The Meaning of the Hadith: "Purify the Paths of the Holy Quran"

Sultan al-Awliya

Mawlana Shaykh Nazim

9 January 2010 Lefke, Cyprus

(Mawlana Shaykh stands.)

Allahu akbar, Allahu akbar, Allahu akbar la ilaaha illa-Llah, Allahu akbar, Allahu akbar wa lillahi’l-hamd!

Alfu salaat alfu salaam alayka ya Sayyidil awwaleen wal akhireen. ameen, ishfa lana ya Sayyidil awwalieen wal akhireen, madad.

(Mawlana Shaykh sits.)

As-Salaamu `alaykum, O Mankind from east to west, from north to south! Ask for salamah, safety, each one, another each one, make it so frequently, always say As-Salaamu `alaykum. That is one of the biggest favors of our Lord, Allah Almighty. Forgive us yaa Rabbana, yaa Rabbana, bless us, grant us from endless Mercy Oceans. Forgive us and bless ourselves and protect our physical beings not to fall into dangerous positions through this life and the next one. And we are saying a`oodhu billahi min ash-Shaytaani ‘r-rajeem. That means beware of Shaytan because Shaytan is putting everywhere a trap and if you are not following the ways of heavens, you can be caught by anyone of the traps, they may catch you.

O People! This is a humble meeting, and it is a mercy from the Lord of Heavens to give us something from holy knowledge. Now knowledge is of so many kinds, countless books, countless knowledge they are writing, but all of them belong to this life. Never getting any interest through such lessons or books, no any interest for people. They are leading whole nations, for what? Towards some aspects, temporary. They are trying to give such things, yes, just it has been put from east to west, from north to south, through continents, through oceans, so many sources of knowledge but all of them are only for this temporary life.

And Shaytan is always bring to people and saying, "Look what I am bringing to you. Come and take it." If anyone is saying, "What do you want for this selling?" Shaytan is saying, "No, it is free. I am not asking for anything. Only that you must look and you must carry and you must buy from materials." And people, SubhaanAllahi ‘l-`Aliyyi ‘l-`Azheem, endless glory for our Lord, Allah Almighty. (Mawlana stands and sits.) Subhaan sensin.

They are making, my masters to stand up when we are saying our Lord’s holy name. For what? They are saying that to make Wahhabi and Salafi `ulamas to be happy that, "Ohhh, Shaykh is standing up when he is saying Allah!" (Mawlana stands.) Allahu akbar! Saying, "O Shaykh, now coming a bit clever one and they are understanding what we are saying, and Shaykh asking to save himself from shirk; without "sheen" it is "sirk" (Turkish for "circus")! If you are on shirk, you are going to be on circus? (Laughter) They are looking to me. I am looking, yes, one of this saying to me, now Shaykh is speaking true. We must listen to him, but what he said about shirk? I don’t know what he means when he is saying, "shirk". And from shirk people carrying beasts and dirty animals. That means he is not respecting our understandings and our beliefs. Yes. Another thing that you are saying for Ahlu ‘s-Sunnah wa’l Jama`ah, "shirk".

When you are putting us into shirk, we are putting you into circus. Ok Shaykh Hisham? Sleeping? Wahhabi, Salafi `ulamas, all of them going to be in circus! Therefore, we stand up when we are saying Allah! (Mawlana stands.) I am an old one, if I can carry, I was standing up for our whole meeting, but I am such an old one, I can’t stand up. And it is more than waajib, it is fard, everytime that you are asking to say Allah, you must clean your tongues because the Seal of Prophets (s) was saying Taahiru turuqu 'l-Qur’an, yes? Are you `Arabiyy or Turkish? And with which ones that Prophet (s) saying this hadith? What does it mean?

Taahiru turuqu 'l-Qur’an - that means make the ways of Holy Qur’an that you are reciting, clean as much as possible, make your mouth clean because you are saying holy name and holy words, holy verses, holy surahs means Holy Qur’an you must clean. How are we cleaning? Yes you know that when we are eating pulau, rice with meat, we are so shattered? Ones to eat big trays of kafta or to eat and you are saying we are cleaning, but sometimes you are only making such a thing (napkin) with your mouth. Prophet (s) is not saying clean your mouth when you are eating, lahmu shahm, oh my shaykh you are so...

Who is this one (uses eyeglasses) “Oh Shaykh Hisham Effendi. He is learning also to eat lahmu shahm (meat with fat) but my teeth are dentures and sometimes I can’t eat. Why not knowing? All of you educated. I don’t know French or English. I can’t, therefore, I am taking this and only swallowing and people thinking masha’Allah, Shaykh so quickly eating, going to finish our tray, don’t worry, never-ending! And don’t think that when Prophet (s) saying you may clean your mouth, it means with water or soap. Salafi people are saying, "We tried that detergent, it is so better for cleaning." And some of them use napkin and finished. Don’t think that when Prophet (s) was saying Tahir ul-turkal Qur’an, he was asking to clean your mouth with soap or detergent! (laughter) Prophet (s) means to clean your mouth with dhikr or holy names of your Lord Almighty!

Don’t use cigarettes, it is haraam! Why not saying? Making smoking mouth of that person like WC for Shaytan and this argeela, or also hookah (water pipe), makes your mouth also dirty! It is haraam, don’t use it! At least making the ways of Holy Qur’an to be in a bad smelling. That is a holy command, you must be clean and you must clean your mouth with which thing? "We are using, “O shaykh, your Arabic is very strange." Yes my Arabic is heavenly! What cleans the way of Holy Qur’an, you must know. Say to me! Making the ways of Holy Qur’an dhikrullah! Wa ladhikru al-lahi akbar! How you are saying when people making dhikr, "You are doing bida`, you are making shirk, you are on wrong way?"

From which giving authority of such a fatwa? Salafi ``ulamas, sometimes you must use a little bit your mind for understanding. I am not from Arabian people. I am sorry for this, that my descendants coming from another tribe of Adam’s descendants , but you must be so happy that Allah Almighty honored you to be from the nation of the Prophet’s tribe, Sayyidina Muhammad (s). (Mawlana stands and sits)

Keep yourselves. For what means the way of Holy Qur’an? If you are not cleaning according to a real hadith coming to ourselves, that when a person asking to recite Holy Qur’an, coming an angel here, (mouth) to take it to heavens. But sometimes they are getting disturbed from bad smelling of that person and they are escaping!

And when angels escaping, coming quickly Shaytanic ones then cursing coming on them! When cursing coming on a person, he is going to be maheen (despicable), lowest level that going to be equal to the level of beasts, level of animals; is it a hadith or not? What saying Salafi `ulamas for this hadith or it is something invented? What are you saying? Salafi `ulamas, you are looking every time through Haram Makkah al-Mukarramah or Haram Madinatu 'l-Munawwarah that coming people from government armies, people dressing just dressing of western kafir peoples dressings. Why are you not saying that is haraam? You don’t know this hadith? Or is it an imitated hadith? Why are you putting caps, how? How can you enter Haramayn Shareefayn your soldiers or your big rank people, putting on their heads zayi 'l-kuffaar `alam al-kuffaar that 1400 years `ulamas saying who dressing in the dressing of kuffar and mushriks going to be from them; why you are not saying?

Look in Hijaaz, they are never putting on their heads, sign of kufr. Whom they are keeping Shari`atullah, but some `ulamas from Arabs also, they are asking the dressing of western soldiers, western armies. I was happy with Sultan Qaboos (bin Said al-Said of Oman), that he was dressing in turban and zayi 'l-Islam, but finally I am looking and seeing that he is putting on his head a cap that belongs to the armies of non-Muslims and I was so sorry to see such a good amir or sultan at the end, they are showing his zayi 'l-kuffaar, dressing, as a dress of western army general. Shari`atullah never accepting. Khalifatu ‘l-muslimeen, it is not for him; may hear, may listen, I am saying only true ones, I am not taking any care if they are (not preferring this), still) we must say.

Therefore, I am shouting to Salafi `ulamas, why you are not saying? Why you are not making fw`az or your armies in holy land, Hijaaz. And why `ulamas of holy lands are not saying to their kings, "O our maliks, why you are using that, it is zayi 'l-kuffaar. It is not an honor for you to put a cap of western army’s captains." Allah Almighty or Prophet (s) or any real Muslims are going to be happy with you. You are breaking the hearts of Muslims by putting caps of kafirs, haashaa! Why you are not saying? You are only coming and saying when we are making a circle of dhikr and saying bida`, bida`, bida`. From where bringing that bida`? And you are saying it is not permitted. How it can be?

All of you should be punished. You must be punished before you are going from this life, you are going to be punished!! I am only a weak servant, but our grandshaykh and awliyas are sending to my heart and I am speaking on it, nothing else. If you are hearing, you should be happy. Not hearing, you should be regretting, yes. But just we are living in a time that people are in ikhtilaaf, differences, some of them are saying, "We have power to keep everything under our control," and weak ones saying, "If you are making this, we can’t come to you in opposite way to say you are wrong, (or to say) you must not do this or that.” You must follow Shari`atullah or Shari`atur-Rasool (s)! (Mawlana stands.) Stand up for the honor of Rasool (s) in spite of Salafi ``ulamas! Yes, that is important.

O People! We must learn, we must learn, we must try to learn. We must try to be real Muslims, real followers of prophets. If prophets passed away, we must follow their inheritors’ ways, whom they are keeping Shari`atullah, holy ways just mentioned through Holy Qur’an and through holy ahadith of the Seal of Prophets (s) Don’t play. Don’t think these words are as a joking, no it is a reality. And you should be punished if you are not repenting and saying, tawbah, yaa Rabbee!

Everything that ala’mal kufr, everything that unbelievers are doing, it is forbidden for us to do. You can’t do, Muslims can’t do as western people or unbelievers ways, or non Muslims ways to follow them in any way. Keep your honor! We have been honored to be Muslims. Why you are not saying O Wahhabi peoples and you are quarrelling with Muslims and saying who making dhikr are going to be mushriks. May Allah forgive us.

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, `Azeez Allah

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Kareem Allah

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, SubhaanAllah, SubhaanAllah, SubhaanAllah

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Kareem Allah

O People! Come to the ways of awliyas to be in safety here and Hereafter. O People! Come and listen, come and accept truth, or you are going to be repenting last moment and it is going to be useless.

Yaa Rasoolullah! Help us and give your intercession for your weak ummah, weak servants of the Lord of Heavens, for the honor of the most honored one, to be with him and to follow the ways of awliyas, ameen!

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, `Azeez Allah

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah

Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah

Dome, dome, dome, dome

Dome, dome, dome, dome

Dome, dome, dome, dome

Dome, dome, dome, dome

Dome, dome, dome, dome

Dome, dome, dome, dome

Dome, dome, dome, dome

Dome, dome, dome, dome

Fatihah! Ameen.

As-Salaamu `alaykum our listeners. I am a weak one, I know nothing but what they are sending me. They are making me to address mu’mins and Muslims, and they should be under the flag of Rasoolullah.

Fatihah.
