In this short sohbet, Sheikh Bahauddin reminds us that the aim of our life is to earn the pleasure of Allah Almighty. Whatever we face – pressure from governments or personal hardship – loses its weight when our hearts are aligned with what pleases Him.
True peace does not depend on outer freedom or material security. Even “in prison,” a heart pleased with its Lord turns any place into a glimpse of Paradise. So the focus shifts from worry about the end times – the exact hour of Qiyamah or the coming of the Mahdi – to our own readiness. When we prepare ourselves spiritually, these events will unfold in their time, according to Allah’s plan.
The Sheikh urges us to trust the divine programme rather than our own schedules. Friday, Saturday or Sunday are human measures; Allah’s timetable is sovereign. By surrendering to it and dedicating ourselves to pleasing Allah, we are no longer shaken by worldly disturbances.
To deepen this practice, the Royal Ottoman Society offers live gatherings where seekers take Bayʿah, join in collective zikr and receive guidance.

May Allah’s pleasure fill every breath we take.
