SufiHub – Tariqatul Naqshbandiyyatil Aliyyah (Sheikh Muhammad 'Adil)

A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.

Now we will say a few words, following the order of Mawlana Shaykh Nazimق as we are in Dergah insha’Allah, after Fajr prayer it will be beneficial for all of us InSha’Allah.

People now all over the world don’t want the many Sunnahs our Holy Prophet ﷺ and the many beneficial things for humanity. They have no idea even about the simplest one that everyone does. They don’t know that it’s bad. They think it’s normal. They eat and drink while standing. It is not from Sunnah. It is not beneficial for people either; it causes harm.

You must drink while sitting down. You must eat while sitting down. At least, you must do it as it is a Sunnah of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. You will also attain the reward of a hundred Shaheed, and it is good for your health. Children, youngsters and everyone drink bottles and drinks on the way while standing. Whereas, if it was a cup they won’t be able to drink while walking.

Only Zamzam is to be drunk while standing. It mustn’t be drank while sitting. You must drink it while standing up. Secondly, after performing ablution, take a sip while standing towards Kiblah, with the Basmala. Apart from these all of them must be done while sitting down.

You see everywhere at restaurants, people standing up while eating and drinking. People think there’s no difference. They say, “It doesn’t matter. Standing and sitting are the same.” No, they are not the same.

The words of our Holy Prophet ﷺ are important for Muslims. His ﷺ orders are important. When done, Allāh ﷻ gives rewards, Thawab and health to people.

May Allāh ﷻ be pleased with us all.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha

There are recited Qur’an Khatms, Surahs, Yasin, Tasbihat, Tahlil and Salawat. We gift them all to the soul of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, his ﷺ Ahlu l-Bayt and Sahabah, to the souls of all Anbiya, Awliya, Asfiya and Mashayikh. Especially our Shaykh Mawlana Shaykh Nazim, and Hajjah Anne. To the souls of all our passed ones. For goodness to come and evil to be gone.

Fajr Prayer – Berlin, Germany

A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.

AlhamduliLlah, we meet again. Our intention is to be a servant for Allāh ﷻ, for Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, for Islam. AlhamduliLlah we are in the month of the birth of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, Shahru l-Mawlid, RabihAl-Awwal. This is also a very blessed month. Whoever loves Prophet ﷺ, respects him ﷺ and praises ﷺ, fulfills the order of Allāh ﷻ and Allāh ﷻ loves him.

Everywhere in this world – there’s no difference between nations, or between colours (races), or between language – who praises Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, Allāh ﷻ loves him. It is Allāh’s ﷻ will, He ﷻ knows; we cannot say anything. But we are happy we are chosen to be among these people who praise Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. 

AlhamduliLlah, there is Masha’Allah this mosque – may Allāh ﷻ raise these people, Bosnian people. He ﷻ made them from among all this area to be Muslim. There are no Muslims, we cannot see. Allāh ﷻ chose them to be Muslims from all this area. Other people are not chosen; still in the same place, they are not praising and not believing. They don’t have belief. But this is not good for them. For this, who has this [Iman], must thank Allāh ﷻ every day: Shukran li-Llah, Shukran li-Llah. He must say this all the time; repeating this. And for everything that happens: Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says, nothing happens for the Muslim, for the believer without reward and without reason.

People in many places, even in our country, had forgot everything, forgot Islam, forgot everything about Islam. Allāh ﷻ sent something, and AlhamduliLlah Muslims came back. Everywhere is like this. So don’t be sorry for what happened. It happened and ended. There’s no need to be sorry. But if you are in the right way, you must be happy and thankful for Allāh ﷻ.

We are living in a difficult time, but this is the will of Allāh ﷻ. Those who are suffering like this, if they believe in Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla and love Prophet ﷺ, love his ﷺ four Khalifahs, his ﷺ family, his ﷺ Sahabah, then they are in the right way.

They must thank Allāh ﷻ. And this is what Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says, “The Mu’min must love what I ﷺ love. And if I ﷺ don’t love something, also he must not love or like him.” This is our scale; [the scale] of the real believer and real people who are following Tariqah. You find people who you thought are real believers, but they are not happy with the Sahabah, not happy with the Khalifah of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. You find some other ones who don’t like the family of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, not respecting Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. They see him ﷺ as an ordinary person. These are outside of the “Real believer” and they are in the wrong way. Maybe you see them doing everything. You think they are doing for Islam, but they are not, at all. Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam described these people. He ﷺ said,, these people know the Qur’an by heart, they know Hadith by heart, but the Qur’an doesn’t go down here [Mawlana signs to the heart], it just reaches to their mouth, it’s on their tongue only. And they will run away from Islam and Iman as the arrow leaves the bow. Because Islam needs Iman. Iman is what holds it. And you can only find Iman in those whom we described: Ahlu s-Sunnah wal Jama’ah and especially people of Tariqah.

For this, we are warning people because these days are dangerous days.

Maybe people thought some people are right. They do something, they harm themselves without any benefit or reward from Allāh ﷻ. They harm themselves and harm others also; without any benefit. And they have no reward from Allāh ﷻ, because they do what they do for their benefit. They even destroy everything, but if their benefit is there, they can do anything. The Mu’min, Muslim has mercy.

Because this is the attribute of Allāh ﷻ: Ar-Rahman, Ar-Rahim.

And [the attribute] of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam also: “ ٌبِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ رَءُوف ٌ رَّح ِ يم”, 

“Bil-Mu’uminīna Ra’ūfun Raĥīmun”, “And to the believers is kind and merciful.”

(Qur’an 09:128).

For this, AlhamduliLlah we are thanking Allāh ﷻ to make us in his ﷺ way.

This way is AlhamduliLlah coming pure by miracle of Allāh ﷻ and continuing until Qiyamah. May Allāh ﷻ keep us in this way and help Islam. And send the real one to help us, Sayyidina Al-Mahdi ‘alayhi s-salam insha’Allah. To make the whole world purely Islam insha’Allah. With Islam, there will be no fear, no oppression, no depression, nothing. Every good thing comes with Islam: Barakah, mercy, happiness; all of this is coming insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Isha Prayer – Hannover, Germany

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

أَلَا لِلَّهِ ٱلدِّينُ ٱلْخَالِصُ

‘Ala li-Llahi d-Deenu l-Khaalisū’,

‘Unquestionably, for Allah is the pure religion.’
(Qur’ān 39:03).

Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says the religion of Islam is a pure religion. It is the beauty given by Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla to people for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. If mankind accepts it, they will have all kinds of goodness. If they believe in Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla with sincerity, if people do the things ordered by Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, they become sincere.

Sincerity is a great blessing. How can we have sincerity? 

When we do everything with the intention for Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, for the pleasure of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. There must also be a Murshid to walk you through that way which is for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. We need a Murshid to be saved. Sincere people know everything from Allah ﷻ. They rely on Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and have great comfort.

We have told this before, there is a kind of Awliya. All Awliya have different conditions and different principles. And there is a kind of Awliya who don’t interfere in the will of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla however it goes. They don’t make Dua for anyone. They don’t speak against anyone. They are in their own state. Certainly, not all Awliya are like that. This is just one group of Awliya. If the world collapses, they won’t care. They won’t get upset, and they won’t get happy. They are the sincere Awliya. All Awliya can be like that. But other Awliya have different duties they have to do. And this kind is a special kind. As we said, no matter if things burn down or collapse, whatever happens, it won’t differ for their hearts and minds. They say, “The will of Allah ﷻ is taking place. We don’t interfere in it at all. We never interfere.” There are not many of them. But there is such a kind. 

We make Du’a for people, ask for goodness, ask to be protected from the evil. Doing this is an order for us and some people. But some are special, as we said. We are saying this as an example, because Mu’mins must know this. In order to have sincerity, they must know this as well, that there are such Awliya.

These Awliya are special ones. If they interfere in something, if they have something in their hearts, it will be over for them. They are very few, as we said. People here say the three, the five, the seven and the forty for Awliya. They are different. And these ones are different from them. These have their duty. 

Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says,

بِهِم تُمْطَر ُون، بِهِم تُر ْ زَقُون ، بِهِم تُنْصَرُون

“Bihim tumṭarūn, bihim turzaqūn, bihim tunṣarūn.” “Rain falls upon you by their Barakah. Rizq (provision) comes to you by their means. You reach victory by their means.” Other Awliya have their duties. Rain comes for their honor, Rizq is given, and victory is attained. They have such duties. And they must do that.

The matter of sincerity is not to go astray from the right way. The right way is the way of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. You must believe that whatever your Rizq is, it will come to you. You must work. Allah ﷻ has given everyone’s Rizq through different ways. You must pay attention to earning Rizq from Halal (permissible) ways. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla helps hardworking people who do it for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. They must say “I must earn this Rizq to provide for my children, to bring them up as good people” and take care of them. They must take care of them to make them good people so that they are useful for others in the future. 

Who are the useful people? People with Iman. It is important to bring up people with Iman. When they have Iman, they attain the pleasure of Allahﷻ. Sincerity grows in them. And they become beloved servants of Allah ﷻ. They become from the Awliya of Allah ﷻ.

The Awliya of Allah ﷻ should not only show miracles. The biggest miracle is: “ ِأَجَلُّ الْكَرَامَاتِ دَو َ امُ التَّو ْ فِيق”, “Ajallu l-karāmāt dawāmu t-tawfīq”. 

Being always in goodness is the biggest Karāmāh for everyone. If people fight their egos, they reach the level of this Karāmāh. People who are always in goodness, in good deeds and worship attain the biggest Karāmāh. They become beloved servants of Allah ﷻ.

Therefore, sincerity is not to ask for anything. Even if you ask for everything worldly, you must ask that for Akhirah. Worldly things are also necessary to make your Akhirah prosperous. Saying “I am sincere. I don’t want anything worldly” – We don’t ask for worldly things in our hearts. But we need them in our hands. Our Holy Prophet ﷺ says a strong Muslim is better than a weak Muslim.

As we said, sincerity is not “Money makes me stronger. I can do everything with money”. Money is for the pleasure of Allāh ﷻ, for goodness and charity, to take care of yourself and your family, and to be useful for the Ummah. Who can should do that. But people who care only about money are not sincere. People who have love for money in their hearts and nothing else have no sincerity.

People especially of the present time are confused. They see someone and show respect to him thinking he is sincere. And then they look if he is sincere or not. We are living in the end of times. Everything is different. The truth behind everything you see is different. The main thing is not that. The main thing is something different. Therefore, mind yourself and don’t look at others. The whole world; we are not talking only about here; in the whole world, people are frustrated saying, “This happened and that happened”. No need for that. 

Protect yourself. This is the most important thing.

Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam has informed about these days. All Awliya and ‘Alims have also said this. Our Shaykh, Mawlana Shaykh Nazimق has also told about these things. He also warned about whom to be with and whom to stay away from. He made this warning. Who listens and obeys him keeps his sincerity. Otherwise, there are such events that are one way today and the opposite way tomorrow, that you get surprised.

Shukr to Allah ﷻ, our way is a beautiful way. We keep on the way that is shown to us. The end of this way is Safety with the permission of Allah ﷻ. There will be goodness and benefit for everyone without oppressing others, without doing badness to others with the permission of Allah ﷻ. 

We are waiting for Sahibu z-Zaman Mahdi ‘alayhi s-salam. No need to show importance to anyone except him. We must be on his way and show importance to him. Who don’t accept him know for themselves. We don’t interfere with them. If you found the jewel, protect it. Don’t give advice to others. You will only lose then. May Allah ﷻ protect us. 

May Allah ﷻ send Sahibu z-Zaman as soon as possible, for this world is bad in every respect. It is worse than ever before.

Nevertheless, it is the time of trade now, as we always say. People who worship will be in profit. And as there are difficulties to worship, the more you do, the more rewards Allah ﷻ will give.

May Allah ﷻ increase His ﷻ rewards for all of us insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ be pleased with all of you. May Allah ﷻ give guidance to people. May Allah ﷻ protect people. There are many people under oppression. Also, some people keep slandering our ancestors. May Allah ﷻ improve them. We are away from them, because the punishment of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will surely reach them unless they repent. They will get it from Allah ﷻ, not from us. Because Allah ﷻ is capable of everything. 

Those people who slander think something of themselves. They are slandering people for two pennies, especially the Ottoman Sultans. Each of them was an Awliya. We must say this here. They are beloved servants of Allah ﷻ. Who slanders and wrongs them will surely be punished. Shukr to Allah ﷻ, this (message) is spread everywhere. If they repent, the Door of Repentance is open. If they don’t repent, they know for themselves.

We are saying what Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla said, what our Holy Prophet ṣalláLlāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam said. Who slanders will be punished; not by us but by Allah ﷻ. We don’t have bombs and guns. We have Allah ﷻ . Allah ﷻ will give them either guidance or punishment. 

May Allah ﷻ protect us.

If people accept the advice, they will be saved. Who won’t accept the advice will regret it. May Allah ﷻ make us from those who accept the advice insha’Allah.

A‘ūdhu BiLlāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. BismiLlāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.

Our Holy Prophet ﷺ is saying that bringing a person to the right way is better than Dunya for you. Many people have Dunya in their minds, and they run after Dunya in this world. They have forgotten about Akhirah. Some don’t believe at all. Therefore, if you show the right way to someone, and he reaches guidance through you, Allah ﷻ has granted you a great profit. If that person joins the way of Allah ﷻ, Allah ﷻ gives you a great reward. Even if this world is a tiny place, oh what things you can do! You attain something better than this world. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla has promised you this and will give it to you, as you brought someone to guidance, as you showed someone the right way, as you put him to the right way.

Therefore, a person who does this must be happy. He should not think about other things. No matter if that person prays one time or five times, if he does everything incompletely or fully; however it is, he has joined the way and is going on it. He is going on the way of Allah ﷻ. So may Allah ﷻ give him peace. You get happy with it. And you make Shukr when he doesn’t go astray. Allah ﷻ has meant for us to be the means for that person. So you must say “Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla gave us this beauty” and make Shukr. Don’t think about anything else. Dunya, this and that; “I will benefit from it. He has joined this way. I will get some worldly benefit out of it.” Don’t bring this to your mind. It will ruin the whole thing. You still attain Thawab but your rank will go much lower than the rank of doing it purely for Allah ﷻ.

We must show the way to people with goodness and beauty as much as we can. We must help those who join the way to keep on it. When we mislead them out of the way, the things you attain, things given to you by Allah ﷻ – If they run away from the way because of you, you will miss this great benefit and great profit.

May they come through you. Be a door for them to enter through. Don’t look at another side. When you show this way and they join it, may they keep on it. May they keep on the way of Allah ﷻ. May the way of Allah ﷻ be your way. May Allah ﷻ help us, because people are in need.

Shaytan doesn’t like it when people come to the way. He wants to mislead as many people as possible. And he always strives to deprive people who do goodness from that goodness. Do not obey shaytan. Make Shukr to Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla for being given this favor. One person, two persons, five persons or ten persons; the more people come to the right way through you, the more rewards Allah ﷻ will give you. 

May Allah ﷻ give this to all of you. May the way of guidance be given through you insha’Allah.

A‘ūdhu BiLlāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. BismiLlāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

(Qur’ān 02:20).

 ‘’Inna Llāha Aa’la Kulli Shay’in Qadīr”

‘’Certainly, Allah has power over all things.’‘ The Power of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla has no boundaries or limits. Therefore, people’s mind is weak next to His ﷻ power. Some people ask, “Why is this like this? How does this happen? Why is there so much oppression in this world? Why is Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla not helping them?” Everything is by the will of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and His ﷻ power.

It is from Iman for Mu’mins and Muslims to believe in everything from Allah ﷻ. It is our duty to believe in the Greatness and Superiority of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. If we do so, we’ll be at rest. Otherwise, when you can’t do your own job right, Ḥāshā (far from it), are you going to interfere in the job of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla?

Many people are being ignorant without realizing. They are ignorant, but they think they are clever. So many millions and billions of people have come and gone. Muslims and Mu’mins have come and gone. Are you so clever now to dogmatize? People must know their limits. Knowing your limit is a great virtue, great goodness. People who don’t know their limits always find something which is not good.

There is a saying among people in this world that a person who doesn’t know his limits will be shown his limits. So certainly, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is capable of showing people their limits. There is no doubt in that. But Waswasa comes to people. As long as that Waswasa doesn’t come out, it is ok. But if it comes out and people say, “This is like this and like that” to others, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will show them their limits unless they repent. They will regret doing that.

The Greatness of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla has no limits and boundaries. Don’t open your mouth to say, “Why is this like this and like that?” regarding anything from Him ﷻ and keep your Waswasa to yourself. Everyone has Waswasa, Allah ﷻ will protect them. But when it comes out, people will be punished unless they repent. May Allah ﷻ protect us from Waswasa. May Allah ﷻ protect us from going beyond our limits.

A‘ūdhu BiLlāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. BismiLlāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla created both goodness and evil. He ﷻ created the opposite of everything. There is night and day, good and evil, goodness and badness, obedience and disobedience. People with mind are on the good side. They are together with the good. Not with dirtiness but with cleanliness and purity. They are with beauty, they stay away from ugliness.

Ugliness is disobedience and badness. And that is shaytan. Beauty; the most beautiful person that Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla created is our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Who is with him ﷺ attains all kinds of goodness. Who is against him ﷺ never has any goodness. Allah ﷻ gave mind and willpower to mankind. Therefore, be with the beautiful ones. Don’t be with ugly and bad ones. Stay away from them.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is inviting you to paradise. Shaytan is inviting you to poverty, sadness, badness and all kinds of useless things. Stay away from him. But the ego wants more badness than goodness, it wants more ugliness. Don’t obey your ego. You can train your ego. You can control your ego. Therefore, even if the rest always seems better for your ego, don’t obey your ego. Make your ego obey you.

Go on the good way, on the beautiful way of the beautiful person who is our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, and you will be saved. Otherwise, you won’t have goodness. May Allah ﷻ  protect us . There won’t be any goodness in the end. May Allah ﷻ not separate us from the right Way. May we see the beauty as beautiful and not ugly, because who obeys his ego sees the beauty as ugly and the ugly as beautiful. May Allah ﷻ protect us.

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam ordered his ﷺ Sahabah to travel in order to teach this beautiful religion to people. According to his ﷺ Sunnah, Shukr to Allah ﷻ, we are striving to carry out this duty insha’Allah. Today we are going for a long big trip [to the Far East] insha’Allah. Our intention is the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. For the pleasure and order of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, for the order of Mashayikh, we are going for this trip insha’Allah.

People come from there. However, those who come are few, because there is long distance and big expenses. There are also many poor ones. They get happy when they see us. When Allah ﷻ gives this thing into their hearts and they see Mashayikh or people who show the way of Allah ﷻ and show respect to them, Allah ﷻ gives them Barakah. He ﷻ gives them strength – the strength of Iman and physical strength.

This way is the beautiful way of light. Allah ﷻ will spread this light all over the world insha’Allah. But now we are living in the time of big Fitnah and oppression. Therefore, we are striving to keep on this way as much as we can. It is the way of Mawlana Shaykh Nazim ق. His way reached all over the world; in the East and West, in the North and South. There is no place where there is not his way. All of them know and recognize him, Shukr to Allah ﷻ. Therefore, we are going for this trip in order to fulfill this trust insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ accept it. May it be the means of guidance for us and for them. And may there be more love insha’Allah, because there are many people who mislead these people. Many people show the right way as wrong. Many people tell lies. Therefore, may Allah ﷻ help us.

We make intention for the trip according to the Sunnah of our Holy Prophet ﷺ and other Prophets. May Allah ﷻ bless it. Insha’Allah this time we make intention to go to the most beautiful place as well. We will go to Ka’bah to make Umrah and visit our Holy Prophet ﷺ. Insha’Allah with that Barakah, our trip will be more powerful spiritually. May Barakah from there reach people and may they get this Barakah insha’Allah. May it come to everyone insha’Allah.

Bismillahir-Rahmani-Raheem

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here(5:16):

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. “Kullu nafsin dhā’iqatu l-mawt, thumma ilaynā turja‘ūn” (29:57). Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘aẓīm. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says each person, all of mankind, will certainly go to the next life (ākhirah). No one will remain here. Therefore, to people with īmān, death is not a scary thing. Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim used to say that the awliyā’ say the death of people, the death of believers, is as easy as passing from one door to another. Dying, for them, is not scary.

But people without īmān, may Allāh جل جلاله protect us, their death and the release of their soul
are very bad. It is nothing but torture. But it is not a scary thing for believers. It is the most frightening thing for people. Some people say they have the fear of death. The fear of death. Why are you afraid? [Your life] is as long as Allāh جل جلاله has appointed for you. Being
scared will not benefit you. It is better if you’re not scared. If you are scared, it is not that
bad for you. It makes you do good deeds, in order not to be scared.

Repent for the bad things you’ve done. Ask forgiveness for your sins. Make things right with people, if you have harmed them. Put an end to their harm. Whatever you did to them, do as much as you can to make things right and for them to forgive you. Because the right of a servant is more difficult. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla forgives everything. He جل جلاله is forgiving. But He جل جلاله wants the right of a servant to be forgiven by that servant himself.

Therefore, giving other people their rights is harder for those who are gone. There is nowhere to run, there. You can be saved in this world by talking, with money or making things right. But there, you have to give up your pious deeds for them to forgive you. Therefore, this world is not eternal. Everyone will go from here. However long Allāh جل جلاله has
appointed for this life, it will be that much.

Therefore, believers must know this and be content with it. As we said, we should not be afraid. There is nothing to be scared of. As long as we are on the way of Allāh جل جلاله, no need to
be scared. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla will certainly treat us with His جل جلاله kind favours. Those who are on the way of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم will certainly be with him صلى الله عليه وسلم. The love and intercession of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم will be upon us. This is true.

They are frightening people with the fear of death now. “It will happen so and so.” Panic attacks and the fear of death have occurred. This is because of the ignorance of these people. Who is ignorant? Professors who graduated from universities are very ignorant. Most ignorant ones are from them, and from learned ones. Because the ignorant are not those who don’t know how to read and write, but those who don’t know Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Those who don’t know what they do and how, where they come and where they go, are ignorant. People on the way of Allāh جل جلاله are not ignorant. May Allāh جل جلاله protect us. May Allāh جل جلاله make our ending good, in shā’a Llāh.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here(4:47):

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Peygamber Efendimiz ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is saying: “Al-arwāḥu junūdun mujannadatun famā ta‘ārafa minhā i’talaf, wa-mā tanākara minhā ikhtalaf.” Ṣadaqa Rasūla Llāh fī-mā qāl aw kamā qāl, Our souls are like soldiers. When Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla created us in preeternity on the day of Qālū Balá, there were souls. We were not there. We were not there physically. In the beginning, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla created souls. Some of the souls there liked each other and got along very well. It is the same when they come to this world. In this world, you like some people and dislike other people. Some people love each other, some of them hate each other. This is their condition.

By the wisdom of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, when souls were created, a promise was taken from all of them regarding who would be a willing servant of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Everyone recognized Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla and said they accepted Him جل جلاله. But when they came to this world, they said they didn’t know Him جل جلاله. They broke their promise. There cannot be familiarity with people who don’t keep their promise. There cannot be admiration for them. Therefore, this beautiful word of our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says sometimes someone doesn’t get along with another person. He doesn’t know why he doesn’t get along well, and says it doesn’t come from his heart. This means they met in the spiritual world and didn’t like each other, or hated each other then. When they are physically in this world, such souls cannot get along well, either. They cannot stand each other. They become enemies. It is the same for all people in this world. Both Muslims and non-Muslims have such situations.
Therefore, may Allāh جل جلاله make us love good people, in shā’a Llāh, because it is a great favour.

It is the wisdom of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. We cannot interfere in that wisdom. Asking why and how is not from adab. It is neither from adab, nor from any protocol, to ask this question. Some people think they can ask everything. Some things pertain to Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla and things He جل جلاله knows Himself. They say His جل جلاله wisdom can’t be questioned. It is a beautiful saying. This is our condition. It is against adab to question one’s condition. And it weakens people’s īmān. May Allāh جل جلاله protect us, they may lose their īmān. In shā’a Llāh, be with good people. Good people are beloved servants of Allāh جل جلاله. Protect them and be together with them. Don’t be against them. There can be familiarity with people on the way of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, and the way of Allāh جل جلاله. And we ask that Allāh جل جلاله gives guidance to the rest, in shā’a Llāh.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here(5:10):

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Shukr to Allāh جل جلاله, we have good tidings. Islām is good tidings for Muslims.
We reached these beautiful days, of the birth of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. We
attained their virtue, shukr to Allāh جل جلاله . Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi
wa-sallam and Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla are giving good tidings to people. Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. “Wa-abshirū bi-l-jannati llatī kuntum tū‘adūn. Naḥnu awliyā’ukum fī l-ḥayāti d-dunyā wa-fī l-ākhirah” (41:30-31). May you have the good tidings, that Allāh جل جلاله promised you Paradise. You will be in Paradise.

This is the best news. No need to fear, for believers and people who are Muslim. Those who are together with Allāh جل جلاله don’t need to be afraid, with permission of Allāh جل جلاله . The thought of going to hell makes them feel like crying. “Will we go to hell or Paradise?” Don’t be afraid. Allāh جل جلاله gave you good tidings. The Word of Allāh جل جلاله is true. You have been promised Paradise. You are going to Paradise. These are great tidings for people in Islām, because when people make mistakes in this life and don’t correct them, it will be difficult. But, whether they correct them or not, their life continues. However, the life of ākhirah is not like this. If they slip, may Allāh جل جلاله protect us, they cannot ever be saved.

One of the great awliyā’, Ḥaḍrat al-Būṣīrī, says in Qaṣīdah al-Burdah: “Bushrá lanā ma‘shara l-Islām inna lanā mina l-‘ināyati ruknan ghayra munhadimi.” He wrote these beautiful words. And people always sing them. They used to sing this. Mawlānā Shaykh ‘Abdu Llāh ad-Dāghistānī always used to repeat this verse. We heard it from his holy mouth many times. This verse says, “May good tidings be upon Muslims. We have a base like a firm castle. What we are based on will never collapse. Don’t be afraid. May you have good tidings.”
This way is a beautiful way. Therefore, being steadfast on this way is beneficial, first to people themselves. And it is beneficial to their families, relatives and other people. To benefit from Islām is something everyone can do. But there are enemies, like the ego, desire and shayṭān, which prevent it.

There are four enemies. What do these enemies do? They don’t wish you goodness. They wish you badness. They want to destroy you. Don’t listen to them. They are… “Wa-khālifu n-nafsa” – oppose your ego and oppose the rest. Oppose shayṭān so that you have good tidings, and become a beloved servant of Allāh جل جلاله , so that you live in their Paradise forever, in shā’a Llāh. May Allāh جل جلاله let us attain these good tidings for the honor of holy Mawlid, in
shā’a Llāh.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here(8:21):

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Going to visit Awliyā’ brings benefit to everyone. Their barakah comes over those who visit. First of all it is good to visit the maqām of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. Certainly, the greatest virtue is in visiting him صلى الله عليه وسلم. But of course, it is not easy for people to go there and visit him صلى الله عليه وسلم every day. Visiting Ṣaḥābah, Mashāyikh, and Awliyā’ wherever they live brings virtue and reward, great thawāb as well.

Their doors are the door of Allāh جل جلاله. Whoever comes for the pleasure of
Allāh جل جلاله, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla gives him whatever he needs. Whatever their
portion, certainly it is given to those who enter those doors. They come for the pleasure of Allāh جل جلاله. Whatever intention they have, Allāh جل جلاله gives their reward. It is always so. Awliyā’ were sometimes not known to the people but their maqām is famous. They become more known after they pass away. Some Awliyā’ are known while alive as well. Therefore, for every person, how much it is needed for them, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla certainly gives reward
to them based on their level.

There was Somunju Baba who lived in Bursa. He lived in the time of Ḥaḍrat Yıldırım Bayezit. He used to make bread and sell to people. But people didn’t see he was awliyā’. They knew him as derwīsh and a blessed man. They used to visit him and buy bread from him. They asked for a blessing and his du‘ā’. The son-in-law of Ḥaḍrat Sulṭān Bayezit was Emir Sulṭān then – the son of Amīr Kulāl who came from Bukhara. He was the Sulṭān’s son-in-law.

The Sulṭān built Ulu Camii (The Great Mosque) in Bursa. He decided to have the most knowledgeble man read the khuṭbah. So he opened it on Friday and asked that person to read khuṭbah. He told his son-in-law, Sayyid Amīr Sulṭān, “You can do this.” He said, “No. There is a greater, a superior person, there is a shaykh here. He will do it.” The Sulṭān did not object, of course. Obedient to the order, Somunju Baba went up to give the khuṭbah. He explained al-Fātiḥah Sharīf in his khuṭbah. And he explained it in seven different ways.

Firstly, he explained it in the way that the simplest people could understand. And then he explained it to people who have just started learning. And then in the way that hodjas could understand, and then in the way scholars could understand, and then in the way the Sulṭān could understand, and then in the way mashāyikh could understand. The seventh was the explanation no one could understand. It means whoever comes to this door, everyone takes his share… No one goes back empty-handed. Everyone benefits from that favour.

The explanation of it in the way people can understand is that when you make a visit to any awliyā’, you will certainly profit. It will be given based on your level. Everyone will be happy. No one will be upset and say, “I took a very little.” Because it is the gift of Allāh جل جلاله. They don’t realize what they got. But it is certainly written as the portion of people. And then this Somunju Baba went out of the mosque after shaking hands with everyone.. He greeted everyone and shook hands. The mosque had four doors. Everyone exited through one of those four doors. When they went out, everyone said, “I shook hands with him.” Everyone who exiting through the doors said that. The miracle is that the same person was seen at all four doors.

The miracles of awliyā’ are real. After showing that miracle and after becoming recognized, this holy being left Bursa and moved to Aksaray. People who come to holy ones leave with big gifts. They return with big favours. Therefore, visiting these holy ones is disliked by shayṭān and those together with shayṭān because they know and don’t wish any goodness to people and believers out of envy and jealousy. May Allāh جل جلاله protect us. May Allāh جل جلاله not separate us from these doors. May their help and barakah be upon us, in shā’a Llāh.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here(5:17):

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.

“Yā-ayyuhā l-insānu mā gharraka bi-rabbika l-karīm. Alladhī khalaqaka fa-sawwāka fa-‘adalakk” (82:6-7).
Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘aẓīm. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying, “O mankind, how are you cheated? How are they cheating you that you don’t recognize Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla?” Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla created you. And He جل جلاله created you in the best shape. He جل جلاله gave you the best things. He جل جلاله made you with both a high rank and a position from which you can do everything. And He جل جلاله made everything under your command. But you are cheated by others. You
have ruined yourself.
This is good and momentous advice for all people. People think they can earn with their minds, that they will have fun and entertain themselves and be saved without doing anything. They have no knowledge of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, or going to His جل جلاله presence. This time we are living in is the worst time in the history of mankind, because people of olden times knew there
was a creator.
But nowadays they mostly deny Him جل جلاله. They say, “Do whatever you want.
Enjoy yourselves.” But they cannot. It doesn’t work. Not everyone can
enjoy himself. And for those who can, this enjoyment doesn’t bring them
anything, after some time. They ask for something else. They ask for more.
They search. People are searching. What they search for is in front of their
eyes. But they don’t see. Because of the badness they do, they don’t see the
huge thing in front of them. They see everything aside from it.

This is mankind’s kufr, rejection of Allāh جل جلاله. Kufr is not good. Īmān, to
believe in Allāh جل جلاله, is good. Allāh جل جلاله created us. He جل جلاله created us in the best
shape. He جل جلاله granted us the best things. He جل جلاله gave us arms and legs, eyes
and mind. He جل جلاله told us and showed us everything mankind should be, and
is, able to do, from the beginning until the end of their lives. There is no
need for other things. If mankind goes on this way, they will not need
anything. And their end will be good. Most importantly, they will attain the
hereafter. They will attain the hereafter — ākhirah. Otherwise, they run
around this world in vain. In the end, they won’t have accomplished
anything. They will lose everything.
May Allāh جل جلاله protect us. May Allāh جل جلاله put His جل جلاله love in our hearts, for the
honour of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم , in shā’a Llāh. The greatest profit for
Muslims is the love of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم . And to show respect to him صلى الله عليه وسلم is our most accepted worship in the presence of Allāh جل جلاله. May Allāh جل جلاله not
let people be misled. There are many confused people around Muslims. There are many people among them who say the good is bad and the bad is good. May Allāh جل جلاله protect us.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here(5:46):

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. “Qul in kuntum tuḥibbūna Llāha fa-ttabi‘ūnī yuḥbibkumu Llāhu wa-yaghfir lakum dhunūbakum” (3:31). Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘aẓīm. Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says, “If you love Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, follow my way and Allāh جل جلاله will love you.” The love of Allāh جل جلاله is our wish. Our goal is the love of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. It is also the reason why we have gathered here.

Mā shā’a Llāh, people have come from all over the world. May Allāh جل جلاله be
pleased. For the pleasure of Allāh جل جلاله , for the love of Allāh جل جلاله , out of affection
for Allāh جل جلاله , we are walking on the way of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, for this way
is the greatest favour to us. It is the greatest virtue Allāh جل جلاله has given to us. We must make shukr to Allāh جل جلاله, as many people are not aware of it. Even if they know, they don’t care if it is today or any other day. Other days are sometimes more important for people. But the main, important thing is to follow the way of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. To remember him صلى الله عليه وسلم at every chance and occasion, to ask for help from him صلى الله عليه وسلم, to ask for strength from him صلى الله عليه وسلم are necessary things for believers. Other things are not important.

When they are necessary, He جل جلاله gives them. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla gives to
people whom He جل جلاله loves. As we said, let Allāh جل جلاله love you. It is not important if others love you or not. Some people say, this man said this, that man came or didn’t come, and did or didn’t do something. No need for that. People should mind themselves. They must look at themselves so that they realize what kind of favours they have. If they look at others, they will never be happy. And they won’t attain the pleasure of Allāh جل جلاله, because when you don’t look at what was given by Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, and look at this world instead, you will be inclined to this world. And if you turn away from Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla will turn away from you. It will be useless.
Therefore, may Allāh جل جلاله be pleased with you, as you came for the pleasure of
Allāh جل جلاله from so far away. We have all gathered here together. You also
made ziyārah of Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim. His barakah comes from the barakah of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and from the barakah of Allāh ‘Azza wa- Jalla. Therefore, those who came here will surely not leave empty-handed. Considering those who say this and that – that this is accepted and that is not accepted – as we said, don’t listen to what they say. Don’t deal with them.

Thanks to Allāh جل جلاله , our way is the beautiful way, the way of light, the way of
our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم , the way of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, the way of Paradise
and happiness, with permission of Allāh جل جلاله. May Allāh جل جلاله make it blessed for
everyone. May Allāh جل جلاله be pleased, because our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says, when someone goes to visit his Muslim brother for the pleasure of Allāh جل جلاله, a reward is written, and a sin forgiven, for every step that Muslim takes. And he is raised up one rank. Shukr to Allāh جل جلاله, you made more than one step; there are many people who came from as far as millions of steps away. Therefore, they will take great profit back with them, with permission of Allāh جل جلاله. May Allāh جل جلاله make it last. May He جل جلاله show this way to those who don’t know it, in shā’a Llāh. May they know it too, and benefit from it. This is the benefit.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here(6:18):

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. “Wa-la-qad ṣarrafnā fī hādhā l-qur’āni li-n-nāsi min kulli mathalin wa-kāna l-insānu akthara shay’in jadala” (18:54). Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘aẓīm. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying that He جل جلاله explained everything in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n. “Every problem, every goodness; We جل جلاله described them in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n and sent it to humanity and to everything else. There is everything in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n. All of them
accepted it. Jamā‘ah, people, birds, atoms, earth, mountains and stones
accepted it except for mankind. Mankind objected to it the most.” Mankind objects to everything from Allāh جل جلاله. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says they are the ones who don’t accept the
most. We see it all the time. It has been the same since the beginning. Mankind has been this way since Ādam ‘alayhi s-salām. If all of them accepted, there would be no problem at all. But Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla sent people to this world as a test for them – to accept the truth. People who accept this truth become beloved servants of Allāh جل جلاله. Who don’t love Ḥaqq
are disliked servants of Allāh جل جلاله. Does Allāh جل جلاله not love? “I جل جلاله don’t love,”
says Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n. We can’t interfere in the business of Allāh جل جلاله. Allāh جل جلاله loves whom He جل جلاله loves and dislikes whom
He جل جلاله dislikes.
When the first order of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla came to our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, “Wa-andhir ‘ashīrataka l-aqrabīn” (26:214). “Notify your tribe about this order. Before that, notify your relatives.” Such an order came to him صلى الله عليه وسلم. Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam gathered all of them and asked them what they knew about him صلى الله عليه وسلم.

Certainly, our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم was a perfect person. He صلى الله عليه وسلم was perfect
before the prophecy and he صلى الله عليه وسلم was perfect afterwards. There was no change.
All of them replied, “We know you صلى الله عليه وسلم very well. You صلى الله عليه وسلم are the person we love very much.” He صلى الله عليه وسلم started his صلى الله عليه وسلم speech, “Will you believe if I صلى الله عليه وسلم tell you something?” They said they would. “What will you صلى الله عليه وسلم tell us?” So our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam started telling beautiful words from Allāh جل جلاله and shared the orders. All of their hearts were softened. All of them
were ready to believe until his صلى الله عليه وسلم uncle, a person called Abū Lahab, stood up
and started shouting and swearing, saying bad words at our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم.
This is what Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says. Most of mankind don’t accept. When he did this, the rest ran away from the gathering. They remained in unbelief and only later many of them became Muslim. For example, a person like Abū Lahab, is cursed in Qur’ān. There are sūrahs against him, both him and his wife. Because he was oppressing our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم since the first day and remained his صلى الله عليه وسلم enemy until he died.
The biggest enemy of our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam was his صلى الله عليه وسلم uncle. But, he was harmful to himself. He is in hell forever. And that
curse is still going on. But our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is the one on the highest
station in the universe forever. Those who follow him صلى الله عليه وسلم have high stations
too. They live with honour. They become beloved servants of Allāh جل جلاله.
Therefore, do not question the orders of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. “Why is this
so? It is written so and so in Qur’ān.” Some people dare make judgments
with their little minds. Therefore, we must pay attention to this. We are in
the holy month of our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.
We are in the month of his صلى الله عليه وسلم birth. Don’t fail to respect him صلى الله عليه وسلم. Don’t let anything come to your heart. Shayṭān can send waswasah (whisperings) to your heart. But beware of speaking it out loud. Don’t say, “Why is this so? Why is that so?” Otherwise, all your life will be spoilt and you will be in loss forever. May Allāh جل جلاله protect us.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here(6:15):

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

If they ask what is happiness in this world, it is to be in peace. A person at peace has happiness. Wherever he is, he is happy. And this is granted only to those who are together with pious ones on the way of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم and the Awliyā’. This peace and happiness
we are talking about are only present for those who are on the way of Allāh جل جلاله.

Those who have love for Allāh جل جلاله and love for our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam
in their hearts and for those who are ṣaḥābah, Ahlu l-Bayt, mashāyikh; all of them are on this
way. Whoever is on this way has a peaceful life and a prosperous ākhirah. Their ākhirah
cannot be prosperous otherwise. People who say, “I will do it myself. I will find a way by
myself,” can never find a way. When there is a guide, people don’t get lost. What we mean
by a guide is that there is a murshid or a guide showing the way in front of them, that way
leads to safety. Otherwise, people who don’t look for such way will be lost. Going here and
there, they will lose their way. They will wander around but won’t reach anywhere. If you
say you can find the way…

In the time of Mūsá ‘alayhi s-salām when he ran away from Egypt, he came to the desert of Sinai. They divided the sea and passed to another side. Pharaoh and his soldiers were destroyed. This is one of the biggest miracles that people can see. They have seen many miracles there, and this one was the greatest miracle in the world. As soon as they passed through the sea, the people rebelled immediately. But the wrath of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla came upon them. An order came for them to kill themselves. Even after everything was done, they did not obey. They said, “We will find a way.” A great Prophet, ūlū l-‘Azm, Sayyidunā Mūsá ‘alayhi s-salām was guiding them in what to do. Orders were coming directly from Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla: “Come here and you will reach safety. You will be in comfort and find peace.” But they said, “No. We don’t want it. Go away.” So when the wrath of Allāh جل جلاله came upon them, He جل جلاله said “Go away and be lost in this desert.” “How will we get
lost? The desert is here, the path is here. We can go through and out.” They went out in the morning but were in same place in the evening. Morning out, evening same place. A month, a year, forty years they remained there until everyone died. They couldn’t find a way out.

This is because when someone doesn’t follow a perfect person but follows his ego, he gets lost. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is showing us this as an example so that we certainly go on the right way with the right people. If you are with bad people, you will either not reach your destination, or get lost. Shukr to Allāh جل جلاله, Allāh جل جلاله put us on the way of Mawlānā Shaykh
Nāẓim. His way is the way of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. The way goes on. We will keep on this way, in shā’a Llāh. We will reach safety, in shā’a Llāh. It is the way shown by Allāh جل جلاله. No one can walk on this way as he likes. May Allāh جل جلاله not let us go astray from this way, in shā’a Llāh.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here(8:40):

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Allāh ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n is praising our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. All beautiful things belong to him .صلى الله عليه وسلم. Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is a perfect person. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla sent him صلى الله عليه وسلم as a mercy to us. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla sent him صلى الله عليه وسلم as a mercy to all the worlds. It is great luck to be from his صلى الله عليه وسلم ummah, nation. Compared to other nations, the obligations and worshipping given to our ummah are much easier. That is from the mercy of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. For the honour of his صلى الله عليه وسلم countenance, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla treats us with beneficence. The previous nations had more prayers. Our fasting is one month; theirs was six months. And they broke their fast once a day and kept on fasting afterwards. We are saying this as an example. Even though things were more difficult for the previous nations, to be from the nation of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم has bountiful virtues.

The most beloved servant of Allāh جل جلاله is our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. It is a great honour to be from his صلى الله عليه وسلم ummah. In many places in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n it is said about our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, “We جل جلاله sent you صلى الله عليه وسلم as a mercy to the worlds. And you صلى الله عليه وسلم were created with the best manners and characteristics, with the most beautiful adab. That is given to you.” Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is telling people with His جل جلاله word of truth in Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n. Our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم says, “It is my duty. I صلى الله عليه وسلم was sent to complete all good characteristics.” Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says so.

By the wisdom of Allāh جل جلاله, for people to believe in, and accept him صلى الله عليه وسلم, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla created our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam in a place far from most people, where there were no schools or universities. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla sent him صلى الله عليه وسلم there as a prophet to all humanity. Very few people studied there. There was nothing like a school. They would learn [to read and write] from each other, on their own. But our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam was not in a position to do that.

Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, as you know, by the wisdom of Allāh جل جلاله, was orphaned as a child, losing his صلى الله عليه وسلم mother, father, and grandfather. But Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is the one who put that knowledge and all the knowledge in the world in his
صلى الله عليه وسلم breast. If people studied for a thousand years, they would not be able to attain so much knowledge. Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is a miracle shown by Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla – a true prophet and a mercy – in order for people to easily believe. What is this miracle? It is not karāmah. Karāmah, miraculous deeds, are for awliyā’. Miracles are for prophets. For those who reject the position of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, there is no forgiveness. Those who don’t believe our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم after seeing so many of his صلى الله عليه وسلم miracles are called kāfirs because of this. Kāfir means people who don’t admire anything and don’t believe in anything. People who don’t believe in themselves are characterized as kāfirs as well. In any case, mu’mins, believers, follow the beautiful way of our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. They don’t need any other way.
Those who join this way, who are on the right way and follow a murshid, will be directly alongside our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم in Paradise, with permission of Allāh جل جلاله. May Allāh جل جلاله make us steadfast on this way.

For the honour of these beautiful days, for the honour of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم who was born in this month, may Allāh جل جلاله make us steadfast. May we love him صلى الله عليه وسلم and be from those loved by him صلى الله عليه وسلم, in shā’a Llāh. How does he صلى الله عليه وسلم love us? When you make ṣalawāt, he صلى الله عليه وسلم gives salām to you too. And he صلى الله عليه وسلم loves you. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla gave us this chance. As we said in the beginning, we are very lucky people. No need to complain and say, “I have pain here and there, this and that. My wife is so. My husband is so.” Keep this in mind.

Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla made us from Ummati Muḥammad صلى الله عليه وسلم. The rest are unnecessary things. These things won’t go to ākhirah, but will remain in this world. They will be forgotten in five minutes here, or after a day. They will be gone after a month. This one and that one will go. As we said, what will stay is the love and intercession of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. That is what is important. The rest is not important at all. You may die of hunger or disease, and it won’t be important; as long as you are on this way, you are in profit, with permission of Allāh جل جلاله.

May Allāh جل جلاله protect us. We don’t want tests. May Allāh جل جلاله give us from His جل جلاله grace and from the mercy of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. Don’t ask for patience. Ask for beneficence, iḥsān. Being patient is difficult. Therefore, don’t ask for anything to be patient for. May Allāh جل جلاله not deprive us of the mercy of our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, in shā’a Llāh. May He جل جلاله not deprive us of his صلى الله عليه وسلم intercession, in shā’a Llāh.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Bismillahir-Rahmani-Raheem

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here(7.44):

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Shukr to Allāh جل جلاله, we meet once again. This summer was heavy, and the month of Ṣafar, the holy month of Ṣafar was heavy. Some things happened everywhere – earthquakes and floods, by the wisdom of Allāh جل جلاله. Many people lost their homes, homelands and lives in this month of Ṣafar. These are the signs of the end of times. When qiyāmah is near, when Mahdī ‘alayhi s-salām is near, our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam said these things will happen to his صلى الله عليه وسلم ummah. For those who believe our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, all of these will be beneficial. Whatever happens, it is for their benefit and in their interest. If they die, they become shahīd (martyr)… If they remain, they will still be written thawāb (reward) for their patience.

This is the honour of being from the ummah of our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. The greatest honour for us is to be from the ummah of our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam and to walk on his صلى الله عليه وسلم way. This is the greatest and most precious thing in the world. Money, jewelry and this kind of thing have worth here. You may value them. If you use them on the way of Ḥaqq (Truth), to help people, they will have worth too. If you keep them and don’t give to anyone, they are useful neither to you, nor to others. We have entered the holy month of our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. This month will come with its barakah (blessing), in shā’a Llāh. There will be help for Islām, in shā’a Llāh. To honour it is the greatest goodness we can do for ourselves because the more you honour and make ṣalawāt to our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, the more he صلى الله عليه وسلم answers you; our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam gives salām to you too. What can you find better than this? You cannot find. But people always are being tested A current test is the things taught all over the world that give instruction and education against Allāh .جل جلاله

Certainly this education and teaching does not accept anything. Therefore, it is a test for people and for Muslims. We must know this and understand its harm. We must ask for the help of our Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. In this holy month. We must ask for intercession, support, and help from him صلى الله عليه وسلم. Because there is nothing we can lean on. As it is the end of times, shayṭān has got his chance with all his power. They are attacking Islām from all sides. They are attacking people with īmān (faith). They set their eyes on their īmān. If there are a couple of people left with īmān, they want to finish their īmān too. But with the permission of Allāh جل جلاله , Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm, “Wa-Llāhu mutimmu nūrihī wa-law kariha l-kāfirūn” (61:8). Allāh جل جلاله will complete His جل جلاله light. Even though unbelievers don’t want and don’t like it, the light of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla will be complete. That light of Allāh جل جلاله is the light of our Holy Prophet .صلى الله عليه وسلم

The whole world from West to East will follow Islām, with permission of Allāh جل جلاله. May this be the barakah of this month of Mawlid, in shā’a Llāh. People should not lose hope wondering what will happen. It is not in my or your hands. It is in the hands of Allāh جل جلاله. It is the promise, the holy word of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. His جل جلاله word is true. We certainly wait for it.

And to wait for it is one of the conditions of īmān for Muslims. The improvement of this world and coming to Islām is the word of Allāh جل جلاله, in shā’a Llāh it is near because nothing is getting better but instead it is getting much worse. People want to do something good but the opposite happens… They want to do this but something else happens. They’ve tried everything but they are not pleased. They cannot be happy as they get no benefit. What will bring pleasure and correct everything is the rule of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, order of Islām, in shā’a Llāh. In shā’a Llāh, it is near. People should not lose hope. As you wait for it, you will get reward and thawāb with permission of Allāh جل جلاله.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm,
وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَاكَ إِلَّا رَحْمَةً لِّلْعَالَمِينَ
(Qur’ān 21:107). ‘Wa-mā arsalnāka illā raḥmatan li-l-‘ālamīn, ‘And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds.’ Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is describing the attribute of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan and says, “We sent him as mercy to universes.” Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is honoring our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan.

As there is honoring of our Holy Prophet ﷺ from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla everywhere, it is Fard for us to honor him as well. It is Fard to love him ﷺ. Those who don’t love him ﷺ don’t love Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Who doesn’t love him ﷺ? Shaytans don’t love him ﷺ and those who are with shaytan don’t love him ﷺ. We should always praise our Holy Prophet ﷺ and even more in this month. It is the month of Mawlid Sharif. It is the month when he ﷺ honored this world with his ﷺ presence.

There are beautiful Mawlids written by different nations according to them. There are ones written by Arabs, Turks; everyone has their own. But this beautiful Mawlid written in the Ottoman Empire, Mawlid of Süleyman Çelebi Efendi is more spiritual and very high. Everyone wants to listen to it. And everyone’s love increases with it. It becomes better. It is found in different languages too. But as the one who wrote it was honored by the Himmah (support) of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, it has a more beautiful influence.

There are idiot people, not people but crooked scholars nowadays or people who listen to them. They say Mawlid is Bid’ah or whatever. Mawlid can never be Bid’ah because people gather and recite Mawlid for the the pleasure of Allah ﷻ and for the love of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. Even if you read it alone, you still attain that pleasure. You both make Salawat and honor him ﷺ. Therefore, it is something that shaytans and those together with shaytan dislike the most.

There are many people who say all kinds of bad words in order to confuse people. But those who listen to them don’t gain, they lose. Because the love of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is what will save us. Our deeds cannot save us. Our deeds don’t resemble anything and are useless. What is useful is the love of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.

Therefore, telling about the beautiful life of our Holy Prophet ﷺ since his ﷺ birth and before his ﷺ birth, about his ﷺ light bring light and Thawab. It increases our ranks insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ bless us. May our love to our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam increase insha’Allah. 

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is saying, “There is a group from my Ummah who will act upon the truth until Qiyamah”. We look now, there are many people who say they are Muslim. There are many non-Muslims as well. But there is only one group who is based on truth, not all of them.

People’s minds have been messed up. Those who show the good as bad and the bad as good are outside of Islam. But Muslims are the same. They don’t accept the truth. They show it as not true and cheat people. They drag people behind them. And they are destroying them for no purpose in this world and losing the ranks and levels they could reach in Akhirah.

People think they are doing something good but they do useless things. They don’t accept the favors given to them. Instead, they say, “I will get it myself”. There are many people who strive to get totally useless things that are not worth having instead of beautiful things given to them. And most importantly, these are the people who don’t want the way and love of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. They say they are Muslim. But they also say he ﷺ is only a person just like us who died and is gone. Ḥāshā! (far from it)! There are many people who say so and cheat people. They are stupid people. And people who go after them are stupid too.

A Clever person is the person who knows the value, glory and honor of our Holy Prophet ﷺ and how much he ﷺ asks for forgiveness and Shafa’ah (intercession) for his ﷺ Ummah from Allah ﷻ. We ask for the Shafa’ah of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. Without his ﷺ Shafa’ah, our actions are just useless. Muslims will go to hell for a long time and then go to paradise. As long as they say, “La ilaha illa Allah Muhammadun Rasulu Llah”, they will enter it. But people will have lived their lives in vain. And in Akhirah, they will stay in hell for years and be punished for the things they have done.

Shukr to Allah ﷻ, we have entered the month of the birth of our Holy Prophet ﷺ – Mawlid Sharif. Honoring him ﷺ and cultivating love to him ﷺ means cultivating love to Allah ﷻ. It is Fard to love him ﷺ. To respect him ﷺ and to honor him ﷺ is Fard. Those who say it is Shirk are idiots. They are stupid and without Iman. They can be Muslim but cannot be Mu’min (believers). They cannot have Iman.

There is Islam and there is Iman. True Iman brings benefit to people. People with Iman, Mu’mins are people with a lot of love to our Holy Prophet ﷺ, people with respect and honor to him ﷺ. Insha’Allah may this love increase. For the honor and Barakah of this month, may it be abundant insha’Allah.

“Whoever makes Salat and Salam to me, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla makes tenfold Salat and Salam and even more to him.” Therefore, may we make more Salat and Salam in this month insha’Allah. Make as much as you can. Don’t say it is too much or too little. Make sure to make Salat and Salam upon our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. 

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

We say Shukr to Allah ﷻ for the blessing of Iman. We say Shukr for being on this way, on the way of Allah ﷻ and on the way of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. Shukr to Allah ﷻ, this journey to our brothers [in Italy] was very nice Masha’Allah. The seeds planted by Mawlana Shaykh Nazim have bloomed and grown up. They are standing strong, Shukr to Allah ﷻ. They are increasing and they have a lot of love Masha’Allah.

Many of them are new Muslims who are not born into Muslim families but who became Muslim later. Allah ﷻ has given them guidance. And that is a very big blessing. The biggest blessing is that while in Kufr He ﷻ put love in their hearts. They were searching, and through some means they became honored with Islam. And they are very happy with their condition. Their Dua is for Islam to spread and for Islam to cover the whole world. Insha’Allah that will happen.

The promise of Allah ﷻ is true. Allah ﷻ will complete His ﷻ light. The whole world will join Islam insha’Allah. And then the Day of Judgment which is a true promise will come. But the Day of Judgment will not come until whole world joins Islam with the permission of Allah ﷻ. And then people will see the truth. They will realize the truth.

Nowadays, shaytan and people who are worse than shaytan are busy thinking how to take people out of the way. There is nothing else. There is no goodness. But Allah ﷻ loves goodness and those who do goodness. May Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla make us all steadfast on this way insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ be pleased with our brothers there. They have treated us very well and shown us around. We met good people everywhere. Insha’Allah may the rest be honored with Islam too. We ask that Allah ﷻ gives guidance to the people we have met in the places we went to. And may Allah ﷻ always give us the strength of Iman insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Bismillahir-Rahmani-Raheem

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

BismiLlahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim:

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَكُونُوا مَعَ الصَّادِقِينَ

(Qur’ān 09:119). ‘Yā ‘Ayyuhā l-Ladhīna ‘Āmanū t-Taqū l-Llaha Wa Kūnū Ma’a s-Sādiqīn’, ‘O you who have believed, fear Allah and be with the truthful.’ Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying that we must be with good people to learn good things for ourselves, for our life. You must be with somebody to teach you.

Of course, those who understand, those whom Allah ﷻ gave good understanding, know they must look for knowledge more and more. Because many of them, these big Awliyau’Llah, big ‘Ulama, scholars were in their village – in every village, the Imam was a teacher. Teaching children to write and read and giving them what they are in need of for their lives. To ask for knowledge, for ‘Ilim is obligatory for every Muslim, everyone: male and female. For this, in every Muslim ruler’s time, every Islamic state’s time, each village or small place had a mosque, masjid and had an Imam. And this Imam looks after these people, teaching them and looks after boys for a certain time. The whole country, the whole place where people were living was like this, and the Imam was teaching all of them. When they finish – every time new students come and he teaches them until they finish and know how to read and read Qur’an, to write and to know what is Haram and what is Halal. It stays like this for maybe 5 or 6 years, like elementary school. When it finishes, everybody goes and continues his life. Of course in old times, people didn’t have secondary or high school or university; they didn’t have this. Everybody must learn something [profession] to live. But the first thing they teach them is to read and write, and to know what is Haram, what is Halal; about life. Because in that time, they were also marrying early maybe at 15 or 16 years. They become like men and women. And because life was for them – many of them pass away at 50 or 60 years. For this, they continued their lives like this.

In these schools, sometimes brilliant students appear. When this student comes, the Imam says to his father and family, “This boy is more knowledgeable than me. We won’t waste him here. Send him to a more knowledgeable school or place to learn more.” The student also goes to another place, and after that he becomes very clever. The other Imam says, “He is above [superior to] me. He must go to a higher place.” So there, he gets the highest knowledge and says, “Okay this is finished but I still feel something not complete.” After asking, many of them know they must follow a Shaykh, Murshid. Every one from Awliyau’Llah or who were like this must have a Murshid. Even the highest one in knowledge and who’s well known in this world, in east and west, also has a Murshid.

This was Sayyidina Jalāluddīn Rūmī, Mawlana Jalāluddīn Rūmī. He was an ocean of knowledge and everybody was listening to his Sohbahs and his speeches everywhere. Even Sultans were saying, “O Shaykh! I want to be a Murid for you. I don’t want this Sultanate. I even give you this Sultanate. Come be Sultan, I will be your follower.” Of course, he didn’t accept. He continued like this but he was feeling something not complete in him, until Shams Tabrīzī came and met him.

Shams Tabrīzī was also not knowing but Allah ﷻ gave him knowledge and wisdom, and he was full of wisdom. But he was not looking after Dunya and not caring about what people say about him. He used to wear something black. He was not familiar with people. When an order came to him, he was waiting. He also knew, “I have this huge knowledge but this is not for common people. I know this. I will only give this knowledge for someone; but I don’t know whom he is.” He was waiting until a big Shaykh, Awliya from Konya sent him a letter saying, “Come! What you’re waiting for is here. You must come and meet him.”

When Shams arrived to Konya and met Mawlana Jalāluddīn Rūmī, Mawlana was on his horse, and so Shams held his horse. Mawlana was looking at him, and he was so familiar to him. “Who is this? He is very familiar to me.” Mawlana was thinking about where he has seen him. Then he remembered: he has seen him many times in dream. He quickly came down from his horse and they hugged each other. Then, they left the people. They were for many days, more than 40 days in Khalwa (seclusion). And nobody knew what they were speaking and about what. They were sometimes speaking and sometimes silent in this room of Khalwa. Nobody knew what they were speaking about. After that when they went out, of course people weren’t happy. Everybody weren’t happy, “What is this very strange one, very aggressive one and not a good behaved one! He took our Shaykh, our Master! He kidnapped him! He wasn’t coming anymore to give Sohbah, not coming for anything, just staying there!” People were very angry for this. He didn’t care about this. Even after that, he was also standing at the door of Mawlana not letting anybody go inside. He kicked some of them, he shouted at some of them, he beat some of them. But Mawlana was in that time in the room also, with instructions from Shams not to go meet people.

Shams Tabrīzī knows that he must give this thing quickly to Mawlana Jalāluddīn Rūmī because he knows that to meet this great one is not without price. And the price for this prize of being with Mawlana: he knows he must give his head. And this is what happened later. But Mawlana after him opened more knowledge, real knowledge. Until now, millions of people are following him and reading his wisdoms everywhere.

This was the teaching of old people, the Islamic teaching to people: to respect and accept the truth. And to look for – Allah ﷻ gave each one someone to be his guidance for this knowledge. When they’re in the right way, insha’Allah lucky will be the one who finds this. Because this is special, like Shams who gave all this knowledge to one man. But this one man took it and spread it to millions and even billions since that time. The important thing is to know your duty and your intention. It is very important. Shams did this for the sake of Allah ﷻ and he gave his head for this mission. May Allah ﷻ praise them. May Allah ﷻ give us good guidance insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Bismillahir-Rahmani-Raheem

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

AlhamduliLlah we meet many. It’s also the first time that we are together. We are thanking Allah ﷻ for this. Our gathering is AlhamduLillah for the sake of Allah ﷻ, for the love of Prophet ﷺ. This is the most important thing in our life.

Today AlhamduliLlah we visited some – we’ve been in Italy since a few days – today we visited this city [Venice] which was built on water and they said it’s the (most) richest city in the world. People are coming there, those who don’t have any idea what they were created for, just to satisfy their ego. Each one making something funny and making people take photos of him or her. You see such people doing nonsense things thinking they will be happy by this. We visited Venice, we visited Milano, we visited here, there – they are not happy, they are proud. They think they’ll be happy when they say this to other people. This visit is not giving any benefit for themselves: not only for their spirituality, it’s not giving any benefit for everything.

Our life is a gift from our Creator Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. He ﷻ created us as human beings. And He ﷻ showed us and gave us thinking to know everything. We are not like animals: not knowing anything. We know everything. For this, Allah ﷻ is not happy with people when – when you give some precious thing to somebody and he doesn’t appreciate it, you become angry, “I gave him such a precious thing and he didn’t take care of it.” So they lose it. How must our life be precious? How can we keep it as a good gift without losing it? How can we do this? Your life becomes precious and there becomes meaning for your life with the love of Allah ﷻ, love of Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.

This life is only a very short thing. It is as you open and close your eyes. It is just like this in the time of – even in your time it’s like this. So this time must be well kept and well done with. And it’s not difficult for human beings: they must just accept their Lord, they must accept the Creator and accept what He ﷻ orders. He ﷻ created us – here in Italy there are many factories for machinery, and for each machine they give instructions on how to use it. Allah ﷻ created us and gave us instructions on how we must do to be a good machine. Not like what they said yesterday: Leonardo Da Vinci was trying to fly but he was afraid so he put some people to fly and everyone came falling down on their heads and passed away, they were finished. [Leonardo would tell them,] “Sorry. Come! Another one!”

But Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla knows. He ﷻ knows everything. We cannot compare His ﷻ Knowledge with our knowledge. We cannot say ‘compare’; this is a bad word. Sorry, AstaghfiruLlah that we said this. The whole universe’s knowledge is not one drop but one atom from knowledge. If you say this it means He ﷻ has a limit. But He ﷻ doesn’t have a limit. And with His ﷻ Mercy He ﷻ gave you this value and told you to do what’s good for you and you are refusing and saying, “No, I will do this. It will be better for me.” For this, the whole world is in a big mess, big unhappiness, big crisis. Everything is bad in this world because this thinking of people is controlling the whole world. The lucky one is the one who finds the way to be a good servant for Allah ﷻ, a lover of Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. They are lucky people.

Because these people are really affecting other people and the other people think they are something. For this, we are asking protection from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla for every one of us, for children especially. Because now they’re aiming for children, they are attacking them wildly. And if they’re saying anything, they say, “You are not good parents.” So they can even take them from them. Insha’Allah we must teach the love of Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam for our children, for our relatives, for anyone from Muslims. And non-Muslims also must know because they are teaching them very bad thing about Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Because he ﷺ is the most merciful for his ﷺ nation, for his ﷺ Ummah. In every occasion, he ﷺ was asking for forgiveness for his ﷺ Ummah from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla.

AlhamduliLlah tomorrow is the last day of Safar. Saturday is the first day of Rabih Al-Awwal, the month of the birth of our Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. This month, we must make more Salawat on Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, ask him for Shafa’ah (intercession) for us, for our ancestors and children, for protection, for love towards him ﷺ for us and for our children.

May Allah ﷻ for the sake of this holy month help Muslims everywhere, help human beings everywhere, to show them the way, the right way, the way of happiness. Because human beings tried everything like communism, socialism, capitalism, -ism, -ism, many things; they tried them all but nothing helped them. The only way for human beings to be safe is to follow Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. And in the end, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla’s promise is that the whole world will be insha’Allah accepting Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. That time, there will be peace for the whole world. Otherwise, there cannot be any peace in this world. The only way: Salam Islam. (The only way for Salam (peace) is Islam.) May Allah ﷻ make these days to come quickly to save the whole world from this. 

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Bismillahir-Rahmani-Raheem

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Welcome to you, all of you. It’s the first time we’re here. We are happy AlhamduliLlah. When people have happiness, we are happy also. For what we must be happy? For the love of Allah ﷻ. ‘قُلْ بِفَضْلِ اللَّهِ وَبِرَحْمَتِهِ فَبِذَٰلِكَ فَلْيَفْرَحُوا هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِّمَّا يَجْمَعُونَ’, ‘Qul bifaḍli Llahi wa biraḥmatihi fabidhālika falyafraḥū huwa khayrun mimmā yajma‘ūn’, ‘Say, “In the bounty of Allah and in His mercy – in that let them rejoice”; that is better than what they accumulate.’ (Qur’ān 10:58). Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying in the Qur’an that you must be happy with what Allah ﷻ gave you.

And this is better than what you are collecting. What you collect will not be with you; nothing goes with people when they die. They collect houses, cars, jewelry, gold. People collect everything thinking it will be for them forever, but not. Now we are coming here. Before maybe 50 years, there were other people here. Maybe some of them are still alive. But maybe a hundred years ago, many people also had a house, land, they had everything – they’re not here anymore. Other people if they wake up from death and look, “Oh who are these foreign people. They are living in our land, in our house, in our place. We don’t know them.” Nobody knows the other. The new ones don’t know who the old ones are. And they old ones don’t know who the new ones are. But Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla said about the thing you will get in the next life: it will be forever. For this, ‘هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِّمَّا يَجْمَعُونَ’, ‘Huwa khayrun mimmā yajma‘ūn’, ‘That is better than what they accumulate.’ (Qur’ān 10:58). It is better from what they collect, what they earn, what they save.

We don’t know anything about Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla’s wisdom. The wisdom of Him ﷻ creating people and each one not thinking he will die. And everybody, every day people are dying. Nobody is living forever here. But still, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla made people in life to think that they will never die. We see many people who are even very sick, very ill. They come [to us] and they don’t believe they will die, [saying], “We are making this treatment, that treatment. Make Dua.” But they are already: not only one leg in the grave, their two legs are in the grave and they are still not believing that they will die.

This is the wisdom of Allah ﷻ. He ﷻ gave people this thinking to test them. He ﷻ sends two angels every day to Dunya and they are shouting, saying, announcing: “لِدُوا لِلمَوتِ وَ ابنُوا لِلخَرَابِ”, “Lidu lil-Mawt wabnu lil-Kharab”, “Be born only to be dead and build only to be ruined.” Which means be born for death and build to be demolished, destroyed. When you are born, death is coming. This is what happened in Italy, Masha’Allah a very ancient place. Everywhere they were building very big [buildings] and then everything was finished [destroyed]. This again, every day they are building and they think it will be forever. No, it will also be finished.

So who has good thinking listens to this. “What must we do? We are listening, but what must we do? Okay we will die. What must we do?” We will die, what must you do. It is okay. Allah ﷻ says you will die. How to save ourselves for the real life, for the life forever? It is not so difficult. Every day we are eating, we are drinking, we are walking, coming, going. This is our habit, the human beings’ habit or any creature’s habit. For our body, it is important to do this. But there is another habit also that you must put with this to be perfect. It is an important thing for spirituality and for our body also. To obey what Allah ﷻ orders us and to not do what He ﷻ doesn’t want. You can pray five times a day. When it becomes – many people say it is difficult. Okay you can begin slowly slowly. When it becomes a habit, you cannot leave it. This gives your spirituality power, and for your body also. Because every time you pray and obey Allah ﷻ, Allah ﷻ is happy with you and your body is happy with you. Other thing also – it is to fast. This is also from the orders of Allah ﷻ. And this also gives you happiness and gives you power for your body and for your spirituality also.

When you do this, your life takes meaning. “Why am I here?” Many people don’t know why Allah ﷻ created them. When you know the reason, you will be happy and you will be thankful for your Creator. If you don’t know, you’ll be unhappy and you won’t know what you’re doing all the time. You are doing many things that are of no benefit for you and no benefit for others also. But when you do this [His ﷻ orders], around you also comes light, Nur insha’Allah. This light is from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Allah ﷻ gives it only for believers. But who are not believers don’t have this light. Even here in many churches, cathedrals or something, in all pictures they put light on holy people. So this is not only imagination; it is true. Who are not believers can find darkness only.

And the third order of Allah ﷻ: to make Zakat. This is also to make your money and what you have to be clean. It is mercy from Allah ﷻ to give this. And if everybody – now we are in a non-Muslim country, but if Muslim people give, it is enough for all the poor people in the world, but they are not giving. This is very few: only 2.5% each year for what you have that you must pay for Zakat. And if they give, it is enough for all poor people. They are making taxes in this country or in Europe or other, maybe 50%, 70%, and I heard in some place 80%. They take taxes and it doesn’t do benefit for anything. Why? Because it is not the order of Allah ﷻ. The order is 2.5%. It is enough and it is Barakah for all people. This is a secret and wisdom from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla for human beings. “If you obey Me ﷻ, a very few thing is enough for you.” But because they are not believers, they are not listening at all to this.

The fifth one is to make Hajj, pilgrimage. It is also a big favor from Allah ﷻ for believers, to clean them. Everybody who goes there with sincerity, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, “I forgive them as they are a newborn baby.” This is not a difficult thing. Maybe when you are doing it, shaytan makes it look difficult for you. But when you do it and finish, you feel the benefit of this. […] Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
لَا تَقْنَطُوا مِن رَّحْمَةِ اللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ جَمِيعًا
(Qur’ān 39:53) ‘Lā Taqnatū Min Raĥmati Allāhi ۚ ‘Inna Allāha Yaghfiru dh-Dhunūba Jamī’āan’, ‘Do not despair of the mercy of Allah . Indeed, Allah forgives all sins.’ Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying don’t be hopeless. We are living in a time when the whole world is looking hopeless because they don’t have belief, they don’t have Iman. This is a problem for them: they don’t have hope. But for the Mu’min, for the believer hope is all the time there. Allah ﷻ exists. The Only Real One in existence is Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, Allah Almighty ‘Azza wa-Jalla.

So what we have in this world, in our life: all of this is for us as a test. We are not in Paradise. We are in a place for Allah ﷻ to examine us: what you do good, what you’re not doing good. And He ﷻ gives His ﷻ reward in this world, and the biggest reward in the other world. And He ﷻ gives punishment also in this world and the biggest punishment in the next world. Who believes in Allah ﷻ and is with Allah ﷻ will be happy; nothing affects him.

Every time be hopeful. You must know this is not your business to manage Dunya, to make – thinking that by your thinking you will make it better. This is what nonbelievers do: they try to make it better, but it becomes worse and worse and worse. But for the believer it is good and good and good; nothing bad. May Allah ﷻ make us to be with Him ﷻ.

Don’t be hopeless. This is a very important thing. Be all the time happy. Your heart must be happy. You must be happy because everything is changing; nothing stays the same. Only Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is not changing. So all of this what happened is not abnormal. It is normal. So don’t be hopeless. This is very important for all human beings insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ make us with His ﷻ Prophet ﷺ and with good people insha’Allah, and to be all the time happy insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm: “يَا مُفَتِّحَ الْاَبْوابِ اِفْتَحْ لَنَا خَيْرَ الْبَابِ”, “O Opener of doors, open for us the best door.” May Allah ﷻ make every action of ours the means for goodness. May it be for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ.

It is said, “أَنْتَ تُرِيدُ وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ وَالله يَفْعَلُ مَا يُرِيد”, It is a beautiful saying. You want and I want, but Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla does whatever He ﷻ wants. Everything is not like the people, servants want it. Whatever Allah ﷻ wants happens. So may whatever you want be what Allah ﷻ wants. May it be the way Allah ﷻ loves it. May your everything be for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. Insha’Allah you will win then.

Otherwise, not everything you want happens. When it doesn’t happen, you get upset. People without Iman are like this. They get upset when it doesn’t happen. People with Iman say, “This is the will of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. We will accept it. As the will of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is so, we will follow the will of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. There is nothing we can do. We do what we can. And the rest will happen however Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla wants it. It is always so”.

People are in stress and trouble. This is their main issue. They say they are doing something but then it doesn’t work out. It means Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla didn’t want it. If everything everyone wants happened, everyone would be successful and lived as they like. However, as this world is not paradise, this is a test. And in order to pass the test, you must know it is a test, you must know it is the will of Allah ﷻ.

Don’t think you lost the things that didn’t happen according to your mind. There are rewards in all of this for believers. May Allah ﷻ help us believe in things like this. May He ﷻ help us always remember Him ﷻ insha’Allah. When it is so, we will be in comfort in worldly matters and attain rewards for this. May Allah ﷻ be pleased with all of us insha’Allah. May every action of ours be beautiful and good insha’Allah.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is saying that whoever asks for the pleasure of people and stays away from the pleasure of Allah ﷻ stays away from the Mercy of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla.

Staying away from the orders of Allah ﷻ, from Allah ﷻ for pleasing people is not a clever thing. Because whatever you do, you cannot make people happy. No matter how much you do, mankind is never happy. Mankind is ungrateful. Therefore, if you strive to make them happy and tire yourself, you strive in vain. Just like attempting to empty the sea by taking water from one side and pouring it out in the other side, you do a useless thing.

If you do for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ, you will gain. As long as Allah ﷻ is happy and pleased with you, the rest is not important at all. What’s important is the pleasure of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. And Allah ﷻ is pleased with you even when you do the smallest thing. He ﷻ rewards you ten fold of what you do and gives you Thawab.

No matter how much you do for people, they are never happy. You can give people worlds, they still say, “No this and that. You did I don’t know what.” They swear at people and are never pleased. When there isn’t the pleasure of Allah ﷻ, people get their punishment. But when you do for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ and then people, whomever they are, don’t like it as much as they want, that is not important. What’s important is that Allah ﷻ is pleased. You must make Shukr for that.

Whatever everyone is doing according to their capacity, they must do it all for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. But no, “This one has to like it.” There are many bizarre things now. As if their egos are not enough for people lately, they rather say “This one liked me” and play the fool. They talk nonsense, they swear and do I don’t know what. “This many people liked me and that many people disliked me”. There is a such trend now.

They don’t think about Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla at all. They roll over, play the fool and do strange things only to be liked by people. They never think of Allah ﷻ being pleased with them or not. They don’t care about it. In order for some man or woman to like them, they do so many things. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ give mind and understanding to people and to us insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla always be in our hearts and in our minds insha’Allah. Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

There are recited Qur’an Khatms, Salawat, Tasbihat, Tahlilat. They passed everything recited for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ by our brothers from all over the world to gift them firstly to our Holy Prophet ﷺ, his Ahlu l-Bayt and Sahabah, the souls of all Anbiya, Awliya and Mashayikh, the souls of all our late relatives. For goodness to come and evil to be gone.

Li-Llahi Ta’ala l-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
وَقُلِ الْحَقُّ مِن رَّبِّكُمْ ۖ فَمَن شَاءَ فَلْيُؤْمِن وَمَن شَاءَ فَلْيَكْفُرْ
(Qur’ān 18:29). ‘Wa Quli Al-Ĥaqqu Min Rabbikum, Faman Shā’a Falyu’umin Wa Man Shā’a Falyakfur’, ‘And say, “The truth is from your Lord, so whoever wills – let him believe; and whoever wills – let him disbelieve”.’ Sadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying to our Holy Prophet ﷺ, “Speak the words of truth. Whoever wants may believe and whoever wants may remain in Kufr.”

You must speak the truth. This is the way of our Holy Prophet ﷺ and the way of Prophets from the beginning. It is necessary to tell people about the truth. We must describe the true and beautiful way to them. Whoever is meant will go on this way. Whoever is not meant will leave this way.

The second way is the way of Kafirs which leads to Kufr. It is the way of those who don’t recognize Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Their way is to hell, nowhere else. It is either to paradise or to hell. Therefore, may we be with the Haqq (truth) insha’Allah.

Whoever wants paradise must accept the truth. He must go on its way. The truth is clear. But when people follow their egos, they are not on the way of truth. Because the ego always joins the way which is easy or is liked by it, whereas it is neither easy, nor it will like it. The further someone goes, the deeper he drowns in it. The further he goes, the more he falls in darkness. There will be hardship and all kinds of things.

They say when someone follows a bad person, he can’t get out of troubles. There are many proverbs some of which are cruel and some of which are softer. There are many proverbs that describe the condition of the person who goes after a bad friend. No need to tell them in this assembly. But what’s important is the holy word of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla He ﷻ says to us in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan, “وَمَن شَاءَ فَلْيَكْفُرْ ۚ إِنَّا أَعْتَدْنَا لِلظَّالِمِينَ نَارًا أَحَاطَ بِهِمْ سُرَادِقُهَا”, “Wa Man Shā’a Falyakfur, ‘Innā ‘A`tadnā Lilžžālimīna Nārāan ‘Aĥāţa Bihim Surādiquhā”, “And whoever wills – let him disbelieve.” Indeed, We have prepared for the wrongdoers a fire whose walls will surround them.” (Qur’ān 18:29) – “We sent such a fire to them that it has covered everything.” And only by returning to the way of truth that there is salvation. Otherwise, it is impossible. There is still time. There is time to return to the way of truth. Whoever is not on the way of truth lives in vain and brings harm to others. May Allah ﷻ give them guidance insha’Allah. May people see the truth.

Shukr to Allah ﷻ, what our Holy Prophet ﷺ and all Prophets wish is goodness to people and their salvation. They don’t wish for anything else. But people harm them and go against them. Prophets say in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan, “We don’t ask for any payment. The only thing we ask for and our happiness is people reaching guidance. This is our greatest wish.” Insha’Allah Mu’mins should think the same way. We don’t wish badness to people. However, those who leave the way and go against Allah ﷻ will see their own harm. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ give guidance insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Bismillahir-Rahmani-Raheem

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying when you borrow money, write it down between yourselves. How much you borrow and all; have a witness for it so that it is easy for you to pay it back. Mawlana Shaykh Nazim says debt pushes away Barakah. Why does it push it away? Because many people think it is their money when they borrow it and that they may or may not give it back. There is not such a thing. When it is so, Barakah goes away. And when there is no Barakah, things are done in vain. There is loss then.

Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says that whoever has the intention of paying it back when he takes a debt, Allah ﷻ gives him ease in returning it. Allah ﷻ gives him Barakah, and he pays his debt easily. But the intention of many people is bad from the beginning, unfortunately. That debt increases and they are not able to pay it back. They have more hardship. They have problems, arguments, courts and this and that. If they have paid something already, if they have written that down, that remains incomplete. They give half of the money to lawyers and half to I don’t know whom. There is no benefit.

This beautiful saying of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is that your intention must be pure when you take a debt. And write it down so that you don’t deny it later by obeying your ego. There is nothing as a promise these days. No one, maybe one in a thousand or one in a ten thousand people keep their words. The rest is rubbish and useless things. They are doing so in order to cheat people. They promise so much and forget about giving their word saying, “I didn’t say such a thing”. People are capable of saying this. Why? Because they’ve given not only one but a thousand promises, and they kept none of them. Even if they have kept their promise, they forget about it.

Therefore, your intention must certainly be pure when you borrow money. “This is not mine. If I don’t pay it back, certainly, I will give its account later”. There certainly is the Day of Reckoning. Accounts will be taken on the Day of Reckoning. He ﷻ is the Witness. He ﷻ is the One who knows. Everything is in His ﷻ Hand. Nothing escapes from Him ﷻ. They must know that they will give the account in front of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and act accordingly. People who know this are not in need of anything with the permission of Allah ﷻ.

May Allah ﷻ improve people. You hear bizarre things every day. Allah ﷻ created them as humans, but they have left their humanity. May Allah ﷻ improve us all insha’Allah.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الْمُتَّقِينَ
(Qur’ān 03:76). ‘Fa-inna Allaha Yuh’ibbu l-Muttaqeen’, ‘Indeed, Allah loves those who fear Him.’ Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla loves people who obey Allah ﷻ, who show respect to Allah ﷻ and who fear Allah ﷻ. To be beloved servants of Allah ﷻ is something Muslims ask for.

‘Awliya means beloved servants of Allah ﷻ. A beloved servant of Allah ﷻ is the one who obeys Him ﷻ and who carries out His ﷻ orders. The way people of the present time see ‘Awliya is that he must have Karamah and do everything they want. That is also possible. But what a beloved servant of Allah ﷻ, Waliyu’Llah does is the thing that everyone must do. What is that? That is to do things ordered by Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and to stay away from the things that are forbidden. Those who do this are beloved servants of Allah ﷻ.

‘إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْكَافِرِينَ’, ‘Inna Allāha lā yuhibbu l-kāfirīn’, ‘Indeed, Allah does not like the disbelievers.’ (Qur’ān 03:32). Allah ﷻ doesn’t love Kafirs. Some foolish people keep asking why He ﷻ gave them various opportunities if He ﷻ doesn’t love them. First of all, you cannot interfere in the business of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. The mind cannot comprehend His ﷻ wisdom. You cannot ask this. If you want to be a beloved servant of Allah ﷻ, you must not interfere in the things He ﷻ does. You must mind yourself. And if you are going on this way, you must make Shukr to Allah ﷻ so that you are even a more beloved servant of Allah ﷻ.

You cannot say, “Why does He ﷻ love this one and does not love the other one?” He ﷻ doesn’t love them. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla doesn’t love people in Kufr. And why is He ﷻ giving them opportunities? Because this world has no value and so that people wouldn’t say they went in Kufr because they didn’t have anything. Everything is given to you. Yet, you are going against Allah ﷻ.

These are the people of this time. They want to interfere in everything. They say “It is democracy. We will talk about everything”. But that is a big lie. They can talk as much as they want. These forces of evil, people of shaytan are ruling as they like, as this world is in their hands. Therefore, mind yourself. Be a beloved servant of Allah ﷻ. Go on His ﷻ way. And don’t interfere in anything else.

You are living in this time, so look at it as a benefit and trade. The more difficult it is, the higher your rank and Thawab will increase. And what is easy, Allah ﷻ will make it easy insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ make the difficult easy. It is the Dua of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. May He ﷻ make for us easy what we see as difficult insha’Allah. May He ﷻ not test us insha’Allah. 

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
اعْدِلُوا هُوَ أَقْرَبُ لِلتَّقْوَىٰ
(Qur’ān 05:08). ‘A’dilū Huwa ‘Aqrabu Li t-taqwa’, ‘Be just; that is nearer to piety.’ Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla advises and orders people and Muslims to always act upon justice.

They call it a legal year and make judicial vacation. (The Ministry of) Justice goes on vacation in summer. And then they open around this time and go on working. Justice is the most important thing. Sayyidina Umar said, “العدل اساس الملك” May Allah ﷻ be pleased with him. “Justice Is The Foundation of Ruling.” Without justice, property and all of it will not have a proper foundation. There won’t be any law and rights.

There are courts, Shukr to Allah ﷻ. There is everything; there are judges and lawyers. But unfortunately, there is no justice. Not only here, but anywhere in the world there is nothing like justice. Even the most advanced countries of the world which see themselves as the most civilized ones don’t have any justice. They do whatever their egos want and what is in their benefit. It is the same here as well. May Allah ﷻ help people.

It is a different issue whether they are doing right or wrong. However, the main issue is not to extend the case. Justice that comes late is useless justice. It is pointless justice. It is important to do immediately what is clear and seen there without delaying and to close the case at one sitting. If you couldn’t close it at one or two sittings, it must certainly be closed at the third sitting.

There are cases that last for years and decades. When you win it finally, the man is gone and nothing is there. To whom is this beneficial? To no one. They are both making the government busy and extending the useless things. They are extending the useless things and are not finishing the useful things.

Unfortunately, we must say the truth. It is fine if the truth annoys someone. The main thing is the ruling of Allah ﷻ. Allah ﷻ orders to do justice, to directly give the rights to their owners and to punish the wrongful ones. This is the order of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla.

Unfortunately, as we said, the whole world is based on injustice. Don’t think that Switzerland, America or this and that are as they say they are the first world countries. Allah ﷻ knows, what number we are. But we are all the same. There is unlawfulness and injustice all over the world. And the worst is that people who see themselves as civilized and laugh at us don’t recognize the main human rights and rights of Muslims. When it comes to their benefit, they stake a claim to everything and say, “We are this. We are that”. If you tell them “Come and show us how it is. The book is here, the law is here. Show us where your justice is. Where is what you call justice? How are you doing this? Tell us about it.” There is nothing. All of them are about oppression, oppression, oppression and nothing else. May Allah ﷻ help us. May Allah ﷻ send the Sahib. May the lawfulness emerge insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
وَلَا مُبَدِّلَ لِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ
(Qur’ān 06:34). ‘Wa la Mubaddila li Kalimati Allah’, ‘And none can alter the words of Allah.’ Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says that no one can change the Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan, the words of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla Himself guards and protects it.

Many people who wanted to change it have come out after our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. But Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla doesn’t give them a chance. His ﷻ word is Haqq (true). It is the true word of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla among people in this world. Other things apart from it have changed. Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan is the only thing that didn’t change. By the wisdom of Allah ﷻ it has to remain as benefit to humanity.

Tawrat, Injeel, Zabur, whatever there is; they’ve changed 99% of them. They are heavenly books of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla sent down to the Prophets. The wisdom is that their time is over. Step by step until the time of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, as he salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is the last Prophet, it is the last book. It contains all of them. It contains everything. BismiLlahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim: ‘وَلَا رَطْبٍ وَلَا يَابِسٍ إِلَّا فِي كِتَابٍ مُّبِينٍ’, ‘Wa Lā Raţbin Wa Lā Yā Bisin ‘Illā Fī Kitābin Mubīnin’, ‘And no moist or dry [thing] but that it is [written] in a clear record.’ (Qur’ān 06:59). Nothing is outside of it.

We hold it in our hands as a great blessing. It is a blessing from all aspects. Reading and listening to each letter of it is of virtue, Barakah and Thawab. For each letter, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is writing down ranks and Thawab to the Muslims and Mu’mins who read it. Therefore, it is a great blessing to be in Islam, to live in Islam and to understand Islam. People who believe in others’ words and show disrespect obey their weak egos. They are at loss.

It is something amazing. As the only true book of Allah ﷻ and true words of Allah ﷻ among people, we can hold it in our hands. We are reading it with our mouths. We are listening to it. It is a great blessing. We are together with Allah ﷻ then. We are together with Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla.

It is a beautiful blessing. We must know its value. Shukr to Allah ﷻ, Muslims and Mu’mins know it. But there are many people who don’t know. There are many people who reach guidance through it. And there are people without Iman, non-Muslim people who joined Islam through it, through its Barakah. There are millions of such people. May Allah ﷻ not decrease its Barakah upon us. May it be in our hearts insha’Allah. May He ﷻ not let us forget what we know insha’Allah.

Oftentimes children are brought up as Hafiz. Bringing up a Hafiz is easy. But it is difficult to keep it inside. We must pay attention to that as well. If someone is Hojja, he teaches children. But parents must take care of the rest and say, “You have learnt this. Read 2-3 Juz a day so that you don’t forget”. Or they should learn as much as they won’t forget. May Allah ﷻ protect us insha’Allah, because it is punishable to forget it.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says that the bad characteristics of the ego are together with people throughout their lives. And the last one from bad characteristics of people that leaves before they die is Hubb-u Riyasah (Love of Headship). Leadership, promotion, being above people; that is the last thing that leaves.

What we mean is that people of the present time, all of them [have it] – they were like this in old times too, but now it is more intense. In old times, there were Sultan and Pharaoh. So there was a limit up to which they could rise. But nowadays everyone wants to see himself in the highest rank. And those with high ranks strive to rise even higher.

That brings benefit if they are on the way of Allah ﷻ. They can serve people and they can serve Muslims. But if they are on their own way and on the way of their egos, that is bad. And everything is messed up now. We are living in the end of times. It is everywhere. Wherever there are people, this disease is certainly there. People surely strive to rise higher.

You are rising for this world. It has no benefit. Many people start their journey for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. But later, their egos mislead them. And that is big danger. Therefore, it is better not to start this thing. Not entering this path for people who cannot control their egos is more beneficial and better. Because there are various things that may distance them away from the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. There are flatterers around who pamper people, and a person thinks he is an important one. But when they fall down, no one comes near them. They cheat themselves. They cheat themselves in the beginning. But later they start cheating others.

The world we live in is like this. They call it fake world. Therefore, don’t be cheated by this world. Be like the Sultans. What did the Ottoman Sultans say? They said this beautiful thing – Sultanhood is a meaningless fight… It is a nice saying. We cannot remember it in full. But Sultans said this world is something meaningless. Yet, they did their duty for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. They lived for the benefit of Ummah, for the pleasure of our Holy Prophet ﷺ in order to spread the orders of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla everywhere and in order to do justice.

We should take them as an example. We should look at them in all aspects. In the end, the great Sultans passed away without taking anything. But Shukr to Allah ﷻ, what they attained is enough for them. They attained the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. They attained the pleasure of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. We must be like them.

People nowadays don’t know what to do with each other in order to become an associate of a local authority. There is nothing they won’t do to each other; tricks, plots and all kinds of things. Whereas Sultans held the whole universe in their hands. But it wasn’t in their hearts. It was in their hands. They walked on the way of Allah ﷻ. We live with their Barakah Shukr to Allah ﷻ. There is so much Barakah. May Allah ﷻ be pleased with them insha’Allah. 

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

وَاللَّهُ مُتِمُّ نُورِهِ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْكَافِرُونَ

(Qur’ān 61:08). ‘Wa Llahu mutimmu nūrihi walaw kariha l-kāfirūn, ‘Allah will perfect His light, even though the disbelievers dislike it.’ Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says the religion will complete its light in this world. His ﷻ promise is Haqq (true). Even if Kafirs don’t like it, this light will surely be complete. The whole world will be Muslim with the permission of Allah ﷻ.

After Hadrat Sultan Abdul Hamid, may paradise be his abode, Muslims have become weaker. Islam did not become weaker. There had been attacks against Islam everywhere since old times. But afterwards, it has become more. There is a worse attack to end Islam.

The worst of them are the groups who look Muslim and strive to destroy Islam. They obey their egos. They follow their egos. And they have enmity against the religion for their personal interests. People who think they will attain something through this are people who are disliked by Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. They used to call such people unfortunate in old times. They are people with no luck, as they have gone astray. They are almost out of the religion. Because they talk according to their own minds, the opposite of what Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and our Holy Prophet ﷺ say. And they mislead others by claiming that is Islam. It means these people have no luck at all. They can earn as much money as they want and be famous as much as they want, they just resemble shaytan. Just like many people follow shaytan and do what he wants, it is the same with these people. They are wicked people on the wicked way.

They are striving to destroy Islam now everywhere. They think it will be destroyed. Islam cannot be destroyed. There is the promise of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla; Qiyamah will not take place unless the light is complete with the permission of Allah ﷻ.

They are defaming Islam from all sides these days. They are going against Islam. They think they have attained something. Everything they do is as Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, ‘إِنَّ كَيْدَ الشَّيْطَانِ كَانَ ضَعِيفًا’, ‘Inna kayda l-shayṭāni kana dha‘īfā’, Indeed, the plot of Satan has ever been weak.’ (Qur’ān 04:76). The plots and tricks of shaytan are weak. He thinks the whole world belongs to him. Everything he does will be destroyed in an instant. And Islam will manifest itself.

Those who will remain under ruins will be the people who are happy with what he does and who brag about what he does. Those who follow him will be under the ruins of this destruction. And they will never have any second chance anymore. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ spread the light of Islam as soon as possible insha’Allah, because indeed we live in the worst and darkest time. From all aspects. Even people who call themselves human are aware of it. But they don’t know what to do.

Shukr to Allah ﷻ, we have the promise of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. And we are waiting for it. We don’t have hopelessness. Who have hopelessness? People who don’t see ahead and who don’t know what is coming. May Allah ﷻ give Iman to people insha’Allah. Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

There are recited Qur’an Khatms, Yasin, Ayat, Surahs, Tasbihat, Tahlilat and Salawat. We gift everything recited passed to us for gifting firstly to our Holy Prophet ﷺ, his Ahlu l-Bayt and Sahabah, the souls of all Anbiya, Awliya, Asfiya and Mashayikh, souls of all our late relatives, especially the souls of our Shaykh Mawlana Shaykh Nazim, Hala Sultan, Hajjah Anne Sultan, the souls of all of our late relatives, the souls of Muslims and Mu’mins. For goodness to come and evil to be gone, insha’Allah may we have strength in our Iman.

Li-Llahi Ta’ala l-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
أَفَحَسِبْتُمْ أَنَّمَا خَلَقْنَاكُمْ عَبَثًا وَأَنَّكُمْ إِلَيْنَا لَا تُرْجَعُونَ
(Qur’ān 23:115). ‘Afaĥasibtum ‘Annamā Khalaqnākum `Abathāan Wa ‘Annakum ‘Ilaynā Lā Turja`ūn’, ‘Then did you think that We created you uselessly and that to Us you would not be returned?’ Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan, “Did we create you for nothing?”

There are silly people now who say creation is something that happened by coincidence and confuse other people. Those with weak Iman lose their Iman. Their Iman is gone. They don’t know what to do and whom to believe. And then they lead many people to Kufr. They lead others to denying the Creator. Every time they let someone lose his faith, they will get their punishment for each of them.

Atheism is not a skill. It is not cleverness. It is never a good thing, because real life is as Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, “You will return to us”. You are ranting and raving here. But there, you will be punished, and there is no coming back from it. As much as the sins Mu’mins who believe in Allah ﷻ commit, they will be cleaned in hell and then go to paradise. But people in Kufr will stay in hell forever. There is no salvation for them.

These people who newly came out have found comfort and are confused on what to do. “Should I follow this one, or should I follow that one?” Whereas, you have found the best way. Allah ﷻ has granted it to you. No need to look for something else. Be steadfast on this way. Life is short anyway. Leave this life with belief in Allah ﷻ in the end so that there is salvation for you in the real life.

Not everyone has Iman, of course. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla didn’t give it to everyone. So those who are given it must appreciate it. Because when there is comfort, it makes people wild. Comfort is not good. Therefore, our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says, “اخْشَوْشِنوا فإنَّ النِّعمَ لا تدومُ”, Adapt to a tough life, as favors don’t last. Favors are not there all the time.

Comfort brings wildness to people. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying, وَلَوْ بَسَطَ اللَّهُ الرِّزْقَ لِعِبَادِهِ لَبَغَوْا فِي الْأَرْضِ’, ‘Wa Law Basaţa Allāhu Ar-Rizqa Li`ibādihi Labaghaw Fī Al-‘Arđ’, ‘And if Allah had extended [excessively] provision for His servants, they would surely rebel in the earth.’ (Qur’ān 42:27). Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm. This is Haqq (true) what He ﷻ says. When people are given comfort, people go wild. This is our condition now. They are bringing up various things. Whereas in old times, people didn’t have the opportunity to think about such things in pursuit of earning a living.

Now there is free time. They have this tool [phones] in their hands, and things are posted from everywhere. They think that is right, and they know the right as wrong. May Allah ﷻ protect us from the evil of these people. They do the biggest evil. Faithlessness and what they call atheism is the biggest evil.

But Shukr to Allah ﷻ, many people are coming to their senses. When those who have been in such a condition for a period of time use their minds, they return to the right way. They see that people who are saying this know nothing. They do it only for their personal interest or as they are cheated by shaytan because of going after shaytan. There are people who leave them and come to the right way. May Allah ﷻ increase such people. May Allah ﷻ give guidance to people.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
إِنَّا عَرَضْنَا الْأَمَانَةَ عَلَى السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَالْجِبَالِ فَأَبَيْنَ أَن يَحْمِلْنَهَا وَأَشْفَقْنَ مِنْهَا وَحَمَلَهَا الْإِنسَانُ ۖ إِنَّهُ كَانَ ظَلُومًا جَهُولًا
(Qur’ān 33:72). ‘Innā `Arađnā Al-‘Amānata `Alá As-Samāwāti Wa Al-‘Arđi Wa Al-Jibāli Fa’abayna ‘An Yaĥmilnahā Wa ‘Ashfaqna Minhā Wa Ĥamalahā Al-‘Insānu ۖ ‘Innahu Kāna Žalūmāan Jahūlāan’, ‘Indeed, we offered the Trust to the heavens and the earth and the mountains, and they declined to bear it and feared it; but man [undertook to] bear it. Indeed, he was unjust and ignorant.’ Sadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying, “We offered the heavens, mountains, earth and this and that to take the trust, but they didn’t accept it. They got scared”. They got scared of the responsibility. But mankind accepted it because they are both unjust and ignorant. They are very ignorant.

A trust is something important. And the trust is of course Iman and orders Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla gave to people. Even mountains didn’t accept that as the responsibility was big. But mankind accepted. Certainly, those who maintain the trust are very few. Many are those who don’t maintain it.

Trustworthy is the attribute of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. Muhammadu l-Amin salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. The religion which is Haqq/true was passed to our Holy Prophet ﷺ as a trust. And he ﷺ passed it to his ﷺ Ummah. Protecting this trust is the duty and obligation of people. Doing this raises people to high ranks.

The trust can be of any kind. People must guard what is given to them and return it to its owner. Passing the spiritual trust to others, if there is one, is the duty of people too. But unfortunately people nowadays have little left of trust. There is betrayal of the trust now; may Allah ﷻ protect us. Therefore, may we guard the trust properly insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ give us strength. May we not obey our egos. The ego doesn’t know what a trust is. And shaytan is the enemy of the trust.

It is the way of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. People say they love our Holy Prophet ﷺ, but then they have nothing from being trustworthy. They are liars. May Allah ﷻ make us from people who maintain the trust. May He ﷻ not make us from those who betray the trust insha’Allah. People who maintain the trust are beautiful people.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
إِنَّ النَّفْسَ لَأَمَّارَةٌ بِالسُّوءِ إِلَّا مَا رَحِمَ رَبِّي ۚ إِنَّ رَبِّي غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
(Qur’ān 12:53). ‘Inna An-Nafsa La- ‘Ammāratun Bis-Sū’i ‘Illā Mā Raĥima Rabbī ۚ ‘Inna Rabbī Ghafūrun Raĥīm’, ‘Verily, the (human) self is inclined to evil, except when my Lord bestows His Mercy (upon whom He wills). Verily, my Lord is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.’

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says the ego has its levels. The first level is Nafs ul-Ammara. What does Ammara mean? It means the one that orders. What is it ordering? It is ordering badness. All people have this. Ego doesn’t order goodness. Everyone has it, not just 99% but 999‰. Only 1 ‰ is not under the command of his ego. 999‰ are people under the command of their egos. What is it ordering? It is ordering all kinds of badness. Moreover, it is right in everything. Others are wrong. All faults, sins and flaws: it doesn’t have them but others do. It claims to be very clean. This is what the ego orders.

All the badness and troubles happening in this world are because of this. They are because of obeying the ego and not controlling the ego. Everything, all badness is because of the ego, because it orders badness and doesn’t order goodness. How can goodness come from a person who is ordered badness? It cannot.

Therefore, there is training of the ego in Islam. And the ego has its levels. Next comes Nafs ul-Lawwamah. It is the second level where you tell your ego, “You are bad. What you say is not right. What you do is not right”. There are six or seven levels. Only Prophets reach the highest level. However, what’s important is to get rid of the first level. It is the lowest level. Don’t agree with everything it says. At least, say no to 1%. Do not follow it 100%. Step by step it will increase, and you will get rid of that rank. It is not a rank but a position. A rank is for being raised. People are raised higher then. People will join the beloved servants of Allah ﷻ. They will be raised.

Otherwise, they do not think anything done is fitting for themselves. They find faults and flaws in others. Therefore, people don’t have any benefit. Many people sometimes say, “Tell me if I am mistaken”. If you tell them, they get upset. They become resentful and don’t like it. Many people say, “Tell me if I am mistaken” just to say it. Even if they don’t get upset when you tell them, they still go on with that [what they’re doing]. May Allah ﷻ protect us from the evil of our egos and from the evil of shaytan. May Allah ﷻ give strength to our Iman insha’Allah.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
إِنَّ نَاشِئَةَ اللَّيْلِ هِيَ أَشَدُّ وَطْئًا وَأَقْوَمُ قِيلًا
(Qur’ān 73:06). ‘Inna Nāshi’ata Al-Layli Hiya ‘Ashaddu Waţ’āan Wa ‘Aqwamu Qīlāan’, ‘Verily, the rising by night (for Tahajjud prayer) is very hard and most potent and good for governing (the soul), and most suitable for (understanding) the Word (of Allah).’ Sadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says the night is more difficult. It has more Thawab and is more powerful. Worship performed at night is much more superior than worship performed during the day. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says that because it is difficult for people to get up from their sleep.

Praying at least two Rakā’at by getting up for Tahajjud prayer before Fajr prayer is more virtuous than praying a thousand Rakā’at during the day. Therefore, it is more valuable. The more difficulty there is, the more favors and rewards Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla gives to people. He ﷻ gives more Thawab, increases their Maqam and Barakah becomes more. Tahajjud is getting up after going to bed.

As it is difficult to get up for Tahajjud and Fajr prayer – some people lead night life. There are two types of night life: one is on the way of Allah ﷻ and the other one is on the way of shaytan. In the night life on the way of shaytan, they run around until before Tahajjud. They go to bed right then and don’t get up. They don’t pray at all anyway. They miss the virtue of that time as they are together with shaytan.

Otherwise, believers go to bed on time and get up on time. And they are present at Fajr prayer. Whoever can, goes to mosque. Who cannot go, prays at home. But they surely must pray before the sun rises. And if they can pray at least two Rakā’at of Tahajjud before Fajr prayer, it is even better. They can pray more: 8, 10 or 12 Rakā’at. But if it is too difficult, praying at least two Rakā’at is a great profit and great benefit for them. It has a very high value.

People nowadays see the value only as physical interest. The real interest and benefit is the spiritual benefit. Allah ﷻ is not granting this to everyone. Whoever is granted this is a profitable and lucky person. May Allah ﷻ give this beauty to all of us. It is beneficial from all aspects. It has great benefit both physically and spiritually.

The virtue of the times of prayers is great too. From all aspects: in virtue, benefit, health and Barakah, it is a great profit. May Allah ﷻ make it perpetual insha’Allah. Those who do it must make Shukr to Allah ﷻ. Those who don’t do it should make effort to do so insha’Allah.

Shaytan doesn’t want it. Shaytan never wants any goodness for you. When shaytan says, “Lie down, you will get up later. You are tired”, people think he is doing goodness to them. Whereas shaytan says, “I don’t want you to be in profit”. He wishes all kinds of evil and badness to happen to you out of his envy and evil. May Allah ﷻ protect us from the evil of shaytan and the evil of the ego. May He ﷻ give us strong Iman. Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

There are recited Qur’an Khatms, Ayat, Surahs, Tasbihat, Tahlilat and Salawat. We gift all of these beautiful recited recitations firstly to our Holy Prophet ﷺ, his Ahlu l-Bayt and Sahabah, the souls of all Anbiya, Awliya, Asfiya, the souls of our late relatives, the souls of our Mashayikh, the souls of all of our late relatives. May goodness come insha’Allah and evil be gone. May we have the strength of Iman. May we have Barakah. May all kinds of goodness happen. May evil be gone. May disasters be away insha’Allah. May we have strong Iman. Li-Llahi Ta’ala l-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm: ‘قُلِ الرُّوحُ مِنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّي’, ‘Quli r-Rūĥu Min ‘Amri Rabbī’, ‘The soul is by command of my Lord.’ (Qur’ān 17:85). The soul is a secret among the secrets of Allah ﷻ, says Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan. What is a soul? Only Allah ﷻ knows what it is.

Allah ﷻ created souls and everyone has a soul. The soul is for living creatures and people. No need to look into how it is. However, its duty in this world is when Allah ﷻ blows it into the body of a person while in the mother’s womb after 40 days, it stays with him until he dies. And then this soul is captured. Azra’il ‘alayhi s-salam takes it. Based on the deeds everyone did: if they belong to hell, all souls wait in hell until their owners come. If they belong to paradise, the souls wander in paradise. It is like this.

There are silly people now who want to interfere in everything they know and don’t know. Also, there is a group who says that the soul leaves a person and enters another one. They call it reincarnation or something strange. There is not such a thing. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is not in need to place them from one to another.

When the soul comes back on Judgment Day, it remains in the body forever either in paradise or in hell. Therefore, saying: “It will leave you and enter an ant. It will leave the ant and enter a rabbit. And it will enter a human after the rabbit” and so on, there is not such a thing. It is impossible logically as well. There are billions of people. If it was so, that wouldn’t be enough.

The soul is a secret among the secrets of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. As we said, when Allah ﷻ created us and gave us a soul, its duty lasts forever. It will leave us for some time after we die. And after the resurrection, the same soul will be given back and will stay in the same body. It will be brought back to life from earth. It will be questioned. And then they will be together forever.

May Allah ﷻ make our souls from those of paradise, because the soul will be questioned equally for the badness people do. And it will be punished. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ protect us and not separate us from Iman.

People nowadays think these things are simple. They say things as they like, “No, I accept this. I don’t accept that. I want this. I don’t want that”. This is not up to your pleasure. It is the order of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. He ﷻ does as He ﷻ likes. And He ﷻ doesn’t do what He ﷻ doesn’t like.

Yet, they say our souls enter animals and so on. Apart from that, even animals don’t like what people nowadays do. And they are so happy with their condition, they say “Fortunately, Allah ﷻ didn’t create us as humans and we didn’t go on these silly ways.” Even they are are happy with their states. May Allah ﷻ give guidance to people insha’Allah. And may He ﷻ give us strong Iman.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
حَتَّىٰ أَتَانَا الْيَقِينُ (47) فَمَا تَنفَعُهُمْ شَفَاعَةُ الشَّافِعِينَ
(Qur’ān 74:47-48). ‘Ĥattá ‘Atānā Al-Yaqīn (47) Famā Tanfa`uhum Shafā`atu Ash-Shāfi`īn’, ‘Until there came to us (the death) that is certain.” (47) So there will not benefit them the intercession of [any] intercessors.’ When a person realizes that his Iman is true, that is when death comes. Death is the most true thing. Apart from people who have Iman, the rest are in doubt or denial in this world.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan, “Those who have gone to hell – ‘Why did you go to hell?’ ‘We didn’t pray. We didn’t believe. We used to speak bad words. And we used to fight with believers over Allah ﷻ. We used to talk nonsense. Up until the truth came’.”

The most true thing is death. When death comes, all truth is revealed. People who have Iman before that are in profit then. The rest are in doubt and this and that, and say according to their minds: “I don’t believe in this and that. What kind of thing is this? Is it alright? It is not alright.” They spend all their lives like that. They think big of themselves. They think they are clever up until the truth, death, which is most true comes.

When death comes, there is no benefit for them then. You must see the truth before dying. When death comes, it has no benefit. Nothing brings any benefit to you then unless you have Iman. If you don’t believe in Allah ﷻ, it means your life is ruined. The true life is there. It is not this life. They say their life is ruined here, but the true life which is eternal, the life of Akhirah is ruined and you are gone.

You must see the truth before dying. You must accept the truth before dying. After you die, it has no benefit. There is no benefit at all, because all the advice and beautiful words haven’t affected you throughout your life. You said they are lies and there is not such a thing. You have rambled around throughout your life and spoke badly to those who said that to you. You didn’t accept Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. You didn’t make Shukr for the favors He ﷻ gave you. And then you say, “The truth has come. I accept it now”. It has no benefit then. It has no benefit to you at all.

Therefore, what is beneficial O people is to see the truth before dying. Sayyidina Abu Bakr says, “مُوتُوا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَمُوتُوا”, “Mootu Qabla an Tamootu”, “Die before you die.” See the truth, as there is only one truth. The most true thing is death. Therefore, he says to die before you die so that your Iman is strong. May Allah ﷻ give us all true Iman. May Allah ﷻ protect our Iman insha’Allah. May the truth be with us here and may it be with us when we die. May the truth be with us in Akhirah insha’Allah. May we be with the truth insha’Allah.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

May Allah ﷻ give a good life to people in this world. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla has allotted life, food, drink and everything to everyone. Certainly, all of them reach everyone.

We had a conversation the other day. It was not about what they wore, ate and drank during the time of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, but they asked more about what they wore in their feet while walking. Some people wore shoes and sandals, and some people didn’t have anything. They walked barefoot.

Doctors nowadays say that walking barefoot is beneficial. Back then, sometimes it was beneficial and sometimes it was not, because sometimes there were glass and dirt on the ground. Wearing shoes is better, of course. But back then, by the wisdom of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla poverty was at its peak in old times.

People of the present time cry and whine. But back then, they did not have not only bread but shoes. There were no slippers to put on their feet. However, there was some beauty in that time. Of course, there was the presence of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. Apart from being with him ﷺ, everyone had a house to live in. Some people had a bigger one and some people had a smaller one. There were very small houses as well like cabins or tents. By the wisdom of Allah ﷻ, they had that. Otherwise, the Sahabah and holy ones couldn’t find money to get food. They were hungry for days. If they had to pay rent, then it would completely..

Therefore, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla appointed everything and gave every person what they need. People of the present time should not say they get this but cannot get that. They must make Shukr for what they get. That is enough with the permission of Allah ﷻ.

Millions and billions of people had lived and gone. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla gave them their Rizq and housing, everything. There was hardship too. Certainly, as it is Dunya, it cannot be without hardship. There must be hardship in Dunya. Sometimes it is in food, sometimes in housing, sometimes in this or that. People must live by and make Shukr. The biggest Shukr is for being on the way of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. If you are praying, the biggest Shukr is for that. If you are fasting, you must make Shukr for that as well, for Allah ﷻ has granted these things to us and we are doing them. There are millions and billions of people who don’t know what they are living for. There are people who always strive to do something just in order to live by. They are unfortunate.

May Allah ﷻ give us all a house to live in. Recently, especially this year, a lot of people have become victims. Both tenants and landlords have hardship as something happened by the wisdom of Allah ﷻ. Therefore, may Allah ﷻ help us all. May He ﷻ give good life and good sustenance to the poor ones and all people insha’Allah. 

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ كُلُوا مِمَّا فِي الْأَرْضِ حَلَالًا طَيِّبًا وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا خُطُوَاتِ الشَّيْطَانِ ۚ إِنَّهُ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِينٌ
(Qur’ān 02:168). ‘Yā ‘Ayyuhā An-Nāsu Kulū Mimmā Fī Al-‘Arđi Ĥalālāan Ţayyibāan Wa Lā Tattabi`ū Khuţuwāti Ash-Shayţāni ۚ ‘Innahu Lakum `Adūwun Mubīn’, ‘O mankind, eat from whatever is on earth [that is] permissible and good and do not follow the footsteps of Satan. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy.’ Sadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says to eat from good clean things. Eat good clean things and do not go after shaytan. He is your biggest enemy. But unfortunately, people are doing the opposite. Whatever bad and dirty thing there is, they long for that and eat that. And they are running after shaytan. Whatever shaytan is ordering, they are doing that.

In the end of times we are living in, everyone is running after shaytan as if doing so, as if running after shaytan is a skill. They do it blindly. Even though they know he is leading them to hell, they don’t care. The only thing they want to do in Dunya is doing whatever is bad, whatever is prohibited by Allah ﷻ. They think it brings them benefit. “If we do it, we will be content and we will be happy”. It is completely the opposite. The more sins you commit, the wilder your ego goes, the more it asks.

There was a disease in old times. I don’t know if it exists now. They called it Istiska (dropsy/edema), thirstiness. No matter how much they drank, they never felt full. They wanted more water. Or if they drink seawater, it is the same. It doesn’t remove their thirst. The more sins you commit, by the wisdom of Allah ﷻ, the more your ego goes wild and asks for more.

A person who commits all kinds of sins, a person who says, “Let me do it and feel content” cheats himself. Shaytan has cheated him. The things he does increase his thirst and appetite and aggravate all kinds of evil. They increase the fire. What they must do is extinguish that fire with goodness, charity and repentance. Repentance leads to the forgiveness of sins. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla forgives the sins of those who repent and ask for forgiveness. He ﷻ forgives all their sins.

Do not say, “Let me do it now and I will ask for forgiveness later”. Ask for it immediately. They say cutting harm from anywhere is a profit. Similarly, people must repent for the sins and things they do and avoid doing it with the intention of not returning to it anymore. Say, “I repent and quit these things for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ” and certainly, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will help you. He ﷻ will protect you from that evil.

May Allah ﷻ help us all. May He ﷻ give guidance to people. May He ﷻ give strong Iman to all of us so that we are at ease. People are at ease in both Dunya and Akhirah then. They reach happiness.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is saying the most evil and worst people are those who buy their Akhirah with Dunya. They live by as ‘Alims (scholars). They mislead people out of the way for their personal benefit and get profit from them. They are the worst people.

Certainly, this is one of the tricks of the enemies of Islam. Because when they attacked Muslims directly, most of them couldn’t gain anything. They want to remove Islam. Therefore, such traitors, people who sell their Akhirah for Dunya have appeared from the inside. They came together and misled people. Many people went astray because of them. Therefore, he ﷺ says that they are the most evil.

The same is mentioned in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan. The ending of those who buy their Akhirah with Dunya is suffering and hell. But unfortunately, they are studying and know everything. And then they sell it for their personal benefit. It means there is no benefit in what they study. It doesn’t strengthen their Iman, because they didn’t train their egos. And the ego is playing with them as it likes.

After the Ottomans, such characters became more. Certainly, they were there before too. The enemies of Islam don’t sleep anywhere and make Fitnah and corruption. As the proverb says, water sleeps [is still] but the enemies don’t. They always want to do everything they can in order to destroy Islam. However, the end of those who are with them will be loss too.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will spread His ﷻ religion, the religion of Haqq all over the world with the permission of Allah ﷻ. We are living in the end of times now. There are all kinds of evil, sins and things that don’t suit people. But people think they have won and Islam won’t be able to recover. With the permission of Allah ﷻ, Allah ﷻ does as He ﷻ wants.

Certainly, His ﷻ promise is true. There is a promise that whole world will become Muslim. Its time is coming insha’Allah. He ﷻ will do the cleansing with Mahdi ‘alayhi s-salam, because it is dirty. This world is dirty both as hidden and apparently. Islam is what will clean it. Insha’Allah may he come soon. We wait for him insha’Allah. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says not to lose hope – ‘لَا تَقْنَطُوا’, ‘Lā taqnatū’, ‘Do not despair’. (Qur’ān 39:53). Hopelessness is not good. Hopelessness comes from the lack of Iman. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ give us the strength of Iman.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُكُمْ أَن تُؤَدُّوا الْأَمَانَاتِ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهَا وَإِذَا حَكَمْتُم بَيْنَ النَّاسِ أَن تَحْكُمُوا بِالْعَدْلِ

(Qur’ān 04:58). ‘Inna Allāha Ya’murukum ‘An Tu’uaddū Al-‘Amānāti ‘Ilá ‘Ahlihā Wa ‘Idhā Ĥakamtum Bayna An-Nāsi ‘An Taĥkumū Bil-`Adl’, ‘Indeed, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due and when you judge between people to judge with justice.’ Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.

The main thing in every job is to be competent. People are not accountable when they are babies or children. But as they grow up, responsibility is put on people’s shoulders. There are things they must do. They must always improve themselves. They must advance further.

Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says if two days of a believer are alike, he is at loss. He must always be better. He must be good in worship and in all kinds of things. He must do justice to the trust given by Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla brought it to this world for you. So you must follow His ﷻ way and guard His ﷻ trust.

Each job is like this. As we are living in the end of times, the trust is in the hands of incompetent people. They have ruined everything, because people have chosen what is easy for their egos. They choose not the difficult way to make themselves better but the easy way. They don’t pray, they don’t fast, they don’t do anything. “We get tired of praying”. But when it comes to horrible places, they run there. They don’t pray. They don’t fast as it is difficult for them. If you talk about Zakat, they say “It is unnecessary. Why would I give it?” Their egos don’t want.

Therefore, as people don’t do justice to these trusts, Allah ﷻ gave them people like themselves. Everywhere is full of incompetent people. If there is work to be done, everywhere is full of incompetent people who don’t do their job properly. It is difficult to find competent people. It is difficult to find reliable people.

This is something disliked by Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla created people for them to be competent. He ﷻ gave them opportunities. If they don’t obey their egos, they can do it. But as they obey their egos, they cannot do it. They don’t want to tire themselves. They are fond of their comfort. They are fond of their pleasure and enjoyment. They don’t think about anything else. “How should I satisfy myself? How should I make myself happy?” Everything is about them, whereas when they are competent, they bring benefit to others as well.

It is said, ‘There are many people but no one who does the job.’ This is something Allah ﷻ doesn’t like. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam love the person who works and who knows himself. And Tariqahs are for educating people, for teaching all kinds of competence to do a good job. It is for following the way of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. Therefore, shaytan doesn’t like them. Their work makes him angry.

Without Tariqah, people follow their egos and don’t do otherwise. A person who doesn’t follow the way of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is not a competent person. If the whole world belongs to him, he will ruin it completely. May Allah ﷻ protect us all. May Allah ﷻ let us come across competent people insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ protect us from people who don’t know themselves and who don’t know their job.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

There are recited Qur’an Khatms. There are many Khatms recited by our brothers from all over the world, Shukr to Allah ﷻ. Yasin, Tabarakah, Surahs, Ayat, Tasbihat, Salawat; we gift everything recited firstly to our Holy Prophet ﷺ, his Ahlu l-Bayt and Sahabah, the souls of all Anbiya, Asfiya and Mashayikh, souls of our late relatives. With the intention for goodness to come and evil to be gone, with the intention of attaining strength of Iman.

Li-Llahi Ta’ala l-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says:

فَلْيَقُلْ خَيْراً أَوْ لِيَصْمُتْ

“Speak good or remain silent.” Always speak good things, because all the words you say are written down. Whatever you do, it is written down. There are angels on the left and on the right. The one on the right writes good deeds and the one on the left writes bad deeds and sins.

Therefore, don’t think you came to this world for nothing. Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

‘أَفَحَسِبْتُمْ أَنَّمَا خَلَقْنَاكُمْ عَبَثًا وَأَنَّكُمْ إِلَيْنَا لَا تُرْجَعُونَ’,

‘Afaĥasibtum ‘Annamā Khalaqnākum `Abathāan Wa ‘Annakum ‘Ilaynā Lā Turja`ūn’, ‘Then did you think that We created you uselessly and that to Us you would not be returned?’ (Qur’ān 23:115). Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, “We didn’t create you for nothing”. Certainly, everything you do will confront you one by one on Judgment Day.

Therefore, always do good things and speak good things. If you speak bad things, repent and ask for forgiveness for that so that they don’t confront you. Let the good deeds confront you so that you attain goodness. No harm comes from goodness. Harm always comes from badness, from bad things. Things that have no benefit to people but harm are from shaytan. In order to mislead people from the way, shaytan went against Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and said this.

Therefore, don’t make shaytan happy. The more you do bad things or speak badly, the happier shaytan is. No need to make shaytan happy. Making him happy will upset you later. It will come up as evil for you. It will come up as punishment. You will see its harm both here and hereafter. May Allah ﷻ protect us.

This time we are living in is the end of times. If you tell everything you hear, that is the proof that a man is an idiot. Sayyidina ‘Ali says this. A sign of the idiocy of someone is when he believes everything he hears, accepts it as truth and tells others. We have to be careful. There are many liars, there are many slanderers. If you go along with them, you will commit a sin and will bring trouble on yourself for no reason. May Allah ﷻ protect us.

It is the world of lies. With or without personal interest, people say things and slander others. Slander is a big sin. Who does it will get his punishment unless he repents and asks for forgiveness. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ keep all of us away from lies and slander insha’Allah.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

BismiLlahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim:

وَلَقَدْ أَضَلَّ مِنكُمْ جِبِلًّا كَثِيرًا ۖ أَفَلَمْ تَكُونُوا تَعْقِلُونَ

(Qur’ān 36:62). ‘Wa Laqad ‘Ađalla Minkum Jibillāan Kathīrāan ۖ ‘Afalam Takūnū Ta`qilūn’, ‘And he (satan) had already led astray from among you much of creation, so did you not understand?’ Sadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.

“Shaytan has cheated a lot of people. Where is your mind? How are you even thinking?” says Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan. When there is no mind, everyone does something as they like. And then they don’t accept others saying, “That is the right thing.” They accept only what they do as right.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla gave mind to people. While so many people, scholars, ‘Ulama, the most intelligent people have been going on the right way since the time of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam until the present time, a Firqa (group) appears in the end, of course after the Ottomans, and tells people “You are not on the right way. All of you are Mushrik, you are this and that.” They confuse people and make Waswasa. This is the direct work of shaytan, work of people who are captivated by shaytan. We must be careful. If you think you are doing right, you are actually destroying yourself. You are going astray from the way and falling into heresy.

There are many things. Men have a long beard, wear robes and have uncovered heads. Blessed Mawlana Shaykh Nazim used to call them squash heads. Whereas covering your head is Sunnah. Wearing a turban is even more virtuous. But an uncovered head is not good. That doesn’t comply with either Sunnah, or Mustahabb, or Wajib. It doesn’t comply with anything. Also, they open their legs wide while standing [in prayer] as if they are relieving nature, ḥāshā mina l-ḥuḍūr. They open their legs wide. Whereas opening them so widely is neither from Sunnah nor anything. We don’t know where they took it from.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is showing that they are not on the right way through such things, even to themselves. Shukr to Allah ﷻ, Ahlu s-Sunnah wa l-Jama’ah and people of Tariqah are going step by step following all the steps of our Holy Prophet ﷺ insha’Allah. We are doing as much as we can. And may Allah ﷻ forgive us for things we cannot do. We cannot do everything. But we don’t accept things that are Bid’ah.

Many people do this without realizing it. Shukr to Allah ﷻ, we don’t have it much in Turkey. But it is widespread outside in non-Muslim countries, because it is unclear who is a scholar and who is an oppressor there. They say they are Muslim and do what they do. They open their legs wide in a bad posture, ḥāshā mina l-ḥuḍūr. Their heads are uncovered, with beards but without moustaches.

There is a lot of such things which are not in the religion. They are practicing them as if they are in the religion. That is what means Bid’ah. They are Bid’ah. They say to Muslims that they make Bid’ah, whereas they make Bid’ah themselves. “If you make Salawat, it is Bid’ah. If you visit a tomb and recite there, it is Bid’ah”. Whereas all of these are Sunnah in fact. But they are showing them as bad to you. And they are showing you bad things as good. May Allah ﷻ protect us.

Muslims must be cautious about these things. We must warn people who do this unknowingly to be cautious. Showing things that are not in the religion as if they are in the religion is a wrongdoing. Doing them knowingly is a sin and doing them unknowingly is a wrongdoing. May Allah ﷻ protect us from these people and the evil of shaytan. May Allah ﷻ protect us from the evil of this Fitnah insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

There are recited Qur’an Khatms, Dalail Al-Khayrat, Salawat, Tahlilat, Takbirat and Tasbihat. In particular, one of our brothers read ten Khatms yesterday. We gift all of them to the soul of his Shaykh Abdul Baki Efendi, and especially to the soul of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, his Ahlu l-Bayt and Sahabah, the souls of all Anbiya, Awliya, Asfiya and Mashayikh, the soul of our Shaykh Mawlana Shaykh Nazim, the souls of our late relatives, souls of all Muslims and Mu’mins. With the intention of goodness to come and evil to be gone, for the strength of our Iman insha’Allah, with the intention to be on the right way, on the way of Haqq. Li-Llahi Ta’ala l-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Madad ya RasuluLlah ﷺ. Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says when Allah ﷻ wants to make someone do something, He ﷻ takes his mind. The person does it and when he comes back to his senses, he wonders how he did these things. All kinds of things both worldly things and things of Akhirah are like this.

There are some things that people get surprised at how they did them. That is by the will of Allah ﷻ. That thing happens and when people come back to their senses they regret doing it, of course. They wonder how they did it. However, that is the will of Allah ﷻ. Nevertheless, people who regret doing something when they do something bad, if they repent and revert from it, they will earn rewards and Thawab. If not, if they say, “I did right even though I did it without knowing. I did right as I don’t make mistakes”, they will get their punishment.

This is certainly the wisdom of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, something that Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla knows. Everything has a wisdom in it. The mind cannot access the wisdom of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. The mind cannot reach it. Do not ask why. Submit yourself.

As our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says “Even I recite AstaghfiruLlah, Tawbah AstaghfiruLlah 70 times a day.” Our Holy Prophet ﷺ doesn’t have any sins. As we have recited in Surat Al-Fath a while ago, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, “We have forgiven your past and future sins”. Even though our Holy Prophet ﷺ didn’t have sins, he ﷺ recited it. So we have to make Istighfar all the time, because we always make mistakes, do wrong and sin being aware or unaware of it. And as we do it, we repent. We regret it. So it is cleaned and gone then. Repentance and forgiveness clean and remove it.

People should not be stubborn. They should not be arrogant. They must bow down to Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. They must be in disgrace in front of Allah ﷻ. People who are in disgrace in front of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla are honored. People who are in disgrace in front of people have no use. Disgrace is in front of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. In front of the Greatness and Magnificence of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla we are disgraced, minor, sinful people. People must say so and always ask for forgiveness. They will attain the pleasure of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla then.

Allah ﷻ doesn’t like arrogance. He ﷻ likes being begged and asked for forgiveness. He ﷻ grants it and He ﷻ changes the committed sins to Thawab. The sins you committed turn into benefit when repent. This is the Greatness and Magnificence of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. It is His ﷻ Mercy to people. Even if they do something unknowingly but then repent and ask for forgiveness, that badness turns into goodness and beauty.

May Allah ﷻ protect us from doing things knowingly and unknowingly. And may He ﷻ forgive us insha’Allah. May He ﷻ not let us get rid of this beautiful character. Allah ﷻ loves At-Tawwabeen, those who seek repentance and ask forgiveness. May He ﷻ make all of us from those beloved servants insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

BismiLlahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim:

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَكُونُوا مَعَ الصَّادِقِينَ

(Qur’ān 09:119). ‘Yā ‘Ayyuhā l-Ladhīna ‘Āmanū t-Taqū l-Llaha Wa Kūnū Ma’a s-Sādiqīn’, ‘O you who have believed, fear Allah and be with the truthful.’ Sadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says to believers, “Be with the truthful and righteous ones”. Fear Allah ﷻ and be with them. Stay away from bad people. Stay away from those who are not on the way of Allah ﷻ, because the heaviness and darkness that comes upon them will come to you. There is always darkness on people who are not on the way of Allah ﷻ. That darkness just takes away the light. The darkness that we mean occurs in daylight too. Even though there is light during the day, people have darkness upon them. Only the light of Iman in Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla can remove that darkness.

Those who speak badly about Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and show lack of Adab towards Islam and Muslims have darkness upon them. It is not good to approach them. It is possible for the purpose of work, or when they ask for advice. Otherwise, if they mock you and talk nonsense, stay away from them.

Be together with the good ones. “يَدُ اللَّهِ مَعَ الْجَمَاعَةِ”, Allah’s ﷻ Hand of Power is upon the Jama’ah and the community [Hadith]. This is also important. Believers must be together with believers. They should consult and help each other. That brings more Barakah to believers and Muslims.

Nowadays, rebellion against Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and rebellion against all kinds of goodness are shown as if it is a skill. That is not a skill but only harm. So our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says, “الْمُؤْمِنُ لِلْمُؤْمِنِ كَالْبُنْيَانِ الْمَرْصُوصِ”, “The believer to another believer is like [the bricks of] a firm building.” Sadaqa RasūluLlāh fi-ma Qal aw kama Qal (The Messenger of Allah has said the truth in what he said or as he said.) Believers support other believers. They are like solid walls of a castle. When alone, perhaps, there are things they don’t know. When they are together with those who don’t believe in Allah ﷻ, who don’t do what Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla orders and who go against Him ﷻ, they may get harmed by them when they’re on their own.

Therefore, stay away from them and be together with those who have Iman. “كُونُوا مَعَ الصَّادِقِينَ”, “Kūnū Ma’a s-Sādiqīn”, “Be with the truthful.” (Qur’ān 09:119). This is an order. Be together with the truthful and righteous ones. May Allah ﷻ make us all be with them. May Allah ﷻ give guidance to the bad ones insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

During the time of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam making Hijra from Mecca to Madinah was Fard or as Wajib to all Muslims. Making Hijra to Madinah and leaving Mecca was the order of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla to our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. After it was conquered, there was no more Hijra. It was no more Fard.

When people have the necessity – necessity comes more from the inability to practice religion in some area – they can emigrate somewhere they can practice it. Certainly, people in the present time leave their countries and emigrate to other places not for this but for livelihood, to live in more comfort, to earn more money. However, this Hijra is not for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. It is for personal interest.

For Muslims, what’s important is the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla gives Rizq everywhere. You can find your Rizq everywhere. Wherever Allah ﷻ has written it, you will find it there. However, you must make Hijra not for Dunya but for Akhirah.

People of the present time don’t think about it. What they think about is worldly things. Wherever they go, as soon as they have some shortage, they say, “I will go there and earn more money. I will have more comfort there”. Many people think like that. This is not a good thought. It is not a good thing because it’s rather a land of Kufr where they emigrate. They are places that make you forget Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, places of freedom which encourage you to go against Him ﷻ and to do all kinds of shame. It is done here and everywhere as well. But it is done without much encouragement.

Therefore, people, Muslims should have Iman in their hearts, Iman that Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is Ar-Razzaq. May Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla give our Rizq in good places. May He ﷻ give it in places where our Iman will not be harmed. We have to put this in our minds.

There is advertising, propaganda, this and that all the time. They take away lands and homelands of people and deliver them to some places in full misery. And then Iman is lost. May Allah ﷻ protect us.

In old times, we know that Europeans used to capture and bring slaves from Africa, from here and there. They were bringing them by force. Until they reached the land, more than half of them died on the way. And the rest was tortured leaving very few alive. They were taking slaves by force. We are looking now, people are willing to become slaves and are running to it. They perish in seas and here and there. Why? For Dunya [which is worth] of two pennies.

May Allah ﷻ give mind and understanding to people. May He ﷻ send the Sahib to Muslims, to all people so that they reach comfort. They will not reach comfort otherwise. Wherever you go, even if you walk up to moon, you will not reach comfort when you are against Allah ﷻ. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May He ﷻ give strength to our Iman insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

‘وَعَسَىٰ أَن تَكْرَهُوا شَيْئًا وَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ’,

‘Wa `Asá ‘An Takrahū Shay’āan Wa Huwa Khayrun Lakum’,

‘But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you.’ (Qur’ān 02:216). Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm. There is goodness in everything that happens, says Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan. Sometimes things you don’t like happen. There is goodness in them. Without realizing it – you don’t like them, but that is something for your goodness.

So when something happens, even though it seems like a mishap, Allah ﷻ does it as goodness insha’Allah. Therefore, to live with submission that ‘Allah ﷻ wants this’, without objecting is good for all humanity. You should rely on Allah ﷻ and not question why it happened or why it did not happen. You must do what you can and submit to Allah ﷻ.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla does whatever He ﷻ wants with you. What you want will not happen. What Allah ﷻ wants happens. “Insha’Allah” means what Allah ﷻ wants will happen. Therefore, you must look at things knowing there is goodness in everything that happens. When it’s like that, people are at rest. They say, “This is what Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, my Lord wants” and feel content. They don’t worry. It has happened after all.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is showing beautiful things to all humanity. But people ignore them or don’t care at all. They wish if it was so and so on their own and get angry. Therefore, we must be pleased with something that happened as believers. We must be pleased with everything that happens. We must say it is a test from our Lord and believe it is something that has goodness for us. There is goodness in everything that happens. May Allah ﷻ make everything turn out well insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

وَتُعِزُّ مَن تَشَاءُ وَتُذِلُّ مَن تَشَاءُ ۖ بِيَدِكَ الْخَيْرُ ۖ إِنَّكَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

(Qur’ān 03:26). ‘Wa Tu`izzu Man Tashā’u Wa Tudhillu Man Tashā’u ۖ Biyadika Al-Khayru ۖ ‘Innaka `Alá Kulli Shay’in Qadīr’, ‘You honor whom You will and You humiliate whom You will. In Your hand is [all] good. Indeed, You are over all things competent.’

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla makes honorable whomever He ﷻ wants and disgraceful whomever He ﷻ wants. Everything is in the Hand of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. May He ﷻ make us together with those whom He ﷻ made honorable insha’Allah. Everything is in His ﷻ Hand of Power. The greatest happiness is to be with Him ﷻ.

To be honorable means to have dignity, to be honorable in Akhirah, to have dignity and honor in the presence of Allah ﷻ. There is no dignity in this world. The dignity of this world is temporary. Dignity given by Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is everlasting. It is eternal, Shukr to Allah ﷻ. We are saying this again. Those who are forever with Allah ﷻ win. Whatever Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says happens. Everything is in His ﷻ Hand. May we be with His ﷻ beloved servants. No need to be with servants who are not loved.

When our hearts are with good ones, we win. This is the matter of the heart. And Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla puts it in your heart. No one can interfere with whatever is put in your heart. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla puts it. He ﷻ put the love of holy ones, the beautiful beloved servants of Allah ﷻ into the hearts of some people. He ﷻ have put their love into our hearts insha’Allah. To some, He ﷻ put the love and affection of useless people in their hearts. They must be happy. They must be happy both here and hereafter. Who win are those who are with Allah ﷻ.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, “Have fun and get entertained in this world”. The things in this world are for Akhirah. Therefore, people who are together with the good ones, with the beloved servants of Allah ﷻ will be happy. Their hearts are in comfort. People who live for Dunya and run after Dunya have darkness, sorrow and all kinds of hardship in their hearts. Therefore, be together with the good ones. May we follow their way insha’Allah.

Today is the Mawlid of our beautiful Pir Sayyidina Shah Naqshband. May it be blessed. How lucky are we to be on his way, on the way of such beautiful people. Shukr to Allah ﷻ. We must make Shukr so that his love in our hearts grows more. May his Maqam be high. May his Himmah (support) be with us. Millions and hundred millions of people are going on his way Shukr to Allah ﷻ. They are going on the way of these beautiful people. How lucky are they! How lucky are we insha’Allah! May Allah ﷻ make it perpetual forever insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

May his Maqam be high. Al-Fatiha.

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

قُل لَّا أَسْأَلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ أَجْرًا إِلَّا الْمَوَدَّةَ فِي الْقُرْبَىٰ

(Qur’ān 42:23). ‘Qul Lā ‘As’alukum `Alayhi ‘Ajrāan ‘Illā Al-Mawaddata Fī Al-Qurbá’, ‘Say, [O Muhammad], “I do not ask you for this message any payment [but] only good will through kinship”.’

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, in our Holy Prophet’s ﷺ tongue, in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan, “I am not asking for a reward from you. Just love my Ahlu l-Bayt”. The Ahlu l-Bayt of our Holy Prophet ﷺ are those who come from the lineage of the Prophet ﷺ. May Allah ﷻ increase their Maqam. May their Barakah be perpetual insha’Allah.

Sometimes they were appreciated, and sometimes they were harmed. Those who harmed them did not attain anything. The love and pleasure of our Holy Prophet ﷺ are the foundation of our religion. The love of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam and doing what he ﷺ says are the base of religion. Going on his ﷺ way and following him ﷺ is the duty of every Muslim. Honoring him ﷺ is our duty. The greatest thing we can do is to honor him ﷺ, to follow his ﷺ way, to love those beloved by him ﷺ and to dislike those disliked by him ﷺ.

People have become strange these days. People who call themselves Muslim don’t respect our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. They don’t honor him ﷺ. And they prevent those who do so. They say, “You are making Shirk and Kufr”. If you don’t love the Habib of Allah ﷻ who shows us the way, our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam who is the most beloved of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and most honored person, how are you going to win? You cannot win anything with your own deeds.

Shaytan enters people’s minds from this way. He wants to take the Barakah and love of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam away from people. Because when there is no love, there is no Iman. And when there is no Iman, there is no Islam. Therefore, we must respect our Holy Prophet ﷺ, his ﷺ Ahlu l-Bayt, his ﷺ Sahabah and his ﷺ beloved ones, all of them. We must love them, as we will save ourselves in Akhirah with this love. This is the most important thing. This is the way of salvation for people.

They say there are many Muslims now. As long as there is no Iman, there is no benefit in the abundance of Muslims. And Iman increases with the love of our Holy Prophet ﷺ insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ give this love to our hearts. May his ﷺ love and respect be everlasting, because following his ﷺ way is the best thing in this world for people. Other things don’t bring benefit.

May Allah ﷻ make them perpetual for us insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ give guidance to others, those who went astray. May Allah ﷻ give mind and understanding to those who don’t honor our Holy Prophet ﷺ. May Allah ﷻ give guidance to all of them.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

إِنَّمَا أَمْوَالُكُمْ وَأَوْلَادُكُمْ فِتْنَةٌ

(Qur’ān 64:15). ‘Innamā amwālukum wa awlādukum fitnah’, ‘Your wealth and your children are but a trial.’ Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says your wealth, children and family are your test. The test sometimes brings hardship and sometimes goodness. When raising (children), you should raise them on the way loved by Allah ﷻ, on the way that Allah ﷻ wants. You should teach children patience. You should teach them to do goodness. It is your duty to teach them how to help people in different ways according to Adab. If you do this duty, it will be good for both you and them.

We are living in the end of times. As our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam said, “أَنْ تَلِدَ الأَمَةُ رَبَّتَهَا”, “An Talida l-‘Amatu Rabbataha”, “That the slave woman gives birth to her mistress.” The sign of the end of times is that a slave gives birth to his owner. People have become like slaves. Whatever children say, they do it. They fulfill their wishes. And their wishes are never-ending. The more they are given, the more they ask. Whereas it is not good to give a lot of everything. They must show little effort too. They must control their egos. When you do goodness, you cause hardship to them. When they face hardship, they won’t know what to do. They will either go astray, or do bad things.

Some people think they are doing goodness, whereas they do badness. As it is said in Qasidah Burda, the ego is like a child. If you breastfeed him, he can do it until he is 5-6 or even 10 years old. But you must wean him off breastfeeding from his mother. When you give everything to people but then cut it later, they start rebelling.

We live exactly in the time described by our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. People have become slaves to their children. Children are the ones who must serve their parents. But people of the present time do the opposite. Therefore, children don’t know what is right and what is wrong. They don’t know what is good and what is bad. They only want, “Serve me. Give me. Look after me”.

This is as such everywhere because it has become the same all over the world. The Aadab and principles of Islam are enough for everything. The best is when it is done with its instructions. The instructions given by Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla are in Islam. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla teaches us how to live and how to discipline children. If you do it according to your mind, the way Kafirs teach it, it will be absolutely useless. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ give us all discipline to our egos insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِاللَّهِ وَرُسُلِهِ أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الصِّدِّيقُونَ ۖ وَالشُّهَدَاءُ عِندَ رَبِّهِمْ لَهُمْ أَجْرُهُمْ وَنُورُهُمْ

(Qur’ān 57:19). ‘Wa l-Ladhīna ‘Āmanū Bi-Llāhi Wa Rusulihi, ‘Ūlā’ika Humu s-Siddīqūna Wa sh-Shuhadā’u ‘Inda Rabbihim Lahum ‘Ajruhum Wa Nūruhum’, ‘And those who have believed in Allah and His messengers – those are [in the ranks of] the supporters of truth and the martyrs, with their Lord. For them is their reward and their light.’ Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says people who believe in Prophets are the supporters of truth, they are called Siddiqun. That is the rank of Sayyidina Abu Bakr as-Siddiq. He believed and had faith in everything our Holy Prophet ﷺ said. Sayyidina Abu Bakr as-Siddiq was the companion of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. Believers will go after him and be on his rank.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says people who believe in all Prophets are accepted people in the presence of Allah ﷻ, and they are beloved servants of Allah ﷻ. What is the most important thing in people’s lives? Is it eating and drinking, or traveling around? You may do everything, but the most important thing is the love of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and being like Allah ﷻ wants.

Allah ﷻ did not create and imprison us. He ﷻ gave us all favors. Favors are created for the servants. All kinds of charity, goodness and beauty; Allah ﷻ created them for us. There is no problem to use them. As long as there is the pleasure of Allah ﷻ, you can do everything. But committing a sin doesn’t bring benefit to people, it brings loss. And Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla doesn’t need your worship or the things you do. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla made them for you as a test. If you beware of sins and use the favors He ﷻ gives, you will have benefit. Otherwise, you will have loss and all your life will be wasted.

May Allah ﷻ let us be together with the Siddiqun and the approved ones insha’Allah. May He ﷻ let us chase the most important things in these holy days insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ keep us away from evil and sins. May our days be blessed.

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اصْبِرُوا وَصَابِرُوا وَرَابِطُوا وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ

(Qur’ān 03:200). ‘Yā ayyuhā lladhīna amanū asbirū wa ṣābirū wa rābiṭū wa t-taqū Llāhu la’allakumu tuflihūn’, ‘O you who have believed, be patient and endure and remain stationed and fear Allah that you may be successful.’

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, “Be steadfast and patient, and you will be in gain.” Since the beginning, since ‘Adam ‘alayhi s-salam until now, what mankind must do is the order of Allah ﷻ. Be steadfast on the right way, on the way of Haqq/truth so that your end is good. Do not go astray. Do not let anyone mislead you from the way, says Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla.

Staying on this way requires patience. Most of the impatient people don’t have a good end, because they forget the order of Allah ﷻ, they forget Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. They think they will be in gain if they choose the easy way. They will not earn anything. No one will remain in this world eventually. Everyone coming goes away. Everyone born dies.

Therefore, be steadfast on the right way. This is the way of Prophets, the way of Awliya’ and Shaheeds, the way of Ahlu l-Bayt, the way of Sahabah. This way is a beautiful way, and those people are beautiful people. The Barakah of those people lasts forever. They say forever for useless people now. But may we not be together with those whom they say forever for. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May we be forever with those beautiful people.

Perhaps, you go after people who you think are better in this world. But it is not good to go after them in Akhirah. If you want to follow, the people who will lead you to eternal happiness are the patient people, people who are steadfast on the right way. May Allah ﷻ let us be together with them. Prophets, Awliya’, Sahabah, Ahlu l-Bayt, especially Sayyidina Hussain and Shaheeds who were with him were steadfast and reached the highest ranks. They were steadfast and their ranks are on the highest levels forever. Those who were impatient and went after Dunya are forgotten. Being together with them in Akhirah is a loss, the biggest loss.

May Allah ﷻ let us be with the good ones. May Allah ﷻ help us so that we don’t obey our egos, and we be steadfast and patient. May we be steadfast not with the tests of Allah ﷻ but with His ﷻ beneficence insha’Allah. We are not servants of tests. Their tests were big. They were patient and were raised. We don’t have that. And we don’t claim to have it. May Allah ﷻ help us. May we be steadfast insha’Allah, with His ﷻ beneficence insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

There are recited Qur’an Khatms, Ayat and Surahs, Tasbihat, Tahlilat and Salawat. Our brothers have recited them from all over the world. We gift them here today firstly to our Holy Prophet ﷺ, his ﷺ Ahlu l-Bayt and Sahabah, the souls of all Anbiya, Awliya’, Asfiya, especially the Shuhada’ of Karbala, Sayyidina Hussain and the Shaheeds who were with him, the souls of all our late relatives, the souls of Mashayikh, the souls of Mu’mins and Mu’minahs. For goodness to come and evil to be gone. With the intention to be neighbors with them on the Day of Judgement, with the intention of protection from all kinds of evil, sins and badness in this world, may it be the means for goodness. Li-Llahi Ta’ala l-Fatiha.

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying to our Holy Prophet ﷺ, when His ﷻ servant gets old in worship and obedience, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is shy to question his deeds. Because this servant has spent all his life until he is old in obedience to Allah ﷻ, even if he does wrong, Allah ﷻ forgives him. Therefore, the compassion of Allah ﷻ is great. The Magnificence of Allah ﷻ is great.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla wants to show compassion to people at every chance. His ﷻ Mercy is endless. “Come to the forgiveness and mercy of Allah ﷻ”, says Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, “Let Me change your sins into goodness and Thawab”. Even if they are as big as mountains, as long as you repent and ask for forgiveness, all of them will turn into Thawab for people.

People cannot comprehend the compassion of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. The compassion of people is until a certain point. But Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla has endless compassion. As long as they don’t make Shirk with Him ﷻ, as long as they don’t go against Him ﷻ, people should not have Waswasa and say “What will happen to me?” If you are on the way of Allah ﷻ, you must certainly know that you belong to paradise. “Will I go to hell?” No, you will not go with the permission of Allah ﷻ. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will forgive and pardon you.

Therefore, how lucky are those who are Muslim. This is the main matter: to accept Islam, to accept Allah ﷻ and to walk on this way. But shaytan wants to mislead people out of this way. He is trying all kinds of ways. He is giving all kinds of Waswasa to people just to mislead them from the way. The win for people is in being together with Allah ﷻ. Accepting Allah ﷻ and being on the way of Allah ﷻ is salvation for them. There is no other salvation.

Ever since the world was created, it has not happened the way people want it. And as we live in the end of times, it is even worse now. Wherever you look, there is not goodness but badness and hardship. For the people who are on the way of Allah ﷻ there is no hardship and badness with the permission of Allah ﷻ.

These are holy days. There is a lot of Thawab in them. With the permission of Allah ﷻ, there is fasting today and tomorrow insha’Allah. Who couldn’t fast today should fast tomorrow and the day after. Tomorrow is Ashura. There is Wazifah (Duties) to do on ‘Ashura. Let us repeat them once again. Make Ghusl (full-body ablution). Do grocery shopping for your home, and this year will be abundant and full of Barakah. Whoever applies kohl on his eyes will not have eye problems. Give Sadaqah, it will be accepted in the presence of Allah ﷻ. We will be accepted people insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ make it blessed for all of us.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

وَقُلِ اعْمَلُوا فَسَيَرَى اللَّهُ عَمَلَكُمْ

(Qur’ān 09:105). ‘Wa Quli Amalū Fasayará AllāhuAmalakum’, ‘And say, “Do [as you will], for Allah will see your deeds.”.’ Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm. Do in this world, for Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will certainly see what you do.

Throughout our lives, there are two angels, one on the right and another one on the left. The one on the right writes the good deeds. And that on the left writes down sins and evil deeds. On Judgment Day, all of them will be presented in front of people and shown to them. And people will be questioned for what they did.
This is the justice of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Good deeds will remain. The goodness of people will remain. Even though sins are written down, if people repent and ask for forgiveness, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will change sins into Thawab. They will be for the benefit of people.

We must know that people don’t live for no reason. People say, “No one is watching us. We can do anything we want. There is nothing to be accountable for. There is no accountability”, and throw about it. However, the promise of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is Haqq/true. Do whatever you are doing, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will see it.

Therefore, there is a chance while we are living in this world. In order for people to get rid of evil, in order to get rid of sins, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla has given the chance. We must repent and ask for forgiveness so that sins are erased. And for the goodness done, we are rewarded tenfold. On some days, it is even more. For example, the virtue of the month of Muharram is so great and on the Day of Ashura, the 9th and 10th [of Muharram] there is more Thawab. That is the grant of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla to people. There is a lot of grants to Mu’mins and believers.

Mankind believes in unbelievable people. Even though they don’t understand anything, or they understand that this way is led by shaytan, they follow these people. They don’t do what the true word of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says. This is absolute ignorance.

We are in holy days again. Insha’Allah tomorrow there is fasting on the 9th [of Muharram]. The 10th is Friday. We must on these two days consecutively. It cannot be on just one day, Fasting of ‘Ashura. It can be Friday and Saturday, or Thursday and Friday. We must make sure not to miss this chance. There is Thawab of several hundreds of Hajj and several hundreds of Umrah. This is the holy word of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. There is great Thawab for those who fast on these days such as five hundred Hajj and five hundred Umrah. Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says so.

This is something a person cannot do in his lifetime. And Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is granting this in just a day. Don’t ask how it works. The Generosity of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is unlimited. May Allah ﷻ always grant us to do these beautiful deeds. May these beautiful deeds bring light into our hearts. May He ﷻ protect us from evil insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

وَقُل رَّبِّ زِدْنِي عِلْمًا

(Qur’ān 20:114). ‘Wa Qul Rabbi Zidni ‘Ilman’, ‘And say, “My Lord, increase me in knowledge.”.’ Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan, “Say, May we be given knowledge.” It is also a Dua. The more knowledge you acquire insha’Allah, the more you are accepted in the presence of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. That is about good knowledge. There are various kinds of knowledge that we acquire. Knowledge that teaches about knowing Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is the one. It is the knowledge that raises people, exalts them and gives them benefit.

Knowledge has no end. Even though you say you’ve learnt a lot and know everything, that is wrong. As long as you are alive, you learn new things until your last breath. This knowledge has no end, because Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla enlightens people with knowledge and shows people the way.

Allah ﷻ gave mind to mankind and Jinns among other creatures. And He ﷻ made things Fard for them that they must do using their minds. Those without mind are not Mukallāf (responsible) for anything. Mukallāf are people and Jinns. They must perform worship and walk on the way of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla upon His ﷻ order. What they need while they walk is knowledge. It cannot be without knowledge.

When Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla created humans, as soon as the baby is born, he starts learning. That is knowledge too. Everything is knowledge for him. Slowly slowly, he learns either good things or bad things. Bad things are not knowledge but ignorance. Insha’Allah may we be taught true knowledge. May we be taught useful knowledge.

There are some people who have learnt in vain after studying for years and decades while thinking they learnt something. Whereas what they learnt is not useful but harmful. Therefore, we don’t want that. We don’t ask for ignorance, we ask for knowledge from Allah ﷻ. May Allah ﷻ teach us knowledge that brings light to our hearts insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

وَلَوْ أَعْجَبَكَ كَثْرَةُ الْخَبِيثِ

(Qur’ān 05:100). ‘Wa Law ‘A`jabaka Kathratu Al-Khabīthi’, ‘Even though the abundance of Al-Khabīth (evil) may amaze you.’ Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying Khabīth/malign thing is the worst thing. It is the name for something dirty. Don’t be amazed by their abundance. They are something that has no value.

The good ones are few. The majority is bad ones. Khabīth/malign things are the majority. Don’t be amazed by their abundance, says Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. They don’t have any value. And they don’t have any ruling. Even if the whole world was from them, they would not have any influence on those who believe in Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla.

We are living in the end of times now. They have become much more. In old times, people used to hold back from shame and sin. Nowadays, there are so many of them that people get confused if they are the right ones or we are the right ones. Especially youngsters; they say, “These people do whatever they want”. As much as they say they do whatever they want, they want to include you as well. They are not standing still. Therefore, be cautious about Khabīth/malign things. Do not admire them and do not show them as right.

The right ones are Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and Prophets. All their work and effort have been to stand up against these things, to stand up against this abundance of Khabīth/malignancy and to purify them. They have wanted to wash out the dirt and make them clean. But most of the time, they (malign ones) changed worlds together with their dirtiness. May Allah ﷻ protect people. May they distinguish the bad and dirty from the clean.

Do not think that if dirtiness is the majority it is right and clean. Do not think if they are many they are right, because when something bad enters them, people think it is good. They say, “It is widespread. Everyone is doing it, so I will do it too”. If you do it, you make a mistake and become like them. You join the bad community, the evil majority.

There are few jewels and a lot of dung. Therefore, be careful. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May we be together with the good ones insha’Allah.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

أَلَا بِذِكْرِ اللَّهِ تَطْمَئِنُّ الْقُلُوبُ

“A-lā bi-dhikri Llāhi taṭmainnu l-qulūb”, “Verily, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest.” (Qur’ān 13:28). Hearts are only at rest when you remember Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. When you remember Dunya, your heart is not at rest. It doesn’t attain peace. Peace comes only when you remember the name of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and make His ﷻ Dhikr. Your heart is at peace and you are at peace then.

In the time we live now, everyone has forgotten Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and is running after Dunya. They have filled their hearts with Dunya preoccupations. As they don’t think about anything else, all people, it is correct to say 99% of them, are not at peace and their hearts are uneasy. They are in fear. There is a new trend now, they call it a panic attack. We couldn’t understand what it is. But what we understand is that it is fear from the state of Dunya. The state of Dunya is in a position to be feared from. To whom is the position to be feared from? To those who have forgotten Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla.

People who are with Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla have content hearts everywhere. Wherever they are, in hardship and easiness, in sorrow and in whichever state they are, people who make the Dhikr of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla and remember Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla have content hearts. Why? Because people who always say, “He ﷻ created us. We came from Him ﷻ and to Him ﷻ we will return” are at rest.

Otherwise, people say, “What will our condition be now? This is gone. This has happened here. That has happened there. Our country is so. Here is like this and there is like that”. They don’t remember at all that these are things given by Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. What He ﷻ wants happens and His ﷻ will takes place.

People who believe in this have content hearts. Otherwise, they swear at the government, they swear at people. They swear at everyone old and young. They think they will be satisfied by swearing at others. Not at all. The more you swear, the darker your heart gets, the worse your heart gets.

What you should do is remember Allah ﷻ. We must know that we are in a test in this world and remember this. Everything comes from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. The things Allah ﷻ gives has wisdom in them. They are beneficial for believers. Both hardship and easiness have benefit for them. Nothing goes in vain. Everything has its reward. But if you don’t have Iman, if you don’t believe in Allah ﷻ, everything is bad for you then. Even if the best thing happens, it is bad for you. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ not remove His ﷻ Dhikr from our hearts. May our hearts always live with His ﷻ Dhikr insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

A’ūdhu bi-Llāhi mina sh-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

أَفَحَسِبْتُمْ أَنَّمَا خَلَقْنَاكُمْ عَبَثًا وَأَنَّكُمْ إِلَيْنَا لَا تُرْجَعُونَ

(Qur’ān 23:115). ‘Afaĥasibtum ‘Annamā Khalaqnākum `Abathāan Wa ‘Annakum ‘Ilaynā Lā Turja`ūn’, ‘Then did you think that We created you uselessly and that to Us you would not be returned?’ Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan, “Do you think We created you for nothing? Do you think you will not return to Us?”

People living in this time think they were created for no reason. They think they were created for entertainment and play. They think they are living for their mood to be good. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, “Did We create you for entertainment?” Eventually, there is no escape from where you are going. People will go to the presence of Allah ﷻ, and they will be questioned there: “You were given so many favors. So many things were given to you. But you have lived your life in vain. You have strived for nothing. You have lived all your life in order to satisfy and serve your ego.”

People of the present time think they are more knowledgeable. In old times, those who graduated from elementary school were educated. They knew everything. Nowadays, there are universities everywhere and they think they’ve become knowledgeable. Everywhere is full of ignorant ones, not knowledgeable people. From any perspective you look, when you even look from the perspective of knowledge, those who graduated from elementary school in old times and studied for 5-6 years were more knowledgeable than those at universities now. They were people who knew why they were created, why and what they did.

It is not over with studying. Studying doesn’t make your brain work. The only goal is to get that paper and hang it on the wall. That has no benefit. Benefit is in knowing why we are living. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, “We didn’t create you for entertainment. Eventually, you will return to Us, and you will see everything”. The things you don’t like and don’t accept will confront you. You will be in regret then. But regret will not bring any benefit.

Allah ﷻ gave everyone mind. He ﷻ gave both mind and opportunities. As we said, people of old times didn’t have the chance to study. However, they were benefitting from what they had learned. As we said, studying is useless if it doesn’t teach about knowing Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. That is not knowledge but ignorance. People of old times call such people educated ignorants. The whole world now is full of educated ignorants. May Allah ﷻ give us mind and understanding. May people understand the meaning of everything and find the way which is beautiful insha’Allah.

Some people feel proud of opening a school or university. No need to feel proud at all. Look if it brings any benefit or not. What they set forth in the country is the knowledge that keeps people away from Allah ﷻ. No benefit comes from that knowledge. No benefit comes to those who study and to those who teach. First of all, we must teach about Allah ﷻ, make them know Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. May Allah ﷻ make us all from those who know this insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

“أَجَلُّ الْكَرَامَاتِ دَوَامُ التَّوْفِيقِ”,

“Ajallu l-karāmāt dawāmu t-tawfīq”. If you want a Karāmāh, being steadfast on this way is from the best Karāmāt. When the way is good, there are many things that try to take you out of it. Shaytan, Nafs (ego), Hawa (desire), Dunyā – these are the enemies of people. They certainly strive to take people out of the way. It doesn’t serve their purpose when you are on the way. They want to mislead you. If you want a Karāmāh, when you are steadfast on the way, know that Allah ﷻ has given you such a beautiful state that you have the Karāmāh of Awliya.

Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says, “أَحَبُّ الأعمالِ إلى اللهِ أدْومُها وإن قَلَّ”, “A’habbu l-‘aa’mali ila Allah ‘adwamuha wa-in qalla”, “The acts most pleasing to God are those which are done most continuously, even if they amount to little.” The best thing and worship that you do is the continuous one, even if little. There are some people who think they become Awliya all of a sudden and start doing things they are not capable of. They do it for a week or two weeks. And within 1-2 months nothing remains with them; they can’t do it. Whereas if they do little by little but continuously, that is enough for them.

Sometimes people do things they cannot do. They quit it completely then and don’t do it at all. But when they do it little by little, it will be continuous and last until they die. When they die, Thawab will be written for them. Therefore, don’t do things you cannot keep up. It is the same with worldly things. We see some people, we see youngsters who spend 3-5 hours a day working out. If you cannot do this thing throughout your life, do a little, as much as you can do.

Continuity is the accepted thing both for Dunyā and Ākhirah. It is the good and advised thing. It is the most important thing, because people cannot do everything. Every person has a skill and capacity, things he can do and things he cannot do. Therefore, when you undergo something you cannot do and cannot maintain it throughout your life, it will not have any benefit. It will be harmful.

Therefore, mankind should do what they are capable of doing continuously.

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm

: “لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا”,

‘La yukallifu Llahu nafsan illa wus’aha’, ‘Allah does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacity.’ (Qur’ān 02:286). It is said in Ayati Sharifah, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla does not burden a man more than he can carry. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla has given him only as much as he can handle. He ﷻ knows how much people are capable of doing. May Allah ﷻ not let us deal with things we cannot do. May we not take upon ourselves a burden that we cannot carry insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ give us strength, and may it be continuous insha’Allah. May it be continuous so that we don’t leave it and get disappointed insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ protect us all.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Today is Jum’ah. There are recited Qur’an Khatms, Khatm Sharif, Yasin, Surahs and Ayat, Tasbihat and Tahlilat. There are recited Salawat Sharifah on our Holy Prophet ﷺ and Dala’il Al-Khayrat. We gift everything recited for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ and these beautiful things that want to be gifted at this hour, firstly to our Holy Prophet ﷺ, his Ahlu l-Bayt and Sahabah, the souls of all Anbiya, Asfiya, Mashayikh, the souls of all our late relatives, especially our Shaykh Mawlana Shaykh Nazim, Hala Sultan and Hajjah Anne, the souls of all our late relatives. For goodness to come and evil to be gone, for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. Li-Llahi Ta’ala l-Fatiha.

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُكُمْ أَن تُؤَدُّوا الْأَمَانَاتِ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهَا

(Qur’ān 04:58). ‘Inna Allāha Ya’murukum ‘An Tu’uaddū Al-‘Amānāti ‘Ilá ‘Ahlihā’, ‘Indeed, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due.’ Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is giving an order in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan, “Whatever you’ve been trusted, give it to whom they are due, give it to their owners”.

Whoever keeps the trust gets Barakah. Whoever betrays the trust will not have any benefit. Many people think they gained something when they have something valuable in their hands. Oftentimes they don’t want to give it back. They want to keep it. That doesn’t bring any benefit. That brings harms and no benefit, because it becomes Haram. Whoever consumes Haram does not have any goodness, neither in his body, nor in his soul. Deliver that trust to its destination, give it to its owner, says Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. It is something both physical and spiritual. People who hold the trust such as chairmanship, position of Sheikh or other; all those are a trust too. Whoever is given it, he must deliver it. It must be delivered to whomever it belongs to. This is important.

In general, things given to mankind and Haram seem sweet to people’s egos. People get greedy. When they are greedy, they consume poison. If you say, “Give it to me. Let me keep it” regarding this thing that just looks nice, it is poison. It will kill you. It will bring no benefit at all. It will make you crawl and lead you to all kinds of badness.

Make sure to give the trust to their owners. It can be inheritance or other things. They must certainly be given. Beware of obeying your ego and shaytan and taking that poison. Don’t take that bad thing. It will be nice when you give it to its owner on time. It will bring great benefit to you then. But if you decide to take it to yourself, it will be very harmful to you. It will be a big disaster. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ not keep us liable for anyone’s right insha’Allah. The rights of servants are tough. May Allah ﷻ protect us.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Shukr to Allah ﷻ, we have reached the new year. May it be blessed and good. It is the beginning of the year according to the Hijri calendar which started with the Hijrah of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam from Makkah to Madinah. As the calendar of Muslims and our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, the Hijri calendar especially belongs to the holy being of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Therefore, it is ok to congratulate on it. People congratulate on other things. These holy years are the means for goodness year by year insha’Allah. If you wish for goodness, you will get goodness, says our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.

These blessed days are in the month of Muharram which is a holy month too. It is the last of the Haram (Sacred) months. Dhu l-Qa’dah, Dhu l-Hijjah and Muharram: these three months are designated for Hajj. There is also the month of Rajab; that is separate. These three months are consecutive. They are the days of the Hajj season. These months have their specialties. There is the 10th of Muharram, Ashurah. It is a very big day. It is among the days that Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla gave as Barakah to people. There are great Thawab and good tidings from our Holy Prophet ﷺ to those who fast in Muharram. There is Barakah also.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla makes seasons for everything. He ﷻ creates occasions for believers to benefit from them. We ask for all kinds of goodness from Allah ﷻ because of this. We beg to Him ﷻ so that He ﷻ gives Iman and guidance to people, so that they don’t go astray from the right way.

People have become toys of shaytan. They don’t think about Akhirah. They only think about Dunya. As long as they think about Dunya, they will have difficulties. There won’t be easiness. Without the orders of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, you may be as skilled as you want, it doesn’t help. Therefore, we should always ask for Barakah and help from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. May Allah ﷻ help us all.

We have joined this way with His ﷻ virtue and kindness. We make Dua that we keep on this way insha’Allah. May there be guidance to Muslims. Many Muslims don’t know what they are doing. May Allah ﷻ send the Sahib so that he informs and shows people the way. May they not go out of the way. May they get it together.

Certainly, he will come insha’Allah. We hope every day that he comes. We hope every year that he comes. Insha’Allah this year will be his year, the year of Barakah, the year of beauty insha’Allah. May they be the years of Islam from now on insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ protect all of us. May He ﷻ give us the strength of Iman. May He ﷻ protect our Iman insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

“وَمَا آتَاكُمُ الرَّسُولُ فَخُذُوهُ وَمَا نَهَاكُمْ عَنْهُ فَانتَهُوا”,

“Wa Mā ‘Ātākumu Ar-Rasūlu Fakhudhūhu Wa Mā Nahākum `Anhu Fāntahū”, “And whatever the Messenger has given you – take; and what he has forbidden you – refrain from.” (Qur’an 59:07). Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.

Follow the things brought by the religion, our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam and Shari’ah, says Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Do what they order. Take and benefit from them, says Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. And stay away from what is forbidden.

The Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan is the word of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. It is His ﷻ advice and orders to people. It is the way that shows all kinds of goodness. And our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is the one who shows us the way. Follow his ﷺ way. Do what he ﷺ does. Follow his ﷺ orders and what he ﷺ brings. Obey his ﷺ orders. Keep prohibited what he ﷺ forbids. Do not follow them and do not do them.

Why is Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla saying this? In order for people to have benefit. They are for the benefit of people. All these orders and prohibitions are for the goodness of mankind. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla doesn’t need anything. He ﷻ is the Creator. As He ﷻ does not need anything, people must think and understand that this is for our benefit.

There are some stupid people who challenge Allah ﷻ and go against Him ﷻ. They do this and that. They do stupid things, nothing else. They are harming themselves, and they are oppressing themselves. When they do badness, badness comes to people.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla sent Prophets for the benefit of people. Everything they said is mercy and goodness for people. The opposite of that is shaytan. Shaytan wants all kinds of badness to humanity. Therefore, whoever has mind follows this path. Stupid ones go against it.

They think they are very clever. But they don’t obey the orders and don’t stay away from the forbidden. Even though they seem clever, they are not clever at all. Clever are the people who follow the good path and want to have the good end. May Allah ﷻ make us from them insha’Allah. May He ﷻ let us follow the good path and keep us away from the bad paths, harm, torment and evil insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

May Allah ﷻ give years with goodness. Shukr to Allah ﷻ, tonight is the Hijri New Year. May it be a blessed year insha’Allah. May it be the year of Islam and bring victory to Islam. May it be the year when hardships disappear insha’Allah. We hope that Mahdi ‘alayhi s-salam appears insha’Allah. Allah ﷻ knows; but our belief, belief of Ahlu s-Sunnah wa l-Jama’ah is on the appearance of Mahdi ‘alayhi s-salam. As our Holy Prophet ﷺ gave us the news of him, it is the duty of all of us to believe in this.

Another blessed year is gone and the new year is coming. One year is gone from our lives. Shukr to Allah ﷻ. Insha’Allah it is not gone for nothing. Because on the normal New Year of the other calendar they make great fuss, they make lots of preparation, and many people run here and there to commit all kinds of sins. They fill up the streets, they scream and shout, drink and do bad things.

Shukr to Allah ﷻ, this New Year is not like that. It starts with dignity and beauty. The other one starts at midnight and this one in at Maghrib. Shukr to Allah ﷻ, at Maghrib tonight we are entering the new year. The year that has the orders of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, Ramadan, ‘Ids, Qurban, Ashura, fasting and Hajj. All of them are in this year. It is a blessed year.

Of course, the other one can be used too. The other one has a different duty. But this one is for worship. The things to be done according to religion are in this one, not after this. We cannot mix them up. That one is different and this one is different. This one is for Akhirah and has Barakah.

This year is coming to end. Today is its last day. Until Maghrib, the year 1,444 is coming to an end. With the Maghrib Adhan, we will enter the new year. Shukr to Allah ﷻ, everything of this calendar is different than the other one. The other one is the year of Dunya. But this one is the year of Akhirah.

Therefore, we ask for the mercy of Allah ﷻ today and make Dua so that the worship we’ve performed is accepted and the sins are forgiven for our Akhirah. May He ﷻ forgive our sins and mistakes we’ve made. May He ﷻ change our badness to goodness. May He ﷻ change our sins to Thawab. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is giving this promise in the Qur’an: “يُبَدِّلُ اللَّهُ سَيِّئَاتِهِمْ حَسَنَاتٍ”, “Yubaddilu Llāhu sayyiātihim ḥasanāt”, “For them Allah will replace their evil deeds with good.” (Qur’an 25:70). The sins of the people who repent become Thawab. We repent too insha’Allah.

May Allah ﷻ forgive us. May the new year be good and be the year of Islam insha’Allah. We hope there is salvation for humanity and Muslims insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. The matter of dreams is always an issue for people. There are some that can be interpreted. Dreams that Prophets have are true dreams. They are by the order of Allah ﷻ. Sometimes Prophets did not receive revelations so orders came directly through dreams, or they had both dreams and revelations.

But for normal people, they should not act based on dreams. People who have dreams should not think, “l was ordered this in a dream, I have to do it”. You can do it if it’s good. Otherwise: “I will do this and that with my life”, no need to act based on the dream they had. Because the order of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is clear. The things we must do are clear.

There are good dreams. Interpreting them well will be the means for goodness. When they have a bad dream, it is better not to share them. No harm will come then. If they share it with everyone – when someone competent in interpretation does it well, it will be good. If he does it badly, it will be bad. Therefore, it is not good to share it with everyone, or to interpret as they like. If they have a good dream, they should praise Allah ﷻ and make Shukr. If they have a bad one, no need to share it. As long as they don’t tell, there is no harm.

Most people, people of Dunya don’t show much importance to that. Nevertheless, there are many people who are influenced by the dreams they have. They get demoralized and say, “We had a bad dream”. When you have a bad dream, as long as you don’t share it, it is not important. If you have a good dream, praise Allah ﷻ, make Shukr and hope it is for the better insha’Allah.

When it is good, unless you make Istikharah, no need to follow it. “This person will marry you. This person is good. This person is bad.” Looking at people well or badly based on a dream is not necessary. Because only Prophets have true dreams and they are told what to do.

In terms of Shari’ah, you cannot act based on a dream. If the dream is good, it is good. But if you are told not to do goodness in a dream, or if you see that this person is good and that person is bad, don’t pay much attention to it. Because you will have made “سوء الظن”, “Su’u z-Zann”, bad assumptions out of nothing. And you will get badness. May Allah ﷻ protect us.

Therefore, the matter of dreams is a matter which needs to be paid attention, especially by the people of Tariqah. If the people of Tariqah act [accordingly], shaytan enters from that door and says, “You are having a dream.” He can show the bad as good and the good as bad. There are shaytani dreams, too. Therefore, be careful. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May we not obey our egos and may we always keep our ego down. May we not do what our egos want.

The matter of dreams, as we said, there are shaytani and Rahmani dreams. Whatever people see, imagine or do during the day they may see in their dreams at night. Therefore, the matter of dreams is a matter to be careful with. May they be the means for goodness. If an order comes to you in a dream to go here and there and to do this and that, no need to go by that order. May Allah ﷻ make our dreams the means for goodness insha’Allah. May we have all kinds of goodness insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

The Hijri new year is approaching insha’Allah. It is the end of this year. In terms of the Hijri calendar, Wednesday will be the beginning of the new year. One year passed. These are the blessed years.

Days, months and years, everything people do is in Hand of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. It is for them to know the calculations. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says, “لِتَعْلَمُوا عَدَدَ السِّنِينَ وَالْحِسَابَ”, “Lita`lamū `Adada As-Sinīna Wa Al-Ĥisāb”, “That you may know the number of years and the count [of time].” (Qur’an 10:05). Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm. For our life in this world, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla created these days, months and years in order to measure everything, to evaluate how time is passing. Everything is His ﷻ creation. Day and night, months and years are things He ﷻ created.

Allah ﷻ gave specialty to some things. Their specialty is that there are the times of worship in them. People calculate their times of worship according to these months. They act accordingly. It is done according to the lunar calculation. The Wajib and Fard in the religion of Islam are adjusted according to it.

If you do outside that, there is no benefit. You miss an important thing, you miss the Fard and you strive in vain. If you don’t fast in Ramadan but fast in January, you lose the virtue of the Fard then. And you commit a sin when you don’t fast in Ramadan. If you fast in winter to make it easier, saying the days are shorter, you commit a sin. It is same with the matter of Hajj. It is done according to the lunar Hijri calendar. It is once a year on a single day. When you miss that day, your Hajj is invalid.

These days are appointed by Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. The Mawlid of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is on the 12th of Rabi ul-Awwal. When you celebrate it on the 20th of April, it has no benefit. Of course you should honor our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam every day. However, if you, according to your own mind, don’t celebrate on the 12th of Rabi ul-Awwal but celebrate it on the 20th of April, then you make Bid’ah and lose its virtue.

There are many things that we should calculate and not miss in terms of worship in this year, the Hijri year. Therefore, we should not be deceived by shaytan. Many people don’t even know when the Hijri year starts. When do they know? Never. Many people don’t know. But everyone gets prepared for the other new year thinking, “We should do this and that. We should commit a sin and do all kinds of things”. Shukr to Allah ﷻ, there is not such a thing in the Hijri new year.

The Hijri new year is the year given by Allah ﷻ as a gift to Muslims. Therefore, they must calculate things to be done according to it; if they can go to Hajj this year, when Ramadan is, when the Day of A’shura is. Everything has a different virtue. Missing them is a loss for people. May Allah ﷻ give us years with goodness insha’Allah. May they be of Barakah insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

“اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ”,

“Al-Lahu Al-Ladhī Khalaqa As-Samāwāti Wa Al-‘Arđa”, “It is Allah who created the heavens and the earth.” (Qur’an 32:04). Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is the one who created everything, heavens and earth. He ﷻ created everything the best way. Everything Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla created is for the benefit of people. He ﷻ made these favors special to them.

Because of the sins mankind commits, mankind made everything useless and harmful. Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

“ظَهَرَ الْفَسَادُ فِي الْبَرِّ وَالْبَحْرِ”,

“Žahara l-Fasādu Fī l-Barri Wa l-Baĥri”, “Corruption has appeared throughout the land and sea.” (Qur’ān 30:41). Corruption occurred on land and in sea, and everything became spoilt, says Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. It was said in the time of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. Nowadays, mankind is using everything much worse and doesn’t know what he is doing. They think they are doing goodness but they are doing badness. What they think is good is bad. And what they think is bad is actually good. People are in a confused state. But they stubbornly go on in same manner. They don’t accept that the way they follow is bad and do even worse. Instead of extinguishing the fire, they ignite it more and make it bigger.

We must turn back to Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla in order for humanity to be saved. Or else, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla makes these conditions increase with His ﷻ wisdom as the end of times and Qiyamah are approaching. Eventually, there will be a big cleansing. The cleansing will be with the bad ones going. Otherwise, there will not be a cleansing. Everywhere will be dirty with dirty people. Unless they are cleaned out, it won’t be clean.

This is the law of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. It had happened with previous nations. As it is the end of times now and Qiyamah will occur, it is the worst, people have not left anything clean. They are discovering new things every day – how much harm mankind is causing.

And people who claim to clean this and identify as clean are the dirtiest ones. Because they are the biggest enemies of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. They think they are important and want people to follow them. And what they ask to follow is to deny Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. If you deny Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, how can you be successful? “إِنَّمَا الْمُشْرِكُونَ نَجَسٌ”, “Innama l-Mushrikoona Najas”, “Indeed the polytheists are unclean.” (Qur’ān 09:28). Mushriks, those who don’t accept Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla are dirty. Therefore, they are harming themselves and are exhausted. They must clean themselves first. Then this cleansing comes after.

May Allah ﷻ help us. The condition is as such by the wisdom of Allah ﷻ. Whoever understands this wisdom will be patient and his end will be safe. May Allah ﷻ help us. May we be together with clean people insha’Allah.

There is both spiritual and physical dirtiness. Clean people will be saved. When a disease occurs, they wash their faces, hands and feet. They take a lot of medicine in order not to be sick by saying it is dirty. Everywhere is full of dirtiness now. They must clean themselves. There must be spiritual cleansing to be cleaned, for this world to be cleaned. It cannot be cleaned in any other way. It is so dirty, but there is the Sahib to clean it. Insha’Allah he will come soon and the earth will be cleaned insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ let us reach him insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

There are recited Qur’an Khatms, Dala’il Al-Khayrat, Ayat and Surahs, Yasin and Tabaraka. They entrusted us with everything recited from all over the world. We gift them firstly to the great soul of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, his Ahlu l-Bayt and Sahabah, the souls of all Anbiya, Awliya, Asfiya and Mashayikh, the souls of all of our late relatives. For goodness to come and evil to be gone, for us to be with good people. Li-Llahi Ta’ala l-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

The friends of Allah ﷻ are those who are beneficial to people. Allah ﷻ has favored some people in helping others reach guidance. May Allah ﷻ let us all benefit from the Barakah of these people. May Allah ﷻ let us be together with good people.

May Allah ﷻ bless his soul, Shaykh Sayyid Abdul Baki Efendi is a great Awliya and a scholar. He passed away from this world to the real world. May Allah ﷻ increase his rank. May He ﷻ give them patience. The biggest disaster for a Murid is the death of his Shaykh. Therefore, we wish patience to his followers and those left behind him. His way will continue insha’Allah. It will go on, Shukr to Allah ﷻ.

The way of Tariqah is a beautiful way which is beneficial to people. Because there is the most important thing in it: to know the value of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, to honor him ﷺ and to walk on his ﷺ way. These are the things disliked by shaytan. Therefore, shaytan is making all kinds of tricks so that people stay away from Tariqah. He insists it is Shirk, it is this or that. Whereas Tariqah is the direct way of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Tariqah is the order of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla that is beneficial to people.

There is no separation between Tariqah and Shari’ah. Shari’ah and Tariqah are one. We must go on this way. This way is the way of salvation for people. The rest is the way that doesn’t respect our Holy Prophet ﷺ and doesn’t appreciate our Holy Prophet ﷺ. That is the way outside of Tariqah which misleads people. The way shaytans dislike the most is the way of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, because he ﷺ removes all the traps they make. Everything they do goes in vain.

The way of Tariqah, Shukr to Allah ﷻ, whoever is in Tariqah, it is good for him. There are many Tariqahs. There are forty one Tariqahs. When you follow any one of them, you go on the way of Allah ﷻ, you go on the way of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. This is the Haqq/true way. May Allah ﷻ not separate us from it. May Allah ﷻ increase the ranks of our Mashayikh and let us attain their Barakah and follow their way insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Bismillahir-Rahmani-Raheem

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

“Yassirū wa-lā tu‘assirū, bash’shirū wa-lā tunaffirū”, “Make things easy and do not make them difficult. Give people good tidings and do not make them run away”, says our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.

Know every deed as good. We must know that everything we do is a blessing from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Then those deeds are blessed and go smoothly. But if you say every deed is difficult and not easy and ask for help from others, everything will be difficult for you. Allah ﷻ gave you strength, blessing and mind. Everyone can live with his potentials. Allah ﷻ gave everyone skills and abilities. If you keep on with them and get along with people, you will have a comfortable life. But if you don’t like anything and don’t get along with people, it will be your fault then.

Some people are as such that whatever you do, they find a flaw. You tell them to do this, they say, “It won’t work. It is like this”. You say, “Everyone is doing so”. They do. But even though they do, they are not successful, they fail. And then you tell them to do this. They find thousand things in this and it doesn’t work too. You tell them to do whatever they want, but they still fail. And they blame others for it. “You told me to do so but it didn’t work out”, whereas they didn’t do anything.

They find flaws and faults in everything. Everything fails and goes wrong. Why? Because the intention or thought is weak, damaged and not good since the beginning. Therefore, our Holy Prophet ﷺ used to say, “فَإِذَا عَزَمْتَ فَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ”, “Fa’idhā `Azamta Fa-tawakkal `Alá Allāhi”, “And when you have decided, then rely upon Allah.” (Qur’an 03:159). When you want to do something, step in it without fear. You will succeed then.

As we said, there is a part of people, not all people, who say “It won’t work” whatever you do and say. It is because, as we said, they are damaged since the beginning. Their deed is damaged before even making a step. Because their intention is damaged, they are damaged, so everything they do is damaged. But if they start by making Tawakkul and saying ‘with the permission of Allah ﷻ’ and ‘BismiLlah and if they are patient, the result will be secured for sure. Otherwise, “You told me and I did it. So it’s your fault”. Whereas, the fault is theirs.

No one is going to watch over the deeds others are doing. They give advice and show the way. If you follow that way, it is good. Certainly, obstacles occur on the way. There is easiness too. But it cannot be absolutely easy. If things were easy, everyone would go on the same way. People have become more of this type now. They swear at the government, they swear at people. They don’t like anything. Who don’t like anything are at loss themselves. Therefore, “يَسِّرُوا ولا تُعَسِّرُوا”, “Yassirū wa-lā tu‘assirū”, “Make things easy and do not make them difficult.” Make it easy, ask for goodness, and you will have goodness. If you don’t ask for goodness, you will be tested. And your work won’t go smoothly then.

This advice is for everyone. When a person is carried away and blames others, he can never be successful. People fall, get up, then walk and rise. But if they wait for others to come and raise them, they will remain down there, and no one will help them. May Allah ﷻ help people. This is the advice for the worldly life. It applies to everyone. Don’t expect help from anyone but yourself. Everyone is busy with his ego. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is saying in Qur’an, “وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِزْرَ أُخْرَىٰ”, “Wa Lā Taziru Wāziratun Wizra ‘Ukhrá”, “And no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another.” (Qur’an 35:18). No one can carry the sins and burdens of others. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla created those people. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla adjusted what they will do accordingly. It will be easy for them to go on that way. They shouldn’t expect from others, they should expect from Allah ﷻ. They should ask for help from Allah ﷻ for their work to go smoothly.

As we said, there is a type of such people. If you meet them, there’s no need to even talk to them. Because whatever you tell them and show them, they don’t like it. They say “We did it, it didn’t work out”. They take your time for nothing and cause you headache for nothing. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ give income from goodness to everyone insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

The names of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla are many. He ﷻ told about 99 names to the Ummah of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. Each of them has its manifestation and specialty. The last name is As-Sabur. It means ‘The Most Patient’. The manifestation of patience has been appointed for the state of this time. Because the badness, disobedience and sins have never been committed as much as this time. And that requires patience.

People of this time say, “Why didn’t this happen to us?” Upon the people and nations of old times, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla would either make it rain fire upon them or the earth would fold upon itself. He ﷻ gave all kinds of punishments. However, even though they did not do even one thousandth of the things done in this time, punishment came upon them. But in this time, there is the manifestation of the name As-Sabur. There is the manifestation of Sabr (patience). Because it is the last time for this Ummah, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla made this manifestation occur up until the time comes and Qiyāmah happens.

Therefore, they must not think that people live without an owner. “We came like this and we will leave like this.” The Owner of everything is Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. His ﷻ rule prevails. Mankind are getting lower and lower. They are following their egos and doing all kinds of badness. They think they will not be held accountable. Most of the time, people do that thinking nothing will happen. Then, they are in regret when the punishments come, saying “Where did they come from.”

This time is a time of winning for good people. Those who do what Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla has ordered win. It’s the time of trade. It’s the hardest time, but this time is the best time for trade. We have much more rewards. The rewards and Thawāb given by Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla are according to the hardship; the more difficult it is, the more rewards there is. Therefore, difficulties are many for those who believe. They want them to do badness by force, and they forbid goodness. If you try to do good, if you say something, people are punished, saying “This is bad and useless.”

Therefore, May Allah ﷻ help us. It is a beautiful time for believers. Because the end is goodness, the end of hardship is ease and beauty. Insha’Allah we will reach that. The Sahib (owner) will come and clean the dirtiness everywhere insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says the greatest favor and gift for us is to be from the Ummah of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, to be from the Ummah of the end of times. It is a great favor to those who know. To those who don’t know, there is regret.

Nowadays, it is the time of not appreciating. Everything has lost its value. No one appreciates anything. Also materialistically, nothing has any value now. In old times – what we mean by old times is 30 years ago. Money was gold and not paper. With one golden coin a person could live for a month. Now there is no possibility to live as such.

Certainly, it is the will of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Expensiveness and other things are all in His ﷻ Hand. When He ﷻ takes away Barakah from people, everything becomes worthless. This is not important. What’s important is to know the truly valuable thing. And the valuable thing is to be from the Ummah of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, to be from the Ummah of the end of times. It is a great profit for people.

However, they are running after the things they do and things in their minds. They are giving them value and not appreciating the truly valuable thing. They are appreciating useless things. And most importantly, they are appreciating themselves. They love themselves and don’t want anything else. They see their egos as supreme and see themselves as more important.

Being on the way of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is good, but they don’t like it. Even though everyone is small and their egos are small, shaytan has given them such things in their hands [telephones] that they think they are important and strive so that people glorify and appreciate them. They strive not to appreciate the will of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla but to appreciate themselves. Therefore, what they do is without benefit and useless. Most of the time, it is harmful as well.

When we are from Ummah of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, the greatest thing is to make Shukr for this and to appreciate it. No need to exalt our egos. No need to give value to our egos. The more you praise your ego, the more worthless you become. The more you strive to exalt your ego, the more you lower yourself. There will be no benefit to you but harm. May Allah ﷻ protect us.

All people living in this time know this. Whereas our mother Sayyidatina Maryam said, “يَا لَيْتَنِي مِتُّ قَبْلَ هَٰذَا وَكُنتُ نَسْيًا مَّنسِيًّا”, “Yā Laytanī Mittu Qabla Hādhā Wa Kuntu Nasyāan Mansīyāa”, “She said, ‘Oh, I wish I had died before this and was in oblivion, forgotten.” (Qur’an 19:23). She said, “If only I were nothing but someone who would be forgotten” when she gave birth to Sayyidina ‘Isa ‘alayhi s-salam. When she didn’t want her ego and wished to be nothing, she was raised to highest ranks. She is mentioned in several places in Qur’an. She is a person loved by all people. When she lowered her ego and eliminated her ego, she was raised to highest ranks. But people of the present time strive to glorify themselves and to exalt themselves. That is the trap of shaytan. May we not fall into it insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ protect us from the evil of our egos.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says if an action is started without BismiLlah, that action will not have a good outcome. Good deeds must be started with BismiLlah. Insha’Allah they will always be the means to goodness and will continue so. Shukr to Allah ﷻ, there was a beautiful wedding ceremony last night. We started it with BismiLlah. Insha’Allah they will have a good life.

People don’t pay attention to important things. When getting married, people sometimes start their lives not with goodness and BismiLlah but with badness. And then there is no benefit. They give drinks and food forbidden by Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla at the weddings. It doesn’t have a good ending then.

Everything must be for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. For the pleasure of Allah ﷻ, His ﷻ name must come first. We start every event with the beautiful name of Allah ﷻ, with the names ar-Rahman and ar-Rahim. With the permission of Allah ﷻ, this event will have a good outcome and a good start. Every side of it will be good insha’Allah.

Otherwise, it won’t be good. Something started with a sin will neither be beautiful, nor good. Therefore, people must be careful. Sometimes people forget. Sometimes they fall into heedlessness. The things they do don’t bring benefit. What brings benefit is when everyone is on the way of Allah ﷻ, when they are on the way of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. That is what brings benefit, because Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla created us to be on His ﷻ way.

BismiLlahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim,

‘وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ’,

‘Wa-ma Khalaqtu l-Insa wal Jinna illa li-Ya’budun’, ‘And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.’ (Qur’ān 51:56). “I created Jinn and people to perform worship”. As long as they perform worship, people live, eat, drink, walk and do everything for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ then. Otherwise, it is for their egos.

Allah ﷻ made everything permissible. There is Halal and Haram in everything. And both have their price. When people do one of it, they are not deprived of the other one. When you goodness, even though sin appears to be good, it doesn’t have any goodness. It has no benefit.

Therefore, it is a great virtue for people to always be on the way of Allah ﷻ. It is great luck. As Allah ﷻ has granted it, following this way and making Shukr to Allah ﷻ are our duty. May Allah ﷻ help us in following His ﷻ way. May He ﷻ not let us go astray insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

“الَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ فِي السَّرَّاءِ وَالضَّرَّاءِ”,

“Al-Ladhīna Yunfiqūna Fī As-Sarrā’i Wa đ-Đarrā’i”, “Who spend (freely) [in the cause of Allah ] during ease and hardship.” (Qur’an 03:134). Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is praising those who give Sadaqah both secretly and openly and who perform worship. When giving Sadaqah, it is better to give it secretly, says Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. It can be given openly as well. But it is better to give secretly. It is better in terms of humanity. In order for a needy person not to feel embarrassed, it is better to give it secretly.

It is better for the one who gives as well not to be proud. What they do must be for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. He must neither show it off, nor expect anything. The given Sadaqah and given charity are for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. No need to expect even gratitude for it.

If they thank you, they do. If not – Some people say, “We gave to them but they didn’t thank us”. You gave for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ, so you must expect it from Allah ﷻ. You must expect the reward and Thawab from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. But if you gave in order to be thanked, it is worthless then. The actual reward from the presence of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is important. If all people thank you, it has no benefit. The beneficial is when Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is pleased with you and is happy with the deeds you do. What’s important for us is the pleasure of Allah ﷻ and satisfaction of Allah ﷻ with us.

People of the present time want to do, even little things, for personal benefit. When they do something, they remind people of this favor; “I did this, I did that.” Whereas it is said in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan, “لَا نُرِيدُ مِنكُمْ جَزَاءً وَلَا شُكُورًا”, “Lā Nurīdu Minkum Jazā’an Wa Lā Shukūrāa”, “We wish not from you reward or thanks.” (Qur’ān 76:09). “We don’t expect anything in return, not even gratitude. We did it for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ”. Paradise is promised to them. Beautiful paradise is promised to them. That is much better than this whole world.

What is gratitude? It is nothing. Allah ﷻ is teaching us goodness and beautiful manners. May He ﷻ make us successful in following that way. May we not obey our egos. People nowadays have made up new things; impoliteness and this and that. They want to show what they do, “We did this. We did that”. If you do it for showing off, it has no value then. Nevertheless, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will reward you like giving one instead of a thousand. May Allah ﷻ help people insha’Allah. May they come to their senses.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:(5:51)

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says,

“خَيْرُكُمْ مَنْ تَعَلَّمَ القُرْآنَ وَعَلَّمَهُ”,

“Khayrukum man ta‘allama l-Qur’ān wa ‘allamah”, “The best among you is he who learns and teaches the Qur’ān.” The best of you is the one who learns and teaches the Qur’ān, he ﷺ says. Now when it is summer time, children go from their schools to the mosque to learn the Qur’ān. People are sending them, but not as much as they used to before.

So, today or tomorrow, with Allāh’s ﷻ permission, they will start giving Qur’ān lessons in mosques. Even one day is better than what they study the whole year. Even one hour is better than all they read. Because they are reading the word of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Along with that word, light descends to their hearts. It becomes a means for goodness.

Everything done for the sake of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is good for people. Whatever they study, they should not forget Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. In order for the knowledge they studied to be means for goodness, it should be studied with that intention.

Because children’s schools are bad. “We pay this much, we pay that much.” People don’t know anything but to give money. “Let my son study too, let my daughter get a diploma.” We don’t know what they’ll do with the diploma. People are obsessed with the diploma. They are not thinking of anything else. They do not think about the ākhirah.

Here, Qur’ān courses are opened. A few children go there. May Allāh ﷻ be pleased with them. Even if it is for about a month, still there are many shaytans disturbed by what they have learned. Because what they learn is the way of Allāh ﷻ. They teach the word of Allāh ﷻ. But they teach the way of shaytan, the word of shaytan. Of course, they don’t want that. But for goodness, it is a great necessity, a great benefit for human beings, young and old, to learn the Qur’ān.

Therefore, it is not difficult. Because sixty or seventy years ago, or even more, they changed the alphabet of the Qur’ān. “It is very difficult. People cannot read it.” However, everyone was reading it. They made everyone ignorant overnight. They cannot read Latin letters. But there is no difficulty. People have been reading it for years. They learn all kinds of languages. They learn Chinese, Tut, Japanese and I don’t know what. They know everything. When it comes to the word of the Qur’ān, it is very difficult to read it.

However, with the permission of Allāh ﷻ, a person can read in a week if he makes an effort. If he couldn’t read in a week, he can read in a month. Here they’re teaching children to read in a month. If not one month, then in two months, five months, one year, one can easily read.

When you read, Allāh ﷻ writes thousands of Thawāb for each letter and gives thousands of rewards. In Qur’ān ‘Azīmu sh-Shān there are all kinds of goodness, Shifā, Barakāh, light and Imān. Every beauty is in it. It is the word of Allāh ﷻ. It is the most precious thing. It is the best and the most beautiful of what is given to people as a gift from Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. There is nothing more beautiful than it in dunyā.

People are not aware of it. Those who are aware are only a few. May Allāh ﷻ increase them in shā’a Llāh. It will give clarity of mind to those who read it. May it be means for goodness. Because they most probably start today or tomorrow. This will be a beautiful education and training in shā’a Llāh to people. May it be beneficial for the children in shā’a Llāh. May they be beneficial for this country, the Ummāh and Islam in shā’a Llāh.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:(3:40)

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Today is a beautiful day Shukr to Allāh ﷻ. With the Barakāh and Himmāh of Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim, the Hajjis came today Shukr to Allāh ﷻ. Those who go to Hajj will have Barakāh, and whoever is around them will also have from that Barakāh.

Now, of course, the old customs are gone; the good old customs. When the Hajji came from Hajj, they would make him a great welcome. They would come to visit him. They would drink from Zamzam and eat from the dates he brought. They would kiss his hand. These are beautiful customs. Those customs no longer remain. But those customs are Barakāh. Which means they will also be granted from the Barakāh that comes to him.

That’s why, Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim paid great attention to these matters. He even went to the airport to bid us farewell several times when we were going to Hajj. And when coming back, he would come to welcome us many times. So it is Barakāh for both them and those who make Hajj.

Hajj is a great virtue. It is a great favor of Allāh ﷻ to mankind. If one was destined and favored to go, it is a great grace. It is grace from Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Every sin of the Hajji is forgiven. His Duas are also accepted. The Duas of the Hajjis are accepted until forty days after their arrival. So you must ask them for good Dua. In shā’a Llāh it will be good for him, the Hajjis and us in shā’a Llāh. May it be a conquest for Islam. May Allāh ﷻ protect us from the evil of evil people in shā’a Llāh.

This is a beautiful thing, Shukr to Allāh ﷻ. Our brother Shaykh Bahauddin Efendi had a very nice Hajj with his sons mā shā’a Llāh. May Allāh ﷻ give such good children to everyone in shā’a Llāh.

These Duas, the most important Dua, the most important Dua now for Muslims is for their children to be good. To be protected from these shaytans. Wherever we go, the shaytan is mostly attacking – he is attacking the elders but the youngsters even more. Because they didn’t.. Therefore, our Dua must always be to have good children. To be good children so that they will benefit you in both this world and the hereafter in shā’a Llāh. To not be in need of anyone. May they all live with Barakāh in shā’a Llāh.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:(6:45)

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

The most important thing in this world is being on the way of Allāh ﷻ. When you are on the way of Allāh ﷻ, your duty ends only when you pass away from this world. While in this world, you must do what Allāh ﷻ orders all the time. Islām is the religion of nature. It is the religion that suits the nature of people.

Therefore, praying five times a day – just like you eat and drink, just like you breathe, it is the necessary food for people. It is the spiritual food. People are not counted as people without it. The ranks of people increase with worship. When they leave worship, their ranks decrease. They join the category of the four-legged animals. And there are people who fall even lower.

People living in present time do not accept this favour and high ranks given to them by Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. They say, “No, we don’t want it. We will do whatever we want”. When they do so, they become faulty. They become faulty day by day and get worse. Therefore, we start teaching children how to pray when they are seven years old. More when they are ten. When they are mature, it becomes farḍ. They become accountable for it, or Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla will make them pay on the day of judgment. Their account is in the presence of Allāh ﷻ. Doing this while in this world brings great benefit to people. They say no one does more badness than people do to themselves. This is it. You don’t do it while you are free and have the opportunity. And when it is postponed to ākhirah, they will make you do it in a much more difficult way.

Therefore, spirituality is more important than materiality. People have indulged themselves in materiality 100% now. There is not even 1% spirituality in people. And then they complain, “Why is this so? Why is that so?” If you tell them their fault, they don’t accept it. Therefore, not much is told in this time, because if you tell them, they may commit more sins. So we stay patient and say we don’t accept it in our heart. When we don’t accept it, we have the weakest state of īmān. But there is nothing else we can do. As we are living in the end of times, the condition is as so.

When you say, “Most people are like this. Look at the people, everyone is doing so. So I will do so too”, those people will give their account, so will you. If you separate yourself from them, you’ll be saved. But if you go their way, you will be dragged too. May Allāh ﷻ not let that happen, the way will be to hell. May Allāh ﷻ protect us.

Therefore, as we said, we must carry out the orders of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla throughout our lives. It is more important than eating, drinking and sleeping. It is more necessary. It is above materiality. Because materiality takes you up to a point. The rest is for spirituality. If you don’t have spirituality, you are in trouble then. May Allāh ﷻ protect us.

May Allāh ﷻ not separate us from the right way. May He ﷻ not give us boredom. Sometimes some people say, “When is the prayer?” Morning, afternoon and night. “Tomorrow?” Tomorrow too. “After tomorrow?” After tomorrow too. “Until when?” Until you die. “Isn’t it too much?” People eat every day. They drink every day. They sleep every day. It is the same. There is no difference in worship. It is no different than eating, drinking and sleeping. It is the same. We are in need of this even more. May Allāh ﷻ help us. May He ﷻ not let us obey our egos in shā’a Llāh.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:(4:28)

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says that richness is not in abundance of wealth and possessions. This is not richness. Richness is in controlling the ego. The person who controls his ego is the rich one.

Richness – a man has wealth as much as this world and he still wants on top if it. He wants to himself without giving anything to anyone else, even to the poor. On the other hand, a person whose soul is rich, even with little, does not condescend to anything. Whatever he finds is enough. This is the rich one. He doesn’t need anyone.

Otherwise, he will be all the time not satisfied with what he has, and not happy with what he has. He chases after Dunyā greedily all the time for other things. He chases after Dunyā. And while chasing after Dunyā, he does not recognize rights. He recognizes neither the rights of servants, nor the rights of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. He attacks all kinds of things like ‘a hungry wolf’, they say.

Otherwise, even if he has a little, he doesn’t need anyone. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla gives him what’s enough for him from Rizq, gives him peace, and is pleased with him because of his beautiful state. Otherwise, a person who goes after Dunyā, Allāh ﷻ is not pleased with him because he forgets Allāh ﷻ.

What’s important is that our richness is the pleasure of Allāh ﷻ. When Allāh ﷻ is pleased with us, this is our greatest richness. It is an eternal richness. Dunyā does not remain to anyone. The person who chases after this Dunyā and ruins and destroys himself for Dunyā, will eventually also leave it and go. That time, those who have rights upon him will follow him to ākhirah. If he did not ask for forgiveness from Allāh ﷻ, he will also account for it. Which means there is neither comfort in Dunyā nor comfort in ākhirah.

Therefore, let your soul be rich. Don’t be in need of anyone. Don’t disgrace yourself to anyone. Don’t run after Dunyā. Whatever your Rizq is in Dunyā, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla sends it. The person who knows this is a rich one. May Allah ﷻ make us from them in shā’a Llāh.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:(4:06)

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Shukr to Allāh ﷻ, our old traditions are the traditions upon which is the love of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, the love of Islām. All traditions of old people are as such. Everything was for the pleasure of Allāh ﷻ. Therefore, it is our duty to keep on what they did. We shouldn’t let them be forgotten. Who lets them be forgotten has gone astray.

Shukr to Allāh ﷻ, may Allāh ﷻ bless it, it is the third day of ‘Īdu l-Aḍḥā today. An old tradition in Cyprus that Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim used to follow is going to the Sulṭān here on the third day of ‘Īd. Who is the Sulṭān? Hala Sulṭān. Hala Sulṭān who is the Sulṭān of ākhirah. They used to visit her on the third day. They take her blessing and ‘Īd is complete then.

Therefore, shukr to Allāh ﷻ for Allāh ﷻ is giving us this chance to follow this blessed tradition. Sometimes we couldn’t go for years. It was closed. We did not go. But nowadays this chance is given to visit her, to visit Awliyā’, ṣaḥābah and Prophets. Barakah and mercy descends on their graves, and mercy comes to those who visit them.

Do not listen to new people. They say visiting graves is wrong. Our Holy Prophet ﷺ used to visit graves. And he ﷺ advised this. There are ḥadīths. It is something that was always done. And that is the work of shayṭān so that people don’t attain this thawāb. He gives waswasa to people and says it is wrong to visit graves and this and that. Where were you? The things done 1,400 years and 100 years ago are on this way. There had been perverts just like always. They didn’t show respect. There were people who didn’t respect our Holy Prophet ﷺ, his ﷺ Ahlu l-Bayt and ṣaḥābah. But they were shaken every time and got scattered like dirt. However they got scattered, they got scattered over Islām.

Therefore, wherever there is ziyārah and maqām, they must be visited to get their blessing. Qur‘ān must be read, and all kinds of favours are given. Their virtue and blessing will come to you in shā’a Llāh. Because we do it for the pleasure of Allāh ﷻ. We don’t worship them. We go to the beloved servants of Allāh ﷻ. The mercy that descends upon them will come to you as well with the permission of Allāh ﷻ.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Bismillahir-Rahmani-Raheem

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Labbayka Llāhumma labbayk. Labbayka lā sharīka laka labbayk. Inna l-ḥamda, wa n-niʻmata, laka wa-l-mulk, lā sharīka lak. Allāhu Akbar, Allāhu Akbar, lā ilāha illā Llāhu wa-Llāhu akbar. Allāhu Akbar wa liLlāhi l-ḥamd. Alhamdulillah this Day of Arafat is a blessed day. In shā’a Llāh may this reward be written to you and to us in shā’a Llāh.

This beautiful and blessed time now is the time when Hajjis stand at Arafat. Hajj makes people virtuous and is a means to all kinds of goodness. Therefore, to perform Hajj is Fard (obligatory). Fard are things that are of great benefit to people. They are worships that are beneficial in a person’s life. Among worship, the Fard are works that have great benefits. The works of Dunyā are in vain. The works of Ākhirah are beneficial and true works. How lucky are those who can do them! It is a pity for those who could not do them, and those who had the opportunity and did not do them. What a pity! It is a pity for the person who does not do them, meaning who neglects them and does not do them even though he could.

But of course, the situation of the world now does not allow it. In old times, going to Hajj was a great burden. Few people could go. They were also of benefit for themselves and others also. In the present time it is easier, but this time there are other obstacles.

So the worship of Hajj is as ordered by Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla, “Wa-li-llāhi ʿalā n-nasi ḥijju l-bayti mani staṭāʿa ilayhi sabīla.” (3:97) Hajj is obligatory for everyone, but it is to whom is capable in terms of the way, money and health. Shukr to Allah ﷻ, He ﷻ didn’t say that you must go in all cases. When you have the opportunity, when the ways are opened, when you have a visa – now this issue has come up, and it has become an obstacle. Some people in old times used to be able to go after five or six years. Even some could go after ten years, they say. Now there are some people who have been waiting for fifteen years. They are waiting because the permit has not been issued yet, the visa has not been issued. This is another obstacle. This is also by Allah’s ﷻ wisdom.

Therefore, when one has the opportunity, let him do this worship. He should certainly do it, for the greatest benefit is that he will be cleansed of all his sins. Whatever burdens he has and sins he has done, he gets rid of them. It’s like being born again by his mother. He comes without any sin with Allah’s ﷻ permission. This is an important thing. Of course, if there is a servant’s right, that is another matter. He needs to be forgiven, just as Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is forgiving and cleansing all the rights that are the rights of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla.

Our Prophet ṣallá Llahu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says that whoever is not in Hajj but fasts today, the Day of Arafat, the sins of the past year and a year ahead are forgiven; which means two years. The rights of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla from worship and other things, all of the sins done are forgiven. And that is not including the servants’ rights. This is also a great mercy of Allah ﷻ and a grace of Allah ﷻ to people. If it is according to mankind’s own mind, people will not forgive the things done. Which means he does not forgive the things done to him. But the word of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is true and the word of our Holy Prophet ﷺ is true. All sins are forgiven.

But in shā’a Llāh, we must also repent and not return to those sins. Sins are not a good thing. They are a bad thing. Even if forgiven, not doing it again is a great goodness for people. Committing sins is badness. People do goodness to themselves, and people do badness to themselves. The biggest enemy for mankind is his own ego. The badness done by their egos are forgiven in shā’a Llāh for those who have fasted and those who went to Hajj. But he shouldn’t do it a second time. He must control his ego and not do all of them at least. Some people forbid themselves, they control their egos. Sin is something that has no goodness at all. It has a lot of evil, and no goodness at all.

But still, this opportunity exists because by Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla’s mercy the Door of Repentance is not closed. The meaning of the Ayah: O people who do badness, O people who commit sins, O people who do all kinds of inappropriate things, do not despair of Allah’s ﷻ mercy. Allah ﷻ forgives all sins. Therefore, the person who is a Muslim and does not leave faith, does not leave Islam and does not go into Kufr, Allah ﷻ forgives him for all kinds of sins he has done. And he will take care of the servant’s right by himself.

So today is a blessed day. May Allah ﷻ grant us all a good life with Iman and Islam in shā’a Llāh, with Barakah and all kinds of goodness. May He ﷻ facilitate what is good for us. May we be make our lives according to Allah’s ﷻ pleasure in shā’a Llāh. Today, these hours until the evening are the most blessed times. It is one of the most blessed days of the year. At least recite a thousand Ikhlas, Salawat, Tahlil, Takbir, Qur’an, whatever you can do, make Duas also, Allah ﷻ accepts them in shā’a Llāh. May Allah ﷻ bless you. May Allah ﷻ make us reach better years. May we be together with Mahdi ‘alayhi s-salām, Sahibu z-Zaman in shā’a Llāh.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha

Bismillahir-Rahmani-Raheem

Listen to Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Shukr to Allah ﷻ we are in these holy days. The name of Eid ul-Adha speaks for itself – we must slaughter Qurban. It is Wajib to slaughter it for those who have Nisab as long as they are mature. It is not necessary for children. Someone who is mature and has Nisab which means he has around 100 grams in a year, it is Wajib for him to make Qurban according to Hanafi Madhhab. According to other Madhhabs, it is Sunnah Mu’akkadah.

It is the duty that our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam did every year both as Wajib and as Sunnah Muakkadah, as the duty you have to carry out. It is the duty that Muslims should and can do. There is great wisdom in it. And there is great Thawab given by Allah ﷻ. Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says you benefit from it and you attain great Thawab. There is Thawab for each hair of slaughtered Qurban. There is Thawab in each blood that flows out.

And then you can either distribute Qurban, or eat it yourself. Poor and needy ones may eat it. They can keep it however they want, or eat it completely. There is no problem and no sin for eating it. But as a principle, one third remains at home, one third is given to friends, and one third is given to poor ones.

Of course, it is best to stand by Qurban and slaughter it yourself. It is better, but there is no such opportunity these days to do so. Therefore, many people appoint someone else to slaughter it. They do it here or in another place. It is better to slaughter in your place. But as there are poor people all over the world, it is ok to do that so that there is benefit to Muslims. Some poor people eat meat once a year and some even once in a couple of years. Therefore, there is no problem in sending it to other places by appointing someone and having it slaughtered on your behalf.

Certainly, when Qurban is made, two Rakā’at Sunnah prayer must be performed. Accordingly, if you can’t do it at the same time, you can find out when it is slaughtered and pray two Rakā’at on the same or the next day. Doing that brings great benefit to people.

When you appoint someone for Qurban, you say your name and your mother’s name, and tell him you make him your Wakeel (proxy). Or you may be Wakeel for someone who wants to make Qurban. And they must say there is permission for it. Sometimes they appoint someone without giving names. That may be ok according to their intention. However, it is necessary to give the names. We should not ignore this.

The religion of Islam is the true religion. It has shown and told the ‘Adaab and principles of everything. It is much more virtuous to follow these ‘Adaab and principles. If you do it without knowing or forget it, Allah ﷻ will accept it according to your intention insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ bless it. May He ﷻ let us make Qurban, because as we said, making Qurban brings Barakah and there is benefit to us. It is a great favor and great benefit from all aspects.

Whoever can make Qurban should certainly do it. If he can’t do it himself, as we said, now is not like in old times. In old times, they used to bring Qurban home. Everyone slaughtered it in their homes and distributed it. Nowadays, there is not much opportunity for it. Therefore, there are places where they do it and places where you can send it. Doing this will bring great benefit to Muslims with the permission of Allah ﷻ. There will be Barakah and you will attain Thawab. May Allah ﷻ accept it. May Allah ﷻ let us reach many more years insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
