   إِنَّ الْحَمْدَ لِلَّهِ نَحْمَدُهُ تَعَالَى وَنَسْتَعِينُهُ وَنَسْتَغْفِرُهُ

   Zaista, hvala pripada Allahu; Njega Uzvišenog hvalimo, od Njega pomoć tražimo i od Njega oprost molimo.

2. 0:41

   وَنَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ شُرُورِ أَنْفُسِنَا وَمِنْ سَيِّئَاتِ أَعْمَالِنَا، مَنْ يَهْدِهِ اللَّهُ فَلَا مُضِلَّ لَهُ، وَمَنْ يُضْلِلْهُ فَلَا هَادِيَ لَهُ

   Utječemo se Allahu od zla naših duša i od naših loših djela. Koga Allah uputi, njega niko ne može zavesti, a koga On ostavi u zabludi, njega niko ne može uputiti.

3. 0:52

   وَأَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ سَيِّدَنَا وَنَبِيَّنَا مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَحَبِيبُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ

   Svjedočim da nema boga osim Allaha, Jedinog, Koji nema sudruga, i svjedočim da je naš prvak i vjerovjesnik Muhammed Njegov rob, miljenik i poslanik.

4. 1:02

   أَرْسَلَهُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى بِالْهُدَى وَدِينِ الْحَقِّ لِيُظْهِرَهُ عَلَى الدِّينِ كُلِّهِ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْكَافِرُونَ فَصَلَوَاتُ رَبِّي وَسَلَامُهُ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَمَنْ سَارَ عَلَى نَهْجِهِ وَاقْتَفَى أَثَرَهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الدِّينِ

   Allah, Blagoslovljeni i Uzvišeni, poslao ga je s uputom i pravom vjerom da je uzdigne iznad svih vjera, makar to bilo mrsko nevjernicima. Neka su salavati i selami moga Gospodara na njega i na njegovu porodicu i ashabe i na one koji idu njegovim putem i slijede njegove stope do Sudnjeg dana.

5. 1:16

   رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَيْهِمْ أَجْمَعِينَ فَأَمَّا بَعْدُ

   Neka je Allahovo zadovoljstvo na nama i na svima njima. A zatim:

6. 1:20

   Poštovana braćo, cijenjeni mu'mini! Najvažniji ibadet koji je Uzvišeni Allah, subhanehu ve te'ala, propisao svojim robovima jeste namaz.

7. 1:37

   Namaz je stub vjere, namaz je glavni simbol po kojem se prepoznaju muslimani, namaz je suština pokornosti, odanosti i zahvalnosti Uzvišenom Allahu, subhanehu ve te'ala.

8. 1:59

   Namaz je nešto bez čega vjera maltene ne može da postoji kod čovjeka, kod pojedinca i zajednice. O važnosti i aspektima bitnosti namaza može se mnogo govoriti.

9. 2:16

   Danas želim da bacim svjetlo samo na jedan aspekt važnosti namaza, koliko je Uzvišeni Allah, subhanehu ve te'ala, uzdigao ovaj ibadet. A to je činjenica da je namaz bio propisan svakom Allahovom poslaniku.

10. 2:37

    Dakle, namaz je bio obaveza i farz svakom Allahovom poslaniku, od Adema, alejhis-salatu ves-selam, do Muhammeda, alejhis-salatu ves-selam. To govori o važnosti namaza, a da bismo shvatili zašto je namaz toliko bitan, moramo razumjeti našu potrebu za namazom.

11. 3:07

    Gospodar svih svjetova je ganijjun anil-alemin, neovisan o svim svjetovima i o svim stvorenjima. On je, dželle ve ala, savršen i potpun, ali namaz je naša korist. Plemeniti, Mudri i Milostivi Stvoritelj je propisao namaz zbog nas samih, jer to je hrana za našu dušu i za naša srca, i nemoguće je da duša i tijelo postignu smiraj i pravi balans i pravu skrušenost bez suštinskog obavljanja namaza i potpune prisutnosti u namazu.

12. 3:53

    Uzvišeni Allah na mnogim mjestima u Kur'anu spominje da je naredio svojim poslanicima da obavljaju namaz. Pa govoreći o Junusu, alejhis-selam, kaže… Junus, alejhis-selam, koji se našao u trbuhu kita, kojeg je kit progutao – priča spomenuta u Kur'anu.

13. 4:20

    Kaže Allah: da on nije bio od onih koji Allaha veličaju… Kaže Ibn Abbas: da nije bio od klanjača. Da on nije obavljao namaz, ostao bi tu do Sudnjeg dana. Zbog namaza ga je Allah, subhanehu, tada spasio. Namaz je štit, namaz čuva čovjeka.

14. 4:42

    Namaz te povezuje za najčvršći oslonac i najčvršću snagu i energiju, a to je Uzvišeni Allah, subhanehu ve te'ala. Ibrahim, alejhis-salatu ves-selam, kada je došao u Mekku, bila je pustinja, ništa nije bilo u Mekki.

15. 5:01

    Ostavio je svoju hanumu Hadžeru i Ismaila i okrenuo se; kada se popeo na brdašce u blizini Mekke – a Mekka je sva u brdima bila – počeo je Allaha, dželle ve ala, da moli: „Rabbena inni eskentu min zurrijjeti bi vadin gajri zi zer'in inde bejtikel-muharrem.“

16. 5:21

    Gospodaru dragi, ja sam nastanio dio svoga potomstva u ovoj dolini u kojoj ništa ne niče, kod Tvoje kuće, to jeste pored Ka'be – jer Ka'ba je postojala i prije Ibrahima, ali su joj temelji bili izgubljeni.

17. 5:39

    „Gospodaru dragi, da bi obavljali namaz.“ Pogledajte: prvu stvar koju spominje Ibrahim, alejhis-selam, jeste da njegovo potomstvo obavlja namaz. A kada je spomenuo Ismaila, alejhis-selam,

18. 5:58

    Uzvišeni Allah, dželle šanuhu, kaže: Ismail je naređivao svojoj porodici da obavljaju namaz. Djecu i porodicu treba podučavati da namaz obavljaju. I trebamo se truditi da u kući obavljamo namaz u džematu.

19. 6:17

    Ismail je ustrajavao u naređivanju namaza svojoj familiji i svojoj djeci. A Ishak – kada Allah govori o Ishaku, kaže: „Naredili smo im da čine dobra djela, da obavljaju namaz.“

20. 6:35

    Ishak, alejhis-selam, Ibrahimov, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem, sin. Zamislite Musaa, alejhis-selam, jednog od pet najodabranijih poslanika. Musa je nevjerovatan čovjek. Njegovu priču treba stalno iščitavati.

21. 6:52

    Njegova priča je kompletna. Samo je Resulullahova kompletnija priča od njegove. Jer je on bio i suprug, i učitelj, i državnik, i vojskovođa, lider. Zato je njegova priča… i borac na Allahovom, dželle ve ala, putu. Zato je njegova priča toliko puta,

22. 7:11

    na desetine puta spomenuta u Kur'anu. Zamislite moment: Musa, alejhis-selam… Kako je počašćen? Da razgovara sa Allahom, subhanehu ve te'ala, da razgovara sa Gospodarom svih svjetova. Kada bi nekome od nas bila data prilika da razgovara sa nekim kraljem, sa imperatorom, sa predsjednikom najjače države, pripremali bismo se.

23. 7:30

    Kako ćemo da se obučemo, kako ćemo da [nejasno], da se odjenemo? Ovo je razgovor sa Gospodarom svih svjetova. I znate li šta mu je Allah prvo rekao?

24. 7:39

    فَاسْتَمِعْ لِمَا يُوحَىٰ ۝ إِنَّنِي أَنَا اللَّهُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا أَنَا فَاعْبُدْنِي وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ لِذِكْرِي

    „…pa slušaj ono što ti se objavljuje: ‘Ja sam, zaista, Allah, nema boga osim Mene, zato Me obožavaj i namaz obavljaj da bi Me se sjećao.’“ (Ta-Ha, 13–14)

25. 7:46

    „Slušaj dobro, Musa: la ilahe illallah – nema istinskog božanstva osim Mene. Obožavaj Me i obavljaj namaz,

26. 7:58

    obavljaj namaz da bi Me spominjao“, kaže Allah Musau, alejhis-salatu ves-selam. Kada je Davud napravio grešku, pa je presudio između dvojice bez da sasluša jednog i drugog, vidio je da je pogriješio.

27. 8:14

    I šta je uradio? Šta je uradio? Rekao je: „Estagfirullah“, počeo je… potrčao je [nejasno] namaz. Pohrlio je da se spusti Allahu na sedždu i da učini prije toga ruku'.

28. 8:35

    I Resulullah, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem: „Iza hazebehu emrun fezi'a ilas-salah.“ Kada bi Resulullahu, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem, teško bilo, u najtežim momentima on bi ustao da klanja namaz. Ustao bi da klanja namaz.

29. 8:53

    Obavezni ili dobrovoljni, dva rekata. Tu utjehu traži. Tu crpi energiju i snagu. Allahu se obrati na sedždi. Njemu reci šta ti treba. Od Njega traži. Jer si sa Allahom najjači.

30. 9:11

    A bez Njegove podrške i pomoći mi zaista ništa ne možemo. I Allaha molite za sve, i Njemu se na sedždi obraćaj za sve svoje potrebe. Kada je Sulejman, alejhis-selam… ništa su vladari danas u odnosu na Sulejmana, alejhis-selam, kakav je to bio vladar.

31. 9:32

    Allah mu je potčinio cijelu zemlju, Allah mu je vjetar potčinio, i ljude i džinne, sve je bilo u vlasti Sulejmana, alejhis-selam. A za šta je on vlast koristio? Vlast se koristi radi istine i dobra, radi vođenja ljudi i čovječanstva ka dobru, radi pribavljanja ili dostavljanja koristi ljudima i da zaštitiš ljude od štete.

32. 10:03

    To je bio Sulejman, alejhis-selam. Politika i vlast treba da bude u službi istine i očuvanja vjere. Ako nije, onda je to poremećaj. I onda nastaje haos, kao što smo svjedoci svega toga.

33. 10:22

    On je volio konje. I jedno popodne, nakon podne-namaza, tražio je da mu se izvedu svi konji. Možete zamisliti kakvi su to bili konji – posebno u tom dijelu arapski konji su poznati. I on je uživao u predstavi te svoje moći, snage i tako dalje.

34. 10:42

    I zaboravio je da klanja ikindiju-namaz. Nenamjerno je propustio ikindiju-namaz. I Allah, dželle ve ala… jedan namaz. Allah, dželle ve ala, onda spominje u Kur'anu šta je on uradio sa tim konjima: „Fetafika meshan bis-suki vel-a'nak.“

35. 11:01

    „Rudduha alejje, fetafika meshan bis-suki vel-a'nak.“ Vratite mi te konje, sve ih je [nejasno], sve ih je zaklao. Jer ono što te odvraća od Allahovog, dželle ve ala, puta, ono što te odvraća od namaza, u tome nema hajra. Nemoj da dozvoliš ništa, ili ničemu, i nikome da te odvraća od namaza.

36. 11:20

    Allah, dželle ve ala, kaže: „La tulhikum emvalukum ve la evladukum an zikrillah.“ Nemoj da dozvoliš da vas vaša djeca i vaši imeci odvraćaju od Allahovog puta. Ako porodica odvraća od Allahovog puta, onda oni nisu podrška, oni su neprijatelji. Oni su neprijatelji.

37. 11:38

    Pogledajte [nejasno]: da, moć; da, vlast; da, imetak; da, blagodati; ali sve to u službi istine i dobra. I namaz da bude prvo, a onda drugo rasporedi. Braćo moja draga, svjedoci smo da nam je namaz ostao uzgredna djelatnost i aktivnost. Trčimo tamo, radimo, ispucamo četiri rekata,

38. 12:01

    kao ono gavran kljuca, prođemo, dalje da trčimo. Ne, ne, obrnuto: pripremaj se za namaz – abdestom, spominjanjem Allaha, razmišljajući o važnosti namaza, da kreneš ranije u džamiju, da staneš u saff, malo Allaha spominješ – pa ćeš vidjeti kako se to reflektira na srce. A onda će sve drugo biti još berićetnije, još bolje, to će se drugo postići, a ovo je prioritet. U Medini, Allahovog Poslanika, Muhammeda, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem, [nejasno] imam u džamiji Allahovog Poslanika, stari čovjek.

39. 12:40

    Ali je [nejasno] ikindijski farz trajao 20 minuta. Ikindijski farz trajao 20 minuta. Komentarišem sa jednim svojim kolegom i prijateljom taj namaz, i kaže: „E, to je kada ljudi shvate da je namaz na prvom mjestu, pa se onda drugo… uživaju u namazu.“

40. 13:01

    Mi moramo tražiti slast namaza. Znaš, ljudi kažu: „Pa, namaz mi je obaveza, to mora, dug je, ja to otarasim.“ Ne, ako ga otarasiš, onda je to problem. Onda je to problem. Ako ne uživaš u namazu, i ako ti nije lijepo u namazu, i ako nisi našao slast u namazu, problem si stvorio sebi i u problemu se nalaziš.

41. 13:27

    Zatim, kada je Allah govorio o Isau, alejhis-selam, Mesihu, dječaku kojeg je Allah stvorio – Merjema, najčistija, najčednija žena, kada je rodila. Merjema, čije je ime u Kur'anu spomenuto. Jedino žensko ime je Merjemino ime.

42. 13:44

    Ona je kod nas na najvećem stepenu. Niko ne poštuje više Merjemu od nas. Svi kršćani ovoga svijeta ne poštuju i ne vole više Merjemu od nas. Mi je smatramo simbolom čednosti, čestitosti, pobožnosti. Rodila je Isaa, alejhis-selam,

43. 14:00

    bez muškarca, da, to je Allahovo, dželle ve ala, određenje. I progovorio je Isa u kolijevci da im objasni da je njegova majka čista i čedna. „Kale inni abdullah“ – rekao je: „Ja sam Allahov rob.“ Atanij…

44. 14:18

    „Atanijel-kitabe ve dže'aleni nebijja.“ Allah mi je dao Knjigu i učinio me vjerovjesnikom. I naredio mi je da obavljam namaz i dajem zekat. Isa, Isa. Prva obaveza. Prva obaveza.

45. 14:33

    I govoreći o drugim vjerovjesnicima, Allah, dželle ve ala, u suri Merjem kaže, nakon što ih je detaljno spomenuo: „To su oni koje smo Mi odabrali, počastili“ – vjerovjesnici i poslanici.

46. 15:01

    Nikoga nema uglednijeg od njih. Nikoga nema uglednijeg, poštovanijeg od njih. Oni su elita. Oni su prvaci, koji su potekli iz potomstva Ademova, i koji su potekli od onih koje smo nosili na lađi sa Nuhom, iz potomstva Ibrahima i Israila – to je Jakub – i mnogi drugi koje smo Mi odabrali. To su kajmak, oni su kajmak, oni su elita, oni su najbolji. Šta su oni radili [nejasno]?

47. 15:41

    Kaže: oni, kada bi im se učili ajeti iz Kur'ana, ili općenito ajeti iz Objave, oni bi padali na sedždu i plakali bi, klanjali bi. A onda su došle generacije koje su krenule za svojim strastima i koje su izgubile namaz. Braćo moja draga, tvojim… tvojom ustrajnošću u namazu ti se svrstavaš u saff ove najveće elite, svjetske elite

48. 16:28

    kroz istoriju čovječanstva, na čijem čelu se nalazi Muhammed, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem. Sa njima staješ u saff: sa Muhammedom, Ibrahimom, Musaom, Isaom i ostalim vjerovjesnicima i poslanicima.

49. 16:43

    Najveći je bankrot, najveći je gubitak ostaviti jedan namaz, a kamoli dozvoliti da namazi onako prolaze. Ali ono što će nas učiniti da ustrajavamo u obavljanju namaza stalno, permanentno i konstantno jeste da shvatimo suštinu namaza, da razmišljaš, kad kažeš „Subhane Rabbijel-a'la“, [nejasno] šta to znači.

50. 17:08

    Neka je hvaljen moj najuzvišeniji Gospodar. Nisko se spuštaš, a uzvišenost Allaha, dželle ve ala, [nejasno]. Namaz, skrušenost u namazu, slast namaza je nešto što te uvijek tjera.

51. 17:23

    Kada to osjetiš, onda sve vojske ovoga svijeta, kada bi te tjerale da ostaviš namaz, nema šta da ga ostaviš. I naređujte namaz svojim familijama. Vi dolazite u džamiju, a ovo [nejasno]. Vama ne treba možda ovo govoriti. Ali ovo vama govorim, jer vi treba da budete daije.

52. 17:39

    Ne samo mi hodže, nego vi treba da budete daije među svojom porodicom i rodbinom. Govorite ljudima o namazu. Koliko naših ljudi klanja namaz? Koliko procenata našeg naroda klanja namaz? Dva, tri, pet – ako bi bilo, pff, to bi bilo fantastično.

53. 17:58

    Koliko ljudi džumu klanja? [nejasno] naših ljudi džumu klanja. Džumu klanja… 300 godina. Pa kreni dalje, brate. U redu, džuma, vidi dalje: pet vakata namaza. Ostale namaze [nejasno]. Koliko si hutbi čuo? Šta to znači?

54. 18:14

    Ostane ljudi hutbe [nejasno]. Muslimanski narod, 5% klanja namaz, mašaAllah, šta je to? Kada su muslimani bili ponosni, to su [nejasno]. I onda kažemo: nestalo berićeta. Pa naravno. Grijesi su ti koji [nejasno] berićet, a privlače baksuzluk.

55. 18:36

    Kada bi ranije pitali učenjake kakav je status čovjeka koji ne klanja, ovaj bi rekao: „A kako izgleda taj čovjek, musliman koji ne klanja? Ja bih volio da zamislim kako izgleda taj čovjek.“ E, da si živio, uvaženi šejhu, u naše vrijeme, vidio bi ljude koji kažu „muslimani, mašaAllah, vole Allaha i Poslanika“, a koji ne [nejasno] namaz.

56. 18:58

    Braćo moja draga, namaz je privilegija. Namaz nije teret – jeste obaveza, ali nije teret. Namaz je privilegija, namaz je počast, namaz je uzdignuće, namaz je ponos, namaz je sloboda, namaz je utjeha.

57. 19:20

    Namaz je spas, namaz je rahatluk i odmor za dušu i tijelo. Govorio je Resulullah, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem: „Bilale, prouči ikamet da klanjamo, kako bismo se odmorili.“

58. 19:35

    بَارَكَ اللَّهُ لِي وَلَكُمْ فِي الْقُرْآنِ الْعَظِيمِ وَنَفَعَنِي وَإِيَّاكُمْ بِمَا فِيهِ مِنَ الْآيَاتِ وَالذِّكْرِ الْحَكِيمِ أَقُولُ مَا تَسْمَعُونَ وَأَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ الْعَظِيمَ لِي وَلَكُمْ فَاسْتَغْفِرُوهُ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ

    Neka Allah blagoslovi mene i vas Veličanstvenim Kur’anom i neka mene i vas okoristi ajetima i mudrom opomenom koji su u njemu. Govorim ovo što čujete i molim Allaha Veličanstvenog za oprost i sebi i vama, pa i vi od Njega oprost tražite – On je, zaista, Onaj Koji prašta i Milostiv je.

1. 0:00

   إِنَّ الْحَمْدَ لِلَّهِ نَحْمَدُهُ تَعَالَى وَنَسْتَعِينُهُ وَنَسْتَغْفِرُهُ

   Indeed, all praise belongs to Allah; we praise Him, the Exalted, seek His help and ask His forgiveness.

2. 0:41

   وَنَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ شُرُورِ أَنْفُسِنَا وَمِنْ سَيِّئَاتِ أَعْمَالِنَا، مَنْ يَهْدِهِ اللَّهُ فَلَا مُضِلَّ لَهُ، وَمَنْ يُضْلِلْهُ فَلَا هَادِيَ لَهُ

   We seek refuge in Allah from the evils of our souls and from our bad deeds. Whomever Allah guides, none can lead astray, and whomever He leaves astray, none can guide.

3. 0:52

   وَأَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ سَيِّدَنَا وَنَبِيَّنَا مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَحَبِيبُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ

   I bear witness that there is no god but Allah alone, Who has no partner, and I bear witness that our master and prophet Muhammad is His servant, His beloved and His messenger.

4. 1:02

   أَرْسَلَهُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى بِالْهُدَى وَدِينِ الْحَقِّ لِيُظْهِرَهُ عَلَى الدِّينِ كُلِّهِ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْكَافِرُونَ فَصَلَوَاتُ رَبِّي وَسَلَامُهُ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَمَنْ سَارَ عَلَى نَهْجِهِ وَاقْتَفَى أَثَرَهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الدِّينِ

   Allah, Blessed and Exalted, sent him with guidance and the religion of truth to make it prevail over all religion, even if the disbelievers dislike it. May the blessings and peace of my Lord be upon him and upon his family and companions and upon those who follow his way and tread in his footsteps until the Day of Judgement.

5. 1:16

   رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى عَلَيْنَا وَعَلَيْهِمْ أَجْمَعِينَ فَأَمَّا بَعْدُ

   May the pleasure of Allah the Exalted be upon us and upon all of them. To proceed:

6. 1:20

   Respected brothers, honoured believers! The most important act of worship that Allah the Exalted, subhanahu wa ta'ala, has prescribed for His servants is the prayer, salah.

7. 1:37

   Prayer is the pillar of the religion; prayer is the main symbol by which Muslims are recognised; prayer is the essence of obedience, devotion and gratitude to Allah the Exalted, subhanahu wa ta'ala.

8. 1:59

   Prayer is something without which faith can barely exist in a person, in an individual and in a community. Much can be said about the importance of prayer and the aspects of its significance.

9. 2:16

   Today I want to shed light on just one aspect of the importance of prayer, of how highly Allah the Exalted, subhanahu wa ta'ala, has raised this act of worship. And that is the fact that prayer was prescribed for every one of Allah's messengers.

10. 2:37

    So prayer was an obligation, a fard, for every one of Allah's messengers, from Adam, alayhis-salatu was-salam, to Muhammad, alayhis-salatu was-salam. That shows the importance of prayer, and in order to understand why prayer is so important, we must understand our need for prayer.

11. 3:07

    The Lord of all the worlds is ghaniyyun 'anil-'alamin, independent of all the worlds and of all creatures. He, jalla wa 'ala, is perfect and complete, but prayer is for our benefit. The Noble, Wise and Merciful Creator prescribed prayer for our own sake, because it is food for our soul and our hearts, and it is impossible for the soul and body to attain tranquillity, true balance and true humility without performing the prayer in its essence and being fully present in the prayer.

12. 3:53

    Allah the Exalted mentions in many places in the Qur'an that He commanded His messengers to perform the prayer. Speaking about Yunus, alayhis-salam (peace be upon him), He says… Yunus, alayhis-salam, who found himself in the belly of the whale, who was swallowed by the whale – a story mentioned in the Qur'an.

13. 4:20

    Allah says: had he not been among those who glorify Allah… Ibn Abbas says: had he not been among those who pray. Had he not performed the prayer, he would have remained there until the Day of Judgement. It was because of prayer that Allah, subhanahu, saved him then. Prayer is a shield; prayer protects a person.

14. 4:42

    Prayer connects you to the firmest support and the firmest strength and energy, and that is Allah the Exalted, subhanahu wa ta'ala. When Ibrahim, alayhis-salatu was-salam, came to Mecca, it was a desert; there was nothing in Mecca.

15. 5:01

    He left his wife Hajar and Isma'il and turned away; when he climbed a small hill near Mecca – and Mecca was all hills – he began to supplicate to Allah, jalla wa 'ala: "Rabbana inni askantu min dhurriyyati bi wadin ghayri dhi zar'in 'inda baytikal-muharram."

16. 5:21

    Dear Lord, I have settled some of my offspring in this valley where nothing grows, by Your House, that is, next to the Ka'bah – for the Ka'bah existed even before Ibrahim, but its foundations had been lost.

17. 5:39

    "Dear Lord, so that they may establish the prayer." Look: the first thing Ibrahim, alayhis-salam, mentions is that his offspring should perform the prayer. And when He mentioned Isma'il, alayhis-salam,

18. 5:58

    Allah the Exalted, jalla sha'nuhu, says: Isma'il used to command his family to perform the prayer. Children and family should be taught to perform the prayer. And we should strive to perform the prayer in congregation at home.

19. 6:17

    Isma'il persisted in commanding prayer to his family and his children. And Ishaq – when Allah speaks about Ishaq, He says: "We commanded them to do good deeds and to establish the prayer."

20. 6:35

    Ishaq, alayhis-salam, the son of Ibrahim, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Imagine Musa, alayhis-salam, one of the five most chosen messengers. Musa is an incredible man. His story should be read over and over.

21. 6:52

    His story is complete. Only the story of the Messenger of Allah is more complete than his. For he was a husband, and a teacher, and a statesman, and a military commander, a leader. That is why his story… and a fighter in the way of Allah, jalla wa 'ala. That is why his story is mentioned so many times,

22. 7:11

    dozens of times in the Qur'an. Imagine the moment: Musa, alayhis-salam… How was he honoured? By speaking with Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, by speaking with the Lord of all the worlds. If any one of us were given the opportunity to speak with some king, with an emperor, with the president of the most powerful country, we would prepare ourselves.

23. 7:30

    How will we dress, how will we [unclear], what will we wear? This is a conversation with the Lord of all the worlds. And do you know what Allah said to him first?

24. 7:39

    فَاسْتَمِعْ لِمَا يُوحَىٰ ۝ إِنَّنِي أَنَا اللَّهُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا أَنَا فَاعْبُدْنِي وَأَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ لِذِكْرِي

    “…so listen to what is revealed: ‘Indeed, I am Allah; there is no god but Me, so worship Me and establish prayer for My remembrance.’” (Ta-Ha 20:13–14)

25. 7:46

    "Listen well, Musa: la ilaha illallah – there is no true deity except Me. Worship Me and establish the prayer,

26. 7:58

    establish the prayer in order to remember Me," Allah says to Musa, alayhis-salatu was-salam. When Dawud made a mistake and judged between two men without hearing both sides, he saw that he had erred.

27. 8:14

    And what did he do? What did he do? He said: "Astaghfirullah," he began… he rushed [unclear] to prayer. He hastened to go down in prostration to Allah, having first made ruku' (the bow).

28. 8:35

    And the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam (peace be upon him): "Idha hazabahu amrun fazi'a ilas-salah." Whenever things became hard for the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, in the most difficult moments he would stand up to pray. He would stand up to pray.

29. 8:53

    Obligatory or voluntary, two rak'ahs. That is where he sought comfort. That is where he drew energy and strength. Turn to Allah in prostration. Tell Him what you need. Ask of Him. For with Allah you are at your strongest.

30. 9:11

    And without His support and help we truly cannot do anything. Ask Allah for everything, and turn to Him in prostration for all your needs. When Sulayman, alayhis-salam… the rulers of today are nothing compared to Sulayman, alayhis-salam – what a ruler he was.

31. 9:32

    Allah subjected the whole earth to him, Allah subjected the wind to him, and people and jinn; everything was under the authority of Sulayman, alayhis-salam. And what did he use his authority for? Authority is used for the sake of truth and goodness, for guiding people and mankind towards goodness, for bringing or delivering benefit to people and protecting people from harm.

32. 10:03

    That was Sulayman, alayhis-salam. Politics and power should be in the service of truth and the preservation of religion. If they are not, then that is a disorder. And then chaos arises, as we are witnessing with all of this.

33. 10:22

    He loved horses. And one afternoon, after the Dhuhr prayer, he asked for all the horses to be brought out to him. You can imagine what horses they were – Arabian horses are especially famous in that region. And he was enjoying the display of his power, strength and so on.

34. 10:42

    And he forgot to pray the Asr prayer. He missed the Asr prayer unintentionally. And Allah, jalla wa 'ala… one prayer. Allah, jalla wa 'ala, then mentions in the Qur'an what he did with those horses: "Fa tafiqa mashan bis-suqi wal-a'naq."

35. 11:01

    "Rudduha 'alayya, fa tafiqa mashan bis-suqi wal-a'naq." Bring those horses back to me; all of them he [unclear], he slaughtered them all. Because whatever turns you away from the path of Allah, jalla wa 'ala, whatever turns you away from prayer, there is no khayr (good) in it. Do not allow anything, or any thing, or anyone, to turn you away from prayer.

36. 11:20

    Allah, jalla wa 'ala, says: "La tulhikum amwalukum wa la awladukum 'an dhikrillah." Do not let your children and your wealth divert you from the path of Allah. If the family diverts you from the path of Allah, then they are not a support; they are enemies. They are enemies.

37. 11:38

    Look [unclear]: yes, power; yes, authority; yes, wealth; yes, blessings; but all of it in the service of truth and goodness. And let prayer come first, and then arrange everything else. My dear brothers, we are witnesses to prayer having become a side activity for us. We run around, we work, we fire off four rak'ahs,

38. 12:01

    like a crow pecking, we get through it and keep on running. No, no, it is the other way round: prepare yourself for prayer – with wudu (ablution), with remembrance of Allah, reflecting on the importance of prayer, setting off for the mosque earlier, standing in the row, remembering Allah a little – and you will see how that is reflected in the heart. And then everything else will be even more blessed, even better; the other things will be achieved, but this is the priority. In Medina, the Messenger of Allah, Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, [unclear] an imam in the mosque of the Messenger of Allah, an old man.

39. 12:40

    But [unclear] the fard of Asr lasted 20 minutes. The fard of Asr lasted 20 minutes. I was discussing that prayer with a colleague and friend of mine, and he said: "Well, that is when people understand that prayer comes first, and then the other things… they enjoy the prayer."

40. 13:01

    We must seek the sweetness of prayer. You know, people say: "Well, prayer is an obligation for me, it has to be done, it's a debt, I get it over with." No, if you just get it over with, then that is a problem. Then that is a problem. If you do not enjoy the prayer, and if you do not feel good in the prayer, and if you have not found sweetness in the prayer, you have created a problem for yourself and you are in a problem.

41. 13:27

    Then, when Allah spoke about Isa, alayhis-salam, the Messiah, the boy whom Allah created – Maryam, the purest, most chaste woman, when she gave birth. Maryam, whose name is mentioned in the Qur'an. The only female name is the name of Maryam.

42. 13:44

    For us she is at the highest rank. No one respects Maryam more than we do. All the Christians of this world do not respect and love Maryam more than we do. We regard her as the symbol of chastity, virtue and piety. She gave birth to Isa, alayhis-salam,

43. 14:00

    without a man, yes, that is the decree of Allah, jalla wa 'ala. And Isa spoke in the cradle to explain to them that his mother was pure and chaste. "Qala inni 'abdullah" – he said: "I am the servant of Allah." Ataniy…

44. 14:18

    "Ataniyal-kitaba wa ja'alani nabiyya." Allah has given me the Book and made me a prophet. And He has commanded me to perform the prayer and give zakat. Isa, Isa. The first obligation. The first obligation.

45. 14:33

    And speaking about other prophets, Allah, jalla wa 'ala, says in Surah Maryam, after mentioning them in detail: "Those are the ones whom We chose and honoured" – the prophets and messengers.

46. 15:01

    There is no one more distinguished than them. There is no one more distinguished, more respected than them. They are the elite. They are the foremost, who came from the offspring of Adam, and from those whom We carried in the ark with Nuh, from the offspring of Ibrahim and Israel – that is Ya'qub – and many others whom We chose. They are the cream, they are the cream, they are the elite, they are the best. What did they do [unclear]?

47. 15:41

    He says: when the ayat of the Qur'an, or the ayat of Revelation in general, were recited to them, they would fall down in prostration and weep, they would pray. And then came generations who followed their desires and who lost the prayer. My dear brothers, through your… through your steadfastness in prayer you place yourself in the row of this greatest elite, the world's elite

48. 16:28

    throughout the history of mankind, at whose head stands Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. You stand in the row with them: with Muhammad, Ibrahim, Musa, Isa and the other prophets and messengers.

49. 16:43

    The greatest bankruptcy, the greatest loss, is to abandon a single prayer, let alone to allow prayers to just pass by like that. But what will make us persevere in performing the prayer constantly, permanently and continuously is understanding the essence of prayer, reflecting, when you say "Subhana Rabbiyal-a'la," [unclear] what it means.

50. 17:08

    Glory be to my Lord, the Most High. You lower yourself, while the exaltedness of Allah, jalla wa 'ala, [unclear]. Prayer, humility in prayer, the sweetness of prayer is something that always drives you on.

51. 17:23

    When you feel that, then even if all the armies of this world were forcing you to abandon the prayer, there is no way you would abandon it. And command prayer to your families. You come to the mosque, and this [unclear]. Perhaps you do not need to be told this. But I am telling you this because you should be da'is (callers to Islam).

52. 17:39

    Not only us hodjas; you should be da'is among your families and relatives. Talk to people about prayer. How many of our people pray? What percentage of our people pray? Two, three, five – if it were that, phew, that would be fantastic.

53. 17:58

    How many people pray the Jumu'ah? [unclear] of our people pray the Jumu'ah. They pray the Jumu'ah… 300 years. Well, move on, brother. All right, Jumu'ah, look further: the five daily prayers. The other prayers [unclear]. How many hutbas (Friday sermons) have you heard? What does that mean?

54. 18:14

    People are left with the hutbas [unclear]. A Muslim people, 5% pray, masha Allah, what is that? When the Muslims were proud, they were [unclear]. And then we say: the barakah (blessing) has disappeared. Well, of course. It is sins that [unclear] the barakah and attract misfortune.

55. 18:36

    In earlier times, when scholars were asked about the status of a man who does not pray, one of them would say: "And what does such a man look like, a Muslim who does not pray? I would like to imagine what such a man looks like." Well, had you lived, esteemed shaykh, in our time, you would have seen people who say "Muslims, masha Allah, love Allah and the Prophet," and who do not [unclear] the prayer.

56. 18:58

    My dear brothers, prayer is a privilege. Prayer is not a burden – it is an obligation, but it is not a burden. Prayer is a privilege, prayer is an honour, prayer is elevation, prayer is pride, prayer is freedom, prayer is comfort.

57. 19:20

    Prayer is salvation; prayer is ease and rest for the soul and the body. The Messenger of Allah, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, used to say: "Bilal, call the iqamah so that we may pray, so that we may find rest."

58. 19:35

    بَارَكَ اللَّهُ لِي وَلَكُمْ فِي الْقُرْآنِ الْعَظِيمِ وَنَفَعَنِي وَإِيَّاكُمْ بِمَا فِيهِ مِنَ الْآيَاتِ وَالذِّكْرِ الْحَكِيمِ أَقُولُ مَا تَسْمَعُونَ وَأَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ الْعَظِيمَ لِي وَلَكُمْ فَاسْتَغْفِرُوهُ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ

    May Allah bless me and you through the Mighty Qur’an and benefit me and you with the verses and the wise reminder it contains. I say what you hear and ask Allah the Almighty for forgiveness for myself and for you, so ask Him for forgiveness; truly He is the Oft-Forgiving, the Most Merciful.
