Do Not Lose Hope

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.

May this day be blessed and good. Insha’Allah this year will start well and end well with victory to Islam. May this Kufr be defeated insha’Allah. Kufr has become so widespread everywhere. However, the judgment is from Allah ﷻ. No one can go against the judgment of Allah ﷻ. Our Holy Prophet ﷺ left Mecca in the worst time and in the worst condition and spread the light all over the world. They thought that they would kill our Holy Prophet ﷺ and end this work. But they were cleverer than these people now. There was only one man that they thought they would kill, whereas as long as Allah ﷻ protects someone, no one can go against him.

Nowadays, they are trying to finish Muslims all over the world. With the permission of Allah ﷻ, the religion of Allah ﷻ will not be finished. It will be victorious eventually. Whoever trusts in Allah ﷻ and wants to help Allah ﷻ, Allah ﷻ will help him too. BismiLlahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim: ‘ ’, ‘And Allah will surely help those who help Him.’ (Qur’ān 22:40). Those who are on the way of Allah ﷻ and want to declare the word of Allah ﷻ, Allah ﷻ will help them. The help of Allah ﷻ will be with them, says Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. Muslims should not look at the current situation and lose hope. We are divided, fighting with each other unable to get along well. Wherever there are Muslims, there is Fitnah. However, Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla says not to fall into hopelessness.

Our Holy Prophet ﷺ is the biggest example for us. All by himself, he didn’t fall under that Kufr and kept on going strong. He migrated from his beloved land. Our Holy Prophet ﷺ loved Mecca. And migration was not an easy thing. But our Holy Prophet ﷺ went through all hardships for the pleasure of Allah ﷻ. And Allah ﷻ helped him. He entered Ka’bah, Mecca, the place where he was born with victory. And Allah ﷻ gave the whole world, the whole universe to our Holy Prophet ﷺ.

Of course, this situation is upsetting for mankind. So much Kufr and objection. Mankind is probably living through the worst time since ‘Adam ‘alayhi s-salam. All kinds of shamelessness, all kinds of Kufr, all kinds of objection, going against Allah ﷻ and denying Allah ﷻ; anything you can think of – they are getting worse each day now in the end of times. But they are not important. All of them are a test. Mankind should not lose hope. ‘ ’, ‘Do not despair of the mercy of Allah’. (Qur’ān 39:53). It is an order - do not fall into hopelessness. Do not lose hope in the mercy of Allah ﷻ. Allah ﷻ is certainly with Muslims and Mu’mins. May this be a good year. We entered it with worship insha’Allah. And whoever completes it with worship will be with blessings, safety and health and will be protected from this strange illness they brought up. Their evil will return to them. May the evil reach the evil ones and the good reach the good ones insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
