Healing in the Quran

I saw these two positive things on Facebook when you use hashtags #islam and #quran

The first one is from " Hadith of the Day "

The great genius of our religion, and one of the great truths of our Prophet (peace be upon him) is that he came as a mercy to everyone. He created multi-ethnic and multi-cultural societies. He had all types of people: Persians, Romans, Africans, Arabs from different tribes and he brought them into a fraternity of mercy. He had Jews and Christians and he honored them, and spoke to them kindly. He was not a harsh person, he was a gentle person. He created an open society. Our religion honours people and treats them with dignity. May Allah preserve in you the tolerance of Islam. (Shaykh Hamza Yusuf) What a beautiful quote about our Prophet (peace be upon him) MashaAllah!

The second one is from " Yasir Qadhi "

Allah says, "In their hearts is a disease, so Allah has increased [the severity] of their disease" (Surah al-Baqara: 10)
From this, we learn:
1) That just as the heart has physical diseases, so too it has spiritual diseases as well.
2) That the believer should monitor the signs and symptoms of spiritual diseases (including jealousy, hatred, envy, excessive love of material wealth, and so forth), just as every healthy person monitors his heart and pulse.
3) That just as bad food intake and lack of exercise causes harm to the physical heart, so too does continuous sinning and a lack of ritual worship and dhikr harm the spiritual heart.
4) That Allah misguides those who deserve to be misguided: they had an evil in their hearts, so they deserved to be increased in that evil.
5) Therefore, the one who has a pure heart will be shown guidance by Allah (as Allah says in Surah al-Anfal;70).
6) Ibn al-Qayyim mentions that there are two primary categories of spiritual diseases of the heart: the disease of doubt, and the disease of desire.
7) The cure for both of these types of diseases is the Quran and the Quran alone: "O you who believe! A beneficial reminder has come to you from your Lord, and a cure for what is in the chest, and a guidance, and mercy, for all believers" [Surah Yunus; 57]
May Allah make us from the people of the Quran - those whose hearts are pure and disease-free!

The Qur'an is a healing for the mind, body and soul.

Sahih International

And We send down of the Qur'an that which is healing and mercy for the believers, but it does not increase the wrongdoers except in loss.
