Seeking Medical Cure

Seeking Medical Cure

Allâh Ta'âla has created a cure for every sickness. It is through Him that medicine has an effect. If He wishes, medication will be beneficial. And if He does not wish, the medicine will not help in any way.

Thousands of different medicines may be used but they will not help (if Allâh does not wish so). Therefore, one should not have this belief that a certain medicine cures and another does not. It is Allâh who cures. If He wishes you to be cured immediately, He will place the cure in that medicine. If not, the medicine will not help.

We have been ordered to seek the cure. We do this by placing full trust in Him. It is for this reason that we make dua to Him alone. As for that person who has complete trust in Allâh and does not seek any medical treatment, no evil thoughts will enter his mind. He will express gratitude to Allâh all the time. It is permissible for such a person not to seek any medical treatment. However, Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had sought medical treatment and also showed us the benefits of certain medicines. It is therefore preferable to seek medical treatment but at the same time the person should exercise patience and express gratitude to Allâh.
