Abstract

This article is based on a survey on Muslim patients in Terengganu in relation to their understanding and acceptance towards health practice by the Prophet Muhammad. There are many peoples of Terengganu contracting diabetes, high blood pressure and heart problem due to a weak knowledge of health care practices according to Islam. A study on 210 respondents has revealed that only 13.8% know about the health care practices as recommended by the Prophet. Only 1% done it before falling ill, 6.1% of them occasionally practice it, 30% practice it rarely and 62.8% of the respondents never performed it. Diet practices also act as health indicator where 98.6% of the respondents consume food without control. Meanwhile, only 1% of the patients always take health supplementary food and 1.4% often takes it, while the rest simply ignore it. As a conclusion, the cause of illness begins with a failure to perform a good and complete health care practices.
