Question: It
is with deep anguish that I am writing to you that, My father has been afflicted with madness for
the past twelve years. There is scarcely a place in Pakistan where I have not
taken him for treatment. He was admitted to the psychiatric hospital in Lahore
for three years. I have also sought spiritual remedies, including numerous
talismans and amulets, but all efforts have been in vain. His condition
manifests in a peculiar way: he talks to himself, posing questions and
answering them aloud. He does not harm anyone, yet at night he abruptly rises
and runs, often within the courtyard, as if pursued by some unseen force. A
curious aspect of his illness is that it becomes markedly more pronounced in
our native village, whereas in other locations, the symptoms are significantly
subdued.
Answer: Prepare
a solution by dissolving saffron in rosewater, and with it, inscribe “Bismillah
al-Raḥmān
al-Raḥīm”
on a white porcelain plate. Rinse the plate with water, and have your father
drink this water each morning on an empty stomach. By the spiritual efficacy of
Bismillah, his mental equilibrium shall, by the will of Allah the Almighty, be
restored. Maintain firm conviction—for nothing is difficult for Allah the
Omnipotent.
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.
