Very important eye opening message by Hamza Ali Abbasi about the reality of death. That was really unexpected. May Allah grant him and all of us steadfastness upon the deen. Ameen
However one thing really disturbed me that he will also talk about some so called "cultural" and controversial topics like the punishment of apostasy and purdah. I don't know what makes these people so worried when a woman wants to live a life of chastity and purity by observing purdah. I hope Allah ta'ala grants him understanding otherwise he is just gonna influence the young generation with these corrupt beliefs like he did in the past regarding the hurmat of music.
I have pmed brother xs11ax but he hasn't replied. I believe that he has not visited this forum since a long time. Please pray for him and his family's health, iman and over all well being. I miss him a lot.
Jazak'Allah Khayran for all your duas. Things have improved significantly my back injury almost completely healed.
I had a scan done in November last year I had a protruding Disc in my lower and also had disc degeneration taking place.
The physical symptoms where I was tilted to one side, something called a pelvic tilt and my back was curved over like you see sometimes in really old people. Anyways my Doctor referred me to a spinal surgeon. I was put on waiting list told it might take sox months or so for an appointment.
With the arrival of Covid19 I never got to see the Spinal Surgeon dont think I will get an appointment anytime soon either. But in the interim my back has been healing I am no longer tilted, also the back is no longer curved.
Overall I would say about an 80- 90% improvement from where I was. I am physically independent and more mobile then I was. Alhamdulillah.
So Insha'Allah if things remain as they are I may not require an operation afterall. Allah is most gracious.
It is has been an interesting adventure. Apart from the physical symptoms some mentally and emotionally challenging moments and low points. But Allah has helped me through it.
You treat it like any flu, but it's going the peak period will be worse and will last a while longer.
For those with symptoms and without, treat yourself by having a glass of ZamZam water a few times a day along with black seed oil, honey and with ajwa dates. You can't go wrong!
The neuro surgeon may suggest:
A few exercises
instruct not to lift anything above 4 kgs
Not to drive motor cycle or scooter, not even pillion rider.
sleep on an hard surface. May be 4 folds of cotton blankets as bed.
If living in sub-continent avoid back seats in public transport buses. If not getting back seats, stand and travel.
Don't give even small jerks to the back.
After MRI scan, if required doctor may recommend surgery, that too when the above part won't work.
Alhamdulillah she is now home but ended up spending over 10 days on a ventilator in icu and now is unable to do basic tasks herself and also has delirium.
May Allah give her Shifa from all ailments. I request all to make Dua for her and all those affected in any which way too.
(Let us not go off track and keep this topic for Dua's only)
I have been gently doing Dawah to my elderly non-muslim neighbour . Who I mentioned in my above post For some time.
He has finally acknowledged that he believes the Islamic narrative makes more sense then christianity. And he further stated If he was younger he would have embraced Islam.
Although I have explained to him that there is no age limit. In embracing the truth.
Something emotionally is holding him back.
I humbly request duas from everyone that ALLAH grants him the tawfiq to take the final step and recite Shahadah.
Take him for jummah salaat to a masjid frequented by Muslims of different ethnicities. Arrange for him to informally meet some revert brothers. Do his ikraam in the masjid. Just let him come there and make him feel happy and comfortable.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
