Accepting the Truth is Our Greatest Duty

An Ayati Karimah says that Allah ﷻ has appointed everyone somewhere and has shown them the way. Whoever is on the way of Allah ﷻ, the way of paradise will open for him. A person who says that this way is wrong, a person who says that the truth is falsehood, the way of hell opens for him. That way will be open, and the way of paradise will be closed. Therefore, it is a favor of Allah ﷻ. Muslims should know this favor as a mercy from Allah ﷻ to us. They should know what a great favor it is that Allah ﷻ has given it to Muslims, children and everyone.

Some people, not some but most people hardly ever walk on the way of truth. They obey their egos, they obey others. They deny the truth. When you deny the truth, the truth is not going to end because of your denial. It will not become wrong. The truth is the truth. What is wrong is to deny the truth. The sun will not disappear if you say that there is no sun. The sun exists, and the truth exists. We should believe in the truth. Allah ﷻ is Al-Haqq, and the truth is the order of Allah ﷻ. The rest is falsehood which has no benefit. It is only loss to those who don’t accept the truth. To those who accept the truth, it is the greatest favor and the greatest benefit. A favor greater than money, wealth, eating, drinking, health, wellness and everything, is the truth, to accept the truth and to be on the way of truth. If all of the rest are under your control, if the whole world with its army, police, money, mountains and rocks belongs to you, as long as there is no [acceptance of] truth, there is no benefit, because they will not go with you when you pass away.

Those who don’t accept the truth burn themselves in order to save themselves while departing from this world. They say that they are over by becoming ash. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is Powerful over everything. He ﷻ let you be from nothing. And He ﷻ will create you again from your ash, and your account will be paid in hell. As you burnt yourself, you will burn forever in hell.

If they don’t accept it, they will burn, in short. May Allah ﷻ protect us. For the honor of these beautiful months, may He ﷻ not separate us from the truth, because there is falsehood which appears like the truth. That is the people who get by as Muslims but mislead other Muslims. May Allah ﷻ protect us.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
