Question

I have been suffering from insomnia for a few months now. I do use a natural sleeping aid some nights but it does not really help. My sister has told me that a lack of sleep is due to sinning. Is this correct? I do introspect sometimes after my salaah and ask for forgiveness. Please assist me.

Answer

This is not correct. You should refer to an experienced doctor.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
