Question:
Bismillah Ar-Rahman Ar-Rahim,
Asalam aleykoum Mawlana Sheikh Hisham,
I have recently finished a 5-year program in osteopathy (manual therapy) and am finishing a 3-year part-time program in homeopathy this year, Alhamdulillah.
I have been considering for several months now the possibility of going back to school to study medicine because I would really like to offer quality healthcare to impoverished communities and although I would like to focus my practice on natural medicine, I feel that a allopathic medicine degree could enable to have more responsibilities and therefore help more people.
I am seeking Allah’s guidance and have been making many du’as, and will be performing istikarah soon inshAllah.
May Allah bless you and all of your families, and thank-you so much for your wonderful website.
Answer:
Wa Alaykum Salam,
In-Sha Allah Mawlana Shaykh Hisham is praying for you.
