Dear, Loyal, Heroic Sabri!
May Almighty God produce numerous devotees like Galib Bey in the army of Islam. He serves belief in the west as Hulûsi Bey does in the east. He tries to draw the believers from misguidance by way of Sufism (tarikat). Before ever seeing the Risale‑i Nur, he tried to act in accordance with its way; now that he has stronger connections with it, he may perform greater services. However, fundamental to the Risale-i Nur's way are reality (hakikat), the Prophet's (UWBP) practices (Sunna), being attentive to obligatory acts, and avoiding serious sins; it looks to the Sufi way in second or third place, Our brother Galib is thinking of giving instruction in the Sufi way in the form of a summary of the Qadiri, Shazali, and Rufa'i ways, among the Alevis and encompassing love of the Prophet's (UWBP) family, within the bounds of the Sunna but not vilifying the four Rightly-Guided Caliphs and the Ten Promised Paradise. There are three or four benefits in this endeavour being in the name of reality (hakikat) and on account of saving belief and preserving it from innovations.
The First: It is most beneficial to prevent the Alevis joining harmful movements and to preserve them from extreme Alevi'ism (Râfizîlik) and political Bektaşi currents.
The Second: Whatever excesses they go to, even if they are Rafizis, Alevis who take love for the Prophet's (UWBP) family as their way do not embrace atheism. For as long as love of the Prophet's (UWBP) family is firmly established in their spirits, they cannot embrace absolute disbelief since it infers hostility to the Prophet (UWBP) and his family. By virtue of their love, they adhere fervently to Islam. It is truly beneficial to draw such people into the bounds of the Sunna in the name of Sufism.
Furthermore, it is most advantageous at this time to attract the Alevis to the fold of the Risale‑i Nur so that the political currents that cause great harm to unity among the believers do not profit from their natural devotion and self-sacrifice and exploit them for themselves. Since Imam 'Ali (May God be pleased with him) is the Nur students' master and love of the Prophet's (UWBP) family is fundamental to the Risale-i Nur's way, it surely demands that true Alevis should enthusiastically enter the Risale-i Nur's fold.
Send my congratulations and greetings to that brother and tell him that the present is the time to save belief. Since at this time of innovations there are many problems and pitfalls in traversing the Sufi path while journeying with the heart, he may secure the benefits of those paths by following the way of reality within the fold of the Risale‑i Nur. And let him pray for us‥
