Question:
I
was once a devout practitioner of the five daily prayers and regularly
participated in religious gatherings. I had also committed parts of the Qur'an
to memory. However, over time, I have drifted away from these practices. I no
longer perform even a single prayer, and the memorized verses of the Qur'an
have faded from my memory. Additionally, I find myself frequently uttering
obscene language. The weight of my sins has caused my heart to become deeply
stained. I humbly request your guidance, seeking a method by which my heart may
be purified and its darkness removed.
Answer:
It
is recommended to request a family member, such as your mother, or another
trusted individual, to stand at your bedside while you are in deep sleep. They
should recite Surah Al-Fatiha aloud, ensuring that the recitation is done with
sufficient volume to reach your subconscious without disturbing your rest. This
practice should be followed consistently for forty days. The purpose of this
ritual is to cleanse the heart through divine mercy and spiritual purification,
allowing the light of remembrance to overcome the darkness created by
negligence and sin.
Khwaja Shamsuddin Azeemi
Nearly three decades ago, the esteemed spiritual scholar and blessed guide, Khwaja Shamsuddin Azeemi (R.A), inaugurated a mission of public service with the objective of liberating humanity from afflictions, psychological distress, and physical ailments. For ten years, he remained in contemplative retreat, silently advancing this sacred commitment to the service of creation (khidmat-e-khalq). As the hearts of the people began turning toward him, he employed the medium of mass communication. In 1969, this initiative was formally introduced to the public through newspapers and spiritual journals. According to conservative estimates, through written correspondence and face-to-face interaction—particularly via national publications and the Roohani Digest—Hazrat Azeemi has extended spiritual guidance and healing to over 1.4 million men and women, addressing intricate personal crises and intractable medical conditions. Today, it is not uncommon that wherever a few individuals gather, and a seemingly insoluble dilemma or incurable illness is mentioned, someone inevitably suggests: “Establish contact with Azeemi Sahib—the matter will be resolved.”
Through the grace of Allah the Almighty, the spiritual affinity with the Prophet (P.B.U.H), and the continued beneficence of the blessed guide, four volumes of Roohani Daak (Spiritual Correspondence) have now been compiled. The first volume is hereby presented to you for contemplation and benefit.
