Evening Lesson on 14.02.25:
With Mawlana English Translation:

✨️The Quran speaks about the Kuba Mosque, which was built upon piety. Alhamdulillah, our assembly in Goa is just like that. We were very happy. The people there are sincere, and the number of attendees is very high. InshaAllah, may every land be filled with people who love and seek Allah and His Messenger.

✨️Dajjalism enforces three things to destroy civilizations and keep people confined within a mold:

1. Destroy the concept of family.
Women should be made to believe that motherhood is a source of shame. Housewives should feel embarrassed for working at home. Once that happens, the concept of family collapses.

Yet, the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Paradise lies beneath the feet of mothers,” not women in general. A woman who raises and nurtures her child is called a mother. But a woman who works outside and entrusts her child to someone else cannot truly be called a mother.

A mother’s right is threefold, while a father’s is only one. If a mother takes money from her child’s pocket, no sin is recorded. However, if a father takes it without permission, it is considered a sin.

We must understand that it is the woman who establishes the family, not the man. As the proverb goes, “The female bird builds the nest,” and that is the truth.

2. Destroy education.
Undermine respect for teachers so that they lose their status in society.

Make students insult their teachers until they no longer hold any value or authority.

3. Eliminate values and role models.
Destroy everything that holds value in society—scholars, saints, and judges.

This means erasing the traditions of the Prophet (peace be upon him) and the customs beloved by the people.

They have succeeded in this by spreading slander and doubt, ensuring that no one listens to them anymore.

To accomplish these goals, they use worldly desires to keep people distracted—through advertisements, irrelevant news, and constant engagement with meaningless things. As a result, values disappear, and they have already succeeded in this.

We need to learn to let go. But what? We keep repeating the same mistakes, suffering consequences, yet never letting go. It’s fascinating how deeply people have been conditioned to occupy themselves with useless distractions. Even when these things harm their bodies, wealth, and families, they refuse to abandon them.

For example, scientific studies in Europe and America show how watching harmful content damages the human body and leads to divorces. People desire others outside their marriage, abandon their families, and thus, the concept of family is vanishing.
There are forces that make people repeat the same mistakes. Even when they bring misfortune, people still fall into the same traps.

Everything that harms the human body is a problem. Just as a single drop of ink can darken an entire glass of water, exposure to harmful things corrupts a person. Even though this is well known, people continue to do it and refuse to let go. If we don’t free ourselves from this, if we don’t respect others’ thoughts, and if we don’t follow the path of our elders, all meaningful values will disappear, and Dajjalism will establish its dominance.

No one rises to a higher rank without being tested. Every position and every role comes with an examination. People must be scrutinized to determine their level of mastery.

✨️Youth today say, “Life is free.”

They believe they can do whatever they want.
But you cannot do whatever you want.
If you isolate yourself from others, refusing to engage with anyone, you will have neither friends nor anyone who cares for you.

Mistakes may be forgiven once or twice, but by the third time, punishment is certain.
Trouble will definitely come your way.

A robotic humanity has been created—people who, through their actions, push everyone away yet feel no concern about it. This is leading to a major crisis.

✨️One day, Sheikh Vechuddin came in a dream. He was wearing the clothes of a gypsy and was rushing towards the house of someone I knew. I couldn’t make sense of it, so I visited that house and told them about my dream. They fell silent and did not answer. I asked, “Do you have any gypsy friends?” and they said, “Yes, we do.”
This is a matter you should be careful about—I told you to stay away.
I’m not saying this to criticize the Gypsies. They live a careless life, indifferent to others, unwilling to take advice, and living on their own. As a result, they have become a group that isolates itself from society.
After this situation, there was a very talented young man. This happened 6-7 years ago. On the night of Bara’at, he and his friends decided to go to a casino. In Turkey, a casino is not like in Russia—it’s a place with alcohol, prohibited activities, and women dancing. When they got there, he told his friends, “This is not the right night for this.” But they insisted on staying. They drank, probably got into a fight, and on their way back, they crashed into a tree with a BMW. The car burned, and everyone inside died.
That family was devastated. When I went to offer my condolences, I reminded them: “The fact that he ran to your house in that outfit was already a sign. Why didn’t you listen ten days ago?”
We’ve reached a point where exemplary people are no longer taken seriously. Everyone has a final destination. We are all heading toward the grave.

✨️The Role of Women in Family Structure:

The woman is at the foundation of the family. Allah says:
“A good word is like a good tree: its roots are firm, and its branches reach the sky.” (Qur’an 14:24)
If a mother is truly a mother—if she dedicates herself to her child and raises them well—wherever that child goes, they will always receive divine help and be elevated because of their mother’s upbringing.

Proper upbringing starts from pregnancy. If a mother nurtures her child with La ilaha illallah while nursing, raising them with Kalimah Tayyibah, then that child will always receive divine support.

Mothers of the past never said, “Our future is uncertain.” But now, children from such families say, “Who can we trust? Our future is uncertain, so we must study and find a career.”

Now, when a woman becomes pregnant, will she focus on raising her child or her job? She can never be like our mothers. Their work will always come before their motherhood, as will their salaries. That’s why they hire nannies. And since those nannies don’t have their own children, they don’t care about raising them properly either.

✨️There are many examples from the elders. Ahmedi Bican and Mehmed Bican were two brothers from among the Awliyaullah (friends of Allah). One day, Ahmedi Bican went to his mother and said, “While I was giving a sermon, my brother was not paying attention to the lesson. He was talking to the person next to him.”
His mother then went to Mehmed and asked, “Mehmed, why were you talking to someone else while your brother was giving a lesson?”
Mehmed replied, “Mother, it wasn’t just anyone. That was Khidr (alayhi salam).”
Khidr 🌹 (a.s.) had told him, “Your brother explains things beautifully. It is as if he has deep knowledge of these matters, just like us.”

When the mother told Ahmedi about this, he was upset and asked, “Mother, if the one sitting next to my brother was really Khidr, and my brother recognized him, why didn’t I know?”

His mother responded, “Ahmedi, I never gave you milk without ablution. But one day, while I was praying, you started crying. A neighbor came and gave you milk at that moment. When I finished my prayer, I asked if she had ablution, and she said no. That is the reason.”

✨️The Power of a Righteous Word

In the Quran, it is said:

“A good word is like a good tree: it always bears fruit.” (Ibrahim 25)

A kalimah tayyibah (pure word, la ilahe ilallah) will always return to its essence and become like a fruitful tree, no matter where it is planted. That is why the mother is the greatest educator. Allah commands:
“Do not even say ‘Uff’ to your parents.”

✨️The Great Trial of This Era

These concepts are among the greatest calamities affecting our society today. Every prophet prayed against the fitnah (tribulation) of the dajjal. “O Allah, protect us from their deception!”

We must teach our children to seek refuge in Allah from these trials. If we fail, society will continue to deteriorate.
Dua:
اللَّهُمَّ إني أعوذ بك من عذاب النار،
و من عذاب القبر,
ومن فتنة الْمَحْيَا وَالْمَمَاتِ،
ومن فتنة الْمَسِيحِ الدَّجَّال.
Allahumme inni eužibike min âzabin nar,
Ve min âzabil qabr,
Ve min fitnetil mahya ve memat,
Ve min fitnetil mesihid deccal.

In Turkey, a boy recently killed his own father and stayed in the same room with the body for a week. There is immense pressure on people today. All values are disappearing.

If there is no religion, conscience cannot establish control. If the human conscience does not rule over the body, then everything becomes permissible in their eyes.

All kinds of prohibitions begin to be violated.
People no longer fear Allah.
Nor do they fear His creation.

✨️One day, Caliph Omar (Hz. Ömer) visited a companion who was in the throes of death. He sat beside him, offering words of encouragement (talqīn). Soon, the man passed away. Umar then extinguished the lamp next to him.

When asked why he did that, he responded, “He has now passed away, and his heirs have a right over everything he owned. Since one of the heirs is not present, I cannot use this lamp without their permission.”

Hz. Omar was once a man who had buried his own daughter alive. But after embracing Islam, he underwent a transformation so profound that it changed him completely. The Prophet (ﷺ) did not simply give theoretical teachings—he cultivated individuals who embodied the principles of justice and morality. Umar extinguished the lamp to ensure he did not consume someone else’s rightful share, no matter how small.

✨️The Consequences of Injustice

We must never forget: When one takes from falsehood (bāṭil), one starves from truth (ḥaqq). But if one remains steadfast in truth, no falsehood can stand in their way.

Someone goes on vacation, saying, “I am exhausted; I need rest.” But after the holiday, they are still not rested. Why? Because they indulged in falsehood—looking at the forbidden, consuming the forbidden.

✨️The Prophet’s Example

The Prophet (ﷺ) showed us how to live by divine commands. Once, a delegation from Abyssinia (Habesha) came to visit him. Instead of allowing others to serve, the Prophet himself got up and attended to them.

The companions said, “O Messenger of Allah, let us serve them!”

But he replied, “No. They once honored my companions, so now I must honor them in return.”

From the Prophet (ﷺ), we learn every detail of Rahmah (mercy). But if faith is abandoned and values are altered, people begin to mock righteousness. Youth are on the verge of being lost.

✨️The Isolation of the Elderly

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the elderly were deliberately targeted. Not only were they left vulnerable to death, but they were also abandoned in loneliness—so that people would not listen to their wisdom.

✨️The Story of Socrates

Socrates was once considered the greatest physician of ancient Greece. However, his neighbor, who was also a doctor, was extremely jealous of him. Eventually, the neighbor approached the king and said, “I am a better doctor than Socrates. If he disagrees, let us both prepare a poison and its antidote. Whoever successfully cures himself shall live; the one who fails shall die.”

The king found the challenge intriguing and agreed.
For forty days, Socrates’ house echoed with the sound of dripping water. His rival could hear the dripping day and night. On the forty-first day, they both went to the palace.
Socrates drank first, then took his antidote and remained unharmed. When his rival drank from Socrates’ water, he died instantly.
The king asked, “How did you make your poison so powerful?”

Socrates replied, “I did not use poison at all.” Then, he drank the remaining water himself to prove it was harmless. “I only let the sound of dripping water play in his mind. He convinced himself that he was being poisoned. Fear killed him.”

✨️Caring for Others is an Act of Worship
One of the teachings of our faith is to help others unburden their worries. Lightening someone’s distress is zakāt for you—it is a form of charity and a great reward. When you listen to someone’s troubles, you offer them relief. Those who value people are valued by Allah.

Even just nodding and saying, “Yes, mother,” can bring immense comfort to an elderly person. They long for a simple phone call.

✨️Whoever treats Allah’s creation with kindness will be treated by Allah in the same way—both in this world and the next.

✨️If you seek goodness from Allah, do good to His servants.
If you desire mercy, be merciful to others.

✨️We must learn to win hearts. Winning hearts is an act of worship—it is called Jabr al-Khawātir in Islam.

✨️There is an Arabic proverb:
“Whoever makes an effort to heal hearts, Allah will come to their aid in every moment of danger.”

✨️As the saying goes: Kama tudīn tudān — As you treat others, so shall you be treated.
