The answer

The default is for a woman to remain in her home, except out of necessity and in accordance with Islamic guidelines, as a way of honoring her and preserving her dignity.

It is obligatory to fear Allah by abandoning what He has forbidden, such as listening to music and watching TV series and other objectionable things. One must also beware of disobeying parents and strive to earn their pleasure, for their right comes after the right of Allah.

For healing from illnesses, (Islamic exorcism) is recommended, as is drinking honey, black seed, and Zamzam water with the intention of seeking healing, and increasing supplication during times when prayers are answered.

Adhering to Allah's command is obligatory and begins with sincere repentance. Seeking beneficial knowledge, listening to religious audio lectures, and having righteous companions can aid in this.
