In this vast universe there are special ones who can see it all without a telescope and who can also see the human heart. Mawlana Sheikh Nazim was one. They don’t own anything, they only serve their Lord. When one passes another takes his place and each one has his special flavour.
It Is Very Simple
Dec11 2014 English 35min
You must understand that Mawlana made it very simple and straightforward. Don’t be stupid and don’t be confused. Follow your Sheikh and give your sincerity to him. All that matters is that you keep your position in front of him.

Sail with the Wind
Dec10 2014 English 18min
You must sail your boat according to the wind. The wind is not at your command, it is independent of you. The spiritual way tells you how to sail with the wind. Life is not supposed to be easy but with the tests come the rewards. Without the sadness how would we know the joy?
Love Rasulullah and Pray

The One
Dec08 2014 English 8min
There is one God, there is one sultan, there is one king and there can only be one sheikh. Alhamdulillah we had the chance to pray with, to kiss the hand of, to associate with, Mawlana Sheikh Nazim and he left us Sheikh Mehmet as the one to be our Sheikh.
Accessories
Nov30 2014 English 23min
We are very small servants but Allah has given us honor by giving us a Sheikh and putting us in the Nation of Muhammad (sas). Loving him gives us honor and value. What gives the saints their station is their love for the Prophet. Everything else is just an accessory.
An Explanation
Nov29 2014 English 22min
To give our love to Allah, to the Prophet (sas), to our Sheikh - this is our purpose in life. To do this we must obey, even if our ego objects, no matter how we feel, or what we think. To obey expresses our complete love. This is the simple explanation.
Be Sincere
Nov25 2014 English 26min
The best advice for any of us is - Be sincere. Don’t be jealous of what Allah gave others, not of the Prophet (sas) and not of the Sheikh. No one can fill Mawlana’s place. They can fill the time but not his place. The Tariqa belongs to Allah and He will keep it going.
Divine Email
Nov23 2014 English 23min
In this world only Iman/faith belongs to you. It is Iman that fills the heart with love. May Allah send it as an e-mail to our hearts. But we need a Murshid, a guide so that we don’t follow shaytan and the ego. The Prophet (sas) was the greatest guide. Don’t underestimate him. The problems of the Muslim world today arise from their underestimating and being jealous of the Prophet (sas).
Don’t Be a Mule
Nov22 2014 English 25min
The ego thinks itself very big, so big it doesn’t need a sheikh and even argues with its Creator. The ego will never accept a sheikh other than itself. The most important work of Tariqa is to try to control the ego. Don’t be a mule, obey your sheikh.
Love’s Stock Exchange
Nov16 2014 English 26min
Only spiritual love is eternal and pure. Don’t mix it with physical love. Mawlana in his generosity, opened a big door of love for us and for everyone. He gave without looking or counting, with the speed of the stock exchange. We must be thankful.
Appreciate Don't Negotiate

The Powerful Orphans of Mawlana
Nov09 2014 English 27min
Mawlana was our father. He treated us as his children. Now we are orphaned but, as brothers and sisters, we must be strong because he was strong and stay together under our new Sheikh, Sheikh Mehmet. And we must keep Mawlana in our hearts and keep his orders so that inshaAllah we will be near him again one day.
Tawba Before Your Time Is Up
Nov08 2014 English 25min
Sheikh Bahauddin remembers his father’s generosity with his love, his attention and his time. We should still serve and honor him and remember we are nothing. Allah doesn’t like the servant to think he is something. So repent before it is too late.
Nonnegotiable
Nov04 2014 English 19min
There is no democracy in Tariqa. Just like Hajj, we cannot question why it is this way or that, we must simply follow and obey. The order of the Sheikh is like this and in it lies safety. This is the time to look for yourself and to save your own boat.
