Request:
Asalaamu Alaiykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,
May Allah preserve Maulana Shaykh Nazim and Maulana Shaykh Hisham.
I would like to a request a prayer for my friend’s grandfather [private] who is due for an emergency operation, in order to save his eyesight.
Are there any procedures the beloved can recommend for us to do as well?
Also, my great uncle has been given not so long to live. He’s been diagnosed with liver failure and we would be very appreciative if the beloved would please make dua and recommend some procedures for us to do too.
Please forgive me for my bad adab.
Jazak’Allahu khaiyr.
Response:
wa `alaykum salaam,
The only thing you all can do is to give sadaqah, as the Prophet (s) said, daawoo mardaakum bi ‘s-sadaqah,“Cure your sick ones with sadaqah.” (Abu Dawood)
So slaughter three goats, or three lambs, or one cow, and distribute the food to the poor for the sake that Allah (swt) give shifa` for that one whom you are asking. And we are praying for him also.
