The Name I Need | Ramadan 2026
Why Won't Allah Heal What's Hurting Me? | Allah's Names: The Name I Need - Ep. 23
Doctors can treat illness. Only Allah can give healing.
In this episode, Dr. Omar Suleiman explores the name of Allah Ash Shafi, the Healer, and what true healing means in Islam. When illness lingers and healing feels out of reach, especially when someone you love is suffering, Islam teaches us to turn to Allah for shifa while still seeking treatment.
Through the teachings of the Prophet peace be upon him, we learn that healing is not only physical. It can also purify the soul, remove sins, and bring a person closer to Allah. This episode explores powerful duas for healing, how to pray for someone who is sick, and how the Prophet peace be upon him taught us to ask Allah for shifa. You will also learn why sickness can sometimes become a means of spiritual cure and elevation.
Through the divine names Ash-Shafi, At-Tayyib, and Al Muti, this episode expands our understanding of healing in Islam and reminds us that true restoration of the body and soul ultimately comes from Allah.
