Is surgery prohibited in the Quran?


Question:
.
Could you tell me if surgery is prohibited in the Quran? I was told that 4:119 prohibits us from having any surgery on our bodies, wasalam.

Reply:

All medical knowledge available to us is God-given. God provides us with such knowledge so that we are able to better our lives and cure illnesses.
Those who prohibit surgery do not have any Quranic evidence to stand on.
