BismiLlahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim:

(Qur’ān 61:08). ‘Yurīdūna liyuṭfiū nūra Llahi bi-afwāhihim wa Llahu mutimmu nūrihi walaw kariha l-kāfirūn, ‘They want to extinguish the light of Allah with their mouths, but Allah will perfect His light, even though the disbelievers dislike it.’

Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla says Kafirs want to extinguish the light of Allah ﷻ with their mouths. The light of Allah ﷻ is everlasting. Kufr is void, but Allah ﷻ is everlasting. The way ordered by Allah ﷻ is the true way necessary for people. It is the beneficial way. And Kufr cannot tolerate this way. They attack it at the slightest thing and want to destroy it. But Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will not give them a chance. They will not have a chance.

Those who attack Mu’mins and Muslims will be disappointed. Their animosity is because of the Iman in Allah ﷻ. They feel animosity towards people with Iman for they believe in Allah ﷻ. They don’t want it. They want them to follow Shaytan. Allah ‘Azza waJalla will complete His ﷻ light whether they like it or not. They can do anything they want. Those who are with Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla will win. Those who go against Him ﷻ will lose.

People with mind, people who think must know this. They call it logic or intelligence. Let them call it whatever they want. Those who go against Allah ‘Azza waJalla have no chance of winning. They will lose. Certainly, they will lose, because Allah ﷻ is the Creator. How can you go against the Creator? You have nowhere to escape. You have nowhere else to go. You can speak as much as you want. And they want to finish it with their mouths, by speaking. As He ﷻ said, they want to take out the sun by blowing. It is not a clever thing at all.

Therefore, believers should not be afraid. Those who believe in Allah ﷻ should not be afraid. Those who follow our Holy Prophet ﷺ should not be afraid. Those who believe in Awliya should not be afraid. Those who are together with believers should not be afraid. Who should fear are those who are against Allah ﷻ, because they have nothing to lean on. Their support is void, it has no value at all.

They speak so today. Tomorrow they will speak differently. But the way of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is one. It doesn’t change. Therefore, believers shouldn’t pay attention to anyone. They shouldn’t pay attention to the people of Kufr. As we said, they bring up something and say something every day. We should keep on going on our way, as this way is a beautiful way. The way of Allah ﷻ is a beautiful way. May Allah ﷻ make all of us steadfast insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
