I have been drinking for 13 years. I started drinking at the age of 12 and it got worse. I tried many a times to get rid of this addiction as none of the others in my family is into any kind of addiction. But since I started at such an early age, I had become dependent on it. I knew it was a bad habit, and wanted to get rid of it, but I could not bring myself to do it.
I tried hard, but the moment evening arrived, I needed to get a glass in my hand. I just could not concentrate on anything else at that time. I was completely trapped and felt helpless. My mother cried all the time, begging me to leave it saying it is a sin to drink (we follow Islam strictly). It was not possible for me to visit a rehab coz it was not the kind of thing that we could have gotten away with, and I had tried practically everything else.
One day, my mom told me about Baba Ajmeri saheb. She had great faith in him, and she told me that she wants me to ask for his help. She was sure that Ajmeri baba could pray for me to help me get rid of my addiction. I accepted her advice and we both spoke to Ajmeri baba. He said he could help me and he had helped several other people with similar problems. I was relieved to learn that. Ajmeri baba started praying for me. I could control for two days initially but I was back to drinking the third day.
But from the next week onwards, the moment I took a sip, I puked. I did not know what was happening. I just started hating the taste of it. Since I was so used to it, I tried changing brands and types of alcohol that I used to drink – but nothing worked. Any alcoholic beverage I sipped, I puked. It went on like this for 2 weeks, and then I just started hating the smell itself of alcohol. It reminded me of puke.
I was surprised, but was happy inside my heart, because I wanted to leave drinking. Now, I have been clean for about 8 months. I just don’t get the urge to drink anymore. I do not like the smell of alcohol anymore. I am so thankful to you ajmeri baba. I am thankful to you for your miracles. You are really a god’s man. You have done such a wonderful thing. You have made me a true muslim. I promise that I will never start again. Please keep me in your prayers always, Ajmeri baba. Apka bahut bahut shukriya.
