I love Islam

 BismillahirRahmanirRahim


Islam is the Way of Association. And that Association, it is what Allah (SWT) designed for us. It is association with Holy Ones, association that connects us to Holy Prophet (AS), it brings us to being the kind of servants that Allah (SWT) wants us to be. And that time, the burdens of the ego, dunya, sheytan, and our desires, they leave us. And we return to that Peace that Allah (SWT) created us with. 


As Seyh Mevlana is saying, “If a person is sitting with a true Murshid, he feels peace, rest and satisfaction, very happy. This is the sign. He forgets all of his troubles in his presence and feels just like a fish in the ocean. Why do people go to the sea-side? Because when they enter the water, they find rest and enjoyment. The soul is also asking for an ocean. In our lives we need one person who is like an ocean, so that our hearts can enjoy and be satisfied with that person. We have such bad characteristics. We need someone to give us good attributes; and they do not come through reading books. They come through one’s friends. By looking at a person’s friends, you may know his character. A bad character is contagious, like a sickness. Therefore, Allah Almighty sent Prophets as medicine. Prophets are not Angels; they are of mankind, and they know everything about human nature. Whoever sits with them absorbs good characteristics.”


This Dergah that our Sheykh established for us, it is a place to absorb those good characteristics. It is a place to find Peace from the troubles of dunya. It is a place where you make the Love of Allah, of the Prophet, and of His Friends, to become our cool water- and when you enter the Association with that kind of a heart, then yes, everything in the Association must gives you as much peace and relief as cool water on a burning hot day. 


O Believers! The world around us is burning. Come to the place where you will find escape. Come to the place where you will find life. Come to the Caravan that will take you home.


- Sheykh Lokman Effendi Hz

The Syria humanitarian Criss

  Islamophobia Adds to he Syrian Refugee Crisis  Racism has been reflected in discriminatory laws, practices, and actions (including violence) against racial or ethnic groups throughout the history of the United States. Since the early colonial era, White Americans have generally enjoyed legally or socially-sanctioned privileges and rights that have been denied to members of various ethnic or minority groups. European Americans have enjoyed advantages in matters of citizenship, criminal procedure, education, immigration, land acquisition, and voting rights. Before 1865, most African Americans were enslaved; since the abolition of slavery, they have faced severe restrictions on their political, social, and economic freedoms. Native Americans have suffered genocide, forced removals, and massacres, and they continue to face discrimination. European Americans, Hispanics, Middle Eastern, and Asian Americans, along with Pacific Islanders, have also been the victims of discrimination...

Free Palestine

 your passion intact while improving clarity, structure, and impact: --- # **Stop the Genocide in Palestine** The world must wake up to the genocide happening in Palestine. Israel is not the victim in this conflict—the Palestinian people are suffering daily under occupation, oppression, and relentless attacks. Yet, the media distorts the truth, painting Palestinians as terrorists while portraying Israel as the oppressed. This pattern reflects a larger issue: the media's reluctance to show the suffering of non-white populations and its role in reinforcing racist stereotypes. The media rarely gives full coverage to the struggles of marginalized communities—whether Native Americans, Chinese, Italian immigrants, African Americans, people with disabilities, or women, especially Muslim women. Stories of oppression and resistance from these groups are often ignored, manipulated, or framed in ways that dehumanize them. This systemic bias allows injustices, like the current massacre in Pale...

Syrian refugees and the rest of the world

 Sarah Elgohary                                                                           We need to help refugee I remembered that paper Most people do not know how serious the Syrian refugee crisis is. This is because Western societies only react and pay attention to a problem when celebrities make a statement about an issue, rather than their government. This is especially the case with Syrian refugees because many politicians especially Republicans are using fear and Islamophobia to create biased policies in order to ban the entire Muslim race and stop accepting Syrian refugees, even if a majority of them are innocent people who are in need of projection not violent meaningless killing of other Innocent people. This xenophobic action is simply based on the stereotype that all Muslims are rad...
