Get a Check-up for Your Soul from an Authority Who Can Be Your Mirror (Not from Psychiatrists)

Astaghfirullah!...
Tubtu wa rajatu ila-llah…
Tubna wa rajana ila-llah!…
Destur, ya Sultanu-l Awliya
Meded, Meded, ya Rijalallah, a´inuna bi madadikum!

As-salamu alaikum!... O our Lord, put Your weak servants under Your Divinely Protection! Therefore - you must try to say as much as possible more: "As-salamu alaikum, As-salamu alaikum, As-salamu alaikum!…"

As-Salam, peace - when you are saying (it) too much, (it is) bringing peace to you and (to) everything around yourself and also spreading that blessings and mercy through East and West. But now people are not using too much to say: "As-salamu alaikum". Say (it), as much as possible!

And we are saying: As-salamu alaikum! As salamu alaikum, ya ´ibadallahi salihin… Allah Allah…Allah Allah…

And we are asking Divinely Support; and Divinely Support (is) never coming to people directly. That is like a - as we are saying it for understanding - blessing is coming like Niagara Falls. You can't reach to take from that, but if it is going through pipes, (you) may drink (from it), (you) may use it. Therefore, Awliya, whole Alwiyas, Awliyas means, Waliyullah that means: Friend of Allah, or (someone) who is going to be friendly to Allah. Try to be friendly to Allah! But people (are) running to be friends of Shaytan, because it is (from the) Last Days' signs that people should run to be friends of Shaytan and very few people (are) running to be Friends of Allah Almighty.

And you can't be friend of Allah Almighty, till you are going to be friend to His most beloved servant Sayyidina Muhammad - sallaLlahu ´alayhi wa sallam! And you can't be reaching to that point- to be friend of Rasulullah - sallaLlahu ´alayhi wa sallam - till you are going to be friendly to (the) friends of Rasulullah - sallaLlahu ´alayhi wa sallam. If you are not reaching (the) friends of Rasulullah - sallLlahu ´alayhi wa sallam, you can't reach to be friend of Allah Almighty!

A´udhu bi-llahi mina shaytani rajim! O our Lord, please give Your Protection on Your weak servants! We are saying: "We are weak servants, please make Your Divinely Protection on ourselves, not to be friends of Shaytan!" Friends of Shaytan (are) going to be in Hells, (and it is) beginning here, they are burning! They are burning from inside of themselves or (from) outside (they are) burning, but they are insisting to be, yet to be, friends of Shaytan!

Say: "A´udhu bi-llahi mina shaytani rajim, o our Lord, we are running to You, not to be friends to Shaytan!" Say! In such a meaning say: A´udhu bi-llahi mina shaytani rajim!…

People (are) coming to me, saying: "O Sheikh, I am ill, but I am going to Doctors (and) they are sending me to tahlil, analysis, (saying): 'Go to that one to make (a) check-up for yourself and bring that (result) to me to look', and I am going (to a) different analysts, (the) analyst (is) saying: 'Oh, you are… nothing with you, you are okay!' "But" - he is insisting - "I am (still) feeling that I am not healthy!"

Yes… but yet there are not thinking that that is something (which is) not belonging to their material being, no, (it is something) from inside! Yet they are not coming to say, to accept that we have another being through ourselves that that is our souls. They (are) never going to ask, to make a check-up for their souls. (They are) running to make check-up (for) every organ through themselves, but they (are) never going to look, to make a check-up for their souls, no, because people (are) becoming such materialists. They are thinking (that they are) only material beings. Material beings never making a thing to move by itself, no.

(A) car is a car, but you must put in its box a kind of water and that water (is) changing in(to) another… position and moving… making car to move. They are always looking: "What is the matter? Our car can't walk, (but) we are looking (that) everything (is) okay." "Look, if it has fuel"… "What is fuel? Our car is okay, for what fuel?" "Ya Hu, without fuel your car can't move!"…

People (are) running to Doctors. (The) doctor (is) saying: "You are 100% okay!" "O Doctor, if 100 % I am okay, why I am coming to you? I am feeling something in myself that (is) making me not to be rest; (there is) disturbing me something from inside. What is that?" "You must go to Haci X… there is a person that he may understand such a matters…what is their name?… Their name (is) psychiatrists… And so many psychiatrists (are) coming to Sheikh, saying: "O Sheikh, I am feeling no good!" "What you are doing?" I am asking. "Psychiatry." "Ahhh… psychiatry… and you are coming to me for (a) treatment, to treat you?"… I am saying first: "Jump!" If (he is) jumping, I am saying: "You are alright, okay, go away, finished!" "(But) I am coming for (a) check-up!" "That is my check-up! If you are jumping, (it) means, (that) you are okay, nothing (wrong) with you!… (But) if (it is) not enough (for you), (we make) another check-up: Run from up to that side!" "For what?" "There is a cat running in front of you, run and catch it!"… I am psychiatrists' doctor! All psychiatrists also they are strange…antika… All psychiatrists, their minds out of their minds, two feet… "I am trying you, if you are okay or not." "I can't be!" "You can't be? (Then) you must try to run every day 100 meters to catch a cat. Catch and bring (it) to me!" "How…?" "I am doctor of psychiatrists, you don’t know! Come, what I am saying to you, it is okay!"

(For) everything: Check-up! But for psychiatrists - they are unhappy to be checked up! You are making check-up for people and (you are) saying: "Nothing (wrong) with you", but I am looking that you also (are) falling into a deep well, (and) you can't be able to take yourself out. That is my check-up to you!

And we are in need (for someone) who (is) making (a) check-up for our unknown being, souls! The authority for that just (has been) granted to Prophets. Then, Prophets, from Prophets that (have been) granted to make a check-up, (it is) granted- what they have been permitted (to do)- (to those who are) through Prophets line people. They may do this, not (just) anyone (who is) saying: "I can do!" You cant do! But people are running non-sensely to make a check-up, check-up… for themselves and it is impossible. Really we are in need a check-up for our souls and who can do that check-up for our souls? Those whom they are authorized with heavenly Authority, authorised by heavenly Authority! They can do only this, not (just anyone who is) going (to a) school (and who is) reading, reading, reading… They can't understand anything!

And they are so very rare now, (these authorized people), because people are running to make their check-up with psychiatrists and their level (is) on (the) same level (with them) and (so) they can't take any benefit. Finished, finished! Mankind just finished, because they are in ruins innerly. In ruins! They must rebuild their personalities once again! First they must try to recognize their real identity. Who are you? First, for rebuilding himself through this life, to recognize himself: Who are you? Someone must teach him: Who are you? Because by yourself you can't know, who are you. You can see everything, except yourself; your eyes (are) looking and seeing everything, except yourself. What you are in need? You need a mirror!

(You are looking into the mirror), (but) you say that: "I am this one (in the mirror)?" (Then) you must bring two witnesses (to confirm to you) that through that mirror you are that one! By himself he can't recognize himself also in (a) mirror! He may think: "That is another one! I am not this one, because I am not looking myself, putting myself second to that and to see that this and this (are) same no. Perhaps that mirror it is a strange instrument, showing shadows, showing something in it." But if no one in that area, you can't say that: 'This is, I am that one.' You need two witnesses (to tell you) that: "This you are, you are looking. That is mirror, showing to you."

Therefore, (for a) man who is asking: Who are you? (there) must be a person like (a) mirror (for him), to be able to show (to him): "You are this one!" When he is accepting, what he is saying, then that person (is) just permitted to build, to rebuild your existence, to manifest yourself again, as before. Because you are in ruins, destroyed; your real being (is) destroyed, therefore you are in need a rebuilding, and rebuilding (is) only (for) those people, who have been granted heavenly Lights and (who are) authorized through Heavens- not from earth, no! (Authorization) from earth (it means:) on our level…(the) level of animals…zoo level…We are on zoo level…(They are) putting some examples in(to the) zoo-garden, but (they are) not putting one man inside also that we are on same level!… You went zoo-garden?… You have been in zoo-garden?… I went also, but I was escaping, not to put me also in another place… (because they are saying) that: "This one also (is) on that level, (he is an) animal!"…

Our level (is the) first level, (that) of animals. Only (that) we have been granted (the ability) for speaking, other animals are not speaking. Same qualities that they have, we have same also, only they are running on four legs, we are running on two legs… But we must get up for rebuilding our real personality!

If you are not recognizing yourself, you can't be able to understand anything! (then you are) coming (here as a) 'hayvan', going (as a) 'hayvan', coming as (an) animal, and going as an animal… And this life that people (are) living now, it is not (on the) 2nd level of real mankind. Because first level (people), their characteristic (is) on… same character, all of them! If they are getting on (the) 2nd level, they can't touch like this…(they) can't give (troubly to anyone)… (they) can't harm anyone!

Once my Grandsheikh showed me in Mecca Mukarrama Baitu-llah sharafaha-llah: "Look, Nazim Effendi, up!" I am looking one, first level people: they are making Tawwaf, but they are quarrelling and making everything, giving harm (to) people, pushing them, pulling them… but the 2nd one, (there) I am looking and seeing a group of people, (that) they are like butterflies… no sound… no trouble…no harming…! (On the) first level, (the) level of animals; they are giving to each other harm, biting, hitting, everything they are doing…

Now look and say truth! What is the level of living people, whom they are claming that: "We reached to top of civilization"? They are so big liars, because that is Shaytan's teaching to them, to say: "Now you are on top level of civilization!" For what? "Because you have so many kinds of weapons and high technology you have, therefore you reached (the) top of civilization." And I am saying: "Yet you are on (the) same level (with animals)! Technology (is) never taking you (up to be) on (the) second level. Only spirituality can take you (up) and your spirituality (is) under (such) heavy pressure (that) you can't be able to leave it, to reach to that point." And people are trying to kill, to harm people, to destroy - what is that? That is the level of mankind? I am sorry to say (that) it is not (the) level of real… human beings level. And I am sorry to say that even animals level they are not accepting (these people on) their level and (so they are) kicking them down! Kicking them down!

That is the position, general view of our world in our days that it is last days, and we are reaching to Yaum al-Qiyyama…

O people, come and listen and ask truth! To ask truth, it is your most important characteristic (as human beings). You must ask truth and you must try to learn (the) truth about your life (so) that you should be up (on the 2nd level), never harming (anyone). Therefore - (the) Prophet - sallaLlahu ´alayhi wa sallam - (was) saying: "A surrendered people"- that people are running away from Islam, the name of Islam; they are hating (it) and (they are) running away (from it), but really Islam what (it is) saying? (it is saying): "A real Muslim (is someone) who (is) never harming people, (neither) by his tongue, (nor) by his hand, (or) by his power." They are not real Muslims, now (these) people, Muslims! You are looking and seeing what (is) happening! And people (are) thinking that Islam (is) ordering to kill people without any… with reason or without reason! (They are) destroying every day and they are saying: "In the name of Islam!" A´udhu bi-llah! Allah takes them away! Takes them away…

Don’t be with them! Don’t say that they are doing good! That is not Islam and they are not Muslims! Only by name; their names may be written Muslims, but they are so far - as far (as the) earth (is far) from Heavens, they are far away from Islam!

May Allah forgive us and bless you!

For the honour of the most honoured one in His Divine Presence SayyidinaMuhammad - sallaLlahu ´alayhi wa sallam,

Fatiha.
