If you have been suffering with a life disturbing health condition for a long time, there is a high chance that Allah is calling you to Him. Sometimes the body refuses to heal not because something is missing in the treatment, but because the heart is being asked to return. From my own experience, I have seen that when no doctor, medication, or lifestyle change brings relief, it is often a quiet invitation to purify the heart and step onto the straight path.
If you have been suffering with a life-disturbing health condition for a long time, and no Doctor, Medication, diet or external healthy lifestyle change has been able to heal you, from my personal life experience, I believe there is a high chance that it might be Allah calling you to Him, to purify your heart, so that you can get onto the straight path.
I went through a period in my own life where nothing I tried was working. Every avenue I explored led me back to the same place, and eventually I understood that the answer was not coming from the outside.
Doctors Are the Delivery, God Is the Healer
Doctors are incredible people, and they are so blessed in this life to be gifted with an extremely honorable skill, to be able to help people who are sent to them so that they can have another chance in life.
A doctor’s job in this life is to help their patients to heal from diseases by connecting them with God through their skills (consulting, surgery, treatments, etc.).
God’s power is transferred through their practice to help His people.
It is not the Doctors doing the actual healing (it is God), the Doctors are the delivery.
This is something I have come to understand deeply. The skill belongs to the doctor but the outcome belongs to God. No matter how talented the person in front of you is, the healing only comes when He allows it.
Nothing in This Life Is in Our Control
For example, at Allocation Assist Middle East, we don’t ultimately control which Doctors get jobs, when, and which hospital within our network here in the Middle East; we are just the delivery through the business that God helped me to build over the last 11 years. Of course, we have to do our job with maximum effort and competence, but my point is that ultimately, nothing in this life is in our control.
It’s not me doing it. It is Him. God has power over all things.
All good and protection can only come from Him.
Our money and success in this life come from God.
I have watched this play out so many times in the business. Doors open that I did not knock on and doors close on things I was certain about. Once you accept that, the pressure of trying to control everything starts to lift.
When We Change, Everything Around Us Shifts
If we were only to focus our minds on helping God’s people that are sent to us to help them in the calling or purpose we have been gifted with in this life, everything in our world would shift.
When we change, the people and situations around us change.
I have seen this happen in my own life more than once. The moment I shifted my focus back to God and what He was asking of me, things around me began to move in a way they simply had not before.
But you have to believe first for it to work.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why Might A Long-Term Health Condition Be A Spiritual Calling?
When no doctor, medication, diet, or external lifestyle change is able to heal you, the body may be carrying something the heart has not yet addressed. From my personal experience, this is often Allah calling you to Him, to purify your heart so that you can get onto the straight path.
If God Is The Healer, Should I Still Go To Doctors?
Absolutely. Doctors are incredible people gifted with an honourable skill to help those who are sent to them. They are the delivery, the means through which Allah’s healing reaches us. Seeking treatment is part of the path, but the trust always belongs to God, because it is not the doctors doing the actual healing.
What Does It Mean That Nothing Is In Our Control?
It means we do our work with maximum effort and competence, but the outcome belongs to Allah. God has power over all things. Our money, our success, our protection, and our healing all come from Him. We are simply the delivery for what He chooses to bring through us.
How Does Surrendering To God Change Health And Life?
When we shift our focus from controlling outcomes to serving the people Allah sends our way, everything around us begins to change. The pressure lifts, the heart softens, and the body responds. When we change, the people and situations around us change too.
What Should Be The First Step For Someone In This Position?
Belief. You have to believe first for it to work. Turn to Allah sincerely, ask Him to guide you back to the straight path, and trust that the healing you are searching for begins with a heart that has returned to Him.
