A believer must try to maintain a positive outlook by understanding that the affliction of illness and fever are brought on by Allah’s permission, and will be lifted with Allah’s permission. Understanding that it is all in Allah’s hands will help us avoid falling into despair and instead help us focus on bettering ourselves and staying optimistic.
