Allah (Exalted be He) is full of grace for man; He created him in the fairest stature, and has

subjected to his use all things in the heavens and on earth. But – out of His will and

wisdom- He takes away from some people some of these bounties, whether they are

injuries or disabilities, whether being born with it, or becoming disabled afterwards.

No matter what caused it, the disabled suffers both physically and psychologically. Given

that God has ordained justice on Himself, they , the disabled, are compensated fairly for it

by Him; they have the same bounties in some other ways. For example, blind people have

superior memory skills. Also, persons with hands disabilities have many other skills.

Also, compensation for disabilities in this life can take place in the Hereafter. Every disabled

person should be patient and look for Allah’s reward:

Those who patiently persevere will truly receive a reward without measure!

(Az-Zummar 39:10)

As for the psychological harm disabilities cause, the Qur’an and Sunnah in various texts talk

about the remedies of such disabilities and disprivileges and God’s rewards in order that the

disabled’s hearts can find peace and contentment.



Qur’an and People with Disabilities







Leave it to Allah



The soul rests and finds peace only when having trust in God, and, therefore, feeling

satisfied with whatever God has decreed for them. That why Allah says:

And whatever favor is bestowed on you it is from Allah; then when evil

afflicts you, to Him do you cry for aid. (An-Nahl 16:53)

Explaining this verse, At-Tabri says: having good health and able bodies, having a lot of

money , it is from Allah alone, there can be no one other than Him. whatever happens in

this world happens by Allah's will.

,Afflicted with hardships, illnesses, pray to Allah God for the amelioration of the condition,

because no one other than Him could heal

In another place in the Qur’an, where much healing takes place, God says:

No misfortune can happen on earth or in your souls but is recorded in a

decree before We bring it into existence: That is truly easy for Allah: In

order that you may not despair over matters that pass you by, nor exult

over favors bestowed upon you. For Allah loves not any vainglorious

boaster. (Al-Hadid :20,23)
