Mawlana Sheikh Mehmed Adil. Translations.

There is a blessed saying, whether it is a hadith or the words of a venerable righteous one, I cannot say with certainty. However, it is often referred to as a hadith. The saying goes: "Everyone will easily find what they were created for." This is a blessed phrase, because there is wisdom in each of Allah's works. Every thing, every task, has its purpose. This task should be fulfilled and completed, always according to the will of Allahﷻ. Most of the saints do not ask about this wisdom, they do not question the why, the how, or whether it is good or bad. They know that everything comes from Allahﷻ and strive to see things from the perspective of wisdom. If they cannot recognize this wisdom, they say: "Allahﷻ knows wisdom" and do not think about it any further. Let's look at the current situation worldwide: there is so much evil, so many bad people. More bad than good, more bad than good. Yet everything was created with a wisdom that only Allahﷻ knows. Both good and evil serve as a test. Of course, there are certain things that we as humans reject because they are against Allahﷻ, against us humans, Muslims, believers and every living being. As Muslims, we do not agree when suffering is inflicted. But again, we know that there is an underlying wisdom that only Allahﷻ knows. We must learn not to interfere and accept the world as it is, good and bad. If we cannot change the bad, we should at least condemn it in our hearts and not approve of it. This is particularly important for people in general as well as adherents of the tarikat and anyone who identifies as a Muslim. Because knowing this makes us acceptable in the sight of Allahﷻ. Anyone who doesn't understand this and raises objections will lose their reward and their path. Most of the things that happen in the world are evil in nature. Sometimes it can be good to talk about it without understanding the wisdom behind it, sometimes it's not good. Because often everything is not as we see it: what people often think is good can be bad, and what they think is bad can be good - that is Allah's wisdom. A believer should always try to stay away from such things, from temptations, and not to act carelessly. As Sheikh Nazim said, the one who stays at home is safe inshallah. May Allahﷻ protect us. There are many different forms of wisdom, as mentioned earlier. One should never claim that Allahﷻ created something for a reason. Allahﷻ created with His wisdom. We must not interfere with Allah's work. Everything has its order and its rules. Anything can happen and anything must happen. There must be evil as well as good. Sometimes evil prevails, only to disappear again and make room for good. This is Allah's order, His rule. It's better for us if we don't interfere. As we have already said, people often act without knowledge and see evil as good and good as evil. May Allahﷻ protect us from this.

As we already said yesterday, Islam prescribes various commandments. Some of them can change depending on the situation or are subject to certain conditions. One of these commandments, which was issued during the time of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, was the order to migrate from Mecca to Medina. Everyone should follow this command. Of course, the Meccan idolaters did not let them go easily. They did not allow their migration. Those who managed to migrate did so either in secret or they were strong enough to not let it be prevented. They were able to leave. The poor or weak on the other hand had to stay. But the migration was the command of Allah. This command remained in force until Mecca was conquered. With the conquest of Mecca al-Mukarramah, this commandment was abolished. The migration was no longer obligatory. When will migration be permissible again. When people are forced to migrate, that is: when they are driven out by the enemy or their faith is in danger. In this situation, migration is then allowed and they will receive rewards for it in the Afterlife. Not to migrate to escape the difficulties of this world, but to preserve faith and protect one's Afterlife. Reasons for migration are hence: to protect faith, language, and honor. Allah ﷻ rewards them for this. If you are forced to abandon your faith, then it is permissible to migrate in order to flee this situation for the protection of your faith. As long as your faith is not in danger and you can preserve it, you can stay. But most people often become extremely brutal. They have no respect for humanity, nor are they capable of compassion or mercy. That's why migration can be appropriate in some situations. The actual migration of Muslims was the one during the time of the Prophet ﷺ. It was a command. They all had to go. Thanks to Allah, they were able to return to their homeland ten years later. Nowadays, where Muslims worldwide are cornered and under pressure, one should always remember: In the end, Allah ﷻ wins. The devil and his followers will always be the losers in the end. As Sheikh Nazim said, the devil and his followers think they have won. But in the end, they will see that they have achieved nothing. They have lost everything. They have no share in good, neither in this world nor in the Afterlife. The oppressors will be punished. Oppression does not come from Allah ﷻ. People oppress themselves and no one else. If they oppress others, Allah ﷻ will punish them. They must bear the consequences of their actions. May Allah be with us ﷻ, in sha Allah. May Allah ﷻ protect the Muslims. When we look at the world, we see that oppression is everywhere. Now, at the end of times, the situation is such that nothing other than oppression exists. Not a bit of justice remains. In the past, people were still deceived. Now, they don't even make that effort anymore. They have become completely ruthless: “We don't need any apparent justification. We simply oppress them. Let people do something if they can." Everything in the end is in the hands of Allah ﷻ. He ﷻ will surely hold those accountable.

The commands of Allah ﷻ are the most important for Muslims. The five pillars of Islam: The profession of faith and prayer, fasting, Zakat, and pilgrimage. These are the things that Allah ﷻ commands the Muslims. These commands must be done. As a Muslim, everyone must fast and pray. Everyone is obliged to fulfill the duty of prayer and fasting. It is an indispensable command. For those who do not fulfill this duty, there is a punishment in the afterlife. Those who have not fulfilled these duties will be held accountable in the afterlife and they must settle what they avoided in this world in the afterlife. Fasting and prayer are the unchangeable basic duties for every Muslim. There are prerequisites for Zakat and pilgrimage. To be able to fulfill Zakat or undertake the pilgrimage, the necessary financial means are required. For those who have no money, the profession of faith, prayer, and fasting are their unavoidable obligations. Anyone who has enough money is of course obliged to pay their Zakat. Anyone who has even more money is obliged to perform the pilgrimage. These are the commands of Islam with their prioritizations. There are also other commands. However, the fulfillment of these commands presupposes the fulfillment of certain conditions. Before this type of commands can be executed, the basic conditions must be met first. These conditions must be met first. So there are certain commands that you cannot carry out at your own discretion. In these cases, one should not act at one's own discretion. If action is taken at one's own discretion in these cases, then you will suffer harm yourself, as well as the Muslims in general. We live in the end times and things are happening that greatly oppress people. Injustice is everywhere. Islam is being attacked everywhere. What should we do? There are people who are calling for Jihad. Jihad is indeed a command, but there are basic prerequisites that must be fulfilled before Jihad can be declared. If you say, I will carry out Jihad on my own, you will either be intercepted prematurely, shot, and eliminated. In the end, you would only involve everyone else. You think you would be helpful, but damage is being done. Jihad is one of the most beautiful commands of Allah ﷻ. But as we said, you cannot carry out a Jihad on your own. Jihad requires a Sultan and his call for Jihad. Only with the command of the Sultan can a Jihad be declared. There is no other way. Acting at one's own discretion in this matter brings no benefit at all. Allah commands not to put yourself in danger. If you put yourself in danger, you are opposing the command of Allah ﷻ. Allah's command ﷻ is clear. There is a Jihad that you can lead. The greatest Jihad is to fight against your own ego. Resist your ego. Educate your base self. The fight against yourself is also Jihad. Otherwise, we can only help with our prayers. Prayer is the weapon of the believer. With the permission of Allah ﷻ, prayer accomplishes what canons and guns cannot achieve. Prayers stop their bombs. Prayers disarm their weapons. Allah ﷻ has created Islam in a perfect way. If the Muslims truly followed Islam, nothing would happen to them. They would be at peace themselves and so would others. But the Muslims are not following the commands of Islam and therefore they suffer all kinds of evils. Terrible events and evil people are tormenting the Muslims as a consequence. What are these religious commands? The commands of the religion come from our Prophet ﷺ. The commands of the religion mean to follow the way of our Prophet ﷺ. Whoever follows his path will be saved. There is no other path to salvation. Praise to Allah ﷻ. On the path of our Prophet ﷺ, there are glad tidings. At the end of times, Mahdi, peace be upon him, will appear and Jesus, peace be upon him, will descend from heaven. Currently, the whole world is full of injustice and wrongdoing. Mahdi and Jesus, peace be upon them, will restore justice. There will be no more injustice in the world. Now we clearly see that there is no more justice. Lies reign all over the world. Their deceptions have now come to light. No one can be believed or trusted anymore. For a long time they have been deceiving people, this or that country is just and has democracy. Everyone would be able to get everything, they said. Nobody would be wronged. Nothing would happen to anyone. Everything turned out to be a lie. The injustice reached its climax. Allah commands that these lies will reach their climax, but shortly afterwards they will be destroyed. After the climax comes the fall. And falling means the end. After the lies have reached their climax, they will disappear, Allah willing. People must be patient and pray. The believers should pray for Allah ﷻ to send Mehdi and Jesus, peace be upon them, as soon as possible. May Allah send Mehdi, peace be upon him. He is the commander who will eradicate hypocrisy, disbelief, Allahlessness, evil, wickedness, tyranny, and all evil and cleanse them. Everything will be flawless, Allah willing. There is no other salvation. Nothing else is of any use. May Allah ﷻ help Muslims. May Allah ﷻ soon send us Mahdi, peace be upon him, Allah willing.

They are Pharaohs. The ego of each individual is a Pharaoh. Regardless of the person, when the ego has the opportunity, it becomes a Pharaoh. The ego of everyone will behave like a Pharaoh, if it can. What did Pharaoh do during the times of Moses, peace be upon him. He gathered his people before him. And said to his people: "I am your greatest lord. I am your God." Pharaoh followed his desire. He regarded his subjects as slaves and his ego reveled in the sight of the crowd of people. This sight pleased Pharaoh and he was amazed at himself: "How great I am!" "I am your president, I am your king!" But that was not enough for him. Finally, Pharaoh said: "I am your God." This is how the ego behaves. The ego puts people in danger and drives them to ruin. The ego turns people into Pharaohs. Allah the Exalted ﷻ tells us about this incident as a lesson. Allah ﷻ delivers this event in the Noble Quran. This should be a lesson for those who fear Allah ﷻ. It should be a lesson not to follow the ego. Don't consider what your ego promises you as something special and don't follow your ego. Allah the Exalted ﷻ has given mankind a lesson, but they do not learn from it. Most people do not understand it. There have been Pharaohs at all times. They did not do what Allah the Exalted ﷻ said. On the one hand, they did not obey Allah's ﷻ commands. Furthermore, they have risen against Allah ﷻ. They have forbidden the commandments of Allah ﷻ. They wanted to erase Allah's ﷻ commandments. But they have destroyed themselves. They have perished. This is a lesson. It is a lesson in this life and in the hereafter, says Allah the Exalted ﷻ. They have also not achieved peace in this world. There was and is no peace for them, because they committed these injustices and considered themselves something and tortured people. There is no peace of mind for those who go against the way of Allah and do not comply with what Allah the Exalted ﷻ says. Whoever tries to enforce his own words instead of Allah's ﷻ commandments will also perish. Those who follow them will also perish if they do not come to their senses. This way is Allah's way. There is no other way to salvation. There is no other way to redemption. From time immemorial, people have gone astray. People have deviated from the right path and have even made an effort to tread other paths. Whoever has gone astray has perished. Those who follow the way of Allah have won, they have entered the way of redemption. They have surely found redemption in this world and in the hereafter, if Allah ﷻ wills. Those who go another way have perished. May Allah ﷻ protect us from that. The wise person sees the right way. The right way is big and wide and straight. The right way is pure, beautiful and obvious. The right path is clearly visible to the eyes. Why do people leave the right path and prefer a needless, dangerous and misleading path. Don't stray from the straight path. Only the misguided go astray. May Allah ﷻ protect us. May Allah ﷻ protect the Muslims, children, young, old and all people. Satan is after everyone, no matter if young or old. He misguides everyone. May Allah ﷻ protect us from that. May Allah ﷻ send us the protector and savior Mahdi Alayhissalam.
