In 1999, I received a call that Karima (Umm Isa) had been rushed to the hospital emergency room.  She was experiencing profuse bleeding form her nose and mouth.  Her blood pressure was very high - 195/175.  Immediately a blood workup was done.  The results were that the patient’s platelet count was zero.  Platelets are the cells which perform blood clots and stop bleeding.  A normal platelet count is between 150,000 and 550, 000.   This presented a serious interest of concern for the doctors.  They had seen a low platelet count but never a zero count.

Treatment at this point was to start and immediate transfusion of platelets.  Blood clots in Karima’s mouth and on her lips were increasing in size and growing in number.  Patches of a red rash began covering her arms, face, and on the whites of her eyes.  Further examination concluded her spleen was enlarged.  The diagnosis being given then was that the platelets were being destroyed by the spleen; this could indicate Leukemia or Lupus – cancer!  Patient began to lose red blood cells and her hemoglobin dropped below eight.  A spleenoctomy (removal of spleen) was strongly suggested. Yet, at the same time the severity of her conditions made any type of operation a very high risk.

At that point, I had been contacted and a Q T was sent to my Khalifa, Atiq  Shahid, who wrote out special ayah and duas that were tied at the patients forehead and waist.  At the commencement of this treatment, platelet count went up to 5,000.  Additional prescription of listening to a recitation of the thirty-four Healing Ayah for fifteen to twenty days and daily recitation of  Sura tul Fatiha to begin immediately.

After one day of Quranic treatment, platelet increased to 17,000.  Prior to surgery, platelet count rose to 480,000.  At this point Quranic treatment continued to be administered with no other medical treatment given, except for maintenance of diabetes.  (Patient insisted that Quranic Prescriptions could not be removed.  She wore them into surgery.)

Later, the surgeon informed the family that what took so long was that during the first biopsy they found no cancer.  When asked what did that mean, his reply was that they had doubled check a second time a found no cancer, as a matter of fact they found nothing wrong.  His exact words, “This is what we call an AOG, “which he translated to mean an “Act of God.”  There remained no further signs of any disease.  The doctors commenced to compare Cat Scans and biopsy reports and there was no cancer.   Resulting in, no Lymnphoidectory, no spleenoctomy, no sarcoidosis, no cancer, no Leukemia, no Lupus, no more blood clots, no red rashes and no more bleeding.
