The doctor was still reading near the sick woman, who slept well with the help of an oxygen mask. Warqa got up and approached Dr. Miyad. She asked about her grandmother's health. The doctor put aside her book and said, "She's all right. Now I shall sleep for a while after doing my morning prayer. I 'll see you later today, God willing." "I don't know how to thank you," said Warqa. "You have been very kind and helpful. I am all alone." "You're not alone; Almighty Allah is with you.

You seem to be a committed believer, and faith can help you throughout life." Warqa thanked the doctor again and walked with her to the door. When she came back into the room, she saw the book, which the doctor had just left, and the title attracted her attention. It was entitled, Medicine: A Sanctuary for Faith . She wondered, “What does it mean? What relation is there between the two?

Curiosity prompted her to pick up the book. First she examined the cover, which showed a drawing of a human brain and the Qur'anic verse: This is Allah's creation, but show Me what those beside Him have created.

A nurse entered the room in the morning to give Warqa's grandmother a dose of medicine. A specialist and another female doctor also came in later. The doctor's hair was uncovered and her high heels clicked as she walked. She turned to give Warqa some instructions and Warqa noticed that her face was heavily made up.

Warqa saw a big difference between this doctor and Dr. Miyad, whose appearance was natural, and she was eager to see Dr. Miyad again. She needed her encouraging words wanted to ask her a few questions about her book. She wondered why Dr. Miyad had not returned. Warqa's grandmother was feeling better, and Warqa was glad to see her getting well. "I 'm so happy that you are well again," said Warqa.

"You don't know how worried I was yesterday.” Her grandmother replied, "I'm sorry to see you worry; especially since you are alone." "This time I wasn't alone. Dr. Miyad was here.
