Particular chapters in the Quran for curing diseases

Question

Assalamu Oalakum. Is there any Surah has the power to cure a person who is severely suffering from Cancer, AIDS & other vulnerable diseases ?

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

We are not aware of any evidence which specifies a particular chapter in the Quran for curing the diseases which you mentioned; we seek refuge in Allaah from them.

However, the Quran is a cure, Allaah Says (what means): {And We send down of the Quran, that which is healing and mercy for the believers.}[Quran 17:82]; and this includes physical and heart spiritual diseases.

Nonetheless, some chapters of the Quran are very special in seeking cure, like Al-Faatihah (i.e. the opening chapter of the Quran), chapter 2 verse 255, and chapters 113 and 114. For more benefit, please refer to Fataawa 88382 and 88369.

We ask Allaah by virtue of His Beautiful Names and Attributes to cure the Muslim sick people.

Allaah Knows best.
