New Article: The Siwaak

Botanical name
The siwaak is the Arabic word for the twigs of the Salvadora Persica also known as Arak tree or Peelu tree, and is commonly referred to as miswak in the west.


Description

The siwaak is a natural toothbrush, toothpaste and dental floss. It comes from the Arak which is a small tree that grows up to 3 meters high. Its leaves are small, thick and oval in shape and its smell resembles that of mustard. It grows in hot climates such as Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Egypt and the other Equatorial countries. Its twigs are usually cut to a hand span in length and of medium thickness. When siwaak twigs are not available, twigs from the olive tree or palm leaf stalks are used.
Evidence from the Sunnah
There are many ahadeeth mentioning the importance and virtues of using the siwaak such as the hadeeth of Ibn Abbass that the Prophet (upon him be salah and salam) said : “I was ordered with the siwaak until I thought that something would be revealed in the Qur’aan in regards to it” [Musnad Ahmad no.2125, Ahmad Shaakir graded the isnaad Saheeh]; however the medical benefits are derived from the hadeeth where Aa’ishah reported that the Prophet (upon him be salah and salam) said “the siwaak is purifying for the mouth and pleasing to the Rabb” [Sunan An-Nasaa’ee no.5, Shaikh Al-albaabi graded it as sahih).....

Do they not look at the camels how they are created ?‏

In the name of Allah the most gracious the most merciful.

I seek his help and his support and increase my knowledge and pious
Do they not look at the camels how they are created? (surah 88,verse 17)

Can we count Allah's favour and bounties upon us?
Do they not look at the camels how they are created? How it is to help us in this life …
It has been fashioned is strange .it is extremely powerful and strong and big , yet gentle carrying our heavy loads and submitter and guided by a weak rider…subhan Allah.
Their flesh is halal for us to eat, benefits is derived from its hair, and its milk is drunk …subhan Allah.

Lessons drawn from these camels about patience and keep going with the hard hot weather to the right destination… be kind , be nice , be helpful , smile in your hard trip …as the creations (e.g. camels)of Allah swt is helpful for others …be jealous and protector and show care for your family as camels do … camels are not gays , camels don’t waste their times by listen to music unless we corrupt them , they are not selfish, they don't throw their kids in street without any care or merciful, they don't attack anyone , unless someone attack them and their family …camels our helpful creation … don't change the nature and the creations of Allah swt from what they created for.

The immune system of a single humped, dromedary camel is beginning to yield amazing secrets. For example, an increased ability to resist certain types of diseases including diabetes through the consumption of camel milk. As it is possible that the single-humped camels descended from the double-humped camel, scientists have every reason to think that a detailed study of the immune system of the wild Bactrian camel will yield scientific discoveries which will be of benefit to the whole of mankind. For example, how is it that the wild Bactrian camels survived 43 atmospheric nuclear tests and are still breeding naturally without any recognisable deformities? How has the wild Bactrian camel managed to survive on salt water that the domestic Bactrian will not drink?

The camel's antibodies find it easier to penetrate enzyme—active sites than human antibodies. This, and the relatively small size and weight of the immunoglobulin molecule, offer enormous potential, as it could be used to tackle diseases such as salmonella, TB, hepatitis C, skin disease and HIV, argued Jassim. Camel immunoglobulin could be used to neutralize a viral enzyme, he suggested. And it appears to be able to fight off various pathogens.

Purple Hat

Passing the Purple Hat to You
In honour of women's history month and in memory of Erma Bombeck who lost
her fight with cancer.

Here is an 'angel' sent to watch over you.
IF I HAD MY LIFE TO LIVE OVER -
by Erma Bombeck (written after she found out she was dying from cancer).

I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earthwould go into a holding pattern if I weren't there for the day.

I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before itmelted in storage.

I would have talked less and listened more.

I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was
stained, or the sofa faded.

I would have eaten the popcorn in the 'good' living room and worried
much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the
fireplace.

I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his
youth.

I would have shared more of the responsibility carried by my husband.

I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day
because my hair had just been teased and sprayed

I would have sat on the lawn with my grass stains.

I would have cried and laughed less while watching television and morewhile watching life.

I would never have bought anything just because it was practical,wouldn't show soil, or was guaranteed to last a lifetime.

Instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I'd have cherished
every moment and realized that the wonderment growing inside me was the
only chance in life to assist God in a miracle.

When my kids kissed me impetuously, I would never have said, 'Later. Now
go get washed up for dinner.' There would have been more 'I love you's'
More 'I'm sorry's.'

But mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize every minute.look
at it and really see it . . live it and never give it back. STOPS
WEATING THE SMALL STUFF!!!

Don't worry about who doesn't like you, who has more, or who's doing
what Instead, let's cherish the relationships we have with those who do love us.

Natural beauty

Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Mas’ud, Allah’s Messenger said, “He who has, in his heart, a grain of arrogance will not enter Paradise.” Someone said. “How about a person who likes to wear beautiful clothes and shoes?” Allah’s Messenger said, “All of Allah’s Affairs are Beautiful and He likes beauty; arrogance means ridiculing and rejecting the Truth and despising people.” (Muslim)



Natural beauty is when you look after your health, your hair, you body and you house without the side effects from the harsh chemicals. You can make these recipes at home but you can also get the ready made products. I have found couple of useful websites to buy ready made natural products.

This website has all the European natural/organic companies, but there may be charge for the delivery.

You may find Dr. Hauschka's products cheaper in the first website, but I added it as it has useful information about their treatments and their ingredients.

Recommended recipes:

  • Face

Mix a teaspoon of honey with the same amount of yogurt, massage into the face and leave for 30 minutes, then rinse the face.
