Question:
Requesting an urgent dua for my mother for shiffah.
My mom went to Hajj last year, 2016, Alhamdulilah.
Before going to hajj she was a completely normal person. Above average intelligence. Street smart and wise. She used to be one of the most well adjusted people I know. Fully independent person prior to the pilgrimage. Read Al Quran, salah, gave sadaqah, did Nafil Siam etc. But of course, none of it is ever enough and there is always room to do more.
And after coming back from there (and it actually started while there) she displayed these signs: very fearful, anxious, worried at all times, unable to sleep, verbalizes every thought of hers, low appetite, feeling of heart racing and uneasiness. This is totally unlike her!! I am a practicing medical professional and do not believe this is physiological. Nevertheless, got her a full medical check up (blood work, brain MRI/c-scan etc) and everything is normal.
We have been doing multiple home Ruqiya, sadaqah, Zabaha, multiple Khatam Al Quran Al majeed. And even, (per the prophetic remedies of our beloved prophet Muhammad asm and taught by sheikh Adnan kabbani via YouTube), wrote with saffron the 1st ayah of every surah, placed in Zam zam water till the writing dissolved in the water and she drank it last week with full belief of shiffah. She as long read the 1st ayah of every surah and blowed it over herself with the niyah of shiffah and release from this calamity. This has all helped but about 50% ( if I had to put a percentage on it). Alhamdulilah shukur!
And now it is going into 8 months of this. My mother has become extremely tired and weak. She is intellectually fully intact and fully aware of her situation but can’t seem to help better herself. At times, she doesn’t even seem like herself. As if something takes over her. This makes her feel even worse. The worst part is that she loved to read Al Quran, did Zikr and made multiple Nafil Salah/Siam and now she is able to do the bare minimum. This is so unlike her.
We are now more concerned because the month of Rajab, the month of our Supreme, Omnipotent, Loving Rabbi, Allah swt month ended and we were hoping full shiffah would have come by now. We are people of Al Taqwa, Alhamdulilah. And Allah, is The Most Merciful of those Who show mercy. But we do not know what else to do. She is weathering away before me spiritually. If this would have happened to me, my mother would have moved mountains to help me. Assistance can only be asked from Allah swt but He has authorized facilitation—so through your input, we are hoping, Allah swt, will steer us to the final cure.
This seems to be a major ruhani disease and is above our level of understanding. We are hoping you will get us in contact with our revered Sayydi Sheikh Hisham Kabbani. We are willing and will be immensely blessed to go see him in person. It was my intention to do so (illness or otherwise) anyways. I left a prayer request through eShaykh for him.
I realize that you are all very, very busy. And that I am just another sister trying to tap into your busy schedule. Ramadan sheriff is around the corner and my mother is in danger of not being able to fast. She fasted all her life including through multiple pregnancies in the entire month of Ramadan (just to explain her level of reverence to Siam). So it will be a huge spiritual defeat for her. Something has robbed of her peace, independence and most importantly attempting to steal her Imaan after she spent all her life teaching us to love Allah swt and then, our beloved Prophet, Mohammad asm.
And, Of course, we have never made more istighfar than we have ever made in these challenging months.
Thank you in advance for your attention and support. May Allah swt reward you and your center and respected Sayddi limitlessly and may He be pleased with you all and your loved ones. Ameen.
JazakAllah khair. Wa salaam.
Answer:
I am praying for your mother. Do the following:
1) 100x a’udhu billah mina ‘sh-shaytani ‘r-rajeem Bismillahi ‘r-Rahmani ‘r-Raheem innahu min Sulayman wa innahu Bismillahi ‘r-Rahmani ‘r-Raheem
2) 100 hasbunallah wa ni`ama ‘l-wakeel
3) 100x Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’oon.
After reciting, blow on water especially ZamZam if possible. let your mother drink from that daily. Keep adding to the water if it gets low. Continue to do this practice daily until Allah gives her shifa In-sha-Allah.
Shaykh Hisham Kabbani
