Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, I have had a colitis condition for about four months. It has affected my mood, and I have felt depressed. I have seen doctors without any benefit. What did Your Eminence mean when you mentioned improving one's intention?
Answer:
The Shaykh: Yes, improving one's intention and having a good intention with Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), having a good opinion of Allah, and relying on and placing trust in Allah is required of every Muslim. Treatment is permissible. Colitis has a treatment with doctors, so seek treatment from them while placing trust in Allah. Also, recite the permissible supplications and amulets for yourself. Combine the beneficial means. Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions.
