Faith in healing from toothache

Islam is the way of life and there is a reason behind every thing the Almighty has created. Powerful dua for toothache: “And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.” Surah Adh-Dhariyat (51:56)

Similarly as we Muslims believe in the oneness of Allah ﷻ we also believe in the Holy Quran. But apart from believing we are not implying the teachings and the wisdom hidden in quran in our daily life. 

Did you think that Allah ﷻ sent 124,000 Prophets (may allah ﷻ be pleased with them) just to guide the humans to true path of Islam? Quran also emphasizes on spirituality’s power by guiding hearts to tranquility and strengthening believers through prayer. 

The main reason and goal of humans is always been to move towards perfection of soul and physical body is merely a tool.

Similarly, using prayer to cope with diseases is emphasized in Islamic texts. As Allah ﷻ says in Quran: ‘Call upon Me, I will respond to you (Surah-Ghafir). Therefore, the Prophets performed Salah before Allah ﷻ upon prevalence from diseases. 

In a teaching, it is mentioned that if someone has a toothache, it is good for them to recite this verse from the Quran: It is Allah ﷻ who has brought you into being and made ears, eyes, and hearts for you, but you give very little thanks. (Al-Mulk 67:23)

Taking care of your spiritual side is really important for staying healthy. In Islam, getting closer to Allah is the main reason for this life.

Spiritual health means using our minds and feelings in a way that recognizes where we come from, worshiping Allah alone, being humble, submitting to Him, and trusting Him. All of these things should show in how we act and behave.

Consume only Purified nutrition (halal foods).

In Islam, eating healthy or purified food holds great significance. Allah ﷻ emphasizes this in the holy Quran: You can eat all good things and what your trained animals catch. Thank Allah ﷻ before eating, and remember He sees everything. Allah ﷻ judges quickly. So, when your trained animals catch something for you, say Allah’s ﷻ name and eat. Be mindful of Allah. (Quran 5:4)

It holds excellent wisdom behind it. Purified nutrition is a food that complies with the humor of a healthy human. Likewise, foul food is something that humans taste, and nature repels it (pork).

The nature means that the consuming goods should be free of any filthy and or inflicted by unclean objects.

In Islam, the things we use must be clean and free from anything dirty. This means that our products should not have any dirt or impurities. Weather it can be seen or not.

Tips for consistent spiritual well-being

In Islam, taking care of our teeth is seen as a good and moral thing to do. Brushing our teeth is considered a gift from the Almighty and is part of our traditions and ethics of Prophets. 

According to twelve infallible Imams (عليه السلام), brushing your teeth makes Allah happy. Taking care of our teeth also adds to the goodness of our prayers. 

There’s a saying from Imam Sadiq (عليه السلام) that praying two units of Salah after washing and brushing our teeth is better than praying seventy units of Salah without brushing. 

When we care for our teeth, our wishes may come true in this world, and our worries may go away. It can even lead to salvation and being saved in the afterlife because Allah will be kind to you on Judgment Day.
