Every year nearly 55,000 people are diagnosed in the UK. That's the equivalent of 150 people every day and nearly 12,000 people die from it every year, but despite these figures only just over half of the Muslim population attend breast screening. Why is that figure so low? Islamically we are responsible to Allah (SWT) for the care we take of our bodies. The Prophet (SAW) advised us to take benefit of our health before sickness, there are no guarantees in life, just as we cannot guarantee how long we have on this earth we do not know how our health is going to fare during this time. Today in breast cancer awareness week we discuss the issue of breast cancer and why we as Muslim women are not taking this seriously enough.
