(Mawlana Shaykh sits with guests from Argentina.)
Our Lord is asking us to surrender to His holy orders and follow His prophets, from the first one up to the Last One. That is Islam, not ordering people to do bad things, but preventing them from doing bad things and urging them to do good things! Also, Islam is to know where we may reach in this life from our wealth and that we will eventually leave and be taken to the graveyard. Therefore, for what are you running after worldly treasures? You can reach heaps of gold, diamonds, rubies and emeralds, but you must know that you are leaving and you will be taken. However, people are running after Shaytan and they are not trying to listen to the heavenly declarations for Mankind.
O People! Allah Almighty is saying, “Be My servants and don’t be Shaytan’s slaves! I created you and you must try to be My servants, not the servant of your enemies, Shaytan and his followers! It is so simple.
If you are saying this is wrong, holy ones say what you are saying wrong! No one can truly say what we are speaking is wrong. The reality is that we are servants and the Lord of Heavens is our God and our Lord! May Allah forgive us.
Fatihah.
