Allah says, "It may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and you like a thing which is bad for you. Allah knows but you do not know." (2:216)

Affliction is a sign of Allah's love and the way to Paradise. The Prophet, SalAllahu alayhe wa salam, said, "Great reward goes with great affliction, and when Allah loves a people, He tries them. Whoever shows contentedness among them will earn the pleasure of Allah and whoever becomes angry earns the anger of Allah." (At-Tirmidhi)

Good health is one of the greatest blessings of Allah. The Prophet, SalAllahu alayhe wa salam, said, "There are two blessings of which many people get deceived: good health and free time." (Al-Bukhari)

Good health is one of the things that man will be called to account for on the Day of Resurrection. The Messenger of Allah, SalAllahu alayhe wa salam, said, "The first thing that man will be asked of on the Day of Resurrection is, 'Had I not given you health in your body and quenched your thirst with cold water?' " (At-Tirmidhi) read more
