CORONAVIRUS
Okay so everyone is well aware about the current situation going on around the globe that how CORONAVIRUS is affecting everything. But not everyone is exactly aware about what is it? How is it spreading and what we can do to prevent ourselves and others around us. So I’ll just be sharing the basic knowledge about coronavirus today. As many questions pop up in our minds regarding this disease and this blog might help someone in some way.
What is it?
Coronavirus is a virus which is said to be found in animals and can rarely be transferred from animals to human, it is known to be caused by some kind of sea food and this whole thing has started from China from the end month of 2019 and has been spreading in other countries as well. Few of the cases have also been found in our country Pakistan. Moreover, adults are more at risk of it then children. In addition to the knowledge this virus can be eliminated at a very high temperature.
We don’t need to panic instead we need to act on it as we know ALLAH is the greatest and he has the control over everything.
And As our beloved Prophet said:
“For every disease there is a remedy and when the remedy is made apparent, and then the disease is cured by the permission of Allah Almighty'". [Muslim]
He also said: “He who has put diseases on the earth, has also put its remedy there”. [Tirmidi].
What are it' symptoms?

What precautions can be taken?
There has not been any cure or vaccine yet for this disease but you need to take precautionary measures to stay safe like
Aisha RA said that she heard the Messenger PBUH say,
“This black seed is a cure for every disease except death.” (Bukhaari).
This is a very alarming situation but at this hour of difficulty we just don't have to be worried about ourselves only but we need to take care of others too.
I pray to Allah that he keeps us all healthy and away from this virus and may those suffering from this get health soon. AAMEEN.
