ABOUT THE BOOK

Healing with the Medicine of the Prophet (originally titled Tibb al-Nabawi) is a timeless masterpiece that bridges the gap between spiritual well-being and physical health. This "Zerox" or economy edition brings the profound wisdom of Imam Ibn Qayyim Al-Jauziyah to a wider audience, offering a holistic approach to medicine based on the Quran, the Sunnah (Prophetic traditions), and the empirical observations of the 14th century.

The book is structured into several vital components:

• The Philosophy of Health: Ibn Qayyim argues that health is a balance between the soul and the body, and that true healing must address both.
• Prophetic Remedies: Detailed descriptions of natural substances mentioned in Hadith, such as Black Seed (Habbat al-Barakah), Honey, Olive Oil, and Talbinah (barley broth).
• Prevention and Hygiene: Guidelines on diet, sleep, exercise, and emotional regulation (managing anger and grief) as a means of preventing illness.
• Spiritual Healing: The use of Ruqyah (incantations from the Quran) and prayer to treat psychological and spiritual ailments.
• Surgical and Physical Procedures: Insights into traditional practices like Hijama (Cupping) and their perceived benefits.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Imam Ibn Qayyim Al-Jauziyah (1292–1350 CE) was a towering figure of Islamic scholarship during the Mamluk era. A primary student of the famous polymath Ibn Taymiyyah, Ibn Qayyim was a master of many disciplines, including theology, jurisprudence (Fiqh), and psychology.

His unique contribution to medicine was his ability to synthesize scriptural evidence with the "Medicine of the Ancients" (Greek and Persian traditions). He believed that the Prophet’s guidance on health was not just ritualistic but based on universal truths. Beyond medicine, his works like The Madarij al-Salikin (Ranks of the Divine Seekers) are considered some of the deepest explorations of the human heart and soul in Islamic history.
