The Greatest Honor

Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuh, Auzu Billahi Minashaytanir Rajeem. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem, Wassalatu Wassalamu ala Rasulina Muhammadin Sayyidul Awwalin wal Akhirin, Madad Ya Rasulallah, Madad Ya Sadat As’habi RasuLillah, Madad Ya Mashayikhina, Dastur Mawlana Sheikh Abdullah Faiz Daghestani, Sheikh Nazim al-Haqqani. Madad. Tariqatunas sohba, wal khayru fil jamiyya.

The brothers are miserable. A person who has a favor but does not benefit from that favor is foolish. The majority are from those kinds of people. Not only do they not benefit from it, they are an enemy. They are unfortunate, they have no luck. They are like people who have favors, have water, but are parched with thirst. They do not appreciate this favor. They are foolish, their minds are limited. They say, “We are smart, we read this, we read that, we finished this, we read those books”, but they are not.

Being from the Ummah Muhammadiyya is the greatest favor, the greatest honor. It is something that the prophets demanded. They wanted to be from the Ummah of Muhammad ﷺ instead of being prophets. But it was their duty and they accepted it. Allah ﷻ gave the best of worship and favors to our Holy Prophet ﷺ. Our Holy Prophet ﷺ was sent as the last prophet and he completed all the religion. Islam is the most perfect religion. There is no other religion and no other prophet after it. This religion is eternal. This religion is the religion of Allah ﷻ. Allah ﷻ granted this to our Holy Prophet ﷺ. May Allah ﷻ make us appreciate this favor.

There are many people who have showed up now saying that they are Muslims but do not respect our Holy Prophet ﷺ. They are unlucky. They say there is no intercession, they say don’t ask for Madad (help) and they talk nonsense. They are unfortunate because without the love of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, there is no benefit to people.

They say not to put anything between Allah ﷻ and the servant, but they themselves put the biggest thing. They do not put our Holy Prophet ﷺ, Awliya and righteous ones, but they put their own egos between them and Allah ﷻ. The ego is worse than the shaytan. They do not put Allah ﷻ and the Qur’an, they put the greatest shaytan, their ego. And their luck is bad because they have fallen into this state. May Allah ﷻ not put us in this state. May Allah ﷻ strengthen our faith. May we have a great love for our Holy Prophet ﷺ insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ protect us.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
