Shaykh Faraz Rabbani was asked why the Prophet advised us to "ask Allah for well-being" and that there can be no prayer more comprehensive than asking for 'afiya. So what is 'afiya? How should we ask for it?

The companions of the Prophet ﷺ were in absolute awe of him, as documented exhaustively in accounts of their time with him ﷺ. How did a man, known as the unlettered or illiterate Prophet ﷺ capture the hearts of friends and enemies alike?

Shaykh Faraz Rabbani gives us some idea in this brief podcast.

When Allah first told the angels that He was going to place Adam as a khalifa (vicegerant) on earth, the angels asked Him, "Would you place in it one who spreads corruption and who sheds blood?"

Given the state of humanity, this is a profound question. How did the angels know? And why was it Allah's will that they would ask this question?
