I heard in a lecture that medical scientists or doctors claim that
many medicines&treatements have been discovererd&propounded by
inferring facts frm the Holy Quran.
Now my question is, Is that all regarding medicine is mentioned in the
Holy Quran? Or is theremore left which we've to still put into use?
I'm asking this question with regards to an earnestrequest frm a
friend of mine, a hindu named Vignesh and he asked me whether there r
matters left still in the Holy Quran to control some of these deadly
diseases.
Praise be to Allaah.
Firstly:
Allaah sent Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) with
a religion that covers all aspects of life, as Abu Dharr (may Allaah
be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him) left usand no bird flapped its wings
in the sky except that he had taught us some knowledge about it.
(Narrated by Ahmad, 20399. See Majma' al-Zawaa'id, 8/263. al-Haythami
said: it was narrated by al-Tabaraani and its men are the men of
saheeh apart from Muhammad ibn 'Abd-Allaah ibn Yazeed al-Muqri' who is
thiqah (trustworthy)).
Islam came to meet the needs of people in all aspects of their lives.
Secondly:
What is narrated in the Sunnah from the Prophet (peace and blessings
of Allaah be upon him) complements what is in the Qur'aan. These two
sources are the principal sources for Muslims. The Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him) has told us thatAllaah has not sent
down any disease but He has also sent down a cure for it.
It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him)
that theProphet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
"Allaah has not sent down any disease but He has also sent down a cure
for it."
Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5678.
Thirdly:
What the questioner has mentioned, that some Muslims say that many
remedies were discovered through the Holy Qur'aan, we say that this is
somewhat exaggerated.
The Qur'aan is not a book of medicine or geography or geology as some
Muslims like to say to westerners. Rather it is a book of guidance for
mankind and one of the greatest of its miracles is its eloquence and
the ideas and concepts that it contains. This is the main aspect of
its miraculous nature. Allaah revealed it to His Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him) at a time when eloquence had reached
great heights, so this bookcame to amaze those people and challenge
them in their area of expertise, to prove to them that it was from
Allaah.
This is not strange, and it is nothing new in religion. The signs of
Moosa (peace be upon him) – his stick and his hand – were of thekind
that was prevalent during his time, which wasmagic (sihr). The signs
of 'Eesa (peace be upon him) – raising the dead and healing the blind
and lepers – were of the kind that his people were skilled in and that
was widespread among them, which was medicine.
Hence we say that the greatest feature of the Qur'aan is its
eloquence. Scholars nowadays are stilldiscovering new aspects ofits
eloquence through their study of its verses.
This does not mean that there is no other miraculous aspects to the
Qur'aan. Rather in some verses Allaah mentions things about the design
ofthe human body, the stages of its creation and development, some
natural phenomena, etc.
But with regard to cures for various diseases, as thequestioner
mentions, the Qur'aan is a healing for thebelievers. This includes
healing the heart (mental or spiritual disease) and physical healing.
Allaah mentions honey in the Qur'aan and says that it is a healing for
mankind. And He mentions the principle of preserving good health and
guarding against sickness. So whoever says that the Qur'aan says a lot
about medicine in this regard is right, but whoever goes beyond that
is exaggerating. Rather this is a kind of exaggeration coined by some
Muslims. The Qur'aan is not a book of medicine. There are some
diseases that did notexist previously, so how could their cure come –
according to what the questioner says – before they appeared?....

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
