Which verses did the Messenger, peace and blessings be upon him, use to treat a stomach ailment?
The verse that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, used for treating stomach ailments is the words of Allah Almighty: "And your Lord inspired the bee: 'Take for yourselves dwellings from the mountains, and from the trees, and from what they construct. Then eat from all the fruits and follow the ways of your Lord made easy.' There emerges from their bellies a drink, varying in colors, in which there is healing for people. Indeed, in that is a sign for a people who give thought." (An-Nahl: 68-69). This is supported by the of Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri, that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, commanded a man to give his brother honey when he complained of stomach pain, and he said: "Allah has spoken the truth, and your brother's stomach has lied." Honey removes phlegm, cleanses the stomach lining, expels waste from it, warms it, and clears its obstructions.
