Alhamdulillah
wa Salatu was
one of our
brothers and sisters
begin
May Allah subhana wa tada Bless you, with those, Allah Allah.
May Allah grant you the best in the dunya
and the best in the Oscar.
May Allah subhana wa tada make this nation,
a great nation again
to show its values, and to show the religion of Islam to the entire world.
because the world needs you, again, to rise up and to show them justice, to show them
to show them love.
Brothers and sisters
history did not begin 80 or 90 years ago.
Your history began 1400 years ago, when the angel degrade. La Silla Elisa spoke to the Prophet sallallahu he was sending this,
to tell him
to inspire him
to repeat the words of Allah subhanho wa Taala.
This move because
this is when our history began.
And this history continued to the place from behind us when
the Ottomans
when we had is justice, harmony, distribution of wealth.
This is your history. Don't be blinded by some ideologues, you might need to think that your history is only eight years old. I
know that your history is a great history, the Turkish people are great people, but you have to realize this yourself. You have to understand this yourself. You have to arise and want
to find
a way to show to the world. How great you can be, how great you were, and how great you are. Because brothers and sisters, what why he only Islam can bring a Greek to Turkey, and to address all of you with love.
Only Islam has the power to do this.
Only Islam has the power to unite hearts, to bring us together in love for the sake of Allah. This is a religion. This is the religion of how no other ideology can bring harm like this. nationalism can never be together. Capitalism can bring together socialism can never bring you together. liberalism can never bring me and you together.
No one
can do this.
With two groups of people, they are told by their ancestors to hate each other. But Islam can change all that
with a few words of truth
So I want you to realize brothers and sisters,
that you are great people, that your history is great. And your whole history is the history of that.
And this is why today brothers and sisters, we are going to be talking about how to change the world.
And before we do this, I will explain to you how data
is important in our lives.
Otherwise, the our brothers and sisters is open negation. It is an obligation for Allah Subhana.
Allah says,
although it is a video of being cool, invites people to the Sabine with ha the way for love, the way of
the way we
love, the way of gentlemen
is telling us to invite the whole world to this beautiful religion.
Not only this, but also kind of what Allah is telling us that my success, your success, our success is based on giving that Allah, Allah, Allah want to make
Haley
and let them rise amongst you a group of people that was cool, go to the Hail to the good and this good, according to the commentator, even keel, he said This means the whole of the smart. So they go to the good. They command what is right. they forbid the car What is wrong? What?
And they are the one who will attain success. Do you know what success means your brothers and sisters success means
as good to be in his Topsail he says this means Jelena. So if you are Jelena,
we have to start together.
We have to come together to get
to know each other.
Everybody wants to go to China.
take some steps to get to be those who are the successful ones. Not only this brothers and sisters, but our defines who you are, that defines who I am thou identifying who we are.
Because the Prophet Mohammed is so below it.
He said in a heavy,
then you can find is heavy in the 40 hobbies compiled by analogy.
He said, then
you won't truly believe
unless you love for your brother, what you love for yourself.
And this brotherhood doesn't mean just Muslims, it means insane humanity.
So therefore, if we want to define ourselves as Muslims, as true believers, we have to give this thing we love the last 200 years. So I want to ask you a question.
What do you love the most?
We all know the answer. We must love Allah. And
so in order to define ourselves, as believers, we have to give love to other people. And the only way to give this love is to give dialogue.
Another reason, brothers and sisters why you must give down is because it saves us from fitness.
And our go out is
there is a heat from the Prophet salallahu it he was sending it
When he says, you really command the goodness and you win
and if you do not
send down a calamity upon you, and he would raise your hand
and you will not be upset.
So commanding the good, forbidding the evil, getting involved in dour is a way for our garage to be answered, as it is a way to prevent calamity.
This is very, very important for us to discuss the understand the brothers and sisters.
Another reason why it
can be found in the Quran. When Allah subhanho wa Taala talks about the fifth one of the Sabbath, a famous story
where Allah subhanho wa Taala he wanted to test
this people have a child who used to fish and they used to get their money from fishing,
and a lot older,
and they would choose a lot closer do not fish on the day of the Sabbath.
Friday into Saturday, Margaret, no fishing.
There were three groups of people.
The first group of people, they just obey Allah. They this obey the laws of Hannah was
the second group of people. They obey the law.
they obey Allah. They did not fish on the day of the Sabbath.
The same group of people, they obeyed Allah.
But they also told the others to fear of law, to have consciousness of also.
What was the response by the law.
And we know this, he says,
Allah destroyed that rescue because they disobeyed a law, they failed the test.
The second group of people, the second group of people,
a lesser punishment,
but the third group of people. And let me remind you, the third group of people that said, of people, not only did they obey of law, but they gave down they told other people to obey of law. And they remove is that a law? praise them?
praise them. This means that if you get involved in Java, and you obey Allah, praise You
deserve the praise and help
me
anyone deserves praise. But if you give,
but if you have a love, of love who praise you.
So
this is one of the major reasons why because
it brings us closer to the camera.
So brothers and sisters, this is why we must keep down. The other question is,
how can I change the world?
Well, in order to answer this question, let's go to the past. Let's go to the past into our history into your history into everybody's history, the Muslims history to see when the Dow was implemented in our history, we have amazing things.
And people said amazing things about us.
And I'm going to give you some examples. The first example is progress.
Today, there
is no very close to the cloud is running away from the allegations are not very progressive. But when you go to the past, when you go into the past into our history, you'd see brothers and sisters.
That is wrong.
facilitated progress.
Let me explain.
Brothers and sisters when you
is expanding.
And we took Spain for example,
the values of Islam, the values of peace, justice, tolerance, harmony
of ideas,
was encouraged in Islamic Spain.
And this created a society. This created a harmony with Muslims, Jews, Christians, and everybody else could work together, to look into nature, to try and understand how Allah leads the universe to try to understand how Allah
created things, the process of the physical world.
And this created an unprecedented history where you have scholarship concerning physics, astronomy,
literature, mathematics, geology, geometry, algebra.
And all of these wonderful Sciences
is run expanding, as the academics tell us was the director here, at coexistence of Muslim, Jewish, Christian wedding together.
And this was as a result of the system of Islam that allow these people to work together.
And Islamic Spain, brothers and sisters, is a reason for the European Renaissance.
Islamic Spain was the cause to the European ratios.
If you go to the academic professor, Thomas Arnold, in his book, the preaching of Islam, he says, Muslim Spain was that states
that facilitated the Europeans
to have very strong and the scientific revolution.
This was a direct result of the socio political violence coming from the corral
the
city in Guinea, the judge
was also
telling us to look into nature, to look into the is to look into the universe, the cosmos.
What can
you possibly
do explain our signs and evidence is for those who reflect
it is no wonder the French artistic critic, john shakin rhetoric.
He says,
Don't think that the Muslims, they went to Spain, they went around the world because they wanted me to
know
Muslims expanding around the world, because they were inspired by the
to look into the horizons to look into nature. Share people this amazing religion.
This is why brothers and sisters
this iPhone
is because of the slow
because the iPhone will never work if you didn't have
an algorithm. And the algorithm was developed by the Muslims as a result of the social political environment that allowed such Muslims to investigate the sciences. So next time brothers and sisters when you want a phone demand a free phone because it's part of your heritage.
any brothers or sisters, whether you're Christian took over Spain, particularly to a leader
of the this amazing environment. They saw manuscripts on chemistry
So manuscripts on science, they stole manuscripts on physics, and then took it back to places like England in the UK.
And two interesting gentlemen.
And Daniel morning, they went to stay connected devices, scripts, and they took him back to England. And he
created an institution, which is now known as Oxford University.
Because
this is why outside the gates of Oxford University, they should not be lacking words, outside the gates of Oxford University, they should have and haven't been on me, they should praise the law, because Oxford University was a direct result of the Islamic
political environment.
And this is how to change the world concerning the European nations, because brothers and sisters,
when
you create nations like this, that allows people to look into the sciences as you progress. This was the result of the Dow
the Dow how they change the world
is justice, Justice brothers and sisters,
in a world where there was no justice,
the alternative,
they
gave us this justice, you need to learn this for yourself. You need to understand your own history and your heritage. Even Jewish academic historians, they talk about this.
There's a Jewish historian. His name is unknown co-head.
He wrote a book, a world within a World Within and he connected what is 1000 Records 1000 records of the ID of a judge
was many,
many years ago, and he concluded and listen to this, he concluded, although the Jews had the freedom to go to the rabbi, the majority of the cases, they wanted to go to the garden because justice was under the feet of the body justice was under the shade of Islam. And this is what you have to understand brothers and sisters. Look at America, the United States of America, the home
of the brave and the land of the free.
There is stating justice today. In order for you to be successful in courts, you have to have a lot of money. It is not egalitarianism. It is not fair.
Although you can go to the NBA the journalists, and they have no right. These liberals, the secondaries, these it loves to find the finger
is wrong, because they should learn from our history. Because our history was a history of fitness. In the 21st century. You can't go to the American courts and win unless you have lots of money.
To see it is a plutocracy coming from the Greek word. * brutal, which means money and
you need to have a wealth of wealth to succeed, especially injustice, but
the ultimate period is your original goal. If you went to the lobby you would get your justice
It is no wonder
Yeah.
Oh, you have believed
be steadfast witnesses for a lot.
injustice. And notice the hatred of anyone make you swear from justice
that is closer to your duty that is closer to piety that is closer
to God consciousness.
And we have much more to say about justice.
This is why another Jewish historian
is talking about Sephardic Jewry. He talks about the Muslim is going to Spain. And he talked about the Jewish reaction. And he said, thus, when they cross the streets of Gibraltar in the Iberian Peninsula, the Jews saw the Muslims as is liberated from Christian persecution. This was the reality of Islam, the reality of the dialogue people, new people, new brothers and sisters, that Islam brought justice. People knew that Islam, what harmony and what feeder
so that the justice, we spoke about progress, we spoken about justice, but another thing that changes the world, it shows everybody whether you're Muslim, non Muslim, Jew, Christian, it makes no difference that everyone in our protection has food, shelter, and clothing, food, shelter, clothing, and another Jewish rabbi. You can find his lecture in the book by Philip Matheson called Constantinople. And this lesson was written in 1453 1453.
And this is Rabbi he says to his Jewish brothers in Europe, common to the land of the Turks.
We live in peace and freedom. We are not oppressed with heavy taxes, and rich of the fruits of the
brothers and sisters. America today
is suffering because of capitalism.
25% of the American population is living in poverty.
In Philadelphia, in one of the states in America, some people can't even eat food. In downtown Chicago, some children only go to school to have food because
there is no food.
But under
the Ottomans,
civilization as a civilization, it was the first stage everybody, everyone had food, shelter and clothing.
Go to the loss.
And you will see the baskets of sebata
the story says these past weeks were always fun meeting everyone has food, shelter and clothing. How dare How dare ideologues How dare is your conservatives. How's it dare the secretaries point the finger I saw
when he was a strong and
against everyone.
But today, they tried to give peaceful futures including how they speak, how they will shut their mouths with humility.
We have a heritage of us because we have a heritage that we must convey to others at home and abroad. This is our history brothers and sisters. And I think we
don't forget
the opposite is also
true
shirts and clothing the Greeks did peacefully under the Ottoman period. Don't listen to the Greek propaganda,
propaganda, and it is false. When we study academic history, we see that the Greeks are loving the European Union. The Greeks are thriving, they were willing to give their children to the priests, because they couldn't afford to feed their children, because of capitalism, because of the EU policy because of secondaries.
Increase decrease had direct.
And this is very important. So if I have time,
I will put in
Prime Minister
Why don't you
drink from Greek.
Greece
is 200 years ago and give them food.
So the other reason,
brothers and sisters, not only
not only justice, but we also have brothers and sisters. We have everyone having food, shelter and clothing. We did not have economic oppression. We have food shows and clothing to everybody. And this was the legacy of the Ottomans, even to the point where
the second was Turkey was seen as the sick man of Europe after having the second when I was in
the Irish potato famine, there was starving us in Hawaii, the second he gave the Irish
and many European nations didn't give anything. Because even when we were declining as a nation,
heavy the second US
and EU law says
that we are here.
leanness full does not mean a national problem. But
because we have something to offer. We as an Islamic nation, we have to give them this right.
Not only to give them China, but to give them
as well to establish peace and harmony and that people are fed and our people have the basic rights. This was the legacy brothers and sisters. oxygen's no other time in history. within a state boundary. You have everyone having food, shelter, and clothing. There are 1000s of people who are homeless in Britain. There are 1000s of people homeless in America, there are 1000s of people are homeless in Europe, but under the ultimate system that is our existence.
We ensure everyone has food, shelter and clothing. It is
one of the famous killers of Islam. Oh, geez. This is what he has to say. He says all people put me on the top of the mountain. So the people that will say that we kept hungry.
So part of our because they knew that they were responsible for every living creature. Normally the human being
But even worse, this is not well. This is a Quranic
Quranic personality. And this is how Islam and the Java change the world from this perspective, brothers and sisters.
It is no wonder
when he was
in Medina,
what did he do? He didn't travel alone to discuss diplomacy with other leaders in five star hotels know, he walked the city of Medina, he went to law school.
To find out the people required food because there was a family meeting.
Leader, he saw a woman and she was coming stone to clean water. Because the children will cry from the age of hunger, from the pain of hunger. And she didn't recognize amo. But she said, when she speaks to me, when she speaks to
me, she is going to take him to account and ask him why the children are starving. When they follow her overhead place where he has this, he didn't hide
it in the high.
He went back to the middle of the city, he went back to the back of the house of wealth. He was back to the bank, if you like. And he took foods, and he took money. And he took resources. And he went back to the hotel. And his service said to him, yeah,
let's be carried some of the food and the luggage for you. And this is what he said. He said, You will not carry my luggage on the Day of Judgment.
So he walked to this woman. And not only did he give her the food, but he cooked the food
for the children. And he said near the house, because he wants to wake up in the morning to see the children smiling. This is the direction that we created. This is the leadership that we create the brothers and sisters
leadership
only changed leaders. But it changed the world concerning progress, justice, economic distribution,
and tolerance.
Brothers and sisters,
we have to understand this is a direct result of the fact that
we cannot chase a mirage anymore. It's like wandering in the desert.
And we think we see water and we try and quench our thirst. But all we have is a mouthful of sand.
We are chasing a mirage.
Because we think when we go outside,
outside,
outside, the sooner we think we're going to find the solution. But history's always telling us every time you go to something else, like secularism, or capitalism
or communism,
or fascism
or nationalism, when we go to the seasons, we have to face disruption. But when we come back to Islam, we have amazing things to give to humanity to give to ourselves. truth, justice, progress, accountability. Don't get me wrong. Our history is not full of genuine
mistakes. Of course without mistakes. No one is perfect.
Nobody is perfect. But I'm telling you, if you have an opinion, if you have an intellect, and you would write down all of the values that he rents of Islam on one piece of paper and compare it with the achievements and violence of capitalism, liberalism, secularism, nationalism, attending, Islam will always prevail.
This is the reality
History, we have an amazing history. Imagine brothers and sisters, you would write a CD to get a job.
And this man, he looks at your CV, the CV of Islam, and the CV of capitalism, he will see not much experience in capitalism 200 years, a lot of problems.
You see, on Islam, over 1000 years of history, many great achievements. As a businessman, who would you choose?
That's why
we're getting fairly complex. Most of you are suffering from a complex, you think because of our religion, by some
extremists.
Going backwards, people will call you stupid economic info, you need to join our youth very complex, you need to understand that how
Allah will give us the strength alive.
If you go to the ages, you need
to be one of these things, I think you need a strong, positive, compassionate case for some, don't hide behind your feelings. Don't hide,
don't hide behind
you.
You need to talk to talk because Allah will take you all through the day of judgment. Because I realize
there are two big groups secondary.
And the Muslim is the people who are practicing.
But I want to give you some advice on
the progress of a lovable set of demons in the religion is good advice.
Brothers and sisters, the secretaries, they are not the enemy. They are our brothers.
They are the Civic gloss. They don't know the history, they're confused. We have to see them.
Don't see them as the enemy. Don't see them.
Don't forget history, the British, the French, the colonial powers, they were looking at the Ottomans and waiting to destroy
those money. They want to destroy it in 1923
when they announced on the third of March
that
they were waiting for this
is before and then use your people
establish the destruction
of the ultimate goal of Islam.
And today secularism is a product of that history. You shouldn't blame them.
There's been a huge, long historical propaganda campaign.
We have to understand this. It is our job now. Our responsibility to speak to our brothers and sisters, with love
with compassion with Russia.
And he showed them
another history to show them that they shouldn't fear Islam, to show that Islam is for everyone. To show that Islam would liberate their hearts, it would free their minds and give peace to the soul.
You need to speak like this. speak to them as if you're speaking to your mother.
speak to them as if they are better than you. If you always speak to them like this. They will listen and eventually
don't create two camps
with each other.
Bring them to make them understand what you know. make them understand what you love. Share the
dough
All for the travel check on that was a divide and rule
that allowed you to invite people to
the house of peace in the dunya and in Africa.
So brothers and sisters, we know how important giving Dawa is as we discussed today, and brothers and sisters, we don't have doubt in the world. He created the scientific revolution,
establish true justice,
establish truth words,
and
ensure the distribution of power.
Because under capitalism, systems, capitalism is murderous capitalism must be put on trial. Capitalism is a disease. Capitalism is the terrorism of the 21st century, more people die under capitalism than any other ism.
Take America, for example.
people dying because of too much food, good obesity. 10 million Americans
are dying because the TV
show
in Africa
in 2003, point 6 million children die because of food.
The problem is that there's no distribution of wealth in a fair and equal manner. And this is the direct result of capitalism. It doesn't build the number one problem of economics by slum view, the number one problem of economics, which is distribution, and it's called King here to ensure that they're just distribution of work. Don't get me wrong, Islam is not communism.
Islam is not.
Islam believes in distribution of wealth, but it believes in private property and public private property
is not very unique. It's not capitalism is not communism, it is Islam, and Islam as a unique way of dealing with economic problems,
as we seen in America, in the Ottoman period.
So capitalism is waging war against reality. Capitalism is waging war against humanity. You have the solution. But you need to give this solution to humanity. When you are University studying these topics, become intellectual, become the future influentials discuss these ideas to have powers uniting to the right solution, otherwise,
there will be fall into the same problem.
It is your responsibility brothers and sisters, it is on your shoulders, you are the youth, you are the future, you are the change
and inshallah maybe within five years, 10 years, you will be able to
create a social political change that you will never imagined.
Brothers and sisters, look at the power of
the power of the belief in the power of companies, we always say that
there is no true power, apart from the power of law. We always say this. But what is the beauty in our hearts in these behind everything is the power of love. And when the Sahaba the companions of the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam understood this. They change the world.
With World War One
and 23 years, ours stood up and took over one third of the world and establish peace and justice.
This is a miracle. This is a historical miracle. Even Western academic historians like Elon Elon rising, she said we cannot explain naturally. How is slow and steady surface of the world wasn't 23 years and won the book. It's like a miracle.
Brothers and sisters, you could do the same thing.
But you have to understand
Islam the way the Sahaba understood Islam,
because they understood Islam is not about buildings is not about
Islam
is
the money. Don't forget Kevin,
about hearts. This is why 80 years 80 years
he was such
as we were in Spain, but it was 18 years after the death of the prophets of Allah.
When the Muslims decided to fix the loss of a beloved Prophet, he was still drinking of water.
To show you that our success is knowing buildings, our success is
our success is going going and Zuma our successes in people in the house and people of substance, this is our success. Our success is in our success is our success.
This is where
he would show his own clothing. He will
buy he has patches on his clothes. He owns a building, but he would not eat more than the corner. He was
our beloved prophet.
He was the best on this planet. He didn't have a pilot.
He didn't even have food. For six months, there was no smoke coming outside of the house. Of
course, six months. There was no food. There was a time when he was so hungry, he went out to look for food.
Another time he had one day, and he shared that day. And he said you'll be accountable even to this day.
The focus of Hawaii,
in Hawaii in Shanghai.
He says, Oh, what a wonderful curry.
Vinegar is
he to take his bread and put into vinegar. And he used to say vinegar is the best current.
The success
had nothing to do with breweries. He was the leader of the Muslims. They need all the prophets have happy
to see
it nice to see you.
So our success is
our success is a belief and relationship with Allah subhanho wa Taala because once you have a love, you have everything. But once you have everything But you don't have a lot you have nothing.
Trust me. Take away your money. Take away your family. Take away your vote. Take away your cars. Take away your name. Take away your status, take for your security, take away your jobs.
What do you have?
What do you have
brothers and sisters it's a zip also catalogs are created every Tuesday with a hole in the hearts and sometimes we try and fill the hole the Goodyear the everytime fill the hole
there is another hole
and then we try and do the whole area and then there's another hole
but once you fill the hole with the love of Allah
Your heart is complete.
And this is something you have to understand.
This is something that the Sahaba understood. And this is why he became the most successful nation in the world to the point where he story still cannot understand how Islam established itself.
It is a historical miracle.
Brothers and sisters, I want you to make a promise.
making a promise.
You understand?
The promise is that you will try your best
to give it out to people.
Because our is your success
as a nation, that is your success. You don't forget,
Turkey in the last 10 years has been relatively successful. Economy is better.
Turkey is not a third world nation anymore. It's part of the first world.
And why do you think this is the case?
Because of the government.
And this government has some goodies.
If you take those badges away, maybe this success will never have happened.
Because I'm a second year under fundamentalist secularism.
He was oppressing people, people couldn't pray properly. People couldn't be proud of their religion.
And even other minorities were oppressed.
But there have been some changes. Because of these keys and values that they carry. Imagine if we were to adopt all these are require us to see what type of change will happen.
I'm telling you,
Juno's, there was a gentleman at the time of the era of ultimate, a German poet. God says, He says, I pray I pray that the Turkish force drinks
from a river lion from a German river, meaning your was in darkness. And what is the optimal deliberate
activity?
If we come down to our own nation, to ourselves, maybe the few years, obama wins, right?
And he's like to say, question is
brothers and sisters, I'm going to end here.
Before I end, I really want to make it
makes turkey a great nation again, the loss of habitat either ensures that everybody do Christian
secularists Islam is everyone in this nation has feast has arrived.
Has
food
has shelter, clothing has tranquility, of
water as all of you come together in love. Because the book
says that you will not enter
into you believe and you will not believe if you love one another. Don't forget
that loving.
And don't forget what the prophet says.
He says Allah loves you more than your mother loves you. We have a loving more. Our love is nothing and he loves you. And we must understand is to empower ourselves and our nations and upgrade for lots of
people power and influence in this country. understand the basics. This is with a lot
And then the destruction is awakening
and appraisal
that every single one of you in this room becomes someone who calls people to Allah, you get the data.
And as you have the means to create a better nation, for everyone, with a non religious, non religious
and afraid
that you own that you own normally thought of giving down to a nation, but maybe also you can help me,
give nation doubt my nation, Greece
and other nations, because the world needs Assad brothers and sisters, they need the right horse.
And you need to be the change of Allah says in the letter that you with you, Indeed, Allah has not changed a situation of the people and if they change
what's within themselves? Maybe today, I beg you to make that change. You are how people with an amazing history, read
it change the world and change the future. But the only way that can happen if you arrive and become the future.
nature's beauty
knowing everything
