Ustadh AbdulAziz al-Haqqan

Seeking treatment does not contradict reliance on Allah, and Imam Ibn Baz said that abandoning the means altogether goes against the Sharīʿah and reason, so the duʿā at the Kaʿbah is made alongside treatment, not in place of it. Imam Ibn Baz held treatment to be recommended, while Shaykh Ibn Uthaymin and Shaykh al-Albani held it becomes obligatory when its benefit is likely and leaving it risks death.
