May Allāh ﷻ make our gathering a good and one that continues, in shā'a Llāh.
Allāh 'Azza wa Jalla states,
"Do not get involved in fitnah.
Stay away from fitnah."
Fitnah is something
Allāh ﷻ does not like.
Fitnah is the work of shayṭān.
The holy verse: "Wa lā yaḥīqu l-makru s-sayi'u illā bi-ahlihi" (35:43).
Meaning people who have
bad intentions only
harm themselves.
We are in the End of Times now.
It is easy
to make fitnah.
People think making fitnah
will benefit them.
Our Holy Prophet ﷺ says fitnah will
increase in End of Times. Here we are in those times
when fitnah will increase.
Because Muslims
have weak faith,
because what they learn is weak,
they think fitnah is good.
The shaykhs also tell us to stay away from fitnah
as does our Holy Prophet ﷺ. The advice of Mawlānā Shaykh
is to stay home and not go outside
when fitnah increases.
He says the person who does not go out
is in safety.
There is even danger for those who go
out to see what happened.
They only want to see what happened. That is why
the advice of the shaykhs
of ṭarīqah is to never cause fitnah.
They always obeyed those in authority
where they were and
got along with the people.
Troubles have always come to people who
caused fitnah.
Fitnah is evil.
There is a famous saying:
Sow the wind and reap the whirlwind.
So if you plant evil, do not think
you did nothing and can get away with it.
You will face so many more difficulties
and troubles that are
unknown and unpredictable.
Stay away from evil.
Even if evil is done to you, you be patient.
Allāh ﷻ would give its reward.
You would see the benefit of your patience.
Many times people get
saddened by something. They get sad thinking,
"Why did it happen this way? Why did this happen?"
Later they realize that if
that had not happened
something much worse could have happened.
They say this place looks into
worldly things too much. It is the same in Europe
as it is everywhere in the world.
There are not many
who look into spirituality anymore. The majority are those who
think about where there is an advantage.
Here, it is like that here, and it is not
much different there. It is the same everywhere.
Something happens and the person
does not think
it is Allāh's ﷻ will
and does not try to be patient.
He immediately tries to object to it.
And this pushes people towards
despair, towards hopelessness.
We did not come to this world
with our own will.
It is by the will of Allāh ﷻ.
He ﷻ sent us
to this world.
Since He ﷻ sent us,
we are His ﷻ servants. What He ﷻ says will happen.
If we had come by ourselves,
you could say, "We want this and we want that."
Meaning if you had come by your own will far from it,
such a thing cannot be anyway. Allāh ﷻ created you.
What Allāh ﷻ says occurs. This materialist world has lately become
Europe – like Europe everywhere.
The whole world has become Europe –
materialist and faithless.
The first rule of faith is belief in Allāh ﷻ.
Some of them plainly do not believe in anything.
While others say they believe
but what they do does not look
like belief.
It is a matter of faith.
Whenever one has difficulty,
it has become like this now, Allāh ﷻ forbid, when
one has difficulty he either immediately
commits suicide or goes crazy.
This is the harm in not having faith.
In the past,
people's faith was so strong that,
as it is also told in the Qur'ān,
there was a king who made people worship him.
Allāh ﷻ sent those people a prophet. He showed
them the path of truth. They believed
and said to the king, "No, why should we worship you?
There's only one Allāh ﷻ. You're a human like us.
You cannot be worshipped. We cannot worship you,"
they said. He attacked them,
he tortured them. However, he got no result.
Not like people here of this time.
There were no human rights and things like that then.
A man could act despotically and torture as he liked.
People of today have everything. They cannot
handle it when a little difficulty occurs.
That is due to faithlessness. When he could not get a result that way,
the king decided to try something else.
He dug a ditch, filled it with wood,
and lit a fire.
"Whoever does not turn back from this faith of his and worship me,
I will throw him in the fire," he said, "in the ditch."
None of them turned back.
Each one of them were thrown one by one.
Because of that strong faith,
none of them turned back.
He made a treacherous move there.
A woman came with her baby
in her arms and she had faith.
He said, "I'll burn your baby if you don't turn back."
The woman, due to her motherly nature,
hesitated a bit.
It is the wisdom of Allāh ﷻ that the
child started talking: "Don't hesitate.
It's not fire but paradise for us.
Don't listen to him.
Let's enter here," he said.
There, those people did that because of
their faith and gave their lives.
They did not turn back from their religion.
Otherwise, if they had been with the king,
the king would have given them whatever
they wanted. Actually the most valuable
thing, you look at it, and it is given for
the sake of Allāh ﷻ. They gave it for
the sake of Allāh ﷻ. He was supposedly
going to forgive her. Their faith was
more valuable to them than their lives. People of today, let alone
their lives, but they have already given their
faith for the smallest thing.
They have become faithless based on the
words of three or five mindless men.
Then they search for
peace and happiness.
They make weird decisions
and take to weird beliefs
on top of mountains
and here and there.
The further away they get from Allāh ﷻ,
the worse off
they get.
Here, this is the essence of the matter:
people who make fitnah
have no fear of Allāh ﷻ
because they do not believe in Allāh ﷻ.
Allāh ﷻ says to be with good ones.
He ﷻ says in a holy verse again, whosoever
is with the tyrants, certainly he will
cetainly find disaster and trouble.
So as we said, the shaykhs have nothing
to do with worldly works.
It is impossible for them
to be with those
makers of fitnah and bad people
because they have nothing but mercy and
goodness in their hearts.
Many times such strange things occurred
and we would speak with our
Mawlānā Shaykh about it.
Many things would happen – some man did
this and sometimes he did that, and we
would tell the Shaykh. Mawlānā Shaykh
would find
an excuse for him –
"This one is useful in this way,
and that one is useful in that way.
This is his manner and that is that one's way."
Or Mawlana would say other things and would
never want to talk badly about someone.
He would interpret his action as good.
So the shaykhs have goodness inside.
Never would... He was able to think so
but he did not think so.
So he would not even allow negative talk
about someone who was going to do evil,
who was going to do this and that.
Therefore, thanks to Allāh ﷻ, he never got
harmed by anyone.
Of course Mawlānā Shaykh also
sufferred pain, but nothing heavy
happened to him.
He was always comfortable.
Because you sow goodness and you reap goodness.
Mawlānā Rūmī has a story. It is also a
beautiful story regarding this matter.
Once upon a time a caravan headed off.
While in the desert, the caravan lost its way.
Then they reached a place.
By the time they got there, they had
finished all their food and supplies.
They were at the brink of death due to hunger.
A baby elephant appeared there –
a plump baby.
They decided to cut it up and eat it.
If it were an adult elephant, they would
not be able to do so, but since it was
little they decided they could do it.
One of them said, "Beware of
obeying your ego.
If you eat it, its parents will come and
tear you apart."
They got afraid and waited a little.
After a while, they saw that there
was nothing around, and their egos won.
They cut the poor animal, made kabab out of it, and ate it.
Only that one person did not eat.
He controlled his ego and said he would
not eat from it. The others were full to the brim.
They got sleepy and all of them fell asleep.
A little while later the animal's mother came looking for it.
She saw that her baby
had been killed there,
and the men who did it were still there so she went next to them.
They were all asleep.
She started sniffing them. They [elephants] smell well with a large nose.
Those who had eaten the animal
had its scent on them.
She took them apart one by one.
Only that one man did she not find the
smell on him and left him alone.
There, that is a great Mawlānā Rūmī story,
may Allāh ﷻ sanctify his secret.
He is great, one of the greatest of saints.
There is a great lesson in this.
Those who have evil in them certainly
something bad happens to them, and those who are
clean within – cleanliness is
by controlling your ego – are in safety.
That is why our advice is to fill your
insides with mercy
and with goodness.
A person might have some badness inside,
such as having a mean feeling, and he
might not be able to control his ego.
Do not bring it out into action. Those people are
in safety both in this world and in the hereafter.
Otherwise, he is not in safety in this world
either as he is living in constant fear.
"I wonder if the things I did will come out? I wonder
what will happen? I wonder if such will happen."
He lives in fear. However, the person who is clean inside has
no debt and nothing
to answer for except to Allāh ﷻ.
May Allāh ﷻ make us among His ﷻ servants.
May He ﷻ make us among the people in safety, in shā'a Llāh.
May we not be in need of anyone but Allāh ﷻ.
May we not fear anyone but Allāh ﷻ, in shā'a Llāh.
May Allāh ﷻ also give safety to Islām and Muslims,
and protect them, in shā'a Llāh.
Wa min Allāhi t-tawfīq, al-Fātiḥah.
