Shayṭān’s New Recipe
May01 2016 English 25min
After the birth of the Prophet (sas) shayṭān became invisible. Now he works through the minds of men making them wild and violent. Islam forbids even the unwarranted killing of insects. Islam is love for Allah, His Prophet, and His creation.
What Gives Value

Love of Rasulullah gives value to everything we do. He provides the understanding of the things that Allah has provided for us or commanded us. We can read Quran and Hadith but without the Prophet (sas), the sahaba, the saints, the sheikhs we cannot reach the treasures they contain.
How to Make Life Difficult
Apr26 2016 English 20min
Allah loves His easygoing servant. Give your love and trust to your Murshid, to Rasulullah, to Allah. Because love has no value unless it is accepted and they accept all the love that is given. We make things difficult in three ways, by being grumpy, not thankful, and by not appreciating.
Silently Shouting

Allah’s presence is all around us, imbedded in the creation and yet we don’t hear. It is as if He is shouting but silently. We need the Prophet (sas) to help us to hear and understand. The disease of today is people think Allah is like them and they think they can act for Allah.

We Are Against Isis
Apr16 2016 English 25min

The Cure for Spiritual Heaviness
Apr03 2016 Turkish 14min
What sins you commit become heaviness for you. It is much easier to carry material heaviness than it is to carry spiritual heaviness. It brings you troubles in dunya and punishment in akhira. So ask forgiveness from the Most Merciful Lord while you can.
