Believers are Brothers

A’ūdhu bi-Llāhi mina sh-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

(Qur’ān 49:10). Allah ﷻ says: ‘The believers are but brothers, so make settlement between your brothers.’ Muslims are brothers. Make up with your brothers. You should get along well. It is the order of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. It is usually difficult to carry out this order. Fitnah occurs between those on the right way. For those who are on other ways, it is easier. When something happens, we see more often that they help or support each other. There is a lot of Fitnah for those who are on the right way, who are from either of the four Maddhabs. Whereas, just like you want goodness to yourself, it is the order of our Holy Prophet ﷺ to wish the same to your Muslim brothers. It is a good thing.

Believers should wish people not to be in need of anyone, to be on the way of Allah ﷻ, and be happy for them. They should be happy when something good happens to their Mu’min brothers. But unfortunately, shaytan is not happy when good things happen to people. He is happy when bad things happen. Whereas, when good things happen, they will happen to you as well. And when bad things happen, you are in the same place. You are in the same ship. If the ship sinks, all of you drown with it. If the ship is going well, everyone rich and poor live on well.

This is the beautiful disposition of Allah ﷻ. But people and shaytan try to destroy it and never leave it. Bad ones stand by each other. And good ones fall into the Fitnah of shaytan and do things that Allah ﷻ dislikes. Envy is the biggest attribute of shaytan. And people are given more of this attribute. Envy means disliking and hating the good things of others. Whereas Allah ﷻ has given it to them. Objecting to that is going against Allah ﷻ. There are many Hadiths of our Holy Prophet ﷺ that say that a person is not a true believer unless he loves other believers. As we are in the end of times, it is more frequent these days.

Wish everyone goodness, and certainly the same goodness will come to us both physically and spiritually. If they are fine, wish that Allah ﷻ makes them even better; wish them to go on the right way, earn in a permissible way and do good services. Do not envy anyone. When you see someone well, be happy for him. It is a self-training for your ego, ruling over your ego. Otherwise, you fall after your ego. And your ego doesn’t want anything but badness. May Allah ﷻ protect us from the evils of our ego. May Allah ﷻ give goodness to Muslims. Whatever good goals they have, may they reach them. There are many sick people, may they be cured insha’Allah.

Our brothers all over the world sent us their Qur’an Khatms, Ayat and Surahs, Tasbihat and Salawat, Dalail Khairat. We dedicate them first of all to the soul of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, to his Ahl ul-Bayt and Sahabah, to the souls of all Prophets, souls of Imams of the four Maddhabs and the Mashayikh, souls of all our ancestors, especially Mawlana Shaykh Nazim, Hajjah Anna and Hala Sultan, to the souls of all the departed, for goodness to come and for wishes to come true. May everything be good insha’Allah. May the sick be cured. May the sufferings end. May the good goals of everyone occur. May we be protected from the Fitnah of the end of times. May Allah ﷻ protect us from the hidden, apparent and all kinds of evil. May they be means to goodness. May the Duas of those who come here from near and far be accepted. May our offspring be good people. Shaytan is attacking both the young and old. May Allah ﷻ protect us from the evil of shaytan and the evil of bad ones. May there be happiness here and hereafter.

LiLlahi Ta’ala l-Fatihah.
