“O people, by Allâh I have visited kings. I went to Caesar, Chosroes and the Negus, but by Allâh I never saw a king whose companions venerated him as much as the companions of Muhammad venerated Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allâh be upon him). By Allâh, whenever he spat it never fell on the ground, it fell into into the hand of one his companions, then they wiped their faces and skins with it. If he instructed them to do something, they would hasten to do as he commanded. When he did wudû’, they would almost fight over his water. When he spoke they would lower their voices in his presence; and they did not stare at him out of respect for him.”

-al-Bukhârî, 3/178, no. 2731, 2732; al-Fath, 5/388.

Forgotten Sunnah: Read Surah Yasin after Fajr

Bismillahir Rahmanir RaheemRead Surah Yasin after Fajr:

The Hadith mentioned by ‘Ataa bin Abi Rabaah (R.A.) states that the Prophet (S.A.W.) said: “Whosoever recites Surah Yasin in the early part of the day his needs will be fulfilled.” (Mishkaat, Page 189) It is stated in Mirqaat, Sharah Mishkaat under the commentary of the above Hadith that ones worldly needs and the needs pertaining to the Deen and the Hereafter will be fulfilled. (Mirqaat, Sharah Mishkaat, Vol. 4, Page 681)

In light of the Shari’ah the day begins from Subhus Saadiq and ends at sunset. Therefore Surah Yasin can be read after the Fajr Salaah or after sunrise as both fall under the early part of the day as mentioned in the Hadith.

Also:
‘Irbaadh bin Saariyah (R.A.) narrates that the Prophet (S.A.W.) used to recite the Musabbihaat, i.e. Surah Hadeed, Surah Hashar, Surah Saff, Surah Jumu’ah and Surah Taghaabun before sleeping and he stated that: “Indeed amongst them is a verse that is more virtuous than a thousand verses. (Abu Dawood, Vol. 2, Page 333, Tirmidhi, Vol. 2, Page 178)
The verse referred to in the above Hadith is “Huwal Awwalu wal Aakhiru waz Zaahiru wal Baatinu wa Huwa bi kulli Shayin ‘Aleem.” (Tafseerul Qur’anil ‘Azeem, Vol. 4, Page 385)

Bismillahir Rahmanir RaheemONE RELIGION IN THE PRESENCE OF ALLAH


Juma Khutba delivered by Sheykh Abdul Kerim al-Hakkani al-Kibrisi

Friday 11 Zil-Qadah, 1430
October 30, 2009
Osmanli Naksibendi Hakkani Dergahi, Siddiki Center, New York

Auzu billahi min-ash sheytanir rajim
BismillahirRahmanirRahim
Medet Ya Seyyidi Sultanul Awliya, Medet.

Alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah. Astaghfirullah, astaghfirullah, astaghfirullah al-azim wa atubu ilaih. Inna ad-dina indallah-ul Islam. One religion in the presence of your Lord. Islam. Saying to us, `Don’t come to my presence with something else. You will be failing. The only religion that I’m accepting is Islam. The only book that I’m accepting is the Quran. The only prophet and the last prophet that I’m accepting is Muhammad (alayhi salatu wa salam).’

Eh, the 21st Century people are reading a lot, they have so much computers, they built these computers mashaAllah, they built so much technology, but they are buried in it. They sink in it. They are knowing nothing because they are not knowing what is good for them and what is bad for them. They are running top-speed after illusions and delusions and so many wrong thinkings. And Allah is sending to us saying, `Islam’. Islam is open. You cannot hide anything to the corners. Everything is open. He has sent 124,000 prophets and all these prophets were calling their people to Islam, to Allah, saying, `La ilaha illallah.’ That is Islam. Saying, `Submit yourself to your Lord. One and Only. No other one. He has no partner.’

During those times prophets came in their nations. Some believed and some didn’t. So many prophets came and not even one person believed on them. It didn’t change the reality. That one who came and who gave them the message is in safety now and those ones who became disobedient are in trouble. They are in trouble in their graves. After Judgment Day more trouble is coming to mankind. This is what man is building to himself because the ego is standing.

The ego is always saying, `Me, me and only me. Whatever you say, I don’t care.’ That’s what the ego says. Males and females, the same, saying, `What I say, that’s what has to happen. I am a Muslim but what my ego likes, that’s what I’m going to do.’ No you are not a Muslim then. You lost Islam. Islam is to submit yourself to your Lord, to submit yourself to His orders, to submit yourself to His Prophet (sws), to submit yourself to the rightly guided ones. If you are not submitting yourself to them then you are following the desires of your ego. So you are a servant of your ego. You can do any kind of forms then. You can be a Buddhist, sitting like Buddha, you can be Christians going to church, or Jews going to synagogue once a week, or Muslims going to Juma, or from time to time going into masjids, but you are following your ego. Finished. You are not following the orders of Allah subhana wa ta’ala because you don’t know which ones are those. You do things according to your ego then.

Eh, 21st Century people, from the normal people to murids to the Sheykhs now, cigarettes in their mouths. They are smoking cigarettes. What is that? If a man can’t control himself with a cigarette, if he cannot stop his ego from that cigarette, how is he going to control himself with other orders that Allah is giving to do and don’t? Impossible. The simplest thing and the worst thing, to you, to your community and to your nation, financially and in every way. You cannot stop yourself from that wrong action. How are you going to stop yourself, your ego from so many other tricks and traps that Sheytan is coming to play with you?

Yes, today the name of Islam is there, today the appearances of the Quran is there, the appearances of Masjids are there, but Mu’mins, where are they? We are looking. Where are they? They are hiding. They are pulling themselves to the corners. And the hypocrites, the fools and the ignorant, the tools for Sheytan are appearing here and there. This is the way that it has to happen. That’s what the Holy Prophet (sws) said, `The ones that are giving light are going to pull themselves to the corners. So you are not going to see light. Those who are looking for light, they are going to run after, they are going to find them. But those who are not liking the light of Islam, they are not going to care. They are just like the bats. As soon as they see the light, it’s bothering them.’

Sheytan already changed so many signs in Islam since the 1920’s. `One Way’ is the other way. Everyone is saying, `I am finding my way.’ How are you finding your way? From where are you taking that? Sign is showing that way but already somebody has played around with it. One time I was driving in Cyprus. I see one sign showing one road, saying, `Gecitkoy’. So if you follow that in the map, you see that there is a Gecitkoy and you have to follow that road to go to that village. But somebody came down from their car someday somehow and they took G, E and C out and now the sign says, `Itkoy’. You are looking at the map, there is no such thing as Itkoy. There’s Gecitkoy. So I say maybe it’s a wrong direction, I have to turn to this side. But when you look at it closely you see that somebody took those couple of letters out. Huh, it’s a completely different meaning too. Gecitkoy means giving way to you to pass. Itkoy means the dog’s village. That’s what it means.

All the signs everywhere Sheytan played around with. And as the Holy Prophet (sws) is saying, `In Ahir Zaman only the name of Islam is going to stay. The appearances of Islam are going to disappear.’ That’s what happened. And appearing so many fools in that Itkoy way, that sign, claiming that they know Islam, claiming that they are the best ones. Some are claiming that they are Mahdi, some are claiming that they are prophets, some are claiming that they are Khizr and some are preparing to declare that they are Mahdi.

Eh, Allah gave you intelligence to put it together and to think and to watch. Yes, do you have to watch your Sheykh? Of course. You have to watch every activity that he’s doing. Look. Does it fit into the borderlines of Islam? Yes. Not according to your ego. According to Islam. According to the time and according to that place. Where the wolves are, you don’t walk around without the stick in your hand. When the wolves are around you have to have the gun ready too. It doesn’t matter if you are a Murid or if you are a Sheykh. The wolf is not listening. When the wolf is ready to attack you have to be able to pull and shoot. But so many fools today are not knowing anything. They are not knowing the simple steps of Islam and they are thinking that they know everything and saying, `Oh, Sheykh cannot do this. Sheykh cannot say this.’ Sheykh can use everything that is necessary to save his Murid from hell. He is not looking for worldly activities. He’s not looking how they are going to think. Sheykh is that one who has been given permission from the Holy Prophet (sws) depending on the area that he is working in.

As I said, those fools that they cannot stop themselves from cigarettes, they are jumping today and finding other fools like them and thinking that they are going to harm Islam or thinking that they are going to turn Islam as their ego wants it. You cannot. They have been trying for fourteen hundred years. You cannot. Impossible. Impossible. Islam, Inna ad-dina indallah-ul Islam, the only religion that Allah is accepting. And it looks like now that it’s covered but it’s rising up now. When that cover is taken off, it’s the only one that’s taking over the whole world again. It is so easy for Allah subhana a ta’ala. It is so hard for those ignorant ones even to think on it.

It was so easy for Sultan Mehmet Khan when he aimed to Istanbul, because he had plans and he had aims and he put his life in front saying, `Either Istanbul will take me or I will take Istanbul. There is no other way.’ They said to him, `Are you crazy? Have you lost your mind? Do you know how protected this city is?’ He says, `I know. I know how it is. But I see a vision. And where my sword is reaching, where my power is reaching, not even your imagination can reach because you are not knowing Islam. I know and I am reaching there. Watch me.’ He reached. Watch us. We are reaching back to Istanbul. Watch. We are reaching back to Rome. Watch. All those fools who think that they are standing in front of Islam, in front of those ones, they are only giving energy and power to those who are working in the way of Allah. There’s an Ayat-e Kerima saying, `When they say to them, `All your enemies have come together, they are preparing against you’, that’s making their faith to grow stronger and they say, `Hasbinallah wa ni’mal wakeel. Allah is enough for me.” Yes.

So, any safety that anybody is looking for in Dunya and in Akhirat, Islam. Real Islam. Islam the way that the Holy Prophet (sws) brought. Not so many fake things that they put later here and there. Not so many things that they have changed the road with. You can change all the roads, you can change all the signs, but the man who has a vision doesn’t need the signs anymore. He doesn’t need the GPS anymore. He follows the road. He knows the road because there’s a light going in front of him.

So, if you don’t know then you must follow that guide. You must follow his orders. You must not follow your ego and your head to say, `I know so much and I read so much.’ Yes, the more you read the more ignorant you are going to become! The more arrogant you are going to become in these days! The more fool you are going to become in these days! Because that’s what they are preparing for you.

Not even understanding that part that there are so many enemies of Islam running to finish it. Who are the enemies of Islam? The Fascists are the enemies of Islam, the Communists are the enemies of Islam, the Seculars are the enemies of Islam, the Laiks are the enemies of Islam, the Feminists are the enemies of Islam. All these are enemies of Islam. I have more to say but it doesn’t fit to this Khutba place. Other times I say.

No Fear for the Defenders of Truth

NO FEAR FOR THE DEFENDERS OF TRUTH


Sohbet given by Sheykh Abdul Kerim al-Hakkani al-Kibrisi

Thursday 10 Zil-Qadah, 1430
October 29, 2009
Osmanli Naksibendi Hakkani Dergahi, Siddiki Center, New York.

Auzu billahi min ash-sheytanir rajim
BismillahirRahmanirRahim
Medet Ya Seyyidi, Sultanul Awliya, Medet.

Tariqatuna Sohbet wa Khayru fil Jamiat. Our way continues through association. (First we enter into the way). Later step by step everyone is reaching to what is for them that Allah subhana wa ta’ala has given, has prepared. But the 21st Century people, although they are in trouble twenty-four hours, they are still running to make more trouble to themselves, not only in Dunya but in their graves and in Akhirat. Anyone who’s running for Islam, Islam means submission. Peace. And the peace can only come through submission. And submission is to the One who has created you. But not according to your ego. It’s according to what He has prepared, that He has sent 124,000 prophets to show people roads from Dunya to Akhirat and to show people that they have become dirty and they became disobedient to Allah.

Sheytan became disobedient and all the beauty that was given to him, all the knowledge that was given to him, all the power that was given to him, as soon as he became disobedient, it means he changed all that with disobedience. Allah didn’t take it away but that arrogant and stubborn one through that action threw away everything that Allah subhana wa ta’ala had granted to him. He took it and he threw it away. And when the warning reached to him, it’s not only that he was ignorant and arrogant, he then turned to become stubborn with the wrong thing that he did. And he did so until Allah subhana wa ta’ala was ordering the angels, the guards of the paradises, saying, `Kick this one out from Paradise!’ And he has been kicked out from Paradise.

He didn’t sit comfortably. He cannot sit comfortably until the Judgment Day. That worrying and the fear is driving him crazy. And he didn’t sit comfortably and he came to the gates of Paradise, he managed to enter inside through the mouth of the snake… so many snakes are in the world today, he managed to enter inside and he fooled Hazrat Hawa. And Hazrat Hawa became a disobedient one, a direct disobedient one to Allah subhana wa ta’ala. And Hazrat Hawa managed to fool Adam (alayhi salam) and as soon as Adam (as) did the forbidden action, order came to him saying, `Now you became dirty too. Anyone who’s disobedient to My order, they are dirty ones and dirty ones cannot stay in Paradise. Then order was given sending them to this Dunya, saying, `Clean yourselves and come back to Paradise. If you are not cleaning yourselves then you cannot be going back to Paradise. Clean yourselves from those animal characteristics’, because only the animal characteristics became disobedient to Allah subhan wa ta’ala.

And since that time Sheytan managed to enter between the children of Adam (as) and put confusion and Fitna, and always one group is running to keep the orders of Allah and another one always running to make confusion and disobedience to Allah subhana wa ta’ala. And that has continued up to the last prophet Muhammad (salatu wa salam). And did it stop? No. It continued. When Islam became a state and a government that’s ruling strongly, Sheytan couldn’t run around too much to put more of his confusion inside the believers. Since 1908, since Ulul Hakan Sultan Abdul Hamid Khan came down from power, Sheytan is running top-speed inside of Muslims and he managed to fool them left and right, to put confusion to them while they are in the same Masjids and they are following the same Sheykhs or they are running to do something for Allah’s sake.

What’s making that? Their ego. Everyone wants their ego to be praised. Eh, your ego is a disobedient creature to Allah subhana wa ta’ala. Anyone who’s going to praise your ego, that one is also a sheytan. Especially now, in the Ahir of Ahir Zaman, in the confusion of sheytans and dajjals. There is nothing left for the big Dajjal to come out. And I am seeing so many running after the dajjals. Eh, run. You are free to go anywhere. Run anywhere. But you are only running away from Haqq to Batil. Nothing else. And dajjals are waiting to put the chains around the necks and later you may be sorry but sometimes the last sorry is not enough. And Sheytan will drag those ones with him into Jahannam.

We are defenders of the Truth. The Hakkanis. Defenders of the Truth. Not only through the name. Not only through this small area. Anywhere we are walking on top of this earth, we are defending the Truth. Anyone who is saying other than that, they must be the agents of Sheytan. In my position I am a weak servant. But as our Sheykh is saying, with Allah subhana wa ta’ala I can be the most strong one. But no need for me to be the strong one because Sheykh Mevlana is on top of everything, Alhamdulillahi Rabbil Alameen.

All those who are going to run and become helpers to Sheytan and dajjals, welcome. Run right now if you want. If there’s not one person left around, don’t think that this attitude is going to change. It’s not. It’s not going to change because we are defending the Truth and against sheytans and dajjals it’s going to become more strong, more powerful. Never is it going to become weaker. We may not be able to carry this until the end. Whatever Allah subhana wa ta’ala has granted to us in this life, inshaAllah ar-Rahman we are going to spend it until the last breath and no man on the face of earth, no sheytans, no dajjals and no governments are going to be able to put any fear in us because we are holding tightly to Allah, to His Prophet (sws) and to His Awliya.

Anyone who is claiming that they know the Awliya, if they don’t know Sheykh Mevlana Muhammad Nazim al-Hakkani, they must be knowing sheytans. If anyone is claiming that they are Awliya, they have to know that one. If they are not knowing that one then they must be the agents of Sheytan. This much should be enough for you, for me and for all those who are going to listen worldwide. And I want this to enter everywhere. Translate in Turkish, put it in English to enter to every one of them, for them to hear this and who’s challenging, I am here. I am not challenging anyone. I am a weak servant. But not wolves, not hyenas, not cats but the rats are trying to challenge me. They are only rats and the rats, the duty of the rats is only to go inside the sewers and to bring out dirtiness. They are surviving with the dirtiness. Nothing else.

Wa min Allahu tawfiq

InshaAllah ar-Rahman, we are asking help and support from our Sheykh and I don’t know about you but I put my neck under his feet. And every blood that is in my body is sacrificed to him. I will never ask if he’s doing right or wrong because I know that he’s doing right. And even if it is something that looks that it’s not right, definitely I trust and I follow his footsteps. And everything that I’m doing in this country for 35 years, all those who know me know that I am following his footsteps, even though so many of them don’t like me because of that. And I have no fear and I have no worry. Even if he says to me the worst words in this world, inshaAllah I am over 50 years old and I didn’t change my heart to him one time, I am not intending to change it until the last breath.

We are serving Sheykh Mevlana Muhammad Nazim al-Hakkani for five generations. My grandfather, my father, me, my son and my grandson. We are serving him. We are going to serve him. Anyone who is saying other than that, either they are attacking me or they are liars or they are in big Ghaflat.

Wa min Allahu tawfiq

Bihurmatil Habib

Bihurmatil Fatiha.
