Is it better to refrain from seeking medical treatment?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh: Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 911 to the end of it ... What does that mean? It means they do not take medications that are not necessary That is: Why is cauterization not beneficial? No, it is among the best of medicines, as the hadith states, but the Lawgiver disliked it. But is there harm in leaving it? Suppose there is a type of illness that requires cauterization, and if it is not done, there is fear for the one who is not cauterized...
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh: The ruling differs. So, in summary, take the doctor's opinion.
The questioner: Isam.
The Shaykh: Isam, and clarify with him. That is, if this is left and we endure it for hours, a day, or days, will harm result in the end, or not? If he says harm will result, treatment is necessary. If he says no, this will go away naturally due to the body's resistance to the foreign substance, then I do not see that he should treat himself. In any case, the opinion is yours. Praise be to Allah... the whole discussion.
The questioner: Praise be to Allah, a favor from Allah.
The Shaykh: That is what we seek here. Our brother al-Khatib was stung by a scorpion, as we say in our recent past, and he wants to consult you. May Allah reward you with good.
The questioner : Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy.
Another questioner : Peace and mercy of Allah be upon you.
Another questioner: How is the doctor?
Another questioner: There is nothing wrong with it.
Another questioner: Praise be to Allah for your safety.
Another questioner : May Allah keep you well.
Another questioner: I ask Allah to ward off the calamity from you, and praise be to Allah.
Another questioner : No, Doctor, it is not the bee.
Another questioner: The yellow one.
Another questioner : The yellow one, may Allah bless you.
Another questioner : ... meaning.
Another questioner: It is not harmful now, Doctor. When I was first stung, it was a severe sting, and no symptoms appeared. In the evening, slight swelling appeared on the finger. This morning, the finger and part of the palm swelled, and I have itching, and the place is hot, naturally hot.
Another questioner: Okay, what should I say? If you can come to me after noon, I will give you some medicine from my own supply.
Another questioner: May Allah honor you. Now I have a question before this: if it is left...
Another questioner: If it is left, it might go away on its own, hello.
Another questioner: Yes.
Another questioner: It might go away on its own.
Another questioner : Yes.
Another questioner: It might increase.
Another questioner: It increases. Okay, what does that mean? Let us say...
Another questioner: ... you are speaking to me from the pharmacy, and you do not want me to give you medicine, I will give it to you without payment.
Another questioner: May Allah be pleased with you, Doctor. My intention is that if there is no fear of it, it should be left until it goes away. But if there are complications to be feared, then we resort to this.
Another questioner: It is better that you come and take the treatment.
Another questioner: It is better, meaning, okay, good, if Allah wills, I will try. May Allah bless you, if Allah wills.
