HONOR EVERYTHING RELATED TO HIM .صلى الله عليه وسلم

Fajr Prayer, Akbaba Dergah
As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh.
A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.
Wa ṣ-Salātu wa s-Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-Awwalīna wa l-Akhirīn. Madad yā RasūlAllāh, Madad yā Sādāti Aṣḥābi Rasūlillāh, Madad yā Mashāyikhinā, Dastūr Mawlana Shaykh Abdullāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistāni, Shaykh Muḥammad Nāẓim al- Ḥaqqānī. Madad.
Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.
Shukr to Allah جل جلاله, we are done with the month of Rajab and entered the month of Sha’ban. Many hidden and apparent events took place in Rajab. And this month is the month of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. It is a blessed and merciful month insha’Allah. May it be means for goodness insha’Allah.
The Tasbihat and Wazifah/Duties of Rajab are over. And now insha’Allah there are the Wazifah/Duties of the month of Sha’ban. And the greatest of it is to make Salawat on our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. If you were reciting 100 times, now you should recite 1,000 times. If you were reciting 1,000 times, recite 3,000 times now. The more you can do, you may do; there is permission, Shukr to Allah جل جلاله
This is the month of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. To honor him صلى الله عليه وسلم is to honor Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. A Salawat made on our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is heard by him صلى الله عليه وسلم, and he صلى الله عليه وسلم does the same and returns it for us. It is an indication that he صلى الله عليه وسلم is Hayy, he صلى الله عليه وسلم is alive. It shows the greatness of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم to the Ummah. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla has favored us so much by making us from his صلى الله عليه وسلم Ummah. Therefore, we have to honor his صلى الله عليه وسلم month and everything related to him.صلى الله عليه وسلم
It is said about our Holy Prophet,
“يُسْتَسْقَى الْغَمَامُ بِوَجْهِهِ الْكَرِيم”,
, “Rain is sought by virtue of his honorable face.” [The saying of Abu Talib] Even rain is granted by
Allah جل جلاله for his صلى الله عليه وسلم beautiful face. His صلى الله عليه وسلم miracles are everlasting. They are everlasting since he صلى الله عليه وسلم was born and until forever. To honor him صلى الله عليه وسلم is Fard for Muslims. Those who don’t honor him صلى الله عليه وسلم will perish, may Allah جل جلاله protect us. It is not a joke. Mawlana Shaykh Nazim used to say that it is not a joke. He used to always stand up when his صلى الله عليه وسلم name was mentioned despite his age, even though he was 90 years old. We cannot do like him. We have our flaws. No one can honor him صلى الله عليه وسلم like Mawlana Shaykh Nazim did. No one can do like him. May Allah جل جلاله forgive us for our shortcomings. May he have done it on our behalf as well, because no matter how much we talk and no matter how much we do, we cannot show as much respect to our Holy Prophet .صلى الله عليه وسلم
But what’s important is love him صلى الله عليه وسلم. The more you increase your love to our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, the more profit you attain. Our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said from his holy mouth, “ اَلْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ”. “Al-mar’u ma‘a man ahabb”, “A man will be with whom he loves“ [Hadith]. One of the holy Sahabah had cried and said, “We are together here in Dunya.” How lucky are they for being together with our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم in this world. They didn’t care about hunger, thirst or Jihad, as the greatest happiness was to be with him صلى الله عليه وسلم. So this Sahabah said, “I thought about this. We are together here. But when you pass away to Akhirah, we will be separated.” Our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “No. A person is with whom he loves”. So when you love our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم more, you will be with him صلى الله عليه وسلم in Akhirah, in paradise insha’Allah.
These good tidings came out from the holy mouth of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. It is the true word. It is certain. The shaytan is his صلى الله عليه وسلم biggest enemy. He صلى الله عليه وسلم asked him, “Who is your biggest enemy?” Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla had sent the shaytan to be asked this question. So he couldn’t lie and said “It’s you” to our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. Who doesn’t love our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is an enemy of Allah جل جلاله and an enemy of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. He is from the unfortunate people.
May Allah جل جلاله protect us. During these days, later on and always, the love of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is what we need the most. May Allah جل جلاله increase his صلى الله عليه وسلم love in us.
May this holy month bring goodness and be the means to goodness. May it be good for us, may it be protection for us and may it give strength to our Iman.
Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

CONSULTATION IS SUNNAH
04 March 2022/ 01 Sha’ban 1443
Fajr Prayer, Akbaba Dergah
As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh.
A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.
Wa ṣ-Salātu wa s-Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-Awwalīna wa l-Akhirīn. Madad yā RasūlAllāh, Madad yā Sādāti Aṣḥābi Rasūlillāh, Madad yā Mashāyikhinā, Dastūr Mawlana Shaykh Abdullāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistāni, Shaykh Muḥammad Nāẓim al- Ḥaqqānī. Madad.
Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.
A’ūdhu bi-Llāhi mina sh-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says
وَأَمْرُهُمْ شُورَىٰ
(Qur’ān 42:38).
‘Wa amruhum shūrā baynahum’, ‘And whose affair is [determined by] consultation among themselves.’
People should consult with each other and learn good things. Consultation is Sunnah. If you want to do something between you, to ask and inquire is Sunnah. Especially in groups, when a person is not alone and there is a responsibility for others, certainly, they should consult and do what is right.
Sometimes people think that they are doing the right thing. And when they consult, they see that there can be a better way than what they did, or what they think is right is actually wrong. So they revert from [doing] the wrong. It brings benefit to them and to others. People who rely on their egos and say “I know everything”, and those who do things without asking anyone can sometimes do the wrong thing in the end even if they know.
This applies to people of both low and high ranks. But of course, people who are in high ranks have counselors; they can consult with them as their responsibility is great. In order to lift the responsibility off their shoulders, they should consult. Otherwise, if you don’t consult but do wrong, that responsibility will be your fault. But when you consult and do wrong, it won’t be your fault, because you consulted and thought that you were doing right. It’s not important that it turned out wrong. But when you do something without consulting or asking anyone and it turns out wrong, it will be your fault then.
This is an important matter. As we said, the ego gets in this matter also – “I know everything. I don’t need to ask anyone”. It is an order, the order of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla
وَأَمْرُهُمْ شُورَىٰ
(Qur’ān 42:38).
’.’Wa amruhum shūrā’, ‘And whose affair is [determined by] consultation‘’
’ وَشَاوِرْهُمْ فِى ٱلْأَمْرِ
‘‘Wa-shāwirhum fī l-ʾamr‘ ‘And consult them in the affairs.’’
(Qur’ān 03:159).
Even though our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم was a Prophet, there was an order for him to consult. And who are you to claim that you know everything? Our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم was informed. He knows everything.
Nevertheless, he used to consult. Even in the Battle of Badr, he had consulted, and instead of moving to the place he had in his mind, our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم saw the place suggested in consultation as more appropriate. So he made arrangements for it and went there. He didn’t stay by saying, “I said so”.
Consultation is good. They used to say in old times that an advice or consultation is worth a camel. But now no one wants it, especially, people of the present time. They absolutely want to do everything according to their own minds. May Allah جل جلاله show them the right way insha’Allah.
May we always be on the right way insha’Allah.
Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
There are recited Khatms, Salawat, Surahs and Yasins. Brothers from all over the world have recited them.
We dedicate them firstly to our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, to his Ahl ul Bayt, Sahabah, to all the Anbiya, Awliya, Asfiya, to the souls of the Mashayikh, especially to our Shaykh Mawlana Shaykh Nazim, to Hajjah Anne and Hala Sultan, to the souls of all our ancestors.
May the good goals of those who have recited them be reached. May there be strength for their Iman. May they be happy here and hereafter. May they reach everything good they ask for. May the evil be gone insha’Allah.
Al-Fatiha.

HURRY UP IN REPENTANCE
03 March 2022/ 30 Rajab 1443
Fajr Prayer, Akbaba Dergah
As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh.
A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.
Wa ṣ-Salātu wa s-Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-Awwalīna wa l-Akhirīn. Madad yā RasūlAllāh, Madad yā Sādāti Aṣḥābi Rasūlillāh, Madad yā Mashāyikhinā, Dastūr Mawlana Shaykh Abdullāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistāni, Shaykh Muḥammad Nāẓim al- Ḥaqqānī. Madad.
Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.
“عَجِّلُوا بِالصَّلاةِ قَبْلَ الْفَوْتِ، وَعَجِّلُوا بِالتَّوْبَةِ قَبْلَ الْمَوْتِ”,
“Hurry up to perform prayer before the time passes, and hurry up in repentance before death comes.” [Hadith]. They always say this. The things that people should hurry up for are to pray before its time is up and to repent before you die.
Don’t say that you will pray later. If you miss the prayer, you won’t find its virtue anymore. And if you miss repentance, things will be completely hard for you. If people repent for all their sins during their lives, Allah جل جلاله will forgive them. They still have time. But if they die without repenting, their account is tough. Therefore, don’t say, “I am young, I will repent later” and hope for it. Allah جل جلاله knows. Many people visit others when they are sick, thinking that they are on their deathbed. But they don’t die, and go on with their disease, while a healthy person passes away. You never know when death comes. Therefore, to repent is a big favor and opportunity. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla granted it to us.
The Door of Repentance is open. But in the end of times, the Door of Repentance will be closed. It is one of its big signs. Even if you repent, it won’t be accepted. When will it happen? When the Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan is taken away and the sun rises from the West, the Door of Repentance will be closed. The Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan will be taken away, and then there will be Qiyamah. To repent and ask forgiveness is cleansing and beneficial for us. Shukr to Allah جل جلاله, He gave us such a chance to repent and ask forgiveness, and to get rid of our sins and burdens.
May Allah جل جلاله forgive us all. May we repent insha’Allah.

Love Me ﷺ More than Yourself
01 March 2022 / 28 Rajab 1443
Mawlana Sheikh Nazim Dergah - Lefke
As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh.
A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.
Wa ṣ-Salātu wa s-Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-Awwalīna wa l-Akhirīn.
Madad yā RasūlAllāh, Madad yā Sādāti Aṣḥābi Rasūlillāh, Madad yā Mashāyikhinā, Dastūr Mawlana Shaykh Abdullāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistāni, Shaykh Muḥammad Nāẓim al-Ḥaqqānī. Madad.
Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.
Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm,
وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَاكَ إِلَّا رَحْمَةً لِّلْعَالَمِينَ
(Qur’ān 21:107). ‘Wa-mā arsalnāka illā raḥmatan li-l-‘ālamīn, ‘And We have not sent you, [OMuhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds.’ Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam was sent by Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla as mercy to the worlds.
After the month of Rajab comes the holy month of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, the month of Sha‘bān. “Rajab is the month of Allāh ﷻ”, says our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. “Sha‘bān is my month and Ramaḍān is the month of my Ummah”, says our Holy Prophet ﷺ. These months are months full of Barakah. They are a favor and beauty to people from Allāh ﷻ. These are lunar months. They are according to the lunar calculation, not the solar calculation. All of the religious worship is performed in these months. Therefore, may it be blessed inshā’Allāh.
The month of our Holy Prophet ﷺ will be a means for mercy. We should know the value of our Holy Prophet ﷺ and remember him. Honor him as much as you can. There is nothing wrong in it. Don’t listen to anyone who says that you honor our Holy Prophet ﷺ too much or you praise him too much. Honor him as much as you want. Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says, “Muslims are different than Mu’mins/believers. Mu’mins are on a higher level than Muslims. Unless the person with strong Imān loves me more than his mother, father, himself and everything else, he can't reach true Imān.” There are many Muslims. They say “Lā ilāha illā Llāh” and then think that it is too much to honor our Holy Prophet ﷺ. They are people with weak Imān. When Imān is weak, may Allāh ﷻ protect us, they can lose their Imān completely.
Therefore, honoring our Holy Prophet ﷺ and loving our Holy Prophet ﷺ gives strength to our Imān. The stronger our Imān is, the better it is for us. It has no harm. You should strive for it. You should accept him. Always honor him. Make Salawāt and remember our Holy Prophet ﷺ in everything you do. Remember Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. We will attain his ﷺ Barakah and intercession. Without the intercession of our Holy Prophet ﷺ we are in trouble. We will be saved with his ﷺ intercession Allāh ﷻ willing.
They ask, “What should we do so that our deeds are accepted? And when are they not accepted?” Salawāt is the answer. When you make Salawāt on our Holy Prophet ﷺ, they will be accepted. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla accepts them. The rest are doubtful, whether they are accepted or not. Salawāt on our Holy Prophet ﷺ is accepted without any doubt, Shukr to Allāh ﷻ. We will be under Liwā’ ul-Hamd on the Day of Judgment. On the Day of Judgment, there will be no shade, no tree, no building, nothing. You will be under the burning heat of the sun. And the only shade will be under Liwā’ ul-Hamd and Arshu r-Raḥmān. The people who will be under it are the people beloved by our Holy Prophet ﷺ.
Inshā’Allāh we will be from them for the honor of this holy month.

Love Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم More and More
Ṣuḥbah of the 26th of February 2022.
A‘ūdhu bi-Llāhi mina sh-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.
Aṣ-ṣalātu wa-s- Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-awwalīna wa-l-ākhirīn. Madad yā Rasūla Llāh, madad yā Sādātī Aṣḥābi Rasūli Llāh, madad yā Mashāyikhanā, dastūr Mawlānā Shaykh ‘Abdu Llāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistānī, Shaykh Muḥammad Nāẓim al-Ḥaqqānī. Madad.
Ṭarīqatuna ṣ-ṣuḥbah, wa-l-khayru fi l-jam’iyyah.
Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. "Wa-‘allama ādama l-asmā’a kullahā" (2:31). Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘aẓīm.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla taught Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām all the sciences and knowledge. Afterwards, the angels questioned Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. After seeing the behaviour of mankind in this world, the angels asked Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla why He جل جلاله created these troublesome people, who were very bad. Everything else was good. Angels were dwelling in light and performing their worship. So they asked why Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām was created. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla gave all knowledge to Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām. So when He جل جلاله didn't answer their question, they understood He جل جلاله knows everything and they repented. They made sajdah to Allāh ‘Azza wa- Jalla. It means that Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla gave more knowledge to mankind compared with other creations.
People speak as if they discover things. However, every knowledge, everything has its time and hour. When the time comes, the door opens and that knowledge appears. It happens both physically and spiritually. Things that Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām was given to know are not even a drop in the ocean of knowledge of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, say Awliyā’ and Mashāyikh. Think for yourself how high mankind's level is. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla has favoured them. He granted all kinds of goodness to mankind but most of mankind does not appreciate it. As we said today, the rank of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is the highest from all perspectives. It is greater than that of all creatures. His صلى الله عليه وسلم level is the highest among the levels of angels, jinn, and people. And as we said, in order for him صلى الله عليه وسلم to be suitable for the presence of Allāh جل جلاله, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla gave him صلى الله عليه وسلم the level no one else can ever reach.
It is an honour for us. To be from the ummah of our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam is a great honour. It is a great virtue. No matter how much we thank Allāh جل جلاله, it isn't enough for being from the ummah of this holy one صلى الله عليه وسلم. Other prophets prayed to be from his صلى الله عليه وسلم ummah. Thanks to Allāh جل جلاله we show respect to him صلى الله عليه وسلم as much as we can. We love him صلى الله عليه وسلم. But certainly, no matter how much we respect him صلى الله عليه وسلم in shā’a Llāh, thanks to Allāh جل جلاله it is insufficient. We love him ,صلى الله عليه وسلم much we respect him And may Allāh جل جلاله let us love our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam even more.
Tomorrow evening we are reaching this holy night, in shā’a Llāh. Things done on this holy night, our du‘ā’ are accepted. If there are missed prayers, they should be performed. Also pray Ṣalatu t-Tasbīḥ, in shā’a Llāh. After Ṣalatu t-Tasbīḥ, pray two raka‘āt Ṣalatu l-Mi‘rāj. In each rak‘ah, recite twenty Sūratu l-Ikhlāṣ and make your du‘ā’. How much reward is given for this waẓīfah in the presence of Allāh جل جلاله is known only to Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Therefore, the more charity and good deeds you do, the more virtues they are on these holy days and nights. Tomorrow is Mi‘rāj. It is not tonight but on the night of Sunday to Monday. We should fast on Monday. The 27th starts from tomorrow sundown and lasts until the next sundown.
May Allāh bless it, in shā’a Llāh.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He جل جلاله said: Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. "Wa-‘allama ādama l- asmā’a kullahā" (2:31). Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He جل جلاله teach, give Sayyidunā Ādam ‘alayhi s- salām knowledge for what the most, more than other creature He جل جلاله give Ādam ‘alayhi s- salām this. Because angels, when they, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla create Ādam, they said, "What is wisdom of this?" Because they know, Allāh جل جلاله told them to, they know what will happen in earth. So what they was thinking, "What is, O our Lord, what is wisdom for this? This people, most of them, they are not good. They killing each other, they destroying cities, killing innocent, making thing against Allāh جل جلاله, worshipping idols." This, all this happen. They was wondering why Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla create this people.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla teach Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām knowledge. They didn't know about this knowledge. When they ask them, they couldn't answer. Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām he answer for this. For this, knowledge of human being more than other creature, even angel or jinn, other. Human being they are more knowledgeable. But this is coming by time. When time, Allāh جل جلاله give permission to open this knowledge, every time opening. A second time opening. Little by little, so people, human being they thought, "We are learning by ourself. We are, first we find fire. We find, after find other thing." This is not finding. Only, Allāh جل جلاله when He جل جلاله open, give permission to learn this. But they, already they was learned before. No, no problem but for more and more and more there is time and after this coming new thing. Next time, maybe hundred years, another knowledge, another knowledge until nowadays...
Even the knowledge of who has knowledge from Divine Presence sometimes they was using this. Like when Sulaymān ‘alayhi s-salām, he ask for who can bring throne of Bilqīs from Saba’. One of jinn he said, "Okay maybe I bring you in two hours or more." And one, he said, "I will bring [it to] you before you open and close your eyes." And it was there. This was human being. He has knowledge from heavenly knowledge. So you can imagine this before four thousand year ago they can do this. So they have knowledge. Not like our this day people they thought they are know, learn by themself. No. They have knowledge but time, need a time and permission to open.
And nowadays, they have many thing. All this with permission and time coming to open this knowledge. But this knowledge is nothing. Even knowledge of Sayyidunā Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām compared to knowledge of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, it is even not one drop from ocean. So you can imagine how great Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. And we are honourable to be his صلى الله عليه وسلم nation. This is most honourable thing. Every what we can thank Allah جل جلاله , for this , not enough for us because He جل جلاله make him صلى الله عليه وسلم in His جل جلاله Divine Presence and give him صلى الله عليه وسلم whole knowledge of beginning and end. Now in this maybe fifty year there was the thing happen nobody can imagine. It is nothing compared to knowledge of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. We are not saying for knowledge of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Knowledge of Allāh جل جلاله cannot be imagined even.
So, al-ḥamdu liLlāh, we are thanking Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla for this, for His جل جلاله give us to be nation of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Because many prophets they was wishing to be one from his صلى الله عليه وسلم nation, not to be prophet even. They know the value. They know how it is honourable to be with him صلى الله عليه وسلم. Al-ḥamdu liLlāh we are, we thanking Allāh جل جلاله and we try to be, try to be doing something for thank Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. But it is not enough for us this thank but all what we have, we have love of Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. In shā’a Llāh it is good. In shā’a Llāh more and more love Allāh جل جلاله give us, in shā’a Llāh.
In shā’a Llāh for this tomorrow, In shā’a Llāh night of Mi‘rāj – Isrā’ wa-l-Mi‘rāj which Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, he صلى الله عليه وسلم journey of night to Quds, Jerusalem and from there to heaven to Divine Presence of Allāh جل جلاله which nobody know how and what. And what we don't know anything how Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla speak to Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, from which... There is no time, no place. This is beyond our mind, beyond our thinking. So just we know, Allāh He جل جلاله make Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam highest place.
So tomorrow it is from maghrib until next maghrib, from Sunday maghrib until Monday maghrib. This night is Night Journey night. Twenty seven it is Monday, also holy day. So in this day we must fast and give charity and do what we can do. Tomorrow night also there is as much you can pray. You can read. You can pray and we pray, in shā’a Llāh, Ṣalātu t- Tasābīḥ and after this two raka‘āt also, each rak‘ah twenty time of Ikhlāṣu sh-Sharīf each rak‘ah. After you pray, we will make du'ā', in shā’a Llāh. And Allāh جل جلاله accept.
Allah جل جلاله make our love more and more for Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Allāh جل جلاله Allāh keep us safe from fitnah, from shayṭān, in shā’a Llāh.

Shukr to Allah جل جلاله, we are done with the month of Rajab and entered the month of Sha’ban. Many hidden and apparent events took place in Rajab. And this month is the month of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. It is a blessed and merciful month insha’Allah. May it be means for goodness insha’Allah.
The Tasbihat and Wazifah/Duties of Rajab are over. And now insha’Allah there are the Wazifah/Duties of the month of Sha’ban. And the greatest of it is to make Salawat on our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. If you were reciting 100 times, now you should recite 1,000 times. If you were reciting 1,000 times, recite 3,000 times now. The more you can do, you may do; there is permission, Shukr to Allah جل جلاله
This is the month of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. To honor him صلى الله عليه وسلم is to honor Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. A Salawat made on our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is heard by him صلى الله عليه وسلم, and he صلى الله عليه وسلم does the same and returns it for us. It is an indication that he صلى الله عليه وسلم is Hayy, he صلى الله عليه وسلم is alive. It shows the greatness of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم to the Ummah. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla has favored us so much by making us from his صلى الله عليه وسلم Ummah. Therefore, we have to honor his صلى الله عليه وسلم month and everything related to him.صلى الله عليه وسلم
It is said about our Holy Prophet,
“يُسْتَسْقَى الْغَمَامُ بِوَجْهِهِ الْكَرِيم”,
, “Rain is sought by virtue of his honorable face.” [The saying of Abu Talib] Even rain is granted by
Allah جل جلاله for his صلى الله عليه وسلم beautiful face. His صلى الله عليه وسلم miracles are everlasting. They are everlasting since he صلى الله عليه وسلم was born and until forever. To honor him صلى الله عليه وسلم is Fard for Muslims. Those who don’t honor him صلى الله عليه وسلم will perish, may Allah جل جلاله protect us. It is not a joke. Mawlana Shaykh Nazim used to say that it is not a joke. He used to always stand up when his صلى الله عليه وسلم name was mentioned despite his age, even though he was 90 years old. We cannot do like him. We have our flaws. No one can honor him صلى الله عليه وسلم like Mawlana Shaykh Nazim did. No one can do like him. May Allah جل جلاله forgive us for our shortcomings. May he have done it on our behalf as well, because no matter how much we talk and no matter how much we do, we cannot show as much respect to our Holy Prophet .صلى الله عليه وسلم
But what’s important is love him صلى الله عليه وسلم. The more you increase your love to our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, the more profit you attain. Our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said from his holy mouth, “ اَلْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ”. “Al-mar’u ma‘a man ahabb”, “A man will be with whom he loves“ [Hadith]. One of the holy Sahabah had cried and said, “We are together here in Dunya.” How lucky are they for being together with our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم in this world. They didn’t care about hunger, thirst or Jihad, as the greatest happiness was to be with him صلى الله عليه وسلم. So this Sahabah said, “I thought about this. We are together here. But when you pass away to Akhirah, we will be separated.” Our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “No. A person is with whom he loves”. So when you love our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم more, you will be with him صلى الله عليه وسلم in Akhirah, in paradise insha’Allah.
These good tidings came out from the holy mouth of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. It is the true word. It is certain. The shaytan is his صلى الله عليه وسلم biggest enemy. He صلى الله عليه وسلم asked him, “Who is your biggest enemy?” Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla had sent the shaytan to be asked this question. So he couldn’t lie and said “It’s you” to our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. Who doesn’t love our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is an enemy of Allah جل جلاله and an enemy of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. He is from the unfortunate people.
May Allah جل جلاله protect us. During these days, later on and always, the love of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is what we need the most. May Allah جل جلاله increase his صلى الله عليه وسلم love in us.
May this holy month bring goodness and be the means to goodness. May it be good for us, may it be protection for us and may it give strength to our Iman.

CONSULTATION IS SUNNAH

Fajr Prayer, Akbaba Dergah
As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh.
A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.
Wa ṣ-Salātu wa s-Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-Awwalīna wa l-Akhirīn. Madad yā RasūlAllāh, Madad yā Sādāti Aṣḥābi Rasūlillāh, Madad yā Mashāyikhinā, Dastūr Mawlana Shaykh Abdullāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistāni, Shaykh Muḥammad Nāẓim al- Ḥaqqānī. Madad.
Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.
A’ūdhu bi-Llāhi mina sh-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says
وَأَمْرُهُمْ شُورَىٰ
(Qur’ān 42:38).
‘Wa amruhum shūrā baynahum’, ‘And whose affair is [determined by] consultation among themselves.’
People should consult with each other and learn good things. Consultation is Sunnah. If you want to do something between you, to ask and inquire is Sunnah. Especially in groups, when a person is not alone and there is a responsibility for others, certainly, they should consult and do what is right.
Sometimes people think that they are doing the right thing. And when they consult, they see that there can be a better way than what they did, or what they think is right is actually wrong. So they revert from [doing] the wrong. It brings benefit to them and to others. People who rely on their egos and say “I know everything”, and those who do things without asking anyone can sometimes do the wrong thing in the end even if they know.
This applies to people of both low and high ranks. But of course, people who are in high ranks have counselors; they can consult with them as their responsibility is great. In order to lift the responsibility off their shoulders, they should consult. Otherwise, if you don’t consult but do wrong, that responsibility will be your fault. But when you consult and do wrong, it won’t be your fault, because you consulted and thought that you were doing right. It’s not important that it turned out wrong. But when you do something without consulting or asking anyone and it turns out wrong, it will be your fault then.
This is an important matter. As we said, the ego gets in this matter also – “I know everything. I don’t need to ask anyone”. It is an order, the order of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla
وَأَمْرُهُمْ شُورَىٰ
(Qur’ān 42:38).
’.’Wa amruhum shūrā’, ‘And whose affair is [determined by] consultation‘’
’ وَشَاوِرْهُمْ فِى ٱلْأَمْرِ
‘‘Wa-shāwirhum fī l-ʾamr‘ ‘And consult them in the affairs.’’
(Qur’ān 03:159).
Even though our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم was a Prophet, there was an order for him to consult. And who are you to claim that you know everything? Our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم was informed. He knows everything.
Nevertheless, he used to consult. Even in the Battle of Badr, he had consulted, and instead of moving to the place he had in his mind, our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم saw the place suggested in consultation as more appropriate. So he made arrangements for it and went there. He didn’t stay by saying, “I said so”.
Consultation is good. They used to say in old times that an advice or consultation is worth a camel. But now no one wants it, especially, people of the present time. They absolutely want to do everything according to their own minds. May Allah جل جلاله show them the right way insha’Allah.
May we always be on the right way insha’Allah.
Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
There are recited Khatms, Salawat, Surahs and Yasins. Brothers from all over the world have recited them.
We dedicate them firstly to our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, to his Ahl ul Bayt, Sahabah, to all the Anbiya, Awliya, Asfiya, to the souls of the Mashayikh, especially to our Shaykh Mawlana Shaykh Nazim, to Hajjah Anne and Hala Sultan, to the souls of all our ancestors.
May the good goals of those who have recited them be reached. May there be strength for their Iman. May they be happy here and hereafter. May they reach everything good they ask for. May the evil be gone insha’Allah.
Al-Fatiha.

HURRY UP IN REPENTANCE
03 March 2022/ 30 Rajab 1443
Fajr Prayer, Akbaba Dergah
As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh.
A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.
Wa ṣ-Salātu wa s-Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-Awwalīna wa l-Akhirīn. Madad yā RasūlAllāh, Madad yā Sādāti Aṣḥābi Rasūlillāh, Madad yā Mashāyikhinā, Dastūr Mawlana Shaykh Abdullāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistāni, Shaykh Muḥammad Nāẓim al- Ḥaqqānī. Madad.
Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.
“عَجِّلُوا بِالصَّلاةِ قَبْلَ الْفَوْتِ، وَعَجِّلُوا بِالتَّوْبَةِ قَبْلَ الْمَوْتِ”,
“Hurry up to perform prayer before the time passes, and hurry up in repentance before death comes.” [Hadith]. They always say this. The things that people should hurry up for are to pray before its time is up and to repent before you die.
Don’t say that you will pray later. If you miss the prayer, you won’t find its virtue anymore. And if you miss repentance, things will be completely hard for you. If people repent for all their sins during their lives, Allah جل جلاله will forgive them. They still have time. But if they die without repenting, their account is tough. Therefore, don’t say, “I am young, I will repent later” and hope for it. Allah جل جلاله knows. Many people visit others when they are sick, thinking that they are on their deathbed. But they don’t die, and go on with their disease, while a healthy person passes away. You never know when death comes. Therefore, to repent is a big favor and opportunity. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla granted it to us.
The Door of Repentance is open. But in the end of times, the Door of Repentance will be closed. It is one of its big signs. Even if you repent, it won’t be accepted. When will it happen? When the Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan is taken away and the sun rises from the West, the Door of Repentance will be closed. The Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan will be taken away, and then there will be Qiyamah. To repent and ask forgiveness is cleansing and beneficial for us. Shukr to Allah جل جلاله, He gave us such a chance to repent and ask forgiveness, and to get rid of our sins and burdens.
May Allah جل جلاله forgive us all. May we repent insha’Allah.

Love Me ﷺ More than Yourself

Mawlana Sheikh Nazim Dergah - Lefke
As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh.
A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.
Wa ṣ-Salātu wa s-Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-Awwalīna wa l-Akhirīn.
Madad yā RasūlAllāh, Madad yā Sādāti Aṣḥābi Rasūlillāh, Madad yā Mashāyikhinā, Dastūr Mawlana Shaykh Abdullāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistāni, Shaykh Muḥammad Nāẓim al-Ḥaqqānī. Madad.
Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.
Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm,
وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَاكَ إِلَّا رَحْمَةً لِّلْعَالَمِينَ
(Qur’ān 21:107). ‘Wa-mā arsalnāka illā raḥmatan li-l-‘ālamīn, ‘And We have not sent you, [OMuhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds.’ Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam was sent by Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla as mercy to the worlds.
After the month of Rajab comes the holy month of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, the month of Sha‘bān. “Rajab is the month of Allāh ﷻ”, says our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. “Sha‘bān is my month and Ramaḍān is the month of my Ummah”, says our Holy Prophet ﷺ. These months are months full of Barakah. They are a favor and beauty to people from Allāh ﷻ. These are lunar months. They are according to the lunar calculation, not the solar calculation. All of the religious worship is performed in these months. Therefore, may it be blessed inshā’Allāh.
The month of our Holy Prophet ﷺ will be a means for mercy. We should know the value of our Holy Prophet ﷺ and remember him. Honor him as much as you can. There is nothing wrong in it. Don’t listen to anyone who says that you honor our Holy Prophet ﷺ too much or you praise him too much. Honor him as much as you want. Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says, “Muslims are different than Mu’mins/believers. Mu’mins are on a higher level than Muslims. Unless the person with strong Imān loves me more than his mother, father, himself and everything else, he can't reach true Imān.” There are many Muslims. They say “Lā ilāha illā Llāh” and then think that it is too much to honor our Holy Prophet ﷺ. They are people with weak Imān. When Imān is weak, may Allāh ﷻ protect us, they can lose their Imān completely.
Therefore, honoring our Holy Prophet ﷺ and loving our Holy Prophet ﷺ gives strength to our Imān. The stronger our Imān is, the better it is for us. It has no harm. You should strive for it. You should accept him. Always honor him. Make Salawāt and remember our Holy Prophet ﷺ in everything you do. Remember Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. We will attain his ﷺ Barakah and intercession. Without the intercession of our Holy Prophet ﷺ we are in trouble. We will be saved with his ﷺ intercession Allāh ﷻ willing.
They ask, “What should we do so that our deeds are accepted? And when are they not accepted?” Salawāt is the answer. When you make Salawāt on our Holy Prophet ﷺ, they will be accepted. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla accepts them. The rest are doubtful, whether they are accepted or not. Salawāt on our Holy Prophet ﷺ is accepted without any doubt, Shukr to Allāh ﷻ. We will be under Liwā’ ul-Hamd on the Day of Judgment. On the Day of Judgment, there will be no shade, no tree, no building, nothing. You will be under the burning heat of the sun. And the only shade will be under Liwā’ ul-Hamd and Arshu r-Raḥmān. The people who will be under it are the people beloved by our Holy Prophet ﷺ.
Inshā’Allāh we will be from them for the honor of this holy month.

Love Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم More and More
Ṣuḥbah of the 26th of February 2022.
A‘ūdhu bi-Llāhi mina sh-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.
Aṣ-ṣalātu wa-s- Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-awwalīna wa-l-ākhirīn. Madad yā Rasūla Llāh, madad yā Sādātī Aṣḥābi Rasūli Llāh, madad yā Mashāyikhanā, dastūr Mawlānā Shaykh ‘Abdu Llāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistānī, Shaykh Muḥammad Nāẓim al-Ḥaqqānī. Madad.
Ṭarīqatuna ṣ-ṣuḥbah, wa-l-khayru fi l-jam’iyyah.
Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. "Wa-‘allama ādama l-asmā’a kullahā" (2:31). Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘aẓīm.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla taught Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām all the sciences and knowledge. Afterwards, the angels questioned Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. After seeing the behaviour of mankind in this world, the angels asked Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla why He جل جلاله created these troublesome people, who were very bad. Everything else was good. Angels were dwelling in light and performing their worship. So they asked why Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām was created. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla gave all knowledge to Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām. So when He جل جلاله didn't answer their question, they understood He جل جلاله knows everything and they repented. They made sajdah to Allāh ‘Azza wa- Jalla. It means that Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla gave more knowledge to mankind compared with other creations.
People speak as if they discover things. However, every knowledge, everything has its time and hour. When the time comes, the door opens and that knowledge appears. It happens both physically and spiritually. Things that Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām was given to know are not even a drop in the ocean of knowledge of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, say Awliyā’ and Mashāyikh. Think for yourself how high mankind's level is. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla has favoured them. He granted all kinds of goodness to mankind but most of mankind does not appreciate it. As we said today, the rank of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is the highest from all perspectives. It is greater than that of all creatures. His صلى الله عليه وسلم level is the highest among the levels of angels, jinn, and people. And as we said, in order for him صلى الله عليه وسلم to be suitable for the presence of Allāh جل جلاله, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla gave him صلى الله عليه وسلم the level no one else can ever reach.
It is an honour for us. To be from the ummah of our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam is a great honour. It is a great virtue. No matter how much we thank Allāh جل جلاله, it isn't enough for being from the ummah of this holy one صلى الله عليه وسلم. Other prophets prayed to be from his صلى الله عليه وسلم ummah. Thanks to Allāh جل جلاله we show respect to him صلى الله عليه وسلم as much as we can. We love him صلى الله عليه وسلم. But certainly, no matter how much we respect him صلى الله عليه وسلم in shā’a Llāh, thanks to Allāh جل جلاله it is insufficient. We love him ,صلى الله عليه وسلم much we respect him And may Allāh جل جلاله let us love our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam even more.
Tomorrow evening we are reaching this holy night, in shā’a Llāh. Things done on this holy night, our du‘ā’ are accepted. If there are missed prayers, they should be performed. Also pray Ṣalatu t-Tasbīḥ, in shā’a Llāh. After Ṣalatu t-Tasbīḥ, pray two raka‘āt Ṣalatu l-Mi‘rāj. In each rak‘ah, recite twenty Sūratu l-Ikhlāṣ and make your du‘ā’. How much reward is given for this waẓīfah in the presence of Allāh جل جلاله is known only to Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Therefore, the more charity and good deeds you do, the more virtues they are on these holy days and nights. Tomorrow is Mi‘rāj. It is not tonight but on the night of Sunday to Monday. We should fast on Monday. The 27th starts from tomorrow sundown and lasts until the next sundown.
May Allāh bless it, in shā’a Llāh.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He جل جلاله said: Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. "Wa-‘allama ādama l- asmā’a kullahā" (2:31). Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla He جل جلاله teach, give Sayyidunā Ādam ‘alayhi s- salām knowledge for what the most, more than other creature He جل جلاله give Ādam ‘alayhi s- salām this. Because angels, when they, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla create Ādam, they said, "What is wisdom of this?" Because they know, Allāh جل جلاله told them to, they know what will happen in earth. So what they was thinking, "What is, O our Lord, what is wisdom for this? This people, most of them, they are not good. They killing each other, they destroying cities, killing innocent, making thing against Allāh جل جلاله, worshipping idols." This, all this happen. They was wondering why Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla create this people.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla teach Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām knowledge. They didn't know about this knowledge. When they ask them, they couldn't answer. Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām he answer for this. For this, knowledge of human being more than other creature, even angel or jinn, other. Human being they are more knowledgeable. But this is coming by time. When time, Allāh جل جلاله give permission to open this knowledge, every time opening. A second time opening. Little by little, so people, human being they thought, "We are learning by ourself. We are, first we find fire. We find, after find other thing." This is not finding. Only, Allāh جل جلاله when He جل جلاله open, give permission to learn this. But they, already they was learned before. No, no problem but for more and more and more there is time and after this coming new thing. Next time, maybe hundred years, another knowledge, another knowledge until nowadays...
Even the knowledge of who has knowledge from Divine Presence sometimes they was using this. Like when Sulaymān ‘alayhi s-salām, he ask for who can bring throne of Bilqīs from Saba’. One of jinn he said, "Okay maybe I bring you in two hours or more." And one, he said, "I will bring [it to] you before you open and close your eyes." And it was there. This was human being. He has knowledge from heavenly knowledge. So you can imagine this before four thousand year ago they can do this. So they have knowledge. Not like our this day people they thought they are know, learn by themself. No. They have knowledge but time, need a time and permission to open.
And nowadays, they have many thing. All this with permission and time coming to open this knowledge. But this knowledge is nothing. Even knowledge of Sayyidunā Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām compared to knowledge of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, it is even not one drop from ocean. So you can imagine how great Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. And we are honourable to be his صلى الله عليه وسلم nation. This is most honourable thing. Every what we can thank Allah جل جلاله , for this , not enough for us because He جل جلاله make him صلى الله عليه وسلم in His جل جلاله Divine Presence and give him صلى الله عليه وسلم whole knowledge of beginning and end. Now in this maybe fifty year there was the thing happen nobody can imagine. It is nothing compared to knowledge of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. We are not saying for knowledge of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Knowledge of Allāh جل جلاله cannot be imagined even.
So, al-ḥamdu liLlāh, we are thanking Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla for this, for His جل جلاله give us to be nation of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Because many prophets they was wishing to be one from his صلى الله عليه وسلم nation, not to be prophet even. They know the value. They know how it is honourable to be with him صلى الله عليه وسلم. Al-ḥamdu liLlāh we are, we thanking Allāh جل جلاله and we try to be, try to be doing something for thank Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. But it is not enough for us this thank but all what we have, we have love of Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. In shā’a Llāh it is good. In shā’a Llāh more and more love Allāh جل جلاله give us, in shā’a Llāh.
In shā’a Llāh for this tomorrow, In shā’a Llāh night of Mi‘rāj – Isrā’ wa-l-Mi‘rāj which Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, he صلى الله عليه وسلم journey of night to Quds, Jerusalem and from there to heaven to Divine Presence of Allāh جل جلاله which nobody know how and what. And what we don't know anything how Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla speak to Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, from which... There is no time, no place. This is beyond our mind, beyond our thinking. So just we know, Allāh He جل جلاله make Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam highest place.
So tomorrow it is from maghrib until next maghrib, from Sunday maghrib until Monday maghrib. This night is Night Journey night. Twenty seven it is Monday, also holy day. So in this day we must fast and give charity and do what we can do. Tomorrow night also there is as much you can pray. You can read. You can pray and we pray, in shā’a Llāh, Ṣalātu t- Tasābīḥ and after this two raka‘āt also, each rak‘ah twenty time of Ikhlāṣu sh-Sharīf each rak‘ah. After you pray, we will make du'ā', in shā’a Llāh. And Allāh جل جلاله accept.
Allah جل جلاله make our love more and more for Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Allāh جل جلاله Allāh keep us safe from fitnah, from shayṭān, in shā’a Llāh.
Wa-min Allāhi t-t
