This teaching asks us to keep discerning which side our hearts are on – the merciful (rahmani) or the satanic (şeytani). There is no middle ground; we must recognise where we stand and choose deliberately. When we find ourselves on the wrong side, sincere repentance and remorse bring us back to the merciful way. Yet whoever has settled on the right side and then turns toward the satanic side faces severe consequences: apostasy, hypocrisy and suffering.
We are called to stay vigilant and to ask ourselves again and again, “Which side am I on right now?” By acting consciously, keeping truthful companions and staying on the straight path, we invite Allah’s mercy at the moment of death, so that our souls are received in peace.
May we all be granted the awareness to remain on the right side, among sincere believers. For practice and community support, join our live meetings.
