Yesterday the Greek journalist, Mr. Yorgos Xepapadakos, made an important interview with Mawlana. Mr. Yorgos smartly knew that to truly meet with the Master, you need to give in to him. Therefore, he open heartedly met with Mawlana, yet, was able to handle an excellent interview; one, that so many people will benefit from. Mawlana was pleased with Mr. Yorgos, and supported him. He called him, My Grandson. "It Was a Dream I Was Waiting For”.

We Are Muslims
Jul19 2011 Turkish
What is the secret in small things that allows them to grow and become great? How can a poor Orphan (sas) in the unknown desserts of Arabia become the Founder a worldwide religion with millions of sincere followers from all-over the world, allowing history and civilization to be born on these lands? How could the Great Ottomans rule the whole world raising Allah's word and the Banner of His Prophet (sas)? How could such a magnificent empire be destroyed by a group of young people, whose beliefs, intentions and lineages are obscure? Why, "We are Osmanlis / Ottomans"? And what can we do to save the honor of Islam? These are some of the issues Mawlana addresses in the important Sohbat, "Müslümanız -We Are Muslims - نحن مسلمون".

Advice to All
Jul14 2011 English
Last Thursday, Mawlana gave a special English sohbat. In this sohbat, Mawlana left no subject untouched. He explained something about everything. And because of the wide scope of subjects in this sohbat, it was difficult to find it a proper name. When this was mentioned to Mawlana he said call it, "Nasihah Lil 'Ammah - نصيحة للعامّة" (= Advice to All).
Don't Ask!
Jul14 2011 Turkish
Someone asked about the interpretation of the holy verse, "وسع كرسيه السموات و الأرض" And Mawlana's answer was the important sohbat, "Sormayin! - Don't Ask!" This sohbat identifies the basic requirements for seeking and acquiring knowledge. Without meeting these requirements, there is no real question or true knowledge. It is all a waste of time and effort. Thus, the holy verse, "و لا تسألوا عن أشياءإن تبد لكم تسؤكم - Açiklandiği Zaman Hoşunuza Gitmeyecek Olan Şeylerden Sormayın - Do Not Ask about Things Which, If Shown to You, Will Distress You (5:101)”.

As If They Are Alarmed Donkeys, Fleeing From a Lion (74:50,51)
Jul11 2011 Arabic
"As If They Are Alarmed Donkeys, Fleeing From a Lion (74:50-51) - كأنهم حمر مستنفرة، فرت من قسورة" is a vivid Quranic description of the condition of unbelievers. It doesn't only describe the unbelievers in the time this holy verse was revealed, but its eternal truth extends to include the whole human condition of our times.
