What is the ruling on a person cauterizing himself?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Afan al-‘Uzami, what is the ruling on a person cauterizing himself? Does it exclude him?
The Shaykh : From the seventy thousand? Apparently, no. If a person cauterizes himself, it is not said that he was cauterized, because “being cauterized” means seeking cauterization.
