Yunus 62: Know that for Allah’s friends, there is no fear, and they shall not be saddened.

Surah Yunus, verse 62.

Know that the friends of Allah have no fear.

Nor will they grieve.

Who are the friends of Allah?

O soul at peace! Your Lord pleased with you, you pleased with your Lord, go among My servants, go to Paradise, as I say — those are the people. They are the believers. Above the believer: people of nafs-i raziye, nafs-i marziye, nafs-i safiye, the kutb-ul azam, the kutb-ul aktab, righteous servants; nafs-i raziye, that is, scholars, believers. In the sight of Allah, neither will a stain be smeared on their faces, nor will they be saddened, nor will they grieve, it says. Well, does a person never grieve? If my father goes to hell, is subjected to punishment — say he's a sinner, a Muslim but a sinner, and is going to punishment — won't I grieve?

He fed me, gave me drink, raised me. So when it says they will not grieve, in this verse, it indicates that Allah Almighty will give them the right of intercession. He says it in many verses anyway; despite saying it in many verses, despite saying He will give intercession, those poor people who (?) still say there is no right of intercession. Yet in Surah Ad-Duha: Allah will give you, it says. You will be pleased. What will He give? He will give the right of intercession. This is to the Prophet. Aren't the scholars the heirs of the Prophet? You know, when people are unaware of the verses, they fall into very ridiculous situations.

Who are the friends of Allah Almighty? People who are friends of Allah are those who love Allah Almighty very much. They are those who, in order to be a servant as Allah Almighty wishes, struggle with their nafs and reform their nafs. They are people who abide by Allah's commands and become God-fearing. They both love Allah very much and fear Allah very much. These are people who believe with certainty in the hereafter and who have a soul at peace. These are called believers. These are believers.

In the hereafter, by Allah Himself receiving them, these believers will be honoured and will become heirs of the abode of eternal bliss. Neither a stain nor sorrow will touch their faces.

Allah will give them the right of intercession. Allah Almighty, for the mistakes such servants of His have made, to those among them who have rights, Allah will give to these right-holders until they are content with the believers. So neither a stain nor sorrow will touch the faces of these people. These are the people to be envied. These are also the ones who attain salvation. Were we created without fault as humans? Surely we will make mistakes. In the end the man will say: My Allah, this servant whom You love committed this injustice against me. Isn't this (?) to me? Come here, He will say. Come. Come.

Yes, I know too. Since You created him as a human being, he did this (?). But with the remorse in his heart he could not reach you; in return for his remorse you gave him this much attribute; you too take from this whatever you want, here's this much attribute for you, this is your place; may Allah be pleased with that servant, you be pleased with him, He says; that stain is lifted from him. I wish, he says, he had insulted me a little more and I had taken a little more of my right from him. Yes, in this case Allah Almighty, towards those He loves, will receive them with a smiling face. Their light, it says, will come from their right and from in front of them.

It will guide them. You know, those with the bridge of Sirat — you know, they make them cross that Sirat, they hook them on hooks. (?) God forbid, there is no such thing. Sir, from behind they will call out to these people of light: Wait for us too, so that we may benefit from your (?). And they say: turn back, so that (?). In this case everyone — without dodging Israfil, no one, it says, can dodge Israfil. That is, getting outside his rule, outside his sight — anyway, Israfil will encompass every side, then. He will gather everyone and bring them to the place of assembly. To the place of assembly, he will gather them there.

Where did you find the Bridge of Sirat here? You made them cross it. As our forefathers said: if you leave the right path, you fall into the middle of hell. The saying, passing from tongue to tongue, became the Bridge of Sirat. That is, that right path — how does one fall into the middle of hell? There is a bridge on that path. Surely the bridge will break, or he will fall off the bridge. This path, they say, is thinner than a sword, sharper than a hair. True Islam is like that. They brought this in too. A very thin hair. Like a railway, like a rail track. They drag them along on it. These are mindless, really.

Truly mindless. Today even their greatest scholars know it this way. Their greatest scholars. Unfortunately I will again mention this person's name, so that he comes to his senses. I will mention this person's name. Hatipoğlu again. He talks about the Bridge of Sirat — such words don't befit these people. They are people who occupy a certain position. In this case: he bumps into hooks, he bumps into this, bumps into that. O Hatipoğlu! In (?) I listed sixty-seven verses that hell does not exist, that the Bridge of Sirat does not exist. You show me one verse. Show me a verse that the Bridge of Sirat exists.

Show me a hadith, a hadith. Don't do this. People — don't drag people into topics you don't know; in the sight of Allah consider your burden. Yes. This is my advice to you. The world is passing, if you want to build your hereafter, if you want to live well in the abode of eternal bliss, please be careful what you say. Don't put your finger on places you don't know.
