Mawlana Sheikh Mehmed Adil. Translations.

So blessed is Allah, the Best of creators. (23:14) Allah, the Almighty and Exalted, has created everything beautifully. His Name is venerable; therefore, we praise Him with "Tabaraka". There is nothing higher than Him. He, Allah, the Almighty and Exalted, has created the most beautiful of all things. But man is dissatisfied and wants to change it. When he changes it, it does not become better; even if it looks beautiful, it harms the human later on. In this day and age, the End Times, people think: "We can do it better, we make everything more beautiful." But while they claim "I am making it better," they are only making it worse. Then they want to return to the original state, but that is no longer possible. Once you have ruined it, you cannot fix it again; you cannot imitate what Allah has created. Therefore, one should not interfere with it too much. One must be content with what Allah has given, be grateful, and live one's life. It is unnecessary to engage in superfluous things just to "be more beautiful". Of course, there are certain necessities; these may be fulfilled. There may be interventions that are necessary for health, but to do it merely out of vanity is not right. "...and they will change the creation of Allah." (4:119) "They alter what Allah has created." It starts with small things, but now major interventions are being added as well. May Allah protect us—in these End Times, men try to resemble women, and women, men. Apart from that, they try to change their faces and eyes, to make themselves bigger or smaller. They do it, indeed, but the harm will come back to them later. Therefore, one must be content and grateful for what Allah has created. For how long is life, anyway? You will not live forever. Fifty years, a hundred years... No matter how long you live, everyone knows and accepts you as you are. So why do you try to change yourself? These are completely unnecessary things. If you want to change something, change your ego; be a better human being. Do not follow your ego; your ego should obey you. Allah has intended this form and this appearance for us. O ego, be content with this. Correct yourself, your inner self. Perform the operation on your ego. Tear out your bad characteristics and throw them away. If you do not like the body that Allah has created, then it is actually you who must change so that Allah may be pleased with you. Otherwise, the outer appearance is unimportant. It is not the form that counts, but the essence of the person, their humanity. If your humanity is not good, then change that. If you are dissatisfied with Allah's decree, change this state; be content with Him. Be grateful for what Allah has given you; be content. That is what matters. The exterior is not important. The body will eventually turn to dust; nothing of it will remain. But your self, your soul, remains forever; you will truly experience the benefit of a purified ego. May Allah grant people to use their intellect in the way He has given them knowledge, so that they may find peace. Otherwise, people find no rest and are satisfied with nothing. They are never content. May Allah help mankind. May He protect them from the evil of the Devil and the ego.

This blessed month of Allah is approaching. Although all months belong to Allah, He has specially chosen this month, so that it is said: "Rajab is Allah's month, Sha'ban is the month of our Prophet (Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), and Ramadan is the month of the Ummah." These are exceedingly blessed months. We must prepare ourselves, not forget them, and be constantly aware of them. Now the new year is approaching, and one sees how everything has been decorated. As if it were something magnificent... What really changes when the new year comes? Unfortunately, people waste a lot of effort on such useless things. They attach great importance to unnecessary things that do not benefit them or their Hereafter in the slightest. But they do not think at all about what is truly important. Therefore, we constantly remind you: These months are blessed. In the past, even sinners refrained from their sins out of respect for these months. Even alcoholics did not touch the forbidden during these three months. They said: "These months are holy," and paid them respect. Today, however, some who claim to be Muslims confuse people's minds with statements like: "These three months are not needed, this is unnecessary." Yet these are very important matters. Regardless of those who consider it unimportant, we should seize every opportunity; we must not forget these beautiful spiritual gates that Allah has opened for us, and these spiritual feasts. Let us derive benefit from them and show them respect and reverence. Let us thank Allah that He created us as Muslims. He has gifted us the beauties of Islam; let us benefit from them. Other worldly decorations and festivities are in vain. Imitating other people is also not good. Allah has given you the most beautiful thing; why do you want to be like others? Let them be like you. Resembling others, especially the disbelievers, brings nothing good. Everything they do is mere appearance, just an outer shell. All their places, buildings, even their houses of worship are dressed up on the outside, but when one enters... It is the same with their palaces. If one looks at the palaces of their kings, they seem beautiful from the outside. But if one enters them, only oppression and emptiness prevail there. There, one does not find that peace and beauty as exists in Islam. True beauty lies in Islam; therefore, seek peace, beauty, and goodness nowhere else. Allah has already given you all of this. May Allah increase His bounties and grant awareness to the Muslims, insha'Allah.

Thanks be to Allah, the three holy months are approaching. A whole year has passed since then. Days pass, years go by, and life draws to a close. Therefore, we must make use of these spiritual times. These are the provisions one needs for the Hereafter. The people of the Tariqa—that is, those who follow the path of our Prophet—know the value of this time and utilize it. However, people who have not been granted this blessing do not appreciate it. They are unable to derive benefit from anything. As I said: Satan always wants to harm the believer, never to benefit him. Wherever there is something good, he badmouths it. He acts as if he were giving advice and constantly whispers: "Stay away from that, it is useless. If you do that, you will go astray, commit Shirk; that is not Sunnah." Yet Allah, the Mighty and Exalted, has said: "The year has twelve months, four of which are holy months." The first of them is Rajab. Rajab is a blessed month. Sha'ban is the month in which our Prophet (Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) fasted and performed acts of worship the most. And Ramadan is something very special anyway; there is no doubt about its blessings. Therefore, it is very meritorious to honor these three months and to devote oneself more to worship; this opportunity must not be missed. Fasting is observed in these months. Anyone who still has the two-month expiatory fast outstanding should start two days before the beginning of Rajab to complete the sixty-one days. For one of the months, either Rajab or Sha'ban, might have only twenty-nine days. That is why one must begin two days before Rajab. Whoever does not fast or breaks the fast must perform the expiation (Kaffarah) once in their lifetime. Regardless of whether one has not fasted for one day or a hundred: this single expiation suffices for all transgressions. After the expiation, one should strive to make up the missed days. In this way, the expiation is completed at one time of the year. Subsequently, one begins to perform the obligatory make-up fasts. This takes precedence; for as mentioned, the reward in these three months is much greater and more abundant. There are many Hadiths on this subject, but also many followers of Satan who deny them. Do not listen to them. Thanks be to Allah, the way of the Tariqa shows us the most beautiful path. The Tariqa is the path that leads to our Prophet. That means practicing his Sunnah and his deeds, insha'Allah. This also includes spiritual exercise (Riyadah) and seclusion (Khalwa). In the past, there was a forty-day seclusion for the dervishes. But in this day and age, a complete seclusion is not required, as it would be too difficult and hardly sustainable. That could lead to other problems. Therefore, the partial seclusion applies for the forty days: getting up one hour before the morning prayer, praying until sunrise, reading the Quran, and performing Dhikr. Anyone who has missed prayers to make up performs them before the morning prayer. Of course, one also performs all the night prayers. One continues this until Ishraq time. Whoever is fasting, fasts then; whoever is not, eats breakfast then. One can also perform this partial seclusion between the afternoon and evening prayers or between the evening and night prayers. This is done with the intention of spiritual exercise and seclusion, and Allah accepts it. The seclusion that a dervish must perform once in his lifetime is thereby fulfilled. If he does not do it here, the dervish will be forced to do it in the grave. But doing it here is much more meritorious and pleasant. May Allah bless these days and months and count us among those who know their value, insha'Allah. We must thank Allah and be grateful to Him for this gift. May Allah grant us His gifts permanently, insha'Allah.

"And whoever strives, strives only for his own good." (Surah 29:6) The true Jihad (struggle) is directed against our ego (Nafs). For man cannot wage the Jihad solely on his own. Therefore, our Prophet (Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) said, when he returned from war, the Jihad: "We have returned from the lesser Jihad to the greater Jihad." With these words, our Prophet (Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) meant that the fight against the enemy is easier than the fight against one's own ego. Man must not simply give in to everything his ego demands. He must resist it. There are many reasons for this. There are many reasons why a person must resist his ego, fight against it, and wage war against his own self. One of them is: Because it is bad and brings no benefit at all... The Grand Sheikh, Sheikh Abdullah al-Daghestani (may Allah sanctify him), used to say: "It is made from the filth of the Devil." This refers to tobacco; cigarettes and whatever else there is; everything made from it. It is a plant that has not the slightest benefit. It is nothing but harm. By causing all kinds of diseases and bothering the surroundings, one harms oneself and others. That means, it is something that also causes harm to the people in the vicinity. May Allah protect us; whoever becomes addicted to it becomes its slave. It is very difficult to break free from it. Only a few manage to quit. But as for the training of the ego... Jihad is a command of Allah and a distinguishing mark of the believer; it is a duty in Islam. Since we naturally cannot wage the outer Jihad alone right now, we must wage this struggle against ourselves, at least against our ego. We must strive to get away from this vice. Let us free ourselves from it. There is nothing about it that could be described as useful; no person would claim that it has a benefit. Even where it is cultivated, this plant ruins the soil. Years must pass before the soil recovers and can produce something else again. In the past, this dirty plant was grown on thousands, hundreds of thousands of hectares of land. Then they harvested it, stored it, and paid the farmers. A few years later they dumped it into the sea because it was useless. Fortunately, they have stopped doing that. Instead, at least more useful plants were cultivated that serve mankind. This problem has been – thanks be to Allah – eliminated. As said, it is harmful in every respect; even the cultivation is a damage... A pity for the money for diesel, for tools, for warehouses and all the expenses. So much land is wasted just to grow a harmful plant. Fortunately, we got rid of that. Hopefully, people will also be freed from this evil. But strangely enough, the Devil never gets tired, he takes no break. You see how children and teenagers start smoking; as soon as they light a cigarette, they adopt a posture as if they had saved the world. People even smoke in the toilet. The favorite place of smokers is the toilet. Amidst these foul smells, the smoke probably masks them, for it is even dirtier. That is why they are most content there. May Allah protect us. Even if it looks like it doesn't harm some people, it does affect most of them. It certainly causes harm to ninety-nine percent. The one percent that takes no harm may exist. For example, years ago we were performing ablution in a mosque in Cyprus. There was an old man who was smoking. Our late Ahmet Salman Efendi – who himself used to smoke a lot and then quit – He said to the man: "Uncle, don't smoke that, it is harmful. If you don't smoke, you will have a long life." He asked the man: "How old are you?" He said: "I am ninety-five." "Since when have you been smoking?" He said: "I have been smoking since my childhood." Nothing happens to some, but for most it is harmful; and it burdens the surroundings. This foul smell sticks to the man and spreads everywhere. People try to stay away from them. When they come near you, they smell like an old boiler room. So the harms and the badness are countless. May Allah save them. May Allah protect people from falling into this bad state. May Allah help and save us. Many people come to us and say: "Pray for us so that we may get away from this evil." We will pray, Insha'Allah. May Allah free us from this trap of Satan.

And that Allah does not guide the plan of the betrayers. (12:52) Allah, the Mighty and Exalted, is not with the traitors. We are living in a strange world nowadays. People do anything to badmouth one another and cause each other harm. They slander one another. Whoever is slandered becomes frightened. But what is said? "Who actually has reason to be afraid?" It is the one who commits betrayal. That is, he is hiding something and fears it will come to light. In this day and age, they resort to any means to gain an advantage. They spread fear, demand money, threaten, and try to force things. They leave no stone unturned. But as long as a person is pure, he need not be afraid. For Allah is with him. But if he carries within him a wrong he has committed, then fear and worry plague him. He asks himself anxiously: "Have I done something for these people to harass me and want to harm me?" They intimidate you and say: "We want this from you, we want that." If you are pure, know yourself, and are not aware of any guilt, then never be afraid. Let them slander as much as they want; let them do whatever they wish. If you are pure before Allah and keep your heart clean, then seek refuge in Allah. Allah will protect you. But if betrayal is involved, if you carry wickedness within you, then cleanse it. Return to the truth, come to the right path. If you have violated the rights of others, give them their rights back. Otherwise, there is no salvation for you. Even if you get away with it in this world, you will not escape in the Hereafter. For these rights will certainly be claimed. Therefore: If you settle with them while still in this world, you will be saved. Otherwise, you will spend your entire life in fear and worry. Many people are accused without even knowing it: "You are like this, you are like that." And that frightens people. If you have done nothing, have no fault and no sin, do not fear and place your trust in Allah. Even if the whole world turns against you, do not be afraid. But if you have a fault, then correct it. If it concerns rights and claims, set it right. If there is a sin between you and Allah, repent and ask for forgiveness; then Allah will protect you. For the time in which we live is truly a difficult time. There is no humanity left, no conscience; neither decency nor shame remains. Shamelessness knows no bounds. Therefore, guard yourself, and Allah, the Mighty and Exalted, will protect you. Otherwise, your whole life will become difficult; you will fear everything and everyone. You will stand helpless and ask yourself: "What am I to do?" Whoever is with Allah need not fear, by Allah's leave. May Allah protect us all. May Allah save us from the evil and wickedness of our own egos.

[Hadith-i Sharif] Our Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) says: Make the Witr prayer your last prayer of the night. That means the last prayer one performs should be the Witr prayer. [Hadith-i Sharif] The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) spoke: The Witr and Duha prayers were made obligatory for me. But for you, these are not a duty. That means, whoever performs them follows the Sunnah of our Prophet and receives merits. According to our teaching, the Witr prayer is Wajib (necessary) and the Duha prayer is Sunnah. Whoever performs the Duha prayer, it will be reckoned for him as if he had given alms for the whole day. [Hadith-i Sharif] The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) says: I was commanded to perform the Witr prayer and two Rak'ats of Duha. However, this was not made a duty for you; this command applied specifically to our Prophet. For us, it is not Fard, but Witr is Wajib. The Duha prayer is also Sunnah. One can pray from two to twelve Rak'ats in it. [Hadith-i Sharif] The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) says: The Witr prayer belongs to the night. That means this prayer of three Rak'ats is a night prayer. One performs it after the Isha prayer, under no circumstances during the day. [Hadith-i Sharif] The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) says: Verily, Allah, the Exalted, has added another to your five prayers. This prayer is more valuable to you than red camels. Red camels were the most precious possession at that time; our Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) emphasizes that this prayer is even more valuable. Meant is the Witr prayer. Allah has set its time for you between the Isha and the Morning prayer. It can therefore be performed from the Isha prayer until dawn, before the time of Fajr enters. However, it is more meritorious to pray it before going to sleep. For if one intends to pray it after waking up, there is a danger of oversleeping. Therefore, the Witr prayer should form the conclusion of your prayers. [Hadith-i Sharif] The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) says: Verily, Allah is Witr (One) and He loves the odd. Allah is Unique; by "odd", numbers like 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 are meant... Allah loves these. [Hadith-i Sharif] The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) says: Verily, Allah is One and loves the odd. O people of the Quran, perform the Witr prayer. Most prayers are even-numbered units, like two or four Rak'ats. Since Witr is a prayer loved by Allah, it forms the conclusion with three Rak'ats. Among the Shafi'is, the practice is different, but they also know the Witr prayer. They pray two Rak'ats, give the Salam, and then pray a single Rak'a separately. We Hanafis pray three Rak'ats continuously with only one Salam at the end. [Hadith-i Sharif] The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) says: The Witr prayer is a prayer of the night. So not during the day; Witr is performed at night. [Hadith-i Sharif] The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) says: Perform the Witr prayer before the time of the Morning prayer enters. Pray it before the call to Fajr sounds. It is best not to postpone it until morning, but to perform it after the Isha prayer. [Hadith-i Sharif] The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) says: Hasten with the Witr prayer before dawn. For as soon as the time of the Morning prayer has entered, the Witr prayer would have to be made up. [Hadith-i Sharif] The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) says: There are three things that are obligatory for me, but voluntary for you. "Voluntary" here means that what was Fard for the Prophet is Sunnah or Wajib for you. First, the Witr prayer. For the Prophet it was Fard, for us Hanafis it is Wajib. In other schools of law, it is considered an emphasized Sunnah, as it is not classified as Wajib there. Second, the two Rak'ats of the Duha prayer; this is also Nafl (voluntary). Third, the two Rak'ats Sunnah before the Morning prayer. This is also an emphasized Sunnah. One must absolutely perform them. Their status is close to Wajib, one should not omit them. [Hadith-i Sharif] [Hadith-i Sharif] The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) says: The night prayer is performed in units of two Rak'ats each. It is always prayed in pairs. If one of you fears that morning is breaking, he prays a single Rak'a at the end. This makes the total number of Rak'ats previously prayed odd. When we read Hadiths, we naturally cannot simply say: "I read that, so I will do it as I please." The Imams of the schools of law and the scholars have explained the meanings and shown the way. This expression "a last single Rak'a" is practiced by the Shafi'is. In Hanafi Fiqh, the Witr prayer is performed as a continuous unit of three Rak'ats.

The honorable Prophet (Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If you truly rely on Allah, He will provide for you." Just like the birds that fly out hungry in the morning and return full in the evening. Thus He will provide for you if you rely on Him. Of course, even Muslims often lack this trust in Allah. So how is it then for the disbelievers? With them, it does not exist at all. That is why this worldly state is called a great vicious cycle. People nowadays struggle and toil away. They say: "We need more money, it is not enough." One does get money, but in return, even more is taken away again. More is taken than was given. Why? Because man can only do that. But the true Provider is Allah, the Mighty and Sublime. If people were to rely on Him, their money and their provision would suffice them. But no, they rebel and say: "I want it anyway." And when they give it to you: They give you a hundred and take two hundred from you. And everyone knows that. Rely on Allah. Then there will be blessing in the money and it will suffice you. Otherwise, you just spin in circles and end up at the same point – or you fare even worse. Therefore, man will not experience blessing as long as he is not content with what Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, gives him. This is called a "vicious cycle"... I do not know what they call it in modern language, but... You spin in circles and your situation gets worse. You do get something, but your situation deteriorates. Nowadays they call that "inflation" or whatever. And where does that come from? Because one keeps away from the path that Allah has shown. Allah created this world and what is in it. You cannot force more; there is a certain measure. If you cross this limit, you fall back or it gets worse. That is why one must be mindful. Man should be content with what he has. Then he will find blessing in it. Otherwise, you will be constantly deceived. And everyone knows that he is being cheated. They say: "They give us so much, there was a salary increase." But on the other side, prices rise twice as much as the salary. That is why one must be careful. People must know what they are working for, for whom they do it, from whom everything comes, and to whom it returns. May Allah grant us vigilance and bestow blessing upon us, insha'Allah. May Allah preserve us and not diminish our provision, insha'Allah.

Thanks be to Allah, we all belong to the Ummah of Muhammad, Allah's peace and blessings be upon him. This is a great honor, a tremendous blessing. We must appreciate the value of this blessing. For this, we must thank Allah, the Mighty and Exalted. Be grateful that we are part of this religion and this Ummah... Whoever does not love our Prophet is like a devil. The devil wants to lead people astray from the right path and make them like himself. Therefore, he deceives people through their ego and makes them enemies of our Prophet, Allah's peace and blessings be upon him. And even if he does not make them enemies, he at least ensures that they show no respect. Those who are enemies are disbelievers anyway. But those who refuse respect are deceived Muslims. And who are these people? Mostly, they are people who have no Murshid, no Sheikh. Thanks be to Allah, our path is that of the Tariqa, which follows the most beautiful path, Islam. And the best, the purest Tariqa is – thanks be to Allah – the Naqshbandi Tariqa. In all Tariqas, love prevails, and reverence is great. Even if some see it differently: without Tariqa, the true value of our Prophet, Allah's peace and blessings be upon him, is not recognized. Man can hardly grasp his greatness. Those who honor and love him the most are the people of the Tariqa. Even if others love him, the devil sows doubts in their hearts... With whisperings like "He is just a human like you" or similar, he diminishes this love. There must not be the slightest doubt about the greatness, the honor, and the value of our Prophet, Allah's peace and blessings be upon him. Therefore, following his Sunnah is an expression of reverence and appreciation for him. Thanks be to Allah, our Tariqa strives to practice most, indeed even all Sunnahs – everyone according to their capacity. With Allah, performing a single Sunnah weighs as much as the reward of one hundred martyrs. We do not neglect the Sunnahs; we do what we can. Therefore, someone who is in the Tariqa asks: "What shall I do?" You perform your five prayers, make your praises... All that is Sunnah. Through this, worshiping Allah becomes easier. Whoever is not in the Tariqa does it once or twice and then says: "I'd rather leave it." But whoever is in the Tariqa follows this path, thanks be to Allah, until he meets his Creator. That is a beautiful path. Thanks be to Allah, for this we must be grateful; this is the path of our Prophet. Tariqa means "path" anyway. This path is the path of the Prophet, Allah's peace and blessings be upon him. Until we meet him, until we are united with him, we will – insha'Allah – remain eternally on this path. May Allah make us all steadfast. May Allah grant this also to those who are not yet on this path, insha'Allah.

Every soul will taste death; then to Us you will be returned. (29:57) Death is something that everyone must taste. Yet as long as a person lives, they believe they will never die. Therein lies a wisdom of Allah, the Mighty and Exalted. Our Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) says: When the reckoning is over on the Day of Judgment, death will be brought forth and slaughtered like a sacrificial animal in a place between Paradise and Hell. As soon as it is slaughtered, immortality begins—for all eternity. For both the inhabitants of Paradise and those of Hell, there will be no more death. This world is a transient place. Man will certainly taste death on earth, but afterwards, death will be abolished forever. Death will be slaughtered between Paradise and Hell; after that, it will exist no more. Death belongs to this world. In the Hereafter, in Paradise, however... Now, people sometimes ask themselves: "What are we supposed to do there forever?" Yet you yourself believe, as long as you are alive, that you will never die. Even though hardship and suffering are so great here, man still does not want to die and suppresses the thought of death. In the Hereafter, however, it is different. The conditions of this world do not prevail there. When one enters Paradise and drinks from the Kawthar Pool of our Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), grief, sorrow, and all the evil of this world leave the person. Neither envy nor any bad thought remains within the person. There is no longer anyone who inflicts suffering, no more fear—nothing bad remains. Therefore, that state—the state of the Hereafter and of Paradise—cannot be compared with this world. There are even people who consider themselves scholars, who deny eternity and ask: "What are we supposed to do there?" But the promise of Allah, the Mighty and Exalted, is true. In Paradise, one lives eternally in peace and beauty. There are no worries there like: "What will happen tomorrow? Will I get a raise? How much money will I earn? What will I live on?" Bliss prevails there, and one is eternally united with one's loved ones. There is no more separation from loved ones. There are no worries, sorrow, or fears like: "I have to part ways," "he has grown old and is dying," "he is sick," "he had an accident," "they were attacked," or "someone harmed them." Therefore, man should work for the Hereafter, so that... This world is transient. But for the believer, everything is of benefit—both the hardship and the ease. For the non-believer, however, this has no benefit, no matter how pleasant his life is; the true gain lies in the Hereafter. May Allah not lead us away from the faith. These misguided people, who pose as scholars, lead the people astray. They lead innocent people and children away from the right path. They destroy their Hereafter. They are lost forever—may Allah protect us. May Allah protect us from evil. May He strengthen our faith, Insha'Allah.

Our Prophet (Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) says: "He who repents of his sins is like one who has never sinned." This means: If someone repents, Allah, the Mighty and Exalted, accepts this repentance. Allah created man in such a way that he is prone to mistakes and sins; for He wants him to repent. If someone says: "I have sinned, I will not be forgiven anyway, so I will continue," then he is making a great mistake. Man sins and subsequently repents, and Allah, the Mighty and Exalted, forgives this sin. The most important thing is to repent and ask for forgiveness; this is a mercy from Allah for His servants. The door of repentance is open. Only when the Last Day approaches in the End Times does this door close; then no more repentance will be accepted. At that time, sins will meet their just punishment. But until that time comes, the door of repentance stands wide open. Therefore, it is a great blessing to ask Allah for forgiveness daily for our committed sins, mistakes, and shortcomings. Thanks be to Allah; in His great goodness, He forgives us our sins through His mercy and grace. May Allah forgive us all. For there is no human who is free from sin, whether through small or large mistakes. The Prophets alone are flawless. Our last Prophet (Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) is the last human who is completely free of sin and error. After him, every human has faults and sins. But whoever repents and asks for forgiveness, Allah forgives him. May Allah forgive our mistakes and sins, Insha'Allah.
