Mawlana Sheikh Mehmed Adil. Translations.

May Allah bless this eid and bring goodness to everyone. May Allah accept your prayers and devotion. During these days, we celebrate for Allah's pleasure and to show gratitude for His many blessings. May Allah help us all. For Muslims everywhere, no matter what hardships they face or how limited their circumstances, this eid remains a blessing. It is truly a gift from Allah. Allah looks upon all believers with mercy and divine protection. He rewards each and every one of them. Those who endure difficulties with patience will surely receive even greater rewards. Today, people in many places suffer from oppression and hardship. They've lost their homes and homelands. Yet during the eid, they still find joy in this blessing that Allah has bestowed upon them. Even in difficult circumstances, they give thanks for Allah's favor and blessings. And the greatest blessing of all is faith. Even if the world falls apart around you, as long as you have faith, nothing else matters. If you owned the entire world but had no faith, it would be worthless. So may Allah bless this eid for everyone. May Allah increase goodness, bring positive outcomes, and send protection. insha'Allah, may future eids be even more joyous. In the past, muezzins would give a special eid call, a eid sela. They would recite beautiful words. There are some lovely sayings: Laysa al-'idu man labisa jadid, innama al-'idu man khafa al-wa'id. This means: the eid is not for those who wear new clothes. The eid is for those who fear Allah. The true eid belongs to those who revere Allah. Because that's what the eid is really about. Allah looks upon such people with favor. With compassion. With approval for those who fear Him. In the past, people would wear new clothes during eids. Now children aren't satisfied with just clothing. They want something more. In those days, clothes and shoes would last from one eid to the next. They'd be worn until they were completely worn out. So when the eid came, people would rejoice in having new clothes. That's the context of that saying. But even that isn't what matters most. What's truly important is fearing Allah and following His path. That is the real eid. eids are spiritual seasons. They are gifts from Almighty Allah. During these eids, we should visit relatives and also visit the graves of our departed loved ones to pray for them. insha'Allah, on the morning of the eid, there is a special prayer of great wisdom. Many people who never pray at other times... At least pray once from one eid to the next. Even that has value. This eid brings complete goodness and beauty to Muslims in every way. It contains everything we need. In the past, there were eid grounds where children would play. When the eid arrived, they would go there to enjoy themselves. All kinds of entertainment would be provided for children. Now there aren't as many of these places left. Because nowadays, children have countless things to play with every day. Even if eids don't bring the same joy they did in the old days, they still bring joy in Allah's presence. Even without toys, Allah places that special beauty in people's hearts during eids. This doesn't happen with any other celebration. Not birthdays, not log eids, fire eids, or any other celebration - none of them matter as much. These beautiful eids from Allah bring people both physical and spiritual relief and goodness. May Allah bless them. May they guide people to the right path, insha'Allah.

كُلُّ ٱمۡرِيِٕۭ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِينٞ (52:21) In this verse, Allah has decreed: everyone is responsible for their own actions. This is why Islam is a religion of tolerance. A Muslim is tolerant. They strive to fulfill Allah's commands. They are responsible for themselves, not for others. They will stay on the right path themselves. They also guide others. Whoever wishes to accept it, accepts it. Whoever doesn't, doesn't. As we said, Islam is a religion of tolerance. It doesn't harm anyone. It endures what it sees, acknowledging "this is the world." If something good happens, it gives thanks to Allah. If something isn't good, it faces it with tolerance. You cannot force people to do things. If you force your views on others, conflicts arise and you create bigger problems. Therefore, you'll say "what can we do, this is the extent of their understanding." "This person did this because that's all they understand from it. Nothing can be done if they don't comprehend more." There's nothing we can do. We've given them advice. If they want to learn something, we can teach them. But if they don't want to, so be it. So don't obsess over them, don't exhaust yourself. They have their own path, and you have yours. Continue on your journey, don't stop. Stopping is pointless... there are already enough problems in the world, enough responsibilities, enough troubles and hardships. Don't add another burden to your mind. Whatever anyone does, whether this one did that or that one did this... Don't give importance to these things. Meet them with tolerance. Say "this is how they are, Allah has given them this understanding." If they don't behave properly, don't stoop to their level. Don't think like they think. Don't perceive as they perceive. What you should understand is what Allah Almighty has explained, what our Prophet, peace be upon him, has taught. All 124 thousand Prophets were sent to reveal these truths. Don't get distracted by what ignorant people do, neglecting those essential truths. Stay away. If you encounter it, be tolerant. That is, don't give it any significance. Don't make it a problem for yourself. These are trivial matters. They exist to sever your connection with Allah Almighty. If you don't give them importance, you will grow closer to Allah. Of course, practicing this isn't easy, but it comes gradually - you endure a little at first, then more, and eventually even more. Humans develop through learning. With experience, your endurance grows each time. You overcome challenges more easily as you face them. That's why transformation doesn't happen all at once. It happens step by step, insha'Allah. Therefore, one must be mindful. A believer needs to pay special attention to this matter. A believer is one who follows a spiritual path, who has entered that path to discipline their ego. This discipline of the ego is also tolerance. It means tolerating people. You should speak according to each person's level of understanding, addressing everyone appropriately. May Allah grant ease, insha'Allah. May He instill this tolerance in our hearts.

Allah Almighty says in the noble verse: "Complete the prescribed period and glorify Allah for having guided you." (2:185) This means the month of Ramadan has a specific timeframe. Allah Almighty commands us to complete it. After completing it, we celebrate Eid. On Eid, we recite glorifications and declarations of faith. Muslims have two Eids. In this world, there are two Eids for us. The first is Eid al-Fitr, the second is Eid al-Adha. Other celebrations were invented that diminish the value of these sacred Eids. There are many other holidays celebrated around the world. Our ancestors expressed this beautifully. They had a wonderful saying: "Every day is Eid for a fool," they said. Meaning someone without mindfulness treats every day like Eid, not recognizing its true value. The celebrations that deserve to be called Eid are those Allah Almighty has granted us. And these are Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. Honoring these occasions means earning Allah's pleasure. Disrespecting them harms a person. Even if there's no material harm, there is spiritual damage in not respecting what Allah Almighty has bestowed upon us. What should be valued is only what Allah Almighty wants and loves. That is what deserves our reverence. Its value is immense. The significance of Eid is recognized both in this world and the hereafter. Unfortunately, many people today value nothing. Nothing seems to have worth anymore. Neither money, nor gold, nor words, nor honor, nor goodness... In the eyes of many, nothing holds value anymore. They call it "inflation." Everything has been devalued. No value remains. Just thirty years ago, with one piece of gold, a person could live comfortably for a month. Now, one can't even live for a week on that. People barely make it through the day. Therefore, while nothing in this world holds lasting value, we must recognize the value of the hereafter to see its benefit. Thanks to Allah, everyone has experienced these beautiful days. Believers have enjoyed these blessed times. It was wonderful for those who believe, who are Muslim and perform their worship. Whatever difficulties existed had little effect. Allah covers all hardships due to the blessings and beauty of Ramadan. But there is one condition. There is never comfort or goodness for those who oppose Islam. People who are enemies of Allah, who wage war against Allah, will never find happiness. In Islam, there is peace, happiness, and beauty. Every kind of goodness exists in Islam. Islam is Allah Almighty's gift to humanity. Islam is guidance and a blessing. Therefore, those who follow Islam, who value Islam, find true worth. As we said, this Ramadan, thanks to Allah, is crowned with Eid at its conclusion. Indeed, every day was like Eid, praise be to Allah. Everyone feels Allah's blessings, manifestations, and beauties in their heart. Even if someone struggles during the day, there is peace and beauty within. There is relief inside the person; they feel comfort. They feel no evil. They sense nothing bad inside. And in the evening, as our Prophet, peace be upon him, said, no one can experience that unique joy and happiness of a believer. Those who don't fast can never find this joy. May Allah bless it. These days have now passed. May Allah grant us to see next year as well, insha'Allah. And may we celebrate with Muslims worldwide together with Mahdi, peace be upon him, insha'Allah. We have hope. Because the world isn't getting better; it's getting worse. The one who will save the world is Mahdi, peace be upon him, whom our Prophet, peace be upon him, has promised would come. We are waiting for him, insha'Allah. May Allah send him soon, insha'Allah.

Say, "If you love Allah, then follow me, Allah will love you and forgive your sins. And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful." (3:31) The rank of our Prophet, peace be upon him, is the highest with Allah. If you love Allah, the Almighty and Exalted, the Holy Quran teaches us, then follow our Prophet, peace be upon him. Follow his path. If you follow his path, Allah will love you. The most important goal in our lives should be that Allah loves us. When Allah loves us, everything is easy, everything is good. There is nothing more beautiful than that. For Allah to love you, it is important to follow the path of our Prophet, to love him, to honor him, and to approach him with respect. Indeed, the most beloved person is our Prophet, peace be upon him. When you look at non-Muslims, they claim to love this and that, but they do not know the kind of love and affection that we find in Islam. They only have a love that flatters their ego. The love in Islam, on the other hand, arises by overcoming one's ego and freeing oneself from it. That is why our Prophet says: "I return the greeting to the one who sends blessings upon me." That is a great mercy. You express blessings, and our Prophet answers you, sends his greeting back to you. Can there be anything more beautiful? Therefore, the most beloved person in the world is our Prophet, peace be upon him. Besides our Prophet, there is no person who should be truly loved. For those who follow his path are loved, and those who do not walk on his path are not loved. This is a gift that Allah has placed in the souls of people. It is a spiritual and intellectual love, and that is true love. Other kinds of love arise from self-interest. They are meaningless. They have no true value. What is valuable is the enduring love. It is the love for our Prophet, peace be upon him, with Allah's permission. In these blessed months, we do everything with even more devotion out of respect for our Prophet, for his pleasure and for Allah's pleasure. May Allah accept it from all of us. May He deepen our affection. It is our duty to love not our ego, but our Prophet. It is necessary. It is kindness. We must understand this. Our Prophet says: "You are not a true believer until you love me more than yourself, your mother, your father, your children, and everything in the world." You may be Muslim. Nowadays, there are people who have been led astray by Satan, who claim to be Muslims but show little respect for our Prophet. They consider this deep reverence as something reprehensible. They call this reverence idolatry. Such things they claim. They unsettle people. They prevent them from attaining these virtues. They keep people from earning rewards, from drawing closer to Allah, and from being among His beloved servants. With this ruse, they deceive people. May Allah protect us from this. May Muslims not follow them, insha'Allah. The truth is: The more reverence you show our Prophet, the higher your rank will be and the more blessings you will experience. May Allah deepen our love even more and further strengthen our respect for Him, insha'Allah.

Insha'Allah, today we observe the Night of Decree. This is our intention, Insha'Allah. May Allah accept it, even if it is not this night, but another. To honor and enliven this night means: To perform prayers for Allah's sake, to pray before going to sleep, to rise for Tahajjud, to rise for Sahur, and to continue with acts of worship. That is the most important thing. This is done out of reverence, as it is not exactly known which night it is, to honor it. Allah, the Mighty and Exalted, has honored it. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was given this night especially for his community, although more than a hundred thousand, namely one hundred and twenty-four thousand prophets have come. None was granted so much generosity, so much excellence. One night is better than a thousand months. This means Allah the Mighty and Exalted has given in one night as much excellence as an entire lifetime. Whoever knows the value of this night has surely received their share. One receives it. That means, whether you experience this night or not, if you do the same every night, you receive the reverence of this night. Every year, the human being, the Muslim, with Allah's permission, gains a thousand years of excellence. That is a great favor. People abandon this and follow some ignorant individuals and leave the faith, they disapprove of religion. They think that the satans they follow will bring them something. But they are of no use. This favor that Allah the Mighty and Exalted has given us, to belong to the community of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, is the greatest honor, the greatest excellence. Whoever accepts it reaches the highest ranks. He is a happy person. He is a person who knows the value. He is a person who knows the jewel, who can distinguish the jewel from manure; some find manure more valuable. They run after manure. They run after manure, but it brings nothing. One must know the value of this favor that Allah the Mighty and Exalted has given. One must benefit from it. Thank Allah, who forms the community of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him? Those who follow him, who show him respect. Whoever does not belong to his community, even if related, is an enemy of Allah, the Mighty and Exalted. The uncle of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, Abu Lahab, his blood uncle, is destined for hell. Why? Because he is an unfortunate person. Had he been fortunate, Allah would have shown him favor. He is unfortunate, therefore he is destined for hell. A fortunate person uses this fortune. He thanks Allah day and night. He does not run after others and ruin his hereafter. The hereafter is permanent, eternal. The world is transient. A person who sells the hereafter for the world is a pitiful person. Therefore, this night is a blessed night. May Allah bless it for all of us. This intention, our intention is that Allah grants us the gifts of the Night of Decree. May he give it to us on any night, Insha'Allah. May he grant us this blessed night. Thank Allah, what does nightly rising, reviving the night mean? Some drive around until morning in cars, from one place to another, from mosque to mosque. That is not necessary at all. Or they pray at home until morning, without sleeping. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, says: If you perform the night prayer, pray before going to sleep, and then rise in the morning for Tahajjud, it is as if you had revived the whole night. So this is not a difficult thing. Don't make difficulties for yourselves. Islam is a religion of ease. Benefit from this ease. Because if it is too difficult, people will not do it. "Should I stay up all night?" one asks oneself. "Ok, I'll get up, I can manage for one day, two days." After that, one can't manage anymore. That's why there is the ease; before going to sleep there is a prayer with two rakats. If you rise in the morning for Sahur and perform the Tahajjud prayer, you have revived the night. May Allah bless it. May Allah grant it to everyone. May Allah also give them happiness and faith and guide them. In this month of Ramadan, there is a great punishment for evil, for disrespect towards Allah... if they do not ask for forgiveness. This disrespect towards Allah, those who declare war on Allah, will certainly suffer their punishment. If they ask for forgiveness, if they repent, that's different. But if they don't, they will certainly have to suffer. Everything is recorded with Allah. There are angels on the right and left. They write down the good, they write down the evil. The angel of evil waits for one to ask for forgiveness so he can erase it. If one does that, he erases the evil deeds committed. If one doesn't, he waits, and eventually it is written down. And if one does not ask for forgiveness until the end of life, one finds one's punishment in the hereafter. In this world, it is of no use anyway. May Allah guide us, Insha'Allah.

Our Prophet, peace be upon him, says: المؤمن مرآة المؤمن Our Prophet, peace be upon him, says, "The believer is the mirror of the believer." Being a believer goes beyond simply being a Muslim. Being a Muslim alone is not enough. To be a mirror means that one believer sees another believer as themselves. Whatever they desire for themselves, they wish for others as well. They want the same blessings for them. They don't think others deserve any less than they do. Every blessing they seek for themselves, they equally desire for their believing brothers and sisters. They recognize others as themselves and treat them accordingly. These true believers are those beloved by our Prophet, peace be upon him—those who follow both the Prophet's spiritual path (tariqa) and religious law (sharia). For the true path is revealed through both sharia and tariqa. Those who follow these teachings are genuine believers. The goodness found in any believer is shared by all believers. No harm comes from a true believer. Our Prophet instructed, "Neither harm others nor allow yourself to be harmed." The dignity of a believer is beautiful to behold. A believer wishes good for everyone they encounter. A believer wants others to find the right path and enter paradise. This is why many spiritual guides see the teachers who will follow them as mirrors, reflecting their own path. One of the greatest saints, Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi, said of Shams Tabrizi, "He is my mirror." Through this mirror, he gazed at Shams and received spiritual grace. They shared profound conversations together. Shams imparted knowledge and truth. Sheikh Tabrizi served as a mirror exclusively for Mevlana. Not for others. Because only Mevlana Jalaluddin could withstand his spiritual station. He didn't become a mirror for anyone else, and others couldn't comprehend him. Since his teachings weren't meant for everyone to understand, he became a mirror solely for Mevlana. Those profound truths passed directly from one heart to another. They became vessels for great spiritual guidance. To this day, millions have discovered faith and truth through their teachings. In this way, truth emerged into the world. This is what we mean by being a mirror. As our Prophet, peace be upon him, taught, how does one truly know another? As the saying goes, we know others as we know ourselves. But most people, naturally, don't operate this way. A non-believer differs fundamentally from a believer. You might assume others think like you and treat them accordingly. But when someone with impure intentions is only calculating how to benefit from you or advance themselves, disappointment often follows. That's not what truly matters. What's important is finding fellow believers and serving as mirrors for each other—recognizing your own shortcomings and learning from their example. Insha'Allah, this creates something beautiful and fulfills our Prophet's teaching.

Sheikh Baba, may Allah elevate his rank. Many beautiful qasidas, poems, and sayings have been passed down to us from the great personalities of Islam. There are thousands of them. They tell of Allah's greatness, the high rank of our Prophet, and his manifestations. Sheikh Baba also mentioned these regularly. He had a special saying that he would use depending on people's situations. La tuksir li-hammik, ma quddir yakun, fa-Allahu al-muqaddir, wa-l-alam shu'un. This means: "Don't worry too much." Don't be sad and concerned. Don't grieve over worldly matters. Say "I accept" to everything and continue on your path. Especially for worldly matters, you shouldn't rack your brain. Because Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, does what He wills. Whether you rack your brain, get headaches, or your head threatens to burst – It's all of no use. The best thing is, as this qasida and this poem say: Don't worry. Allah exists. Everything is determined by Allah. Don't exhaust yourself with worries. Submit to Allah. Submit to Allah, the Exalted and Majestic. Everything will be easier. The world will not change through your worries. Your situation doesn't change through your sadness and your racking your brain. You're only giving yourself headaches. Sometimes you can even harm your faith with it. Allah forbid, some people can even lose their faith because of worldly matters. It's not worth it at all. Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, has maintained the world in the same way since its creation. There is no time without difficulties and problems. Of course, there were also beautiful, very beautiful times. The most beautiful times were also experienced. And with whom? With our Prophet, Allah's blessings and peace be upon him. But this time was naturally also the most difficult. Yet because they submitted to Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, it was the most beautiful time. Although they were hungry for worldly things and tied stones to their stomachs, couldn't even find a morsel of bread, these were still the most beautiful times. This means: In this world, everything becomes beautiful when one submits to Allah. With good people together, the world becomes like a paradise. But if you are with bad people, even if the whole world belongs to you, you will still not be content and find no peace. Your head will not find rest. That's why there are these wise pieces of advice, the words of Mevlana, his qasidas, and the beautiful words that thousands of saints have spoken. All of these serve to trust in Allah and rely on Him. They have formulated these valuable expressions to convey comfort and wisdom to people. Some people understand it, some don't, some ignore it. But the important thing is: Instead of complaining that this happened this way and that happened that way, don't worry about the world. It has its Lord, Allah, the Exalted and Majestic. What He wills happens, what He does not will does not happen. Therefore, there is no reason to worry about "what could have been." Just be on Allah's path, that is enough. May Allah show us all the right path. May He protect us from all worries that could cause us distress, insha'Allah.

وَلَا يَخَافُونَ لَوۡمَةَ لَآئِمٖۚ (5:54) Allah, the Almighty and Exalted, describes in the Holy Quran: There are people who cannot tolerate Muslims. They speak disparagingly about those who follow Islam. Allah, the Almighty and Exalted, says: "They fear not the blame of the blamers." For they are true believers and their way is the right path; they are the ones who are right. Those who are in the wrong become angry with them, reproach them, argue with them, and insult them. Allah, the Almighty and Exalted, says: "They do not worry about this; it does not even affect them." This means, if you are on the right path, it doesn't matter what others say. Do not respond to ignorance with ignorance. Let them talk as much as they want. If there is someone who can understand, someone who can comprehend your intention, then speak with them. If they ask you: "What didn't you like? Why did you act that way?", then you can answer them and have a conversation. But if there are people who act against you out of malice, pay them no attention. Do not fear them. What they say has no value. Evil does not touch you, but them. They suffer the evil. Therefore, thank Allah if you are on the right path: "I follow this path." "The devils have targeted me." "I am being attacked by the devils." They harbor resentment, hatred, and disgust against all who walk on Allah's path. You should be grateful that you are on Allah's path. And none of it is in vain for you. Allah will reward you for it. These people have attacked you, done evil to you, said bad things about you; if you were patient, Allah, the Almighty and Exalted, will reward you for your patience. This is a blessing, and every blessing brings its reward. At the very least: Sometimes people look at you strangely, even if they don't say anything. Even this look is to your advantage. It brings you reward and merit. Therefore, everyone who is on Allah's path should be grateful. You should thank Allah for His grace and favor; be thankful that you are not like those who turn against Him and speak ill of His followers. One should also pray for them. Because many people who were initially on the wrong path later return to the right path and repent. This path is a beautiful path. One should also pray for their guidance. In fact, there were many companions, great companions, who were once the worst enemies of Islam. Later they became the most determined defenders of Islam. These people became leaders of the believers. At first, they fought against Islam. Many fought against our Prophet. But then they found guidance and reached the highest ranks among the companions. Therefore, may Allah grant them guidance. May Allah give guidance to those who are against Islam, who reject Islam, who attack Islam out of ignorance. Do not be sad because they reject you and have said such words. They will either repent or find guidance, insha'Allah.

Praise be to Allah, that Ramadan leads us to all that is good. In this blessed month, the exalted Quran was revealed. Allah sent down the Quran in this month, Ramadan, to our Prophet. The night in which the holy Quran was revealed is the Night of Decree (Laylat al-Qadr). Allah, the Exalted, says that this night is more valuable than a thousand months. A thousand months actually corresponds to the entire lifespan that a human can at most achieve. If you subtract childhood, you receive in a single night the value of about 90 years of life. Allah, the Exalted, even says that the Night of Decree is more valuable than that. Everyone searches for this Night of Decree, because whoever experiences it will be blessed with all that is good. In a hadith, a blessed companion asks our Prophet, peace be upon him. He asks which night is the Night of Decree. Our Prophet, peace be upon him, answers: The Night of Decree could basically be on any night of the year, but most often it falls in the month of Ramadan. It occurs especially in the last ten days of Ramadan. Our Prophet, peace be upon him, says: If I were to tell you which night it is, people would neglect regular prayer and only wait for this night. They would do nothing else anymore. Therefore, Allah, the Exalted, has hidden the Night of Decree. So that people remain constant in prayer and reach it - and they will certainly reach it. That means, even if one doesn't consciously recognize it, someone who prays consistently will surely experience it. The blessing of it will become apparent in the hereafter. The person will say: "Oh Allah, I experienced the Night of Decree several times without knowing it." It is good that I didn't know, so that I wouldn't ask for trivial things - thus Allah has stored its blessing for the hereafter. Receiving the reward in the hereafter will be a great joy for the person. This month of Ramadan brings all kinds of blessings with it. That's why people feel that this is the most beautiful and valuable month of the year. They feel that one of the secrets of this special month is precisely this Night of Decree. It is the fasting, it is the suhoor. Every act of worship is rewarded by Allah, the Exalted, not just tenfold, but a hundredfold, seven hundredfold, even a thousandfold. Allah, the Exalted, says: I myself give the reward for the one who fasts. And he gives without counting. How happy, therefore, is the one who is Muslim, who is human - who was born human and became Muslim. For being human is a state that Allah has created. Belonging to a particular community is something else, but whether the person takes Allah's path is in their own hands. The person can make this decision themselves. Therefore, for the person, the most beautiful thing, the greatest blessing, the greatest gain, is to control their carnal soul and to progress on Allah's path. One should be grateful day and night that Allah has given this blessing. One should not leave his path. May Allah assist us. May it be blessed. Ramadan is not over yet. God willing, we will experience the Night of Decree, if it is destined for us. Actually, most of us have already experienced it without knowing it. Because there are special moments that Allah, the Exalted, has created. When the person encounters them, the prayers they speak will be heard. Even worldly wishes are accepted. Of course, prayers for the hereafter are also heard. If you encounter the Night of Decree, our Prophet, peace be upon him, teaches that the best supplication is the following: Allahumma inni as'aluka al-'afwa wal-'afiyata wal-mu'afata ad-da'imata fid-dini wad-dunya wal-akhira Ask Allah for forgiveness, ask for well-being, ask for health and welfare. May our welfare last, may it be constant. Well-being is one of the greatest blessings. Health and welfare are an invaluable blessing. They are important for not being a burden to others, for serving on Allah's path, for continuing prayers. One should always ask for it. If the person thinks about money, about possessions, about cars - you can also ask for those, but this prayer is most important. Whoever speaks this prayer on the Night of Decree: Their life will pass in health and well-being, Allah will forgive them, insha'Allah.

Our Prophet, peace be upon him, mentions one of the signs of the end times and the Day of Judgment: "I'jābu kulli dhī ra'yin bi-ra'yihi." "Everyone admires their own opinion and rejects others'," says our Prophet, peace be upon him. We live in exactly such times today. Everyone prefers their own perspective, thinks "This is how I feel about it" and doesn't want to accept others' opinions or even acts completely contrary to them. Such behavior accomplishes nothing at all. Because humans should strive for truth. Wherever the truth lies, one must accept it. Not everything can be exactly as one wishes. Everything was created through Allah's determination, the Exalted and Majestic. If you object to everything, you are also opposing the will of Allah, the Exalted and Majestic. Many people sometimes ask: "Why does this injustice occur?" "Why doesn't God intervene in this world?" This too is actually a meaningless statement. That humans are so disrespectful toward the power and greatness of Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, is only due to the limitation of their intellect, nothing else. No reasonable person would interfere in the affairs of Allah, the Exalted and Majestic. Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, acts and creates according to His will. Leave one topic aside; even if you ask someone who is above you: "Why do you do this, why do you do that?", there is much that you simply don't know. He knows these things, you cannot know them. It does you no good to protest against things you don't understand. In fact, sometimes you understand it, often even, only when you can recognize your own shortcomings. If you cannot recognize them, you stubbornly persist in your opinion. In the end, one leaves this world without having achieved anything meaningful. Therefore, it is important to accept the truth and what is right. Accepting the bad brings no benefit, only harm. Apart from the harm, humans thereby do something completely unnecessary. This is one of the signs and characteristics of the end times. Everyone acts as they see fit, talks about "democracy" and deceives people. They delay tasks that should have been completed long ago. They forbid good and accept evil. These are the clear signs that we are living in the end times. And when we speak of the end times, the Day of Judgment will dawn afterward. That means the Day of Judgment is drawing nearer. The state of this world is not getting better day by day, but worse. Therefore, humans must bow to the truth. They must accept the truth to find a way out of this situation. To free themselves from the captivity of their own ego, they must accept the truth. Then their ego will accept this too. Then they will be a good Muslim. May Allah grant this to all of us, insha'Allah.
