Headaches while doing Hifz
Question
اسلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
I'm doing hifdh, currently on my 4th parah الحمد لله. But since last week everytime I sit to learn my sabaq, just after 5 mins into learning my head starts to pain like crazy. The pain is so severe that I have to stop and close my quran right away. And now the headaches are more random, like they would just come anytime. And it's been affecting my hifdh a lot. So Please refer me to any dua that I could read to make it go away. Jazakallahu khair.
Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
The health of a person is of utmost importance. We advise you to consult a medical doctor or herbalist (Hakeem) and practice on their advice. Also perform two Rakaats Salaatul Haajah daily and make Duaa to Allah Ta’ala to grant you Shifa and enable you to complete your Hifz without any obstacles.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
