Filial Delinquency, Extravagance, and Maternal Anguish-Inconsolable Weeping

     

 Question:

I am a destitute widow living in ceaseless anguish. I have a solitary son whose character has been ruined by dissolute companions. From dawn until dusk, he wanders the streets with them, returning home past eleven at night. He steals and liquidates our household belongings to feast with his companions in restaurants. He has abandoned his education and treats me with appalling disrespect. He is my only child. Beholding his degradation, violent, choking sobs (hichkiyāñ) seize me. What dreams did I not nurture for him? Deliver my only child from destruction.

Answer:

When your son has fallen into deep nocturnal slumber, stand quietly beside his head and recite softly:

Bismillāh ir-Raḥmān ir-Raḥīm. Bal huwa Qur’ānun majīd, fī Lawḥin maḥfūẓ (Surah Al-Buruj, 85:21-22)

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ۔ بَلْ هُوَ قُرْآنٌ مَّجِيدٌ فِي لَوْحٍ مَّحْفُوظٍ

(Nay, but it is a glorious Quran, inscribed upon a Preserved Tablet)

Recite in a gentle voice that does not disturb the sleeper's rest. The prescribed duration of this spiritual discipline is forty-one consecutive days.

Frontal Bossing, Cranial Hyperostosis, and Rose-Light Chromotherapy-Skeletal Protrusion

 

 Question:

 

A distressing anatomical change has developed: the cranial bones of my forehead—directly superior to both eyebrows—have begun protruding outward, creating an unsightly structural deformity. I yearn for my forehead to become smooth and uniform once more, as it was five years ago. Prescribe a therapy to alleviate my distress, and remember me in your prayers.

Answer:

Upon concluding all daily activities at night prior to retiring to sleep, recite:

Bismillāh ir-Raḥmān ir-Raḥīm. Innal-insāna lafī khusr (Surah Al-Asr, 103:2)

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ۔ إِنَّ الْإِنْسَانَ لَفِي خُسْرٍ

(Verily, man is in profound loss)

100 times over a cup of water, blow upon it, and drink it. Thereafter, close your eyes and enter into contemplative meditation (Murāqabah), visualizing radiant beams of soft rose-pink light enveloping your consciousness. Maintain this therapeutic regimen for ninety consecutive days without omitting a single day.

Severe Social Phobia, Facial Dysmorphia, and Blue-Light Meditation-O Allah

 

 Question:

I recognize that despair is disbelief and hopelessness is sin, yet I am hypersensitive, chronically taciturn, and have suffered from acute nervousness since childhood. Obsessive overthinking and an agonizing inferiority complex consume me. I have no friends, which deepens this alienation.

Attending any social gathering triggers unbearable agitation; I cower before everyone, utterly incapable of sitting among respected elders, male peers, or women. Returning from social functions, I wish for death. Companions shun me because I barely articulate four or five sentences within an hour. Intrusive, nonsensical thoughts dominate my brain. I cannot sustain eye contact with anyone; walking in public feels humiliating, and I have never smiled warmly in conversation.

Whenever I sit among company, faces fall around me because my subconscious involuntarily twists my countenance into an unsightly grimace, leaving me convinced everyone brands me a fool. Daily existence is an ordeal. Pray for me in your meditative assembly so that God may deliver me from this torment and bless me with self-respect, sociability, and true companions.

Answer:

Procure a glass plate measuring 9x12 inches, paint it in a soft, solid pink tone, and gaze steadily upon it at intermittent intervals throughout the day.

Every night before sleeping, recite Yā Allāhu (یَا اَللّٰهُ) 100 times, and engage in contemplative meditation (Murāqabah), visualizing an expanse of serene, radiant celestial blue light enveloping your consciousness.
