Request:
Assalamualaikum Shaykh,
I have written in before, to ask for a prayer request for my mother. Her physical disability is increasing, and often she goes into depression. I understand that the disability may be caused by black magic. Please forgive my lack of adab, I would, if possible, like to request for a prayer to remove her afflictions, whether they are natural or supernatural, and to lift her depression. I would also like to ask whether there is any zikir I can read to lift this feeling of helplessness from myself, as I have tried to help her get out of her depression but she is not open to anything I have to say. Thank you.
Response:
Alaykum salam,
Mawlana is praying for you and your mother. Just use tender care with a few filial words but with Fatiha and Salawat in your heart such as Salat Tibbiyya or Tunjiyya or a simpler form. Give sadaqa to the dispossessed and surrender the matter to Allah.
