Prophet: “Allaah has said the truth, but your brother’s abdomen has told a lie”
Allaah, subhanahu wa ta’aala, said (what means):
quote:
“Then, eat of all fruits, and follow the ways of your Lord made easy (for you).” There comes forth from their bellies a drink of varying color wherein is healing for men. Verily, in this is indeed a sign for people who think. (An-Nahl 16:69)
quote:
Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri (radiallaahu ‘anhu) narrated: A man came to the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) and said, “My brother has some abdominal trouble (pain).” The Prophet said to him:
quote:
Let him drink honey. The man came for the second time and the Prophet said to him, Let him drink honey. He came for the third time and the Prophet said, Let him drink honey. He returned again and said, “I have done that.” The Prophet then said: “Allaah has said the truth, but your brother’s abdomen has told a lie. Let him drink honey.” So he made him drink honey, and he was cured.
{Bukhaaree (Book of Medicine); Muslim}.
Imam Ibn al-Qayyim (rahimahullaah) in his book The Prophetic Medicine explained that the reason why the man wasn’t cured straight after taking the honey was due to much harmful properties in the man’s stomach that needed more honey for it to be removed. [Zaad al-Ma’aad 4/35].
