A great number of miracles were attributed to Saint Charbel since his death. The most famous
one is that of Nohad El Shami, a 55-year old woman at the time of the miracle who was healed
from a partial paralysis. She tells that on the night of January 22, 1993, she saw in her dream two
Maronite monks standing next to her bed. One of them put his hands on her neck and made her
a surgery that relieved her from her pain while the other held a pillow behind her back.
When she woke up, Nohad discovered two wounds in her neck, one on each side. She was
completely healed and retrieved her ability to walk. She believed that it was Saint Charbel who
made her the surgery but did not recognize the other monk. Next night, she again saw Saint
Sharbel in her dream. He said to her: "I made you the surgery to let people see and return to
faith. I ask you to visit the hermitage on the 22nd of every month, and attend Mass regularly for
the rest of your life". The second monk is widely believed to be Saint Maron. Since then, and
according to Saint Charbel's will, people gather on the 22nd of each month to pray and celebrate
the Mass in the hermitage of Saint Charbel in Annaya
