The Story Of The Mureed And The Herniated Disc Around October of 2010, I began feeling extreme pain from my lower back through my hip and all the way down to my right leg. It was so painful I couldnt even stand to pray. The pain kept getting worse and worse, to the point I couldnt take it and decided to go to a fellow mureed who happened to be one of the top orthopedic surgeons in Michigan. After reviewing my X-rays, he recommended that I get an MRI which would show more detail. The MRI’s showed that I had a Herniated disc at L5 S1 which was causing all the pain. After seeing it, they looked at me in amazement and remarked that I must have a very high level tolerance for pain. I did have lots of pain, but it was tolerable. Immediately, I realized that my Shaykh’s blessing was minimizing my pain. Both the MRI Radiologist, who also happens to be a mureed, as well as the orthopedic surgeon assured me that there’s no way I will be cured except by an operation that involves inserting a screw and would restrict my ability to carry heavy weights or sit for long journeys. He immediately recommended for me not to carry anything over 5 pounds and that I should even not fly on long trips. I was shocked to say the least and thought, How am I going to do my job? which requires flying all over the world and even to the Far East at least twice a year, sometimes 20 hours of flight time with a stop in Japan! And of course I need to carry 50 pounds or more of luggage. I informed Mawlana Shaykh Hisham, for whom I work as his assistant and cameraman. He looked at me and smiled. I felt shy to ask him for a cure as I knew if Awliya are asked they must get permission from Prophet (s), and they feel shy to ask except for all that are in the same situation. Our very next trip was to Argentina and Chile. I knew it was going to be a painful experience but with the blessings and support of my Shaykh, I went and that’s when I witnessed the MIRACLE. Never did I feel the pain on the plane even though I was sitting for hours on end and the pain even disappeared while praying. I could even carry heavy bags with no pain afterwards. Shaykh Hisham mentioned the miracle in Chile at our last event. (sufilive/How_to_Overcome_Personal_Fears_and_Doubts-3158.html) When I got back to the USA, my orthopedic doctor insisted on seeing me. When I got to his office he remarked, “We both know who took your pain away!” SubhanAllah... Please continue to SHARE our posts with all, JazakAllah Khair!
