Assalamu aleykum wa Rahmatullah, dear brothers and sisters,

Again this year Sheikh Mehmed Nazim goes for Umrah with a group, the first 5 days, which are the last 5 days of Ramadan, InshaAllah,  we’ll be in Medina, on Eid day we intend to arrive Mecca, and there we’ll make Umrah, see Programm.

We were informed that the Eid days belong to Ramadan, and our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that whoever performs Umrah in Ramadan, is as if he made Hajj with me.

So we hope for this acceptance, especially in a time where Hajj fees became unaffordable expensive the last years.

Bismillāhi-r-Rahmāni-r-Rahim. Welcome!

GUIDANCE TO ENGLAND Mawlana Sheikh Muhammad Adil ar-Rabbani

14 February 2024/ 04 Sha’ban 1445 Fajr Prayer, Akbaba Dergah

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.

Insha’Allah we are going on a trip to England today. We are going to travel to many places insha’Allah. There are Muslims and Muslim converts in these places. Mawlana Shaykh Nazim had gone there for years. He brought guidance there, and people went there from all over the world. He used to stay for nearly three months. Muslims who came there joined Tariqah, and non-Muslims joined Islam by listening to him. They were honored with Islam. Islam is an honor. Therefore, wherever Islam goes, there is light. Wherever it doesn’t go, there is darkness and badness. Certainly, shaytan doesn’t sit still. Shaytan strives to destroy it.

Shukr to Allah ﷻ, there is the largest Dergah of Mawlana Shaykh Nazim in London. It is in the heart of Kufr in order to destroy Kufr insha’Allah.The intention of Mawlana Shaykh Nazim was to destroy Kufr. What is Kufr? Kufr is badness, nothing else. Mawlana Shaykh Nazim wanted goodness to come there. He strived for the light of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla to spread everywhere. That was his intention. Allah ﷻ rewarded him according to his intention and raised his rank. His Karamat are going on, Shukr to Allah ﷻ He is the means of guidance for people even from Barzakh. He helps them come to  the right way. May Allah ﷻ increase his rank. Insha’Allah his way is continuous.

Why should we go to those places? Because Kufr is at its most there, as we said. There are many Muslims. But there is big danger as well. Shaytan is doing everything he can to take them out of the way and to break them. Therefore, we must build the castles of Iman. We must keep them on. Our intention is to follow the same way of Mawlana Shaykh Nazim in order to bring guidance to people and so that people’s Iman gets strengthened.

They ask why we need Tariqah. It is for strengthening Iman. Without Iman, you are without faith. You may be Muslim. But to have Iman, to have faith means to be a stronger Muslim. Being a Muslim means, we are not going to attack them to destroy Kufr, to break and scatter it. We are striving so that the mercy, compassion and light of Allah ﷻ reach there.

May Allah ﷻ help us and our brothers on this way there. May people reach guidance there insha’Allah..

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

• Friday 16/02 Jumma

Shaykh Mehmet Adil Al-Haqqani, Sohbet of the 16th February 2024, Rumi House Nelson, UK.

What is the benefit of Tariqah? There are heedless people who say no need for Tariqah and there is no benefit from this. Those who say this have no wisdom and give no benefit to human beings. 

Tariqah is meaning the complete perfect perfection; without Tariqah you cannot find perfection. Tariqah is showing every beauty of Islam what Prophet‎ﷺ brought and without Tariqah many people they lose their way and they are going to destroy themselves and others. 

One example like this was when we enter here they were making a qasida but this qasida was like some governments in this world who torture people and place noise and light in front of people 24 hours a day – when we entered it was like this. 

Those who make qasida it is very nice but those who don’t know how to use the speaker it was torturing us. When it was fixed it was very good but before it was torturing us. Tariqah is giving the perfection for everything not only for praying but for a whole life. 

Prophet‎ﷺ showed us everything about human life and what is beneficial and happiness for the human from the smallest detail and the biggest Prophet‎ﷺ showed us this. Without following the sunnah of Prophet‎ﷺ we cannot have perfection.

Many times we give this example; an engine of a car if you open it apart you may throw small parts away and at the end it won’t run – small parts they you are not happy. After, the engine is not running. This car made from iron with nothing Inside cannot run. 

If you leave Imaan your belief becomes less and less. Sometimes people they will leave islam. 

A hundred years after khilapha it was being said that there is no need for Tariqah we will throw this away and after this they said no need for madhab. So many people they said ok and agreed. All of this was a protection for our belief. 

Tariqah is the most strong support for our belief and after this madhab. Those who said this they were bad scholars and it was described by the Prophet‎ﷺ what would happen to them at the end of time. These people said no need for a second thought they destroyed; Tariqah and madhab. 

Many bad scholars from east and west also say no need for Hadith; the third part of Islam they tried to destroy – Hadith. 

They say only Quran we need to follow; they call them Quranist – like fascist. Now we also hear about the Quran they say it is too much and we should take things out. 

Many people are attacking Tariqah and tassuwuf how it is not important but they should not say this – it is not right. Forty or fifty years ago if there was someone not in Tariqah people still respected Awliyah, Ahle Bait and Ulema but now it is coming a time where shaitaan he controls them and they take his example – people think if we do such a thing we will be more clever than other people who follow the old system. 

There are two periods of ignorance and we are in the second time of ignorance. The first time of ignore was when people didn’t accept Islam but at the end they accepted what Prophet‎ﷺ brought and they spread the light of Islam. 

Now this second period of ignorance is worse, it is darker. Now they have everything but they don’t have good thinking. Who has good thinking becomes a believer because this is like a sun shining. Those who are blind see no sun, still the sun shines and they are in darkness. 

Our time is really very dark but it is also the most valuable for believers who will have endless blessings and rewards from Allah ﷻ. Prophet‎ﷺ was saying at the end of time who is holding Iman is like holding fire in his hand. We are in this time Allah ﷻ save us and keep us in Imaan. 

We are in the most dark time but the light of Islam will come and we believe in this. 

Tariqah people must be happy with what Allah ﷻ gave them and where they are and what they are doing. Tariqah people must have adab and not be complaining of difficult times. Allah ﷻ will reward us for not complaining and saying why are we in this time? We wish to be in a time better than this.

WE ARE HIS ﷺ LOVERS

Mawlana Sheikh Muhammad Adil ar-Rabbani

17 February 2024/ 07 Sha’ban 1445

Fajr Prayer – Noor ul Islam Mosque; Bury, UK

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.

In shā’a Llāh [we will make Sohbah] two minutes for nasīḥah (advice). This is the way of mashāyikh. Mawlānā Shaykh was saying after Fajr prayer to begin the day with good nasīḥah, good word in shā’a Llāh. Two words for Barakah in shā’a Llāh.

We are, as we said, we are living in a difficult time. But in this time – Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam praised the believer, Mu’min in this time. He ﷺ said for the ṣaḥābah asking, “Who are your lovers? Are we your lovers?” He ﷺ said, “You are my companions, ṣaḥābah. You are Aṣ’ḥābi. My lovers are [the people] in the end of times. They didn’t see me, and they love me. I love them also.” This is what Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ʿalayhi wa sallam is saying.

And he ﷺ is saying for the ṣaḥābah, “When you practice, you must practice a hundred percent of what you see from me. If you make ninety-nine, you will be – I will not be happy with you”, he ﷺ said. “But these, my lovers, if they do one from a hundred, they are good. It is enough for them. And there’s no harm for them.”

For this we are, of course, as you see in the whole world, Muslims are only practicing maybe one percent of what the Ṣaḥābah were practicing, they are doing. We are only doing, in shā’a Llāh we can do one percent. It’s also a very big thing for us. In shā’a Llāh Allāh ﷻ helps us.

And we are lucky people to be from the nation of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ʿalayhi wa sallam. This is the biggest honor for us and we must be happy with this. As much we can praise Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam, we must praise. Don’t listen to these people. They are jealous from the beginning, since Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam’s time. Still until now, and until Qiyāmah, they will be jealous. Who prevents praising Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ʿalayhi wa -sallam, he is jealous from Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam. So jealousy is from the bad attributes, the first attribute of shayṭān.

May Allāh ﷻ keep us away from shayṭān.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

Shaykh Mehmet Adil Al-Haqqani, Asr Sohbet of the 17th February 2024, Bradford Dergah, UK.

Ṭarīqatunā ṣṣuḥbah wa l-khayru fi l-jam‘iyyah

Nasihah is saying good things, Prophet Muhammed‎ﷺ said “to keep advice, it is important.” Prophet Muhammed‎ﷺ said, “he who gives advice, must be honest.”

If somebody is not honest, can give you bad advice and you will not benefit from this advice, it may harm you. Allah ﷻ said, “Be with honest people,”- be with good people, not with those only thinking about their benefit.

Normally it is not benefit, worse things they get.

Our duty is to also not be cheated by such people, we must be careful, to try and not make this mistake. By Mercy of Allah ﷻ  must make it that cannot succeed, but normally he loses.

Even if you don’t want to make them succeed, but you may be helping their success. This is why you must be awake to this, especially for religion, for everything, but for religion, this is very important, Prophet Muhammed‎ﷺ said. “at the end of times, there will be many ulema who will be speakers, but they will have no ilm, no knowledge.” In Prophet Muhammed‎ﷺ time, there was ilm but not everybody was speakers , they did not speak even though they had knowledge. They did not have self-pride.

But nowadays, they are speaking as if they know everything, what they are saying, it is wrong, and they are harming those who follow Islam. We must ask Allah ﷻ to hold us tight when we speak about Islam, religion, so we do not make mistakes. If we make mistakes without knowing, we ask for forgiveness from Allah ﷻ.

And if we do something and anybody who is here, someone here says that this is not right, it is like this, then don’t be angry, be happy with him, because he has saved you from being in sin.

We are human beings, Allah ﷻ  created us, we sin, everyday we make sins, but do not persist in wrong and bad things. Do not think that, ‘my opinion is right, I say only good things, I am not saying any bad things.’ You are not a Prophet, you are not masum, everybody can say some wrong things.

This is what we must accept, especially for tariqah people. Of course everybody have some issues. They know it is wrong but they still continue. Even if they are good Muslims, they have some custom from their country, from their tribe, from their ancestors, even they know that this is not what Allah ﷻ wants, but still insist on these things. For this we are asking, doing dhikr, maybe it is what we said, they must leave this, especially if it is not acceptable in faith.

We see many families not speaking to each other, this is not acceptable.  Prophet Muhammed‎ﷺ said, “Not more than three days,” after three days it is against what Prophet Muhammed‎ﷺ said. If you are not happy, it is not that you speak, As-salamu alaykum, Wa’ alaykumus salam, that is enough, many people cannot carry more than that, Other side are stubborn, you say As-salamu alaykum.

May Allah ﷻ forgive us and this is very important and this is nasihah for all people here.

If they do not say Wa’ alaykumus salam, you say Wa’ alaykumus salam for yourself, otherwise this salam is staying in the air.

May Allah ﷻ keep us safe, we are obeying for Allah ﷻ and for Prophet Muhammed‎ﷺ. may Allah ﷻ helps us

Shaykh Mehmet Adil Al-Haqqani, Fajr Sohbet of the 18th February 2024, Noor ul Islam Mosque, Bury, UK.

Ṭarīqatunā ṣṣuḥbah wa l-khayru fi l-jam‘iyyah

Mawlana Shaykh, he has many good words, one of them every time he would say, ‎وْمٌ جَديد، رِزْقٌ جَديد “Yawmun Jadeed, Rizqun Jadeed”. A new day, new rizq.

From Allah ‎ﷻ every day, a new day is coming. The old day is going, a new day is coming. With this comes new provisions for each person.

Allah ‎ﷻ gives to everybody his rizq, so there is no need to worry for rizq. When rizq finishes, even if you have the whole of this world, you cannot take one thing in your mouth, cannot take one breath, cannot take one drop of water. We should have Tawakkul, be dependent on Allah ‎ﷻ, not have doubt on this.

A believer must believe his rizq is coming from Allah ‎ﷻ. It reaches you, wherever you are, Allah ‎ﷻ has written this for you, nobody can take from you.

Allah ‎ﷻ give us rizq halal, because rizq everybody has, but some of them are not good and some are good. Allah ‎ﷻ give to make our bodies strong, to make our iman strong-give us pure rizq.

Wa min Allāhi tawfīq, al-Fātiḥah.

Shaykh Mehmet Adil Al-Haqqani, Sohbet of the 18th February 2024, Oldham, UK.

Ṭarīqatunā ṣṣuḥbah wa l-khayru fi l-jam‘iyyah

This is the main thing for Tariqah; to gather good people and to give nasihah. Tariqah and Sharia are the same, there is no difference and for people to get spiritual guidance there must be Tariqah also. The two are like wings, with one wing you cannot fly – there must be two.

For this, we see many people who are not  happy with Tariqah, they have half a thing and cannot do anything. Such people, many people can be around them, but when it comes to getting benefit – nothing, they are dry. With the knowledge of Allah ﷻ  we must be with Allah ﷻ .

Many people thinking Tariqah is a different way, but it is the same, only what is different is that which is connecting yourself with Mashaikh and Prophet‎ﷺ  – this is the only difference. When you take bayah you become connected to Prophet‎ﷺ  and this is not dry, this is a river –  a sweet river – sweet water giving life to dry earth becoming green and giving fruit and good things for people. No need to be afraid from Tariqah. Tariqah is the way of Prophet‎s.

We are not asking any benefit from you, we only want to take you from down to up, from dunya to heaven, this is our aim. Who runs after dunya, dunya is running from him. This is what people know but still they run after dunya. Prophet‎ﷺ  gave many hadiths that he is not happy with those who are running after dunya. As those who are running after dunya, dunya is running away from them. If you leave dunya, dunya is coming after you. This is what Tariqah is teaching people.

Sayyiduna Abdul Qadir Jilani left dunya for 25 years and went to the desert; he was not looking for anything after and when he came out of this seclusion the whole dunya was coming before him, but he was not looking for dunya but instead to make lessons for people. Although he was now dressing well, his example was 25 years nothing in the desert and when he came back to Baghdad, nothing changed for him – he did not have anything when he left and when he came, he also said he did not have anything but to teach Mureeds to follow Tariqah to teach that there is no difference between poorness and wealth. If they have wealth, it should not change their hearts and if they have nothing, it should not change their heart.

In dunya, if they have one small love for dunya, they will not be acceptable in the Divine Presence of Allah ﷻ . All dunya is what Allah ﷻ  gave to such people and they are thankful for this and to take it is not a problem for them. Real ulema and real Sahaba, they are like this, and not giving any importance for dunya.

Sayyiduna Abu Hanifa, when they put him in jail, forcing him to be a judge, he said I do not want to do this and he was very rich, not asking for any presents or bribes from anybody. These people are very sensitive, as they are writing the huqums for the ummah and so they were not caring for such things.  

In that time if you are a judge you must follow order from sultan or wazir or those high up. The Sultan of the time, he knew he was the best to be a judge, but he didn’t know the wisdom of why he was not accepting his orders and so he was beaten until he became shaheed but he did not accept the order of the Sultan.

Imam Jafar from our Silsila, he gave him spiritual training and blessing and so he became Imam-e-Azam and most Muslims now follow him even Imam Shafi he was taking benefit from the knowledge of Imam Abu Hanifa and these people are people of Allah ﷻ  and we are happy to be following them. Prophet‎ﷺ  also, he gave them many things and he said about Imam Abu Hanifa is that he would be keeping this religion of Islam and other Imams will take from his knowledge; he was very humble and accepted any wrong things or mistakes and he was keen to ask his students – his students became the biggest ulema of the time and after him they became the pillars of Islam.

Prophet‎ﷺ  in his time, the wisdom was not to mix between Qur’an and Hadith but after Prophet‎ﷺ  it was allowed and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr, Sayyiduna Umar and Sayyiduna Uthman, they were all writing. All Sahaba were Imams in the time of the Prophet‎ﷺ  but after Prophet‎ﷺ  and Sahaba passed away, there was need for a register to be kept and books to be written. In the time of Sayyiduna Umar, there was a register kept. After this time coming a new type of ulema who were shaytan, denying Hadith saying this is not acceptable. Real Ulema they were making istikhara seeing Prophet‎ﷺ  in their dreams and they approved hadith and with this they wrote.

There are some making doubt and destroying belief. We are giving one example but there are a thousand like Abu Hanifa who sacrificed themselves to keep this religion. They are alive until Qiyamah, all these ulema and people following them Allah ﷻ  reward them also. Prophet‎ﷺ  saying he who places people in the right way Allah  ﷻ  will reward him for each one placed in the right way. Allah  ﷻ  is not afraid to reward people until qiyamah, these ulema will be rewarded.

They were clever how they taught and were clever to advice people to follow the way of Prophet‎ﷺ . If you destroy someone’s belief, you will be punished for each person whose belief you destroy. These people, thinking they are becoming famous but they are losing the real light and value of things.

We are praising people such as Ulema, AwliyahAllah ﷻ , Sahaba all of them, we love them and we accept what they are saying – Ahle Sunnah Wal Jammah this is our way. We are accepting the whole of Sahaba and whole of Ahl ul Bayt, there is no difference -the one who makes differences Prophet‎ﷺ  is not happy with them. Prophet‎ﷺ  is saying my Companions, they are like stars and whoever is an enemy for them, I am an enemy for them and many Hadiths confirm this.

We are on the way of Prophet‎ﷺ , the way of AwliyahAllah ﷻ and the Saliheen. Maybe 40 or 50 years ago no one like these people existed but at the end of times, they will be growing like a cancer quickly destroying Islam and countries everywhere. They place doubt and destroy Islam and so we are asking Allah ﷻ to send his Sahib عليه السلام. People are being made to doubt so the only solution for this is what Prophet‎ﷺ  was saying; Sayyiduna Mahdi عليه السلام inshAllah ﷻ will come and clean all of this. Mawlana Shaykh Nazim was saying he will come with a with a big broom!

Allah ﷻ keep us safe and allow us to see these nice days without kufr without shirk and without doubt and the followers of shaytan. It will be a time of barakah and blessing; Imam Mahdi عليه السلام saying all these ugly concrete buildings will be taken and thrown into the oceans. All this concrete is illness with bad energy and it is created by communists.

We see many of these when you go to Uzbekistan or Russia you see these concrete buildings everywhere which gives hardness for the heart;  Allah ﷻ will give barakah for heavenly green everywhere it will be barakah without kufr and the whole world will be in peace and happiness and no poorness.

As Prophet‎ﷺ  was saying man he will go out to give zakah but he will not find anyone to take zakah, so he brings it and will give to the Bait-ul-maal as he must pay and it will be like a mountain of gold; no need for this they will say. InshAllah ﷻ this time is coming and we are hoping to be near and we ask Allah ﷻ ﷻ to send Imam Mahdi عليه السلام to save all of humanity

Allah ﷻ keep us safe.

Shaykh Mehmet Adil Al-Haqqani, Sohbet of the 19th February 2024, Rotherham, UK.

Ṭarīqatunā ṣṣuḥbah wa l-khayru fi l-jam‘iyyah

Allah ﷻ bless you, bless us, because we are gathering for the sake of Allah ﷻ, for the love of Prophet‎ﷺ, for the love of mashaikh. For believers to be together, this is Allah ﷻ showering His Mercy, so blessings for this gathering. He is Generous, Endless in Generosity, in Mercy, in Beauty. He is not afraid to finish. For this we are happy that this gathering happens.

It is Allah’s ﷻ Will for us to be together here today. And His Will to reward us, InshaAllah.

All these people, today is not the weekend, it is not like there is nothing to do, but people are coming, just leaving their houses and coming for the sake of Allah ﷻ. Allah ﷻ will reward us, InshaAllah. We are imitating believers, the Sahaba, we are on their way, the way of Allah ﷻ.

Our reason for creation, why did Allah ﷻ create us? Many people say, ‘Who am I?’ ‘What am I doing here,’ and this is not from yourself. The creator is Allah ﷻ and he put us on this Earth. Believers must be content and happy for this, because when somebody is not knowing who he is, then thinking ‘what is this life?’, ‘What is the purpose of this life?,’ then he will be unhappy, not happy at all.

Believers must be happy, but nowadays they are suffering from this ignorance, believers are imitating non-believers and thinking what they think, and doing what they do. Then after this, they say, ‘I have stress,’ ‘I am not happy.’ ‘I am not knowing why I’m like this.’  Believers are doing this!

This is not the thinking of a believer, not the way of a believer. The way of a believer is to accept what Allah ﷻ has given him, what Allah ﷻ granted him, he must be happy and thankful for each breath he is taking in this life.

Many crazy people are saying, ‘I want to die,’ ‘I want to kill myself,’ this is also a very bad thing. This is not acceptable. Outside on Earth is better than a thousand years under the Earth.

There was in time of Prophet‎ﷺ, two Sahaba, from the same tribe. They became Muslim together and were practising same time, doing 100% all the time what Allah ﷻhas ordered us. One of them became shaheed in a battle. The other one was alive and after one year he passed away following an illness. One of the Sahaba saw them in his dream and he saw that this Sahaba who passed away, he is higher than the shaheed. He was astonished and asked Prophet‎ﷺ why was this? Prophet‎ﷺ said “In one year he was praying, practising and worshipping,” so this one year of his life made him go higher.

For this reason every breath we take in this life, it is very precious for us. We must know this and we must thank Allah ﷻ for this. In every breath you remember Allah ﷻ, this is dhikr of Allah ﷻ; dhikr means remembering. By mind or by tongue , everything, we are remembering Allah ﷻ.

Allah ﷻ make you have higher and higher degrees. It is very important for believers, not time to waste, they have many things to do but it is important to remember Allah ﷻ. Don’t be boring, playing here and there, watching television, many things now that are making people be away from worshipping all night. They are looking at these machines and when it comes to the time to praying they are sleeping. Or not sleeping, some cannot sleep, day and night looking for these machines, like being hypnotised, nothing else. This is what is happening in our time.

This is making more unhappy people, darkness in their inside, darkness in their thinking. A believer, must make sure everything is for benefit, so he is winning by being rewarded by Allah ﷻ. If he is happy, he is winning, if he is not happy, he is winning, if he is laughing, winning, if he is crying, he is winning. Because he is with Allah ﷻ.

But for those who are not believers, [they] suffer without any benefit. For this, believers must know what Allah ﷻ gave them. And thank Allah ﷻ for what He gave us. This is a big favour from Allah ﷻ, He is giving every chance to people, He is not afraid this will be finished. But people, they are sleeping, they have not realised, not knowing what Allah ﷻ will give them. He is giving them but they are running after their desires- what the ego wants.

Then after this, they are saying, ‘we are not happy, we don’t love this life.’ They are looking for people to make them happy, running after shaytan’s games. Making people to forget Allah ﷻ, some people they have not seen reality, even some honest people. They believe them and not good people- because good people do not lie, but bad people, everything is a lie from beginning to end. They are happy with this, it becomes regular, even in this dunya, and for akhirah, it is worse. May Allah ﷻ keep us safe from these people.

This is a time in which everything is upside down. The good are seen as bad and the bad are seen as good. The dishonest they are not loving Him, the honest, they are loving Him. This is a sign of end of times and InshaAllah there will be change.

We don’t have any power with machines or weapons, or economically or anything. We are minus zero, but we have that which is more powerful than this weapon, we have dua, to pray, this is the most effective. When the time comes, all this weapon with one prayer will be finished and they won’t be able to use it.

InshaAllah we are waiting this time and it looks very near. As there is oppression, injustice, every bad things. After it reaches the top it must be going, must be finished. We are waiting for this.

Good tidings we have, we are believers and we believe for this in our belief of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamat.

This must be happening, for Prophet‎ﷺ everything he had taught us, it appeared. Only a few things left and time for them InshAllah and we hope to be in this time of justice. We hope to be in this good time. Justice is the most important thing for a human being, when justice is coming, everything is becoming good because nobody is oppressed and nobody is oppressing. Because this will happen, nobody will curse, It will be a time of barakah and happiness.

Of course this is before Judgement Day, it  must be time for this. Certain time, like 40 years, because after this, also because human beings, they have this ego, shaytan, until Judgment Day, they will be here. So this is only short time of 40 years. After 40 years, again coming, and after this believers will be, Allah ﷻ  sends some smoke and all believers will pass away, only disbelievers will again be there. Judgement Day will be on them.

And after this, Gardens of Paradise, InshaAllah. This is why believer must be happy- going to a good place.

Wa min Allāhi tawfīq, al-Fātiḥah.

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.

May Allāh ﷻ bless you and bless us because we are gathering for the sake of Allāh ﷻ, for the love of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ʿalayhi wa sallam, for the love of mashāyikh. When Mu’mins are together, Allāh ﷻ showers His ﷻ mercy and blessings upon this gathering, this Majlis. He ﷻ is generous and He ﷻ has endless generosity and mercy and whole beauty. He ﷻ is not afraid for this to finish.

For this, we are happy for this gathering to happen. Allāh ﷻ willed for us to be together here, and His ﷻ will is to reward us in shā’a Llāh. Because all these people are here today, not that it is the weekend or they have nothing to do. They are just coming, leaving their houses and coming for the sake of Allāh ﷻ. So Allāh Azza wa-Jalla will reward them shā’a Llāh.

We are imitating the Mu’mins, the Ṣaḥābah in shā’a Llāh. We are in their  way, way of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Which is the reason for our creation, why Allāh ﷻ created us. Many people are saying, these philosophers, “Who am I? What are we  doing here?” Eh, this is not from yourself. The Creator is Allāh Azza wa Jalla. He ﷻ created us and He ﷻ put us in this earth. The Mu’min, believer must be at rest and happy for this. Because when somebody is not knowing who he is and what this life is, what’s the purpose of this, he will be unhappy, not happy at all.

Believers must be happy. But nowadays they are affected with the non- believers. Non-believers are suffering from this ignorance. The believers also imitate them, doing what they are doing, thinking what they are thinking. After this they say, “I have stress. I’m not happy. I’m unhappy. I’m not knowing why I’m like this.” Believers are doing this. This is not the believer’s thinking, not the believer’s way, not the Mu’min’s way. The Mu’min’s way is to accept what Allāh ﷻ gave him, what Allāh ﷻ granted him. He must be happy and thankful for each breath he is taking in this life.

Many crazy people also say, “I want to die. I want to kill myself.” This is also a very bad thing. This is not acceptable. To have one breath outside on earth is better than a thousand years under earth. There was in the time of Prophet ṣalláLlāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam two ṣaḥābah. They are from the same tribe. They became Muslim together and they were practicing everything. Of course, in the time of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam; tahajjud, all Sunnahs, farḍ, of course, all of this. They were doing a hundred percent of what Allāh ﷻ ordered us. There was a battle and one of them became shahīd. The other one was alive. After one year, he also passed away. He got some illness and passed away. One of the ṣaḥābah saw them in his dream. He saw the ṣaḥābah who passed away [with illness] after the

shahīd, that he is higher than the shahīd. He was astonished and asked Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ʿalayhi wa sallam, “How can this be?” Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ʿalayhi wa sallam said, “In one year, he was praying, practicing, worshipping. In one year, because he is alive, he became higher than the other.” For this, every breath we take in this life is very precious for us. We must know this. We must thank Allāh ﷻ for this. And in every breath you remember Allāh ﷻ, this is the dhikr of Allāh ﷻ. Dhikr means remembering. Whether by mind or by tongue or by everything you are remembering Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla, Allāh ﷻ makes you in a higher and higher degree.

This is very important for the believer. In order not to have a time to be bored, they have many things to do. But what they must to do, what’s important is to remember Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. If you’re just in order not to be bored playing here, there, everything, television. There are many things now making people to be away from worshipping. All night they are looking at this machine and when the time for praying comes they are sleeping, or not even sleeping. Now also they cannot sleep. Some of them are day and night looking at this machine like hypnosis, not thinking about anything else.

This is what is happening in our time. And this is making people more unhappy, having more darkness inside them, darkness in their thinking. But the Mu’min who is with Allāh ﷻ must know that everything is for our benefit. He is winning. He is winning reward from Allāh ﷻ. If he is happy, he is winning. If he is not happy, also winning. If he is crying, winning. If he is laughing, winning. Because he is with Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. But who is not a believer, there is no [winning]. Only suffering without any benefit.

For this, the believer must know what Allāh ﷻ gave them and thank Allāh ﷻ for what He ﷻ gave us.This is a big Ni’mah, a big favor from Allāh Azza wa-Jalla. Allāh Azza wa-Jalla is giving every chance for people to get from this jewel, from this precious thing. He ﷻ is not afraid for it to finish.

But people, as we said, are sleeping.

وَهُمْ فِى غَفْلَةٍ مُّعْرِضُونَ

Wa Hum Fī Ghaflatin Mu`riđūn”

“While they are in heedlessness turning away.” (Qur’ān 21:01).

They do not realize. Ghaflah meaning not knowing what Allāh ﷻ will give them. And He ﷻ gave them but they are still running after their desires, after what their ego wants. And after this, they are saying, “We are not happy. We don’t love this life.” And they are looking at people to make them happy. Running after shayṭān’s game, which is making people forget Allāh ﷻ and depend on some people which are in reality not even honest people. They believe them, and do not believe good people. Because good people are not giving them lies, not lying to them. But bad people: everything is a lie from beginning to end. And they are happy with this.

After that, they become in regret. Even in this dunyā they become in regret. For Ākhirah, it’s worse. May Allāh ﷻ keep us safe from these people in shā ‘a Llāh. This is the time when everything is upside down. They see the good as bad. They see the bad as good. They are not loving the honest ones. They are happy with the dishonest ones. This is the end of times and in shā’a Llāh it will change.

We don’t have any power with machines or weapons or economic or anything. We don’t have. We are minus zero. But what we have is (more) stronger than these weapons, all of these weapons. We have du’ā’, praying. This is the most effective one. When the time comes, all this weapon will be finished with one prayer. They cannot use it. In shā’a Llāh we are waiting for this time and it looks very near.

Because the oppression, injustice, every bad thing has come to the top (peak). After the top, it must go and finish. We are waiting for this. We have good tidings. We believe in this. We are believers. We believe in this, in our belief of Ahlu s-Sunnah wa l -Jamā’ah. This must happen. Because everything Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ʿalayhi wa sallam told us has appeared. Only a few things are left and in shā’a Llāh this is the time for them in shā’a Llāh.

We hope to be in this good time, time of justice. Justice is the most important thing for human beings. When justice comes, everything becomes good because there’s nobody oppressed and nobody oppressing. When this happens, people become happy, nobody cursing the other. And it will be Barakah and happiness. And of course before Qiyāmah, Judgment Day, there must be a time for this, a certain time, maybe forty years. After this also, because human beings have  this ego, shayṭān which will be here until Qiyāmah. For this, only for a short time, forty years. After forty years, again coming. And after this, Allāh ﷻ will send some smoke and all Mu’mins will pass away. Only the kāfirs will be there again and this Qiyāmah will be on them. And after this, in shā’a Llāh, Mahshar, and in shā’a Llāh

Jannat Al-Firdaus.

Wa min Allāh at-Tawfīq. Al-Fātiḥah.

This is for the Mu’min. They must be happy. We are going to a good place.

Ṭarīqatunā ṣṣuḥbah wa l-khayru fi l-jam‘iyyah

We just made a nikah and this is very important in Islam, marriage it is half of your religion.

Prophet‎ﷺ  encouraged his ummah to marry; he who has enough money he should marry and he who doesn’t it is better for him to fast.

For the whole ummah this is important as we are living in a bad time.  People they are like hungry people with lots of food in front of them and when they open the cage they run towards it not looking at whether it is halal or haram. This is a terrible time for the ego with people running after their desires. Nothing is enough for them they want more and more – one woman now and more and more women after, and after this –  jahannam!

In Europe it is very easy to find a woman, before it was very difficult. For this we are saying for Muslims it is not the way of Prophet‎ﷺ .  It is the way of Prophet‎ﷺ  to look for your wife and be happy with your wife and Allah ﷻ punishes people who look for people outside and do not see their wife as beautiful.

If he looks only for his wife he will find her beautiful. When they are looking and running after many woman they will be not happy at all and Allah ﷻ will curse them oppression will be created and this will destroy Islam. Allah ﷻ is ordering you to marry – this is very important this and most of problems we hear about are protected by strong Imaan.

We must control our ego and control where you are looking and what you are doing. We must be careful it is a very dangerous thing and it can destroy you and your family and Islam.

Many type of people don’t like tariqah as tariqah is about adab and respect but they are coming with fatwas that allow you to take more and more but these fatwas are not real they are from shaitaan and your ego; Allah ﷻ does not like this and he has made everything clear.

We are hoping for Muslims to be in the way of Prophet‎ﷺ ; he was the most gentle in his family looking after his family and his children even his friends and his neighbours.

Islam is about being sensitive and Allah ﷻ will help us to do this as shaitaan is very strong right now; Allah ﷻ give us the power to beat him.

Wa min Allāhi tawfīq, al-Fātiḥah.

Shaykh Mehmet Adil Al-Haqqani, Sohbet of the 22nd February 2024, Peckham, London, UK.

Ṭarīqatunā ṣṣuḥbah wa l-khayru fi l-jam‘iyyah

Muslims are wondering why Allah ﷻ is not punishing people who do bad things. Allah ﷻ gives them time and opportunity to make more and more bad things – he is letting them to do what they can do but everything will have it’s time. Everything must be in its own time.  Now it is the time for oppression.

Allah ﷻ is letting human beings do what they are thinking and what they are intending to do – to make this world better or worse – let them. For this we see all this oppression on the world and injustice and trouble. All this is from Allah ﷻ and who is a believer he must accept and not say anything but only ask from Allah ﷻ to keep his faith strong this is the most important thing – our Imaan.

When you have strong Imaan not everything is important as we know things are coming from Allah ﷻ and if anybody is with Allah ﷻ they will be rewarded even in dunya.  You can see their terrible situation but in the divine presence they have a good reward.

People can do as they please but when you are not accepting the rule of Allah ﷻ who is our creator people will see. He Allah ﷻ knows what is good for us and what is bad for us but these people they say “No! we know better than Him”.

They say this rule of Allah ﷻ is not good so we must create our new rules they say; so you have communist, socialist, capitalist, fascist and Nazisit  and they don’t come back to the rule of Allah ﷻ. If the rule of Allah ﷻ was here then this would be the best thing as he knows what is good for us and what is not good for us.

Doctors they try with medicine they say try this this is good for you and after a little bit they say now leave this medicine and use another medicine and this ends up making pain in your ear and then this not good and then it continues like this. If they are good doctors they would give you medicines without side effects. Everything human beings are now trying without looking for Allah ﷻ. This is not good but bad for humans.

The best thing to is to come to Allah ﷻ but disbelievers their most important attribute is to be stubborn as like Abu Lahab or Abu Jahl; from their stubbornness they would not come to Prophet‎ﷺ  even though they were living in his time.

Now if people have no belief they have no hope and if they don’t have hope then it is a miserable life because you know in life from day after day and day after day it will finish with empty things. What waits for them at the other side it is worse than this world.

Mu’min and believers they are lucky that they don’t have equipment or such luxuries as it is not important as it doesn’t give happiness. When you have everything and there is nothing to get you become more hopeless and unhappy. For those with Allah ﷻ; if he can bring even a small thing such as food for his family he will be happy.

Once we were with Mawlana Shaykh in Indonesia and he was going by train through fields and saw farmers were working and Mawlana Shaykh said look at these people how they are – they are happy if they find one handful of rice. For other people who have even more than this they cannot be fed.

It is happiness to be in the way of Allah ﷻ and Prophet‎ﷺ . Many people they forget this not only here in England or Europe but everywhere in the world they are only thinking about their life how to get better and more and more and more and when they cannot get they they are becoming not happy and are forgetting what Allah ﷻ gave them.

The biggest nia’mah is safety. Before one month or more we were in Egypt and at night when we were coming back we would see thousands of people running from their country Sudan coming to Egypt to find a place of peace.

You are living in peace everywhere but no one is happy with this; not everything is a problem when you have safety belief and Imaan. Maybe you can’t eat meat every day but you can eat cheaper things such as bread and vegetables; don’t complain complaining is not good.

Another thing is that people are complaining that their children are not studying, this is not important. What is important is to find halal work and to bring halal food for their families this is more important than getting money. It is enough for you to continue your life – be thankful and Allah ﷻ will give you more and you will grow.

Allah ﷻ give Mu’min good thinking and not thinking like non-believers who are  controlling the whole world hoping their ideas are followed by believers and non-believers. They want all over the world the  same character and thoughts; what people  like to say what they don’t like to say and this is from Muslims not controlling their ego allowing the ego run after other things.

To control people is to finish all human beings and religion. Religion,  which is the worst thing for them, religion is the worst enemy for them.  When religion is finished they can control the whole world and they can make all humans slaves like animals but this is shaitaan’s plans from the beginning but he cannot do this as believers have hope and we believe what Prophet‎ﷺ  has said regarding the end of times. At the end will come the light Allah ﷻ and Islam and the light of Sayyiduna Mahdi عليه السلام.

Mawlana Shaykh said Sayyiduna Mahdi عليه السلام will whip them out of dunya and not leave any dirt in dunya and this time is not very far and we hope it to be very near.

You cannot do anything but we are not happy with non-believers what they are doing against the rules of Allah ﷻ.

Allah ﷻ keep us in his way and support us and keep all of us safe from this world. Mawlana Shaykh is saying when something is happening outside do not go out and look keep yourself in your house and Allah ﷻ will save you.

Wa min Allāhi tawfīq, al-Fātiḥah..

ASK FORGIVENESS TONIGHT
Mawlana Sheikh Muhammad Adil ar-Rabbani
24 February 2024/ 15 Sha’ban 1445
Fajr Prayer – Sheikh Nazim Dergah; London, UK

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.

AlhamduliLlah tonight in shā’a Llāh will be the night of 15th of Shā’bān. It is a blessed night in the Hijri calendar. It is nice. There are special nights, one of them is this night. About which Allāh Azza wa Jalla also says in Qur’ān, Bismi Llāhi r- Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

فِيهَا يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ
“Fīhā Yufraqu Kullu ‘Amrin Ĥakīm (4)”
“On that night is made distinct every precise matter.” (Qur’an 44:04).
On this night, they approve what will happen for next year, in shā’a Llāh, for good things, in shā’a Llāh. For the Mu’min good, for the believer good, everything is good.

Allāh Azza wa Jalla also says by the ḥadīth of Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ʿalayhi wa sallam, Allāh ﷻ is looking – Allāh Azza wa Jalla is all the time looking but this is for this special night. He ﷻ forgives everyone who want forgiveness. He ﷻ forgives them. It is a good occasion to clean ourselves. Ask forgiveness in this night, “O our Lord, forgive us, take these dirty sins off our back, make us to be light, to be bright in shā’a Llāh.” We ask from Him ﷻ in this night in shā’a Llāh, from Maghrib until Fajr. Anytime you ask for forgiveness, He ﷻ will forgive. [He ﷻ doesn’t forgive] only who is not a believer, He ﷻ said. And the people who are fighting each other,  not making peace between each other. Only these two kinds of people that He ﷻ doesn’t forgive. But for others, they must, you must ask for forgiveness.

And for this occasion, it is a very important thing to not fight with each other. Fighting is not good between the Mu’mins, believers. They are brothers, ikhwā.
إِنَّمَا ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ إِخْوَةٌ
‘’ Inna ma l-mu’minūna ikhwa’’
‘‘The believers are but brothers.’’ (Qur’ān 49:10). Allāh Azza wa Jalla says.

But we ask Allāh Azza wa Jalla to help us, to be deserving of this forgiveness in shā’a Llāh. Allāh ﷻ is generous. When He ﷻ forgives our sins, He ﷻ changes them to reward. This is also from His ﷻ generosity; not afraid to finish. The (most) richest people cannot do so, they cannot. They are afraid if they give, they are afraid that it will maybe finish, “What we have will finish.” Even if they have billions, also  they are afraid. But Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is not afraid. For this, take as much as you can take from this treasure. This is the real treasure that will be forever. Not like the rich people, they have billions but do not give a penny. They will also leave them and die; they will leave them behind them. There is no benefit for them, and no benefit for other. For this we are asking Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla forgiveness and to change our sins to reward in shā’a Llāh.

Tonight in shā’a Llāh, after Maghrib, we read three times Surat Yāsīn, each one with an intention; what we want. After this, in shā’a Llāh pray Ishā’. After Ishā’, also we will be praying a hundred Rak’at; in the first Rak’ah two ikhlāṣ, and in the second [Rak’ah] one ikhlāṣ. You can read also ten Ikhlāṣ in each Rak’ah. It is also better, but for us it is easier and Allāh ﷻ accepts. Mawlānā from his mercy, he taught us to make this. Many people say you must read ten Ikhlāṣ or more. Yes, you are free. We do not prevent people from doing more Nafl. Nafilah makes us more nearer for Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. As much you can do, do. Maybe somebody cannot do and become happy. If he becomes happy, it is better to do; easier and more acceptable.

As they say, to do a small thing and be continuous in it is better than to do one big thing and then nothing [to stop]. Better to be dropping water, like a drop, and not cutting. Subḥāna Llāh, this year also Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla made it in many places not raining, not raining, not raining, dry. After that, Allāh ﷻ sent rain, becoming flood everywhere. This is for ākhiru z-zamān also from Allāh Azza wa Jalla. He ﷻ is not happy with [people of] ākhiru z-zamān. He ﷻ sends them as not mercy, but punishment. For this to be dropping little by little better than a big thing and nothing later. This is also important for ṭarīqah people.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq.

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:
إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ كَانَتْ لَهُمْ جَنَّـٰتُ ٱلْفِرْدَوْسِ نُزُلًا ً
(Qur’ān 18:107).
‘’Inna l-ladhīna āminu wa a’milu s-ṣāliḥāti kānat lahum jannātu l-firdawsi nuzulā’’
‘Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds – they will have the Gardens of Paradise as a lodging.’’

Al-ḥamdu liLlāh this is good tidings for the believer, for you in shā’a Llāh. Allāh ﷻ promises those who become Mu’min, believer and make good deeds that He ﷻ will reward them with Paradise. Firdaus is the highest Paradise.

We are happy with everyone who believes in this. We believe in this, not  believe in another thing. Other people – Everybody is free to think about Allāh ﷻ And Allāh ﷻ will treat him as he thinks about Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. We believe Allāh ﷻ will put us in His ﷻ Paradise. We are, in shā’a Llāh, as much we can do, believers . For doing good deeds, our good deed is only a [useless] shape. But Allāh ﷻ is Merciful. He ﷻ accepts this. He ﷻ is not in need for our deeds, for our thing. But He ﷻ rewards us because we are weak and that is by His ﷻ mercy. We believe in this. And in many āyah in Qur’ān, many verses in Qur’ān, He ﷻ promises to be merciful with us.

We must believe in this. Be happy.
لَهُمُ ٱلْبُشْرَىٰ فِى ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَفِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ
‘‘Lahumu Al-Bushrá Fī Al-Ĥayāati Ad-Dunyā Wa Fī Al-‘Ākhirati’’
‘’For them are good tidings in the worldly life and in the Hereafter.’’(Qur’ān 10:64). Ṣadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm. There is this āyah also. There is good tidings for the believer in dunyā, in this world and the next world. Good tidings for us.

So be happy al-ḥamdu liLlāh, for this, the biggest Ni’mah, Ni’matu l-īmān, belief. To believe is the best thing. And al-ḥamdu liLlāh, Allāh ﷻ accepts your du’ā’, your praying, your fasting. What you do is even nothing for Allāh ﷻ. We know it is nothing but,
عِندَ ٱللَّهِ عَظِيمٌ
“Inda Llāhi ‘Aẓīm’,
‘‘In the sight of Allah it is very great‘’
(Qur’ān 24:15).

To be just doing this even by shape, it is a great thing in the Divinely Presence of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. We must do it with humbleness, not with proudness. “O the whole night I did not sleep, I prayed and..” No. It’s nothing. Allāh ﷻ is not in need for this but He ﷻ is happy with His ﷻ servant to be under what He ﷻ said (commanded), not to become proud and think he is very great.

Takabbala Llāh, in shā’a Llāh Allāh ﷻ accept, and in shā’a Llāh reward us with Janna. We believe in this; there’s no doubt for this. Because
إِنَّ وَعْدَ ٱللَّهِ حَقٌّ
’’Inna wa’da Llāhi ḥaqq’’
‘’Indeed, the promise of Allah is truth.’ (Qur’ān 30:60).
Allāh ﷻ promised. He ﷻ promised and we believe in this.

We must also believe this. Not believe other people who make doubt for everything.There are some people who like to put all people in Jahannam. Awliyā’u Llāh were saying, some of them sacrifice themselves, “O Allāh ﷻ make me giant, put me in Jahannam [to fill it up] to not put [fit] anybody else there.” This is the mercy [of Awliyā’u Llāh], and the difference between those who love Allāh ﷻ, and those who are claiming and are proud for what they’ve done. And nothing is worse than what they’ve done. It’s not even as one thing from Allāh’s ﷻ provision, from what Allāh ﷻ gave us.

May Allāh ﷻ make us together in shā’a Llāh, and make hidāyah for others also. We are not greedy to make people [go away], “Don’t come. Jannah is not enough for all of us.” Jannah is enough for a thousand times, a million times, a billion times more. You must believe this. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla’s Jannah is wide, His ﷻkingdom is endless. Allāh Allāh, Subḥāna Llāh, Allāhu Akbar 

Shaykh Mehmet Adil Al-Haqqani, Sohbet of the 26th February 2024, St Ann’s, London, UK.

Ṭarīqatunā ṣṣuḥbah wa l-khayru fi l-jam‘iyyah

One of our murids, his father was saying, “This happened like this, for that one it happened.” What is the meaning? Everything when it happens is Allah’s ﷻ Will, it must be like this.

Many people, maybe for themselves or others, they say, “If I was before 20 years here I would be more happy, more successful, more better. My situation would be like this, if I did not do this. I would be more happy and now I’m very bad, I’m not happy. My work is not good.”

This must be and must happen. Don’t look for what happened before, for you cannot change it. Allah ﷻ gives and grants what happens. Don’t pass from your life, all these years, days and months – all this is the past.

You cannot change it, only what you can do is look for what you are now, at this time. Tomorrow, we don’t know. After one hour, we don’t know what will happen. Do the best in this life and don’t look and say, “Oh, I’m very sad for what happened.”

Okay, if you do wrong to people and others then you can repent. If you ask forgiveness from Allah ﷻ, then Allah ﷻ will forgive you. But from people, if you ask from them and they’re alive, then ask from them also for forgiveness for what you’ve done. If they accept your excuse and forgive you, then good. If not, you cannot find them, it’s bad.

Now everywhere in the world people say, “If these people can do this, then it would not happen like it this.” All this is happening by the Will of Allah ﷻ.

Of course, we do not agree with oppression, but it must be like this for the approachment of Judgement Day. This world must be like this, for the light to appear and Insha’Allah Imam Mahdi (AS). This is what we are looking for.

Many Awliya Allah they say about life, especially Mawlana Jalaluddin Rumi (R), “Yesterday is yesterday; tomorrow we don’t know what is happening; we are living in this moment.”

This is a very important thing for everybody; to do better until the end of thier life.

One of our murids, his father was saying, “This happened like this, for that one it happened.” What is the meaning? Everything when it happens is Allah’s ﷻ Will, it must be like this.

Many people, maybe for themselves or others, they say, “If I was before 20 years here I would be more happy, more successful, more better. My situation would be like this, if I did not do this. I would be more happy and now I’m very bad, I’m not happy. My work is not good.”

This must be and must happen. Don’t look for what happened before, for you cannot change it. Allah ﷻ gives and grants what happens. Don’t pass from your life, all these years, days and months – all this is the past.

Ṭarīqatunā ṣṣuḥbah wa l-khayru fi l-jam‘iyyah

Allah ﷻ by His Will, He ﷻ does what He ﷻ wants and is not asking from you. He ﷻ makes some higher than others. The highest one is the Prophet (S) and the Companions, and Ahlul Bayt. First it’s the Prophets.

It is like this; there is some praise which is more valuable, and there are some times that are more valuable. We are in this valuable time now; these three months are very blessed. Now Shabaan is finishing and coming to the end in maybe 10 days Insha’Allah, or a little bit more, then it’s the month of Ramadan. Ramadan is the Sultan of the Year, from the 11 months.

Allah ﷻ gives from this month endless mercy, endless happiness, endless barakah.  Maybe people find it difficult for them to fast, but when they do fast and it’s the time of iftar, Allah ﷻ gives them endless happiness.

When you make iftari you cannot find this happiness any other time; it’s only in this time. And from this also, the Akhirah rewards – only He ﷻ knows what He ﷻ will give. We are lucky insha’Allah to be on this way; the way of happiness.

Human beings, most of them, are looking for happiness with dirty things. When you have happiness it must be with clean, pure things, and not taking dirty things and saying afterwards, “I am happy.” No, you are happy only for five minutes, but this happiness is forever.

Anywhere you are in this world during Ramadan, even if no one is practising or knows about Ramadan, still Allah ﷻ gives this happiness for Believers, for Mumin. Nobody else can give you this happiness, especially for Ramadan.

Of course, in this month there are many things that are special. Layla-tul Qadr can be any time of the year, but Prophet (S) said most likely it is in the month of Ramadan, especially in the last ten days.

There is also one ibadah, itikaf; to be 10 days in the mosque. The Prophet (S) was doing this the whole time, but once when he couldn’t do it, he made it up next Ramadan by doing it twice; not 10 days but 20 days.

There are many things, like tarawih also. The Awliya Allah and Ulema are doing 20 rakats. Now there is coming a new fashion; eight rakats. When they finish eight, they’re running out from the mosque. I don’t know to where they’re running – maybe to eat or drink – but they cannot do two rakat more; they don’t want to do it.

Before the Imam was making 20 rakats, and the Jama’a after eight rakats, half of them went as it was enough for them.
But now, unfortunately, the Imam also after eight rakats leaves and finishes. This is not good because as much as you worship Allah ﷻ it will be of more benefit for you. There is no harm for you if you make it 20 rakats, especially for Imams.

For centuries, the whole Muslim world knew that Tarawih is 20 rakats. Only in the last 10 or 20 years it became like this. Maybe some of the Jama’a leave after eight rakats, but the Imam should still continue.

Allah ﷻ give us hidayah and give us love for worshipping. The most sweet thing is ibadah.

The Prophet (S) said, “My happiness is in praying.” So we must be happy with Prophet (S). He gives us only good things and happiness.

Wa min Allāhi tawfīq, al-Fātiḥah.

Shaykh Mehmet Adil Al-Haqqani, Sohbet of the 28th February 2024, St Ann’s Dergah, London, UK

Allah ﷻ is saying, Shifa is from Allah ﷻ. When somebody gets sick, Shifā’ is from Allah ﷻ only.
Of course, there are many treatments. You must also look for it. Allah ﷻ makes for everything a reason. So you must, if you are in need, you must go and ask for Shifā’ from the doctor. But you must know first that Allah ﷻ gives Shifā’. Because many times, many people have illness, they give them some medicine. This medicine doesn’t work. Another also doesn’t work, and another also. Many times they are trying to find, and in the end maybe Allah ﷻ gives to this patient’s heart to ask shifa from Allah ﷻ, and it works.

Especially for the Mu’min, for the Muslim; they must know this. Many of them are thinking that this doctor will bring them again to life. But Shifa is from Allah ﷻ.

And the best thing, from what Prophet ﷺ says, “The stomach is the house of diseases, and diet is the best medicine.” He ﷺ said, “The stomach is house of illness.” So what does that mean? You must look after what you are eating. This is very important – to eat the clean thing, the good thing and to control yourself. To leave place for water and place for air. Not only filling all your stomach with food. There must be a place for other things to be of benefit for your body. When you fill all your stomach only [with food], this will be giving harm for you.

For this, Prophet ﷺ is saying, “Diet is cure, Shifā’.” When something is giving you harm, you must know what this is and you must eat little.Now also there are many illnesses coming, the new time illnesses. Before, it did not happen so commonly. Now in these days, in this time, there are many things. Before, it was rare. Now you see it everywhere.

For this when you are following Prophet ﷺ, following the Sunnah, following the order of Allah ﷻ , Allah ﷻ  keeps you safe. Because our body, Allah ﷻ  gave it to us clean and with no harm. We must also – this āmānah (trust) is from Allah ﷻ , we must keep it also the same, with no harm.

Don’t think you are Muslim, you must not look after your body, you must not look after your health. It is important to be healthy, to be looking after your body. Body meaning not ego. Body for worshipping, to live and to help your family, your community, your Muslims, your human beings also. This is good, not to destroy your body and after that going from doctor to doctor.

The best thing is following Prophet ﷺ. When the Qayṣar (Caesar), the Qayṣar or one of the kings, sent a doctor for Prophet ﷺ because there was not any doctor in Madīnah. As a gift, they sent one doctor to help people, ill people, sick people. The doctor waited one day, five days, one month. In the end, he said, “Nobody is coming. Why?” Prophet ﷺ said, “We are looking how to eat, how to drink, how to act. So there’s no need for a doctor.” So the doctor took permission and went back. No need for anyone to look after him ﷺ.

May Allah ﷻ  keep us in shā’a Llāh safe. May Allah ﷻ  give you a healthy life, and Shifā’ for ill, sick people in shā’a Llāh.

Ṭarīqatunā ṣṣuḥbah wa l-khayru fi l-jam‘iyyah

It is a blessed day. Now we are near the end of Shabaan and Insha’Allah coming to Ramadan.

Mumin, Believers, they have good luck. When you are Mumin, then everything is good for them – nothing goes wrong or is without reward. A Mumin is rewarded for every second and minute. Even if he is suffering from poverty or illness, Allah ﷻ rewards him. If he has everything or nothing, still Allah ﷻ rewards him.

This is the best thing for us in this dunya. When we are living in this life, it is a good thing to seek reward from Allah ﷻ 
and [to seek] His ﷻ Happiness, saying “Your pleasure is my aim.” For the Mumin, Believer, this is the best thing.

Of course, we are living in a time that is difficult for humans. But for Mumin, as Prophet ﷺ says, it is good, nothing is bad.
What Allah ﷻ gives us is good, as nothing bad can come from Allah ﷻ – this is the belief of the Mumin. A Believer must be happy for everything Allah ﷻ gives. Everything is a reward for a believer; you cannot say that what Allah ﷻ Wills is bad for us.

As Mawlana Shaykh Nazim (R) said towards the end of his life, “Good for us, bad for them.” Who doesn’t accept what Allah ﷻ gave him, it is bad for him. But for us who are accepting, then it is good. We are not asking Allah ﷻ to make a test for us but to make it easy; we are not so strong.

So we must remember everything is from Allah ﷻ – and this is for all human beings. It is near the end of times, but these people say that there are millions of years for this earth; but no, what Allah ﷻ has ordered is coming. In one second everything will be finished.

Sometimes they say in the news that after 5 or 10 years there will be something that will hit the earth and it will finish. This is imagination, not real. We know what will happen from His ﷻ Holy Book. Allah ﷻ tells us in His ﷻ Holy Book through Prophet ﷺ. If Prophet ﷺ did not explain to us, then we wouldn’t have understood anything. He ﷺ explains Islam to us.

Look at what Prophet ﷺ is saying. All knowledge is coming from him ﷺ and afterwards through Awliya, Ulema and Saliheen. These people explain after what the Prophet ﷺ was saying.

Now the time is coming to destroy every good thing. They say, “Tariqah is biddah, so throw it away.” Then they say, “Madhab is biddah, throw it away.” Now they say that Hadith came after Prophet ﷺ, so leave it. Prophet ﷺ is Sadiq ul Amin; he ﷺ is trustworthy and what he ﷺ promises will happen.

It is not [how they say] that something will hit the earth and then it is finished, no. On that day of Qiyamah, there will be a big earthquake that makes even big mountains [turn] like dust. It is a very big earthquake that Mawlana Shaykh (R) would mention sometimes. It will make everything flat; [across] the whole earth you cannot see any high thing. It is not like they say, “Something hits [the Earth] and the whole world will finish.” No, Sayyiduna Israfil (AS) comes and the whole of human beings will be awoken from their graves, and they will be asked about what they have done; and they are rewarded or punished. This is what Prophet ﷺ says and it is not so far; it is near.

We must try to accept and not object to what Allah ﷻ gives us. We must be patient with what we are not happy with, and be thankful with what Allah ﷻ has given us. Be thankful that you are Mumin – this is the biggest nimah. It makes you a winner, and if you lose this, then you will be a loser.

We must be thankful to Allah ﷻ all the time: Alhamdulillah, Shukr Allah, Alhamdulillah. It is a real gift. Many people are not noticing this or taking care of this. Now they take care of many things that take you away from this.

We are in a time when only 1% is enough to be acceptable. In time of Prophet ﷺ, there were some Sahaba who were a little bit outside of the mosque playing a game. The Prophet ﷺ was angry saying, “Don’t do this.” Now though, day and night people are doing this, playing and not eating, drinking – not even sleeping. If they are not sleeping, then how can they be praying?

It is not good, especially for children, but we can only say, “La Hawla wa la Quwwata,” as we can’t do anything for this. It takes people away from ibadah and from doing good things. It is also [a way of] controlling by shaytan and his followers; they’re giving this to control people.

To finish this, you must not forget praying, fasting, and not making your prayers later and later so that you lose it. The time for praying is very precious. Prophet ﷺ says that the precious time for praying is the beginning of prayer time. If you leave it later, sometimes you catch it or miss it. Even if you catch it late, it’s like having a meal from the last day.

You must be anxious. Anxious from what? People are anxious for nonsense things – you must be anxious to pray.

Allah ﷻ keep us safe from this fitna. We are in a time of endless fitna. Even for this we must try to balance what we lose – don’t lose praying. The time of praying is very important. Prophet ﷺ says that if you lose prayer time, then even if you pray until Qiyamah you will not gain what you lost – like if you leave Dhur for Asr, or Asr for Maghrib. If you lose this time, then you cannot find this same treasure or value of this again.

Allah ﷻ help us and bless us. Ramadan is coming and mubrak to all of us Insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ give us more himma for praying and fasting.

Alhamdulilah, most of our tariqah people are praying tarawih with 20 rakaats. It is like this since more than a 1000 years after Prophet ﷺ. It is not fard for ummah. Once he ﷺ prayed in mosque and then afterwards in his ﷺ house.

Some even prayed 30 rakaats, but since that time of 1400 years or more, people are praying 20 rakaats. Now for shaytaan it is too much, “How can we pray this?” So people are bargaining with shaytaan saying, “Okay we pray 8 rakats.”

Other masjids in London are praying 8 rakat but it is nafilah. They lose many things, and what they lose they will regret in Akhirah. We are greedy to get more reward.

You must be greedy for reward and not for dunya. When you are in Jama’a, Allah ﷻ makes it more blessed for you. Allah ﷻ is happy for Mumin to be making more tasbih and salawat. Especially in Ramadan, it is being rewarded even more than 10 times more.

It is a very nice month. For Mumin it is health, wealth and iman, Insha’Allah. Mubarak.
