Summary
There are authentic hadiths stating that every disease Allah sends down is accompanied by a cure. The word sent down is understood as knowledge of the disease conveyed to the Prophet through Jibril, or as the ability to treat it. Muslims are encouraged to seek treatment using lawful means and are forbidden from using haram or impure substances. According to al-Majmu', this prohibition applies when pure alternatives are available, and it does not apply when there is a genuine need.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Kesimpulannya, memang terdapat hadith yang sahih menyatakan bahawa setiap penyakit yang diturunkan oleh Allah SWT, pasti akan diturunkan penawar bersama dengannya.
