For every illness there is a cure – The broader connotation

Last Updated on 24th April 2020

It is not true to say that a person has the power to adopt certain morals but not others. Not at all! There is a cure for every ailment, or in other words

لِکُلِّ دَاءٍ دَوَاءٌ

It is a pity that people do not give due regard to this blessed saying of the Holy Prophet^sa and consider its scope limited to physical illnesses alone. How ignorant and erroneous is such a view! Just as there are means available for the improvement and well-being of the physical body, how is it possible that Allah Almighty would have provided no remedy for the spiritual ailments of man? Indeed, there are, without a doubt! It is a sure and certain fact that Allah the Exalted helps those who help themselves. However, the indolent and idle, are ultimately ruined.
