Refuting “There Is No God”
Sultan al-Awliya
Mawlana Shaykh Nazim al-Haqqani
2 February 2010 Lefke, Cyprus
(Mawlana Shaykh stands.) Dastoor yaa Sayyidee. Allahu akbar, Allahu akbar, Allahu akbar, laa ilaaha illa-Llah. Allahu akbar, Allahu akbar wa lillahi ‘l-hamd. Sall-Allahu `alayhi wa-sallam, Habeeb. As-salaamu `alaykum! Madad, yaa Sultanu ‘l-Awliyaa. O our master, Master of this world. We are asking forgiveness first that you, our master, ask forgiveness on behalf of all of us, from the Seal of Prophets, sall-Allahu `alayhi was-sallam. We know nothing, only what you, Sultanu ‘l-Awliya, belongs to this world. How many Sultanu ‘l-Awliya? Countless, because Allah Almighty is creating everything on the most perfect position. Everything must be on perfection, even where an ant is must be known by the master of this world, the qutb.
As-salaamu `alaykum, our listeners! Don’t be like me, heedless ones. You must make it a little up. When you are going a little bit up, what we may need is coming more clear from heavens. Heavenly appearance is coming according to our purification. All good ones from east to west, are holy, happy people mashaa-Allah. Marhaban, marhaban! O good ones! Try to be from good ones and it is a pity not to be from good ones. Tooba, good tidings for those who are from good ones, and (all of you) try to be from good ones!
As-salaamu `alaykum! Give your attention for a short time. Our masters are not making a long association, because people are mostly occupied through their egoistic personality. ‘Egoistic’ means most people are on a bad or level. People now are mostly on a dirty level. If on a dirty level, what are they bringing there for an example from this life when they are going to be on Yawm al-’Ard (the Day of Presenting [deeds])? Before our time, village people were working and planting so many things from fruits and vegetables, barley and wheat, and our old custom through the years was to have a fair every month. Those people were bringing to the fair what they were preparing for the citizens coming, looking and buying. They were so careful to bring the best ones (produce) for selling there at the fair, and not bringing what is not best; they kept that for their children and family to eat.
O Salafi `ulamas! What is the name of that plain after nufkh as-soor (blowing of the Trumpet), the Last Day when people are coming to the big plain, ardu 'l-mahshar (the Gathering Plain). Everyone is coming and seeing what they brought, because the Lord of Heavens is ordering the angels, “See what My servants have brought today for this plain!” So many people are going to be ashamed when they are putting their materials there because they are not bringing only the best. And Yawm al-`Ard, saying, “All people come for showing, for looking, for being ashamed, or to be proud of what you brought.”
O People, You must believe!! Don’t be drunk ones, don’t be like no-mind ones, don’t be like animals that don’t understand anything. You must think, and prepare what you are bringing to the Day of the Fair. Try to bring to the Day of Resurrection the good things that you prepared. Believe in Allah Almighty, He created you! Don’t follow shaytanic ideas that are saying, “no God.” If no god, Who is bringing this Creation from nothing, from Unseen centers? Who may bring and put in existence? If no one is bringing, is it coming by itself? That is (for) no-mind people and I am sorry to say that if their civilization is making them deny the Creator (then) people have reached the last level of civilization. If civilization is saying to you, “No god,” or if civilization is saying to you, “No Manufacturer,” that is the deepest point of ignorance. How they can say?
People have said for thousands of years, “We are servants of God,” and now you are saying, “No god.” That is your civilization? And now, you are not putting holy books through schools and universities to certify that there is a god and we are His servants and He is our Creator. If there is no Creator, take the words, “creation,” “creatures,” and “Creator” away from dictionaries. Why you are using these words if you are saying this is not true; that no one is creating this to come into existence. What is that foolishness? The most perfect one in existence is Man. Is he coming by himself? If no male and female, Man is not coming? How is this? Why they are not using? All governments and nations, what is this education? Why you are teaching people that this is happening by itself and not by God? People now are saying, “I am making and bringing in existence and making to go away.” When you are making that command to come in existence, how are you surrendering after a while?
People now are asking to live too much; they never like to die, to pass away. If everything is through your hands, why you are crying? Why you are getting older and then falling down, dying? If you are bringing into existence, give a proof and show something! Now they are saying, “No god.” What is that foolishness? If no god, how you are going to come in existence? “I am bringing into existence.” Very good, if you are, then are you wanting to live forever? They are wanting to be young ones. Who is making old ones? The One making you to be old ones, send away that One. Then old ones are falling down and finished. If you are bringing into existence, then do it! Why you are making those big lies and falling into trouble? Then if it is in your hands, why you are falling down and passing away?
Now it is the time of drunk people, drinking and getting more drunk. “Drunk” means they haven’t any control on their minds, on their understanding, on their wills, on anything. A drunk person has no will; he has lost his will and can’t do anything. He is never understanding what he is doing. And this point makes cursing to come on this planet. They are sending missiles or rockets. From far away, we are seeing our world like a football. What do you think about that? Who is making that planet like a football? You are seeing continents and oceans and seeing countless creatures from man to animals and plants. Why you are not saying, “Who is putting this football like a globe there?” Why you are not asking if that globe is by itself? You are saying that planets are moving and turning around and running on orbits and that orbits are also moving around the sun and the sun is moving also. Who is making this? Is everything by itself? What is that foolishness?
Who is making this, preventing for people? If people are saying, “Yes,” it means their level is under the level of animals. Animals can’t think. Who made you to exist also created you to think! To think is the key for every closed door. You may open it by thinking and your thinking is according to your capacity. Not everyone’s thinking is on the same level; so many different levels, different thinkings and different understandings. Everyone’s thinking is just different. You can think, Who is giving you that? Who granted you to think? Is it from yourself or it is coming from outside? Who made you to think? What you are reading is from outside (you) and perhaps it makes you think, but if you look to books to make you to think, that (knowledge) also belongs to someone else, not to you. You cannot think, because you are knowing nothing!
قل هَلْ يَسْتَوِي الَّذِينَ يَعْلَمُونَ وَالَّذِينَ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ إِنَّمَا يَتَذَكَّرُ أُوْلُوا الْأَلْبَابِ
Qul hal yastawi ‘lladheena ya`lamoona w 'alladheena laa ya`alamoon. innama yatadhakkaru oolu ‘l-albaab.
Say, “Are they equal, those who know and those who do not know?” It is those endued with understanding that receive admonition. (39:9)
Salafi ‘ulamas, why you are not making a commentary from the holy book, the last and most honored, most powerful one, the Holy Qur’an? Why you are not saying to people what is only in Holy Qur’an? You are saying, “No making salaam on Prophet, don’t make dhikr of Allah, Allah.” Or is your holy book only saying that it is okay, that beyond your knowledge nothing else?
وَفَوْقَ كُلِّ ذِي عِلْمٍ عَلِيمٌ
Wa fawqa kulli dhi `ilmin `aleem!
and over every lord of knowledge there is one more knowing. (12:76)
Don’t say, “We are last ones or most high-level learned people, that we are knowing and we are teaching, so you must follow us.” That is batil, false. And we are asking Salafi `ulamas, hal yastawoon alladheena ya`lamooona walladheena laa ya`alamoon? That means some people are knowing and some people are not knowing. That is not a condition that one person is knowing everything, and some are not knowing. Wa fawqa kulli dhi `ilmin aleem. Don’t be proud of what you are knowing, there are some whose levels are up.
وَفَوْقَ كُلِّ ذِي عِلْمٍ عَلِيمٌ
Wa fawqa kulli dhi `ilmin `aleem.
Above every knower, there is a greater knower. (12:76)
And we have to declare haqa’iq (facts) to people. Why you are not saying to Americans, to Russians, to Christians, “O People! don’t think that what you are doing is the top level of knowledge and beyond it, no knowledge.” You must say to them, that if they are knowing something, there is someone whose level is higher and higher and higher. What is going on is without stopping and without a limit. Every time, every day, every hour, every minute new knowledge is coming. Knowledge Oceans; that is the knowledge of the Creator. Creation is not in limits, and learning and knowledge also are never going to be in limits. (There are) new creations and new levels of knowledge. The level of understanding and knowledge of 20th century people is different to the level of people through the 19th century. Therefore, you must not be proud, saying, “We are Salafi `ulamas and others are not understanding.” No! That is the biggest ignorance. I may ask you, “Do you know your weight, how many pounds?” Say to me, “I don’t know. I must look on a scale.” How can you say, “We are `alim.” That means, no one knows everything. But (there are) levels on levels and people are just climbing and climbing.
Don’t make knowledge a square place, closing it and putting the key in your pocket. “What we know, no one knows.” No, that is not true. You must learn, hal yastawi ‘lladheena ya`lamooona walladheena laa ya`alamoon. Ya lamoona, the levels of knowing and knowledge are countless. Don’t make knowledge under your inhisar, confinement. Only words you are knowing, “Can’t be anyone knowing beyond that place, beyond us.” Knowing, ya `alamoon, beyond that, y `aalamoon. What you are knowing is something, but beyond that, on the second level, is ignorance. Don’t make knowledge in a circle, to be for you only and no one may come in. No, it is countless oceans. ‘Ilm, knowledge, says something and gives a way for others also. Therefore:
اطلبوا العلم من المهد إلى اللحد
utlub al `ilm min al-mahdi il al-laahad.
Seek knowledge from the cradle to the grave.
Sometimes Europeans are knowing more and Eastern people are knowing nothing, and sometimes Western people are knowing nothing and Eastern people are knowing more. Hal yastawi ‘lladheena ya`lamooona walladheena laa ya`alamoon, that means there are never-ending oceans for learning. You must learn and what you are learning helps you for ma`rifatullah. What you are learning is not for your personal knowing, but you are learning heavenly knowledge for giving away.
On Earth we are blind people, not knowing what atmosphere there is after. What is the meaning of space? (In Arabic fadaa, space.) What is in existence? Billions of galaxies means there is going to be something, so how are saying there is nothing? The levels of oceans are just different, red one, blue one, green one, yellow one, brown one, white one, black one; each one has some identity. What is making white color? Who is making yellow or blue color? Who is making men and women?
O People! Try to learn something and don’t run away like (Ayatu 'l-Kareemah):
حُمُرٌ مُّسْتَنفِرَةٌ فَرَّتْ مِن قَسْوَرَةٍ
humurun mustanfirah, farrat min qaswarah.
frightened asses Fleeing from a lion! (74:50-51)
People now, are running away from reality, like donkeys running away from lions. Try to be lions, not donkeys! May Allah forgives us.
Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, `Azeez Allah.
Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Subhaan Allah.
Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Sultan Allah.
Dome Dome, Dome Dome,
Dome Dome, Dome Dome,
Dome Dome, Dome Dome,
Dome Dome, Dome Dome.
Fatihah.
Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah,
Allah Allah, Allah Allah, Allah Allah, `Azeez Allah.
