00:00I think that's some anti-frown cream and put it on my face.
00:07I'm trying to decide if I look more intelligent with glasses or without glasses.
00:15With glasses.
00:16Yeah, with glasses, she says.
00:18Alhamdulillah.
00:19So we'll go with it.
00:21A'udhu B'lai'min al-Shaytan al-Rajim.
00:23Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.
00:24Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.
00:54He has a spiritual power to be in so many places at once.
01:01One time, Abayizid Bastami, Allah bless him.
01:07He prayed Jummah in one mosque.
01:12And he said later on, after the Jummah, he said,
01:17I prayed also in such and such a place today and in such and such another place today.
01:23Named three places, for instance.
01:27People didn't know whether to believe him or not.
01:29So they sent riders out to those other mosques.
01:32Who prayed Jumatay was a Bayizid Bastami.
01:34Who prayed Jumatay was a Bayizid Bastami.
01:39Bayizid said, I was actually in 50,000 places, but I didn't think they'd believe me.
01:44So I just said three.
01:47So only I have that power.
01:50We have no power.
01:52Weak servants.
01:54We're weak servants.
01:55We're asking help from powerful ones to rescue us.
02:02Asking Sheikh Mohammed to connect us to Marana Sheikh Nazim and Sheikh Hashem to connect us to Grand Sheikh.
02:08That we can take spiritual help.
02:16I was looking at the Google Translate before we started.
02:20Yeah, because the light's clear.
02:28And there's a thunder coming.
02:32I asked the Google Translate, say, who is the collector of hearts?
02:56And it answered.
03:02The collector of hearts, the one who can keep us together with him and present us to prophets, all of us.
03:29Yes, we need.
03:32If that connection is going to be broken, we're going to be left to ourselves.
03:43What can we do?
03:47What can we do?
03:50You can't find water.
03:53The end of Surah.
03:54If all the water is drained out, how you can find fresh water?
04:02Where is the tap that's open?
04:05The streams that are running.
04:07This is what we need.
04:10If it's closed, we can't do anything.
04:13All are open.
04:16Open for your weak servants.
04:17We need.
04:19We need.
04:21We need.
04:23We're dispersed.
04:27Or the face of the earth.
04:30Here and there.
04:31Here and there.
04:32Each one in their place now.
04:34Who can bring our hearts together to be with Auliyah, to be with Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, to be with our Lord.
04:45One way, Aulana Sheikh Nazim said, to imagine yourself with, to be at Kaaba Sharif.
04:55We're present in Mecca, Muqarama, in front of Kaaba.
05:00He said, whole Auliyah are there.
05:03Imagine yourselves there.
05:05You'll be there with that blessing that's coming.
05:08And the second one, Rauda of Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
05:13Imagine yourself there.
05:15Aul Auliyah is there also.
05:16Prophet is there also.
05:18And blessings comes.
05:26We're asking you a way to get up.
05:31How it should be.
05:32Shaykh Nazim used to tell us, look at history, read history.
05:43And you see how it was in the Islamic world after Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
05:52After Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, how it was, it was difficult for the Sahaba, even big Sahaba.
06:11It was difficult for them to carry on, how it's going to be.
06:21How was the leadership going to be?
06:24Everyone knows what happened in the Islamic world.
06:28Oh, it came.
06:31When Shaykh passes away also, it's difficult for the followers, how they're going to find their way.
06:38The relationship with the Shaykh is more fine and subtle and all-encompassing than the relationship with parents.
06:55When the Shaykh passes away, the followers, what are you going to do?
07:02You can't get back that same thing.
07:05Unless Allah makes an opening.
07:12After they made the janazah for Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam,
07:19or when the news of Prophet's passing, Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, began to spread among the community,
07:27Sayyidina Omar took his sword and said, anyone said Prophet died, I'm going to kill them.
07:32And then Abu Bakr, radiyallahu anhu, recited that verse.
07:38How does it call?
07:39Awamah Muhammad, Allah, ahiru hijau.
07:44Allah rahmatullah raheem.
07:45Wa maa muhammadun illa rasool.
07:49Khad khalat min qablihi rrusul.
07:52Afa imma ta'uqutin anqalabtum ala aqabikum.
07:57Wa man yanqalib ala aqibayhi falen yadurrullaha shay'a.
08:02Wa siyazillahu shakini.
08:05Ameen.
08:05May Allah make us from the shakirin, the grateful ones, not the kuffar, the ungrateful wrong ones.
08:13Sayyidina Abu Bakr al-sadiq, radiyallahu anhu, he recited that verse.
08:17He recited that verse and Sahaba, they said, it's as if we heard that verse for the first time.
08:36What's the translation from that verse?
08:39Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, is a messenger.
08:51Khad khalat min qablihi rrusul.
08:53And before him came other messengers also.
08:58If he should pass from this life, will you turn on your heels?
09:06If he should pass or be slain.
09:10Or if he should pass or be slain, will you turn on your heels?
09:15And the one who does so, incurs only the displeasure of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
09:24Whereas his pleasure is for the grateful ones.
09:28Ameen.
09:29To be grateful.
09:31And to pass Allah's pleasure from everything.
09:34They said, as if we heard that verse for the first time.
09:38It meant when Sayyidina Abu Bakr al-sadiq was reciting, something was coming.
09:45The Sahaba were used to hearing wahi, revelation.
09:48They heard it.
09:49Not like us.
09:50Only we open the Quran, we read something.
09:53They knew what it felt like to hear wahi, revelation coming.
09:56They heard those verses when they came, when they were revealed.
10:01It meant that power, that tajeli was coming still on earth.
10:10In this case, came through Abu Bakr al-sadiq on his tongue.
10:14And we're asking up to today that power or that blessing or that barakah, even if it was coming in the time of Sahaba, 1,000 megawatts, even 6 watts, 5 watts, what it takes to light up a nightlight in the bathroom.
10:372 watts, 2 watts, 1, something, we're asking to continue.
10:43If it's going to go, we're lost.
10:46We ask that light, that electricity yet to reach us.
10:52From the ones who are authorized to carry that power.
10:56We're asking to reach our hearts and to gather us together under their holy gaze, Nazar.
11:09This we're asking.
11:12And we're asking the pleasure of Allah through all this, to be grateful ones, to do what Allah likes.
11:26To be as he likes and to do as he likes.
11:31That the result should be with him.
11:42You know the famous story for Abiyazid bin Stami, Qutus al-Hum-Siru.
11:46He intended to pray the finest two rakahs ever prayed.
11:52And he was a wali, Sultan Arafin.
11:54And he had a huge power.
11:57He set his intention and he went, Allahu Akbar.
11:59And he prayed, two rakahs, perfect with full concentration, with wali at power.
12:05Everything until he finished.
12:07Salamu alaykum.
12:08Salamu alaykum.
12:09And when he raised his hands to make dua, he heard a voice.
12:12Oh, my servant.
12:14How do you like me to accept that prayer?
12:17According to what you just recited or you will leave it to my mercy?
12:25And Abiyazid thought.
12:27He said, I did everything all right.
12:29Everything was perfect.
12:30According to what I did.
12:33Oh, my Lord.
12:35Allah said, okay.
12:37Oh, like that.
12:39We're putting words in Allah's mouth, but never mind.
12:42He said, okay.
12:44As you said, according to what you did.
12:46And suddenly Abiyazid was hearing voices.
12:49You put all your weight on me and you left yourself free.
12:54You pulled on me too hard and made me.
12:56It was his body parts complaining how he shifted his weight during the prayer.
13:01You put all the weight on one foot and not on the other.
13:06He went on for a few minutes and Abiyazid said, okay, stop, stop.
13:09By your mercy, oh, my Lord.
13:11I thought I was doing everything all right.
13:13I didn't go deep enough to see what it was.
13:16I leave it to your mercy.
13:18This is what's needed.
13:19The result to be with Allah.
13:24I was looking in Jibreel's book of Muhammad Sheikh's early Safgots in Syria, in Damascus, in Lebanon.
13:34And he was stressing the uswuhu khair.
13:42And in Sharia, if a person is wrong, if you do a wrong thing to someone, they have the right to retaliate, take revenge, justice.
13:55But, he said, when you take revenge, it opens the door to another corruption.
14:05You take your revenge, but then another door you didn't know about opens up and something you didn't imagine comes.
14:12It's better to forgive for the sake of Allah.
14:16Then the result is with Allah.
14:17When the result is with Allah, it comes to the perfect way.
14:26We want the perfect one.
14:29I remember one time in London, Green Lanes.
14:34All of us were making wudu.
14:37It was a small three-flat apartment.
14:39And there was one little bathroom out in back, from the days when there was no plumbing.
14:48Now there was plumbing.
14:50You would go there, and then you'd come in and make wudu in the kitchen sink.
14:55And first, there was only three or four people there.
14:58Finally came to be a hundred people, men and women, 150 people.
15:03Men and women.
15:04Everybody coming to make wudu in the kitchen sink, and they're cooking at the kitchen sink, washing, and everything is going on.
15:14I said to him,
15:15I said to him, how about if we take a pipe and run it outside into the garden, people can make wudu out there?
15:25It seemed like a very good idea.
15:28He said, it's a very good idea.
15:30I was happy with myself, mashallah.
15:32But we have to check if it's a perfect idea.
15:37Perfect idea when it's with Allah.
15:41What's left to Allah, to His judgments.
15:45He knows.
15:47He knows His servants.
15:50We're asking forgiveness from Allah not to do something,
16:00and the consequences are something we didn't consider.
16:05They have a word for CIA, KGB, Mossad, all the intelligence people.
16:14They do their operations, and there's a word in their circles called blowback.
16:20There's blowback.
16:21You make a plan.
16:23We're going to change this dictator.
16:25We're going to assassinate this one.
16:27We're going to do that.
16:28We're going to do that.
16:29They do what they do.
16:31It's famous now.
16:33They do their works, and then something happens they didn't expect.
16:39You got rid of one dictator, and a worse one comes.
16:41You do something here, something else worse happens.
16:47Therefore, we ask our Lord's judgment on everything.
16:54He knows.
16:56He knows.
16:58And especially for ourselves,
17:01someone insults us or says,
17:04forgive them for the sake of Allah,
17:06at least on that level.
17:08Oh, my Lord, I leave it to your,
17:11I forgive them for your sake.
17:15You're the judge on that.
17:17You're the judge on how it should go.
17:20Then you're innocent of the consequence.
17:24It's in Allah's hands what's going to happen.
17:27You know the story,
17:29Sayyidina Musa, alayhi salam,
17:31he was traveling to Mount Sinai,
17:34to Rizini.
17:35He passed through a town,
17:38I think we said this last time, never mind.
17:41When the beard becomes white,
17:42you don't remember what you said yesterday or not.
17:47He passed through an area where there was a tyrant,
17:50a zalim,
17:51a terrible tyrant,
17:53doing everything.
17:54I saw videos in Ukraine
17:57that are taking young men,
17:59by force throwing them into vans,
18:01taking them to the battlefront.
18:03One mother was screaming and crying,
18:06she grabbed onto the van,
18:07and she died from that also.
18:10Like that, a tyrant, zalim,
18:13making zulm,
18:15every kind of zulm.
18:18He passed through the land where that tyrant was,
18:21and he met a family,
18:22a father, a mother, and a son.
18:24He came to the son,
18:27the son said to him,
18:29Oh, Musa,
18:30Kalimullah,
18:31who speaks with Allah,
18:32are you going to Mount Sinai,
18:34to Rizini,
18:35to speak with Allah?
18:36Yes,
18:36inshallah.
18:37When you're there,
18:38can you ask something?
18:40And Sayyidina Musa thinks he's going to ask,
18:42throw that tyrant out,
18:44or ask him to take that tyrant away.
18:47Instead,
18:48he says,
18:48Oh,
18:49Musa,
18:50can you ask,
18:51how long we have to be patient with that tyrant?
18:53How long Allah gave him from life?
18:58Musa said,
18:59Okay.
18:59He was surprised at that person's tolerance.
19:04Okay.
19:05Then he met the mother.
19:08Same question.
19:09Oh, Musa,
19:10ask Allah,
19:11how long we have to be patient with that?
19:13How long is he going to live?
19:15And later on,
19:18he met the father.
19:18Same question.
19:19How long?
19:21Ask Allah,
19:22how long we have to be patient?
19:24Musa went to Turi Sinin.
19:28Musa,
19:30when he
19:31would enter the
19:33in a cab
19:38muqaddisi tuwa,
19:40khahna nalaik,
19:41in a cab biwadi muqaddisi tuwa,
19:43take off your shoes,
19:45you have entered the sacred valley.
19:47And then he
19:47encountered the
19:49burning bush,
19:50the fire.
19:50Allah would speak to him,
20:12oh, Musa.
20:13And Musa,
20:14when he would enter that divine presence,
20:16he would lose himself completely.
20:18not like us
20:20when
20:21we're sitting
20:22with the shaykh like that,
20:24he was
20:25saik,
20:27as if electrocuted,
20:30passed out
20:31from himself
20:32in Allah's presence.
20:34Until
20:35Allah finished
20:36downloading
20:37whatever he wanted to
20:38download
20:39in Musa's
20:39heart,
20:41sadaqallahul al-zim,
20:43Musa would come to again,
20:45come to himself,
20:45and he
20:46turned to leave,
20:47to go back.
20:49Oh, Musa,
20:50didn't anyone ask you
20:51to ask me anything?
20:53Oh,
20:54my lord,
20:55I forgot.
20:56Yes,
20:57one family
20:58was asking,
20:59there is a terrible
21:00tyrant
21:01there in
21:01their land,
21:03how long
21:03he's going to live?
21:05They have to,
21:06asking how long
21:06they have to be patient
21:07with that.
21:09Allah said,
21:10tell them I gave
21:11that tyrant
21:12100 years of life,
21:13long life,
21:15they have to
21:16carry it.
21:19Sayyidna Musa,
21:20peace be upon him,
21:21came back,
21:22he met the father,
21:23how long,
21:24oh,
21:24Musa,
21:25did our lord say?
21:27100 years.
21:29100 years,
21:30you have to be patient.
21:32The father,
21:32he said,
21:33la hallo wa la koat
21:34referring it to Allah.
21:38You're carrying
21:39everything over,
21:40our lord,
21:40carry us also.
21:41Your will
21:41is
21:42supreme.
21:44Carry us also.
21:46Dissolve us
21:47in your
21:47divine new will.
21:49We accept
21:50to be patient
21:51as much as you like.
21:53Then he
21:54met the mother,
21:56the wife,
21:57how long?
21:57100 years.
21:59Now,
21:59how long,
22:00la koat
22:00he la bin
22:01we have to
22:04be patient.
22:05Oh,
22:05our lord,
22:05make us
22:06patient.
22:07He met the son,
22:08how long?
22:09100 years,
22:10I'm sorry to say.
22:11La hallo wa la koat
22:12he la bin
22:13and I'll be
22:13in the sons.
22:14You have to be
22:15patient.
22:16As soon as the son
22:17said like that,
22:18one rider
22:19came on horseback,
22:21the king is dead,
22:23long live the new king,
22:24the king is dead,
22:25long live the king.
22:27Spreading the news
22:27for the countryside,
22:28that tyrant
22:28passed away.
22:33Sayyidna Musa,
22:33he went back
22:34to Mount Sinai,
22:36Turi Sinin,
22:39and
22:39he said to Allah
22:41subhanahu wa ta'ala,
22:42Oh my lord,
22:44oh Musa,
22:44what happened?
22:47There was not
22:48good tidings,
22:49that tyrant he went.
22:50Oh my lord,
22:52you sent me
22:52to tell them
22:53100 years.
22:55And then
22:55it passed away
22:56immediately.
22:57How are they
22:58going to listen
22:58to what I'm
22:59saying to them?
23:01Oh Musa,
23:02you brought
23:02the truth
23:03to them,
23:04but when
23:04they said
23:05when the father
23:10said like that,
23:10I took away
23:11one third
23:11from that tyrant's
23:12life.
23:13When the wife
23:14said,
23:14I took away
23:16another third.
23:17When the son
23:17said,
23:18leaving it
23:20to my will,
23:21I took the rest
23:22of it.
23:22I rescued
23:23them from
23:23that.
23:25Be happy.
23:27Be from
23:27the Shaqirin.
23:28We ask
