Question: I
have been gravely ill and bedridden for the past one and a half years. Every
form of treatment has failed. I humbly request your assistance through a
spiritual prescription. Approximately four to five years ago, I began reciting
the Namāz-e-Tasḫkeer
(Prayer for Spiritual Influence) around 11 a.m. for seven consecutive days.
After three or four days, I experienced what felt like an unseen force rotating
my entire body from head to toe in a circular, swing-like motion. I became
intensely alarmed but managed to complete the prayer.
That
same night, I awoke in a state of panic, startled like a small child. I drank
glucose and cold syrup mixed with ice, which brought some relief. I continued
the Namāz-e-Taskheer for a few more days and completed the full week.
The episodes of panic, however, began recurring frequently, and I would
mitigate them by drinking iced beverages. Over time, my temperament became
restless, and I developed high blood pressure. This condition persisted for
several years. Yet, I observed that during the fasts of the blessed month of
Ramadan, and during the recitation of 125,000 counts of Kalima Sharīf, Durūd
Sharīf, or Bismillāh, these episodes would not occur. Due to
hypertension, I reduced my food intake, which in turn led to physical weakness.
In 1983, while preparing lunch one afternoon, a black veil suddenly descended
before my eyes, resulting in complete loss of vision in the left eye and
partial loss in the right. After rinsing the eyes and applying eye drops, the
vision gradually returned. A week later, I developed fever during the night and
subsequently became critically ill. I was overwhelmed by extreme panic, fear,
mental distress, and terror. I completely lost the ability to sleep.
Eventually, cataracts developed in my eyes. Despite extensive medication, the
doctors found no improvement and remain perplexed by the lack of recovery. I
beseech you, in light of your knowledge, to suggest a spiritual remedy.
Answer:
Cease
immediately all the litanies(wazayef) and devotional recitations you have been
performing. Merely adhering to the five prescribed daily prayers is sufficient;
this abstention is the essential foundation of your recovery. Refrain
completely from consuming salt for one month; thereafter, resume in minimal
quantities. It is also recommended to take one teaspoon of honey both in the
morning and evening. Each morning on an empty stomach, consume approximately 35
grams (three tola) of fresh watermelon seeds. Ensure the seeds are
freshly prepared each day. Alongside this dietary regimen, engage every night
before sleep in murāqabah (spiritual meditation): lie down and visualize
luminous blue rays descending upon your head like rain. Continue this
contemplative state until you fall asleep. Inshāllah, within one month, your
health shall be restored.
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.
