Question:
My fourth child, aged 14 years, was perfectly healthy for the first six days
after birth. However, after the arrival of my sister-in-law, my son fell ill,
and over time, he became emaciated and frail. I left no stone unturned in
seeking medical help, consulting various physicians, specialists, and even
homeopaths, enduring considerable hardship in the process. After much suffering,
my son regained some strength. Subsequently, I gave birth to a daughter, now 12
years old, who initially thrived, but gradually, she too became emaciated. It
has been 14 years, and despite trying various treatments, including consulting
female doctors and traditional healers, none of the interventions seemed to
have any effect. I perform the five daily prayers and frequently recite Surah
Yaseen, praying to Allah for healing, as I believe that healing lies in His
hands alone. It is important to note that my sister-in-law's children, though
initially healthy, eventually developed the same affliction. This condition
appeared after her visit. Doctors suggest inflammation in the intestines and
stomach, a white coating on the tongue, persistent bad breath, and
constipation.
Answer:
It is imperative to avoid attributing these health issues to superstitions or
unfounded beliefs. Upon a thorough examination, it appears that the underlying
cause of these recurrent health problems lies in a deficiency within your own
physiological constitution, particularly within the blood, which has
subsequently affected the quality of the nourishment provided to your children.
This deficiency has likely compromised the digestion and absorption processes,
leading to chronic gastrointestinal issues, such as malabsorption and
persistent diarrhea, which manifest as the severe emaciation you describe.
The
continual presence of digestive discomfort and failure to properly absorb
nutrients is exacerbated by dietary imbalances and possibly the consumption of
unclean or improperly prepared food. This imbalance, which affects both your
family and your sister-in-law's, is not a matter of fate or supernatural
influence but rather one rooted in biological and environmental factors. The
apparent correlation between your children's condition and the shared
environmental influence underscores the importance of addressing these factors
in a practical and evidence-based manner.
It
is advised to seek professional guidance from a local physician or an
experienced herbal practitioner (hakim). By restoring equilibrium there will be
no further need for medicinal treatments or interventions.
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.
