Yunus 72: If you turn away (know that); No reward I have asked from you. My reward belongs to no one, but Allah and I was Commanded to be of the Muslims.

In verse 72 of Surah Yunus: "If you turn away, I have not asked you for any wage anyway," it says. Yes, we say so too; we explain the truth.

I, whatever is made known to me by inspiration, just as it is, to you am obliged to explain. Whatever feelings are given. In his time, in Mecca the Honored, serving as muezzin, a respected gentleman marries our student's older sister.

And he comes to Turkey.

He attended our lessons several times.

To me, exactly like this, he used to say: "Hodja, no one can be as generous as you. Hodja, no one can be so generous." He used to say. And I told him: I am obliged to explain. As long as I explain. You feel what I explain. Make it your own. Make it your own. Tell it to people. Let it be heard. We did not come out of a passion to be leaders. We came to explain Allah's verses. We came to remove superstitions from the religion. We will explain generously. Those who take from us, whether they make it their own or not, let them explain, let them explain the truth, and let it spread, and let falsehoods leave the religion.

This is our duty. Yes.

"If you turn away, I have not asked you for any wage anyway. My reward is due from none but Allah. And I have been commanded to be among the Muslims," it says.

How was he commanded? Allah Almighty, from the soul of Habib-i Kibriya, the Seal of the Prophets, Muhammad, our master, those He first created, the prophets, and

He made a covenant with them: to you - when I send you to a prophet as a helper, when I send you to your peoples, (?) do you take on this heavy burden, He says. They say yes. "I too am among the witnesses with you," He says. The first created; no other humans had been created yet. So Allah's witnessing: the first created - I was commanded to be a Muslim, he says. That is the covenant I gave, he says. Yes, I consented to that command of my Lord, he says. I became one of the Muslims, he says. After that, when the souls of the peoples were created from their souls, they all became the elders and fathers of the peoples.

In this case, would a father not help his child? If the father is strong, of course he will gather his children under his own strength. So the prophets too, toward their people, in explaining Allah's verses and inviting them to the truth are obliged. Because a father does not want them to go astray. Yes. Although Noah (peace be upon him) explained so many truths to his people, his people turned away from him.

Thereupon: "For explaining the truths to you and inviting you to salvation I have not asked you for any wage," he says. I have not asked. My reward and recompense come from Allah, the Lord of the worlds. I trust in Him alone and rely on Him. Yes.

I always trust only in Allah. And I rely on Allah. On earth I have had no friend. I am always with Allah.

And I always say this: Hasbünallâhu ve ni'mel vekîl, ni'mel mevlâ ve ni'me'n- nasîr. What an excellent Master, what an excellent support, what an excellent friend, he says. Yes.

Whoever is with Him is never a stranger. Whoever is with Him is never alone, whoever is with Him is never without anyone. As long as one is with Him. A person's light (?), he says. Yes.

"O people! There is no god but Allah.

What you worship are lifeless things Allah created. They can bring themselves neither benefit nor harm. That Allah is the Lord of the worlds" - although he said this, the people paid no heed to Noah's words.

They turned their backs and left. Indeed, as Noah lived among his people for a long time, from father to son (?): this man does not die. Don't believe his words, they said. Yes. Before coming to verse 73
