Ey Oğul! Beysin! Bundan sonra öfke bize; uysallık sana... Güceniklik bize; gönül almak sana.. Suçlamak bize; katlanmak sana.. Acizlik bize, yanılgı bize; hoş görmek sana.. Geçimsizlikler, çatışmalar, uyumsuzluklar, anlaşmazlıklar bize; adalet sana.. Kötü göz, şom ağız, haksız yorum bize; bağışlama sana... Bundan sonra bölmek bize; bütünlemek sana.. Üşengeçlik bize; uyarmak, gayretlendirmek, şekillendirmek sana.. Ey Oğul! Yükün ağır, işin çetin, gücün kıla bağlı, Allah Teala yardımcın olsun. Beyliğini mübarek kılsın. Hak yoluna yararlı etsin. Işığını parıldatsın. Uzaklara iletsin. Sana yükünü taşıyacak güç, ayağını sürçtürmeyecek akıl ve kalp versin. Sen ve arkadaşlarınız kılıçla, bizim gibi dervişler de düşünce, fikir ve dualarla bize va’dedilenin önünü açmalıyız. Tıkanıklığı temizlemeliyiz. Oğul! Güçlü, kuvvetli, akıllı ve kelamlısın. Ama bunları nerede ve nasıl kullanacağını bilmezsen sabah rüzgarlarında savrulur gidersin.. Öfken ve nefsin bir olup aklını mağlup eder. Bunu...

Each "Architectural Design Project" starts with a visit to the project site. The aim of this visit is to get familiar with the site and find resources to collect “data”. Then you should present that data in an organized manner. Her "Mimari Tasarım Projesi", proje sahasının ziyaret edilmesiyle başlar. Bu ziyaretin amacı proje sahasını tanımak ve “veri” toplamak için kaynaklar bulmaktır. Daha sonra bu verileri düzenli bir şekilde sunmalısınız. You should regularly visit the project site until the end of the project. Build a local citizenship for yourself. Meet with the people around. Breathe the life within that site. This study will provide you a good concept and true ideas which rely on concrete data. For your reference - at minimum - you must collect the following data: Projenin sonuna kadar proje alanını düzenli olarak ziyaret ediniz. Kendinizi o çevrenin bir bireyi haline getirin. Çevrenizdeki insanlarla tanışın. O çevredeki hayatı soluyun. ...
