Allah SWT explicitly describes the Quran not merely as an informational manual, but as Shifa (a profound cure) for spiritual, psychological, and bodily ailments.
وَنُنَزِّلُ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ مَا هُوَ شِفَاءٌ وَرَحْمَةٌ لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
“And We send down of the Quran that which is healing and mercy for the believers...” (Surah Al-Isra 17:82)
