What is said in the video

Festivals like these are for the unity and togetherness of people, to remove the grudges in hearts, the unrest, the resentments people have towards one another, so that in the joy of Islam, in the festival of Islam, embracing one another, losing one another's shortcomings in themselves, standing back to back, they grow stronger. Our Lord created both the holy nights and festivals like these on earth so that people embrace one another and spend life on earth in a festive spirit; these are the days He created for that.

People, earlier, in the covenants they had given to Allah Almighty, divided into groups. So when people come to the earth, living out their own destinies, by spreading corruption and mischief on earth, by staining it with blood, by oppressing people, living out the consequences of the covenants they gave, they prove what kind of people they are. Allah Almighty already says, did you think you would die without proving what kind of person you are? They fall into the state of the people in that verse. But against such people, Islam illuminates the earth with the light of Islam, and the people who live Islam, with their conduct and the worship they perform, with respect and worship for Allah Almighty who created the universe; our Lord programmed these worlds until the Day of Judgement, and Allah Almighty, who tests us with one another and makes us witnesses for one another, when He takes our account in the hereafter, at the Supreme Court, no one will have a word left to say to Allah Almighty.

That is why Allah Almighty will take the holy nights and festival days, all people's dealings with one another, their dialogue, as witnesses of Islam for other people, that is, for people with other so-called religions. He will make the Prophet a witness over the other prophets, and the Muslim ummah a witness over the other nations. So, in order for us to live Islam well, our faith must be strong. The festive spirit, people making peace with one another, visiting relatives, and visiting relatives opens a person's insight. Allah Almighty says, if you have no one in the world to visit, visit the graves.

So at festivals, at the graves of our relatives who have died, praying for them, visiting them, saying one day we too will be gathered in the grave, in the earth, like you, we will vanish. And then when the Day of Judgement comes, Allah Almighty will again bring us out of the earth in the hereafter. Because there is a cell in a person that neither breaks, nor burns, nor disappears. Then, when the world is another world, that is, the earth another earth, and the sky another, when the earth, He says, is laid out completely flat, We will water it with a water, and that water will give that particle in a person breath and life. And just like that, down to our fingertips, we will rise from the earth like grass sprouting.

And with our souls, when He says, you come to My presence with a driver, He will settle accounts at the Supreme Court. He will take our account with us. So Allah Almighty, festivals, to remove our hurt feelings towards each other, our enmity towards one another, to bind us to one another with the chain of Islam, to let us live in a spirit of brotherhood, festivals and holy nights, He brought them about. The duty that falls on us is to know our Lord as exalted, to present our helplessness to Allah Almighty who created us from nothing, to know our Lord as great and obey Him. But we see that this obedience turns into loss. What kind of loss? Festival days turn into sin.

How? Not for everyone, of course. Because the good and the evil everyone has done, even an atom's weight, will be written down. What we want to say is this: it is a festival. At the festival we will slaughter our sacrifices. With our spouse, our friends, in a sincere spirit, embracing one another, with love and affection, we will gain a new light, a new companion on the road for living in this world. But they take the festival out of its festive spirit, they turn it into a nest of the nafs's oppression. What did you mean, Hodja? I meant this. When the festival comes, towards Allah Almighty, who made festivals obligatory, necessary for us, so that this human being, whom our Lord created as the most honourable, may live in this world of life, in bright days and in peace, we get up and, with the feelings of the nafs, take loans from banks, try to pay them back with interest, with the desires of the nafs; neither the sacrifice comes to mind, nor Allah; all he knows is, when the festival comes, if only I could go to that hotel on those days, if only I could tour around there a bit with my wife and children, so to speak, with the loan he took from the bank, going to satisfy his nafs and earning sin instead of reward, people who go into the sea stark naked, people who expose their own honour and chastity to others.

Oh no, sir, nobody looks at anybody here.

How nicely your nafs is deceiving you. How nicely Satan is deceiving you. Supposedly nobody looks at anybody. The fornication there, the adultery there, if only you knew.

So you celebrate your festival, for 3-5 days you have fun. Neither Allah comes to mind, nor the Prophet, nor the Book. When you come back, longing for that life, the view of people who think themselves enlightened, the reason those people see themselves as enlightened while living in darkness, stripping naked like this or acting outside Islam, falling into Satan's trap, seeing themselves as enlightened and not continuing their life [rightly]; if such a person examined himself in his own conscience, he is no different from people who have fallen into an inferiority complex. So, in order to keep up that lifestyle, the wife opposes her husband. Because she wants that lifestyle from him.

My situation does not allow it. Those who take loans from banks to get her money, those who pay interest there, those who cannot pay this money back and begin to separate, even going as far as divorce and ruining themselves. Well now, is this a festival? Is this what a festival has become?

Look, what does Allah Almighty, in Surah Ibrahim, say? Let us see, where is Surah Ibrahim? Let us see Surah Ibrahim.

Now, from here, let us look at Surah Ibrahim. What does it say in the verse?

Now, here we are, in the first verse, look what it says, I will read you the translation.

This Quran, by the permission of their Lord, by the permission of Allah, Allah who created the universe, the absolute owner of this universe, Allah who created us, who brought us into being from nothing, so that we live in peace, look what it says now, by the permission of their Lord, to bring people out of darkness into light, out of darkness into light, that is, onto the path of Allah, the Almighty, the Praiseworthy; it is a Book We have sent down to you, it says. That is, Allah Almighty, who gave so much of His spirit to man and created him honourable above the worlds, when He brought us into the world we were in darkness. We were in such darkness that we could not see in front of us.

To bring us into the light, to make His essence known, and so that we go on the straight path in the way of Allah and, in the hereafter, in our true homeland, live in peace, He gave us prophets and books; He sent them. What did we do? We turned our backs on the books and the prophets. May Allah protect us. And with our own reason, that limited reason, we looked down on Allah's commands. We regarded them as reactionary. The path our own reason showed, with the trap of the nafs and Satan, making the world look beautiful and dragging us into a swamp, in this swamp which we think is life, living in unrest and in a state of not knowing ourselves, is that not living in darkness?

If we use our reason, if we act by Allah's command, Allah Almighty, who gave us food, drink and life from nothing, when He promises Paradise, which is His promise, and Allah does not break His promise, if we show loyalty on the path of Allah, if we know the festival as a festival and slaughter our sacrifices, and give our meat to those who cannot, saying they are our brothers, if we help them, for the sake of Allah, according to the verse in which He says that Allah's servants, those who say Allah and know Allah as one, those who are Muslim, are brothers, if the brothers carried one another, and lived in this festive state, with zeal and peace in the world, would that not be possible?

It would, but a person's nafs is his own enemy, it does not let go of him. So let us know the festival as a festival. Let us act on the path of Allah, let us carry on. According to the verse in which He says every soul will taste death, and the inheritance of the heavens and the earth will remain to Allah, we cannot own anything in the world; carrying everything we have as a trust, and taking that load to be ours, regarding what Allah created as our own and not looking after those in need, and remaining under the sin of that load, will it not, in the hereafter, ruin us?

Our Lord says, you cannot spend everything you earn. Give one fortieth as zakat, He says. If your means allow, when Abraham took his son Ishmael to be sacrificed, Allah Almighty sent Abel's sacrifice as a ransom for the life of Ishmael, and these sacrifices we slaughter as a ransom for our lives, did we begrudge them to Allah, that we turned our backs? And taking the festival not as a festival but as worldly pleasure of the nafs, running off here and there, both making ourselves live in darkness and falling into sin, living by a rule, a life outside Allah's command, and ruining our hereafter.

And for people who see themselves as clever, is this the state of a clever person? A clever person is one who thinks of his future. The one who arranges his conduct accordingly, who makes his plans accordingly, is such a person. A person sets up his future. Just as when you grow old in the world, you say, sir, these are my rents, or these are my Lord's trust given to me, I will get by with these, and make preparations for your future, your real future is your reward in the hereafter, in the presence of Allah. If you can earn that, even though you cannot own anything in the world, because we will leave the world empty-handed.

We will go before our Lord only with the sins and good deeds we have done. What did we say? We said it a little earlier, in the verse before. Every soul will taste death. The inheritance of the heavens and the earth will remain to Allah. Because Allah will take what Allah created. But He will give us nothing here; He will give in the hereafter. And if we can enter Paradise, the houses, the palaces, the mansions, the estates that Allah Almighty will give us there, once and for all, when He gives these to you, Allah does not take back what He gives. That is not befitting His glory. Then it is yours.

But if you go to Allah as a rebel, as a rebel this time you earn Hell. This time too, once He gives you that place, He does not take it back.

Except for those who go to the hereafter as Muslims and will enter Hell. Because the light of faith in them will save them there from the torment of Hell. That is, it will save them from the fire. Because, figuratively, there is a saying like this. The fire says this to Allah Almighty. The light of faith of this servant of Yours is lightening my fire; take him away from me, it will say. Yes.

That will correspond to this verse. Now.

Look.

Al Imran, in the 131st verse of the surah, our Lord says this.

First let me read you the 130th verse. O you who believe! Do not consume interest multiplied many times over. Fear Allah so that you may prosper. Guard yourselves against the fire prepared for the disbelievers, it says. Guard yourselves against the fire that has been prepared for the disbelievers. Obey Allah and His Messenger so that you may be shown mercy, it says.

Now, a person has a period of ignorance. He may live through a period of ignorance.

And Allah Almighty is At-Tawwab. He is the one who accepts repentance abundantly.

So Allah Almighty, with His attribute At-Tawwab, if a person repents, that is, my Lord, I followed my nafs, I followed Satan, until today I lived by the desires of my nafs. But I have understood that this world is transient. There is One who created us. That Creator will call us to account. He is also the owner of these worlds. So, forgive me for the sins I have committed against You. I promise You. From now on I will obey Your command as far as my mind can grasp. I will not go down wrong paths; when he says this and asks Allah Almighty for forgiveness, then when Allah Almighty forgives you, peace comes to your heart.

Your insight opens.

You see the abyss between the one who lives by his nafs and those who obey Allah. Then you hold on to Islam even more beautifully, and you find that above even those who have always lived Islam you reach a state. Allah loves His servants very much. While they live out their right to life, He always shows them the right paths. And since He created the mind incomplete, a person makes mistakes with his mind. When he realises he has made a mistake and turns to Allah, then both the person's rank rises and, knowing his own helplessness, holding Allah Almighty as exalted and great and taking refuge in Him, it pleases Allah Almighty and He raises your rank.

Allah Almighty is with the servants He created. He is present and watching everywhere. Yes. So from now on, what happened, happened. If we keep living the past, we will be uneasy in the future. Draw a line through what we did in the past, leave it further behind, say it was in darkness, and just as you cannot see anything in the dark, if you wipe away what you did like that, and from then on turn to the truth, return to Allah and go on the straight path, you build up both your world and your hereafter. Yes, let us know the value of festivals. Festivals are festivals of brotherhood. They are festivals of unity and togetherness.

Yes, may my Lord, for all of us, that, while living the life of this world, with a blessed life, in peace, until we pass on to the hereafter, on the straight path, as servants to Allah Almighty and as the ummah of His Beloved, grant that we live. And, God willing, if we go on like this, that is, devoted to Allah, that is, with love, with the love of Allah, and with the reckoning we will face before our eyes, knowing our helplessness before Allah's majesty, living in obedience to Him, and the Messenger of the Almighty, the Seal of the Prophets, Muhammad (peace be upon him), being "wa ma arsalnaka illa rahmatan lil-alamin", coming as a mercy to the worlds, telling people the truth and Islam, fulfilling the duty Allah Almighty gave him, and wearing himself out explaining it so that we would enter the straight path, if we carry on our lives sending blessings and peace on him too, with love and attachment, we will become the sultans of the hereafter.

That is, Allah Almighty does not say, earn and give it to Me. What He is preparing for us there!

I am already calling out to those who think it is life, who think they are living, while living in a swamp.

If you turn to the truth, if you obey; many people see Muslims like this. They say they live like a weed.

Those very people whose life he calls a weed's life have found peace in their hearts.

In the 35th verse of Surah An-Nur, they have won their Lord's love, and He has put His light in their hearts. That light, He says, is lit from olive oil, almost, He says, a light that will catch fire without a spark, and the shadow of neither the east nor the west falls on it, He says. That is, the sun rises from the east; it refers to outward knowledge. The sun sets in the west; that refers to superstitions. And neither the shadow of that knowledge nor that falsehood, He says, can affect it in any way. Because they are people whom Allah Almighty brought out of darkness into light by opening that person's insight.

You come to those states. We come to those states.

What each person earns, what each person earns with his two hands, is his own. But Allah Almighty says in His verse that if there is a Muslim at one end of the world and a Muslim at the other end, they are brothers. So a brother, the proverb says this: A brother throws his brother but holds him at the cliff's edge. So in the verse Allah Almighty says, enjoin what is right, He says. What does this mean? Remind those going on that crooked path of Allah's commands.

Among them there are also those who will return to the truth. Just as a wind carries a seed to a flower and pollinates it, they too return to Islam, they come back. And since you were the cause of this, you earn reward. Allah Almighty says this in His verse. If only there had been among you those who tell the truth, He says. See, the verses confirm one another beautifully. Enjoining what is right, and those who tell the truth among those people, who tell people the truth, will surely be there, and by these people carrying out Allah's commands, both the people sunk in the wreck will find life through Allah's verses, and that person will throw a lasso to the one who has sunk in the wreck and will have rescued him from there.

So, by our being causes for one another, by Allah Almighty creating us and by our rescuing one another, carrying one another, we will attain Allah's mercy, God willing. Yes, since there is no god but Allah, since He is one in His essence and the owner of this absolute universe, we must fear Allah very much. Indeed, in a verse He says this. If there is anyone to be feared most, it is Me. And in another verse He says, if there is anyone to be loved most, it is Me too. Of course, Allah, our Lord, has such servants that when they say Allah, tears come from their eyes.

He has such ascetic servants who tell people Allah's command.

Yes.

What I will say is this: Allah's festival, the mercy of those days of pardon and forgiveness He has given us, let us not turn it into a calamity, into oppression. Let us know festivals as festivals. Let us obey our Lord.

Let us not be with the servants who rebel against Allah, with the covenants they gave, let us not be together with them. Because in a verse our Lord also says this. Whoever envies them is like them, He says. So at festivals like these, if someone, with the feelings of the nafs, undresses stark naked like this here and there and ruins himself, even non-Muslims, undressing like this, have realised that it does them no good, and many of them have covered up. But they carry on with immorality. At least they are covered. And ours strip stark naked and think themselves enlightened. These are people who have fallen into an inferiority complex.

Woman is the crown on the heads of our men, of men who know Allah. Allah Almighty has placed the woman under the protection of the man. But neither does that man know his manhood and protect the woman, nor does the woman know her womanhood and obey that man. So the verse "men are guardians and in charge over women" they have thrown behind them. Both men and women. We do not know our religion.

We do not live Islam merely by saying La ilaha illallah. And in the end, where he will go is unknown. How he will go is unknown too. Allah Almighty, in His mercy, to light the way for His servants, has set such beautiful holy nights, has set festivals. And so, lighting our way as brothers, carrying one another, so that we go on the straight path, He created days. We still separate and cannot return to Allah's path. God willing, as I said a moment ago, we will repent, leave the past in the darkness and erase it, with our future bright, with Allah's light, every day of ours living by our Lord's command, in peace, completing our life in our world and going to the hereafter, may our Lord grant it to all of us, to all Muslims, and make it easy.

Again, may your festival be blessed. May my Lord, for the whole ummah of Muhammad, grant healing to the sick, and to those in debt the paying of their debts, and grant that we, in peace, completing our lives, reach Allah.

There is a question here. A guest asks. He says, peace be upon you, sir, and and upon you be peace. "All the fine deeds of the people have come to nothing. Fine deeds. Have come to nothing. They have perished in the face of denying Allah." Does this fully convey the meaning? It conveys it exactly as you say. Exactly as you say. Pay attention to the verse. Look what it says. All the fine deeds of the people have come to nothing. Why? They have come to nothing.

Allah Almighty: I was a hidden treasure. I wished to be known. Do you know what a hidden treasure is? The treasure of knowledge, knowledge. It is not as when we say treasure and gold, silver and money come to mind.

When one says treasure, the treasure that created those too is the treasure of knowledge. So, He is one in His essence, and He willed to be known. And from His light He created the Prophet (peace be upon him). Since he was the first created, He created the worlds from his light. That is why Allah Almighty, as "wa ma arsalnaka illa rahmatan lil-alamin", sent him into the world. And He created the world from his light too. Then He gave him of His spirit. Of His spirit. From the spirit of the first created He created the spirits of the prophets. And from the spirits of the prophets He created the spirits of their peoples.

Look what it says here now.

Let us see.

Look now, what does it say here, in Surah Al Imran, the 81st verse; some ask, they say, Hodja, does it say in the verse, they say, that Allah, from the Prophet's spirit, created the other prophets? Look what it says here now, we will open this; when Allah, from the prophets, after I have given you the Book and wisdom, from the prophets, it says, look, people had not yet been created, that is, from the peoples of the prophets, their peoples had not been created, only the prophets had been created. What does it say, look? When Allah, from the prophets, after I have given you the Book and wisdom, this is Surah Al Imran, the 81st noble hadith.

when a prophet comes confirming what is with you, after you, that is, when I send you a prophet, so, you will certainly help him. Do you affirm this?

Do you take on this covenant of Mine? Whom is He asking? The prophets, the prophets. People had not yet been created, look. That is, people had not yet been created from their spirits. Just as, judge by yourself, in you there is a part from our Lord. You get married, children come from you. Children. In the same way Allah Almighty derives them from the spirit of the Prophet.

The prophets, however many prophets were to come.

When I said, do you affirm this, do you take on this covenant of Mine, we accept, they answered. Thereupon Allah said, then bear witness. And I am among the witnesses with you, He said, I am among those who bear witness, He said, it says. So people sometimes ask this question.

There are many more secrets to be told here. But the Prophet says this. Speak according to the capacity of people's minds, he says.

It is not possible for a person to drink a jug of water at once. A jug. You will drink five litres at once. Or you will drink ten litres at once. Say this has gone beyond a jug, a canister of water. But if you drink it glass by glass, sip by sip, you can drink it. Over time. That is why there are some words. They are said, saying them, we say them too, among people who have reached that level, we say them.

So, people many things mix up with one another and try to explain them in a muddled way.

So when I say, since Allah Almighty created us for His essence to be known and gave us a part of His spirit and created us as the noblest of creation, some say, this man is saying that man, by his creation as a human, you know, in the verse, the Children of Israel, He says, I created you honourable above the worlds, so this is the word of Zionism. They see themselves as very superior. And we say that man is honourable above the worlds because he is human. And he takes this word of mine in this way. However he takes it, whatever his Turkish is, about one people he says it is. Whereas the word is general, he says.

Good Lord.

What are we saying here? By being created as human; the Israelites too were created as human.

The French too, the Germans, the English, however many people there are in the world, all of them were created as human. How do you single this out? How do you understand this? That He said to the Children of Israel, I have made you honourable above the worlds by your creation as human, you take it as being about one land, in that understanding, its meaning that way you state. All people, all people are meant here. If I said, the French or the English, by being created as human, are honourable above the worlds, is this only for them? Are only they human? Are we animals? Us. Allah Almighty says it according to the deeds they were doing at that time.

As a reminder, to remind them of His greatness and of their helplessness, He says this. No, I have proofs on this matter. Yes, I am keeping them.

Now we have stretched the subject a bit here. All the fine deeds of the people have come to nothing, it says; that is correct. Look what it says: all the fine deeds people have done; it does not say their sins. The fine deeds, your good deeds, have come to nothing, but your sin remains; according to that sin, not one world, not two worlds, even if it were a thousand worlds, because you denied Allah, all the fine deeds you have done have come to nothing; fine deeds, yes, but this life He gave you, creating you close to His essence, because of the spirit He gave you, your rebellion against Allah Almighty, and for not recognising Him, turning your back on Him in the face of these blessings He gave you, He will give your punishment in Hell.

Yes. The fine deeds are gone. What is a fine deed? Good deeds. Whatever you do. Your whole aim was to know your Lord. La ilaha illallah, Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. If you do not recognise Allah, if you say you know Allah, but take Jesus, Ezra to be His son, may Allah protect us, Mary to be His wife, have you recognised Allah, have you known Him? Did Allah create you for that?

Look now, all these magnetic or anti-magnetic substances, anti-magnetic or magnetic, that is, mountains, stones, whatever has been created from the atom to the globe, all were created within a frequency. And all of them, within the nuclei of their atoms, by the plus and minus nuclei revolving around one another's axis, remember Allah Almighty. What does Allah Almighty say in His verse? To confirm what I am saying I am quoting the verse. The heavens and the earth and what is between them know the remembrance of their Lord. What does this verse mean? All the magnetic or anti-magnetic, whatever has been created from the atom to the globe, within their nuclei, as the plus and minus nuclei revolve around one another's axis, they remember one of Allah's names.

Why did He create it like this? Why does He make His essence remembered? Let me tell you. A factory invents a product and takes out its patent; this product is the product of such and such a factory; nobody can deny it, that is, its origin; the owner of this is this factory, so it takes out its patent. And Allah Almighty, by making all this creation He created remember His essence, signifies that there is no other god besides Him, La ilaha illallah.

And everything created is His. Whatever He created from the atom to the globe, by its remembering its Lord, Allah Almighty explains His creation to people in this way. But a person reads and passes by. He does not understand. Are there none who understand? There are. But they are very rare. Yes. So all the fine deeds they have done; look, it says fine deeds. What is a fine deed? Good deeds. The good deeds came to nothing. Do as much as you like.

What more could He say? But in return for My creating you from nothing, My giving you a life, My providing you with all provisions, in return for eating and drinking what I gave you, living by it and enjoying yourself, today here, He says, the punishment for denying Me. For the evil you did, Allah Almighty, "a-laysa Allahu bi-ahkami l-hakimin", the Judge of judges, will call him to account. Let us read on and see what else it says. It has perished in the face of denying Allah. It says rightly, but the fine deeds perished. Look, at the start it says fine deeds. Sir, does it fully convey the meaning, he says.

I explained it. It conveys it. When one says come to nothing, there is no being as if it had not been, not done. That is wrong. It is not as if it had not been done. Look, what does it say? All the fine deeds they did. All the fine deeds they did. That is, they want reward. They want reward too. They help too. They help people. They do useful work.

They advance technology and serve people. Fine deeds. What happens? However much he does. Denying the one Allah: not one world, not two worlds, even if it were a thousand worlds, it is of no benefit.

Well, you talk about it being of no benefit; is there a verse on that? The verses I speak of all correspond to this verse, and also Allah Almighty says this in His verse.

All the fine deeds they did, as long as they deny Allah, have been done away with. Fine deeds. That is, the good deeds, and the sins. His good deeds; his sins will remain. Sins: for the provision He gave, for the life He created, and for giving him such superhuman honour, those who rebel against Allah without using their reason, they will suffer the consequence. But your denying the one Allah, just one thing. Even if there were thousands of worlds, all these are fine deeds. They came to nothing.

It has perished in the face of denying Allah, it says. All the fine things they did have come to nothing. It has perished in the face of denying Allah. The fine deeds perished and are gone. Correct. Does the meaning fully convey it, he wonders. It does. All of it is gone. "To nothing. When one says came to nothing, meaning as if it had not been, not done, could there be an injustice involved?" No. Because he did do it. Look, he said these words because he did not understand this part. Otherwise it does not say, for example, that people have no empty deeds, that is, no fine deeds; or that it is not in return for fine deeds.

But what does it say? All the fine deeds they did came to nothing. Fine deeds, good deeds, came to nothing. Against what? Against denying Allah. But for feeding him and giving him drink, sir, for the provision He gave him, He will ask him to account.

Could there be an injustice, as in its meaning, he asks. He is asking, indeed. No. Instead, it has been rendered void. That is the same. Whether it came to nothing or it was rendered void. Look, even better. It has been rendered void. That is, what they did was rendered void. Or it came to nothing. It says the fine deeds they did. Both correspond to fine deeds. Rendered void or came to nothing. Both mean the same anyway.

"When it says came to nothing, as in Surah Al-A'raf 147, as if it vanished all at once, would it not seem to contradict the verse on an atom's weight of evil and good?" It would not. If you fully understand the word said at the very beginning, you will grasp it very well. All the fine deeds of the people have come to nothing. Their evil deeds remain. He will give account for them. "Fa-man ya'mal mithqala dharratin khayran yarah." All the atom's weights you did were written and erased. Against what? Against your denying Allah. They were erased. Then they came to nothing. However much you do, it is of no benefit.

It does not mean he did not do them. "Whereas, the one placed on the scale pan, placed and placed, if there were a word like rendered void. The word habita has the meaning of becoming useless. Instead of came to nothing, has become useless." When it says has become useless, that too is the same thing. Not taken into account, useless. Good for nothing, throw it away, in the rubbish, useless because harmful. Even if you do not call it harmful, useless. Good for nothing. If something is good for nothing, do you keep it? No. "Would it not convey it better if it said, the good deeds he did?" The meaning. Well, if you open it up, this last word could be like this.

All the fine deeds of the people, in brackets, since it means the same, good deeds, have come to nothing. And at the end you say that. What can I say? Would it not convey the meaning better if it said, the good deeds he did? That is the same thing. You would be repeating the same word a second time in brackets, in brackets. Yes. I suppose nobody else has a question.

And it is already close to 8 o'clock. Yes. God willing, the whole ummah of Muhammad, our children, our relatives, our friends, all our brothers in the Islamic world, with long, blessed lives, by the commands of Allah and His Messenger, by Allah's command and by the Sunnah His Messenger showed us, living the religion of Islam, with a peaceful life, in health and well-being, in peace in the family, may our Lord grant that we live so until the end of our lives and make it easy. And may He join us to the servants who are welcomed with smiling faces in the hereafter. For the sake of Allah Almighty, Al-Fatiha.

Amin, ya Rabb al-alamin.
