Dunyā is an opportunity to take the jewels that the soul desires. Some people take a little and some a lot and some pass it up to take nothing of lasting value. Those who don’t take are in darkness and it shows on their faces.
Taming the Wild
May27 2005 English 32min
The fruit of wild trees is not edible. For a tree to bear good fruit, it must be grafted. There is wildness in common people. Changing it makes them well placed for divine service. The imprisoned soul yearns for the heavens. Creation serves Man, but who does he serve? His material being. When his coffin is nailed shut and placed in a hole, his final position will be realized: a skeleton, then dust. O Man, change your wildness into good manners. It brings familiarity. Darkness leaves the face. The Lord ﷻ is happy. His ﷻ servant gains here, and hereafter.
Never Before
Mar27 2003 English 11min
In a heated sohbat Mawlana praises the Americans for their actions against Saddam Hussein in Iraq and lambasts the press and the European and Muslim nations that are wrongly criticizing them and, by doing so, defending a tyrant. He asks - has there ever been an invading nation that gave food and aid to the ones it invaded? The answer is - Never before.
Our Real History
Mar23 2003 English 33min
There can be no knowledge which is not based on a firm Quranic foundation, on knowledge of our real history, the history of the Prophets and their people since the time of Adam (as). The history taught today is a lie meant to profit the liars and to cheat the people.
Sometimes War Is Needed
Mar17 2003 English 29min
Mawlānā, speaking about war in Iraq, explains why sometimes war is needed. He says that those demonstrating against war are only trying to preserve themselves and their way of life. They do not care what is best for the world. But Allāh ﷻ is with those who fight for the benefit of Mankind.
The Darkness of Materialism
Mar15 2003 English 29min
The first step to perfection is recognizing satan, the ‘it’ – the barking dog of the universe, arguing with Allāh ﷻ. Then leave the modern scholars and scientists who reject the light of spiritual knowledge and insist on the darkness of material knowledge only.
Satanic Training
Mar13 2003 English 29min
Mawlānā warns of a terrible war that will come to teach people the value of Allāh’s gifts. People are spoiled, following the tricks of satan and not being satisfied with anything. After this war they will be ready to kiss a crumb of bread.
Our Souls Are Crying
Mar12 2003 English 29min
The ego is trying to kill the soul, to crush it under the burden of material pleasures. The soul is crying and asking for eternal pleasures. But no one knows that they were created to please Allah and instead they are trying to please their egos and shaytan.
Divine Justice
Mar11 2003 English 31min
Now everyone is following their dragons, their egos. There is no justice, no possibility of peace. Islām is in the hands of devils. But real Divine Justice was in the time of Sayyidunā ‘Umar when even the lions ate grass peacefully with the deer.
Sleeping Mankind Must Awaken
Mar10 2003 English 40min
Sleep is heedlessness towards one’s true identity, a modern day curse. Divine grants cannot be given to a sleeping man. Satan veils him, so he doesn’t think about his end. Youngsters too with their drug culture are finished. All are in a dream. The end belongs to our spirituality and sleeping mankind must awaken.
Men and Women
Mar08 2003 English 27min
The only sphere in which men and women are equal is in their servanthood to Allāh ﷻ. The rest is a satanic teaching whose real purpose is to dishonour women. The spread and wide acceptance of homosexuality also is wrong and an indication of the coming of the last days. We can do nothing about this except voice our disagreement.
Ilā Ḥīn (2:36)
Mar06 2003 English 42min
Allāh ﷻ says everything was created – ilā ḥīn (2:36) – for a period; it has a beginning and an end. The people of today, all of them Nimrods, tyrants, think they are in charge and that they and their lifestyle should never change or end. For this they fight, oppress, and kill. They do not listen and they do not think.
Love Streams
Feb19 2003 English 46min
The one gift that distinguishes mankind from animals is the gift of Love. It is our duty to return this gift to the One ﷻ who gave it in the first place.

Listen Don’t Ask
Apr16 2002 English 18min

India – Pakistan
Feb28 2002 English 17min
Partition was a trick pulled on the Muslims by the West after the destruction of the Caliphate. Now they are leaving their countries in great numbers looking for work although India is the richest land in Asia. Better for them to eat dry bread than be servants of the Western people.
