Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, a sick woman is complaining of pain in her private parts. She has visited doctors but found no benefit. She found no benefit, so she went to her folk doctor, and he prescribed cauterization for her, because he suspected she had sciatica. However, she heard about the hadith of the seventy thousand who will not be subjected to cauterization. Should she undergo cauterization or not? What is your opinion on this?
Answer:
The matter is permissible. The matter is permissible, especially when there is a need, and if no other treatment is available for this illness, she should undergo cauterization and place her reliance on Allah, because this is acting upon the means. This is acting upon the permissible means, and praise be to Allah.
