(Mawlana Shaykh stands) Laa ilaaha illa-Llah. Laa ilaaha illa-Llah. Laa ilaaha illa-Llah Muhammadun Rasoolullah `alayhi salaatullah. As-salaatu wa 's-salaam `ala jamee`il-anbiyaa wa 'l-mursaleen, salawaatullahi wa salaamullahi `alayhim ajma`een, wa man tabi`ahum bi-ihsaan ila yawm ad-deen. (Mawlana Shaykh sits) Madad yaa... madad ... mala'ika... (arabic) ... ikraamihi wa ... bi saahibul waqt. thumma salaatu was-salaamu `alaykum yaa RijaalAllah, yaa `ibaadAllah. We are asking support from Allah, from awliyaa, and from Qutb az-Zamaan, to bring forth Sahib az-Zamaan and to bring down unbelief in this dunya!
As-salaamu `alaykum, yaa `ibaadAllah! Most people in this world understand English; therefore, if we are speaking a little of bit English, they may understand, if they are not drunk. Mostly western people are drunk and eastern people are in-between being drunk and not. Some of them are saying, "We must be drunk," and others are saying, "We must not be drunk. " When they are drunk, we may take everything from their pockets! They must understand, they are drunk because they are drinking the love of this life that is not permanent. It is a temporary life making western people drunk, and after them it is making the Muslim world to be drunk, also. And if you are looking you will see from east to west, from north to south, that Shaytan is making them to drink from the love of this temporary life and to be drunk. Very few people are not drinking, they are refusing, but Shaytan is going around saying, "O, you must taste this drink! It is such a strange and powerful medicine to take away your sorrows and unhappiness. Taste a little bit!" When they taste it they will be drunk, na`oodhu billah!
O People! From east to west, north to south, the first command from the beginning of life for the Children of Adam, from that day the first prophet, Adam (a), said, "O my children! I did a wrong thing. I was happy in Paradise, but I listened and heard, and I thought Shaytan was my best friend. He advised me, and I kept him as my adviser, but I was wrong to make Shaytan my adviser. I was in Paradise, living an ever-sweet life, whose beauties, pleasures, and tasteful ni`mat, favors of Allah you cannot imagine! Then that one came to me and said, 'O Adam! Keep me as your adviser. For what? I am coming to say something that is not clear for you. Your Lord is preventing you from eating from that holy tree in Paradise, and I know the secret behind why Allah Almighty made it forbidden for you to eat from it. This is shajarat al-khuld, the Tree of Eternal Life, that is never going to be finished! It will be there forever and its secret, from which your Lord is preventing you, is that if anyone eats from it, they will never die and never get out of Paradise, they will always be here! Therefore, He made it haraam, forbidden for you to eat from it. Eat and you will be here forever, never getting out!'"
That was the adviser coming to Sayyidina Adam (a), but he said, "No, it can never be!" And when it was hopeless with Adam, Shaytan came to our mother and said, "O Hawa! I advised Adam and he did not accept from me, but you can make him believe in me. If you eat from that tree you will be in Paradise forever, never dying or passing away!"
Our mother said, "I cannot do it."
"Please, listen to my advice. If you only take one bite without swallowing, only tasting, it is enough."
Then Eve, our mother, said, "O Adam! What is your opinion about that adviser?"
He said, "O Eve! Get away! The Lord of Heavens prevented it, so why are you insisting on it?"
"O Adam! Please, only one bite!" she said.
Laa hawla wa laa quwatta illa billah. Laa hawla wa laa quwatta illa billah. That is Shaytan's advice to our grandmother and grandfather. All holy books teach that incident in order to inform Mankind. It is written in the Old Testament, the New Testament, Psalms and the Holy Qur'an. Ptuuh (spit) on Shaytan!!! I am shouting at him because he wants to bring people to Hell!!! Everything that was covering their bodies fell down. Laa hawla wa laa quwatta illa billahi 'l-`Aliyyu 'l-`Azheem. And everything was shouting at Adam and Eve when they became disobedient to their Lord, Allah Almighty! (Mawlana Shaykh stands and sits) Allah Almighty said, "O Adam! You were a disobedient one to My order, get out!" And everything in Paradise said, "Get out, O disobedient one! You have no respect for your Creator and you are following Shaytan, so get out!"
That was Shaytan's advice to the first man. Therefore, Adam (a) said to his children, "O my children! I did wrong because I did something against the holy commands of my Lord. I did it and listened to the advice of Shaytan, but now I regret it. You must not listen to Shaytan! I was in Paradise, but now I am in this world full of troubles! Only those who are against Shaytan will be under heavenly protection, and they will be happy here and Hereafter! If not, you are going to be punished here and Hereafter."
That is the advice of Adam to his sons and grandsons up to the end of this world, but now what is happening? We are living near to the Day of Resurrection. Yawm al-Qiyamah is approaching and you are looking from east to west, from north to south, that all of Mankind is in endless trouble. They are unhappy and under heavy pressure from the Earth, on their physical beings and on their souls. And you see all Mankind has just fallen into an ocean of troubles, because Shaytan is making them drunk, saying, "Be drunk a little bit to save yourselves from trouble, as without drinking you cannot save yourselves."
Everyone is running after prohibited things. If you are saying, "It is haraam," they are saying, "You don't understand!" You will understand what will happen when your soul is taken out from your physical being and you will see when you are put in your grave, but it is going to be too late! No one is listening now. The whole world is drunk, asking to save themselves from troubles and miseries by following Shaytan's advice to drink. Some of them are shouting like dogs, like donkeys, like wolves, or like so many kinds of animals. They think, "Ohhh, we are on a high position! Every trouble has left us and we are happy now." That is happening now on Earth! They are not coming to obey their Lord's holy command, "Don't be drunk with the urine of Shaytan." Whoever drinks alcohol is drinking the urine of Shaytan! Every night Shaytan leads them to drink, tawbah. What shall we do with the Turks? They are all drinking!
In the time of the Ottomans they never gave any permit for selling or consuming spirits, but now people are running to be westernized. What are they doing? Our government says, "You may do this," and now in countries throughout the Islamic world, you my find that they are making drinking halaal, permitted! And all of them are also running to be westernized people and governments. Wait a little, and there will come on you what never came on other nations. I am not sending from the Heavens or from under their feet, but I am making you enemies to each other. Even in a home, a wife sees her husband as an enemy, a husband sees his wife as an enemy, and children are enemies to their parents in such a way. There is no more mercy in their hearts!
O Mankind! Time is over and now a heavenly punishment is approaching all people. Only those who are running to Allah Almighty will be saved and others will be punished here in the graveyard and on the Day of Resurrection! May Allah forgive us.
O People! After one week it is going to be the New Year for the Muslim world, Hijri, migration, and the year 1432 is coming. Muharram is coming loaded with unexpected punishments, and not millions but billions of people will be taken away! Beware, O Mankind! Come and obey your Creator, Allah Almighty, (Mawlana Shaykh stands) and try to obey the holy order of the Heavens through the Seal of Prophets, Sayyidina Muhammad (s)! (Mawlana Shaykh sits) May Allah forgive us.
Yaa Rabbee! Give us a sultan to save the Muslim inhabitants, and send us madad as-samaa, heavenly powers to support us against Shaytan! Send us a sultan to destroy everything Shaytan puts in front of people, making them not believe and not follow the ways of prophets. May Allah forgive us.
Fatihah.
