The Quran is not a book of medicine or of health
sciences,but in it there are hints which leads to guidelines in health
and diseases. Prophet Mohammed (peace and blessings be upon him) has been
sent as an example to mankind so his traditions in matters of health and
personal hygiene are also a guide for his followers. Being healthy is
vital in that it enables us to undergo our daily life with ease but also
to carry out our responsibility as a khalifah of Allah. Surely a happy
and healthy muslim can do a much better job compared to that done by a
sickly one! Hence, being healthy is not only beneficial to our ownselves
but also to others as well.
