Plantar Fasciitis

لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا ۚ لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا مَا اكْتَسَبَتْ ۗ رَبَّنَا لَا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِن نَّسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا ۚ رَبَّنَا وَلَا تَحْمِلْ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِنَا ۚ رَبَّنَا وَلَا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ

"Allah does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacity. It will have [the consequence of] what [good] it has gained, and it will bear [the consequence of] what [evil] it has earned. Our Lord, do not impose blame upon us if we have forgotten or erred. Our Lord, and lay not upon us a burden like that which You laid upon those before us. Our Lord, and burden us not with that which we have no ability to bear."

Surah Al-Baqarah · 2:286

This verse is invoked in classical Tibb for patients with chronic musculoskeletal burdens that limit standing and walking capacity, specifically addressing the burden (iṣr) of weight-bearing pain that plantar fasciitis imposes on the feet.

هُوَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الْأَرْضَ ذَلُولًا فَامْشُوا فِي مَنَاكِبِهَا وَكُلُوا مِن رِّزْقِهِ ۖ وَإِلَيْهِ النُّشُورُ

"It is He who made the earth tame for you - so walk among its slopes and eat of His provision - and to Him is the resurrection."

Surah Al-Mulk · 67:15

Classical scholars reference this verse when discussing disorders that impede walking (al-mashi), as plantar fasciitis directly impairs the Divine gift of mobility upon the earth's surface.
