Assasalmalaikum, I would be grateful if you could answer a couple of quick questions for me. I am a chartered accountant from Lahore, Pakistan. My mother is suffering from decompensated liver cirrhosis, and she also has hepatitis C. Is there any dua we should read or any other diet you would recommend on basis of Quran/hadith? Also is it against Islam to visit people 1) who proclaim to cure people by reading verses from the Quran or 2) who proclaim that they are blessed with healing powers. If this is ok in Islam, then would you know of any one? I understand that you are very busy, but would be extremely grateful for an early reply. Thanks!

(Fatwa: 322/288=B)
Ask your mother to recite the below dua seven times: أسأل اللہ العظیم رب العرش العظیم أن یشفینی
Also, ask her to recite ya slalam (یا سلام) as much as she can.
(2) There is no need to go for treatment to such a person.
