مُحَمَّدٌ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ أَبِي الْحَلَّالِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ قَالَ مُوسَى (عليه السلام) يَا رَبِّ مِنْ أَيْنَ الدَّاءُ قَالَ مِنِّي قَالَ فَالشِّفَاءُ قَالَ مِنِّي قَالَ فَمَا يَصْنَعُ عِبَادُكَ بِالْمُعَالِجِ قَالَ يُطَيِّبُ بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ فَيَوْمَئِذٍ سُمِّيَ الْمُعَالِجُ الطَّبِيبَ.

Where does illness come from?’ He عز وجل Said: “From Me عز وجل”. He said: ‘And the cure?’ He عز وجل Said: “From Me عز وجل”. He said: ‘So what do Your servants do with the healer?’ He عز وجل Said: “They soothe themselves by him”. These days the healer is called the Doctor’.
