How do I use the Quran for healing?
Assalamu Alaikum Warhamatullahi wabarakatuh.
So how do you use the Quran to
heal you? Whether it be sicknesses,
maybe you have a cut or a scratch,
can you use the Quran
and heal that pain,
that sickness?
Absolutely.
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala tells us in the
Quran
Now this verse Allah clearly says that we've
sent down this Quran
as a source of cure and shefa.
And it's also a mercy especially
to the believers.
Now there's a number of things to keep
in mind with this verse that'll help you
understand
and how to use the Quran
as healing.
Number 1,
the Quran Allah A'Souza
says,
We've sent down from the Quran Shefa. What's
the benefit in knowing that? The Quran ultimately
it comes from Allah. This is Allah's words.
So in order for the Quran to be
a cure for you, what must you have?
You must have a connection with the author.
You must have a relationship with Allah Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala. So you've got to live the
life in order for the Quran to work
for you. There are so many brothers and
sisters I meet them every now and then
who don't
practice Islam.
They want the Quran to cure their headaches
and pain and all of their sicknesses.
It won't work this way. It requires
us to have a steady and consistent connection
with our creator
The second thing is really interesting in the
same ayah. Allah then says it is a
it is a mercy for the believers.
Do you notice the ayah doesn't say
that it's a mercy for Muslims.
Allah singled out and focused on believers.
What's the benefit of knowing that? Well brothers
and sisters,
in order for anything to be beneficial
for you and I in our redeem
it has to have Amen.
You have to have the kind of faith
that's a quality in you. So now follow
me on this. There are 2 groups that
Allah constantly makes reference to when it comes
to iman in the Quran.
There is Al Adhina Aminu and then there
is the Mu'min.
Al Adhinah Amenu is the one that recognizes
this is part of Islam, this is part
of my faith, but they don't actually practice
it.
So they recognize right from wrong but they
don't necessarily implement it. They may say, you
know, I'm not ready to do that or
I'm struggling in that area but I know
that's the right thing to do. That's a
Ladina Aminu.
Then you have the second category the Mu'min
or the Mu'mina.
This is the actual believer.
This is the label.
Iman is a quality in their life and
they're in it and they're in it to
stay.
So whether they know it or not as
long as they know it's part of their
faith they will practice it and it becomes
a quality.
It's a part of their life. Nobody can
take it away from them.
So this ayah
highlights
the second group, the mumineen.
So that tells you and I
that Islam has to be a quality and
a part of your life. It can't just
be something you turn to, like if it's
a bottle of Tylenol or Advil.
When I need it I'll use it. It's
got to be a part of you even
during the good times, even when you're perfectly
healthy.
So the Prophet alaihis salatu wasallam told us
that as long as you're close to Allah
during the easy times then Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala will respond to you during the tough
times.
So it's very explicit and clear.
The key to making Quran work for you
and use it as medicine or healing
all lies in your connection
with Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala. You stay connected
with Him, you have a consistent relationship with
Him. Bi izni lahi ta'ala.
You can select verses and you can recite
it on your scratch, on your cut. If
somebody is sick, somebody's suffering with cancer or
disease you can recite some Quran on them
bi idhnillahi ta'ala by Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala's
Qadr and will
they will find Shifa bi idhnillah. May Allah
'Azza wa Jal bless you and I with
Shifa, Allahumma'amin.
