All the fighters who have gone through Islam who have done something for Islam, they must have a
spiritual aspect, behind them there must be some spiritual personality (Wali Allah) whose duty is
imposed by Allah.

Pick up the history from the beginning of Islam till now even today if anyone is doing any duty for Islam
and for the Muslim Ummah then they must have some spiritual aspect.Sheikh Mohi-ud-Din Ibn Al-Arabi
(may God have mercy on him) was behind this warrior Ertugrul Ghazi and by the grace of the Holy
Prophet (PBUH) it was Sheikh Mohi-ud-Din Ibn Al-Arabi who came from Andalusia to help Ertugrul
Ghazi.This is not emotional or exaggerated. Only he who has received this light of spirituality can
understand all this. And he who does not receive this light is blind and will not understand. Such as the
Liberal Secular Brigade. The beautiful hadith of the Holy Prophet (saw) is as follows:

Is he born or made leader?
