Countless Easts and Wests

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, `Azeez Allah

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Kareem Allah

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Subhaan Allah

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Sultaan Allah

Alfu salaat, alfu salaam!

As-salaamu `alaykum, yaa `ibadallah (worshippers), who are just honored by a heavenly honor!

As-salaamu `alaykum, who are just knowing that and are asking to keep that honor from pre-Eternal up to Eternal!

O People! As-salaamu `alaykum. We are asking for madad, heavenly support from that one who he is in charge of everything happening in this world from beginning up to end, and we are asking Huuuuuuu, heavenly support for addressing to everyone from the east through to the west. Where is the east? Where is the west?

O Salafi `ulamas! Do you know where is the east and where is the west? It is a difficult question because everywhere it may be the same time east and the same time west. For what? According to the sun's movement which is making countless easts and countless wests, what are you saying, O Salafi `ulamas? It is something that is mentioned in the Holy Qur'an:

رَبِّ الْمَشَارِقِ وَالْمَغَارِبِ

Rabbu 'l-mashaariq wal-maghaarib,

Lord of the easts and wests. (70:40)

Do you need the proof? That means only the Creator is knowing the numbers of the rising and the setting of the sun. Daily, there are different and countless mashaariq (easts) and maghaarib (wests). Allahu akbar! They are saying to our grandshaykh that he may support us by any means, by so many means the east and every rising is bringing something to make some people arise. Also so many settings are making countless people to set down.

May Allah Almighty grant us an understanding, and we are saying a`oodhu billahi min ash-shaytan ir rajeem. We are running away from Shaytan and his wrong ideas and are saying, Bismillahi 'r Rahmani 'r-Raheem, Bismillahi 'r-Rahmani 'r-Raheem, Bismillahi 'r-Rahmani 'r-Raheem. That is the entrance for Mankind to enter and to see new views and there is a changing through every moment, or through every second or third.

O Salafi `ulamas! What is that proof on the last word? You must bring your proof, qul haatoo burhaanakum. If you are saying something, you must have proof that supports what you are saying. Which thing is supporting what you are saying now, that everything is going to be changed, countless risings, countless settings. According to the rising of the sun, this is happening; this world is carrying something and the rising sun is asking Earth for the sun to send us some new things.

Now we are getting older and we are in need of a new one, new ones, new visions. And what is the proof from Holy Qur'an for this point? The sun rising and the sun setting, that means nothing is going to be stable. It is changing countlessly because of renewal? A renewal is a grant reaching people from the heavens. Renewal, kullu jadeedin ladheedhun. Every new thing is tasty, delicious. Therefore, the Lord of Heavens has a countless 'renewment' in every minute or second, down to the shortest measure of time because renewal is giving people refreshment, enjoyment and pleasure. Every change is bringing new pleasure for Mankind.

Therefore, He knows our situation or our levels. Subhanallah. He knows the demands of His creatures and He is asking to grant to them kullu jadeedin ladheedhun, (every new thing is tasty). He is asking to give more different enjoyment and pleasure. He is asking to grant His deputies, who are 'deputy' by name and are never going to be a real deputy. Everyone has a limit. When Men are asking, their asking is always in limits, it can't be countless. Therefore, the Lord of the Heavens is granting everything for Mankind in limits. When we eat, we eat small pieces of food, we are not eating like giants. We eat little-by-little. Why is He making His servants taste from His endless tastement (flavors)? With each drink or bite they will have a kind of pleasure, an enjoyment. Man is not like a gigantic boa snake that may swallow without taste. He is making Man taste everything each time, to reach a new enjoyment and a new pleasure. The Almighty may do as He likes to arrange for our provision, but He is making it for chewing and drinking, so that we are getting much more enjoyment and pleasure. Also, Allah Almighty is making for Man some food that is salty, some that is sweet, some that is bitter, and some that is sour; a different taste for everything.

This life is an imitated life and it is signing (indicating) an example on this planet of Allah Almighty's endless grants to Man for eating, drinking and tasting, to be endlessly for them in Paradise. Every time you are eating and drinking you are finding another taste, another pleasure, another enjoyment. Why are you running away from that direction? This is coming as a simple understanding for Man's future pleasures, like a cook giving someone a sample to taste, to be pleased and in pleasure more and more each time.

O Salafi `ulamas! What are you saying for this? I think some of you when you come for a lunch or dinner or breakfast, like it to be different and not the same. The Lord of the Heavens is asking to grant His deputies a new taste with everything. When we are saying "deputy", it is never going to be a real deputy. He has dressed only one to be a deputy according to the level of Creation, not beyond Creation, and that is Sayyidina Muhammad, sall-Allahu `alayhi wa sallam. (Mawlana Shaykh stands and sits.)

Allah Almighty is saying through the Holy Qur'an, why He is making the sun rise, sun set countlessly and they are never going to be a hundred percent the same, they are a hundred percent different! He is asking to make His servants pleased! There are countless grants from Allah Almighty that are not a hundred percent the same. Today's pleasures are not the same as yesterdays or the pleasures of the coming days. New, new, new. What is the proof for the point that everything is changing? Allah Almighty is saying, kullu yawmin huwa fee sh'aan, kullu yawmin huwa fee sh'aan, kullu yawmin huwa fee sh'aan.

يَسْأَلُهُ مَن فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ هُوَ فِي شَأْنٍ

Yas'aluhoo fi 's-samawaati wal-ard, kullu yawmin huwa fee sh'aan.

Of Him seeks (its need) every creature in the heavens and on Earth, every day in (new) splendor does He (shine)! (55:29)

This is an endless ocean for understanding or for explanation. Who is Huwa? Allah Almighty is never accepting to be changed. No, it can't be. Allah Almighty is the same as He was in Eternal and pre-Eternal. He is Eternal and Eternity is only for Him. He never accepts a changing when He says, kullu yawmin huwa fee shaan. Which day is He saying? Yawm. Who is Huwa? To where is He coming? To that point where our understanding is never reaching, but subhanallahi 'l-Muqtadir, the point of proof. Who is that One, Sh'aan? And Allah Almighty, laa yazaal wa lam yazaal, is never accepting a changing. Kullu yawmin huwa fee sh'aan. It means that One. The One, that Hu, you are never going to understand. Who is that, fee sh'aan? Not coming on Him because Allah Almighty never accepts a changing. That means for Mankind, Bani Adam, it is just granted to them. Either their ways are in a bad direction or their ways are in a good direction, both of them. So every day, there are going to be two different dressings appearing on Man: one makes him happy, another one makes him unhappy. Therefore, the whole responsibility is on Mankind. They may reach one (or the other). Every moment, every second you may look and you may reach a happiness and enjoyment and pleasure and understanding and new enlightenment. May Allah forgive us for the honor of the Seal of Prophets (s).

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, `Azeez Allah

Be happy! Our Lord gives us some understanding, grants us some new understanding to be in pleasure, here and Hereafter.

Fatihah.

Yes sir.

(Many people sending salaams, Sayyidee.)

Happy?

(Yes, they are very happy, Sayyidee.)

May Allah make them happy forever!

(523 thousand.)

They are fearing to come down, if coming down from more than 500,000 they are making me not to speak to them. Yes, sir.
