Abu al-Hasan al-Shadhili (Arabic: أبو الحسن الشاذلي) (full name: Abū al-Ḥasan ʿAlī ibn ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿAbd al-Jabbār al-Ḥasanī wal-Ḥusaynī al-Shādhilī) also known as Sheikh al-Shadhili (593–656 AH) (1196–1258 AD) was an influential Moroccan Islamic scholar and Sufi, founder of the Shadhili Sufi order.When asked who his spiritual master was, he used to reply, “I used to be the close follower of Abd as-Salam ibn Mashish,
but still I am drinking the water of wisdom from five ponds Jibril, Mikhail, Israfil, Izra’il, Rooh.” Shaykh Abul-Abbas al-Mursi (d. 1288), who succeeded Shaykh ash-Shadhili as the spiritual master of the Order, was asked about the knowledge of his spiritual master and replied, “He gave me forty sciences. He was an ocean without a shore.” He taught his close followers to lead a life of contemplation and remembrance of Allah while performing the normal everyday activities of the world. He disliked initiating any would-be follower unless that person already had a profession. His admonition to his close followers was to apply the teachings of Islam in their own lives in the world and to transform their existence. Shadhili wrote several devotional recitations, prayers and letters, some of which remain today. One of the best known poems is his “Litany of the Sea” hizb al-Bahr)

AL-MAHDI’S APPEARANCE IS RELIEF FOR THE UMMAH
Mawlana Sheikh Muhammad Adil ar-Rabbani 08 January 2024/ 26 Jumada al-Thani 1445 Aswan, Egypt
As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh. A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. Wa ṣ-Salātu wa s-Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-Awwalīna wa l-Akhirīn. Madad yā RasūlAllāh, Madad yā Sādāti Aṣḥābi Rasūlillāh, Madad yā Mashāyikhinā, Dastūr Mawlana Sheikh Abdullāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistāni, Sheikh Muḥammad Nāẓim al-Ḥaqqānī. Madad.
Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.
Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَكُونُوا۟ مَعَ ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ
(Qur’ān 09:119).
‘‘Yā ‘Ayyuhā l-Ladhīna ‘Āmanū t-Taqū l-Llaha Wa Kūnū Ma’a s-Sādiqīn’’
‘’O you who have believed, fear Allah and be with the truthful.’’
Insha’Allah we always ask that we be with the truthful ones. AlhamduliLlah Allāh ﷻ sends the righteous and we meet them. Whoever is destined to go somewhere will come from anywhere in the world and go there. AlhamduliLlah, today, this year, in this month, insha’Allah this meeting is blessed with you, the people of As-Saʻīd (Upper Egypt), the people of Sufism, the lovers of the Messenger of Allāh ﷻ salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, the lovers of Ahlu l-Bayt, the lovers of the righteous ones and the Awliya.
AlhamduliLlah, “هََٰ ذَا مِن فَضْلِ رَبِِّي لَكُم”,
“Hadha Min Fadhli Rabbi Lakum”,
“This is from the grace of my Lord for you.” Because now there are Fitan (discords) in the world. Shaytan is adorning for them the falsehood as it is the truth.
They don’t like to honor whom Allāh ﷻ honored. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla honored our Prophet Muhammad salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, and those on his ﷺ way from Ahlu l-Bayt, the righteous ones, the companions and the Awliya. He ﷻ honored
them all. This exists here in this country, in Egypt in general and in As-Saʻīd in particular: AlhamduliLlah the love of the Messenger of Allah , ﷺ and the love of all the companions. There is no differentiation between the companions. Whoever differentiates between the companions is against our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.
Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says :
ِ أصحابي كالنِّجوم بأيِّهم اِقتديتُم اِهتديتُم
“Aṣhābī kā n-nujūm bi ayyihim qtadaytum htadaytum”
“My companions are as the stars. Whichever you follow, you will be in Hidayah (guided).” This is the saying of the Messenger of Allāh ﷻ salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. He ﷺ said, “My companions, my beloved ones.” Do you know better than the Prophet ﷺ? AstaghfiruLlah. Ḥāshā! (far from it). Ḥāshā and never! What our Holy Prophet ﷺ says is upon the head and the eye. If this head and eye do not accept, there is no need for the head or the eye. There is no need at all. He mustn’t say: “I follow the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ. I am a Muslim. I am a scholar. I am learned. You Sufis are polytheists. You do not follow the Qur’an. You do not follow the Prophet ﷺ”
Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam speaks words from his ﷺ honorable mouth, we must follow them. These are the instructions of the Messenger of Allāh, salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Because all the people of Sufism have taken from a chain from the Messenger of Allah, salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam: one by one, one by one until it reaches this time.
Those who do not take from the Messenger of Allah salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam are these new movements that came after the Messenger of Allah salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. They have no connection to Sayyidina Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Here [in this case], their way is fundamentally corrupt. From the days of Sayyidina Abu Bakr radiya Llahu ‘anhu, Sayyidina Omar radiya Llahu ‘anhu, Sayyidina Othman radiya Llahu ‘anhu and Sayyidina Ali radiya Llahu ‘anhum: Fitan appeared after them. Those [corrupt ones] have no connection with the Messenger of Allah salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.
The connection is through Sayyidina Abu Bakr radiya Llahu ‘anhu, through Sayyidina Ali Karrama Llahu Wajhah (May Allah exalt his face). All of them sought from the Messenger of Allah salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, reaching to the Messenger of Allah salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. This is the beauty that we see in your country, in Aswan and in the rest of the cities and places, the people of As- Saʻīd, the lovers of Allāh ﷻ, the lovers of the Messenger of Allāh , ﷺ, the lovers of Awliya’uLlah.
“بِهِم تُمْ طَرُون، بِهِم تُر ْ زَقُون ، بِهِم تُنْصَرُون”,
“Bihim tumṭarūn, bihim turzaqūn, bihim tunṣarūn.”
“Rain falls upon you by their Barakah. Rizq (provision) comes to you by their means. You reach victory by their means.”
Our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam said that about his ﷺ , Awliya, about the Aqtāb (poles), about the Abdāl (subsitutes) and about the Awtād (pillars). These are the inheritors of the Messenger of Allah, salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.
AlhamduliLlah in this month, insha’Allah after two days, there is a blessed night. And it happens alhamduliLlah that we will be in Egypt insha’Allah: it is Laylatul Ragha’ib. This is a blessed night. Whoever can – we are now traveling, if we weren’t traveling we would have fasted on Thursday. And Thursday night will be the night of [entry] of the month of Rajab insha’Allah. In our country, the calendar is set according to calculations. They say it [the first of Rajab] is on Friday. Insha’Allah it is Friday, according to the moon.
This is a blessed month, the month of Allāh ﷻ. The month of Sha’ban is the month of our Holy Prophetﷺ, the Messenger of Allah, salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa- sallam. Ramadan is the month of the Ummah (nation). These three months are blessed months insha’Allah. It will be Barakah and goodness for Ummati Muhammad ﷺ, victory and conquest for the Ummati Muhammad ,ﷺ
We are in a difficult time; we are in the end of times. Almost all of these signs that the Messenger of Allah , salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam told about appeared. The Messenger of Allah , salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam , is a prophet ﷺ; prophet means prophecy. He ﷺ tells about the future, what will happen until the Day of Resurrection. The Messenger of Allah, salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, says the truth in what he ﷺ said. Most of the signs that show the nearness of Qiyamah has appeared. Now insha’Allah there are major signs appearing. Insha’Allah Sayyidina Al-Mahdi – the biggest sign insha’Allah will be the appearance of Sayyidina Al- Mahdi ‘alayhi s-salam and the descent of Sayyidina ‘Isa ‘alayhi s-salam. They will fight disbelief and spread Islam. Allāh ﷻ promised those who believed, and the Messenger of Allah, salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam promised that the whole world will be Muslim insha’Allah. The whole world will be in Islam. We ask Allāh ﷻ that it is near, a relief for the Ummah, a relief for humanity as well. Humanity now – the whole world is in darkness, in oppression, continuous oppression. This oppression and darkness will be wiped out by the king, the just Sultan, the Sultan, our master Al-Mahdi ‘alayhi s-salam, and he will reveal light and relief insha’Allah.
May Allāh ﷻ make us reach these days insha’Allah.
Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

SEEKING KNOWLEDGE IS A RESPONSIBILITY
Mawlana Sheikh Muhammad Adil ar-Rabbani 10 January 2024/ 28 Jumada al-Thani 1445
Hakkani Madrassah – Cairo Sheikh Ali (founder of the Madrassa) Indeed it is a noble Qur’an
نَزَلَ بِهِ ٱلرُّوحُ ٱلْأَمِينُ
عَلَىٰ قَلْبِكَ لِتَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلْمُنذِرِينَ
(Qur’an 26:193-194)
“Nazala Bihi Ar-Rūĥu Al-‘Amīn”(193)
“Alá Qalbika Litakūna Mina Al-Mundhirīn”“The Trustworthy Spirit has brought it down (193)
Upon your heart, [O Muhammad] – that you may be of the warners.”
(Qur’an 26:193-194)
O Friend, bear witness to the light of Ar-Rahman in Muhammad bin Nazim Al-Haqqani. With his light, the morning came and the sun which illuminates the path for the blinds shone. With his knowledge, the ignorant became a teacher who guides with his wisdom the footsteps of the bewildered. O my Master, you are the succorer and you are to me like the soul and blood running in my artery. You instilled life in us and Egypt revived with your light Indeed, you are the blessing of these universes.
Egypt’s paths and soil were honored and with you rejoiced was the sound of the walls. Egypt’s paths and soil were honored and with you rejoiced was the sound of the walls. So pour forth upon us from your light a bright shine and spurt a drink from you for the thirsty.
Mawlana Sheikh Muhammad came directly from the airport here to honor the Hafidh of the Qur’an, and this is not new of him. He did not accept to rest, may Allāh ﷻ be pleased with him and please him. He is the successor of Mawlana Sheikh Nazim, may Allāh ﷻ be pleased with him and please him, who, if he heard the voice of the Adhan, would rise at once, and stand up in honor of the rituals of Allāh ﷻ
ذَٰلِكَ وَمَن يُعَظِّمْ شَعَـٰٓئِرَ ٱللَّهِ فَإِنَّهَا مِن تَقْوَى ٱلْقُلُوبِ
Dhālika Wa man yu’azzim sha’ā’ira Allāhi‘ fa innahā min taqwa l-qulūb’’
“That [has been commanded], and whoever honors the symbols of Allah – indeed, it is from the piety of hearts.’ (Qur’ān 22:32). If he heard his ﷺ name, salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, he stood up crying ;
ذَٰلِكَ وَمَن يُعَظِّمْ حُرُمَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّهُۥ عِندَ رَبِّهِ
“Dhālika Wa Man Yu`ažžim Ĥurumāti Allāhi Fahuwa‘ Khayrun Lahu `Inda Rabbihi’’
“That [has been commanded], and whoever honors the sacred ordinances of Allah – it is best for him in the sight of his Lord.’’ (Qur’ān22:30). May Allāh ﷻ be pleased with him and please him. He fought against Bid’ah and established the Sunnah. Even one hundred and twelve cases were filed against him for the case of calling the Adhan. He called the Adhan in Arabic in a time when Turkey banned calling the Adhan in Arabic. He was only afraid from Allāh Almighty. We listen to an advice for our students from Mawlana, Sayyidi.
As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh. A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. Wa ṣ-Salātu wa s-Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-Awwalīna wa l-Akhirīn. Madad yā RasūlAllāh, Madad yā Sādāti Aṣḥābi Rasūlillāh, Madad yā Mashāyikhinā, Dastūr Mawlana Sheikh Abdullāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistāni, Sheikh Muḥammad Nāẓim al-Ḥaqqānī. Madad.
Tariqatuna aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.
Sheikh Ali, may Allāh ﷻ be pleased with him, spoke words we are not worthy of. Masha’Allah when we arrived, we were honored with Awliya’uLlah, Ahlul-Bayt, Sayyidina Al-Hussein, Sayyidatuna Zaynab and Nafisa At-Tahira, and Imam Al-Shafi’i. All of these: we are not an atom next to them. But AlhamduliLlah we come to take honor from them, we take light from their radiance: those whose light was illumination for the Islamic nation, for the nation of Muhammad ﷺ. With their Barakah, all these students and knowledge is overflowing to the Islamic nation all over the world. Here is the head of real knowledge alhamduliLlah, knowledge from the Messenger of Allah, salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, the truth, the way of the Messenger of Allah, salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. As our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam said, in the end of times, the nation will be divided into seventy-three sects, only one is saved. And they are the ones who keep on the way of Sayyidina Muhammad salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. AlhamduliLlah they exist now; there are righteous scholars and righteous Mashayikh.
AlhamduliLlah we now thank Allāh ﷻ for this blessing: a great blessing. Students come here, benefit and be of benefit. A big Fitnah happened, after the caliphs of the family of Othman, there is no Islamic caliphate. They found it empty so they spread poisons in this nation, into the body of this nation wanting to kill it.
AlhamduliLlah, although there has become a lot of disease, now there is Masha’Allah a counterattack against these bad ideas and deviant thoughts. The light appears insha’Allah. Light will prevail in the world with these disciples, the seekers of knowledge whom Allāh ﷻ has honored. All angels put their wings under the feet of the seekers of knowledge. That’s a great honoring.
Seeking knowledge is a duty upon every Muslim. A Muslim must learn knowledge. It is an obligation for a Muslim to strive to find someone to teach him.
If there are no sincere and pious ones who follow the Sunnah of our Holy Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, they will find other people who will mislead them.So you are responsible. The seeker of knowledge is responsible to teach what he has learned: the right way, the Sunnah and the Qur’an insha’Allah. This is very important. Zakat, “The Zakat of [acquiring] knowledge is teaching it.” The Messenger of Allah, salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, also said that the scholar who does not teach is responsible; he will be punished.
This now is a sensitive point. “Seeking knowledge is a duty upon every Muslim” learning is to be with someone who’s connected to the Messenger of Allāh ﷻ You all insha’Allah, the scholars who are here, all have a connection. How is the connection? The connection is by the Madhhab: to follow a Madhhab of the four Madhhabs. And also to be in Tariqah. The Tariqah with the Madhhab is necessary.
Knowledge without Sufism is not applicable. Sufism means sincerity, sincerity with Allāh ﷻ. Everything is from beneficence. This is the beneficence described by the Messenger of Allah salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam: Iman (faith) and I’hsan (beneficence). Beneficence is very important. If there’s no sincerity and beneficence, there will be no benefit. Insha’Allah there will be. May Allāh ﷻ bless you.
We studied at Al-Fath Islamic School in Damascus. AlhamduliLlah it was a very good school, and the strongest school in Shari’ah and in Tariqah as well. The professors used to give us – the school was for free, [the professors] were also paying money, [Mawlana says again the word “money” in the Egyptian dialect]. You don’t know [the word] “money [in Levantine Arabic].” [Mawlana laughs] Every month they pay us money. And when the seven years of schooling is over, in the last year they say: “We don’t forgive you if you don’t teach this knowledge in your country.” This is very important. Insha’Allah may Allāh ﷻ forgive us and forgive you. You are sincere, those who came here came sincerely.
Insha’Allah may Allāh ﷻ increase knowledge by their means, and increase the righteous scholars insha’Allah, on the right path, on the straight path insha’Allah, with the blessing of Sayyidina Muhammad salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, and with the secret of Surat Al-Fatiha.
This private organization is dedicated to reserving the genealogy, documents and records of the desendents of the prophet Mohammed صلى الله عليه و سلم.

THE LAND OF THE RIGHTEOUS
As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh.
A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.
Wa ṣ-Salātu wa s-Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-Awwalīna wa l-Akhirīn.
Madad yā RasūlAllāh, Madad yā Sādāti Aṣḥābi Rasūlillāh, Madad yā Mashāyikhinā,
Dastūr Mawlana Sheikh Abdullāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistāni, Sheikh Muḥammad Nāẓim
al-Ḥaqqānī. Madad. Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.
Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:
نَ وُنسِ حْ مْ مهُ نَ يذَِّلاوَّ اوَقَّتا نَ يذَِّلا عَ مَ ََّ نَِّإ
(Qur’ān 16:128). ‘Inna Llāha ma‘a lladhīna it-taqaw wa lladhīna hum muḥsinūn’, ‘Indeed, Allah is with those who fear Him and those who are doers of good.’ Sadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm.
In this Ayah, Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says that Allāh ﷻ is with us, with those who believe and fear their Lord and those who do good. AlhamduliLlah. O Allāh ﷻ make us among them. This is the way of prosperity, the way of success, the way to win paradise. Two days ago, Saif said: “This man is Masha’Allah sincere, trustworthy.” I told him, “This is a smart man.” He who is sincere and trustworthy will be a winner in this world and in the hereafter. Who is not trustworthy, traitor, cheater, liar, he is the stupidest among the stupid. He thinks he is smart, that he is “Falhawi”, as the Egyptians say. He has no mind; his mind is as small as a bird.
Because whoever wins him – he is always in fear, always in anxiety, there is no Barakah with him always. He is not satisfied, although Allāh ﷻ showed him the straight path, the path of happiness, the path of victory in this world and in the hereafter. Who has also done something wrong in this world is afraid. In the smallest matter, even when he walks in the streets, he is afraid. “If the police arrest me, or if this one whom I’ve cheated sees me then insults me or beats me.” He is always worried. Whoever does a mistake in this world, if he asks forgiveness from Allāh ﷻ, Allāh ﷻ will of course forgive him. But if he harms people or takes their rights unjustly, he must ask Allāh ﷻ for forgiveness and ask for forgiveness from
those whom he have harmed. There’s no shame in that. Allāh ﷻ forgives him insha’Allah. And for those whom he harmed or wronged, if he asks them for forgiveness they most of the time forgive him. AlhamduliLlah I’ve reached this age. I’ve got hundreds of stories from this
example. Whoever does something wrong, if he harmed people, he cannot have benefit in this world. The benefit is little. And these, so that Allāh ﷻ will hold them accountable in the hereafter, He ﷻ will give them in this world. He gives them so that their punishment is bigger. For most of those who cheat or think they are winning, there is never a profit. Loss, always a loss. Allāh ﷻ punishes them in this world before the hereafter. This is the system of Allāh ﷻ. The saying of Allāh ﷻ, and Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is the Most Truthful among those who speak. This is depicted by Allāh ﷻ in the Qur’an and in the Hadith Qudsi, and on the tongue of our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. All this is said by our Holy Prophet Muhammad ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.
Who doesn’t accept this, says “Europe does this.” He says, “This is civilization, this is advancement. If you want to be at the level of our civilization you have to go down, down, below, go down.” Today we passed by a canal, smells terrible. The civilization of Europe is not to go upwards but to go down, downwards, down with rats, with mosquitoes, with microbes, with insects. “This is civilization. If you want to descend into our civilization you must be like us.” This is the civilization of shaytan and his helpers. They think they are doing good for themselves. They are harming the world and the world is being harmed by them.
They know the truth but don’t like to follow it. This is from their egos. Their ego doesn’t want this. The shaytan doesn’t want this. Now, even the citizens of their countries say: “What they teach us is against human values, against humanity even.” If the situation remains like this, humanity will not remain. This is over on the apparent and inside. It is over. As we say, it went down to the lowest of the low, the most despicable. It became the dirtiest thing. It is a mask. Whoever looks with the truth, even with the naked eye sees their situation. But there are many people who are cheated by them. They wish to be like them. That’s something that doesn’t benefit; it harms and doesn’t benefit.
AlhamduliLlah in this trip we were in southern Egypt. We passed through villages with no water, mountains without trees, no grass. Poor villages. Poor but rich: poor apparently, rich spiritually. They are among the accepted ones for Allāh ﷻ. In their villages, in their homes you see that there is poverty, but alhamduliLlah you see joy on their faces or in their actions that you do not find in Europe or America. Especially America, may Allāh ﷻ improve Muslims, improve people. They think America is paradise. If a person strives as much as he does to go to America, he will enter paradise a hundred times. SubhanAllah people. May Allāh ﷻ protect us and you, and open our hearts and your hearts insha’Allah, and our eyes until we see the truths.
AlhamduliLlah in Egypt, this is also the land of scholars, the land of companions, the righteous Awliya and Aqtab in this country, a very blessed country. I think yesterday we visited about 20-30 mausoleums, all of which are Masha’Allah Ahlu l-Bayt, the grandchildren of our Holy Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, Caliphs, those who were in authority, scholars, Awliya in Cairo, and also everywhere. I sometimes read the scholars and Awliya present. We read over a thousand and there are more too. Every time it is written in the newspaper, it is written every time that there was in Cairo, in Damietta, here and there. Your
country was Masha’Allah a center for scholars, Awliya and Aqtab (poles). With their Barakah this country will be AlhamduliLlah on the straight path. They tried to ruin it a lot. The ancient scholars and those who came after them stood against those who wanted to change, to change Islam according to his opinion. AlhamduliLlah because they were truthful, they were protected. These cheaters have been punished by Allāh ﷻ in this world before the hereafter. Because these wanted to subvert Islam. A lot of groups are cheated by them. Many groups think they are the ones who defend Islam. The defenders of Islam are the Awliya, the righteous ones and Aqtab present in this country. Because they tried to do so, the Awliya did not accept that, they imposed upon them the oppressors who took them and saved
people from them. AlhamduliLlah nine days have passed. Insha’Allah tomorrow we will travel from here. It was a blessed trip insha’Allah. May Allāh ﷻ protect this country and its
rulers insha’Allah. Insha’Allah all of them are people of piety. I heard they have counselors. They consult them in the work they do if they are correct according to the religion or against it. AlhamduliLlah that is enough. This is a blessing. The greatest blessing is that the ruler is obedient, a believer in his prayers, in his works. Allāh ﷻ blesses him and the people of the country. In a Hadith, Sayyidina Muhammad ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam says, “Do not swear at the Sultans.” When you swear at them, and you do the opposite of their order, there is no benefit; there is harm. Make Dua in prayer, make Dua for Barakah insha’Allah.
May Allāh ﷻ bless you. May Allāh ﷻ protect this country and give Rizq to the poor and for the children to be righteous children. AlhamduliLlah we saw Masha’Allah goodness in many, in the south and in the north, but in the south more. There are righteous people, children who are learning religion, they are teaching them religion. This made us happy. Our heart is very happy with these scenes. May Allāh ﷻ grant this to our country. Our country is done. Our country, what can we say? May Allāh ﷻ improve them. Mawlana Sheikh Nazim, our father
says: “I brought to Islam thousands of Europeans, atheists, infidels, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, but in Cyprus not one. May Allāh ﷻ improve them.
