Allāh ﷻ has given our Prophet ﷺ and his ﷺ ummah 99 of His ﷻ names. One of them is the Greatest Name of Allāh ﷻ. It is a secret. Of course, those who possess it don’t deviate from Allāh’s ﷻ pleasure.
Being with Allāh ﷻ and remembering Him ﷻ every moment is the most beautiful thing. Everything you do will be good then. That is what a beautiful life is. That is what the most beneficial life is. This is the motto of ṭarīqah. So, how can we achieve that?
Fitnahs of the end of times are great. The worst of them is the bad scholar. They harm people both spiritually and materially. They claim to renew and reform Islām. And they are against ṭarīqah. Neither believe them nor listen to them!
Don’t think of evil negatively. Allāh ﷻ will create good in it. Shayṭān decieves people. Just watch what the outcome will be; it’s always good. To those who rebel, whether in their hearts or by speaking it, repent and seek forgiveness from Allāh ﷻ!
Oppression is darkness. Don’t incline towards the oppressors or else fire will touch you. Protect yourself. Do not comment on anything, Allāh ﷻ will be with you and protect you.
Whatever Allāh ﷻ wills happens. Our Prophet ﷺ says, when Allāh ﷻ wants someone to do something unusual, He ﷻ takes away his mind and makes him do it. We are now in the Manifestation of the name “As-Sabūr.”
Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim used to say, one must appreciate life while still alive. Don’t waste your precious time and life in useless works. Know the value of this precious jewel.
Allāh ﷻ protects the believers. Whoever is with Allāh ﷻ is always victorious and safe. One’s heart mustn’t incline towards evil. Hold firmly onto the way of Allāh ﷻ and remain of the way of truth.
Our Prophet ﷺ says, “Never ask for tests, but ask for beneficence.” Tests are difficult to carry; beneficence is easy and good. In your du’ā’s always say, “O Allāh ﷻ, Treat us with Your beneficence.”
Our Prophet ﷺ tells us that the jinn realized that as mankind, jinns also lie in the name of Allāh ﷻ. Beware! Do not sell your ākhirah for the sake of the temporary dunyā. Seek forgiveness everday for the known and unknown.
If a person lives according to Allāh’s ﷻ way, as Allāh ﷻ commands, he will be at ease in every respect; both physically and spiritually. Don’t have much waswasa about your health but live as Allāh ﷻ orders.
There is reward and punishment; and accordingly there is Paradise and hell. Islām is goodness; shayṭān and his followers are evil. Who destroys his ego and obeys Allāh ﷻ will be in Paradise forever.
Favors and the attribute of reminding of those favors belongs only to Allāh ﷻ. If people do so, it will make them lower. Be grateful to Allāh ﷻ and give without reminding.
What’s Most Important in Life Is Allāh’s ﷻ Pleasure
Days and months are passing by quickly and so life passes by. The most important thing in life is Allāh’s ﷻ pleasure in every affair of yours. This is what will bring you comfort and happiness. Otherwise, it’s worry and anxiety for yourself and your family.
The great miracle of the Qur’ān was revealed in the holy month of Ramaḍān. Qur’ān penetrates people’s hearts and souls. Reading one Juz of the Qur’ān is in our Daily Duties; nothing else can replace it.
Our Prophet ﷺ says, a believer must say good or remain silent. They must evaluate whether what they speak is good or not. Also, it’s the time of silence and staying home. Saying something bad will harm you nowadays.
Our Prophet ﷺ says, whoever provides iftār to someone fasting will attain the same reward of that one. Whoever fasts is lucky; he experiences a beauty that isn’t found elsewhere. There are two joys for the fasting person.
Shayṭān never stops; especially from attacking those not following him. He is the enemy of humanity. Allāh ﷻ says, he is the greatest enemy, don’t befriend him! Stay away from his soldiers! Salvation from him is in holding onto sharī’ah and ṭarīqah.
Who are the luckiest ones? And who are the unlucky ones? Whoever Allāh ﷻ guides, no one can lead astray; and whoever Allāh ﷻ leads astray, no one can guide him. Make shukr to Allāh ﷻ and pray to stay steadfast on this way.
Allāh ﷻ says, Speak the truth; however wants to believe can believe and whoever doesn’t want can not. Muslims are naive and easily deceived; that’s how they destroyed the Ottoman Empire. There is one scale that if you follow you’ll know the truth.
Allāh ﷻ says, “It is My month. No one can question what I do. Ask and I will give you.” It is a blessed month when everything is more rewarded. Do all kinds of goodness and ask from the Most Generous in Ramaḍān.
This āyah shows the purpose of our lives. Our everything must be for the sake of Allāh ﷻ. Pray and don’t think about Khushu’; shayṭāns are trying to make people away from Islām in all kinds of ways.
Our Prophet ﷺ says that the best in everything is the middle state. Don’t be too lax or too strict with your children. Learn to be moderate with them.
Worship in Ramaḍān is rewarded countlessly by Allāh ﷻ. You mustn’t ruin the fasting of the entire month of Ramaḍān just for 5 to 10 minutes. Pay attention to the matter of iftār and imsāk and don’t listen to ignorant ones.
Allāh ﷻ orders us to do good and stay away from evil. This is our duty as people of ṭarīqah. At least, avoid sins for Allāh’s ﷻ mercy to bestow upon you, eventually leading you to doing goodness.
A lot of confusion happened at the beginning of Ramaḍān. To avoid invalidating your fast, conform to the country you are in. Fast with the congregation and celebrate Eid with the congregation.
Shukr to Allāh ﷻ, we were granted to visit the holy ones in Iraq. No one returns empty-handed when visiting holy ones for Allāh’s ﷻ pleasure. Their Himmah continues and their spiritual strength becomes greater after passing away.
Allāh ﷻ created mankind to sin so that He ﷻ forgives them. If one even forgets to repent, he will fall even more into sins and cannot escape the swamp. Asking forgiveness and repentance is one of the greatest favors from Allāh ﷻ.
Gambling is a great disease and affliction. Shayṭān has ruined the Islamic world with it. People come asking du’ā’ for this. Allāh’s ﷻ order is: Don’t help in evil.
Allāh ﷻ shows us in Qur’ān that in ākhirah, unless Allāh ﷻ saves a person, he will be together with the bad friends in hell and regret it. Beware O youth of those friends leading you astray in school or university. Be on the way of Allāh ﷻ to be saved.
Be with the righteous and truthful ones. You can attain Allāh’s ﷻ pleasure through that; which is also important to keep our humanity. Without Allāh’s ﷻ pleasure people fall below the level of animals.
Two we must hasten in: prayer before we miss it and repentance before we die. If you miss prayer, pray it as Qada’ but don’t leave it. Repent everyday to not leave anything for ākhirah.
Waswasah is from shayṭān. It is a terrible disease; beware of it infecting you. Don’t listen to those hypocrites making waswasah about prayer and ablution. Pray quickly and fulfill your obligations and duties.
Be careful. People nowadays only think of pleasure and frivolity. Allāh ﷻ sees everything we do. Don’t waste your time and efforts in unnecessary things; let them be on Allāh’s ﷻ way.
Mawlānā is saddened by what’s happened lately in ṭarīqah. Division saddens our Prophet ﷺ and pleases shayṭān. Weigh your words. Stand in unity against shayṭān. Don’t think you can win hearts by talking.
Tomorrow we will be observing the blessed Laylatul Mi’rāj, in shā’a Llāh. A kāfir might say that it was a dream or so, but a Muslim mustn’t resemble the kāfir. To believe in his ﷺ Mi’rāj is a blessing and virtue.
Our Prophet ﷺ says, in the end of times fitnah is as the darkness of the night. “What is our duty?” they ask. Protect and watch over your family. Shayṭān and his followers are releasing poison from all aspects.
Shukr to Allāh ﷻ, our wish from Mawlānā to become neighbors of Eyüp Sultan has become true. Dominion belongs to Allāh ﷻ. He ﷻ gives it to whomever He ﷻ wants. He ﷻ makes whomever He ﷻ wants Azīz or Dhalīl.
Everything our Prophet ﷺ did is beneficial for all humanity; not only Muslims. Now those supposedly smart Muslims don’t believe anything unless a doctor says it. You must believe everything our Prophet ﷺ says and act upon it; in eating, health, daily life and actions.
Above each knowledge is knowledge superior to it. We mustn’t be surprised by this worldy knowledge of AI. It is nothing and not even a speck of dust compared to Allāh’s ﷻ knowledge. Even comparison is impossible. Benefit is to submit and surrender to Him ﷻ.
Allāh ﷻ has given mankid mind to not be deceived by shayṭān but He ﷻ says, shayṭān leads people astray; whether the unbelievers, people of the book or Muslims. Still, they will be punished for every doing.
It is Allāh’s ﷻ command to speak the truth; whoever wants believes, whoever wants disbelieves. Those who believe win; otherwise they will be in a loss that can’t be compensated. Be with the truth, say the truth and accept the truth.
Who are those Allāh ﷻ described as Rijāl (men)? One of them is a man from the time of Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim, who passed away yesterday. May Allāh ﷻ have mercy on him.
Our Prophet ﷺ says, who seeks people’s approval at the expense of violating His ﷻ order is doomed to failure. Even if you do good, people forget and are ungrateful. Seek Allāh’s ﷻ pleasure always and make it superior over people’s pleasure; or else you’ll become like a trained monkey.
Allāh ﷻ bestows guidance on whomever He ﷻ wants. Guidance is a great gain and benefit for the one guided and the means for this guidance. Mawlānā Shaykh Nāẓim became the means to the guidance of many and their descendants.
Kāfir has committed the greatest sin which is kufr. Nothing is greater than that. But Islām erases everything before it. Man becomes reborn. This is Allāh’s ﷻ haqq judgement; dunyā’s judgement is different.
Our Prophet ﷺ says do good and ask forgiveness for your mistakes. Allāh ﷻ forgives if you do good deeds or ask forgiveness. Sins are not immediately written down by angels. But in ākhirah, they are a misfortune and burden if not forgiven and cleansed.
Qur’ān ‘Aẓīmu sh-Sha’n reached us through the holy tongue of our Prophet ﷺ. He ﷺ left us two: Qur’ān and Sunnah. We are living in the end of times, so beware of confusion.
Dominion belongs to Allāh ﷻ. May we wake up and sleep in a state of total submission to Him ﷻ. Many ignorant ones ask what’s their purpose here, but don’t fathom that they were created. The Gregorian year has no blessedness at all; it’s purpose is merely for calculations and accounting.
