Is it permissible to supplicate for the healing of teeth without going to the dentist due to high costs and fear of fraud?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
A Muslim should supplicate to Allah Almighty in every state, for every need, and at all times, for supplication is worship. Allah the Almighty said: "And your Lord says, 'Call upon Me; I will respond to you.' Indeed, those who disdain My worship will enter Hell [rendered] contemptible" (Ghafir: 60). For this reason, one should supplicate for healing even if the sick person does not go to a doctor.
