1. The Core Problem: No Recorded Healing Event by Allah in the Qur’an
In the Qur’an, there is no narrative account where:
A named sick person is healed,
A disease is removed,
A blind person sees,
A dead person is raised,
A paralytic walks,
Or a physical illness is explicitly cured by Allah.
There are claims about healing, but no documented healing events.
2. Verses Commonly Cited — Examined Closely
A. Qur’an 26:80
“And when I am ill, it is He who cures me.”
Analysis:
This is Abraham’s statement, not a recorded miracle.
No illness is named.
No healing event occurs in the text.
This is a theological belief, not evidence.
✔ Claim
✘ No event
✘ No witness
✘ No result described
B. Qur’an 10:57
“…a healing for what is in the breasts.”
Analysis:
“Healing” here refers to guidance, admonition, or inner reassurance.
Classical tafsir agrees this is spiritual/moral, not physical healing.
No sick person is healed.
✔ Metaphorical
✘ Physical healing
✘ Event-based evidence
C. Qur’an 16:69 (Honey verse)
“…there is healing for people.”
Analysis:
Honey is described as beneficial.
Allah does not heal anyone directly in the text.
This is closer to natural remedy, not divine intervention.
No miracle, no person, no outcome recorded.
✔ Medicinal benefit
✘ Divine healing act
✘ Historical healing instance
3. Jesus in the Qur’an — A Crucial Distinction
The Qur’an does record healing acts, but not by Allah directly.
Qur’an 3:49
Jesus heals the blind and the leper and raises the dead — “by Allah’s permission.”
Critical observation:
Healing does occur,
But Allah does not perform it directly in the narrative.
Jesus is the active healer, Allah is the authorizing authority.
This still does not provide an example of Allah healing someone Himself.
4. Contrast with the Bible (For Context, Not Polemics)
In the Bible:
Named individuals are healed (blind Bartimaeus, paralytics, lepers).
Diseases are specified.
Results are immediate and public.
Witnesses are present.
Events are narrated historically.
In the Qur’an:
No such narrative exists for Allah.
5. Final Evidence-Based Conclusion
Based strictly on the Qur’anic text:
❌ No named sick person healed by Allah
❌ No disease removed by Allah in a narrative account
❌ No healing miracle performed directly by Allah
✔ Only claims, statements, or generalized descriptions
✔ Healing acts appear only through Jesus, not Allah Himself
Therefore:
The Qur’an contains claims about Allah as healer, but no recorded healing event that serves as empirical or narrative evidence.
