I will burn him at all cost", he said regarding Ibrahim (peace be upon him). Accord- ing to one report the flames that Nimrod kindled in Ni- nive, his place of residence, could be seen as far as Damascus. Such a huge fire he lit. For what? To burn the Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam), someone called Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam).
With one match he might have burnt him. With one sign of his Lord, a single match would suffice to burn a man to cinders. But, according to the magnitude of Ibrahim's ('alayhi salam) mission, according to the awe- inspiring charisma by which he was dressed, Nimrod said, "He might be burned by a match, but his affair is not done with by a match." That is how great he was. According to the greatness he saw in the Prophet Ibra- him ('alayhi salam), Nimrod gave his order. Whatever trees were to be found on the mountains, he had them cut down. He piled up a huge mount of wood. The blaze was the size of a mountain. The light of the flames could be seen from as far as Damascus. What was to be burnt? Something like a matchstick can burn a man. But that was not Nimrod's only aim. He wanted to burn that blessed person together with the religion and the true faith he had brought. Out of rage, because Ibrahim ('alayhi salam) had demolished and destroyed the idols, Nimrod said, "I will burn him in the fire." Yes, a match would suffice to burn a man. But he did not use a match, he lit a fire the size of a mountain instead . Why? Because Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam) was dressed in an awe-inspiring appearance. A man is not much more than a finger, one match would be enough to burn him. But Nimrod's aim was not only, to burn Prophet Ibrahim's ('alayhi salam) physical body. It was Ibrahim's mission (upon him and our Prophet be bless- ings and peace) he wanted to get rid of. Ala Nabiyyi Alayhi Salatu was Salam. It was the powerful call to be- lieve in the divine unity of Allah, the Exalted, and the fact that he had destroyed the idols, they had been wor- shipping, thereby ruining the claim of their divinity for which Nimrod wanted to take revenge, so that he said: "I will burn him."
Some reports say they collected wood for six months, then the fire was lit. Its blaze could be seen as far as Damascus, in a traveling distance of forty days. Truly, man is only the size of a finger, an ox is about ten times his size. An elephant may have the weight of a hundred men. But he does not have the same value. The real goal was not to burn the Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam), Prophet Ibrahim ('alayhi salam) could have been burnt by a match. What Nimrod wanted, was to destroy the religion of divine Unity, which Ibrahim (upon him and our Prophet be blessings and peace) had brought by the order of the Owner of heavens and earth, the Lord of the mighty throne the Exalted, the absolute Real One. Which had ruined his own claim to power. He did all this, to burn the Divine order Ibrahim ('alayhi salam) had brought.
What determines a person’s greatness or low position, is that some people are like gold, others are like dirt. Be- cause of the gold Ibrahim ('alayhi salam) had brought his dirt had lost all its appeal together with the idols. This was the reason for his revenge, for his anger: "Why did he bring my dirt into that state? I will burn him, I will burn him", but in reality there was nothing to burn, because wood burns, but gold does not burn. O Shah-e Mardan, our distinguished Master Sayyidina 'Ali (radi Allahu 'anhu). O glorious Sultan, Shah-e Mardan, Ma- sha'Allah. Yah, Yah, why are people rushing to gather behind him? People are trying to take some benefit.
Every day all these newspapers write "this person is such and such, that person is somebody, this one solves the problems, that one ruins things", foolishly spreading all these things. All of it has no value. The greatness awarded by newspapers has no value, my son. In the old days there was no such thing called newspaper. It's a
new invention, as they say. In the old days these papers didn't exist. What do we need them for now? Look what wisdom Shah-e Mardan teaches! Why did they invent newspapers? To present false greatness to people. Goodness! You are all fake. Hey, your core is dung and your body is nothing but dirt. Your personality is only manure. Your greatness is all over the papers, printed by newspapers. The papers' greatness is not even worth ten cents. It expires today, tomorrow it's torn up and thrown away.
Real greatness is sent down for true servants from hea- vens. But fake greatness, is found in the papers. With plenty of pictures, titles and pompous display. When you look closely, they don't resemble anything. Pardon me, but he looks like nothing, that French president and I don't want to talk about ours, they might get of- fended. Ours has lost all greatness, what greatness is there left? One can say that Sultan 'Abd al-Hamid II possessed greatness, but the greatness of those who are awarded greatness by newspapers Mehmet, my son, do you understand this point? The greatness of the 21st century, from where do its great personalities receive their greatness? The newspapers award them their greatness. Big fat pictures in the papers, "Well, he went there. Oh, he came here, and he did this, he did that. But in reality the one called great in the papers isn't great at all. As far as the greatness found in newspapers is concerned, and I am speaking off the records - if you can't find anything as an alternative to toilet paper, you may use that paper. Whose photograph is on it? Who- soever's picture it may be. That is their position. Shame on you. This is a mankind which has lost its humane- ness. They are beyond any description, beyond words, outside of humanity.
O Shah-e Mardan, may blessings and peace be upon you, coming from your beloved Muhammad al-Mustafa (may peace and blessings be upon him). How beautiful, how beautiful! They can't distinguish any more between beauty and ugliness, those people given greatness by the papers have become full of conceit. Every day the papers print those big fat pictures: "This is so and so." "Let's see, how does he look?" "Just like us." "Maybe he's got two heads?" "No." "Does he have four feet?" "No, man!" "So what? How many arms? Maybe forty legs?" "No my dear, he's got two legs." "Then what about his mouth?" "The mouth looks just like ours. "Whatever he finds, he eats, without distinction. They are people who don't know halal or haram." "So how can he be great?" "The people have cheered him and said, 'This is our leader.' The papers have made him great, printed his picture. So he became a great man." "How many meters tall is he?" "It is well known that the people of this na- tion are quite tall, so he's probably about two meters." Well, if he is two meters tall, who is very tall La Yakhlu min al-habali (he does not lack foolishness) is affected by stupidity. He is very stupid. Some people who are short wear especially high heeled shoes to appear taller than they are. In our days all those who are considered great by the newspapers belong to this kind of people putting high heels under their shoes.
These are the people who rule the world - absolutely blind! They're unable to control themselves, how can they reign over the world? That's how it is over there. This is the French one. Well, we are Turks. We run around barefoot anyway, our shoes are falling apart, we possess nothing, that's why we receive no attention. All greatness belongs to Allah, and honor belongs to Allah's Messenger (may Allah bless him and grant him peace!).
Our Master, did he have his picture printed in the newspapers? He ordered: "Do not portray me! I don't want greatness by being depicted." O glorious Messen- ger!
None of the sultans ordered to be portrayed so that people should see it, they were not interested. It was the Europeans, who had their pictures taken, those men awarded greatness by newspapers. One of them was called Napoleon. What happened to Napoleon? He was a great man, they say. The man ending the Middle Ages, bringing a new age. How tall was he? He was about a meter and a half. He was a source of great affliction. What did he do? He murdered the king. But cutting someone's head does not make a man great. A lion in the forest may kill three or five animals, or how many he can find cut their heads, tear off their limbs and de- vour them, but he's still the same animal. An animal, that eats a lot, becomes bigger, but an animal has no honour, while the human being possesses honour. You are a human being! Do not look at those who are given greatness by the papers!
Now there is another punishment, another calamity, that thing they call television, it’s another calamity im- mersing people by displaying countless programs and shows. So this man is this or that. Does it really matter? Well, he is two meters tall, man, isn't that enough al- ready? Another one, he is at a wedding, playing some string instrument. Allah Allah. He plays the strings. His father plays the drum, his mother is also playing around. Allah! How did he become great? The papers made him great. Now he'll give a speech at the local as- sembly. At the end he can't remember what he said at the beginning. they are passing him notes, "say this or that!" "Excuse me", he says, "yesterday’s fashion was dif-
ferent. Today we have to play according today’s rules." It is just weird. Shaytan has prepared all these things for them these are his teachings. They are like a hollow container without a bottom, nothing stays in it. Real greatness comes from heavens.
Our Master, the Sultan of Prophets (Allah bless him and grant him peace) said: "Do not portray me, because you are incapable to depict the dress "of greatness my Lord has dressed me with. It will burn you." That's why there is no picture. Our Master is not one of these people, who receive greatness from newspapers. Have they got no shame, that they don't mention the name of such a great Sultan? Only someone, whose picture is in the newspapers, is a great man. What greatness ist that? If greatness is measured by weight, an ox has more great- ness than they do. Measured by length, by tallness, they couldn't match a giraffe. This is the general comprehen- sion now.
O Shah-e Mardan, we are gratefully obliged to you, for inspiring us, for your explanations. Who holds the rank of greatness? Greatness is not determined by pictures in the newspapers, nor by false titles. Yesterday he was the top deputy. Today they threw him out. Well, what hap- pened to greatness? If he was gold, they would have held on to him until the end, so it means, the guy wasn't all gold, rather something like grass, which those ani- mals feeding on it turn into dung. He belonged to that kind. What value does it have? For three days the pa- pers print big fat pictures, "He is the leader of such-and- such country, he's this and he's that." O Muslims, you're also shown in huge pictures, O princes, O kings. Ha, let's say, your uncles son, Shah-e Mardan is, warning you, is waking you up!
If greatness, was measured by weight, an ox is heavier than you. Otherwise, if it was measured by tallness, by length, there are giraffes. Giraffes are maybe three, maybe even five meters tall and while the ox may be he
