Question:
My younger sister is ten years of age. Ever since she
was five, she has suffered from dysuria (burning micturition), for which our
mother urged her to consume copious water. Two and a half years ago,
generalized anasarca (systemic edema) began manifesting across her body.
Whenever she awoke from sleep, her periorbital tissues were so severely
edematous that her eyes resembled swollen eggs. Reviewing her diagnostic
reports, a physician advised immediate hospitalization.
For the past two and a half years, she has been under
the continuous care of a nephrologist at the hospital. Diverse pharmacological
lines were rotated, and on two separate occasions, doctors surgically aspirated
purulent fluid (pus) directly from her kidneys. The specialist asserts that her
renal parenchyma is ulcerated and unable to retain albumin, which drains
continuously through her urine. Consuming rice or shedding tears immediately
exacerbates severe facial edema. The specialist prescribed a high-protein
regimen—instructing us to feed her excessive quantities of eggs, fish, and
meat, ensuring she ingests at least six whole eggs daily—alongside costly
commercial pharmaceuticals.
Now, after two and a half years of exhaustive
interventions, the specialist announced: "We have exhausted every
available medical therapy; the volume of protein wasted in her urine remains
unchanged, rendering further treatment futile. Revisit us in two to three
months; perhaps a new compound will have emerged. Ordinarily, renal pus is
aspirated only once, yet we have drained hers twice." Our widowed
mother is utterly brokenhearted. Formerly possessing vibrant health, my sister
now exhausts herself climbing a few steps, complaining of debilitating vertigo
following minor physical exertion. Kindly prescribe a healing regimen.
Answer:
Cut two square pieces measuring two-by-two inches from
a sheet of elemental metallic lead (Sīsah), ensuring the plate is not
excessively thick. Have the prescribed spiritual inscription engraved onto both
metal plates, and secure them directly over the anatomical location of both
kidneys using a fabric waistband.
The practical arrangement is as follows: have a
supportive fabric girdle tailored with twin pockets positioned over the lumbar
renal regions. Place the inscribed lead plates within these pockets, ensuring
the interior lining is crafted from fine, permeable muslin so that the metallic
plates remain in continuous direct contact with the skin.
Question:
My mother is over fifty years of age, afflicted by an
incomprehensible malady. Oral nourishment has virtually ceased, while she
engages in incessant, rambling loquacity. At times she insists a female demonic
entity (chuṛail) clings to her
flesh; at other times she asserts an incorporeal jinn has possessed her
interior being. She persistently vocalizes the names of various mendicants and
mystics, claiming: "Such a saint visited today; such a dervish will
arrive shortly."
Our greatest distress is that in the pre-dawn hours
prior to sunrise, she frequently slips out of her bedchamber unnoticed and
wanders away, requiring frantic efforts to locate and retrieve her. I have
witnessed this pathology since my early youth. For the sake of God, explain
what this affliction is.
Answer:
Your respected mother undertook the recitation of an
intensive spiritual litany (waẓīfah) in the past without adept spiritual supervision. A
severe esoteric backfire and energetic recoil (raj‘at) occurred, which
was never clinically or spiritually remediated at the time. This unaddressed
imbalance is the sole root of her illness. My sincere prayer is that Allah
Almighty grants her complete restoration and health. Amen.
