BismillahirRahmanirRahim.
Meded. (Help Us.) No way for mankind to save itself here and hereafter without asking heavenly support, and heavenly support is coming from heavenly ones.And we are saying first: 'Audhu bi-llahi mina shaitani rajim', O our Lord, we are running to You from our most dangerous enemy Shaitan. Save us from Shaitan and his tricks, save us not to fall in his traps. Countless tricks for Shaitan, and he is putting countless traps for mankind everywhere, so that you must be open-eyed for saving yourself. If not, you may fall in his traps, and it is difficult to save yourself. You will need someone to save you from that trap. Most people are in traps- just caught, and someone must come to open that trap and to save them. Commonly people have been caught by Shaitan's traps; only Anbiya, the prophets, and Awliya, their inheritors, the Saints, and are free.

Once Shaitan came to the most Beloved Servant of Allah Almighty Sayidina Muhammad sws, when he was in a meeting with the Sahabas, his companions. Rasulullah asked him: 'Are you not knowing that it is forbidden for you to come to me, to where I am?' Allah Almighty is preventing Shaitan, he can't come to Prophets and also not to Awliya. Then Rasulullah asked Shaitan about Sayyidina Omar r.a.: 'How are you with Omar?' , and Shaitan said: 'When I am seeing that he is turning to come on me on the same way or street, I am turning back on another direction, not to come face to face with him.'

Sayyidina Omar was not a prophet, but a Sahaba, and all of the Sahabas had sainthood. To look to a prophet gives high honour to a servant. We have been honoured to be from the nation of Rasulullah and we were not with him, when he had been sent as a prophet. We believe according to the news that reached our ears, and we accept him as a prophet, without seeing him. But the Sahaba met him, they heard what he said and they saw him, therefore their rank is so high. To see and to meet someone and to accept him is one thing; to believe without seeing, only by hearing about that one is something else. To look and to believe is much more powerful. Therefore all the Sahaba are Awliya, and their ranks are so high. Even if a person just came in front of the Prophet and said to him: 'O Muhammad sws, I am witnessing that Allah Almighty is One and that you are His Prophet', this is more than saying it now 1oo.ooo times after the Prophet. Seeing him and saying: 'Ya Muhammad, I am believing what you bring to us about Your Lord's Existence and His Oneness and I am saying 'La ilaha ill-Allah', following you and believing in what you say. And I also believe that you have been sent by the Lord as a prophet. Without seeing the Lord of Heavens I believe in Him, and I am seeing you and I believe in you and that everything that you inform us of is true. I accept the Existence of Allah and His Oneness and Eternity.' Who was looking to the Prophet and saying this to him, Rasulullah is going to be witness for him in the Divine Presence, and he will say: 'O Allah, this servant declared Your Unity and Oneness in front of me and he said 'La ilaha ill-Allah', and also he declared that I am that one who brings to mankind the last message about the Existence and Oneness of the Lord of Heavens'. Without seeing the Prophet is another point.

The biggest Awliya are the Sahaba, and the top level is for them. Other people's level is under that level. Shaitan fears to come to Awliya, and it is forbidden for him to run after prophets also. He can't. And he fears the followers of prophets, the Saints, he fears they may destroy his long-time efforts against Islam, for what he was tiring himself.

We said Shaitan is everywhere and he is coming to everyone except the Awliya. He can't come closer to them, because they have been dressed heavenly lights, and those lights burn Shaitan, making him to escape. Therefore we must try to reach to Awliya for divine support. If not finding that one, you will always stay on earth or underground, finished.

Why is the Islamic world coming down now? Because the Muslims are misguided by some representatives of Shaitan. Shaitan prepared representatives for himself, and those people are trying to show the right path of Islam as a wrong path. They claim that they make a new way, open a new way for Islam. We are not accepting that. Islam is in its perfection, its perfect perfection. Nothing can be changed for Islam. They claim that they live in the 21st century and that Islam is not suitable for the new generation or for the 21st century. But they are liars.

All nations, humanity is in need of Islam, because perfection for mankind may only be with Islam, not with any other idea or way. And there are so many schools of thought and ideas, which people think on, making so many ways- all of them are false. So many philosophers or square-head people try to make a way for mankind- but it is impossible. They claim that they make a new way, but maybe they are just by themselves or maybe a group of people may follow them; but they can't reach to make their idea a world-wide idea which people may be interested in and which they may follow. Only Islam is in its perfection, and it may carry billions of people after it.

Beyond Islam you can't find anything to make people's hearts in contentment, no.

You may say something, and someone is saying: 'I may say what he is saying, or I may say something else.' Similar or not- but you are going to be the first one to leave your own way. The philosophers in all the schools of philosophy themselves changed through their life so many times their way. They may say something in the morning and in the evening they may say the opposite, saying: 'It was not true.' Nighttime they may say something, and when the sun is shining, they may say something else again: 'O, what I said night time, it is useless.' In summer thinking something and putting some ideas, when winter comes, saying: 'What I said in summer is all useless.' Everything that is man-made you can't trust on it, mind productions are nothing. But people insist by satanic advice and they say: 'We must do this or that to correct the life of mankind', or they are claiming that they may change the mentality of people from one way to another way. And it is so difficult to change people's mentality and minds, because when you say this, someone else is saying: 'No, why should I follow that one? I may think something also. That is his mentality and his mind production, but I have a mind and mentality also, so I may do as he did. That one can't be; maybe no support for his ideas and he is going to vanish and finish. I have the power for this country in my hands. Therefore I may say and order, encourage people or force them to do as I am doing or as I am saying.' That is the only chance for those who do something without heavenly support through their mentalities and mind productions, the only chance for those who keep power in their hands. Therefore there are so many -isms, like Socialism, Communism, Capitalism, Kemalism, Liberalism, Feminism, Hayvanism. So many, because they have power. Through their power they force people to follow them. Even people hate those ideas, but they do by force, because they are slaves.

And that is a punishment from the Lord of Heavens for people, because they refused to be servants of the Lord Almighty Allah, so Allah makes them slaves for those devils. That is a punishment from the Lord of Heavens, who is putting on them some tyrants. Why tyrants are coming? Like the German tyrant Hitler, the Italian tyrant Mussolini, the Russian tyrants Trotsky, Stalin and Lenin? And other tyrants in Turkey, in Iraq, in Egypt, in Hijaz, in Yemen- everywhere Allah Almighty is sending on people tyrants. It is a punishment from Him, because people refused to be servants of the Lord, asking freedom, freedom, freedom. And that means freedom from religious commands or heavenly commands. They are asking to save themselves from all heavenly commands.

One hundred years ago in Turkey people brought down Sultan Abdul Hamid and they were saying: 'Freedom, hurriyet', because the Sultan was keeping the holy law of Allah, the Shariat, and people were asking to save themselves from being servants of Allah. The Shariat, the heavenly law, is asking people to be servants for the Lord. When people refused it and took it away to save themselves, Allah Almighty sent on them tyrants as a punishment. It is not a blessing. They were asking freedom and Allah gave it to them, but making on them a tyrant, who is also free to deal with people with every worst dealing. No justice, no mercy, no any good thing comes from tyrants to people, they are dealing with people in a worst way. They are all oppressors, sadists, dishonoured and dishonest people. Allah is sending them on people.

Now whole Dunya in our days is living in fear, and most people, 99% of the people, is living without any hope- they lost their hope. When a person looses hope, it means, he is like dead, his book is closed. Who is hopeless for tomorrow, he is finished. And after hopelessness fear is surrounding them from outside and rushing on their heart, so that they are going to be in the worst condition, and their life is going to be the life of Hell. If a person looses hope, it means he died and every cursing is on him.

To be hopeless is forbidden in Islam, and we say: 'Alhamdulillah- today is better than yesterday, tomorrow is better than today.' This hope may only be given through the Awliya, through their heavenly powers, and they may give to those, who believe in them and who come together around them. Like in the time of the Prophet; when the Sahabas were alone, they were fearing and hopeless, but when they were with the Prophet, they were full of hope, power and contentment.

And every time you may find his inheritors in the world now. All people are in need only the declaration of such a person, and him to reach to people with his spiritual power, to take away from them the darkness of their hopeless thinking about what is coming on them tomorrow.

Who is reaching to the Rijalullah, to the Prophet and his inheritors, the Saints, who are all friends of Allah Almighty, may say: 'BismillahirRahmanirRahim' and sleep. No troubles with them, no. They may say: 'O my Lord, my soul is in Your Hands. By Your command it may be taken when I am sleeping. If You are asking to take my soul, keep it through the lights of Paradise. If You are asking to send my soul back to my body, keep me with You, not to be with Shaitan and his followers.'

This is a strange association, that may go in different directions. But as a summary it is signing what people are in need of and it is telling also about people's spiritual difficulties, how they should be saved and how must be the saviour of mankind. May Allah forgive us and give you what you are in need of from Him and His Prophet. May Allah bless you.
