Bismillahi ‘r-Rahmaani ‘r-Raheem. Dastoor yaa Sayyidee. (Mawlana Shaykh stands.)
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.
You are the only Sultan, King of kings! No other king! Only You are King! O our Lord, forgive us for the honor of the most honored one in Your Divinely Presence Sayyidina Muhammad (s). Yaa Rabb, give to him victory in this fight with Shaytan and its followers. (Mawlana Shaykh sits.)
As-salaamu `alayka, yaa Sultanul Awliyaa, that you are responsible for every happening on this planet, on dunya. Allah Almighty grants to you much more power for the honor of the Seal of Prophets, Sayyidina Muhammad (s). (Mawlana Shaykh stands and sits.)
O Our Attenders! As-salaamu `alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuh! Accept that holy salaam from heavens and try to reach heavenly Mercy Oceans. Yes. And we are saying, a`oodhu billahi min ash-Shaytaani ‘r-rajeem.
O Salafi `ulamas! Who is qati` at-tareeq, thief? Who is the one cutting ways of mu'mins or cutting the ways of Mankind, so they do not reach a safe area of Mercy Oceans of the Lord of all Creation? That is the most important point that we must try to make clear for Mankind! And we are saying, bismillahi ‘r-Rahmaani ‘r-Raheem; that is a heavenly sword we are taking. Whoever is sitting on the way reaching to the Divine Presence, that is our sword, to cut their heads and to take them away! We are now addressing all religious people according to their customs. This one is a weak servant and I am not carrying any title. The biggest title for Mankind is to reach the level of servanthood and to be accepted by the Lord of Heavens as His servant. Yes!
Therefore, we are addressing first `ulamas of the Muslim world and particularly those who are given some specialty, who are saying, "We are Salafi `ulamas." But they cannot give an explanation for what they want to say to people through that title because it is an imitated title. They are saying, "We are Salafi `ulamas." What does that mean, “Salafi `ulamas”? What is their specialty? What is their thing and what are they asking to do?
And then we are addressing all `ulamas from the Islamic world, from east to west, from north to south. You must say what is the highest position or most precious honor for Mankind? Sat to me, `ulama' ul Islam, learned people of Islamic world!!! What is the highest position and rank and title of honor for Muslims? Say to me! What is that? You are knowing or not knowing? Then I am going to learned people among Christians, yes, learned people who are giving themselves some titles that Jesus Christ never gave to himself. Therefore, first of all, I am asking Muslim `ulamas. Say!! Which title is most acceptable through the Divine Presence? Say to me!!! We may ask, (but you give) no answer. Everything that Mankind must know, must keep, and must try to do, what is that? The Seal of Prophets, Sayyidina Muhammad (s)! (Mawlana Shaykh stands and sits.) He mentioned in one hadith, and if I am missing something you may correct it.
اجلس كما يجلس العبد وآكل كما ياكل العبيد
Ajlis kamaa yajlisu al -`abd wa aakul kamaa yaakulu al-`abd
I sit as a servant sits and I eat as the servan eats.
It is true according to your knowledge; is not accepted? No, it is true. You must find, Ajlis kamaa yajlisu al -`abd wa aakul kamaa yaakulu al-`abd. That lesson the Seal of Prophets (s) is teaching people is enough for all nations. Why is he saying this? Why? You may ask what it means, Ajlis kamaa yajlisu al -`abd wa aakul kamaa yaakulu al-`abd. Why did he say this? What was his maqsad, aim? First of all, you may say leave this and pass away. Now, those four or five words are giving a complete and wide meaning, first making clear his mission, and then showing and asking everyone to recognize that he is only a servant!
O Our Christian Brothers! You are making Jesus Christ to be on heavens, to be son of God. Astaghfirullah. But I am asking the chiefs of Christianity, Catholics and Orthodox or other sects, what or who is giving you this authority to make Jesus Christ Allah Almighty's son? Is any verse coming from heavens in the Old Testament or New Testament? In the Old Testament, if it was someone who was coming as a son of God, it was daroori, necessary to be mentioned by the first prophet and the first man, Adam. He would have said, "The son of God is coming, so pray to him." Is it mentioned through holy nooks? From where they are bringing such a thing?
Lan yastankir al-`abdu an yakuna `abdan lillaahi. “A servant of Allah does not deny servanthood to Him.”
The Lord of Heavens is saying, "Jesus Christ is never going to escape being a servant of his Lord!" Yes, it is so clear! Why are they saying that? It means that Jesus Christ never claimed, "I am your God and I am second; my Father is first god and I am the second god." That Cant be!!!! the heavenly declaration that began with Adam (a) up to the Seal of Prophets (s) all said, "We are servants of your Lord! O our nation, we are only servants of our Lord and we are calling you to be servants of your Lord." And these four words that the Seal of Prophets (s) was saying were include all aims of prophecy, saying, "I am sitting like a servant and I am eating like a servant." It is so clear. From where you are bringing so many things, so many titles? And the Seal of Prophets (s) was saying, "I am servant of my Lord. Therefore, I am sitting as a servant, I am eating as a servant." That is giving a straight direction for nations, for all Mankind, that he means, "You must try to be like me, because all of you are only servants. Don't bring imitated titles as you are cheating yourself!"
Therefore, what we are saying now, it belongs also to the Muslim world because they are bringing so many titles for themselves. Those titles are imitated things. Who may prefer a plastic diamond instead of real diamond? Anyone? There must be something wrong with them! Therefore, you are making such thrones, such clothes, such crowns. What you are doing is giving yourself imitated titles, because when that one dies, taken from them their thrones, their clothes, crowns and titles, finished. Allahu akbar! Allahu akbar! All nations, all religions are going on wrong way, following shaytanic, imitated ideas that have no value, and they are leaving holy books and running after shaytanic writings.
Therefore we are saying, as they are granting to me, to speak: O `ulamas! O pope! O patriarch, bishops and rabbis! What is your mission? That's an important question. What have you been ordered to do? Don't say, "We are Muslims, we are Christians, we are Jewish people." No! What is your mission? You must stop on straight way and you must put up a fence from east to west, so when people are coming they are prevented from going after shaytanic teachings. They are protectors to stop people reaching to Shaytan and shaytanic aspects. That is our only responsibility, to prevent people to go after or to follow Shaytan! All nations must know this through their religious people. Religious people must make all people not to follow shaytanic ways, but they are keeping them away not to fall into troubles, into hells, not to fall into them in this life. But people lost the main purpose from `ulamas, from rabbis, from popes not saying, “O People! Don't go this way because you will fall into endless troubles in this life and for Eternal Life you are losing your chance!”
Now we are addressing to Salafi `ulamas. What are you doing? Are you preventing people not to follow shaytanic ways? Say! Say! And I am asking shareefu 'l `ulamas, what you are doing? Say, “O People! You are on the wrong way.” If as shareefu 'l `ulamas you can say, “Are you on the right way? If not, then the life you are living is now taking you to fire." Why are you not saying? You are not on right way? O `ulamas, O rabbis, why are you not fighting with Shaytan and instead you are fighting Mankind? No.
(That is the cause of ) all troubles and all miseries and all crises coming! The main reason that the chiefs of religion are not saying to people, “Beware!” I am looking at so many houses, and written on the entrance, "Beware of dog." It is a warning. And what do you think is most harmful to Mankind, a dog or Shaytan? Why are we not writing everywhere, "Beware of Shaytan."? People are running after Shatan and not heavenly ways. What are you doing? Allah Almighty first will ask you, `ulamas, rabbis, patriarchs, pope, and His Judgment will be very dangerous and terrible. Rabbis will be asked, “What did you do? Why are you not preventing your people from following Shaytan?” The `ulamas will be asked, “Why are you not saying to ummah, 'beware of Shaytan?'” At least you must order, O `ulamas from every nation, you must say to people to have the writing, “a`oodhu billahi min ash-Shaytaani ‘r-rajeem" and another writing, “bismillahi ‘r-Rahmaani ‘r-Raheem" that means, "O our Lord, we are running away from Shaytan and running to You, to be Your servants! O our Lord, protect us."
O People! Insaaf, be fair! You must be true ones with your conscience; don't try to cheat your conscience. Therefore, there are some holy words of the Seal of Prophet (s),
استفت قلبك وإن أفتاك الْمُفْتُون
istafti qalbak wa in aftuka 'l-maftoon,'
"You must ask your conscience, even if learned people say you can do something."
Don't be happy with their permissions; you must ask your conscience! If your conscience is saying, 'good,' follow it. If it is saying, 'not good,' don't follow it. Therefore, all nations must ask their conscience in doing everything, if they are happy and in satisfaction then do it and if not, don't do it.
O People! Don't be unhappy with me, but be unhappy with Shaytan saying, (Mawlana Shaykh stands)
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ اتَّقُواْ اللّهَ وَكُونُواْ مَعَ الصَّادِقِينَ
Wa koonoo m`aa as-saadiqeen,
Be among those who are righteous. (9:119)
(Mawlana Shaykh sits.) You will be with true ones; if you are going with them you will be happy and your face should be enlightened and you are going with them to the Divinely Presence. May Allah (swt) forgive us.
Fatihah.
Dome dome dome dome, Dome dome dome dome
Dome dome dome dome, Dome dome dome dome
Dome dome dome dome, Dome dome dome dome
Dome dome dome dome, Dome dome dome dome
May Allah forgive us.
Fatihah.
