Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I undergo medical examinations with the doctor every month. Is that contrary to reliance upon Allah?
Answer:
If you have an illness, and the doctor told you that you must return after every month so we can see if the illness is decreasing or increasing, or for the purpose of monitoring the illness, then there is no harm in that. This is part of treatment, and seeking medical treatment is permissible, and praise be to Allah. But if you have no illness and you are healthy, do not bring delusions upon yourself. Yes, you do not need the examination. Yes.
