In the Name of Allah, the Healer of all beings


The book of Sufi Healing by Sheikh Muhinudeen Chisti

Medicine is something originated with a human being, connecting with a human soul. It’s associated with this deep sense of healing, and curing, and most essentially, helping. How would you help your essence to attain this heightened sense of spirituality when you tear up your physical self with un-wholesome fare? Subhannallah. Our guide, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) mentions ‘Eat wholesome food’ and, this book attempts to explain this and other very fulfilling narrations, as well as most beautiful verses of the Glorious Quran, attainting to the physical, spiritual and mystical.

It took quite a time to read this book, as it often happens with Islamic ones. You need to somehow, brood, over all that is written. Contemplate; take notes, sigh with submissiveness over the significance of very beneficial words. The book is about Sufism, which first of all, has this entire susceptible air about it. There is somehow, more than need be, of realms, reverence and roses. I think you need to read the allusions of ‘souls coming to visit sheikhs’ and ‘the essence of the soul of the rose’ with care.

After the precautionary measures, one can delve into potions for various diseases, foods prescribed by the Prophet of Allah (peace be upon him), a bouquet of perfumes that can cure a thousand sicknesses and a cauldron of other inspiring matters. The Sheikh describes the colossal profits we gain from each position in salaah, and which we do not realize, but these prayings assist us in a regular flow of blood to the very different paths of our body.

Subhannallah, our Masterful Fashioner of Shapes Creator has made us a most masterful creation. The Quran, for instance, is our Ultimate Book. The Quran too, is the perfect Guide for breathing. When one reads prescribing the methods of pausing and pulling, it strengthens the lungs and allows in further air. Allahuakbar. Allah, Al-Kabir gave us occasions that guide us and make us of those who fulfill these special opportunities.

Alhamdullilah, one of the very better benefits I gathered was when I cooked, I felt the hearts of the spices and their specialties beautify the essence of food, instead just chucking in things without experiencing anything.

Souls become amazing discoveries once they are guided onto the Straight Path.


Allahu Alim
