Yaa Dhul Jalaali wa 'l-Ikraam wa 'l-`izza 'l-ladhee laa turaam. Yaa Rabb zid Habeebik `izzan wa sharafan nooran wa surooran, sultaanan wa ridwaana. Thabitna `ala mahabatihi, thabitna `ala khidmaatihi, thabitna bihi ilayk, yaa Rabbana. Yaa Rabb ighfir wa 'rham wa Anta khayru 'r -Rahimeen, asturna bi sittrika al-Jameel, yaa Sattar.

As-salamu`alaykum yaa Saahibu 'l-Waqt! As-salaamu `alayk, yaa Qutb az-Zaman! As-salaam `alayk, Qutbu 'l-Mutasarrif! As-salaam `alayk yaa Awtaad, yaa Budalaa, yaa Nujabaa, Nuqabaa, Akhyaar, as-salaamu `alaykum!

O our Lord! Grant us from Your endless Mercy Oceans! Send us from Your selected ones who may guide us to obedience to You, O our Lord! We are endlessly happy, we are in endless pleasure, we are in endless enjoyment, and we are endlessly happy, pleased, and in pleasure to be Your servants! O our Lord! Grant us the ability to keep our oath from the Day of Promises in Your Divine Presence. And we say, a`oodhu billahi min ash-Shaytani 'r-rajeem. And we say to representative of Allah Almighty's protection for servants on this planet: We are running to you for protection from the most terrible, most dangerous enemy that never leaves us. It is always running to everyone, to lead them on the wrong way, to carry them off the right way.

O People! A`oodhu billahi min ash-Shaytani 'r-rajeem. When you say this, you must understand that one of the chosen, heavenly ones will do this. There may be billions of shaytans, but out of good manners we say, in the Holy Name of our Lord, Allah! (Mawlana Shaykh stands.) A`oodhu billahi min ash-Shaytani 'r-rajeem. A`oodhu billahi min ash-Shaytani 'r-rajeem. (Mawlana Shaykh sits.) It is in His Name, but we are not calling Allah to protect everyone or just us, we are not calling Him to give us His direct protection, no. He is the Greatest! There is no measure of our Lord's Greatness! Allahu akbar! (Mawlana Shaykh stands.) Allahu akbar! Allahu akbar! You must bow yourself in front of His Greatness, O people! (Mawlana Shaykh sits.) Allah, Allah.

O People! Say, bismillahi 'r-Rahmani 'r-Raheem, for every pleasure, every success, every happiness, every enjoyment, and every illumination from His heavenly presence. Only one speck may give everything on this planet, dunya, everything that it is asking. One speck may give them endless pleasure, endless hope, endless satisfaction, and endless peace! If the smallest point from our Lord's grant were to reach our world, it would make everything swim in heavenly Pleasure Oceans, Pleasement Oceans, and Peace Oceans, everything! He is Great! (Mawlana Shaykh stands.) Allahu akbar! Allahu abkar! Allahu akbar! (Mawlana Shaykh sits.)

O `Ulamas! What do you understand when Allah Almighty says:

وَمَا قَدَرُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ قَدْرِهِ

wa maa qadaroo 'Llaahu haqqa qadrih?

No just estimate have they made of Allah, such as is due to Him. (Al-Zumar, 39:67)

Is that from the Holy Qur'an or not? O Salafi `Ulamas! O Azhari `Ulamas! O Shi`a `Ulamas! O every learned one that is claiming, "We know heavenly knowledge." Heavenly knowledge now disappeared. If one of them came and showed himself you might attack him, you might kill him. Therefore, they have now been hidden, because your mentality never carries what they say; your mentality is so small, la yudhkar, that it may not to be mentioned. How can you reach an understanding with your mentality? You cannot find pure mentalities among Mankind now, because Shaytan is sowing its nonsense and heedless bizr, seeds, everywhere. And now, therefore, you can't find, in the east and west, from north to south, a pure and clean mentality. Something from shaytanic ideas is making it dirty. If a very small spot from Shaytan enters the mentality of a person, it makes his mentality dirty. The same as putting clean and pure milk in a pot with a little dirt in it, the whole milk will be spoiled and you must throw it away.

Therefore, now you can't find a saleem (pure) mentality among mankind. Even a spot from Shaytan in their mentality is spoiling the whole, making it useless, and ready to be thrown away. Therefore, what was the Seal of Prophets (s) saying? O `ulamas, those who are claiming, "We are `ulamas," what was the Seal of Prophets (s) saying? (Mawlana Shaykh stands.) An-nazhaafatu min al-imaan, "Cleanliness is from faith." Is that right? Is there anything wrong with that? (Mawlana Shaykh sits.) Purity is one strong pillar of our faith; without that pillar your faith is unacceptable. Okay? What is your opinion? There will be no opinion; don't have your own opinions, no! Everyone has an opinion, as people say, "In my opinion..." Who are you and what is your opinion? Are you not ashamed to voice your opinion in front of heavenly knowledge? What is that? But people are so proud and so dirty. Yes, that is very important. People are saying, "According to my opinion." Who are you, O dirty one, to say, in the face of heavenly knowledge, "According to my opinion?" Who are you and what is your value? No opinions! There is reality that comes from the heavens, which is not separate from the Lord of Heavens. Yet people are daring to voice their opinions, no!

Qur'an Kareem is waadih, so clear. Don't discuss it. Don't say, "My opinion." Who are you to say, "My opinion"? When has Allah given permission to you to say, "My opinion"? Or could it be that your opinion originates from the negative center of shaytanic mentality, from Shaytan's center? Shaytan has so many instruments, and he may send his dirty, dirty opinions, putting something dirty in one's mind, and some other filth in another one's. When Shaytan finds the hearts of people without a guardian, it comes and puts such dirty opinions in and they are added to their mentalities. We are not using opinions! O doctors in Shari`ah and, O Salafi `ulamas, and O Azhari `ulamas, and O Shi`a `ulamas, don't say, "In my opinion!" The Holy Qur'an is so pure! Leave your opinions and leave your imagination! Opinions and imaginings are just from Shaytan. Allah Almighty sent a pure spring for us to drink from and for us to use. Use that, and don't use what you are thinking and saying, "According to my opinion."

Therefore, people now from east to west, and from north to south are trying to add something to the pure Shari`atullah, pure heavenly ways that are reaching to the heavenly presence of the Lord of Heavens. An-nazhaafatu min al-imaan (cleanliness is from faith). What is an-nazhaafah? What is your understanding? Don't voice your opinion! It is so clear. Don't create something and say that, "This is my opinion." No! Shari`atullah, the ways that are leading people from Earth to heavens are so clear! Nazhaafah is cleanliness. The Lord of Heavens is asking from you only cleanliness, and He is ordering, "Be clean!" Which dirty thing is making Mankind dirty? Shaytanic opinions and the dirtiness of this dirty life. Ad-dunya daniyyah (the lowly worldly life). Is my Arabic okay? It is a little bit unlike your Arabic, but sometimes we may say something and you must understand. That is a ta`beer, expression, ad-dunya ad-daniyyah. Daniyyah means the lowest thing, something of no value, or something of dirtiness that is to be thrown away.

O People! In this dunya, you must try to reach heavenly aspects, not this dunya's daniyyah, the lowest and most najas, dirtiest aspects. Don't run after that! Don't bring opinions, saying, "My opinion is this and that." The Lord of Heavens never left anything in the Holy Qur'an that is to not be understood; everything is so clear! Why bring so many opinions and make your mentalities dirty? People's mentalities are trying to measure heavenly values and they cannot because it is so pure. Use it as it came, so pure! Carry those pure directives, not your own opinions and judgments, no. Haadha Siraatu 'l-Mustaqeem la `iwaaja feeh (this is the Straight Path, in which there is no crookedness). The Lord of Heavens is saying, "My Way is straight." It is not crooked, there is no curling or turning. But you are using shaytanic methods and opinions and you are trying to bring other ways. And you are saying, "We must also look at western civilization." What is that civilization? They do not know how to clean themselves properly!! How then, can you talk of western civilization?!

O `Ulamas! Why are you not speaking about this to people, making them wake up and follow the best that has reached us from the Seal of Prophets (s)? That one is a pure one, the most clean one and the most right one! La `iwaaja feeh (no crookedness in it), Qur'an Kareem is not for dead people, it is not just for going to the cemetery and reciting there. For what are you reciting? He passed away. Recite on living people! Teach them what the Holy Qur'an is saying! Leave your opinions! Therefore, now do you know that so much chaos is coming to the Islamic world because of shaytanic opinions, hmm? What happened? People are split into seventy-two groups. All of them are saying, "This is my opinion!" That one says, "My opinion." No! Al-ladheena yuthabitoon, to whom Allah Almighty is making clear everything: "I just chose some of My sincere servants to understand what is necessary for people understand. Follow them!"

Now so many mindless people are saying, "This is my opinion. Those four madhhabs, the four schools (of thought) are not true. No need for them! Everyone may find his own way to their destination." If a person knows his destination, why use a guide? May he follow it? It is impossible. Therefore, Allah Almighty sent the Seal of Prophets (s) to give knowledge of the ways to heavens so that all of them are on the same way, which is one way. But if you go right, leaving the main road and then run on the left hand, then you are on the wrong ways, full of shaytanic opinions.

O People! We are here, sitting and addressing all people from east to west, from north to south. That is a khulaasah, summary, for people. Leave saying, "My opinion," and try to follow the real way that the Seal of Prophets (s) brought to all nations! Don't follow your opinions and don't use your mentalities, because your mentalities are always on the wrong way. Satan is coming and dirtying your mentalities. When it is dirty with shaytanic opinions then it is finished. You never understand anything. Therefore, people now are running away from beliefs and running away from heavenly declarations, heavenly messages and heavenly messengers and they are saying, "My mentality is never accepting such a thing." Who are you? From where are you bringing such foolish ideas? Say what is the spring, the source? From where are you bringing such nonsense opinions? What is the source? In Holy Qur'an? No, bringing from shaytanic sources.

May Allah forgive us.

O People! We must try to reach the real way for understanding, as that is the aim of holy people: to teach what is true and what is wrong. If a person can't make a separation between true ones and wrong ones, that person is just going to lose everything. First of all, it is an obligation for learned people among Muslims as well as in Christianity and Judaism to know the real source of truth. Truth is one, from the beginning up to end. The first man was saying, laa ilaaha illa-Llah and up to the end, you must say, la ilaaha illa-Llah. But shaytanic sources are making people to create or bring so many nonsense opinions. Everyone is making a sanam, idol for himself and worshipping that. At least, they are making what is in the mirror to be their guide or idol. And we are living through a most difficult time because everyone is going to bring some wrong opinions, because nonsense opinions from Shaytan are never-ending. If wrong opinions enter the mentality of people, their mentality will be thrown away, corrupted!

We are asking for pure people. Therefore, Allah Almighty is ordering, "You must ask from pure people, who are true ones." Who are they? Saadiqeen, truthful people. Did you ever find one of them, O Salafi `ulamas? Say to us and we may follow them also. Azhar 'ash-Shareef `ulamas, did you find what Allah Almighty is ordering?

كُونُواْ مَعَ الصَّادِقِينَ

koonoo m`a as-saadiqeen.

Be with pious, sincere people. (9:119)

Which one did you find? Are you saying, "I am enough for myself," or are you making your dirty idol, your shaytanic opinions, as the Children of Israel, who put in front of themselves a golden cow? And Allah Almighty was never ordering them to make a golden cow to be their guide to Him! Now people are on the same way, as then. They are using so many golden cows, not asking for true ones. How they will be saved from this world's troubles, or from the fire on the Day of Resurrection prepared for wrong people?

May Allah forgive us.

Fatihah.
