As salamu alaikum O Yaaran of Shah Mardan! Oh beloved ones of ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib, may al-Salam be upon you this blessed day. May al-Salam be upon all of the Believers, who are readying themselves for the celebtration of Eid. Madad Ya Sahib ul-Maydan, Shah Mardan! May you grant us from your holy words. Your Yaaran are your admirers. May we kiss the hands and feet of our Master- Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wa aalihi wa sallam), who is the Pride of Creation. May he (S) grant us his interecession, and compassion. This is a Sohbet from Shah Mardan (‘Ali ibn Abi Talib). It is according to our level, our capacity. If we pass beyond our capacity, it is of no benefit. Welcome to you, O Yaaran of Shah Mardan. Welcome to those who attend the assembley of the lovers of ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib. O Shah Mardan, the Lion of Lions. Mubarak on the feast of Ramadan. May it be blessed for you, and blessed for us also. Enter, O Yaaran, O Ahbab. Kullu ebadallahi ikhwana, all of the servants of Allah are bretheren. Let us say, Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. Remember the Most Majestic Name of our Mawla, and that He accepted us for His servanthood. He dressed us with that honor, let us praise and thank our Lord. Let us put our foreheads down in prostration, in sajdah…Show love for Muslims. Defend and support Muslims. Stay away from those who are far away from Islam. Do not give them your hand, do not be close to them. Allahu Akbar. Be close to those who love Islam. Stay away from those who do not love Islam. Even if they have treasures like Quran, stay clear from them. Do not ask for them, they cannot match Islam’s honor, beauty, richness, lights, holiness and blessings. O Muslims, listen to Shah Mardan. This is what he is saying. Love, so you can be loved. Love Allah, and run toward Him. Love our Master, the Prophet (S) and run toward him. Run away from those who do not love them. Don’t go, O Muslims, to those who don’t come to Islam. Don’t beg from them. Don’t deal with them, even if they give you money. Keep the honor of Islam, and Allah will send you grants of abundance and prosperity like the rain…O Turks, you have become bewildered. O Arabs, you have become confused. You are running after democracy, it is a filthy way, a hole. Whoever falls in it, it drowns them. Come to the clean way…These few words from Shah Mardan are sufficient for us. It is enough for the world, and the seven worlds. Let us say, Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar laa ilaha illallahu Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar wa lillahil hamd…Al Azamatulillah…May your honor increase. Man’s honor is from Islam. There is no honor outside of Islam. O Allah grant peace upon our Master Muhammad, the Master of the first and last. Salat and Salam upon our Master, who is the King of Kings. May it be easier for us to follow the ways he showed us. May our faces be full of lights, and our hearts pure. May our end be a good one. Say, “Allah” and go forth. This is enough for today…Fatiha
