Answer:
You cannot get what was not written for you nor prevent what was written for you to get. Once a mureed came to visit Mawlana Shaykh Hisham Kabbani with his autistic brother, who was wheelchair bound. When he came in the door Shaykh Hisham stood up, went and kissed him on the forehead. Then he explained to us that such children are a cause for Allah’s Mercy to descend on their families and on those around them. This young man was a teenager but could not speak. Mawlana Shaykh Hisham said if he could speak, the secrets he would reveal from what he was seeing of Divine Realities would make people cut his neck (ie. he had reached a very high spiritual station). He said for that reason, he was prevented from speaking.
Pay a sadaqa before relations with your wife, be on wudu and recite the Basmalah, inshaAllah your next one will be protected.
Allah knows best,
