80-1. The One who removes illness and grants healing is also He, meaning that the effect of healing in medicines is also by His command. Otherwise, medicines too can prove ineffective. Although illness also comes by Allah’s command and will, its attribution was not made to Allah but rather to oneself; this, in mentioning Allah, is as if the aspect of His reverence and respect has been taken into consideration.
