Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. This questioner asks: Is it permissible to say that Allah is the Great Physician?

Answer:
He is described in terms of information, not in terms of naming. "The Physician" is not among the names of Allah, but it is permissible to describe Him as the Physician, for He is the One who heals, Blessed and Exalted is He.
