Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: Oh, teacher.
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner: We have our mother - may Allah have mercy on her - she told us a strange story.
Another questioner: Raise your voice, for the sake of Allah.
The questioner: My mother told us a story from her life. She said: She was doing something, and she was afflicted with a heaviness, so she would feel at night that something was trying to strangle her or something similar, and she would make sounds at night. So she went to the shaykh, and he wrote for her a written amulet (hijab). So when she wore the hijab, nothing remained in her; when she removed the hijab, the thing would return to her. When we informed her that this matter is not correct, and that a person must rely upon Allah and place trust in Allah - (Mighty and Majestic) - she took the hijab and tore it to pieces, and behold, nothing ever afflicted her again. That is what she says.
Another questioner: Do you mean we advise the brother now who has the hijab to tear the hijab?
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner: And place trust in Allah.
Another questioner: Regarding her, this question...
The questioner: Yes.
Another questioner: I have my daughter... she does not pray... the doctors were unable to help, she did not get well. We spoke to a shaykh, he wanted... he wrote for me a piece of paper: In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate... I read it.
The Shaykh: In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate, what?
The questioner: Below it was a handwritten Qur'anic verse, I don't know... something... ... it lifted it from us in your house.
Another questioner: Other people.
The questioner: I went back and returned it... she... read for her the Verse of the Throne, blew it over her, she would get up to pray and it would come to her, she would say: There is no god but Allah... it would keep bringing her back...
The Shaykh: This is from the work of Satan.
The questioner: From the work of Satan, fine... she needs... to lift the work of Satan from us.
The Shaykh: ... Now, if a person gets sick.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh: Is it necessary that he be cured?
The questioner : Yes?
The Shaykh: If a person gets a common illness, is it necessary that he be cured?
The questioner: No, it is not necessary... it has been fifteen years for me.
The Shaykh: Fine, then be patient, and your patience is only in Allah.
The questioner: A moment...
The Shaykh: You take the possible causes.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh: I gave you the answer, and I gave you the answer so you do not get too excited, so you do not get too excited I gave you the answer; and that is that Allah - (Mighty and Majestic) - tests His servants with what He wills...
