Question:
Shortly after completing my BA examinations, I entered into marriage.
Irrespective of the exam results, my in-laws began circulating the notion that
I had completed my BA, although in reality, I failed two of my papers. My
husband, having completed his medical degree, plans to pursue further studies
abroad, and he proposes that we study together. Given these circumstances, I
find myself reluctant to inform him of the actual situation. I fear that
disclosing the truth may disrupt the harmony of our marital life.
Answer:
It is imperative to never withhold the truth. One must candidly communicate the
complete situation to their spouse, articulating that, up until this point, you
have borne the emotional burden of concealing this information, but it has now
become untenable. By disclosing the truth, you will alleviate this
psychological strain. Acknowledging one's mistakes promptly—especially when the
burden of falsehoods becomes overwhelming—is a crucial practice for emotional
well-being. The act of confronting and admitting errors, rather than allowing
them to fester, fosters mental clarity and prevents the buildup of
psychological tension, which, if left unchecked, can manifest in various forms
of psychological distress. By embracing honesty, you not only release yourself
from undue stress but also strengthen the foundation of trust and transparency
in your relationship. This will not lead to discord, but rather to a deeper,
more resilient bond between you and your partner.
Khwaja Shamsuddin Azeemi
Nearly three decades ago, the esteemed spiritual scholar and blessed guide, Khwaja Shamsuddin Azeemi (R.A), inaugurated a mission of public service with the objective of liberating humanity from afflictions, psychological distress, and physical ailments. For ten years, he remained in contemplative retreat, silently advancing this sacred commitment to the service of creation (khidmat-e-khalq). As the hearts of the people began turning toward him, he employed the medium of mass communication. In 1969, this initiative was formally introduced to the public through newspapers and spiritual journals. According to conservative estimates, through written correspondence and face-to-face interaction—particularly via national publications and the Roohani Digest—Hazrat Azeemi has extended spiritual guidance and healing to over 1.4 million men and women, addressing intricate personal crises and intractable medical conditions. Today, it is not uncommon that wherever a few individuals gather, and a seemingly insoluble dilemma or incurable illness is mentioned, someone inevitably suggests: “Establish contact with Azeemi Sahib—the matter will be resolved.”
Through the grace of Allah the Almighty, the spiritual affinity with the Prophet (P.B.U.H), and the continued beneficence of the blessed guide, four volumes of Roohani Daak (Spiritual Correspondence) have now been compiled. The first volume is hereby presented to you for contemplation and benefit.
