Happiness is Only with the Love of Allah ﷻ

As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh. A‘ūdhu Billāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. Wa ṣ-Salātu wa s-Salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-Awwalīna wa l-Akhirīn. Madad yā RasūlAllāh, Madad yā Sādāti Aṣḥābi Rasūlillāh, Madad yā Mashāyikhinā, Dastūr Mawlana Shaykh Abdullāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistāni, Shaykh Muḥammad Nāẓim al-Ḥaqqānī. Madad. Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-Suḥbah wa l-Khayru fi l-Jam‘iyyah.

AlhamduliLlah, we are sad we haven’t been here for 2 years. But Masha’Allah people are coming more and more for the love of Allah ﷻ, for obeying Allah ﷻ. Insha’Allah this will be Khayr/good for you, and for the Prophet salla Llahu a’layhi wa sallam to love us. This is important. We love him ﷺ but when he ﷺ loves us, we win. How does he ﷺ love us? Make more Salawat, more Dhikr, more praying – He ﷺ loves this.

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla also loves this. Allah ﷻ said, ‘ ’, ‘Inna Allāha lā yuhibbu l-kāfirīn’, ‘Indeed, Allah does not like the disbelievers.’ (Qur’ān 03:32). Allah ﷻ does not love the Kafir. Why? Because He ﷻ gives everything to him - Kufr means not accepting what Allah ﷻ gives and saying that this is coming from nowhere, by itself.

For this, Allah ﷻ does not love them; but if they accept the Creator, accept Allah ﷻ, Allah ﷻ will love everybody. Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm, ‘ ’, ‘Wa Rahmatī wasi’at kulla shay’in’, ‘My mercy encompasses all things.’ (Qur’ān 07:156). Allah’s ﷻ mercy can take [encompass] everything. Nothing’s big for Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. He ﷻ is the Creator and you can’t compare anything to Him ﷻ; Ḥāshā (far from it). In our Aqidah/creed of Ahlu s-Sunnah wa l-Jama’ah, you cannot imagine anything for Allah ﷻ. Our imagination cannot reach even a very small thing for Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla.

So if Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla loves us, we must be very happy, we must appreciate this. You must obey Him ﷻ and do what He ﷻ is ordering us. Because what He ﷻ orders, from His ﷻ mercy it is of benefit for us for everything; for spiritual and physical also. Because with Ibada/worship and with Ta’aa/obedience, everything in your body is taking power, taking light and taking blessings from Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Without this you are nothing.

SubhanaLlah we see the nonbelievers, they don’t have light. When they become Muslim, subhanaLlah you see [them] different. This is what Allah ﷻ gives for the Muslim, for the believer - Light. Because this light is coming from Allah. ‘ ’, ‘Al-Lahu Nūru s-samāwāti wal ard’, ‘Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth.’ (Qur’ān 24:35). Light on light. This is for the Mu’min/believer also. Because when Allah ﷻ loves him, He ﷻ gives from His ﷻ attribute for the believer also. If not, they are, ‘ ’, ‘Zulumātun ba’duhā fawqa Ba’d’, ‘Darkness, one above another.’ (Qur’ān 24:40). Darkness on darkness. In a dark night, like in a dark ocean - this is for the nonbeliever. This means [having] darkness, no light, no Nur. And darkness inside also making him be very stressful, very unhappy, and very sad. “Why am I like this?” And he is looking for something to take this out from his heart and for him to be happy. Happiness is near them, but they don’t find it.

People are cheated. Shaytan is cheating people, and showing good as bad and bad as good. This is what shaytan is doing. And many people who think that they are clever and that they know everything are cheated, and in the end lose everything.

The clever ones know what is good and what is not good, and they find in the end [the way] to be believer, to accept Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. When they do this, they become happy. Without this there’s no happiness. Happiness can only be with the love of Allah ﷻ.

Because from the time of Adam ‘alayhi s-salām, many were like this. And also the most near, our Prophet salla Llahu a’layhi wa sallam, the Last Prophet. In his ﷺ time, Mushriks were listening to the Qur’an and they were enjoying it because they know poems, and they said, “This not a poem. This is something different.” But from their stubbornness, they didn’t accept Islam. But when Prophet salla Llahu a’layhi wa sallam sent Sayyidina as-Sahabiyy Quhafa to Madinah, he was teaching them. And when these people were hearing, they immediately became Muslim. These people are clever, very clever people, you cannot cheat them. For this, who is clever quickly accepts Islam. And this is what was happening.

But shaytan is now showing Islam as bad, as not good. And these people without coming - if they come near and look at what this is, they immediately become Muslim. This is a special thing from Allah ﷻ for the one who has good thinking and is looking for reality, he finds it quickly in Islam. Allah ﷻ gave us

without thinking and without doing, but AlhamduliLlah people are accepting and coming back to their roots.

We must be thankful for Allah ﷻ for this Ni’mah/favor. He ﷻ can make us from another type of people, or another kind, or Christians. He ﷻ made us human beings and from the Ummah of the Prophet salla Llahu a’layhi wa sallam -, “Khayru l-Umam”, “The Best of Nations”. Prophet salla Llahu a’layhi wa sallam is, “Sayyidu l-Mursalin”, “The Master of the Messengers”. Our Prophet salla Llahu a’layhi wa sallam is the Master of Prophets. His ﷺ nation is the best nation. And he ﷺ is, “Habibu Rabbil a’lamin”, “The Beloved of the Lord of the worlds”.

He ﷺ is the Beloved of Allah ﷻ. Allah ﷻ praised him. And he ﷺ reached the highest station that nobody from His ﷻ creatures has reached; no Malak/Angel, no Jinn and no Ins/human being. Even when the Prophet salla Llahu a’layhi wa sallam went to Miraj, Sayyidina Jibril said, “[I reach] only for here. After here is for you, only you. Nobody can be in this

station.” There is, the secrets of our Prophet salla Llahu a’layhi wa sallam. When he ﷺ reached there, in that place there’s no time, no place, nothing. You cannot imagine this. It is beyond our imagination and thinking.

These people are making ridiculous things and saying, Ḥāshā (far from it), that Allah ﷻ has a son; how can it be! Maybe if you said that an elephant married an ant, maybe you can believe this. But our planet, all the planet is not like even one small atom compared to the universe; you cannot see it. And this whole universe, Allah ﷻ created it. You can imagine the Greatness of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. For this, many of them leave [Christianity]. The real Christianity was not like this. They changed it after and made it only for taking benefit from it.

But Sayyidina Isa, Sayyidina Musa and all the prophets are in Islam. The only religion is Islam. You cannot say that they are not Muslim. All of them were in Islam. And Islam means Peace. Peace cannot be without Islam. We see what’s happening all around the world, people killing each other. And especially Christians, they say that Muslims are killing. Allah ﷻ ordered us to fight bad people, not innocent people, and not to kill children, women and old people, and not to burn anything – this is our order. If they fight, they were fighting like noble fighting, not killing. But what Sayyidina Isa ‘alayhi s-salām ordered the

Christians was that even if somebody hits you, don’t hit him; if he slaps you, turn your face [so that] maybe he slaps you one more. But what they did, they were burning people alive; Muslim, Jewish, whatever they find. They were killing a million people and they were carrying the cross. How can this be acceptable? For this, many people left this religion because they know that it is not real Christianity. They’ve changed it from A to Z; there’s nothing left. But they are afraid, [trying] to make people not accept Islam, [or else] their benefit will finish.

That’s why they are doing this, but insha’Allah Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will send somebody whom we are waiting for, Sayyidina Al Mahdi ‘alayhi s-salām. Insha’Allah this time is near. Everyday becoming [more] near and near. That time, the world will be all in peace. No border, no Passport, no Visa, no - what did they say - Rooster, Booster Rooster, and you must come take vaccination – there will be no more of all of this insha’Allah. It is near insha’Allah. There will be peace and Barakah and happiness in these days insha’Allah. It will be insha’Allah near. May Allah ﷻ make us reach these days, happy days, all of us insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
