The Persistent Cough



Hakim was coughing at night and could not sleep. Mum took him to the doctor to get a cough mixture. That night and the following night there was no improvement to his cough.

Next day mum was talking to her friend and she suggested making a home remedy. Her friend Jasmina said that she used a home ready with the whole family and it worked well by the will of Allah SWT.

Mum gave Hakim Coffhelp. Hakim said, “Bismillah [In the name of Allah].”
Mum said, “Let us make a dua to Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala). It is Allah who heals us.”
Then Hakim said, “Ya Allah! heal me.”

The first night Hakim still coughed but it was not as bad. With each passing night mum noticed Hakim was coughing less and less and Hakim was getting a more peaceful sleep.

After a few days Hakim was able to sleep through the night without coughing. Hakim wanted to share this news with grandma so he called her and said, “Grandma my cough is gone, Alhamdulillah [Praise be to Allah SWT]. I can sleep through the night. Coffhelp has worked. You must use it when you have a cough.”

Grandma said, “Alhamdulillah, you are feeling well again. Hakim, Coffhelp has worked only because Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) has willed it. You should say, by the will of Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) Coffhelp has worked and I don’t cough anymore, Alhamdulillah.”
