Our biggest mistake is to think that Mawlana is not here with us. All that those who represent him want is to remind us and to bring us back safely to him. Their slogan is ‘We Care for You”. By being with Mawlana everyone has the chance to be with Rasulullah (sas). Follow the ones who know.

Aug07 2015 Turkish 26min
Musa (as) received the Torah all at once. It was too heavy for the Bani Israil and they left what they couldn’t follow. The Quran was given little by little and is protected from change until the Last Day. Only on the Farewell Hajj did Allah complete His Favour. Don’t run away from the favour of Allah.

Don’t Be a Loser
Jul28 2015 Turkish 10min
Suratu l-Asr is the shortest surat but a summary of all good advice. All people are losers except those who believe, do good, and counsel each other to follow the right way and to have patience. Most people are losers because they follow their egos. All winning lies in the eternal life.
