Dua for Shifa (Healing & Cure)

"And when I am ill, it is He (Allah) who cures me."
(Surah Ash-Shu‘ara 26:80)

Illness is a test — and a way for sins to be forgiven. But Islam teaches us to seek both medical treatment and spiritual healing (Ruqyah and Du‘a).

🔹 Transliteration:

Allāhumma Rabban-nās, adhhib al-ba’sa, ishfi anta ash-Shāfī, lā shifā’a illā shifā’uk, shifā’an lā yughadiru saqaman.

🌹 5. Personal Dua for Healing Loved Ones

“O Allah, heal [name], remove their pain, bless them with a speedy and complete recovery, and make this illness a source of purification and elevation in rank.”

📌 You may mention the person’s name, and make this dua sincerely from the heart.

Spiritual Mindset for Healing

“No fatigue, illness, grief, or sorrow afflicts a Muslim — even a thorn — except that Allah expiates sins by it.”
(Sahih Bukhari 5641)

Illness is a purification, and Du’a is a believer’s weapon.
