The Statement Concerning the Treatment
The generality of the statement concerning treatment is about the benefit of the body of a person. The nature of this body is in accordance with how Allah created it. If it is in agreement with what Allah predisposed him to, and we do not exhaust it in work, nor do we neglect it in its upkeep, it will be like a device that operates naturally. If no accidents afflict it, it is possible that it works for one thousand years; and we have an ideal example of that. the Prophet of Allah, Nuh remained amongst his people on the path of calling to Allah for 950 years.
In addition to that, there was a period before his calling, so he will have roughly completed one thousand years. So, even if that in relation to him was a miracle, except that it occurring is an evidence of that being possible.
Some specialists wrote a book in the series: "Read", with the title: "Live a Thousand Years", and mentioned a method which if it were implemented, is possible for that to occur. However, man is incapable of maintaining the rights of this body, just as the chosen one() informed the one who would fast in the day.
