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.

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.

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.

The Love of a Murshid

The love of a husband, or wife or child is temporary. Love your Murshid. He brings you closer to a level that you don’t know. A level of feeling confidence and comfort with Allah and Rasulullah. A true murshid is a heavenly gift. Without his love you are nothing.

Nasiha

Nasiha (advice) must first be given to oneself and then only to others. Ego rejects real advice because learning is painful so having a Murshid is important. His Nasiha is a ready-to-eat meal. It teaches acceptance, good manners and how to learn all in one. So remind, keep it simple, the response will come.
