Muslim scientists often find guidance in the words and practices of the Prophet Mohammad. The prophet did not confine his dealings with religion only; he also sought to address the various aspects of a Muslims life. Most important of these aspects is how to can a Muslim sustain a healthy life. Prophetic medicine refers to the actions and exact words of the prophet dealing with sicknesses, hygiene, and health in general.[1] According to the prophet, for every disease there is a cure. Therefore, prophetic medical traditions do not stop at following the teachings of the prophets; they encourage humans to search for cures as well.
Following the prophet’s death, many scholars who have been influenced by the prophetic tradition actively sought to follow the prophet’s words and research by any means possible for different cures and medicinal procedures. For example, Ibn Qayyim Al Jawziyya produced one of the most important works about “al Tibb-ul-Nabbawi.” in his 277-chapter book, AL- Jawziyya deals with different treatments of individuals as recommended by the prophet. It also talks about malpractice and hallmarks of competent doctor.[2]
Al-Jawziyya identifies specific remedies recommended by the prophet and deals with pharmacological studies on the use of various herbs and natural substances. Al-jawziyya also elaborates on the relation between medicine and religion.[3] 'Abd-ul-Rahman ibn abi Bakr al-Suyuiti’ wrote multiple of readings on prophetic medicine. He composed two works on prophetic medicine. One contained the practices of medicine by Mohammad and a second on sexual relations as ordered by the prophet.[4] Al Suyti’s book divides medicine into 3 types:traditional, spiritual and preventive. He listed preventive medical measures such as food and exercise. Others taught by hadith such as epidemics, use of tooth stick (siwak) and other practices.
