‘‘Qul 'Inna Şalātī Wa Nusukī Wa Maĥyāya Wa Mamātī Lillāh Rabbi Al-
`Ālamīna (162) Lā Sharīka Lahu, Wa Bidhalika 'Umirtu Wa 'Anā 'Awwalu Al-
Muslimīn’, ‘Say, "Indeed, my prayer, my rites of sacrifice, my living and my dying
are for Allah, Lord of the worlds (162) No partner has He. And this I have been
commanded, and I am the first [among you] of the Muslims.” (Qur’ān 06:162-163).
Sadaqa Llāhu l-‘Aẓīm. Allah ‫ ﷻ‬is saying in Qur’an on what we are doing, “My
praying, my worshiping, my life, my death is for Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Only one
God, no partner for Him.” This is an order for us mentioned in Qur’an Azimu sh-
Shan. Sayyidina Ibrahim ‘alayhi s-salam was saying this. Ibrahim ‘alayhi s-salam is
the second father of Bani Adam, human beings.

We are: “‫”ملَّةَ إِ ْب َرا ِهي َم‬,

ِ “Millati Ibrahim”, “The Way of Abraham.” (Qur’an
04:125) All of us are Millati Ibrahim, Ummat Muhammad salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-
sallam. In old times, in time of the Khalifah - now there is no Khalifah (Caliph), no
Khilafah (Caliphate) in Islam since a hundred years. Before, in the time of the
Ottomans, the Khalifah of RasuluLlah salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam were teaching
this. Asking, “Who are you?” “I am from Millati Ibrahim, Ummati Muhammad salla
Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam.” This teaches unity. It makes Muslims, Mu’min, believers
united together. This was power for Muslims, for Islam to be united. When you are
one, all together, you will have power. People cannot do anything to you.

 For this, they are teaching people to call for nationalism. Each one says, “I
am from this nation. I am from that nation.” And they divide people. With this, they
destroyed the Khilafah (Caliphate), no more Khilafah now. The Khilafah in cities of
the Ottomans, there is forty states now, forty different countries. Each one by itself.
They do this everywhere. They separate and separate. Then, there’s no power for
Muslims, no power for Islam. In the Khilafah country, during the time of Muslim
rulers there was justice and they were looking after all their people. Whether Muslim
or not Muslim, who lived in this country had every right. Nobody oppressed them.

Since a hundred years, you see these countries fighting all the time. No rest
for them, no any justice, no any mercy, no any happiness. Just all the time crisis,
wars and oppressing people. Because Allah ‫ ﷻ‬is punishing these people. Prophet
salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam was forbidding to call for nationalism. Now we see in
every place, especially Muslim countries - other countries of course also. But when
they are not Muslim, we are not responsible for them because there is no more sin
than being Kafir. But Muslims are still continuing on the way of racism and calling
for nationalism. They say, “I am from this race. I am from that race. I am better
than you. You are not from me. We are not happy with you.” This is everywhere.
They divided the Khilafah country into forty. But still in the same country, each
country has a hundred different races. Everybody is not happy with the other. They
are fighting. Some are shouting, some are not being together. They are divided and
not accepting this. This is our situation now.

There is no benefit from which race you are or from where you are. There is
no benefit for you. You are only living some years in this world, and after that you
will go. Your race will not be with you. You will not save yourself with your race.
When you leave this Dunya, when you die, you will be earth. So, when you go and
you are white, your earth will be gold? And if you are black, it will be iron? No. All
of us will be the same. There isn’t any difference. It will all be earth, all the same
kind. Nothing of more value, nothing better than the other. Only earth. If you are
white, if you are blond, if you are black, if you are dark, if you are light, if you are
long, if you are short, if you have big muscles, if you have a big stomach -
everything will be the same after your death! For this, many people think they are
something, they are higher than others if they have money, if they have power, if
they have land or something: this is the thinking of people who don’t have
cleverness. We are living in a time when we see many things happening. Those
claiming they were the most powerful ones were hanged. The most beautiful people
became ugly. Who claimed, “I am the most clever one. I am the most
knowledgeable” all in the end were finished, nobody is left.

 Non-believers ask many times wondering about their being in this world,
“What is the purpose for us, we are here.” And of course, many of them are non-
believers, not accepting anything. They are struggling. If they don’t find anything,
they won’t be happy their whole life. All the time, wondering, “What will happen?
How will I be? What will happen for me? For my life?” Because they only believe in
this life; they don’t believe in the other life. So even for this life, they are very
anxious and very unhappy. And they are not accepting. They are very proud. They
think they are the (most) clever people in the world. The are not accepting any
Naseeha (advice), not accepting anything to come say to them, “You must be a
believer to find the truth.”

For this, AlhamduliLlah we are believers and from Millat Sayyidina Ibrahim
‘alayhi s-salam. We are following what he said in this Ayah, in this verse. “My
praying, my worshiping, my life, my death, all and everything mine is for Allah
‘Azza wa-Jalla who has no partner to Him.” This is the order for us. AlhamduliLlah
this is for us a big favor, a big Ni’mah from Allah ‫ﷻ‬. We know why we are here,
what will happen, from where we are coming, where we are going; we know all of
this. Allah ‫ ﷻ‬let us know. He ‫ ﷻ‬told us in His ‫ ﷻ‬holy book Qur’an Azimu sh-Shan.

The worst thing is ignorance, Jahiliyyah. What does Jahiliyyah mean?

Jahiliyyah means not knowing anything. AlhamduliLlah we know, we are not from
Jahileen (ignorant ones). Jahil (ignorant) is the nonbeliever because they don’t know
anything and they don’t want to know. Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam fought
Jahiliyyah. He ‫ ﷺ‬was against Jahiliyyah. He ‫ ﷺ‬wants to spread knowledge, real
knowledge for all human beings. He ‫ ﷺ‬didn’t fight to get gold or money or
anything. He ‫ ﷺ‬was not in need of this. Even though he ‫ ﷺ‬didn’t have money or
gold or anything, but he wasn’t in need of this. They were offering Prophet salla
Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam saying, “Take as much as you want but don’t teach us.
Don’t take us out of Jahiliyyah. We will give you what you want from gold. We will
give you a mountain of gold but leave us in Jahiliyyah.” Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi
wa-sallam has an order from Allah ‫ ﷻ‬to give knowledge and give light to people. He
didn’t accept [their offer] of course. This is the difference between Jahiliyyah and
knowledge, light. They are only looking for material things, for things of no value.
All of this gold and all what you have and think is precious here has no any value in
the next life, in Akhirah. With this knowledge, darkness opened. It was so dark in
that time. The (most) darkest time was the time Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-
sallam came to. Every where, there wasn’t any knowledge, there wasn’t any justice.
All people were in darkness. But with the Nur of Islam, the light and civilization
came through Islam. He ‫ ﷺ‬gave us all precious things which will be with us forever.

As much as we are following him ‫ﷺ‬, following his ‫ ﷺ‬order, we take the precious
things, we get them insha’Allah.

So we must first be Muslim, help each other and not be divided from each
other. Allah ‫ ﷻ‬gave everyone some speciality so we must be happy with what others
have, with what we have. We can help each other and Allah ‫ ﷻ‬will be happy with us
and Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam will be happy with us. Insha’Allah we are
trying this but of course in that time very few people can be happy with each other,
and the whole world are against each other.

But AlhamduliLlah we are not hopeless because Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi
wa-sallam gave good tidings for Muslims. He ‫ ﷺ‬also gave knowledge of what will
happen. This good tiding is he ‫ ﷺ‬said that in the end of times when people will be
hopeless and Fitnah will become everywhere, Allah ‫ ﷻ‬will send one, Imam Mahdi
‘alayhi s-salam who is from Prophet salla Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam’s grandsons. He
will save and unite the whole world insha’Allah. There won’t be any problem in the
world. All will be solved. All will be finished. It is not through a normal man. He
will come with a miracle, with a thing that is not normal for our life. He will quickly
finish all this mess, all these problems, all this oppression, all these bad people will
be finished. When many things will happen, all Muslims who have Iman in their
hearts will hear him and be with him. Mawlana was saying that every prayer, you
must make Dua for Allah ‫ ﷻ‬to send him. Insha’Allah we will be with him. It looks
very much like the time of Sayyidina Al-Mahdi, Allahu ‘A’lam (Allah ‫ ﷻ‬knows). We
don’t know what Allah ‫ ﷻ‬wills, when or where the appearance of Sayyidina Al-
Mahdi will be but we are hoping insha’Allah to be with him insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
