Last Update:
Shaykh Ahmad Shākir (1892 - 1958) recounted that his father, Shaykh Muhammad Shākir (1866 - 1939), the former deputy of Al-Azhar, once declared an Egyptian preacher a Kāfir.
This preacher was known for his eloquence and, during a Friday sermon, sought to praise a ruler of Egypt who had been honored by the blind writer Taha Hussein. In doing so, he said:
"The blind man came to him, but he did not frown or turn away!"
جاءه الأعمى فما عبس بوجهه وما تولى !
With these words, he alluded to the Qur’anic verse describing the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) in Surah Abasa:
"(He frowned and turned away)"
By drawing this parallel, the preacher indirectly insulted the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), committing an act of blasphemy (Kufr).
Upon hearing this, Shaykh Muhammad Shākir stood before the congregation after the Jumua'ah prayer and declared their prayer invalid, insisting that they must repeat it because the preacher had performed Kufr (blasphemed) against the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
Ahmed Shākir later reflected on the preacher’s fate:
"But Allah did not leave this wrongdoer unpunished in this world before his punishment in the Hereafter. I swear by Allah, I saw him with my own eyes—years later, after he had once held a position of pride and influence, sought by the great and noble—I found him humiliated and degraded, standing as a servant at the door of a mosque in Cairo, collecting the sandals of worshippers in disgrace and lowliness. I felt ashamed for him to see me, for I recognized him, and he recognized me. Yet, there was no place for pity, nor for gloating, for a noble person rises above gloating. But what I witnessed was a lesson and a warning."
See attached picture.
A word of caution: Never diminish the status of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in any way. His honor is beyond comparison, and playing with words to equate therapy with general help-seeking is misleading. Therapy, by its established definition, is a structured form of treatment for individuals dealing with psychological disorders or maladjustment issues.
The National Institute of Mental Health defines psychotherapy as:
"Psychotherapy (also called talk therapy) refers to a variety of treatments that aim to help a person identify and change troubling emotions, thoughts, and behaviors."
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was never in need of psychotherapy, nor did he suffer from any psychological disorders or maladjustment. His character was perfected by God, and he was the most balanced, resilient, and spiritually elevated of all people. Any narrations suggesting otherwise suffer from serious flaws in their transmission. And if an authentic hadith exists, we must approach it with the understanding of its historical and theological context, not impose modern psychological frameworks onto events that took place over a thousand years ago.
What we see in this instance is deeply concerning. The physician in question repeatedly alters the definition of therapy to avoid the grave mistake of disrespecting the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Such manipulations only serve as an escape route from accountability. Do not use the Prophet to promote personal services. His name and status are sacred and should never be reduced to a marketing tool.
