Among the most famous books on Prophetic Medicine is "Al-Tibb al-Nabawi" by Imam Ibn al-Qayyim, which is extracted from his book "Zad al-Ma'ad." Imam al-Bukhari also dedicated a book to medicine in his Sahih, and Ibn Hajar explained it in the tenth volume of Fath al-Bari. Scholars of Hadith have also focused on collecting what relates to medicine and diseases from the Prophetic Sunnah, among them are Al-Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud, Ibn Majah, and Al-Nasa'i.
