Mawlana Sheikh Mehmed Adil. Translations.

Our Prophet, peace be upon him, teaches us: The community of Muslims is like one body. If one part of the body hurts, then the whole body suffers with it. One feels this pain everywhere, as our Prophet, peace be upon him, explains. It is the same with the Muslims. No matter where in the world they are – when something happens, they share the sorrow. And if there is a reason for joy, they share that too. Thanks be to Allah, Muslims are experiencing some relief these days. The whole community rejoices that some places have been freed from oppression. For the hardship was great, the oppression severe. This liberation now fills all Muslims with joy. A Muslim is unique in this regard. When something happens to non-Muslims, they often think: "That's none of our business, luckily we are not affected." Muslims, on the other hand – wherever they live – jointly share the joy over every relief. And they suffer with them when injustice occurs somewhere. This is one of the most beautiful signs that Islam gives to humanity – proof that it is the true religion. Other religions that are not true or have been falsified even see it as an advantage when humanity suffers. They feel satisfaction from it. Yet, every injustice ultimately harms all of humanity. Not just the Muslims. Islam stands for the opposite. It stands for mercy and kindness towards all people. That is why Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, has gifted humanity this religion – so that they can find peace both in this life and in the hereafter. But Satan wants to prevent this. Indeed, Satan wants to incite conflict and hatred among you. (5:91) His goal is to sow discord, hatred, and evil. His followers follow this path. The followers of Allah, on the other hand, spread good. Some try to deceive people by claiming: "Islam only brings misfortune." They say: "Islam only knows war." Yes, Islam has fought – but to liberate people from evil. To put a stop to injustice. Islam, our Prophet, peace be upon him, fought at Allah's command to liberate people from oppressors and to spread justice and kindness. And Islam, which he spread, became a light for humanity. He brought blessings to people. He enriched their lives with all good things. We should never forget that. For that, we must be thankful to Allah. Thankful that He has guided us to this wonderful religion. Thanks be to Allah - a thousandfold, a millionfold!

Woe to those who give less [than due], Allah, the Exalted and Mighty, turns to those who commit fraud in business dealings: In Hellfire there is a valley called Wayl. There, those who cheat in trade and deceive people will be punished. Whoever shows no mercy in this world and deceives only for profit, whoever deceives others and cheats with scales and measures, Hell awaits them in the Hereafter. Their fraudulent gain brings them no advantage whatsoever. We mention this because people have completely drifted off course in the last two or three years. They only think about money, without asking whether it is halal or haram. Whether the poor get anything or not, they don't care. The main thing is that I make a profit. The state raises prices, and they immediately raise prices drastically. The state controls and checks for fraud, but we see that it continues unabated. Meat is mixed with all sorts of things, oil is diluted with foreign substances. Everything is turning into the opposite. Everything is getting out of control. People have completely strayed from the path. It doesn't bother them; they fear neither Allah nor are they ashamed before people or the state. They are simply running after their desires. They believe they are winning in this way. Allah, the Exalted and Mighty, however, says: “No!” What you acquire unlawfully will be your undoing. It is better to earn little, but with blessing. A lot of money that is not halal will not benefit you. It only harms you. You earn something, but you get sick. Even if you spend a hundred or a thousand times as much, you cannot recover and have no benefit from it. Therefore, be mindful. Do not follow your greed. They have ruined people. The whole world is ruined. This is the work of the Devil. Whoever acts like this is making common cause with him. Around the globe, there seems to be hardly any conscience left. May Allah help the poor and needy. May you eat what is righteous, which gives strength to your faith and your body. Otherwise, faith, health, blessing, and inner peace dwindle. Whoever thinks he can deceive others and supposedly gain a lot is the real fool. A true fool. A blockhead. It has to be said so clearly because otherwise they won't understand it. Here you already pay three times as much for the same goods, elsewhere even five times as much. Previously the goods were unbranded, today you pay ten times as much for the brand name. That is completely exaggerated! May Allah help and grant these people insight, so that they understand: Even if you earn little, but it is blessed, it is enough for you and your family. Otherwise, you will also lose your health, and your children will turn against you. Children who are nourished by forbidden gain have no blessing. That is why drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, and other addictions are increasingly on the rise. Where does this come from? Precisely from this haram food and from the lack of blessing. May Allah preserve us. May Allah help the Muslims. And may Allah especially help the children, inshaAllah.

Blessed be your month of Shaban today. About this month, our Prophet says: "It is my month." Shaban-i Sharif is the month of our Prophet. What a blessed month! A month full of blessings. Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, created all of existence in honor of our Prophet, peace be upon him. As a gift to him. The rank of our Prophet is exalted. Whoever does not honor him harms himself. He prepares torment for himself. The more you honor our Prophet, peace be upon him, the more benefit it brings you. The mercy of our Prophet extends to the entire Ummah. Our Prophet, peace be upon him, first invited his family to Islam. They all gathered in one place. He proclaimed the message to them. Almost all of them accepted it. But his uncle Abu Lahab stood up and spoke hateful words. He prevented everyone from believing in our Prophet, peace be upon him. Although many became Muslims afterwards, Abu Lahab did not. Allah, the Almighty, declared in the Holy Quran that Hellfire is destined for him. This shows: Whoever does not honor and respect our Prophet, his end will be bad. May Allah protect us from that. With this, Allah has set a clear sign for mankind. Even if it is his own uncle - whoever denies our Prophet, peace be upon him, reverence, Hellfire is certain for him. So that people recognize this truth, Allah, the Almighty, shows in His eternal book, the Holy Quran, the disastrous consequence of Abu Lahab's actions. Abu Lahab incessantly caused harm. He kept people away from good. Because he kept them from good deeds and prevented them from following the Prophet and thereby obtaining blessings, he will remain in this state until the Day of Judgment and beyond. Today, too, it applies: Whether Muslim or non-believer - whoever does not honor our Prophet, peace be upon him, his faith is void. Such a person is unbelieving. One may profess with the lips "I am a Muslim," but without true faith in the heart. In our time, Satan tempts people with this very temptation. He whispers: "Do not honor the Prophet." He sows doubts: "He is just a man like you, Allah will punish you for it." He falsely warns: "You will become idolaters and fall away from the faith." This is nothing but a trick of Satan. His goal is to rob Muslims of their faith. May Allah protect us from such deception. Let us do everything in our power in this blessed month to honor the Prophet. Let us abundantly send blessings, for our Prophet, peace be upon him, promises: "Whoever sends blessings upon me, I will return them to him." "To everyone who greets me, I send my greeting back," these are the words of our Prophet, peace be upon him. What a precious blessing is bestowed upon us with this! We should not leave this grace unused. Let us offer praises and blessings upon the Prophet to the best of our ability, inshaAllah. May Allah bless this month. May this month guide us to good. May this month strengthen our faith and deepen our love for the Prophet. The stronger this love becomes, the richer our blessings will be. May Allah grant us special blessings in this month.

And mankind was created weak. (4:28) Allah, the Exalted, says: Man was created weak. If you consider all creatures, man is physically the weakest of all. He is so weak that he is even helplessly exposed to insects and reptiles. Allah, the Exalted, deliberately created him so. Despite his weakness, he opposes everyone and tries to subjugate others. Man becomes wise when he recognizes his limitations. Through insight he gains strength. With the help of Allah, the Exalted, he becomes strong. Alone he is weak. Even if the whole world belonged to him, he could do nothing more once his last breath falls. Therefore, man should recognize his weakness. I am a scholar, a sheikh, a sultan, a minister, a president – whatever. Yet none of them possess true strength. True strength comes only from Allah, the Exalted. For this reason, we accept our weakness and implore Allah for assistance. We ask Him for the strength to defeat our own ego, for it is our greatest enemy. The ego leads man to do the worst things. If he does not defeat it, he remains trapped under its tyranny. History shows us that people who were unjust for 60, 70 years or even hundreds of years have ultimately disappeared. Where are they now, after thousands of years? They have achieved nothing. Only those who were connected with Allah, the Exalted, have been successful. Their names were elevated, their status with Allah was elevated. Many forget themselves and imagine themselves to be strong. They have bombs, cannons, weapons, money and wealth. They think that their strength lies in that. But there is no real strength in that. All of this happens only at Allah's command. At the right time, none of it will work anymore. Nothing happens without His permission. Nothing happens without Allah's will. Therefore, Allah, the Exalted, says: Man was created weak. Whoever believes his strength comes from something else will experience how it abruptly crumbles. He remains left alone. In the end, he is left empty-handed. May Allah protect us. May we be with Allah. Let us come to the realization of our weakness. We are weak servants of Allah. May Allah assist us all, inshaAllah.

Say, "Mock [as you wish]; indeed, Allah will bring forth that which you are afraid of." (9:64) Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, says: "They mock." They often make fun of and disapprove of those who invite to Allah. They consider themselves to be clever and perfect people. They consider those who are on Allah's path to be foolish and unreasonable. They ridicule them. Allah says: "Mock! Then I will confront you with what you made fun of." Indeed, Allah will bring forth that which you are afraid of. (9:64) Allah will teach a lesson to those who mock the truth. This may happen in this world as well as in the Hereafter. He who considers himself infallible and judges others is usually himself in error. In the end, the shame falls back on himself. It would be better for the mockers and those who oppress the believers to show repentance while still in this world. If they do not do this, it will end badly for them. Allah forgives those who repent, but whoever persists in sin will be humiliated in this world and the Hereafter. Allah will certainly call everyone to account. Everything is in the hand of Allah. Allah, the Exalted, is merciful. He forgives those who repent of their deeds. But whoever does not show repentance will find his downfall already in this world. And in the Hereafter, great loss awaits him. This is something to pay attention to. When people are given something, they immediately think the whole world belongs to them. Others are worthless and contemptible. They think mockery is appropriate. One must beware of this. Everyone makes mistakes. Everyone can say something thoughtless, but whoever repents afterwards and asks for forgiveness, Allah will certainly forgive him. This is of great importance. The God-fearing have always been mocked. Prophets, their communities, and believers have been mocked and ridiculed by disbelievers and hypocrites. Their state and their downfall are reported in the sublime Quran and history books. No mocker has ever achieved true gain. Those who made fun of the truth always ended in ruin. They passed into the Hereafter without any gain. May Allah protect us from that. May Allah preserve us. In this time, they are seducing young and old alike. May Allah protect us all - even them - from that. For this is a dangerous state.

Allah is the Creator of all things, and He is, over all things, Disposer of affairs. (39:62) Adab is the most important teaching of the Tariqa. Whoever enters the Tariqa learns adab. To whom is adab due first and foremost? To Allah, the Exalted and Majestic! Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, is the Creator of all things. It is He who gives life to everything and everyone: to people, animals, all creatures. The entire universe was created by His power. Everything belongs to Him. Al-mulku lillah. The owner of all dominion is Allah, the Exalted and Majestic. Therefore, good adab in the Tariqa means acknowledging that everything that happens comes from Allah. Not to contradict Him. Contradiction is the work of the devil. And those who follow his path also contradict. They contradict everything. The good as well as the bad. Nothing is right for them. They contradict everything. Some even interfere in Allah's affairs. Those who do not follow the Tariqa ask: "How can Allah allow so much oppression, why doesn't He do anything about it?" The world is not a paradise. The world is a place of testing. Tests are the course of things in this world. Everything possible will happen, may Allah protect us. The believer pleads with Allah that He may protect him. There is no other way. You can contradict as much as you want. What is destined for you can only be averted through Allah's mercy; you should pray that Allah protects you. Opposing Allah brings nothing. Do not trust that "this one will do better" or "that one will do worse". Trust only in Allah, the Exalted and Majestic. It is Allah's power and His decree. Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, does everything. It is Allah who has the power over everything. He makes the difficult easy. Allah protects from every kind of evil. It is Allah who does everything - that is the basis of the Tariqa. Those who do not follow the Tariqa, even if they are Muslims, contradict Allah. They do this and that. But it is of no use. Therefore, you must accept what Allah has decreed. With adab, you should plead to Allah. We are weak servants. Do not test us, O Allah! This is a world of testing. Treat us with Your grace and kindness. Make the tests and difficulties easy. May we not have tests, O Allah! That is what we should pray for, inshaAllah. May Allah help us all.

This night is a blessed night. May Allah the Exalted grant us the blessings of this night. May Allah strengthen our faith. This night is of particular significance. For humanity and Islam, it is an extraordinary, an overwhelming night. On this night, our Prophet - peace be upon him - ascended from the earth through the heavens to the Divine Throne. This demonstrates his exalted position. The Prophet - peace be upon him - holds a high rank. This night is truly blessed. Prayers are answered. We should be aware that the acts of worship on this night hold special significance, and we should strive to pray as much as possible. It is called Ihya-ul-Layl. That means staying awake the whole night, which is not an easy task. Everyone should act according to their abilities. After the prayers, before going to sleep, one should perform two units of prayer and go to sleep with ritual ablution. Then, at the time of the Tahajjud prayer, wake up early, pray, perform acts of worship, and make supplications. These supplications will certainly be answered. Praised be Allah, who created us as believers. We will ask for the strengthening of our faith. The most important thing is to ask for forgiveness and mercy. We will implore Allah for forgiveness and grace. Health and well-being. Let us pray that we remain in good health – this is the greatest gift. This is the recommendation of our Prophet - peace be upon him. Whoever follows this advice wins. Whoever neglects it misses out on much blessing. Allah did not grant it to him at this time. This blessed night is a test of faith. The true believer trusts everything that the Prophet has conveyed. He believes in the unseen. The unseen encompasses all that remains hidden from our eyes. Our Prophet proclaimed the night and heavenly journey, and Allah the Exalted revealed it to us through him. We believe in it and trust in it, thanks be to Allah. With whom is true faith found? With those who follow the path of the Prophet - peace be upon him. With those who are faithful to the Sunnah. With those who obey his commandments. Whoever turns away from the Prophet - peace be upon him - goes astray. Their faith is shaken and threatened to be lost. They become like idolaters. When the idolaters learned of the Prophet's ascension - peace be upon him - they rejected it as a lie. They accused him of falsehood. Even today, there are people who pretend to be Muslims. They manipulate the faith of the people. Some claim it was just a dream. Others deny it completely. They speak neither of a dream nor of anything else. Such a group is making itself noticeable. Satan has led them astray. He has taken away their faith; they have become disbelievers. Without faith, one also leaves the religion - may Allah protect us from that. This is a dangerous development. For Allah the Exalted, nothing is impossible. Allah the Exalted, who created you from nothing, accomplishes what He wills. According to His will, He can bring you to the highest or lowest place in an instant. Therefore, those who cause others to doubt and play with their faith are ignorant and blinded. Even some who consider themselves particularly clever and educated fall into this doubt. They fall into Satan's trap. May Allah protect us from that – there is hardly any escape from this situation. Only a few find their way back. Therefore, one must stay away from such people. One should avoid those who do not show due respect to the Prophet - peace be upon him. You don't even need to speak with them. For they carry poison within them. This poison will - Allah protect us - poison you and plunge you into ruin. You will die. That is, you will die spiritually, and there will be no salvation in the hereafter. May Allah preserve us. May Allah continue the blessings of this day upon us. On this momentous night, our Prophet - peace be upon him - traversed all spheres. "How can that be?" they ask - with Allah, time and space are in His hand. Both are His creation. Allah the Exalted disposes of them according to His will. Thus, on that night, our Prophet saw the entire Paradise, Hell, the highest Throne within two hours, and appeared before Allah the Exalted. In this short span, Allah stretched time. Which time? Time stood still. Allah the Exalted makes time stand still. Even if a hundred years passed. Like a blink of an eye, like this moment. The human mind can comprehend some things. Others are beyond its grasp. The Prophet's night journey and ascension - peace be upon him - still lie within the realm of the understandable. Not beyond the limits. Beyond the limits, there is much more. There are realms without limits. The wisdom of Allah the Exalted knows no limits. Limits are set. But Allah's wisdom is limitless. The night journey and ascension is therefore a matter of faith of simple clarity. If academics and theologians cannot believe this, it testifies to their limited insight. May Allah grant them faith and understanding. https://mawlanatranslated.com/

Allah the Almighty has given His special blessing to certain places and times. Allah has bestowed these upon the community of Muhammad and all people. Allah has given these beautiful places and times to people so that they may benefit from them. Observing these special times and visiting these blessed places benefits both the body and the soul. Even if it may be physically strenuous, it brings relief and beauty to the soul and also benefits the body. Services bound by time or place include prayer, fasting, Hajj, and Umrah... The Hajj takes place only once a year. In the past, the Hajj was only possible for a few. The obstacles were of a different nature back then. Today, we face different challenges. For various reasons, it is not granted to everyone. Therein lies Allah's unfathomable wisdom. This cannot be questioned. In the past, people couldn't simply set off for Umrah. They would perform Hajj and then Umrah afterward. They could only undertake the Hajj once in their lifetime. Today, things are different, especially the Umrah has become much more accessible. Anyone who wants to can participate. It is important to perform the Hajj before the Umrah. "We are on the waiting list." "It hasn't worked out yet," people say. "Then let's do Umrah in the meantime," they think. But if one spends the money saved for Hajj on Umrah and then cannot take their Hajj spot, that is not right. However, if one has set aside sufficient funds for Hajj, there is nothing standing in the way of Umrah. Hajj should remain the primary intention. Year after year, Allah credits one with this good intention. Some have been waiting for their Hajj opportunity for 14 years. Each year, they hope anew: "This time it will work out." Their intention is sincere, and even if it doesn't work out, Allah rewards them for it. They receive this reward year after year until the Hajj is made possible for them. If you have set aside the money for Hajj and are on the waiting list, you can certainly undertake an Umrah, provided you can afford it. This allows you to visit both the Prophet's grave and the Kaaba. Seeing these holy places with your own eyes and feeling their special power is a unique experience of immeasurable value. At the Kaaba, every act of worship is rewarded a hundred thousandfold. Every unit of prayer counts as a hundred thousand, every prayer as a hundred thousand prayers. All of this benefits the believers. However, whoever performs Umrah before Hajj and then, for financial reasons, cannot perform Hajj when the opportunity arises, misses out on a great blessing. Alhamdulillah, our sister Hajjah Rukiyyah Sultan, Haji Mehmed Nazim, and Sheikh Bahauddin can undertake the Umrah today through Allah's grace. With Allah's blessing, everything will be fine. Such places bring true benefit to people. To say, "I was in London, Paris, or elsewhere" has no value. Trips that are made for worldly purposes bring no benefit in the hereafter. Only the blessed places are of lasting value. May Allah grant it to us and accept it. May the blessing and reward of these journeys be granted to us all, inshaAllah. May Allah grant us all the Hajj, especially those who have never been there.

We thank Allah that we are in the blessed month of Rajab, which is now gradually drawing to a close. It is one of the sacred Haram months. At the beginning, there is a blessed night. And at the end, there is a blessed night. At the beginning of this month is the Regaib Night. And at its end is the Night of Isra and Mi'raj - an undeniable truth. Whoever, as a Muslim, denies the Prophet's journey to the heavens forfeits his faith. Allah himself has anchored this in the middle of the Quran to dispel any doubt. Isra means night journey. The Archangel Gabriel brought the holy steed Burak to Mecca, where the night journey began. There is no comparable being like the steed Burak on Earth. With a single step, it could travel from one place to another in a minute. During the journey, our Prophet, may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him, stopped at five holy places. At each, he prayed two rakats. Before ascending to heaven, he finally reached Jerusalem. There, he prayed with the prophets and then ascended to the Mi'raj. Mi'raj means ascension. He ascended to heaven. Allah, the Exalted, elevated our Prophet to the highest level that a human can reach. Our Prophet was already exalted, but Allah also physically elevated him to the highest level so that people could see it, and this honor was bestowed upon our Prophet, may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him. Allah, the Exalted, received and spoke to our Prophet in a way that we cannot comprehend. This manifestation of the Mi'raj was not granted to anyone except our Prophet. Why do we say that? Some people claim, in order to weaken the faith of Muslims, that Isra and Mi'raj were just a dream. And supposedly, scholars and educated people say this. University graduates. Doctors, people with master's degrees. People with higher education. Such people say that. "It was just a dream," they say. Dreaming is something common that everyone does. If it had only been a dream, where would the miracle be in that? Their empty words have no value. What matters is the truth. Belief in the miracles of our Prophet and in the unseen is one of our most important principles of faith. Belief in the unseen means believing in what we do not see. People did not see it and said: 'That is impossible.' How can one travel a journey that takes forty days in one night? Even before they thought about the ascension to heaven, they could not even grasp the earthly distances. Nowadays, this distance can be covered effortlessly. And behold: What was once hidden is now clear before us. Believing in the ascension to heaven is a condition of our faith. Allah, the Exalted, elevated his last and most beloved Prophet, may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him, to the highest level, into his own presence. In this place, there are no concepts of time and space. Only Allah alone knows what this encounter was like. We believe in that. May Allah protect us from disbelief in it. Whoever denies this loses both his faith and his religion. The blessed night of Isra and Mi'raj is a blessed night. InshaAllah, we will experience it in two days. May its blessings be upon us. The acts of worship on this blessed night bring us closer to Allah, the Exalted. These blessed nights are nights given to us by Allah, the Exalted, in honor of our Prophet. They are beautiful nights. Through this night, our faith becomes even stronger. Allah showed our Prophet things that humanity would only be able to see after millions of years in space and time. Our Prophet, may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him, reached all these places and wonderful things in two hours and returned to deliver this glad tidings to the people. The people who accept the glad tidings are believers. Those who do not accept it are disbelievers. The disbelievers mocked this and rejoiced. They said that from now on, no one could follow this man anymore. Allah forbid! Because they did not accept his prophethood, they either denied him or accused him with all sorts of inappropriate words. When they told our Prophet's closest friend, Abu Bakr, he asked: 'Really? Did he say it himself with his blessed mouth?' Mockingly, they said that he had said it. When they said: "Not from anyone else, we heard it directly from him", Abu Bakr replied: "Then I confirm it as well." They were amazed. They ran away. This shows how close Abu Bakr was to our Prophet. So close that during Allah's command 'come closer,' Abu Bakr's voice was heard. As a gift and intimacy from Allah, because he was his closest friend, Allah let our Prophet, may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him, hear his voice. These things show us what beauties Allah has given us and how valuable it is to belong to the community of Muhammad. Even in this blessed moment, our Prophet thought again about his community. He asked Allah, the Exalted, for forgiveness for us, his "Umma." He asked Allah, the Exalted, for forgiveness. We thank Allah a million times over for belonging to his community. May Allah let us dwell in His presence in Paradise, inshaAllah. For the sake of the honor of these beautiful days, inshaAllah.
