In the Name of Allah,
The All-Merciful and Most Merciful
test, we must bear in mind that it is
happening for a reason, which may
or may not be known, that somehow
will benefit us. Therefore, it must be
kept in mind that all illnesses that
happen to people happen for a rea-
son. If Allah willed, no one would
ever be ill or feel pain. But even if a
person encounters these difficulties,
he must realize that experiencing
them is good for him because they
enable him to understand the transi-
tory nature of this world and the
eternal power of Allah. In addition,
such tests help us understand this
world’s transitory nature and Allah’s
eternal power.
In times of illness, a healthy per-
son’s body falls victim to invisible
germs and viruses and may experi-
ence weakness and pain in various
areas. Perhaps they may even be-
come bedridden. Their inability to
overcome a microscopic virus re-
minds them of their inherent weak-
ness and complete need for Allah.
Perhaps they may remember this
truth when they regain their health
