"Sultan Eyüp Hz - (أبو أيوب الأنصاري (رضي الله عنه - Sultan Abu Ayub al-Ansary". The Mufti of Istanbul is discouraging people from visiting the tomb of the great Sahabi and the spiritual Sultan of Istanbul, Hz. Abu Ayub al-Ansary (ra), claiming that such a visit has no value. The mosque of Hz. Ayub is closed throughout the Holy month of Ramadan because they say that it is "under renovation". This is a situation that breaks the hearts of true Muslims who seek nearness to their Prophet (sas) especially in this holy month by means of such a visit. This is not unique to Turkey or Istanbul. It happens in all Muslim countries wherever a tomb of a sahabi or a relative of the Prophet (sas) or that of a big saint, exists. Mawlana answers them and urges Hoja Jubbeli Ahmad and all Imams to speak up and stop such fitna.

How Is It in the Grave?
Aug04 2011 Turkish 51min
Ramazan Sohbetleri: "Kabirde Nasil Olacak? - How Is It in the Grave? - أحوال القبر". Rarely has Mawlana spoken about the life in the grave and what it can carry for its owner from punishment or reward. This makes tonight's sohbat a very special one. In this sohbat too, Mawlana again and again urges Jubbeli Ahmad Hoja to stop talking about abstract theoretical issues and theological debates, and, instead, to deal with issues that have immediate influence on the daily reality of every Muslim.
Fast
Aug03 2011 Turkish 57min
Mawlana started "Ramazan Sohbetleri" (The Ramadan Sohbats). Everyday he gives a sohbat in Turkish. He calls Baba Tahsin (from the Black sea region) and Haji Kamaludin (from Anatolia) to attend these sohbats and be directly addressed by him as representatives of their people. Mawlana addresses Jubbeli Ahmat Effendi, an eminent Imam and preacher in Istanbul who give daily well-viewed religious lessons on Turkish TV. Mawlana directs him as to what and how to address the people in order to achieve the best benefit for Islam and Muslims. These sohbats are very lively. They deal with very important social and religious issues but in an incredible ironical style to show the people where their wrong behaviors, beliefs and ideas would finally take them. Mawlana does not give permission to translate every sohbat of these however, because some are very Turkish in their subject matter and style. Today's sohbat is translated, "Oruç Tutunuz! - Fast! - !صوموا".

The Appointment of Shaykh Mohammad in Sham Sherif
Jul30 2011 Turkish
After fajr prayer, Mawlana spoke about Shaykh Mohammad's spiritual power that qualifies him to carry out his new mission in Sham and the whole area. Mawlana mentions the 40 Spiritual Beings, guardians of Sham, and how they were looking at the Preserved Tablet for the Divine order and now the purpose of the present fitna is clean Sham from the Sufiyyanis. Because of the important nature of this sohbat, "The Appointment of Shaykh Mohammad in Sham Sherif - تعيين شيخ محمد في الشام الشريف" we asked Mawlana specifically about it, if we should broadcast it or not. Mawlana said to broadcast.

Thereover Zakariyyah Called upon His Lord (3:38)

Mawlana asked Sh. Kayyal, from Sham, about his understanding of the Quranic verse, "Thereover Zakariyyah Called upon His Lord (3:38) - هنالك دعا زكريا ربه". Mawlana shows in this ayat and in few others an irrefutable argument against Wahabis and a big lesson for the nation about the edeb of duaa.

The Day of Arafat
Jul28 2011 Arabic
We received the following email: saudis delayed the hijri calendar by one day. pl. Inform His Highness Sh. Nazim, that I had been verifying saudi hijri dates till 12th October, till that time it was haj akbar, but 15th October they changed the date , and 15th and 16th October both days the hijri date is 18th Zulqad. They delayed the calendar by one day so that there is no chance of Haj akbar. I have the scanned newspapers for 15th and 16th october. Then we found an old clip, filmed on the 28th of July, in which Mawlana speaks about the same point. Mawlana gave permission to broadcast this video. Mawlana, however, said that the dates in this sohbat are spiritual dates and that everyone should observe the official dates for the Day of Arafat and of Eid declared by their communities and have full trust in Allah.
So Relate the Stories (7:176)
Jul27 2011 Arabic
Mawlana says that the main goal for anyone who calls people to Allah, whether he is Imam or Wa'iz, is to soften people's hearts and to move their love for Prophet (sas). It is through that love that people seek the way of Allah. "So Relate the Stories - فاقصص القصص"
