Mawlana Sheikh Mehmed Adil. Translations.

Glory be to Him who neither changes nor fades away. Allah, the Almighty, does not change. Nothing can influence Him. He is Allah, the Exalted. Everything and everyone except Him changes. Stone, iron, everything in the world, the moon, the sun; nothing remains unchanged. They all have a lifespan. Their time is limited. Time passes. Over time, everything changes. The only one who does not change is Allah. His majesty and power are infinite. Our minds cannot comprehend it. People consider themselves important and pass judgments. They boast with pride: “We are this, we are that.” "The same old tune: 'I believe, I think, it must be this way,' they say and use every opportunity to showcase themselves." Allah is the highest of all judges, only His judgment counts. Allah created us. His will be done. What Allah wills, happens. You can try as much as you want to change things. But you can't change it. Therefore, follow Allah's path. Those who stray from Allah's path will perish. Those who are with Allah always win. They win both in this world and in the hereafter. Even if it appears different in this world, they have won. They have gained Allah's pleasure. Those who are with Allah, who are on Allah's path, have definitely won. The others have lost. Therefore, the only one who neither changes nor fades away is Allah. Be with Allah so that you may be saved. Where are the people about whom you were so sure: "He was so good, he helped us, he did this, he did that." For thousands of years such people have come and gone. But none have remained. The one who remains is Allah. Be with Allah, the Unchanging, so that you may be saved. May Allah keep us steadfast on His right path. And may Allah make our good deeds perpetual and eternal, Insha'Allah.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم أَلَمْ نَجْعَلِ ٱلْأَرْضَ مِهَـٰدًۭا وَٱلْجِبَالَ أَوْتَادًۭا (78:6-7) صَدَقَ الله العظيم Allah has created everything with wisdom. Very few people can recognize the wisdom behind things. The knowledge of Allah, praised and exalted be He, knows no boundaries. His knowledge encompasses things beyond our understanding and imagination. However, people are often arrogant and, in their claim to know everything, they reveal their ignorance and deny their Creator. Unfortunately, many people behave this way. True scholars, on the other hand, are those whose humility grows and whose reverence for Allah increases. These are the true scholars. True knowledge leads to Allah. However, knowledge can also lead to ignorance. The knowledge is the same, but it can either lead to guidance or misguidance. Depending on how Allah determines, a person will be guided or misled by his knowledge. If Allah grants him insight and his knowledge results in his faith in Allah becoming stronger, then it is blessed knowledge. The same knowledge can, however, lead a person to deny Allah, and then this knowledge is harmful. Allah says that He has created everything with wisdom. The mountains and rocks serve to stabilize the earth. That is a wisdom. There is knowledge about mountains, valleys, and everything else. Naturally, people are constantly researching and investigating. You see people looking at the sky from the top of a mountain. What are you looking for? The mountain stands there and does not run away. What are you searching for? Through the observation of this world alone, one can acquire so much knowledge. The human mind is not sufficient to truly grasp even the things in this world. It cannot even understand all the events in the world. Despite their ignorance, people fight against Allah. May Allah protect us. May we only gain truly beneficial knowledge. True knowledge is the knowledge that leads to Allah. We seek the knowledge that leads to Allah, insha'Allah. Today, millions of people are studying. In the past, there was only one university in Turkey. Now there are thousands of universities. Worldwide there are millions of universities. Everyone is studying to learn something. Beneficial knowledge is the path that leads to Allah. Other knowledge, however, is harmful. May Allah protect us. May we be given beneficial knowledge, insha'Allah. ```

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنِ ۖ إِنَّ كَيْدَ ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنِ كَانَ ضَعِيفًا (4:76) صَدَقَ الله العظيم Allah, the Almighty, says that the cunning of Satan is weak. No matter how much he tries, his actions are in vain. This is a time when devils seem to rule. But as Allah says, Satan is nevertheless weak. Satan wants to destroy all that is good in the world. He tries to mix good with bad, so that people cannot recognize the difference and fall for him. People find themselves in these bad conditions because they have turned away from Allah and followed evil. This leads them to destroy all good and replace it with something uncertain. What they do is obviously bad, but they are never satisfied and always want more. Because evil knows no boundaries. Neither the desires of the ego nor those of Satan have an end. The more you give in to them, the more they demand. If you commit a sin and do not repent, Satan will bring you to commit even more sins. He will never stop urging you to continue. But Allah, the Almighty, nullifies Satan's plans when man returns to Allah and repents. Then everything that Satan has built is destroyed. Allah even wants sins to be transformed into good deeds. Thus, Satan's efforts will be completely in vain. The world may seem bad, but there is also something good in everything. Allah, the Almighty, says, after every difficulty comes relief. At the beginning, it is hard, then it becomes easier. It is easier to do bad than to do good. But if you avoid the bad, that itself becomes a good deed. Good will triumph over evil. And the rewards will be greater. The greater the difficulty, the greater the reward. Satan has also set traps for the Muslims. Satan makes Muslims not want to pray. They say they feel constrained, pressured, and restricted when they want to pray. Due to this pretext, this person prayed. Why don't you pray? I do not feel comfortable during the prayer; it is incredibly difficult for me. If you pray despite the difficulties, then your prayer is a thousand times more valuable than usual. If you overcome your ego and pray despite Satan's and the ego's escapades, you will be rewarded a thousandfold. Otherwise, if you do not, you sin. And you miss out on great rewards. May Allah protect us from the evil of Satan, our ego, and this time.

The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: تَفَاؤَلُوا بِالخَيْرِ تَجِدُوهُ Always expect good, and you will find good. If one expects good, that good will surely come to pass, said the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. Do not think ill. Always think that everything that happens leads to good, says the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. The month we are in is the month of Safar. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, called this month "Saferul Hayr", the blessed month of Safar. Many people are afraid of the month of Safar. With Allah's permission - Sheikh Baba said - may the good come to us and the bad to those who bring it. May it bring us good. There is nothing to fear in this blessed month. We hope that this month, insha'Allah, will be blessed. Blessed for Islam, blessed for the people. This month is a blessed month. In this month, more prayer, repentance, and forgiveness are needed. The month of Safar also has daily tasks. Our brothers and sisters know this and will write it down and spread it. In this month, it is important to perform more prayers and ask for more forgiveness. Give more charity. This month invites us to do more good. In this blessed month, it is essential to perform more prayers, ask for more forgiveness, and do more charitable acts. May Allah help us to do good deeds, insha'Allah. We see everything as good. People, especially Muslims, should see events as good, and if they see them as good, then it will surely be good. Think of the good. Think that it will be good, and then it will be good. A person who thinks that something will go badly will experience bad accordingly. May Allah protect us. Always remember that everything will be good. Think that it will be good, no matter what happens. You are Muslims, you are believers; if you think well, you will find good. Even the worst will then be good. In what you see as bad, Allah the Almighty may have intended good. Allah's wisdom is infinite, . May Allah bless the month of Safar. May Allah lead us to good deeds, insha'Allah.

People say: "We have it hard." Many people in the world complain. Most complain about their difficulties. Of course, there are many problems. The Prophet, peace be upon him, explains to us what the wisdom behind these difficulties is. On the Day of Judgment, a believer who suffered the most in the world, had no possessions, was sick, and was in the worst situation will be called. When he is in paradise, he will be asked: "Did you have difficulties in the world?" He answers: "No, not at all." Because in paradise, you forget all the problems that you went through in this world.

Our goal in life - the goal of a Muslim, the goal of humanity - should be to attain the pleasure of Allah. Beyond that, to attain Allah's love. Those who follow the path of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, are also referred to as Habibullah, just like the Prophet himself. Habibullah means the beloved of Allah. This should be the goal. The goal of people should not be the world, but to attain the pleasure and love of Allah. That is the greatest task for people. If one does not do that, nothing else is of benefit. Even if you own the whole world, yes even ten worlds, if you do not attain Allah's love, it is of no benefit. A wise person considers how they can gain Allah's love and acts accordingly. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, says that the people loved by Allah are those who go to the mosque for prayer in the darkness. Going to the mosque in the darkness means going to the mosque to perform the night and morning prayers in congregation. They are the people loved by Allah. They have gained Allah's pleasure and love. They have accomplished the greatest task. Some people ask, why do we live? The ignorant are not aware of this. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, informs and teaches us. He frees us from ignorance. If you cannot go to the mosque, then at least get up at home, pray, and lie down again. If even that is not possible, then at least pray after you have woken up. You can pray it until the noon prayer, Dhuhr. Until noon, you can pray it including Sunnah. After noon, however, it should be made up. If you have not managed to pray it by noon and need to make it up, then pray it. If you do not even do that, then what is the use of your life? It is of no use. If you do not at least make up the prayers you have missed, your life is wasted. It has been of no use; it is a useless life. A lost life. You will lose the great gifts and great blessings that are everlasting. Allah's command is not difficult for people. You can do it! Allah does not demand the impossible from people. لَا يُكَلِّفُ ٱللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا (2:286) "صدَقَ اللہُ العَظِيم" Allah does not demand the impossible from people. Therefore, those who say it is difficult or this and that are following their own ego. Whoever follows the ego suffers harm. May Allah protect us from that. May Allah not make us among those who follow their egos. May Allah guide us on His path. May Allah make us among His beloved people. Insha'Allah.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ٱلَّذِىٓ أَحْسَنَ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقَهُۥ ۖ (32:7) صَدَقَ الله العظيم Allah, the Exalted, has created everything in the most beautiful form. He has created everything in a perfect way. He has created the entire universe. Everything has come into being through the power of Allah, the Exalted. Even if the unbelieving, senseless human does not accept it, everything has been created through the power of Allah, the Exalted. Nothing has come into existence by itself. Without the power of Allah, the Exalted, nothing would have come into being. Everything happens by the will of Allah, the Exalted. Allah, the Exalted, has created the entire universe with His power, not just the place where we live, but everything, the heavens, the earth, and beyond. Allah has sent humans to this world, the place where we live, to test them. He has created everything in the most beautiful form. He has created everything in the best order. But humans do not obey Allah, the Exalted. Instead, humans submit to their own, other thoughts and ruin everything in the process. Naturally, this earth will not remain as it is forever. It is in constant change. Allah, the Exalted, has provided this world to humans. If people were on the right path, were sincere, and lived without harming anyone, the world would remain in order as well. But humans commit all kinds of evils. And the evil of humans keeps getting worse. Then humans try to correct this. But they cannot correct it. They cannot correct it because the lifespan of the earth has expired. This planet will soon perish. It may be that Allah, the Exalted, creates another world, but this world has reached its end. The Day of Judgment is near. May Allah protect us. May He guide the people. Sadly, people do not want guidance. They follow their own will and think they are doing good. But in reality, they are harming themselves and this world. Those who are on the path of Allah are the winners. Whether the world is good or bad does not matter to them. Because the world remains here. There is an afterlife. The well-being of both the worldly and the afterlife lies in the hands of humans. Whoever is on the path of Allah fares well in both this world and the afterlife. Whoever strays from the path of Allah fares poorly in both this world and the afterlife. May Allah protect us. May Allah grant us all faith. True faith. May Allah not let us deviate from His path, Insha'Allah.

The Prophet, peace be upon him, described the characteristics and signs of the End Times and said: إعجاب كل ذي رأي برأيه Everyone believes their own opinion is the best and rejects those of others. Everyone is convinced that what they know is correct, and that the knowledge of others is wrong. They insist on it and say: "In my opinion, this is the right way." But that's not how it works. What if it’s wrong? A person must recognize their mistakes. It's important to recognize a mistake because only then can it be corrected. However, if you believe your mistake is right, it will not benefit you. It will not help you; most of the time, it will even harm you. This is especially true for worldly matters. In religious matters, it's even more problematic. If a problem arises and you argue from your own mind: "This is how it should be done." "It is appropriate to do this." When you say that, you are effectively issuing a fatwa. You are giving yourself a fatwa. That is not correct. If you issue a fatwa in religious matters, about which you have no knowledge, from your own mind, you commit a sin. If you interfere in the affairs of others, you commit an even greater sin. Therefore, it's best to say: "This is what we have heard, this is how we do it, but ask nonetheless," even if you are sure and know that something is correct. It is not enough to just be a scholar to issue a fatwa. One must not only be a scholar but also be authorized to issue a fatwa and bear the responsibility for it. The one who issues a fatwa bears responsibility. Nowadays, everyone, even someone who doesn't even understand the alphabet, rises up and issues fatwas from their own mind. Your opinion on worldly matters could be wrong. 28 00:03:50,900 --> 00:03:30 The damage is limited to this world. But if you issue a fatwa for the Hereafter, you bear a great responsibility and could receive severe punishment in the Hereafter. If the fatwa violates the words of Allah and the Prophet, peace be upon him, then it becomes a burden for you. The person will be punished for it. So do not commit a sin unnecessarily and do not harm yourself. If you know something, then you can say that you know it; but if not, then say that you don't know. That is honorable. What you do not know, another knows; that other person gives the fatwa and explains what is right and what is wrong. But if you give a false fatwa, people will not ask anymore because they think they have already received a fatwa. However, that is not correct. But if you say "I don't know," "my knowledge is not sufficient, I have no knowledge about this topic," and say "go and ask the true scholars," then the person learns the truth. And you free yourself from the responsibility. May Allah protect us from following our ego. The ego thinks it knows everything, or considers it a shame to admit that it does not know something. But that is not a shame. Say what you know, and do not say what you do not know. Otherwise, you lead yourself into sin and mislead others. May Allah protect us. https://youtu.be/6ykaAE9nSto?feature=shared

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم مِن شَرِّ ٱلْوَسْوَاسِ ٱلْخَنَّاسِ (114:4) صَدَقَ الله العظيم Allah the Almighty tells us that we should seek protection from the evil of the whisperings of the devil. This verse is found in the last chapter, the Surah an-Naas. We are all familiar with whisperings. Many people come and say, "We have such and such whisperings." This is part of our test. Allah has given us whisperings as a test, but also the simple solution. Allah the Almighty says that we should ignore the whisperings. Seek refuge from the evil with Allah. As long as the whisperings—no matter what they are—do not translate into action, meaning as long as one does not follow them, they have no significance and are not a sin. Whisperings are a test by Allah. As long as you do not give in to the whisperings, no harm or sin will arise. On the contrary, your faith will be strengthened. Because if you do not pay attention to them, the strength of your faith will increase. However, whoever pays attention to the whisperings and follows them will face difficulties. Whoever listens to the whisperings will have major problems in worldly life. May Allah forgive us. Whoever listens to the whisperings will have a hard life. Whoever follows the whisperings cares about unnecessary things or does useless matters. A whispering can correspond to any type of obsession. Whoever listens to the whisperings often does not accept the truth and remains in doubt: "No, it must be like this, it must be like that," and acts according to his own thoughts. He burdens himself with unnecessary loads. What he does brings no benefit and gains no reward in the hereafter. Even if it is not a sin, it brings no benefit, and he does unnecessary things. Instead, he could do much more beautiful things. Whisperings never stop. Whether you are praying, lying down, standing up, whether you are at Umrah or Hajj, there is no place without whisperings. It is the test of man in this world. May Allah protect us. May Allah the Almighty protect us all from the whisperings and their evil.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إِنَّٱلَّذِينَيُحِبُّونَأَنتَشِيعَٱلۡفَٰحِشَةُفِيٱلَّذِينَءَامَنُواْلَهُمۡعَذَابٌأَلِيمٞ (24:19) صَدَقَ الله العظيم Allah says: For those who wish to spread bad deeds and sins among the believers, there awaits a great punishment in the Hereafter. Allah's wrath will descend upon them. Success will be denied to them. For their intention is nothing but evil. Sin is bad, not a virtue. Virtue means staying away from sins. Every kind of sin is something bad. There are small and large sins. Repentance means freeing oneself from sin. If you have fallen into sin, it is better to ask Allah for forgiveness and not to reveal it. The Prophet, peace be upon him, said: المبتلى بالمعصية فليسترها If you have fallen into sin, hide it, do not make it public. If you hide the sin, then Allah will cover your sin on the Day of Judgment. However, Satan wants the sin to be open and for everyone to commit it. They want to suppress those who refrain from sin. Why don’t you commit a sin? Why don’t you do anything bad? They push people to indulge in sins that destroy dignity and a sense of shame. We find ourselves in the midst of this time. Immorality penetrates everything - even things that have nothing to do with it. However, if you do something good, they accuse you of interfering in their affairs. But their own wickedness knows no bounds. May Allah protect us from it. We do not agree with them. This is not normal. Yet they present it as normal. They want to portray these bad actions as normal and acceptable. In truth, every human is repulsed by such actions. Both believers and non-believers find such deeds disgusting and want to escape them. But they want to present it as good. Allah has placed both good and evil in human nature. Goodness is part of human nature. Evil is also part of human nature. They know exactly what is good and what is bad. They want to blur the boundaries between good and evil so that everything seems normal. So that every wickedness is seen as normal. They want to present their bad deeds as normal. May Allah protect us from their evil. They will incur Allah’s wrath. They will be subjected to this punishment and wrath. May Allah protect us from it. They influence both adults and children among Muslims. Now, both young and old consider everything permissible. May Allah protect us. May Allah protect us all from the evil of our own selves.
