THE MIRACLE OF HONEY <\/span><\/span>
From their bellies comes a drink of varying colours, containing healing for mankind\u0085 ( Surat<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> an-Nahl: 69) <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Do you know how important a food source the honey is, which Allah offers man by means of a tiny insect? <\/span><\/p>\n

Honey is composed of sugars like glucose and fructose and minerals like magnesium, potassium, calcium, sodium chlorine, sulphur, iron and phosphate. It contains vitamins B1, B2, C, B6, B5 and B3 all of which change according to the qualities of the nectar and pollen. Besides the above, copper, iodine, and zinc exist in it in small quantities. Several kinds of hormones are also present in it. <\/span><\/p>\n

As Allah says in the Qur’an, honey is a <\/span>“healing for men”<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/b>. This scientific fact was confirmed by scientists who assembled during the World Apiculture Conference held in China<\/st1:place><\/st1:country-region> . During the conference, treatments with honey derivatives were discussed. American scientists in particular said that honey, royal jelly, pollen and propolis (bee resin) cure many diseases. <\/span><\/p>\n

A Romanian doctor stated that he tried honey on cataract patients, and 2002 out of his 2094 patients recovered completely. Polish doctors also informed the conference that bee resin helps to cure many diseases such as haemorrhoids, skin problems, gynaecological diseases and many other disorders. <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b>Nowadays, apiculture and bee products have opened a new branch for research in countries advanced in science. Other benefits of honey may be described as below: <\/span><\/p>\n

Easily digested:<\/span><\/b> Because sugar molecules in honey can convert into other sugars (e.g. fructose to glucose), honey is easily digested by the most sensitive stomachs, despite its high acid content. It helps kidneys and intestines to function better. <\/span><\/p>\n

Has a low calorie level:<\/span><\/b> Another quality of honey is that, when it is compared with the same amount of sugar, it gives 40% less calories to the body. Although it gives great energy to the body, it does not add weight. <\/span><\/p>\n

Rapidly diffuses through the blood:<\/span><\/b> When accompanied by mild water, honey diffuses into the bloodstream in 7 minutes. Its free sugar molecules make the brain function better since the brain is the largest consumer of sugar. <\/span><\/p>\n

Supports blood formation:<\/span><\/b> Honey provides an important part of the energy needed by the body for blood formation. In addition, it helps in cleansing the blood. It has some positive effects in regulating and facilitating blood circulation. It also functions as a protection against capillary problems and arteriosclerosis. <\/span><\/p>\n

Does not accommodate bacteria:<\/span><\/b> This bactericide (bacteria-killing) property of honey is named “the inhibition effect”. Experiments conducted on honey show that its bactericide properties increase twofold when diluted with water. It is very interesting to note that newly born bees in the colony are nourished with diluted honey by the bees responsible for their supervision – as if they know this feature of the honey. <\/span><\/p>\n

Royal Jelly:<\/span><\/b> Royal jelly is a substance produced by worker bees inside the beehive. Inside this nutritious substance are sugar, proteins, fats and many vitamins. It is used in problems caused by tissue deficiency or body frailty. <\/span><\/p>\n

It is obvious that honey, which is produced in much higher amounts than the requirements of the bees, is made for the benefit of man. And it is also obvious that bees cannot perform such an unbelievable task “on their own.” <\/span><\/p>\n

And He has made everything in the heavens and everything in the earth subservient to you. It is all from Him. There are certainly signs in that for people who reflect. ( Surat<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> al-Jathiyah: 13)<\/span><\/b><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n
