What is the guidance of the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, regarding food and sustenance? Did he clarify for us how to treat with various types of food and herbs? What should we do for prevention or treatment of diabetes and high blood pressure? Is it true that he commanded eating an odd number of dates, and is it harmful to eat them daily? How can one seek healing through the Qur’an? What are the authentic books, free from innovations, concerning treatment and prevention of diseases through food, herbs, honey, and the Qur’an?

The Book of Allah and the Sunnah (definition) of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, contain guidance for preserving human health and well-being. This includes the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, saying: "Healing is in three: in a cupper's scarification, or a drink of honey, or cauterization by fire, but I forbid my nation from cauterization." The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, also guided to black seed and sea costus.

As for modern diseases, they were not known by their names in his time, peace and blessings be upon him, but he commanded treatment.

Regarding eating dates, they are beneficial every day, unless the person is afflicted with a disease that prevents them from doing so.

Among the books authored on Prophetic medicine is "Al-Tibb al-Nabawi" by Ibn al-Qayyim.
