Imam Ibn al-Qayyim was asked: "What is the opinion of the scholars regarding a man who is afflicted by a disease, and knows that if it should continue, it would damage his life?" The Imam responded by quoting a hadith from Sahih al-Bukhari, which narrates that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Allah has appointed a remedy for every disease He has sent down." Imam Ahmad reported on the authority of Usamah bin Shareek that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Allah has not made a disease without providing a remedy for it, with the exception of one disease, namely old age." This wonderful publication is a translation of the renowned classical Arabic book, "Ad-Da' wad-Dawa," by Ibn al-Qayyim. This book can be considered an encyclopedia on sins. The author goes into detail about the effects of sins, the different types of sins, and the punishment for sins in this life and the next.
