This miracle food is mentioned over and over in the Hadith, and is also mentioned in the Qur’an. Allah says in the Holy Qur’an: “And the Lord taught the bee to build its cells in hills, in trees, and in men’s habitats; then to eat of all the produce and find with the skill the precious paths of its Lord: there issues from its bodies a drink of varying colors wherein is healing for men; verily this is a sign for those who give thought” (The Bee, 68 and 69). Honey has so many benefits that I won’t be able to list them all here. However, here are a few to let you know how priceless honey truly is. Honey induces sleep, its microbial properties help to heal sore throats and expel phlegm, it builds the immune system, it has anti-cancer and anti-bacterial properties, and it is also used to heal wounds and cuts. Raw honey is the best that you can buy. It costs a bit more, but its healing properties are far more intense when it hasn’t been heated to high temperatures.
