The Ruling on Excessive Supplication During Illness
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. I engage in a lot of supplication during my illness. Is this a good thing? May Allah bless you.
Answer:
This is a good thing: when a Muslim is afflicted with hardship or struck by illness, he calls upon Allah for healing, just as Ayyub (peace be upon him) called upon his Lord:[Al-Anbya 21:83] So Allah responded to him [Al-Anbya 21:84]. Yes.

Answer:
This is a good thing: when a Muslim is afflicted with hardship or struck by illness, he calls upon Allah for healing, just as Ayyub (peace be upon him) called upon his Lord:
his Lord, "Indeed, adversity has touched me, and you are the Most Merciful of the merciful."
رَبَّهُ أَنِّي مَسَّنِيَ الضُّرُّ وَأَنتَ أَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمِينَto him and removed what afflicted him of adversity
لَهُ فَكَشَفْنَا مَا بِهِ مِن ضُرٍّ
