2. 1. How prayer accelerates the healing
of the sick
In the Quran, the word “prayer” means to call out, or to seek help.
When we are sick, we become dependent and begin to call on
Allah , and asking Him to help us feel better.
In Surah Yunus, Allah (swt) says : “When harm touches man, he
calls on Us, lying on his side or sitting down or standing up. Then
when We remove the harm from him he carries on as if he had
never called on Us when the harm first touched him. In that way
We make what they have done appear good to the profligate
This ayah also shows us that it is Allah who cures us, not doctors or
machines. The ayah also teaches us to always be grateful to Allah
because He gave you health.
3. How prayer accelerates the healing of
the sick (continued)
Something else that is important to remember is in
addition to praying, we must try our best to get the
certain desire.
For example, if we are very sick, besides asking Allah to
cure us, we must get the medicines we need, we must
visit the doctor etc.
Once we try our best, we must be patient and wait for
the decree of Allah for the timing of when we will regain
our health.
4. How prayer accelerates the healing of
the sick (continued)
According to research and statistics, :
Faith ad prayer help accelerate the sick, has a positive effect, and is
recommended by doctors.
72% of Americans, according to a Newsweek survey, believe that
praying can cure someone and prayer helps recovery
People who don’t practice religion deaths are around 25% higher
than people who pray and worship regularly, according to Rush
University in Chicago.
The death rate for heart patients who prayed had decreased 30%
after a year of operations.
5. 2. Female Honeybee
The Female honeybees do everything
They clean the hive
They gather the supplies (nectar, pollen, etc.)
Feed the queen bee and the male bees
6. Female Honeybee (continued)
In the quran it is mentiond that the female
honeybee does everything
The prophet (S) couldn’t have known this
7. Female Honeybee (continued)
Your Lord revealed to the bees: "Build dwellings in the
mountains and the trees, and also in the structures
which men erect. Then eat from every kind of fruit and
travel the paths of your Lord, which have been made
easy for you to follow." From inside them comes a
drink of varying colours, containing healing for
mankind. There is certainly a Sign in that for people
who reflect. (Qur'an, 16:68-69)
8. 3. Black Holes
Black Holes are formed when a star that has consumed all of its
fuel collapses in on itself. It then turns into a black hole with
infinite density and zero volume and an immensely powerful
magnetic field.
We are unable to see black holes because their gravitational pull
is so strong that light is unable to escape from them.
However, such a collapsed star can be perceived by means of the
effect it has on the surrounding area. In Surat al-Waqi'a, Allah
draws attention this matter in this way, by swearing upon the
position of stars:
And I swear by the stars' positions-and that is a mighty oath if you
only knew. (Qur'an, 56:75-76)
9. Black Holes (continued)
Light cannot escape from a black hole because it has such a
high concentration of mass in a small space. The enormous
gravitation captures even the fastest particles.
They nevertheless reveal themselves indirectly, by the
tremendous suction which their gravitational force exerts
on other heavenly bodies. As well as depictions of the Day
of Judgment, the verse below may also be pointing to this
scientific discovery about black holes:
When the stars are extinguished, (Qur'an, 77:8)
10. Black Holes (continued)
Stars of great mass also cause warps to be perceived in
space.
Black holes, however, do not just cause warps in space but
also tear holes in it. This fact may be referred to in the verse
about stars, and this is another important item of
information demonstrating that the Qur'an is the Word of
Allah:
By Heaven and the Tariq (bright star)! And what will convey
to you what the Tariq is? The Star Piercing [the darkness]!
(Qur'an, 86:1-3)
