Whoever visits an ill Muslim will be submerged in a sea of divine mercy, and whoever sits with that ill man will be accompanied by 70 thousand angels on his way back home.

Imam Jaffer As-Sadiq a.s.

Prevention is much better than cure. Not only should we look at curing people by improving our medical work but also we need to ensure stronger public health action with a focus on educating our brothers and sisters about health issues.
We must focus on the illnesses which are common in our brothers and sisters. We need to help those in difficult circumstances to gain access to a decent quality of healthcare.

By 2012 I pledge to ...

• • Create new eye clinics and new health centres to help those in need in our community.
•    
• • Formulate an action plan to advance health education and prevention techniques.
•    
• • Encourage a robust system of immunisation and vaccination.
•    
• • Create greater health screening to detect early warning signs throughout all the regions.
•    
• • Champion the idea of healthcare as a right for all.
