Increasing Breast Milk
Question
I gave birth a month back. However, I am not producing adequate milk, due to which the baby has lost weight instead of gaining. Please help me in this regard as this is causing me a lot of distress, because I want to feed him my own milk.
Please help.
Answer
The mother should write the following verse with saffron on a piece of paper and wear it on the right hand as a Taweez, and the same verse should also be written with saffron on a plate, and thereafter the plate should be washed and the water drunk by the breast feeding mother. The verse is as follows;
اللهُ يَعْلَمُ مَا تَحْمِلُ كُلُّ أُنثَى وَمَا تَغِيضُ الأَرْحَامُ وَمَا تَزْدَادُ وَكُلُّ شَيْءٍ عِندَهُ بِمِقْدَارٍ عَالِمُ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ الْكَبِيرُ الْمُتَعَالِ
Also, one may recite the following verse for increase in milk;
وَالْوَالِدَاتُ يُرْضِعْنَ أَوْلَادَهُنَّ حَوْلَيْنِ كَامِلَيْنِ لِمَنْ أَرَادَ أَن يُتِمَّ الرَّضَاعَةَ
