person on the way of Allah جل جلاله is a lucky person. To keep on this way is a great favor, a great virtue.
They ask what they should do. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla showed us this way and the beauty of this way through our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. It is of benefit for everything. It is beneficial for life in this world, and the biggest benefit and profit is for Akhirah. People on this way reach eternal happiness.
This way has its method and pillars. Everything is clear and transparent. Nothing is hidden on this way. If something is hidden, that means it is not good. This way is the way of love, the way of beauty, the way of service and the way of happiness. People on this way are lucky people from all perspectives. But of course, shaytan doesn’t leave them. He certainly bothers those who are on this way. He wants to cheat them as much as he can without giving a chance.
The shaytan told Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla, “I will take these people out of the way. And I will take them to hell together with me.Therefore, he attacks people who are on the right way. He targets them, for they are his enemies. Otherwise, he doesn’t attack people who are with him; saying, “Good, they are together already.” You look and see that they have their Jama’ah and communities, but they have no disputes. But people who are on the way of Allah جل جلاله and on the right way are certainly attacked. He puts Fitnah among them; he doesn’t try to but literally does it. And you see that people who are on the right way always have disputes and Fitnah among them. But in general, the majority is with them. Even if divided, they are the majority with the permission of Allah جل جلاله. This way is the way that they won, and shaytan loses.
Nevertheless, as we said, many people want to do goodness but cannot. When people come together, he immediately divides them and brings up dispute between them. He brings up something bad and divides them. People ask why it happens so. It is because you are fighting with the enemy. You don’t deal with those who are together with the enemy. He doesn’t care about someone who is like him or worse than him. There’s no need to deal with them. It is like, “A bird in the hand.”
People think that this way is difficult. Whatever is difficult has as many rewards. They say, “We struggle while praying and so on”. If you struggle, you will have much more rewards. Therefore, as we are on this way, people get tested and there may be difficulties. You should not pay attention to them. You should not care about them, for we are on the way of Haqq/ truth, Shukr to Allah جل جلاله. May Allah جل جلاله make it everlasting.
May Allah جل جلاله help us insha’Allah. May He جل جلاله always be with us and may we be with Him جل جلاله insha’Allah.

HONOR THE MONTHS OF HAJJ
31 May 2022/ 01 Dhu l-Qiʻdah 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.
Three of the Hurum/Sacred months, the months of Hajj have begun today insha’Allah. It is the beginning of the month of Dhu l-Qi’dah today. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla says,
إِنَّ عِدَّةَ ٱلشُّهُورِ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ ٱثْنَا عَشَرَ شَهْرًا فِى كِتَـٰبِ ٱللَّهِ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ مِنْهَآ أَرْبَعَةٌ حُرُمٌ ۚ
‘’Inna ‘Iddata Ash-Shuhūri ‘Inda Allāhi Athnā ‘Ashara Shahrāan Fī Kitābi Allāhi Yawma Khalaqa s-Samāwāti Wa l-Arda Minhā Arba’atun Hurum’’,
‘‘Indeed, the number of months with Allah is twelve [lunar] months in the register of Allah [from] the day He created the heavens and the earth; of these, four are Sacred.’’
(Qur’ān 09:36).
Twelve months; Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is the one who created everything. And Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla calculated and divided everything. He جل جلاله divided a year into twelve months. And four of the twelve months are Hurum/ Sacred months. One of them is Rajab, and then there are Dhu l-Qi’dah, Dhu l-Hijjah and Muharram.
These months are honored months. In order for people to have goodness, war is forbidden during these months. War is forbidden, but you cannot sit still against those who attack you. You should defend yourself and fight against those who start a war against you. You must ward them off.
Wherever there is danger, you must attack and defend yourself. You must defend Muslims and the Ummah, as it is your duty. And the duty is important.
Muslims have forgotten many things. They ask what should be done. Muslims are unaware of many things, because the Dunya has taken hold of them. Their hearts and minds are filled with it, and they don’t think about anything but Dunya; by saying “This has become expensive, that is cheap. This is good, that is bad”. They are not valuing the important things that Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla gave importance to.
These holy months are beginning today. They are the months of Hajj by the wisdom of Allah جل جلاله. People of old times used to show respect to them. And even if they couldn’t go to Hajj, they would keep honoring these months. As we said, by the wisdom of Allah جل جلاله, everything is done in calculation by Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. Certainly, everything has wisdom and benefit.
Therefore, may Allah جل جلاله bless these holy months for us. May it be good and full of Barakah insha’Allah. May there be victory for Islam. May it be the means for the coming of the Sahib insha’Allah.
May Allah جل جلاله make us steadfast on this way insha’Allah.

DON’T GIVE YOUR RIZQ TO SAFEEH
30 May 2022/ 29 Shawwal 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.
Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
وَلَا تُؤْتُوا۟ ٱلسُّفَهَآءَ أَمْوَٰلَكُمُ ٱلَّتِى جَعَلَ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمْ قِيَـٰمًا وَٱرْزُقُوهُمْ فِيهَا وَٱكْسُوهُمْ وَقُولُوا۟ لَهُمْ قَوْلًا مَّعْرُوفًا
(Qur’ān 04:05).
‘‘Wa lā tu’utū s-Sufahā’a ‘amwālakumu l-llatī ja’ala Allāhu lakum qiyāmāan wa Rzuqūhum fīhā wa ksūhum wa qūlū lahum qawlāan ma’rūfāan’’
‘‘And do not give the foolish your property, which Allah has made a means of sustenance for you, but provide for them with it and clothe them and speak to them words of appropriate kindness.’’
Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla says, “Don’t give your money and property away to Safeeh (profligate) people. Keep them.” “May they be a trust for you instead”, says Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. That is a Rizq from Allah جل جلاله. We should be careful with that. Generosity is one thing, but usage or care is another thing.
A Safeeh is a person who doesn’t value others’ goods, who doesn’t know how to handle them.
His property can be handled by his relatives. In order for it not to be wasted and squandered, they should keep it. They can give him as much as he needs, and give the rest slowly and step by step.
If he comes back to his senses and takes care of his property, it can be returned to him.
Most of the world has become such the Safeeh type.
Nevertheless, we have to keep the order of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla so that people don’t have any loss but have benefit.
Also, we are living in the end of times. People are saying, “We don’t know how to do it” and giving it to others. But others are cheating them by telling them that they will do it.
Whereas, some people cheat people out of stupidity, and some out of craftiness. “I want to use it and will return it after I earn profit. Let me do business with your money.” You must say, “No, my brother, if you had known it, you wouldn’t have needed me.
Mind your own business.” You should say the same to the crafty one. You shouldn’t believe
him. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla says to be careful for both yourself and others.
Rizq is from Allah جل جلاله. Do not give it away to this one and that one. Take care of your Rizq and property by yourself.
We are living in such an age that since the time of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم until now, people have changed a lot. This Ayah is always applicable. Be careful. Don’t give away to others by pretending to be generous or in order to earn more profit. Guarantee yourself. Guarantee your work and business.
Most of the time they used to come to Mawlana Shaykh Nazim and complain, “I gave this much money to this man, but he didn’t return it.” Mawlana Shaykh Nazim had a good reply, “Are you asking for it now? You should have asked from the beginning. Don’t ask now.”
There was a crafty man who took two mentally abnormal men as guarantors to a bank. He got the money from the bank. And then, the bank manager came to Mawlana Shaykh Nazim saying that this man did so. He said, “Why didn’t you ask him before?” He used to answer as such most of the time.
Therefore, Mashayikh don’t want it either. If you want to do something, you must do your research and then start it.
May Allah جل جلاله help us. May Allah جل جلاله protect us. May Allah جل جلاله give us good Halal Rizq. A person who thinks that he gets profit in such a way doesn’t earn anything. He is losing and putting others in loss too. May Allah جل جلاله improve us.
May Allah جل جلاله give mind and understanding to people.

STRENGTH IS IN OVERCOMING ANGER
29 May 2022/ 28 Shawwal 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.
Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam says, “Who is the strong one? Is it the person who beats people and defeats this one and that one?” “It is not”, says our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam.
The strong person is the one who overcomes his anger. To defeat it is more difficult than defeating another person. Therefore, when people follow their egos, that doesn’t come to their minds. They think, “Whoever comes, I will defeat him. Whoever makes me angry, I will beat him up”. They are controlled by their egos and captured by their egos.
Who controls his anger is the one who is strong. Who cannot control his anger, a person who shows his anger to people or to those who make him angry by beating them has a weak willpower. When the willpower is weak, a person cannot be considered strong.
A further level is when someone forgives the person he got angry with; that is more acceptable in the presence of Allah جل جلاله
Everything people of the present time teach is to be angry, to be resentful and to demand your rights. That is the game of shaytan. The more they do so, the more loss they get. More loss comes to everything around them. “Who starts up with anger sits down with loss”, a proverb of ours says. Therefore, we should control it.
Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam says:
“إِنَّمَا الْعِلْمُ بِالتَّعَلُّمِ، وَإِنَّمَا الْحِلْمُ بِالتَّحَلُّمِ”
“Knowledge is only by learning, and forbearance is only by exerting oneself to be forbearing”. Knowledge is attained by learning. And it is said,
“الْحَلِيمُ سَلِيمٌ”
“The forbearing one is [always] in a good state.”
A person who captures and controls his anger is forbearing. A person who controls his anger is an acceptable person in the presence of Allah جل جلاله. May Allah جل جلاله protect us.
It is difficult. As we said, as our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم says, it is a difficult matter. And whoever controls it becomes strong. Those who cannot control it, even if they say that they are strong, they are not strong. They are captured by their egos and captured by their anger. May Allah جل جلاله protect us.
May Allah جل جلاله help us insha’Allah.

EXCEPT A LITTLE FROM KNOWLEDGE

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.
The Greatness and Magnificence of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is beyond people’s minds. People of the present time think that they are important ones by learning a few things in this world. The Power and Greatness of Allah جل جلاله are much beyond the minds of people. Their minds cannot fathom the Greatness and Magnificence of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla.
We are witnessing now that people think that they know everything and that everything is under their control. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla has shown their weakness numerous times. Still, they are not taking a lesson. Whoever doesn’t take a lesson means that he has a mind deficiency; because there are many things that people think they know, but they don’t know much.
BismiLlahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim:
وَمَآ أُوتِيتُم مِّنَ ٱلْعِلْمِ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا
‘’Wa mā ūtītum min al- ‘ilmi illa qalīla’’,
‘‘And mankind have not been given of knowledge except a little.’’ (Qur’ān 17:85).
Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla says, “You have just a little from knowledge. What is given to you is very little”. With that little, people are giving themselves too much value by saying “We know a lot”. You know very little. There is too much that you don’t know. What you know is very little, and what you don’t know is a lot.
The knowledge Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla gave to people is for people to know Him جل جلاله But what are they doing? They are doing the opposite of that. They are denying Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla and saying, “There is no such thing”. Many people understand their weakness afterwards. As soon as something little happens, their weakness appears. But what can you do?
May Allah جل جلاله make us among those who know. May He جل جلاله give us from the true knowledge. May He جل جلاله give us from “Ilmi Ladun” – the knowledge from the presence of Allah جل جلاله that lets you know Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla, knowledge that is useful insha’Allah. May He جل جلاله grant us all this knowledge.
May He جل جلاله make us from those who see the truth and believe in the truth, not from the denying ones. They are leading people to denial by telling them that it is right. They are harming them.
May Allah جل جلاله give us from the knowledge that is useful insha’Allah.

MIDDLE IS BEST

Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.
خَيْرُ الْأُمُورِ الْوَسَط
Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam says that the middle of everything is best. Exaggerating is not good, says our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam.
You must go on the middle way in everything. Don’t try to perform a lot of worship all at once, because afterwards you won’t be able to do it at all. It will be hard. But people who keep in the middle can keep it going. It is so for all aspects, not only for praying and worshiping. It is the same in worldly matters as well. You must go in the middle. It is not good to lean towards this side or that side. People who go on the middle way are comfortable.
People of the present time call it stress now. It is because of exaggerating. When they want something, they get attached to it and obsess over it. And they want all of it. “Let it be half.” “No.” People want it to be perfect. When they are in trouble and they have to do something, they do the same; “I have to do it perfectly. I want to have it all. Everything must be perfect”. That is difficult. Nothing is perfect in this world. Apart from Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla and our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam, everything has a flaw. Nothing can be perfect 100%.
Therefore, out of the mercy of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam to us, Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla gave this to the Ummah for the honor of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم so that they are in the middle.
وَكَذَٰلِكَ جَعَلْنَـٰكُمْ أُمَّةً وَسَطًا
‘’Wa kadhalika ja’alnākum ‘ummatan
wasatāa”
‘‘Thus We have appointed you a middle nation.’’(Qur’ān 02:143).
It is said in the Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan. The Ummah is in the middle. The people before them had tougher orders, and they had to carry out all of them. Fortunately, we are the luckiest Ummah. We are from the Ummah of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam. For the honor of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, whatever you do, Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla will accept it. No need to exaggerate.
May Allah جل جلاله let us be consistent on this beautiful way insha’Allah.
Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
There are recited Qur’an Khatms, Yasin, Surahs and Ayat, Tasbihat and Salawat. Our brothers from all over the world have recited them for today and gifted them to us.
We gift them firstly to our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, to his Ahlu l-Bayt and Sahabah, the souls of all Anbiya, Awliya, Asfiya and Mashayikh, especially to the soul of our Shaykh Mawlana Shaykh Nazim ق, the souls of all of our late relatives.
May their good goals be reached and may it be the means of happiness here and hereafter. May it be the means for not separating from the right way. For goodness to come and evil to be gone.

إِن يَنصُرْكُمُ ٱللَّهُ فَلَا غَالِبَ لَكُمْ
(Qur’ān 03:160).
‘’In yanṣurkumu Llāhu falā ghāliba lakum’’
‘’If Allah helps you, none can overcome you.’‘
Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is the Victor. And those who are with Him جل جلاله win. Falsehood doesn’t win, but truth wins. The promise of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is Haqq/ truth here and hereafter. Nothing will remain in the hands of oppressors in this world. They won’t have any benefit. Whatever they do; the more they do, the more they will get punished.
Therefore, be together with Allah جل جلاله. Don’t be scared. No one can stand against Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. A person who fights against Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is stupid. He is mindless. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is the one who created everything. And everything is in
His جل جلاله Hand. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is the one who does whatever He جل جلاله wants whenever He جل جلاله wants. He جل جلاله conducts as He جل جلاله wants and He جل جلاله does as He جل جلاله wants.
Therefore, always be together with Allah جل جلاله. You will never have any hardship. The result of hardship is goodness. There is benefit in hardship too. There are rewards and Thawab in it.
Whoever is not together with Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla, his every work is a failure. And he doesn’t get any benefit. Even if the whole world is with him, he will not have any benefit because of the things he does. And the suffering he goes through will bring no benefit but harm.
Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is Powerful over everything. With few people He جل جلاله rules over the world. Don’t look at the majority. Don’t say “The majority is going on this way. We should follow them”. Their way is not right. The right way is the way of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla always gives victory to those who are with Him جل جلاله at last. Certainly, it is so. The promise of Allah جل جلاله is true. No one can stand against the will of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla.
May Allah جل جلاله let us be with Him جل جلاله, always remember Him جل جلاله and not let Him جل جلاله out of our hearts. Our profit is big. Don’t get upset by looking at the enjoyments of this world. Don’t be sad for the condition of this world. If you are with Allah جل جلاله, be happy. If you are not, then be sad. You can be sad for everything then.
As we see, the condition of the world is such that everyone is upset, because they are not with Allah جل جلاله. They are against Allah جل جلاله and rebelling against Allah جل جلاله.
May Allah جل جلاله protect us.

THE GREATEST KARAMAH IS TO WORSHIP CONTINUOUSLY

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.
Mankind always wants to see himself greater and higher than others. He wants to be better. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla made the nature of mankind this way. And that is not a good attribute. The good attribute is to always direct towards more knowledge, more worship and more good deeds. There is no limit for this. You should always keep on doing this. If you say “I have reached the highest rank. I have reached perfection”, you will not have reached anywhere then. You will have remained in your place, or even gone backwards.
The worship we perform and the knowledge we attain are not in order to reach a certain level. The reason we do them is the pleasure of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. If you do anything outside of it to reach certain point, to become ‘Awliya, to become this or that, or to become a Shaykh, you will have left the pleasure of Allah جل جلاله. And you will have done these things for other reasons. These things will be useless then. They won’t bring any benefit. They will even bring harm.
What we should do is keep on the Wazifah for the pleasure of Allah جل جلاله, perform Fard, Sunnah and all kinds of worship given for our life. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla tells us to do them continuously without difficulty. Our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم says the best of good deeds and worship is the continuous one, to be continuous even if little.
There are many people who reach certain points in this world. And then, some people do without knowing, but some leave the way of truth on purpose. There are groups who say “We have reached perfection. No need for worshipping anymore”. T

person on the way of Allah جل جلاله is a lucky person. To keep on this way is a great favor, a great virtue.
They ask what they should do. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla showed us this way and the beauty of this way through our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. It is of benefit for everything. It is beneficial for life in this world, and the biggest benefit and profit is for Akhirah. People on this way reach eternal happiness.
This way has its method and pillars. Everything is clear and transparent. Nothing is hidden on this way. If something is hidden, that means it is not good. This way is the way of love, the way of beauty, the way of service and the way of happiness. People on this way are lucky people from all perspectives. But of course, shaytan doesn’t leave them. He certainly bothers those who are on this way. He wants to cheat them as much as he can without giving a chance.
The shaytan told Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla, “I will take these people out of the way. And I will take them to hell together with me.Therefore, he attacks people who are on the right way. He targets them, for they are his enemies. Otherwise, he doesn’t attack people who are with him; saying, “Good, they are together already.” You look and see that they have their Jama’ah and communities, but they have no disputes. But people who are on the way of Allah جل جلاله and on the right way are certainly attacked. He puts Fitnah among them; he doesn’t try to but literally does it. And you see that people who are on the right way always have disputes and Fitnah among them. But in general, the majority is with them. Even if divided, they are the majority with the permission of Allah جل جلاله. This way is the way that they won, and shaytan loses.
Nevertheless, as we said, many people want to do goodness but cannot. When people come together, he immediately divides them and brings up dispute between them. He brings up something bad and divides them. People ask why it happens so. It is because you are fighting with the enemy. You don’t deal with those who are together with the enemy. He doesn’t care about someone who is like him or worse than him. There’s no need to deal with them. It is like, “A bird in the hand.”
People think that this way is difficult. Whatever is difficult has as many rewards. They say, “We struggle while praying and so on”. If you struggle, you will have much more rewards. Therefore, as we are on this way, people get tested and there may be difficulties. You should not pay attention to them. You should not care about them, for we are on the way of Haqq/ truth, Shukr to Allah جل جلاله. May Allah جل جلاله make it everlasting.
May Allah جل جلاله help us insha’Allah. May He جل جلاله always be with us and may we be with Him جل جلاله insha’Allah.

HONOR THE MONTHS OF HAJJ
31 May 2022/ 01 Dhu l-Qiʻdah 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.
Three of the Hurum/Sacred months, the months of Hajj have begun today insha’Allah. It is the beginning of the month of Dhu l-Qi’dah today. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla says,
إِنَّ عِدَّةَ ٱلشُّهُورِ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ ٱثْنَا عَشَرَ شَهْرًا فِى كِتَـٰبِ ٱللَّهِ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ مِنْهَآ أَرْبَعَةٌ حُرُمٌ ۚ
‘’Inna ‘Iddata Ash-Shuhūri ‘Inda Allāhi Athnā ‘Ashara Shahrāan Fī Kitābi Allāhi Yawma Khalaqa s-Samāwāti Wa l-Arda Minhā Arba’atun Hurum’’,
‘‘Indeed, the number of months with Allah is twelve [lunar] months in the register of Allah [from] the day He created the heavens and the earth; of these, four are Sacred.’’
(Qur’ān 09:36).
Twelve months; Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is the one who created everything. And Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla calculated and divided everything. He جل جلاله divided a year into twelve months. And four of the twelve months are Hurum/ Sacred months. One of them is Rajab, and then there are Dhu l-Qi’dah, Dhu l-Hijjah and Muharram.
These months are honored months. In order for people to have goodness, war is forbidden during these months. War is forbidden, but you cannot sit still against those who attack you. You should defend yourself and fight against those who start a war against you. You must ward them off.
Wherever there is danger, you must attack and defend yourself. You must defend Muslims and the Ummah, as it is your duty. And the duty is important.
Muslims have forgotten many things. They ask what should be done. Muslims are unaware of many things, because the Dunya has taken hold of them. Their hearts and minds are filled with it, and they don’t think about anything but Dunya; by saying “This has become expensive, that is cheap. This is good, that is bad”. They are not valuing the important things that Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla gave importance to.
These holy months are beginning today. They are the months of Hajj by the wisdom of Allah جل جلاله. People of old times used to show respect to them. And even if they couldn’t go to Hajj, they would keep honoring these months. As we said, by the wisdom of Allah جل جلاله, everything is done in calculation by Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. Certainly, everything has wisdom and benefit.
Therefore, may Allah جل جلاله bless these holy months for us. May it be good and full of Barakah insha’Allah. May there be victory for Islam. May it be the means for the coming of the Sahib insha’Allah.
May Allah جل جلاله make us steadfast on this way insha’Allah.

DON’T GIVE YOUR RIZQ TO SAFEEH

Fajr Prayer, Akbaba Dergah
As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa RaḥmatuLlāhi wa Barakātuh.

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:
وَلَا تُؤْتُوا۟ ٱلسُّفَهَآءَ أَمْوَٰلَكُمُ ٱلَّتِى جَعَلَ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمْ قِيَـٰمًا وَٱرْزُقُوهُمْ فِيهَا وَٱكْسُوهُمْ وَقُولُوا۟ لَهُمْ قَوْلًا مَّعْرُوفًا
(Qur’ān 04:05).
‘‘Wa lā tu’utū s-Sufahā’a ‘amwālakumu l-llatī ja’ala Allāhu lakum qiyāmāan wa Rzuqūhum fīhā wa ksūhum wa qūlū lahum qawlāan ma’rūfāan’’
‘‘And do not give the foolish your property, which Allah has made a means of sustenance for you, but provide for them with it and clothe them and speak to them words of appropriate kindness.’’
Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla says, “Don’t give your money and property away to Safeeh (profligate) people. Keep them.” “May they be a trust for you instead”, says Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. That is a Rizq from Allah جل جلاله. We should be careful with that. Generosity is one thing, but usage or care is another thing.
A Safeeh is a person who doesn’t value others’ goods, who doesn’t know how to handle them.
His property can be handled by his relatives. In order for it not to be wasted and squandered, they should keep it. They can give him as much as he needs, and give the rest slowly and step by step.
If he comes back to his senses and takes care of his property, it can be returned to him.
Most of the world has become such the Safeeh type.
Nevertheless, we have to keep the order of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla so that people don’t have any loss but have benefit.
Also, we are living in the end of times. People are saying, “We don’t know how to do it” and giving it to others. But others are cheating them by telling them that they will do it.
Whereas, some people cheat people out of stupidity, and some out of craftiness. “I want to use it and will return it after I earn profit. Let me do business with your money.” You must say, “No, my brother, if you had known it, you wouldn’t have needed me.
Mind your own business.” You should say the same to the crafty one. You shouldn’t believe
him. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla says to be careful for both yourself and others.
Rizq is from Allah جل جلاله. Do not give it away to this one and that one. Take care of your Rizq and property by yourself.
We are living in such an age that since the time of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم until now, people have changed a lot. This Ayah is always applicable. Be careful. Don’t give away to others by pretending to be generous or in order to earn more profit. Guarantee yourself. Guarantee your work and business.
Most of the time they used to come to Mawlana Shaykh Nazim and complain, “I gave this much money to this man, but he didn’t return it.” Mawlana Shaykh Nazim had a good reply, “Are you asking for it now? You should have asked from the beginning. Don’t ask now.”
There was a crafty man who took two mentally abnormal men as guarantors to a bank. He got the money from the bank. And then, the bank manager came to Mawlana Shaykh Nazim saying that this man did so. He said, “Why didn’t you ask him before?” He used to answer as such most of the time.
Therefore, Mashayikh don’t want it either. If you want to do something, you must do your research and then start it.
May Allah جل جلاله help us. May Allah جل جلاله protect us. May Allah جل جلاله give us good Halal Rizq. A person who thinks that he gets profit in such a way doesn’t earn anything. He is losing and putting others in loss too. May Allah جل جلاله improve us.
May Allah جل جلاله give mind and understanding to people.

STRENGTH IS IN OVERCOMING ANGER

Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam says, “Who is the strong one? Is it the person who beats people and defeats this one and that one?” “It is not”, says our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam.
The strong person is the one who overcomes his anger. To defeat it is more difficult than defeating another person. Therefore, when people follow their egos, that doesn’t come to their minds. They think, “Whoever comes, I will defeat him. Whoever makes me angry, I will beat him up”. They are controlled by their egos and captured by their egos.
Who controls his anger is the one who is strong. Who cannot control his anger, a person who shows his anger to people or to those who make him angry by beating them has a weak willpower. When the willpower is weak, a person cannot be considered strong.
A further level is when someone forgives the person he got angry with; that is more acceptable in the presence of Allah جل جلاله
Everything people of the present time teach is to be angry, to be resentful and to demand your rights. That is the game of shaytan. The more they do so, the more loss they get. More loss comes to everything around them. “Who starts up with anger sits down with loss”, a proverb of ours says. Therefore, we should control it.
Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam says:
“إِنَّمَا الْعِلْمُ بِالتَّعَلُّمِ، وَإِنَّمَا الْحِلْمُ بِالتَّحَلُّمِ”
“Knowledge is only by learning, and forbearance is only by exerting oneself to be forbearing”. Knowledge is attained by learning. And it is said,
“الْحَلِيمُ سَلِيمٌ”
“The forbearing one is [always] in a good state.”
A person who captures and controls his anger is forbearing. A person who controls his anger is an acceptable person in the presence of Allah جل جلاله. May Allah جل جلاله protect us.
It is difficult. As we said, as our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم says, it is a difficult matter. And whoever controls it becomes strong. Those who cannot control it, even if they say that they are strong, they are not strong. They are captured by their egos and captured by their anger. May Allah جل جلاله protect us.
May Allah جل جلاله help us insha’Allah.

The Greatness and Magnificence of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is beyond people’s minds. People of the present time think that they are important ones by learning a few things in this world. The Power and Greatness of Allah جل جلاله are much beyond the minds of people. Their minds cannot fathom the Greatness and Magnificence of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla.
We are witnessing now that people think that they know everything and that everything is under their control. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla has shown their weakness numerous times. Still, they are not taking a lesson. Whoever doesn’t take a lesson means that he has a mind deficiency; because there are many things that people think they know, but they don’t know much.
BismiLlahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim:
وَمَآ أُوتِيتُم مِّنَ ٱلْعِلْمِ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا
‘’Wa mā ūtītum min al- ‘ilmi illa qalīla’’,
‘‘And mankind have not been given of knowledge except a little.’’ (Qur’ān 17:85).
Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla says, “You have just a little from knowledge. What is given to you is very little”. With that little, people are giving themselves too much value by saying “We know a lot”. You know very little. There is too much that you don’t know. What you know is very little, and what you don’t know is a lot.
The knowledge Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla gave to people is for people to know Him جل جلاله But what are they doing? They are doing the opposite of that. They are denying Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla and saying, “There is no such thing”. Many people understand their weakness afterwards. As soon as something little happens, their weakness appears. But what can you do?
May Allah جل جلاله make us among those who know. May He جل جلاله give us from the true knowledge. May He جل جلاله give us from “Ilmi Ladun” – the knowledge from the presence of Allah جل جلاله that lets you know Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla, knowledge that is useful insha’Allah. May He جل جلاله grant us all this knowledge.
May He جل جلاله make us from those who see the truth and believe in the truth, not from the denying ones. They are leading people to denial by telling them that it is right. They are harming them.
May Allah جل جلاله give us from the knowledge that is useful insha’Allah.

MIDDLE IS BEST

خَيْرُ الْأُمُورِ الْوَسَط
Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam says that the middle of everything is best. Exaggerating is not good, says our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam.
You must go on the middle way in everything. Don’t try to perform a lot of worship all at once, because afterwards you won’t be able to do it at all. It will be hard. But people who keep in the middle can keep it going. It is so for all aspects, not only for praying and worshiping. It is the same in worldly matters as well. You must go in the middle. It is not good to lean towards this side or that side. People who go on the middle way are comfortable.
People of the present time call it stress now. It is because of exaggerating. When they want something, they get attached to it and obsess over it. And they want all of it. “Let it be half.” “No.” People want it to be perfect. When they are in trouble and they have to do something, they do the same; “I have to do it perfectly. I want to have it all. Everything must be perfect”. That is difficult. Nothing is perfect in this world. Apart from Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla and our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam, everything has a flaw. Nothing can be perfect 100%.
Therefore, out of the mercy of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam to us, Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla gave this to the Ummah for the honor of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم so that they are in the middle.
وَكَذَٰلِكَ جَعَلْنَـٰكُمْ أُمَّةً وَسَطًا
‘’Wa kadhalika ja’alnākum ‘ummatan
wasatāa”
‘‘Thus We have appointed you a middle nation.’’(Qur’ān 02:143).
It is said in the Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan. The Ummah is in the middle. The people before them had tougher orders, and they had to carry out all of them. Fortunately, we are the luckiest Ummah. We are from the Ummah of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam. For the honor of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, whatever you do, Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla will accept it. No need to exaggerate.
May Allah جل جلاله let us be consistent on this beautiful way insha’Allah.
Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
There are recited Qur’an Khatms, Yasin, Surahs and Ayat, Tasbihat and Salawat. Our brothers from all over the world have recited them for today and gifted them to us.
We gift them firstly to our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, to his Ahlu l-Bayt and Sahabah, the souls of all Anbiya, Awliya, Asfiya and Mashayikh, especially to the soul of our Shaykh Mawlana Shaykh Nazim ق, the souls of all of our late relatives.
May their good goals be reached and may it be the means of happiness here and hereafter. May it be the means for not separating from the right way. For goodness to come and evil to be gone.

إِن يَنصُرْكُمُ ٱللَّهُ فَلَا غَالِبَ لَكُمْ
(Qur’ān 03:160).
‘’In yanṣurkumu Llāhu falā ghāliba lakum’’
‘’If Allah helps you, none can overcome you.’‘
Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is the Victor. And those who are with Him جل جلاله win. Falsehood doesn’t win, but truth wins. The promise of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is Haqq/ truth here and hereafter. Nothing will remain in the hands of oppressors in this world. They won’t have any benefit. Whatever they do; the more they do, the more they will get punished.
Therefore, be together with Allah جل جلاله. Don’t be scared. No one can stand against Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. A person who fights against Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is stupid. He is mindless. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is the one who created everything. And everything is in
His جل جلاله Hand. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is the one who does whatever He جل جلاله wants whenever He جل جلاله wants. He جل جلاله conducts as He جل جلاله wants and He جل جلاله does as He جل جلاله wants.
Therefore, always be together with Allah جل جلاله. You will never have any hardship. The result of hardship is goodness. There is benefit in hardship too. There are rewards and Thawab in it.
Whoever is not together with Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla, his every work is a failure. And he doesn’t get any benefit. Even if the whole world is with him, he will not have any benefit because of the things he does. And the suffering he goes through will bring no benefit but harm.
Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla is Powerful over everything. With few people He جل جلاله rules over the world. Don’t look at the majority. Don’t say “The majority is going on this way. We should follow them”. Their way is not right. The right way is the way of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla always gives victory to those who are with Him جل جلاله at last. Certainly, it is so. The promise of Allah جل جلاله is true. No one can stand against the will of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla.
May Allah جل جلاله let us be with Him جل جلاله, always remember Him جل جلاله and not let Him جل جلاله out of our hearts. Our profit is big. Don’t get upset by looking at the enjoyments of this world. Don’t be sad for the condition of this world. If you are with Allah جل جلاله, be happy. If you are not, then be sad. You can be sad for everything then.
As we see, the condition of the world is such that everyone is upset, because they are not with Allah جل جلاله. They are against Allah جل جلاله and rebelling against Allah جل جلاله.
May Allah جل جلاله protect us.

Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.
Mankind always wants to see himself greater and higher than others. He wants to be better. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla made the nature of mankind this way. And that is not a good attribute. The good attribute is to always direct towards more knowledge, more worship and more good deeds. There is no limit for this. You should always keep on doing this. If you say “I have reached the highest rank. I have reached perfection”, you will not have reached anywhere then. You will have remained in your place, or even gone backwards.
The worship we perform and the knowledge we attain are not in order to reach a certain level. The reason we do them is the pleasure of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. If you do anything outside of it to reach certain point, to become ‘Awliya, to become this or that, or to become a Shaykh, you will have left the pleasure of Allah جل جلاله. And you will have done these things for other reasons. These things will be useless then. They won’t bring any benefit. They will even bring harm.
What we should do is keep on the Wazifah for the pleasure of Allah جل جلاله, perform Fard, Sunnah and all kinds of worship given for our life. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla tells us to do them continuously without difficulty. Our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم says the best of good deeds and worship is the continuous one, to be continuous even if little.
There are many people who reach certain points in this world. And then, some people do without knowing, but some leave the way of truth on purpose. There are groups who say “We have reached perfection. No need for worshipping anymore”. T
