Healing
Sources: 'abdu'l-baha In London'Abdu'l-Baha said: Disease is of two kinds: material and spiritual.
Take for instance, a cut hand; if you pray for the cut to be healed and do
not stop its bleeding, you will not do much good; a material remedy is
needed.
Sometimes if the nervous system is paralyzed through fear, a spiritual
remedy is necessary. Madness, incurable otherwise, can be cured through
prayer. It often happens that sorrow makes one ill, this can be cured by
spiritual means.
