Emrolunduğun Gibi Dosdoğru Ol.
Emrolunduğumuz Gibi İstikamet Üzere Olmak
"Emrolunduğun gibi istikamet üzere ol!"(Hud Süresi 112)
Demek bizim kafamızı, kalbimizi meşgul etmesi gereken bir numaralı meselemiz, istikametimizi koruma meselemizdir!
Yoksa günlük olayların istila ve işgaline maruz kalıp da hayatımızın bir numaralı meselesi olan istikametimizi koruma konusunda büyük gaflete düşmek değildir.
Bu konuda kimse kendini istikametini koruma görevinden hariç tutamaz.
Benim istikametim düzgündür, ben garantideyim, istikametimi koruma hassasiyeti duymama gerek yoktur, diye bir rehavete kapılamaz. Bunun aksi de böyledir.
‘Benim istikametim hep bozuk gitmiştir, düzeltmem de mümkün değildir’ diye peşin bir ümitsizlik çukuruna kendini atamaz.
Bugün istikameti iç açıcı olmayabilir; ama yarın iradesini güçlendirir, istikametini düzeltebilir, ebedi hayatını kazanabileceği mutlu bir istikamet çizgisine yönelebilir.
Bu sebeple, kafaların karışıp dikkatlerin dağıldığı devrelerde istikametini koruma konusu, hemen hepimizin bir numaralı meselemiz olduğunun farkında olmamız gerekmektedir!
Nitekim Efendimiz (s.a.v) Hazretleri’nden aldığımız şu çarpıcı uyarı da bizi mutlaka düşündürmelidir. Buyurmuş ki:
Hud Suresi’ndeki “Emrolunduğun gibi istikamet üzere ol!” ayeti beni ihtiyarlattı"
Evet, emrolunduğumuz gibi istikamet üzere olma hassasiyetimiz de bizi ihtiyarlatacak derecede bir numaralı meselemiz olmalı, saçlarımızı beyazlatacak derecede sorumluluk duygusu içinde istikametimizi koruma şuurunda ve hassasiyetinde olmalıyız.
İsterseniz maneviyat büyükleri istikametimizi koruma görevimize nasıl dikkatimizi çekiyorlar görelim. Şah-ı Nakşibend Hazretleri’ne kerametler gösterecek derecede düzgün istikametli bir zattan söz ederken derler ki:
-“Bu zatın istikameti öylesine düzgün ki, bazen sabah namazlarını Kâbe’de kıldığı bile görülmektedir!”
Şah-ı Nakşibend Hazretleri, ‘O keramet mühim değil!’ deyip geçer. ‘Dicle Nehri’nin üzerinden yürüyerek gider, suya batmaz.’ derler. ‘O da mühim değil!’ der. ‘Bahçesinde çalışırken zemin çamur olursa seccadesini havaya atıp namazlarını üzerinde kılar.’ derler. ‘O da mühim değildir!’ deyince:
Efendi Hazretleri derler, o keramet mühim değil, bu mühim değil de, sizin için ne mühimdir?
Maneviyat büyüğünün cevabına bakın:
"Benim için mühim olan, onu o makama yükselten istikamet çizgisini son nefesine kadar koruyarak devam ettirmesidir, anladınız mı şimdi mühim olanın ne olduğunu?" der.
Mesele istikamet çizgisini son nefesine kadar koruma titizliğine sahip olması, zamanla bozulma ve gevşemeye düşmemesi, kazandığı bu düzgün istikametini gaflete dalarak kaybetmemesidir!
Demek oluyor ki, hiç kimse şu anki düzgün istikametine bakıp rehavete kapılmasın.
Yine hiç kimse de şu andaki kötü istikametine bakıp da benden istikameti düzgün bir adam olmaz, diyerek ümitsizliğe düşmesin.
Hemen herkes istikametine sahip olma ve düzeltme konusunda saçlarını beyazlatacak derecede ciddi bir dikkat ve şuurun içinde olsun.
ALLAH Resul’ünü (s.a.v) ihtiyarlatan istikametini koruma titizliği, hemen hepimizin de saçlarımızı beyazlatacak derecede önemli meselemiz olsun!
Ne dersiniz, böyle bir hassasiyetimiz söz konusu mu? İstikametini düzeltenler korumak için, düzeltemeyenler de düzeltmek için saçlarımızı beyazlatacak derecede bir hassasiyet içinde olmamız gerektiğinin farkında mıyız?
Değerli kardeşlerimiz,
"Yoksa Ayağını sıcak tut başını serin, hayatını gafletle yaşa düşünme derin’"
Tekerlemesi bizim gafletimizi de mi anlatmış oluyor bu durumda?
İstikametimizi koruma diye bir meselemizin varlığının farkında olmalıyız.
Aksi takdirde gaflete düşerek dosdoğru yolu bırakır şeytanın tayin ettiği bir yola gideriz de hayatımızı boşa geçiririz. Hz. ALLAH(c.c) cümlemizi sırat-ı müstakim yolundan ayırmasın İnşaALLAH.

Be Straight As You Are Commanded.
Being in the Direction As We Are Commanded
"Be in the Direction As You Are Commanded!" ( Hud Surah 112 )
So, the number one issue that should occupy our minds and hearts is the issue of maintaining our direction!
Otherwise, it does not mean that we are subjected to the invasion and occupation of daily events and fall into great negligence in maintaining our direction, which is the number one issue of our lives.
In this regard, no one can exclude himself from the duty of maintaining direction.
He cannot become complacent by saying, "My direction is correct, I am guaranteed, there is no need to be sensitive about protecting my direction." The opposite is also true.
He cannot throw himself into a pit of despair in advance, saying, 'My direction has always been wrong, and it is not possible to fix it.'
Today's direction may not be encouraging; But tomorrow he can strengthen his will, correct his direction, and turn to a happy direction where he can earn his eternal life.
For this reason, we need to be aware that maintaining direction in times when confusion and attention are scattered is our number one concern for almost all of us!
As a matter of fact, this striking warning we received from our Prophet (pbuh) should definitely make us think. He said: "Be on the right path as you are commanded!"
in the Surah Hud. "This verse made me grow old"
Yes, our sensitivity to be on the right direction as we are commanded should be our number one issue, to the extent that it will make us grow old, and we should be conscious and sensitive to protect our direction with a sense of responsibility to the point of turning our hair white.
If you want, let's see how the spiritual elders draw our attention to our duty to maintain our direction. While talking about a person whose direction was so correct that he showed miracles to His Holiness Shah-i Naqshband, they say: -
“ This person's direction is so correct that sometimes it is even seen that he performs his morning prayers in the Kaaba! ”
His Holiness Shah Naqshband said, 'That miracle is not important!'he says and passes. 'He walks over the Tigris River and does not sink into the water.' they say. 'That's not important either!' says. 'If the ground becomes muddy while working in his garden, he throws his prayer rug into the air and prays on it.' they say. 'That's not important either!' They say:
Your Excellency, that miracle is not important, this is not important, what is important to you?
Look at the answer of the spiritual elder:
"What is important for me is that he continues to maintain the direction that raised him to that position until his last breath. Do you understand what is important now?" says.
The point is that he has the meticulousness to maintain his direction until his last breath, that he does not fall into deterioration or slackening over time, and that he does not lose this correct direction he has gained by falling into heedlessness!
This means that no one should be complacent by looking at their current correct direction.
Again, no one should fall into despair by looking at his current bad direction and saying that I cannot be a man with a good direction.
Almost everyone should be seriously careful and conscious about taking direction and straightening it, to the point of turning their hair white.
May the meticulousness of preserving the direction that made the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) grow old be an issue that is so important that almost all of us turn our hair white!
What do you think, do we have such sensitivity? Are we aware that we need to be sensitive enough to whiten our hair in order to protect those who can correct it and to correct those who cannot?
Dear brothers and sisters,
In this case, does the rhyme "Otherwise, keep your feet warm, your head cool, live your life with heedlessness, don't think deep"
also describes our heedlessness?
We must be aware that we have a problem to maintain our direction.
Otherwise, we will fall into heedlessness, abandon the straight path, follow a path determined by Satan, and waste our lives. Hz. May Allah (swt) keep us all from the path of straight path.
