The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If cauterization is needed and its dislike is removed, is it prohibited? And in this case, does one enter among the seventy thousand?
The Shaykh:
It is not prohibited. If one needs it, it is not prohibited, and the dislike is removed, and one becomes among the seventy thousand; because he did it out of need, and this objection does not hold.
The presenter:
We say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
The Shaykh:
If there was a better treatment than cauterization, or a substitute like cauterization, one goes to the treatment that does not involve cauterization. But if the matter depends on cauterization, he is cauterized, or the dislike is removed. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did it. Yes.
