Fear of dying from rabies
Question
I am in huge fear of dying of rabies. Please help me. A dog had bitten me 14 years ago but at that time I have not taken vaccine. Later after 6-7 years I took the vaccine. But now I am very much worried if I get rabies in the future. So please help me with some dua for protection from rabies. The worry is effecting badly my life.
Answer
Do not worry, Insha-Allah you will not get rabies. Recite the following dua morning and evening.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
