PREFACE
Praise be to our Almighty Lord, who honored us with Islam, as many as the number of tree leaves on earth.
May the blessings of Muhammad, the Prophet Muhammad, whom he sent us as mercy, as many raindrops.
The world is abroad for us. We did not even want to come to this expat. Our Lord sent us to this pilgrimage to get ready for our afterlife.
Our Prophet, and then our inheritors, always reminded us of this fact. Since they felt responsible to their religious brothers, they produced various works to teach them about their religion:
Hanafi jurist Imamzade Muhammed, who lived about 800 years ago, wrote his work called Şir'atü'l-Islam for this purpose.
Imam Birgivî, who lived about 400 years ago, wrote his et-Tarikatü'l-Muhammediyye and his Will to teach our people to live in Muslims.
The author of Mızrak-lı İlmihâl, who lived later than them, but had so much destiny and humility that could not even give us his name, wrote his work in a plain language that even children can understand.
and Acirc, our limbs tried to keep their religious brothers alive both with their works and their conversations in mosques. Our people lived their religion with more enthusiasm thanks to their works.
Time has chased time. Foreigners who see Islam and Muslims as a threat and danger to them first distorted our language in order to distance us from our religion and deprive us of our spiritual food. When our language got spoiled, we could not understand the books our scholars wrote for us, and therefore we could not learn our religion.
So what should we do now?
In order for our people not to experience such troubles again, those who receive religious education should protect them and write works in the form of handbooks in their own fields.
With this in mind, I have reviewed many books once written by our scholars to teach Muslims their religion. Then I tried to identify today's troubles and needs. I saw that:
Those who do not dare to speak to the Quran, try to discredit the Prophet and his hadiths and destroy the love of the Prophet in our hearts. E.g:
They claim that there is no intercession and no penalty in the grave.
Companions are trying to discredit our masters.
They find the moral principles that our Lord and our beloved Master taught us out-of-date, and they want to alienate our people from them ...
Keeping our religion alive is possible by protecting and educating our Muslim people. With this in mind, I tried to write the book in your hand as much as I could in a simple style and conversation style.
I have transferred some hadiths, some good examples and narratives that I have chosen in relation to each subject, under the title of "Rain Drop", with the idea of leaving good examples in the reader's mind.
Some readers may think that footnote books are scientific work and may not be interested in them. Essentially, a book must have footnotes to give confidence to the reader. We thought it appropriate to put some 700 footnotes at the end of the book, with the idea that our people can benefit from this book easily.
We added my previously published book, Gül Muhammedim, to the last part of the work.
I wish my brothers and sisters, who have read and benefited from this book, to pray for me.
May my Lord be our muîn.
