Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim.
A word without bismillah has no value.
it is like a donkey without a brand. Don't forget bismillah.
Bismillahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim. We are the servants of Allah.
There is a saying...
when something increases, it's value decreases.
it is important. We went to Istanbul in 1940.
How many years? 70 years.
Istanbul University was the only one.
Faculty of science, faculty of letters, faculty of law,
faculty of medicine, engineering was in...
close to the naval yard. I forget the names. Gümüşsuyu.
It was the only one.The faculty of agriculture and forestry was in Ankara.
And veterinary, the civil service was in Istanbul...
then they moved it also there.
The military academy was in Istanbul, then was moved to Ankara.
There was only one university then, the teachers were....
perfect. The new teachers are...
They didn't teach then by looking at the notes in front of them.
When they do like this they can't continue.
these men were ordinarius professors.
We studied chemistry.
He was an ordinarius professor.
He had various inventions,
more voluminous than this,
general chemistry lesson...
He used to teach.
He was the head of the branch.
He never looked inside (the book), he taught in Turkish.
Osman Gazi, now...
70 or 80? G: 165 universities.
We are cheapened, very much cheapened.
All the graduates of universities,
there is no area of employment for all these people,
because our government is fake -
meaning an elected government
is not a government. Now if you..
elect teacher for the university, what is the value?
What does he know? Hospital...
head physican with election?
Surgeon by election? Is it possible?
The order of Allah Almighty;
"Give everyone...
their right."
I'm saying...
people got on board. Who is the captain?
Captain, in this ship...
people in this ship elect among themselves,
because it is the age of democracy.
You will choose the captain. Who are we going to choose?
"Who is better than me?" The other said; I know better.
Put here, they put here.
He sat at the wheelhose, in the evening they looked,
free the anchors, did they free them?
o captain, the compass..
did they fix the compass? It's already broken.
Now people inside the ship...
the man was elected but...
he knows nothing about being a captain.
He arrived at a bay in the morning,
he sat, in the morning...
what happened? they said. We arrived. Arrived where?
The sea ended, he said.
Does the sea ever end?
Are you going to the sea or the land?
I shall throw you to the sea.
Get out of the ship.
What is this? What shall we do?
The sea ended.
The ship stopped.
We aren't going in that direction. Our compass was like this...
We came and ran ashore.
What they call democracy is...
an irrational method of management.
"the heads become the feet, the feet become the head".
The Prophet (saw) said.
500 members of parliament,
600 members in Turkey? G: 550, sir.
What do 550 men do?
Nobody opens their mouth. These men take money.
They take half of this. What is it that they do?
They argue, they swear at each other.
We are going to tell the wrong way.
Whether they like it or not.
Osman Gazi. What is your profession?
G:Theology. Look, theology.
The priests have special dresses and signs.
How will I know if he is hodja Effendi? They force people.
He must wear this dress,
this dress doesn't give hodja Effendi an honor.
Hodja Effendi must wear the dress of the Prophet (saw).
Civil men come here to me...
mufti, leave it...
I thought you were municipal worker.
It won't last. What happened? The sea ended.
What is your occupation?
G:I'm an imam in Dortyol. He is the hodja of the mosque.
I thought him also as a municipal worker.
Why do they interfere? Even the cooks,
they have a dress.
Why do you interfere with what hodja Effendi wears?
Why do you force him to wear?
This isn't Islamic.
This is the symbol of Jesus (as).
They say he was crucified,
this symbolizes the body, this his arms.
He forces us. G: Unfortunately.
Our Osman, what was that?
famous writer he used to swear at them...
G: Serdengeçti? M: Perhaps.
They said he was a deputy. While he was getting inside..
they asked "where is your tie?". He said "Here it is." (inside pocket)
You can't enter without a tie. It is here, he said.
Your place of birth is...
G:Çorum. M:Çorum is a spiritual place.
Osman Gazi, there are many sahabas there.
May Allah raise his station,
there was...
he came here, invited me, Allah let me go...
he took me somewhere, there were 60 sahabas.
For instance, how long from here up to...
that distance? There are stones.
Hodja Effendi, maybe you've never seen that place.
There are stones, each one of them...
even a weight lifter can't lift them. They are on top of 60 sahabas.
Byzantium turned them,
the martyred sahabas...
there is also "yayan dede" in Çorum. Do you know
his story? They don't know these kinds of things.
people don't know their own country. There are many sahabas.
Yayan Dede, Yayan Baba...
it is a mosque I guess and inside is a tomb,
it is inside the graveyard. Qıbla is like this, we go like this,
there is a road, when we go from that road...
we stopped at some point, holy one told me...
this is the maqam of Yayan Dede, he is a sahaba, his story...
Allahu Akbar, our Prophet (saw)...
he is after the Prophet (saw)
He is the holy sahaba, he said.
After our Prophet (saw),
they used to go to the war, to invite people to Islam.
This person had 2 sons,
they got ready to go,
probably at the center of Madinat al Munawwara...
His sons would go with the soldiers.
Their father came, said: "What is this?" We are going to war. They say.
I will also come. "O our father, you are old."
We should go. Impossible, I will go, I must.
They said ok.
They said to the chief of seriye,
we shall proceed at night. Pity on him.
Pity on this old men. They said; "O our father!
Tomorrow morning we will move. Get ready tonight."
When he entered the house, these 2 walked.
Next morning he got out and asked if they saw the soldiers.
How come? How can they leave me?
Subhanallah, subhanallah! I shall follow them.
He went after them, with his armour.
He followed them. he was martyred in Çorum. Yayan Baba.
It is a holy place Hodja Effendi.
Çorum is a place that carries holiness.
They didn't realise its value. Still they do not.
We are left inside this.
They are blinded. With their republic, etc.
They are unable to do anything. All of them. Incapable ones,
have authority.
Ooo 2 minarets!
right on the road, common people don't deserve 2 minarets.
2 minarets are built either by grand vizier or...
the sultan built. Now, the village people build.
I'm going to say put 1 at the back, so it will be 3.
You will tell them. He has noor (light).
It was enough if you only did like this, whoever you give..
say salatu salams, the good deeds will be on us.
G:Mashallah. M: Your...
you also take. How is it? G: Very nice.
Look at the majesty of the Ottoman Pasha.
Look at the contemporary ones.
I shall give you these. You might give to people.
I shall give you also.
Saltanat.
G: Thank You. M: May Allah's mercy be upon you.
