With the amount of Saudi Arabians visiting london this summer.. the chance for the virus to spread greatlyyyyy increases since this is where the virus has said to originated from.
The virus currently has a very high mortality rate. A majority of those sufferers who died were diabetics and those with other immune deficiencies. I am diabetic type 1 myself. I have tried everything to get better, I am praying to Allah to make me better in the morning but i keep waking up worse. The illness has now reached my lungs and just breathing is so painful.
I have not been diagnosed officially, but I highly believe its the MERS corona virus. What else would it be? I have never felt like this before.
I just ask that you pleaasse, please pray for me to get well soon. I really feel like this illness might take my life with me being diabetic etc i have never felt like this before.
Please help

My dear brother know that whatever affliction or pain you are going through then you will be rewarded for it as long as you are patient and never question Allah:
Hadith - Bukhari 7:564
I visited Allah's Apostle May Allah's peace and praise be on him while he was suffering from a high fever. I touched him with my hand and said, "O Allah's Apostle! You have a high fever." Allah's Apostle May Allah's peace and praise be on him said, "Yes, I have as much fever as two men of you have." I said, "Is it because you will get a double reward?" Allah's Apostle May Allah's peace and praise be on him said, "Yes, no Muslim is afflicted with harm because of sickness or some other inconvenience, but that Allah will remove his sins for him as a tree sheds its leaves."
Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (Ra) reported that the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said: Whenever a Muslim is afflicted with a hardship, sickness, sadness, worry, harm, or depression --even a thorn's prick, Allah expiates his sins because of it.
(Muslim & Bukhari)
"Expect good, because Allah makes a believer's sickness an expiation (for his sins) and a period of repose. As for a disbeliever falling sick, he is like a camel whose owner ties it and then lets it loose --it does not understand why it was tied, nor why it was freed."(Bukhari)
So have full trust and hope in Allah. Get treatment and leave te rest to Allah being Patient for the sole pleasure of the Almighty:
The Prophet May Allah's peace and praise be on him stated that Allah, who is Blessed and Exalted, said "Son of Adam, if you show endurance and seek your reward from me in the first affliction, I shall be pleased with no lesser reward than Paradise for you."
(Al-Tirmidhi, Narrated Abu Umamah (Ra) [Ibn Majah transmitted it.])
