Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a person has already undergone cauterization before hearing the hadith, and then leaves the sword for the sake of entering among the seventy thousand, will he achieve that?
Answer:
If Allah wills, if he intends to achieve the reward and leaves cauterization because it is done and seeks treatment by means other than cauterization. Allah, Mighty and Majestic, has made medicines easy now; the medicines are great, other than cauterization. Yes.
