Question: I
am a helpless and destitute woman. It has been from 1963 to 1980, but my
troubles have not been alleviated. I have been separated from my parents for
twelve years. My aunt kept me with her. For a few days, my aunt treated me
well. Then, my uncle and aunt did not lessen their oppression. My aunt married
me to a man who was corrupt from childhood. The marriage had just been four
days. He began to treat me harshly. At that time, I was only 13 years old. I
have been crying over my fate ever since. My husband is elderly and works as a
clerk. Whatever he earns, he spends on narcotics and then returns home. I make
a living by teaching tuition and sewing. I have eight children. The eldest son
does not leave the company of reckless friends. No apparent illness is visible,
but whenever he works, he falls ill. The fever is so high that he does not go
to work for fifteen days. He is always sad at home or wastes time hanging out
with friends. He has barely studied up to the seventh grade. I wish that at
least he completes matriculation, so his future may improve. He thinks a lot
but can do nothing. The younger son is suffering from leprosy. While sewing, I
developed cataracts in my right eye. The left eye does not work much. The left
side of my head and back constantly hurt. Sometimes, I experience mental
distress that leads to seizures. I cannot control myself. Hiccups occur. Every
night, my husband is unconscious from opium intoxication. In the morning, he
repents. In the evening, he returns to his old ways. We are not together for a
whole year. I hear that this is sinful. The marriage breaks. What can I do when
my husband is unaware, what can the wife do? Allah knows that we are living a
life that is neither of the religion nor the world.
Answer:
Upon
a deep analysis of the circumstances, the screen of mind presents a film. One
prominent role is that your father, whether knowingly or unknowingly, wronged
people. He must have worked in some department where hurting others became a routine.
Because of this role of a father, misfortune clouds the children’s lives. Here,
one might object, why should the children suffer for the mistakes of the
father? The answer is that when the children benefit from their father’s or
mother’s inheritance, it is just for the children to bear the loss of the
father’s or mother’s wrong mindset.

felt great sorrow reading your letter. May Allah the Almighty grant you relief
from these bad circumstances.

After Isha (night prayer), recite this one hundred and one times and blow on your hands. Then, rub your hands three times over your face. Continue this practice for ninety days. Count the missed days and complete them later.
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.
