beating. If they do, it is only up to a point. Then they will run. You must do everything with goodness so that they follow you and don`t upset you. Otherwise, the more you apply force and push them, the more they will try to escape. There is nothing to run from. Therefore, if you want to do so, do it to your ego. If you want to make it difficult and do more, do it yourself. Let your ego do it. Oppress your ego. It is not like that with others. You can apply force only to your ego. And do goodness to others. Always show beauty. With beauty, they will have affection towards you. They will love you and they will follow you, and you will get what you want. You won`t get it done any other way.
May Allāh give wisdom to all of us. May He show us what we should do, not what our ego wants. May we know the good and the bad, Insha Allah.
Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam saying: “Bashshirū wa-lā tunaffirū, yassirū wa-lātu‘assirū.“ Everything you make it easy, make it not difficult, and give good tiding for people. Don’t give bad thing. This is adab of Prophet, adab of ṭarīqah, adab of Islām: to be good with people and to teach them with mercy, with quiet, not with difficult. Slowly, slowly can there be more love. Some people they want, [at] once they teach people, and everybody must do this as it is written by book. But people they cannot, many people they don’t know anything about religion, about what is sunnah, what is farḍ; so slowly, slowly you must teach them. Don’t make order them, “Do this, don’t do that,“ like this. They will be opposite. They will run away from you, and soon [from] what you teach them also.
This is problem. Many people they had this problem, and they left religion and not looking at all. Whole life just, for this people, they make them to do what they thought it is right. It is right, but you cannot every right you do it directly. Slowly, slowly they accept. But when you do by force, by... force and make them to do – maybe they can do a little bit. After, they will run away they will not come back at all for this. For this, we must teach other people or family or children with slowly, slowly –
Page281
with, make them to happy with you when you are doing this. Not, when they are seeing you, they left and run away.
We see many people they was very good family, very good people, but when father, he try to make them as he thought he is doing right, they make them run away and never come back to religion. This very unlucky for this, because we know this family, we know them. They are very good people, but since from father he thought he is doing good, he has no wisdom, they run away and never come back. We can, this people was, can win them in this way, way of Allāh way of Prophet, way of ṭarīqah, and they can teach other people. Now from this one man like this, maybe hundred people they are not coming to Islām or to religion or to respect this, even.
So, it is very important to be have some wisdom. For this, Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam saying: “Tafakkursā‘atinkhayrun min ‘ibādatisab‘īnsanah.“ To think one hour, what it is right, what is wrong, what we must do – better than worshiping seventy years. Seventy years, one hour better than this. Because in one hour, maybe you can win everything. But in seventy years, only – other people they win. But in seventy years, only you maybe win; other people, maybe they are not happy.
For this, we are, Mawlānā Shaykh all time he was tough for himself. Never he was tough for other people. All time, he make them to be happy with him. He give them very easy thing to do. From very easy thing, after, they do everything. This is for his barakah.
Insha Allah, Allāh make us, all of us to have this wisdom and to be good with other people, with us also, Insha Allah.

DON’T BE PROUD IN FRONT OF ALLĀH Tuesday, 18 of April 2023 / 27 Ramadan 1444
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunassohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem: “Fa-lā taghurrannakumu l-ḥayātu ddunyā wa-lā yaghurrannakum bi-Llāhi l-gharūr“ (31:33). ṢadaqaLlāhu l‘aẓīm.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says: “Don`t be cheated by the life of this world and don`t be proud.““I am better than these people, I have more wealth and property, my rank is higher.“ A person who is proud of his life in this world is an idiot. Because this world does not belong to anyone and it won`t belong to you.Moreover, it is unclear what will happen to it in the end. Everything can happen in this world. Therefore, it is important to be on the way of Allāh and do not go against Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla.
Your pride can take you to such destruction that you won`t recognize Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. You won`t want Him or accept Him. Pride is something that comes from arrogance. During the last years, it has increased a lot in this world. They think they are important and don`t accept Allāh. They don`t accept because of their pride and arrogance. Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla says: “Beware of doing this.“ Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla is ordering people, out of His mercy, to not do this. He is warning them. He is alerting them. You will be the loser if you think you are important in this life of two days. This is not harmful to others. This badness that is done will turn back on yourselves. It will bring loss to you.Therefore, the way of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is the way of humbleness of believers.
Page283
Humbleness is something Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla loves in believers. Pride is not good at all. Especially, people who are proud by being cheated by this world, will only destroy and ruin themselves. No matter how high your rank is, no matter if you own the whole world, even if you take control of this world, it has no value in the presence of Allāh. The value of one believer is more precious than all of these. The value of a believer is more precious than millions and billions of those who don`t believe and who don`t ask for forgiveness. Therefore, be from the precious ones in the presence of Allāh. Don`t be cheated by looking at others. Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla says: “Don`t let them cheat you.“ May Allāh make us from His beloved people, Insha Allah.
Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla saying in Qur’ān: “Fa-lā taghurrannakumu l-ḥayātu d-dunyā wa-lā yaghurrannakum bi-Llāhi l-gharūr“ (31:33). ṢadaqaLlāhu l-‘aẓīm. He said, Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla: “Don’t be cheated with this life, earthly life and you be proud or brave in front of Allāh.” This life, it is nothing, just very short, very difficult for people, who are not believer. They thought they`re having everything and they`re very proud. They say, “We have this money, we have this knowledge, we are professor, we are doctor, we are... have company or controlling whole world. We doing that, we done that.“ And they`re proud and not accepting the Creator, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, even. They are very proud, not accept Him. No, nothing this, this is... we not believe on this.
This is what shayṭān these days make this people, to make, to destroy themselves. It is fashion now everywhere in world to be... They thought they are brave in front of Allāh and they can say: “We are not believe in You.” But where they`re not brave – when they`re facing people. They`re afraid from even their shadow, these people. Nighttime they`re afraid from darkness. Any small voice coming, they`re very afraid. But then, where they must afraid, they`re not afraid. Allāh make them to whole life miserable and afraid from everything. Because they are thought they are brave. When somebody claim something, Allāh, if it is not in right way, Allāh make him to suffer from this, what he’s claim.Allāh make, ask for people: “Come. Don’t be cheated with this luxury life, with life
Page284
you are living and to come against Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla.” Come to His way because His way most valuable. One mu’min, believer, he is better more valuable from billion of non-believers, ten billionsof non-believers. If they are believer, okay they are valuable also, but with Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla, there is nothing, not at all [like] believer. There is ḥadīth: “If this whole world it is valuable as wing of mosquito, Allāh will not give one drop of water for non-believer.” But this is even, whole this world and what is value of maybe billion of mosquito, what is value for this? Even He said, not billion, one mosquito.
This example, it is unbelievable what ḥadīth and Qur’ān, they give from wisdom and teaching people, to know, to give them – how it is not valuable at all, this life, this world. When you are not following, accepting Allāh, you are, don’t have any valuable. Even you are president, your whole, may be if you are whole world under your control, you are not, nothing. Don’t think you are thing and you be proud, Allāh, He is not happy with this.
Allah make us from people who He is happy with them, Insha Allah, valuable in His divine presence, Insha Allah.

THE REWARDS OF FASTING RAMAḌĀN Thursday, 20 April 2023 / 29 Ramadan 1444
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunassohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Alḥamdulilāh for these favours. Thanksand praise to Allāh for the favours that He gives. We have reached the last day of the holy month of Ramaḍān. Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla will give great rewards tonight to those believers who spent this Ramaḍān fasting, making i‘tikāf, giving zakāh and performing their prayers. He says, “I know the amount. Only I know. No one else know how much I will give.“ Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla is generous. What He gives is countless and unlimited. May it be a blessing and great good tidings for people and believers who appreciate this beautiful month, who spend it as Allāh wants and as Allah loves.
Our Holy Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam has said and promised great rewards at the end of this month. It is the word of Allāh‘Azza waJalla. His word is true. Therefore, may it be blessed for everyone. Because it is such a holy month that a person who doesn`t fast on purpose loses a lot of things. People will regret it later. They will want to make it up. It is okay to make it up, but when they make it up, because they purposely didn`t fast, they have to fast sixty days kaffārah and after that they can start fasting their missed days.
For all missed days, people can make them up slowly. But there is a “but” here as well. They cannot attain the same virtue. Even if they make kaffārah and fast their missed days, our Holy Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam says they cannot attain the same virtue. Even if they fast all their lives, if they break it only on ‘Īd and continue to fast
Page286
on the other days for years, they cannot attain the virtue of that one day [they missed]. It is so valuable. People are missing it. They are wasting it without caring. But if Allāh shows them guidance, it is better that they make it up but they will not get the precious things and rewards they missed. May Allāh protect us all. May Allāh help us protect the obligations (farḍ) ordered by Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla. Farḍ is the most important thing. Certainly, you cannot have it when you miss sunnah as well. But farḍ is most precious. Therefore, we must not miss our prayers. We shouldn`t delay making them up. This is an important matter. People must certainly be careful about them.Shukr to Allāh, tonight is the eve of ‘Īd. It is one of the virtuous nights. Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla gave us Ramaḍān, and He gave us the last day, the eve of ‘Īd . It is among the holy nights like Laylatu l-Qadr, Laylatu l-Mi‘rāj, Laylatu l-Barā’ah. Just like those nights, the eve of ‘Īd is also blessed and Jum‘ah is blessed. This time they have come together. There will be more barakah, Insha Allah. May Allāh give you barakah. May Allāhmake all of us steadfast on the way of truth. May others have the means of guidance. May Allāh give guidance to them so that they do not miss these virtues, Insha Allah. May it be blessed for us all, Insha Allah.
Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam say, “Allāh, He giving good tiding for ummah who are, they are make this month of Ramaḍān and doing what Allāh, He like to do, as fasting day time, praying nighttime and doing charity and doing i‘tikāf or what all this.“ Allāhsaid, I, Aṣṣawmulī, wa-anāajzibih.”“Fasting [is] for Me and I will give what I want.“ And He is generous, He will be, Insha Allah, without counting. You will be surprised when you see what you get in for this. Allāh reward you in this month. In ākhirah you will be really pleased,shocked. Unbelievable what Allāh give you, for mu’min, for Muslim who know value of this month. And Alhamdulilah, we are, even without seeing anything, we feel very good, Alhamdulilah, from this blessing month which it is for ummah of Prophet ṣalláLlāhu‘alayhiwasallam, it given. And really it is very blessed thing.Many people they don’t know, most of people and what, they – people who giving value for this month, very few. But other, they are not giving value, they are going... Allāh give hidāyah for them also we saying, because they miss so many thing.
Page287
Even many people, before, they can be not give value for this month, but after they are giving value and beginning too fast. But when you, if you miss one day from Ramaḍān, you must make it again, after. You must fast one day for each day you missed. But, if you are knowing and insisting, but without knowing it is maybe Allāh‘afuww. But when, if you know, first you must fast sixty days for as before making this fast what you missed. One day, five days, ten days one month, ten months, twenty months. Each day, not for each day sixty days. Only first one, sixty days. After, anytime, slowly slowly you must make it, because this is obligatory for you.
You have to give it back from your side for Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. But it is also good for who can do, Allāh give him hidāyah and give, become, making to finish what he not fast, to fast them. But also Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam saying, they cannot reach the value of what he who fast in its time of Ramaḍān. Every time, the time of fasting, even for one day Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam saying: “If you fast whole your life without cutting, years and years, it is not value for one day blessed, this what you missed.” So, but also, if they even they know they cannot reach this value, but must make it again. Because, it is in ākhirah more difficult to make it. Allah give hidāyah for other people also and give you from His endless treasure, Insha Allah.And the end of this month also, this night of ‘Īd, the first of Shawwāl, it is also blessed night. Like Laylatu l-Qadr, like Isrā’ wa-l-Mi‘rāj, this night also blessed night. Allāh accept du‘ā’ and reward you more and more, in shā’aLlāh. And night of Friday also, same like this. This year coming all –‘Īd and Friday together. It will be more blessed, Insha Allah. Allāh bless you and Allāh make us to be with Sayyidunā l-Mahdī‘alayhi s-salām, Insha Allah. We hope, Insha Allah. Every time we are in need for him. Today, before tomorrow. Ummah it is in need for him, Insha Allah. Allāh make him to come quickly, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

THREE ‘ĪDS TODAY Friday, 21 April2023 / 1 Shawwal 1444
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunassohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
May Allāh bless our feast. May it be accepted in the sight of Allāh. On this ‘Īd, Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla shows the angels what Muslims have done, and is happy. Therefore, may it be blessed. This is from the real feasts. There are many things that are considered holidays now. They have neither virtue nor barakah. The things made precious by Allāh ‘Azza waJalla are valuable. The rest has no value. Even if it seems valuable at first, it later becomes clear that it is worthless. People waste their time. They waste their lives.
Shukr to Allāh, today is ‘Īd. And shukr to Allāh, they say there are two ‘Īds: ‘Īdu l-Fiṭr and Jum‘ah. Jum‘ah is a feast as well. As it is a feast, some people who know only by hearsay claim there is no wedding between two ‘Īds. They say a marriage is not made then. That is not between ‘Īdu l-Fiṭr and ‘Īdu l-Aḍḥá, but between `Īd and Jum‘ah. As Jum‘ah is also a Muslim holiday, there is no chance, no time in between. It is okay, it is accepted. But there is not enough time. People mistakenly can call permissible things sinful or call accepted things unacceptable. That is not important. Shukr to Allāh, what is important is that we have two feasts today.
And the third one is that it is the birthday of Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim, according to Gregorian calendar. The twenty-first of April is the blessed day when he came to this world. That is the means of joy and relief for
Page289
us. Because he is example of the āyah we recited in the khuṭbah a while ago. His Awliyā’uLlāh, “Alāinna Awliyā’aLlāh ilā khawfun ‘alayhim wa-lā hum yaḥzanūn“ (10:62). Awliyā’ of Allāh have no fear. They have no sadness. They fear and respect Allāh. They are the people who believe in and fear Allāh. Good tidings for them, both here and hereafter.This is a big thing. Because people dive into this world and think they can find everything in it. They forget about the next world. Everything is good for Awliyā’uLlāh, even in this world, as well. Allāh helps them. And He gave them good tidings about the next world. “Lātabdīla li-kalimātiLlāh“ (10:64). The word of Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla cannot be changed. The promise of Allāh is true. Therefore, as the third reason for joy, we are celebrating and making shukr to Allāh for sitting at his feet. There are hundreds of thousands, millions of people all over the world who find salvation at his feet. We make shukr to Allāh for being with him.
It is said in ḥadīthsharīf who are the most beloved people of Allāh, the best loved people of Allāh. People are servants, created by Allāh. And the most beloved people are “anfa‘uhumli‘ayālih“; in the presence of Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla, the most beloved people are the people who benefit His servants. Awliyā’ means walī, the beloved, a person who is loved. And the most important thing for us is not to be loved by this and that one, but to be loved by Allāh. As long as Allāh loves you, everyone will love you. If Allāh doesn`t love you, do whatever you want, no one will care about or love you. Allāh makes others love those whom He loves.
Of course it is important to be loved by good people. It is better not to be loved by people who are not good. It is a good thing, too, so that good ones are with good ones. And bad ones will be good if Allāh gives them guidance. The door of goodness and the door of forgiveness are not closed. Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla is the one who forgives mistakes. You make one mistake in dunyā, and even though you repent and ask for forgiveness, they will throw you in jail or you will carry its punishment whatever it is. There is no other option. But Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is for-
Page290
giving.Therefore, join the way of Allāh so that you become beloved of Allāh and attain those good tidings. and you have goodness here and hereafter. This is the promise of Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla.
We are, Alhamdulilah... Happy ‘Īd, Insha Allah. This ‘Īdu l-Fiṭr, feast of fasting, after Ramaḍān finish. The real feast, it is this one. And there is only two feasts for believer, for Muslim. We celebrate and – small, young, old – everyone celebrates. Even they are not practicing, but still, they are celebrating this feast. They are going, visiting each other. And children they are playing, running, they have some... Old time there was more enjoyment for small children. But now it`s okay. Even now they are feeling for this feast, ‘Īd, and they will become happy. This happiness, from Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, which it is given by Him, and, Insha Allah, who happy with this, Insha Allah, give him even little bit in his heart belief, īmān. It will grow, Insha Allah. For this, we are happy with this ‘Īd.
And today, Jum‘ah, Friday, also feast for believer, for Muslim. Allāh give this day for Muslim. Every week we celebrate, but, of course, the ‘Īd not like other ‘Īd we celebrate. Just, we celebrate. So, today, there are two ‘Īd, two feasts. We are happy with this. But, I don`t know if anyone from Turkish people, they saying: “You cannot marry between two ‘Īds, two feasts, between ‘Īdu l-Aḍḥá and [Fiṭr],“ but it is really, reality, if coming to Friday, so Friday also ‘Īd. So, between this, it is difficult to make marriage, to make nikāḥ in this two hours, three hours. For this, they said. But people, they are mixing between what is, can be, or cannot be, or between to be ḥalāl or ḥarām. So, but normally, no time to make this. And Alhamdulilah, we are happy from morning. Becoming more happy with Jum‘ahalso.And Alhamdulilah, today also, there is third ‘Īd for us. For who following ṭarīqah, who following sharī‘ah– especially for Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim follower. It is day – birthday of Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim. Twenty-one April in 1922, he honoured, light –Allāh give light with him to this earth, which it was the real, the most darkest time. In time of Islām which, Khalīf– they was throwing out Emperor of Islām, destroying with this non-believer, and they thought
Page291
they finished Islām. Because, when khilāfah (caliphate) finish, nothing. All they exile the Khalīfah and other, whole salṭanat people, and they thought they finished Islām.
Alhamdulilah that time, Allāh send Mawlānā Shaykh. It was his birth time. It was very terrible time for whole planet, for whole Earth. Everywhere mess, illness, hunger. No hope at all. But, Alhamdulilah, from no hope, Allāh bring light, bring hope for this. And this, there was one of our old murīd, who is relative to my auntie. He was murīd of Shaykh Sharafu d-Dīn ad-Dāghistānī. And that time, he was saying to Mawlānā Shaykh ‘Abdu Llāh ad-Dāghistānī, “Today, one of our child, they coming to this dunyā, to Earth.“ And even he describe him. He said that he will be opening – many non-Muslims become Muslim on his hand. Even he gave his number of shoes, his feet [shoe size]. He was saying, giving tiding to Shaykh ‘Abdu Llāh ad-Dāghistānī, and it was real good tiding.
Alhamdulilah, we are following him. We are happy Allāh make us to follow him. He give light for whole world. Everywhere coming, even until now, many, still more and more people coming through him, alḥamduliLlāh.
He is – in āyat we read in khuṭbah: Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm: “Alāinna awliyā’aLlāh ilā khawfun‘ alayhim wa-lā hum yaḥzanūn. Alladhīna āmanū wa-kānū yattaqūn“ (10:62-64). “Beloved one for Allāh, there are no fear for them, and no sadness.“ And, because they are believer and they are afraid from Allāh to do anything wrong, they have: “Lahumu l-bushráfī l-ḥayāti d-dunyā wa-fī l-ākhiratilātabdīla likalimātiLlāh“ (10:64). Allāh help them in this world and ākhirah. Nothing can affect them. This, good tidings they said, and no changing for word of Allāh. Allāh`s word, not like our word. This is for human being to see how good to be with Allāh, not to be away from Him. Because, in dunyā and in ākhirah, in this life and other life, they will be winner. Nothing affect them. Nothing make them sad or fear for them. Because many, maybe, people they are working in dunyā. They succeed in dunyā, but for ākhirah, they don`t have anything.
Page292
But Awliyā’uLlāh, they are for dunyā and for ākhirah. And they are bringing people also with them. They are benefit for human being. Ḥadīth of Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam we said, “Aḥabbuhum iláLlāhi anfa‘uhumli‘ayālih.““People, they are servant for Allāh, and the most beloved one for Him, who help His servants.“ Alhamdulilah, Mawlānā Shaykh, whole life he was helping in everything, for spiritual, and also material, also. All time, he is looking to help people, from his young time until end of his life. Allāh bless him.
We are thanking him, because until now, with his barakah, you are coming, because his barakah not cutting. It is still running like big river, Insha Allah. Allāh make us with him, Insha Allah, forever.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

A DAJJĀL IN CENTRAL ASIA Saturday, 23 April 2023 / 3 Shawwal 1444
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunassohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem: “Inna d-dīna‘ indaLlāhi l-Islām“ (3:19). The religion in the sight of Allāh is Islām. All prophets are in the religion of Islām. The religion of Allāh is Islām. There is no other religion apart from it. They say interfaith dialogue. There isn`t such a thing. There isn’t more than one religion. The religion since Ādam‘alayhi ssalām until our Holy Prophet is Islām. Whatever is ordered in the religon of Islām, the same is ordered by sharī‘ah and ṭarīqah. Ṭarīqah and sharī‘ah are one. They are not different. They are Islām. They are the ways that show Islām. And they are the way of our Holy Prophet.
Certainly, there are the religions of shayṭān opposing his way. People think of it as religion. That religion is those who do everything that shayṭān tells them, and say, “Don`t worship Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla. Come and worship other things.“ There are many people who mislead others in this way. Nowadays they are numerous. There were liars even in the time of our Holy Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam. There were many fake prophets at that time. But all of them are gone. They have vanished.
Our Holy Prophet had many miracles. His biggest miracle is the Qur’ān. And he has other miracles. He brought water out of dry wells. He put his saliva on the eye of Sayyidunā‘Alī and cured him. Another ṣaḥābīyhad lost his eye in the battle. He put it back in place and cured
Page294
him, too. Our Holy Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam had many miracles.
The fake prophets had the inverse effect. The opposite. Musaylimatu lKadhdhāb means Musaylimah the Liar. One man had a sore eye and he went to him. He spat on his eye, and both of his eyes became blind. There was only a little water in a well. He spat in it, and it dried out completely. Allāh shames them like this. Yet, there are many stupid people who follow them. There are so many of them. When Musaylimah was in the castle, 90,000 people became kāfir, because they were with him. They left the religion. And they died with him. So many people leave the right way and don`t know what they are doing. They are destroying themselves. Since the time of our Holy Prophet until now, it is the same. Every day you hear of something new. There are small ones and large ones.
Our religion and our ṭarīqah are clear. Our way is the way based on truth, sharī‘ah, Qur’ān, and sunnah, and it is connected to our Holy Prophet. Whoever goes outside it is not accepted in our ṭarīqah. We don`t accept them. There are people who claim to have taken permission from us, and they mislead people to other ways. They have nothing to do with us. When we give permission, it is written in our permission that they are allowed to do things on the way of ṭarīqah and sharī‘ah. The permission of the ones who go outside of that is cancelled. We have nothing to do with them. We advise them to fear Allāh.
Yesterday we heard about a new, even worse one. Our Holy Prophet said there will be dajjāls in the end of times. There is the biggest one who will appear at last. But there will be many dajjāls before him. So there is fitnah in Central Asia. One man has appeared and does strange things, perverted things. He does all kinds of dirtiness and evil. And he claims to have taken permission from Shaykh. There is no such permission. No permission for perversion. We don`t give permission to things that are opposite sharī‘ah. The brothers should share this, because shayṭān is also attacking those who are on the right path by saying, “We
Page295
will raise you. Your rank will increase. Give one thousand dollars and we will increase you.“ And then they make people do all kinds of dirt. They also leave the way. All kinds of trouble reach them then. Jinn and everything attack them. Craziness and jinn. Everything may come.
Therefore, beware and watch out for these people. If there is something you feel doubtful about, make sure to ask. There are people to ask. And there are these machines now that share all kinds of dirtiness all over the place. Yet you may use them for goodness. You may use them to ask, anywhere. You will get your answer, about whether it is right or not. For example, someone says, “Such a man says this, and does that. It doesn`t feel right to us. How come?“ Of course it doesn`t. What they do cannot seem right to normal people. Therefore, be careful. There are always a lot of these Musaylimah liars, a lot of dajjāls. Beware of them. Beware of going to hell by wishing to increase your rank. Because what they do is literally misleading from religion and losing īmān. May Allāh protect us.
These poor people in Central Asia are hungry for religion. They think these people are religious and Muslim and are following them. Don`t be cheated by them. It is clear from their faces. They have no mercy. Allāh made their faces deceitful. There is al-Masīḥu d-Dajjāl. That is exactly what they are. Their faces are mixed up with each other. May Allāh protect us. May Allāh protect us from their evil. May Allāh protect Muslims and all people from their evil, Insha Allah.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem: “Inna d-dīna‘indaLlāhi l-Islām“ (3:19). ṢadaqaLlāhu l-‘aẓīm. Religión, Allah saying in Qur’ān, Islām, religion of Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla. His religion, Islām. Islām only for Prophet Muḥammad ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam? No. This religion come from – not, our Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam, he make this religion – [it is] from Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla. From Ādam‘alayhi s-salām until Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam–Islām. There is, they said, interfaith. They... Christianity, Jewish and then Islām, we must do gathering and discuss. This – religions? No. Only religion, only one. Only Islām. All prophets,
Page296
they were following this. But that time, slowly, slowly, until coming toProphetṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam, it is complete, this religion, our religion. And it is – What we are following in ṭarīqah? We following Islām, we following sharī‘ah. Ṭarīqah, it is heart of sharī‘ah. Without sharī‘ah, no ṭarīqah. Without ṭarīqah, no sharī‘ah also, because they are mixing. Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam, exactly he gave what ṭarīqah we are following. We are following Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam. And of course, from many people coming to make people, whispering for them, to make them doubt for this. But religion only one.
And many people, since Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam until now, they trying to destroy this Islām. But they cannot. But what they do? They destroy people who following them, to finish them. As time of Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam, also even in the time – his time – this liar prophets, they appear around in Arabian peninsula: in Yemen, in Ḥaḍramūt, in Gulf area, many of them. But, they died – they killed and they destroyed, all these. Many of them... The most famous one, Musaylimah. Musaylimatu l-Kadhdhāb. Meaning? Meaning, Musaylimah the Liar. Because he was there, he claim he is prophet, and he send, like he have one book for himself for people to worshiping with this book.
And normally prophets, they have a miracle. Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam, many miracle. One of them, to cure eyes of Sayyidunā‘Alī when he was, has illness in his eye, and he spit on his eye and he was opening his eye. He seeing, [as if] nothing [had happened]. Other one, one battle one of ṣaḥābah he get, his eyes, throwing one arrow, and it coming down, and he was holding [the eye] in his hand. Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam took his spit and put [the eye] in place and become again as nothing [had happened]. And there was also water coming from his hand. From well also, when he spit in water – well, no water. Coming whole water from well.
And this [Musaylimah] he, everything, he was imitating Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam. And so once, one of people they was have, his
Page297
eye, it is pain from inside. And, “Come, come. I will make you good.“ And he spat in his eyes. He become blind. Other, they said, “There is no water here, very few water in this well.““Okay, I am coming.“ He spit on water. Well – water going out, no... drying. But people still following this people because they are idiot and they have to... following their desire from their ego. They are going after them. Even when this Musaylimah, he last time putting, fighting with him. He killed more than thirty or twenty thousand of ṣaḥābah. Eight hundred from them, they wasḥāfiẓ Qur’ān. They knowing Qur’ān by heart and they was very important for Islām. But all in this war. But at the end, they surround in their castle – fort, and they killed them. All of them, ninety thousand of them, was killed there with him. Who killed him, he was Waḥshī. He is who killed SayyidunāḤamzah. Because he said I – after he become Muslim he said – I will kill one, it must be equal to SayyidunāḤamzah, from kuffār. So he was killing him. And ninety thousand of them was killed, and they finished. They are attracting people. They make people to die on themself, for nothing.
All this until nowadays, many people coming like this people. Millions of people, they was killed and destroyed by these people, which taking them out of way. So for this, until thesedays, there are many people like this. We must be very careful about this. What sharī‘ah, what ṭarīqah saying, you must follow this. If you see anything wrong from people you can ask. We have this machine – every time they use it for bad thing. Alsowe will use for good thing, so we have everywhere somebody to ask, if it is wrong, if it is right. Why we are saying this? Because many people claiming they are following, they are from our ṭarīqah, and they are doing some wrong thing.
But the worst one, yesterday I hear from Central Asia, one real dajjāl, antichrist. This, Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam saying, at the end time there will be many antichrists before real one, the big one. Must be many of them. This one also very bad, and he claim he is taking permission from ṭarīqah from me. I don`t know – Not I don`t know, I never – we cannot, give anything from this. But he is, what they doing this? For
Page298
cheating our people who following ṭarīqah and to follow them. And they are cheating them: “We will make you more closer for Allāh. You will be higher station.“ And they take from [them] money and they take make very bad thing and not acceptable, not for sharī‘ah. For even for normal life, not acceptable. These people they are real shayṭān. They are real antichrist. So we are telling many time for people, but still some people cheated by these people. And in our ijāzah we say, if anyone – we give this ijāzah for who leading group – if you have, you came, come against the sharī‘ah and against ṭarīqah, It is not accepatable. You will be thrown from this. This is our way. We are not accept anything against sharī‘ah. And it is, you must think, if you do sin you do wrong thing, never you go high station, like what they say, they claim. They are cheater, cheating people. Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam saying, “Man ghashshanā fa-laysaminnā.“ Who cheats us is not from us.
So, be careful, very careful. Because shayṭān he most happy to destroy believer people. Other people he has had them already. But if the believers they are doing this, he will be very happy. Don`t make shayṭān happy, because you destroy yourself forever, not only for now. In this life also they destroy their family, they destroy their world, themselves... Everything they destroy for this shayṭān people. Even when you see, you look for somebody in his face, you know if he is good or not good. And this is also, Subhan Allah, Allāh make them like very ugly... very ugly people, as they don`t have any face. Their face, very ugly face they have. Be careful from this, oh our beloved followers. We are not happy to something to happen like this for you.
Allāh help us. Allāh save us from these people.

TO BE BELOVED OF ALLĀH Sunday, 24 April 2023 / 4 Shawwal 1444
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunassohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Our Holy Prophet is praised in this āyatu l-karīmah: Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem: “Qul inkuntum tuḥibbūnaLlāha fa-ttabi‘ūnī yuḥbibkumuLlāhu wa-yaghfirlakum dhunūbakum“(3:31). “If you love Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla, follow me and Allāh will love you. He will forgive you. He will forgive your sins.“ Our Holy Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam is saying that this is the key point. Following the actions of our Holy Prophet brings the pleasure of Allāh. You will be loved in the presence of Allāh. Allāh loves those who walk on his way. You should love those whom he loves. Whatever he loves, you should love it. Striving to do as he did, whatever he did, as much as you can, brings you the pleasure and love of Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla.
Whatever your ego dislikes, any kind of thing, you should love it for the sake and the pleasure of our Holy Prophet, for his love. It is okay, for the little things, if you can`t love them. But sometimes there are people beloved of our Holy Prophet. There are people whom he loves. Loving them brings you goodness. Hating them brings you loss. May Allāh protect us. You must love Ahlu l-Bayt. You must love ṣaḥābah. You must love Khulafā’u r-Rāshidūn and the four khulafā’. You must love Muslims. You must help them so that Allāh helps you. Otherwise, if you say, “I don`t love this one“– Who are you not to love? What is that you cannot share with them? What do you know about it? You don`t know.
Page300
These people even forget events that happened yesterday. To dare to hate ṣaḥābah means hating our Holy Prophet. People who do this attract the wrath of Allāh to themselves. Therefore, goodness brings goodness. And evil brings evil. It won`t bring anything else. Always think positively and about good things. And you will get goodness. Otherwise, you will live in sadness and sorrow all the time. And it will have no benefit in the next life, ākhirah. The way of our Holy Prophet ṣalláLlāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is beautiful. It is the way of salvation. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla has shown it in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmush-Sha’n. In short, if you want the love of Allah, follow our Holy Prophet. Love what he did and love what he loves and dislike what he doesn`t love. All your work will go smoothly and you will be a beloved servant of Allāh. If you are a disliked servant, your work will be useless then.
Also, “Qulaṭī‘ūLlāhawa-r-rasūla, fa-in tawallaw fa-innaLlāhalā yuḥibbu l-kāfirīn“ (3:32). “Obey Allāh. Obey His Prophet, His Rasūl. Allāh doesn`t like kuffār.“ This is the second important point, to follow Allah and the Prophet. Whoever doesn`t follow him and and turns his back on him, he is not loved in Allāh`s eyes. He doesn`t like him.
Sometimes there are nonsense people. They are called humanists. They say you should love all people. I don`t love those whom Allāh doesn`t love. I don`t love enemies of Allāh. And I don`t love those who go against Allāh. You must not love those whom Allāh doesn`t love. If Allāh gives guidance, then they can be loved. If not, their place is separate and our place is separate. May Allāh let us be in good places, Insha Allah. May we be on the side that is loved by Allāh, Insha Allah.

beating. If they do, it is only up to a point. Then they will run. You must do everything with goodness so that they follow you and don`t upset you. Otherwise, the more you apply force and push them, the more they will try to escape. There is nothing to run from. Therefore, if you want to do so, do it to your ego. If you want to make it difficult and do more, do it yourself. Let your ego do it. Oppress your ego. It is not like that with others. You can apply force only to your ego. And do goodness to others. Always show beauty. With beauty, they will have affection towards you. They will love you and they will follow you, and you will get what you want. You won`t get it done any other way.
May Allāh give wisdom to all of us. May He show us what we should do, not what our ego wants. May we know the good and the bad, Insha Allah.
Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam saying: “Bashshirū wa-lā tunaffirū, yassirū wa-lātu‘assirū.“ Everything you make it easy, make it not difficult, and give good tiding for people. Don’t give bad thing. This is adab of Prophet, adab of ṭarīqah, adab of Islām: to be good with people and to teach them with mercy, with quiet, not with difficult. Slowly, slowly can there be more love. Some people they want, [at] once they teach people, and everybody must do this as it is written by book. But people they cannot, many people they don’t know anything about religion, about what is sunnah, what is farḍ; so slowly, slowly you must teach them. Don’t make order them, “Do this, don’t do that,“ like this. They will be opposite. They will run away from you, and soon [from] what you teach them also.
This is problem. Many people they had this problem, and they left religion and not looking at all. Whole life just, for this people, they make them to do what they thought it is right. It is right, but you cannot every right you do it directly. Slowly, slowly they accept. But when you do by force, by... force and make them to do – maybe they can do a little bit. After, they will run away they will not come back at all for this. For this, we must teach other people or family or children with slowly, slowly –
Page281
with, make them to happy with you when you are doing this. Not, when they are seeing you, they left and run away.
We see many people they was very good family, very good people, but when father, he try to make them as he thought he is doing right, they make them run away and never come back to religion. This very unlucky for this, because we know this family, we know them. They are very good people, but since from father he thought he is doing good, he has no wisdom, they run away and never come back. We can, this people was, can win them in this way, way of Allāh way of Prophet, way of ṭarīqah, and they can teach other people. Now from this one man like this, maybe hundred people they are not coming to Islām or to religion or to respect this, even.
So, it is very important to be have some wisdom. For this, Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam saying: “Tafakkursā‘atinkhayrun min ‘ibādatisab‘īnsanah.“ To think one hour, what it is right, what is wrong, what we must do – better than worshiping seventy years. Seventy years, one hour better than this. Because in one hour, maybe you can win everything. But in seventy years, only – other people they win. But in seventy years, only you maybe win; other people, maybe they are not happy.
For this, we are, Mawlānā Shaykh all time he was tough for himself. Never he was tough for other people. All time, he make them to be happy with him. He give them very easy thing to do. From very easy thing, after, they do everything. This is for his barakah.
Insha Allah, Allāh make us, all of us to have this wisdom and to be good with other people, with us also, Insha Allah.

DON’T BE PROUD IN FRONT OF ALLĀH Tuesday, 18 of April 2023 / 27 Ramadan 1444
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunassohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem: “Fa-lā taghurrannakumu l-ḥayātu ddunyā wa-lā yaghurrannakum bi-Llāhi l-gharūr“ (31:33). ṢadaqaLlāhu l‘aẓīm.
Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says: “Don`t be cheated by the life of this world and don`t be proud.““I am better than these people, I have more wealth and property, my rank is higher.“ A person who is proud of his life in this world is an idiot. Because this world does not belong to anyone and it won`t belong to you.Moreover, it is unclear what will happen to it in the end. Everything can happen in this world. Therefore, it is important to be on the way of Allāh and do not go against Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla.
Your pride can take you to such destruction that you won`t recognize Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. You won`t want Him or accept Him. Pride is something that comes from arrogance. During the last years, it has increased a lot in this world. They think they are important and don`t accept Allāh. They don`t accept because of their pride and arrogance. Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla says: “Beware of doing this.“ Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla is ordering people, out of His mercy, to not do this. He is warning them. He is alerting them. You will be the loser if you think you are important in this life of two days. This is not harmful to others. This badness that is done will turn back on yourselves. It will bring loss to you.Therefore, the way of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is the way of humbleness of believers.
Page283
Humbleness is something Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla loves in believers. Pride is not good at all. Especially, people who are proud by being cheated by this world, will only destroy and ruin themselves. No matter how high your rank is, no matter if you own the whole world, even if you take control of this world, it has no value in the presence of Allāh. The value of one believer is more precious than all of these. The value of a believer is more precious than millions and billions of those who don`t believe and who don`t ask for forgiveness. Therefore, be from the precious ones in the presence of Allāh. Don`t be cheated by looking at others. Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla says: “Don`t let them cheat you.“ May Allāh make us from His beloved people, Insha Allah.
Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla saying in Qur’ān: “Fa-lā taghurrannakumu l-ḥayātu d-dunyā wa-lā yaghurrannakum bi-Llāhi l-gharūr“ (31:33). ṢadaqaLlāhu l-‘aẓīm. He said, Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla: “Don’t be cheated with this life, earthly life and you be proud or brave in front of Allāh.” This life, it is nothing, just very short, very difficult for people, who are not believer. They thought they`re having everything and they`re very proud. They say, “We have this money, we have this knowledge, we are professor, we are doctor, we are... have company or controlling whole world. We doing that, we done that.“ And they`re proud and not accepting the Creator, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, even. They are very proud, not accept Him. No, nothing this, this is... we not believe on this.
This is what shayṭān these days make this people, to make, to destroy themselves. It is fashion now everywhere in world to be... They thought they are brave in front of Allāh and they can say: “We are not believe in You.” But where they`re not brave – when they`re facing people. They`re afraid from even their shadow, these people. Nighttime they`re afraid from darkness. Any small voice coming, they`re very afraid. But then, where they must afraid, they`re not afraid. Allāh make them to whole life miserable and afraid from everything. Because they are thought they are brave. When somebody claim something, Allāh, if it is not in right way, Allāh make him to suffer from this, what he’s claim.Allāh make, ask for people: “Come. Don’t be cheated with this luxury life, with life
Page284
you are living and to come against Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla.” Come to His way because His way most valuable. One mu’min, believer, he is better more valuable from billion of non-believers, ten billionsof non-believers. If they are believer, okay they are valuable also, but with Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla, there is nothing, not at all [like] believer. There is ḥadīth: “If this whole world it is valuable as wing of mosquito, Allāh will not give one drop of water for non-believer.” But this is even, whole this world and what is value of maybe billion of mosquito, what is value for this? Even He said, not billion, one mosquito.
This example, it is unbelievable what ḥadīth and Qur’ān, they give from wisdom and teaching people, to know, to give them – how it is not valuable at all, this life, this world. When you are not following, accepting Allāh, you are, don’t have any valuable. Even you are president, your whole, may be if you are whole world under your control, you are not, nothing. Don’t think you are thing and you be proud, Allāh, He is not happy with this.
Allah make us from people who He is happy with them, Insha Allah, valuable in His divine presence, Insha Allah.

THE REWARDS OF FASTING RAMAḌĀN Thursday, 20 April 2023 / 29 Ramadan 1444
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunassohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Alḥamdulilāh for these favours. Thanksand praise to Allāh for the favours that He gives. We have reached the last day of the holy month of Ramaḍān. Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla will give great rewards tonight to those believers who spent this Ramaḍān fasting, making i‘tikāf, giving zakāh and performing their prayers. He says, “I know the amount. Only I know. No one else know how much I will give.“ Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla is generous. What He gives is countless and unlimited. May it be a blessing and great good tidings for people and believers who appreciate this beautiful month, who spend it as Allāh wants and as Allah loves.
Our Holy Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam has said and promised great rewards at the end of this month. It is the word of Allāh‘Azza waJalla. His word is true. Therefore, may it be blessed for everyone. Because it is such a holy month that a person who doesn`t fast on purpose loses a lot of things. People will regret it later. They will want to make it up. It is okay to make it up, but when they make it up, because they purposely didn`t fast, they have to fast sixty days kaffārah and after that they can start fasting their missed days.
For all missed days, people can make them up slowly. But there is a “but” here as well. They cannot attain the same virtue. Even if they make kaffārah and fast their missed days, our Holy Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam says they cannot attain the same virtue. Even if they fast all their lives, if they break it only on ‘Īd and continue to fast
Page286
on the other days for years, they cannot attain the virtue of that one day [they missed]. It is so valuable. People are missing it. They are wasting it without caring. But if Allāh shows them guidance, it is better that they make it up but they will not get the precious things and rewards they missed. May Allāh protect us all. May Allāh help us protect the obligations (farḍ) ordered by Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla. Farḍ is the most important thing. Certainly, you cannot have it when you miss sunnah as well. But farḍ is most precious. Therefore, we must not miss our prayers. We shouldn`t delay making them up. This is an important matter. People must certainly be careful about them.Shukr to Allāh, tonight is the eve of ‘Īd. It is one of the virtuous nights. Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla gave us Ramaḍān, and He gave us the last day, the eve of ‘Īd . It is among the holy nights like Laylatu l-Qadr, Laylatu l-Mi‘rāj, Laylatu l-Barā’ah. Just like those nights, the eve of ‘Īd is also blessed and Jum‘ah is blessed. This time they have come together. There will be more barakah, Insha Allah. May Allāh give you barakah. May Allāhmake all of us steadfast on the way of truth. May others have the means of guidance. May Allāh give guidance to them so that they do not miss these virtues, Insha Allah. May it be blessed for us all, Insha Allah.
Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam say, “Allāh, He giving good tiding for ummah who are, they are make this month of Ramaḍān and doing what Allāh, He like to do, as fasting day time, praying nighttime and doing charity and doing i‘tikāf or what all this.“ Allāhsaid, I, Aṣṣawmulī, wa-anāajzibih.”“Fasting [is] for Me and I will give what I want.“ And He is generous, He will be, Insha Allah, without counting. You will be surprised when you see what you get in for this. Allāh reward you in this month. In ākhirah you will be really pleased,shocked. Unbelievable what Allāh give you, for mu’min, for Muslim who know value of this month. And Alhamdulilah, we are, even without seeing anything, we feel very good, Alhamdulilah, from this blessing month which it is for ummah of Prophet ṣalláLlāhu‘alayhiwasallam, it given. And really it is very blessed thing.Many people they don’t know, most of people and what, they – people who giving value for this month, very few. But other, they are not giving value, they are going... Allāh give hidāyah for them also we saying, because they miss so many thing.
Page287
Even many people, before, they can be not give value for this month, but after they are giving value and beginning too fast. But when you, if you miss one day from Ramaḍān, you must make it again, after. You must fast one day for each day you missed. But, if you are knowing and insisting, but without knowing it is maybe Allāh‘afuww. But when, if you know, first you must fast sixty days for as before making this fast what you missed. One day, five days, ten days one month, ten months, twenty months. Each day, not for each day sixty days. Only first one, sixty days. After, anytime, slowly slowly you must make it, because this is obligatory for you.
You have to give it back from your side for Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. But it is also good for who can do, Allāh give him hidāyah and give, become, making to finish what he not fast, to fast them. But also Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam saying, they cannot reach the value of what he who fast in its time of Ramaḍān. Every time, the time of fasting, even for one day Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam saying: “If you fast whole your life without cutting, years and years, it is not value for one day blessed, this what you missed.” So, but also, if they even they know they cannot reach this value, but must make it again. Because, it is in ākhirah more difficult to make it. Allah give hidāyah for other people also and give you from His endless treasure, Insha Allah.And the end of this month also, this night of ‘Īd, the first of Shawwāl, it is also blessed night. Like Laylatu l-Qadr, like Isrā’ wa-l-Mi‘rāj, this night also blessed night. Allāh accept du‘ā’ and reward you more and more, in shā’aLlāh. And night of Friday also, same like this. This year coming all –‘Īd and Friday together. It will be more blessed, Insha Allah. Allāh bless you and Allāh make us to be with Sayyidunā l-Mahdī‘alayhi s-salām, Insha Allah. We hope, Insha Allah. Every time we are in need for him. Today, before tomorrow. Ummah it is in need for him, Insha Allah. Allāh make him to come quickly, Insha Allah.
Wa Minallah at-Tawfeeq, Al-Fatiha.

THREE ‘ĪDS TODAY Friday, 21 April2023 / 1 Shawwal 1444
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunassohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
May Allāh bless our feast. May it be accepted in the sight of Allāh. On this ‘Īd, Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla shows the angels what Muslims have done, and is happy. Therefore, may it be blessed. This is from the real feasts. There are many things that are considered holidays now. They have neither virtue nor barakah. The things made precious by Allāh ‘Azza waJalla are valuable. The rest has no value. Even if it seems valuable at first, it later becomes clear that it is worthless. People waste their time. They waste their lives.
Shukr to Allāh, today is ‘Īd. And shukr to Allāh, they say there are two ‘Īds: ‘Īdu l-Fiṭr and Jum‘ah. Jum‘ah is a feast as well. As it is a feast, some people who know only by hearsay claim there is no wedding between two ‘Īds. They say a marriage is not made then. That is not between ‘Īdu l-Fiṭr and ‘Īdu l-Aḍḥá, but between `Īd and Jum‘ah. As Jum‘ah is also a Muslim holiday, there is no chance, no time in between. It is okay, it is accepted. But there is not enough time. People mistakenly can call permissible things sinful or call accepted things unacceptable. That is not important. Shukr to Allāh, what is important is that we have two feasts today.
And the third one is that it is the birthday of Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim, according to Gregorian calendar. The twenty-first of April is the blessed day when he came to this world. That is the means of joy and relief for
Page289
us. Because he is example of the āyah we recited in the khuṭbah a while ago. His Awliyā’uLlāh, “Alāinna Awliyā’aLlāh ilā khawfun ‘alayhim wa-lā hum yaḥzanūn“ (10:62). Awliyā’ of Allāh have no fear. They have no sadness. They fear and respect Allāh. They are the people who believe in and fear Allāh. Good tidings for them, both here and hereafter.This is a big thing. Because people dive into this world and think they can find everything in it. They forget about the next world. Everything is good for Awliyā’uLlāh, even in this world, as well. Allāh helps them. And He gave them good tidings about the next world. “Lātabdīla li-kalimātiLlāh“ (10:64). The word of Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla cannot be changed. The promise of Allāh is true. Therefore, as the third reason for joy, we are celebrating and making shukr to Allāh for sitting at his feet. There are hundreds of thousands, millions of people all over the world who find salvation at his feet. We make shukr to Allāh for being with him.
It is said in ḥadīthsharīf who are the most beloved people of Allāh, the best loved people of Allāh. People are servants, created by Allāh. And the most beloved people are “anfa‘uhumli‘ayālih“; in the presence of Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla, the most beloved people are the people who benefit His servants. Awliyā’ means walī, the beloved, a person who is loved. And the most important thing for us is not to be loved by this and that one, but to be loved by Allāh. As long as Allāh loves you, everyone will love you. If Allāh doesn`t love you, do whatever you want, no one will care about or love you. Allāh makes others love those whom He loves.
Of course it is important to be loved by good people. It is better not to be loved by people who are not good. It is a good thing, too, so that good ones are with good ones. And bad ones will be good if Allāh gives them guidance. The door of goodness and the door of forgiveness are not closed. Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla is the one who forgives mistakes. You make one mistake in dunyā, and even though you repent and ask for forgiveness, they will throw you in jail or you will carry its punishment whatever it is. There is no other option. But Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is for-
Page290
giving.Therefore, join the way of Allāh so that you become beloved of Allāh and attain those good tidings. and you have goodness here and hereafter. This is the promise of Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla.
We are, Alhamdulilah... Happy ‘Īd, Insha Allah. This ‘Īdu l-Fiṭr, feast of fasting, after Ramaḍān finish. The real feast, it is this one. And there is only two feasts for believer, for Muslim. We celebrate and – small, young, old – everyone celebrates. Even they are not practicing, but still, they are celebrating this feast. They are going, visiting each other. And children they are playing, running, they have some... Old time there was more enjoyment for small children. But now it`s okay. Even now they are feeling for this feast, ‘Īd, and they will become happy. This happiness, from Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, which it is given by Him, and, Insha Allah, who happy with this, Insha Allah, give him even little bit in his heart belief, īmān. It will grow, Insha Allah. For this, we are happy with this ‘Īd.
And today, Jum‘ah, Friday, also feast for believer, for Muslim. Allāh give this day for Muslim. Every week we celebrate, but, of course, the ‘Īd not like other ‘Īd we celebrate. Just, we celebrate. So, today, there are two ‘Īd, two feasts. We are happy with this. But, I don`t know if anyone from Turkish people, they saying: “You cannot marry between two ‘Īds, two feasts, between ‘Īdu l-Aḍḥá and [Fiṭr],“ but it is really, reality, if coming to Friday, so Friday also ‘Īd. So, between this, it is difficult to make marriage, to make nikāḥ in this two hours, three hours. For this, they said. But people, they are mixing between what is, can be, or cannot be, or between to be ḥalāl or ḥarām. So, but normally, no time to make this. And Alhamdulilah, we are happy from morning. Becoming more happy with Jum‘ahalso.And Alhamdulilah, today also, there is third ‘Īd for us. For who following ṭarīqah, who following sharī‘ah– especially for Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim follower. It is day – birthday of Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim. Twenty-one April in 1922, he honoured, light –Allāh give light with him to this earth, which it was the real, the most darkest time. In time of Islām which, Khalīf– they was throwing out Emperor of Islām, destroying with this non-believer, and they thought
Page291
they finished Islām. Because, when khilāfah (caliphate) finish, nothing. All they exile the Khalīfah and other, whole salṭanat people, and they thought they finished Islām.
Alhamdulilah that time, Allāh send Mawlānā Shaykh. It was his birth time. It was very terrible time for whole planet, for whole Earth. Everywhere mess, illness, hunger. No hope at all. But, Alhamdulilah, from no hope, Allāh bring light, bring hope for this. And this, there was one of our old murīd, who is relative to my auntie. He was murīd of Shaykh Sharafu d-Dīn ad-Dāghistānī. And that time, he was saying to Mawlānā Shaykh ‘Abdu Llāh ad-Dāghistānī, “Today, one of our child, they coming to this dunyā, to Earth.“ And even he describe him. He said that he will be opening – many non-Muslims become Muslim on his hand. Even he gave his number of shoes, his feet [shoe size]. He was saying, giving tiding to Shaykh ‘Abdu Llāh ad-Dāghistānī, and it was real good tiding.
Alhamdulilah, we are following him. We are happy Allāh make us to follow him. He give light for whole world. Everywhere coming, even until now, many, still more and more people coming through him, alḥamduliLlāh.
He is – in āyat we read in khuṭbah: Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm: “Alāinna awliyā’aLlāh ilā khawfun‘ alayhim wa-lā hum yaḥzanūn. Alladhīna āmanū wa-kānū yattaqūn“ (10:62-64). “Beloved one for Allāh, there are no fear for them, and no sadness.“ And, because they are believer and they are afraid from Allāh to do anything wrong, they have: “Lahumu l-bushráfī l-ḥayāti d-dunyā wa-fī l-ākhiratilātabdīla likalimātiLlāh“ (10:64). Allāh help them in this world and ākhirah. Nothing can affect them. This, good tidings they said, and no changing for word of Allāh. Allāh`s word, not like our word. This is for human being to see how good to be with Allāh, not to be away from Him. Because, in dunyā and in ākhirah, in this life and other life, they will be winner. Nothing affect them. Nothing make them sad or fear for them. Because many, maybe, people they are working in dunyā. They succeed in dunyā, but for ākhirah, they don`t have anything.
Page292
But Awliyā’uLlāh, they are for dunyā and for ākhirah. And they are bringing people also with them. They are benefit for human being. Ḥadīth of Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam we said, “Aḥabbuhum iláLlāhi anfa‘uhumli‘ayālih.““People, they are servant for Allāh, and the most beloved one for Him, who help His servants.“ Alhamdulilah, Mawlānā Shaykh, whole life he was helping in everything, for spiritual, and also material, also. All time, he is looking to help people, from his young time until end of his life. Allāh bless him.
We are thanking him, because until now, with his barakah, you are coming, because his barakah not cutting. It is still running like big river, Insha Allah. Allāh make us with him, Insha Allah, forever.

A DAJJĀL IN CENTRAL ASIA Saturday, 23 April 2023 / 3 Shawwal 1444
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunassohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem: “Inna d-dīna‘ indaLlāhi l-Islām“ (3:19). The religion in the sight of Allāh is Islām. All prophets are in the religion of Islām. The religion of Allāh is Islām. There is no other religion apart from it. They say interfaith dialogue. There isn`t such a thing. There isn’t more than one religion. The religion since Ādam‘alayhi ssalām until our Holy Prophet is Islām. Whatever is ordered in the religon of Islām, the same is ordered by sharī‘ah and ṭarīqah. Ṭarīqah and sharī‘ah are one. They are not different. They are Islām. They are the ways that show Islām. And they are the way of our Holy Prophet.
Certainly, there are the religions of shayṭān opposing his way. People think of it as religion. That religion is those who do everything that shayṭān tells them, and say, “Don`t worship Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla. Come and worship other things.“ There are many people who mislead others in this way. Nowadays they are numerous. There were liars even in the time of our Holy Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam. There were many fake prophets at that time. But all of them are gone. They have vanished.
Our Holy Prophet had many miracles. His biggest miracle is the Qur’ān. And he has other miracles. He brought water out of dry wells. He put his saliva on the eye of Sayyidunā‘Alī and cured him. Another ṣaḥābīyhad lost his eye in the battle. He put it back in place and cured
Page294
him, too. Our Holy Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam had many miracles.
The fake prophets had the inverse effect. The opposite. Musaylimatu lKadhdhāb means Musaylimah the Liar. One man had a sore eye and he went to him. He spat on his eye, and both of his eyes became blind. There was only a little water in a well. He spat in it, and it dried out completely. Allāh shames them like this. Yet, there are many stupid people who follow them. There are so many of them. When Musaylimah was in the castle, 90,000 people became kāfir, because they were with him. They left the religion. And they died with him. So many people leave the right way and don`t know what they are doing. They are destroying themselves. Since the time of our Holy Prophet until now, it is the same. Every day you hear of something new. There are small ones and large ones.
Our religion and our ṭarīqah are clear. Our way is the way based on truth, sharī‘ah, Qur’ān, and sunnah, and it is connected to our Holy Prophet. Whoever goes outside it is not accepted in our ṭarīqah. We don`t accept them. There are people who claim to have taken permission from us, and they mislead people to other ways. They have nothing to do with us. When we give permission, it is written in our permission that they are allowed to do things on the way of ṭarīqah and sharī‘ah. The permission of the ones who go outside of that is cancelled. We have nothing to do with them. We advise them to fear Allāh.
Yesterday we heard about a new, even worse one. Our Holy Prophet said there will be dajjāls in the end of times. There is the biggest one who will appear at last. But there will be many dajjāls before him. So there is fitnah in Central Asia. One man has appeared and does strange things, perverted things. He does all kinds of dirtiness and evil. And he claims to have taken permission from Shaykh. There is no such permission. No permission for perversion. We don`t give permission to things that are opposite sharī‘ah. The brothers should share this, because shayṭān is also attacking those who are on the right path by saying, “We
Page295
will raise you. Your rank will increase. Give one thousand dollars and we will increase you.“ And then they make people do all kinds of dirt. They also leave the way. All kinds of trouble reach them then. Jinn and everything attack them. Craziness and jinn. Everything may come.
Therefore, beware and watch out for these people. If there is something you feel doubtful about, make sure to ask. There are people to ask. And there are these machines now that share all kinds of dirtiness all over the place. Yet you may use them for goodness. You may use them to ask, anywhere. You will get your answer, about whether it is right or not. For example, someone says, “Such a man says this, and does that. It doesn`t feel right to us. How come?“ Of course it doesn`t. What they do cannot seem right to normal people. Therefore, be careful. There are always a lot of these Musaylimah liars, a lot of dajjāls. Beware of them. Beware of going to hell by wishing to increase your rank. Because what they do is literally misleading from religion and losing īmān. May Allāh protect us.
These poor people in Central Asia are hungry for religion. They think these people are religious and Muslim and are following them. Don`t be cheated by them. It is clear from their faces. They have no mercy. Allāh made their faces deceitful. There is al-Masīḥu d-Dajjāl. That is exactly what they are. Their faces are mixed up with each other. May Allāh protect us. May Allāh protect us from their evil. May Allāh protect Muslims and all people from their evil, Insha Allah.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem: “Inna d-dīna‘indaLlāhi l-Islām“ (3:19). ṢadaqaLlāhu l-‘aẓīm. Religión, Allah saying in Qur’ān, Islām, religion of Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla. His religion, Islām. Islām only for Prophet Muḥammad ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam? No. This religion come from – not, our Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam, he make this religion – [it is] from Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla. From Ādam‘alayhi s-salām until Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam–Islām. There is, they said, interfaith. They... Christianity, Jewish and then Islām, we must do gathering and discuss. This – religions? No. Only religion, only one. Only Islām. All prophets,
Page296
they were following this. But that time, slowly, slowly, until coming toProphetṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam, it is complete, this religion, our religion. And it is – What we are following in ṭarīqah? We following Islām, we following sharī‘ah. Ṭarīqah, it is heart of sharī‘ah. Without sharī‘ah, no ṭarīqah. Without ṭarīqah, no sharī‘ah also, because they are mixing. Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam, exactly he gave what ṭarīqah we are following. We are following Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam. And of course, from many people coming to make people, whispering for them, to make them doubt for this. But religion only one.
And many people, since Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam until now, they trying to destroy this Islām. But they cannot. But what they do? They destroy people who following them, to finish them. As time of Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam, also even in the time – his time – this liar prophets, they appear around in Arabian peninsula: in Yemen, in Ḥaḍramūt, in Gulf area, many of them. But, they died – they killed and they destroyed, all these. Many of them... The most famous one, Musaylimah. Musaylimatu l-Kadhdhāb. Meaning? Meaning, Musaylimah the Liar. Because he was there, he claim he is prophet, and he send, like he have one book for himself for people to worshiping with this book.
And normally prophets, they have a miracle. Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam, many miracle. One of them, to cure eyes of Sayyidunā‘Alī when he was, has illness in his eye, and he spit on his eye and he was opening his eye. He seeing, [as if] nothing [had happened]. Other one, one battle one of ṣaḥābah he get, his eyes, throwing one arrow, and it coming down, and he was holding [the eye] in his hand. Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam took his spit and put [the eye] in place and become again as nothing [had happened]. And there was also water coming from his hand. From well also, when he spit in water – well, no water. Coming whole water from well.
And this [Musaylimah] he, everything, he was imitating Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam. And so once, one of people they was have, his
Page297
eye, it is pain from inside. And, “Come, come. I will make you good.“ And he spat in his eyes. He become blind. Other, they said, “There is no water here, very few water in this well.““Okay, I am coming.“ He spit on water. Well – water going out, no... drying. But people still following this people because they are idiot and they have to... following their desire from their ego. They are going after them. Even when this Musaylimah, he last time putting, fighting with him. He killed more than thirty or twenty thousand of ṣaḥābah. Eight hundred from them, they wasḥāfiẓ Qur’ān. They knowing Qur’ān by heart and they was very important for Islām. But all in this war. But at the end, they surround in their castle – fort, and they killed them. All of them, ninety thousand of them, was killed there with him. Who killed him, he was Waḥshī. He is who killed SayyidunāḤamzah. Because he said I – after he become Muslim he said – I will kill one, it must be equal to SayyidunāḤamzah, from kuffār. So he was killing him. And ninety thousand of them was killed, and they finished. They are attracting people. They make people to die on themself, for nothing.
All this until nowadays, many people coming like this people. Millions of people, they was killed and destroyed by these people, which taking them out of way. So for this, until thesedays, there are many people like this. We must be very careful about this. What sharī‘ah, what ṭarīqah saying, you must follow this. If you see anything wrong from people you can ask. We have this machine – every time they use it for bad thing. Alsowe will use for good thing, so we have everywhere somebody to ask, if it is wrong, if it is right. Why we are saying this? Because many people claiming they are following, they are from our ṭarīqah, and they are doing some wrong thing.
But the worst one, yesterday I hear from Central Asia, one real dajjāl, antichrist. This, Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam saying, at the end time there will be many antichrists before real one, the big one. Must be many of them. This one also very bad, and he claim he is taking permission from ṭarīqah from me. I don`t know – Not I don`t know, I never – we cannot, give anything from this. But he is, what they doing this? For
Page298
cheating our people who following ṭarīqah and to follow them. And they are cheating them: “We will make you more closer for Allāh. You will be higher station.“ And they take from [them] money and they take make very bad thing and not acceptable, not for sharī‘ah. For even for normal life, not acceptable. These people they are real shayṭān. They are real antichrist. So we are telling many time for people, but still some people cheated by these people. And in our ijāzah we say, if anyone – we give this ijāzah for who leading group – if you have, you came, come against the sharī‘ah and against ṭarīqah, It is not accepatable. You will be thrown from this. This is our way. We are not accept anything against sharī‘ah. And it is, you must think, if you do sin you do wrong thing, never you go high station, like what they say, they claim. They are cheater, cheating people. Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam saying, “Man ghashshanā fa-laysaminnā.“ Who cheats us is not from us.
So, be careful, very careful. Because shayṭān he most happy to destroy believer people. Other people he has had them already. But if the believers they are doing this, he will be very happy. Don`t make shayṭān happy, because you destroy yourself forever, not only for now. In this life also they destroy their family, they destroy their world, themselves... Everything they destroy for this shayṭān people. Even when you see, you look for somebody in his face, you know if he is good or not good. And this is also, Subhan Allah, Allāh make them like very ugly... very ugly people, as they don`t have any face. Their face, very ugly face they have. Be careful from this, oh our beloved followers. We are not happy to something to happen like this for you.
Allāh help us. Allāh save us from these people.

TO BE BELOVED OF ALLĀH Sunday, 24 April 2023 / 4 Shawwal 1444
Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidal Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya RasulAllah, Madad Ya As’habi RasulAllah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Shaykh Abdullah Daghestani, Shaykh Nazim Al-Haqqani. Dastur. Tariqatunassohba, wa khayru fil jamiyya.
Our Holy Prophet is praised in this āyatu l-karīmah: Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem: “Qul inkuntum tuḥibbūnaLlāha fa-ttabi‘ūnī yuḥbibkumuLlāhu wa-yaghfirlakum dhunūbakum“(3:31). “If you love Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla, follow me and Allāh will love you. He will forgive you. He will forgive your sins.“ Our Holy Prophet ṣalláLlāhu’alayhi wa-sallam is saying that this is the key point. Following the actions of our Holy Prophet brings the pleasure of Allāh. You will be loved in the presence of Allāh. Allāh loves those who walk on his way. You should love those whom he loves. Whatever he loves, you should love it. Striving to do as he did, whatever he did, as much as you can, brings you the pleasure and love of Allāh‘Azza wa-Jalla.
Whatever your ego dislikes, any kind of thing, you should love it for the sake and the pleasure of our Holy Prophet, for his love. It is okay, for the little things, if you can`t love them. But sometimes there are people beloved of our Holy Prophet. There are people whom he loves. Loving them brings you goodness. Hating them brings you loss. May Allāh protect us. You must love Ahlu l-Bayt. You must love ṣaḥābah. You must love Khulafā’u r-Rāshidūn and the four khulafā’. You must love Muslims. You must help them so that Allāh helps you. Otherwise, if you say, “I don`t love this one“– Who are you not to love? What is that you cannot share with them? What do you know about it? You don`t know.
Page300
These people even forget events that happened yesterday. To dare to hate ṣaḥābah means hating our Holy Prophet. People who do this attract the wrath of Allāh to themselves. Therefore, goodness brings goodness. And evil brings evil. It won`t bring anything else. Always think positively and about good things. And you will get goodness. Otherwise, you will live in sadness and sorrow all the time. And it will have no benefit in the next life, ākhirah. The way of our Holy Prophet ṣalláLlāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is beautiful. It is the way of salvation. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla has shown it in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmush-Sha’n. In short, if you want the love of Allah, follow our Holy Prophet. Love what he did and love what he loves and dislike what he doesn`t love. All your work will go smoothly and you will be a beloved servant of Allāh. If you are a disliked servant, your work will be useless then.
Also, “Qulaṭī‘ūLlāhawa-r-rasūla, fa-in tawallaw fa-innaLlāhalā yuḥibbu l-kāfirīn“ (3:32). “Obey Allāh. Obey His Prophet, His Rasūl. Allāh doesn`t like kuffār.“ This is the second important point, to follow Allah and the Prophet. Whoever doesn`t follow him and and turns his back on him, he is not loved in Allāh`s eyes. He doesn`t like him.
Sometimes there are nonsense people. They are called humanists. They say you should love all people. I don`t love those whom Allāh doesn`t love. I don`t love enemies of Allāh. And I don`t love those who go against Allāh. You must not love those whom Allāh doesn`t love. If Allāh gives guidance, then they can be loved. If not, their place is separate and our place is separate. May Allāh let us be in good places, Insha Allah. May we be on the side that is loved by Allāh, Insha Allah.
