Question: I
humbly seek your assistance, trusting in your compassion toward those burdened
by sorrow. You have consistently shared in the afflictions of countless
individuals like myself, and I turn to you in this hour of profound need.
It has been five years since my marriage, yet tranquility has eluded me from
the beginning. During the initial three months, my husband’s behavior remained
relatively stable; however, he soon began exhibiting erratic tendencies,
including verbal abuse directed at my parents and incoherent discourse with his
brothers. In response, his father arranged for his relocation to London. Seven
months later, upon the birth of our daughter, my husband suffered a severe
psychological breakdown: he removed the Qurʾān from our
home, placed it upon the mosque’s
wall, desecrated its covering, discarded sacred objects such as prayer mats and
beads into the wilderness, and set aflame our curtains and religious texts.
Following these alarming events, he was once again sent to London.
Presently, I find myself devoid of any familial support; my mother—my sole
pillar of strength—has returned to her Creator. My infant daughter has now
reached six months of age.
Answer: It
is evident that your husband is afflicted with a significant psychiatric
disorder necessitating formal clinical intervention. Reliance solely upon
spiritual remedies would be insufficient; rather, a structured course of
psychiatric treatment is imperative, potentially including inpatient care. Considering
that your husband possesses British citizenship, it would be prudent to pursue
his treatment in the United Kingdom, where superior medical resources are
available. Rather than facilitating his return, it is advisable for you to make
arrangements to join him in London and to personally oversee his treatment and
rehabilitation. It is recommended that following each obligatory prayer, you
recite one hundred and one times: "Yā Allāh, Yā Raḥmān,
Yā Raḥīm-
یا اللّٰہ یا رحمن یا رحیم ", and
thereafter engage in heartfelt supplication for his recovery and well-being.
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.
