00:04Health and Islam 7 Best Health Teachings by Hazrat Imam Ali, A.S.

00:09Best Health Teachings by Hazrat Imam Ali, A.S.

00:13Bismillah Al Rahman Al Raheem.

00:15Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatu Allahi Ta'ala Wa Barakatuh.

00:20Do you want to be healthy and feel good?

00:23Perhaps you will not find anyone not sharing this goal.

00:27Whilst there is a plethora of advice online and by experts, we have wonderful recommendations

00:32in Islamic teachings, including the sayings of the holy ul-Ulbayt A.S.

00:37They all lived a healthy life and would love their followers to be healthy too.

00:42For instance, I have personally found hundreds of narrations on healthy lifestyle from the

00:46commander of the faithful Amir ul-Muminin, Imam Ali, A.S.

00:52Here are 10 amongst many of his tips in this regard.

00:5510 Best Health Related Narrations

00:571.

00:59Oral Hygiene.

01:00In many riwayat traditions, Imam Ali A.S. encourages the usage of the miswak which is

01:06a teeth-cleaning twig which has been used for over 7,000 years.

01:10Although it is still widely available and can indeed be used, the emphasis in these

01:15narrations can perhaps be extended to general oral hygiene such as brushing the teeth, gargling

01:21as well as flossing.

01:22Your mouth is where the Qiyun is being recited.

01:26Imam Ali A.S. is reported to have said so hence purify it.

01:30In another narration, he says that cleaning the teeth pleases Allah, is the sunnah of

01:35the holy prophet and a cleanser for the mouth.

01:382.

01:39Washing the Body with Water.

01:40The commander of the faithful, peace and blessings be upon him, is reported to have said use

01:45water to rid your bodies from unpleasant smells, for Allah subhana wa ta'ala dislikes the unclean

01:51ones, especially those who smell annoys anyone next to them.

01:55Indeed, the holy Qiyun states that Allah subhana wa ta'ala loves those who purify themselves

02:012,222.

02:03We have all heard how cleanliness is part of Iman, according to Hadith.

02:08As Muslims therefore, we must practice what our inspirational leaders have emphasized.

02:13Showers and baths therefore, should be a very regular practice.

02:17Interestingly, in the book Makarim ul Akhlaq, it is reported that Imam Ali A.S. recommends

02:23drinking three handfuls of hot water before having a shower or a bath to remove any pains

02:28in the body.

02:293.

02:30Washing Hands Before and After Eating.

02:33Wash your hands before and after food, for this increases sustenance, risk, as well as

02:38improves eyesight.

02:40This was a Hadith from Imam Ali A.S.

02:43It points to the esoteric link behind some actions that we do to maintain personal hygiene.

02:49It will be both good for our bodies as well as result in favors of the almighty subhana

02:53wa ta'ala, such as more blessings from him.

02:574.

02:58The Art of Eating.

02:59In advice to his son, Imam al-Hassan alayhi as-salam, Amir ul Muminin, peace be upon him,

03:06states do not eat unless you are hungry.

03:08Leave eating whilst you are still hungry, and chew the food very well.

03:125.

03:13Do not overeat.

03:15Overeating causes illness.

03:17Excessive eating corrupts the soul.

03:19Be wary of eating too much for it darkens the heart.

03:23These are some of the narrations from Imam alayhi as-salam, highlighting the dangers

03:27of excessive consumption of food.

03:30Sometimes we find ourselves in situations where we lose self-control or feel pressured

03:34to eat.

03:35Even those may be situations where we may not be hungry.

03:39For example, we find ourselves when we have to eat from buffet or when we go from one

03:44invitation to another.

03:45Amir ul Muminin alayhi as-salam, once again links food consumption to the health of one's

03:51soul, the nafs and highlights how the path of spirituality is illuminated with moderation

03:56and avoidance of excessiveness.

03:58In the book Gura al-Haykam Imam alayhi as-salam, is reported to have said if you reduce how

04:04much you eat, your intellectual ability will enhance.

04:076.

04:08Night Worship.

04:09At first glance, you might be thinking, how is this linked to a healthy lifestyle?

04:14Well, in a number of traditions, it is reported that Imam alayhi as-salam said to stay up

04:19at night worshipping Allah subhana wa ta'ala, brings about health for the body, pleasure

04:25of the Lord, adherence to the ways of the prophets, and pouring of God's mercy.

04:30This is probably mainly linked to praying the night prayer, Salat ul-Lail, which can

04:34be prayed anytime at night, but preferably after midnight.

04:387.

04:39Personal Hygiene.

04:41Imam alayhi as-salam recommends that the nails are trimmed every Friday.

04:45In a hadith found in the book Tib Alema, Medicine of the Imams, he reportedly said such a deed

04:51protects against illness.

04:53Similarly, in book Makarim ul-Akhlaq Imam alayhi as-salam is reported to have stated

04:58removing the underarm hair reduces unpleasant smells.

05:02It is indeed the sunnah and a source of purification and what the Prophet has commanded.

05:078.

05:08Food Recommends by Hazat Ali A.S.

05:10Through looking at various sources, I found narrations pointing to what Amir ul-Muminin

05:15peace be upon him, used to eat and what he would recommend you and I to actually eat.

05:20Green vegetables, eggs, starting with a little bit of salt before eating.

05:25Pomegranate, bread, vinegar, vegetable oils, dates, honey, and milk, amongst many others,

05:32were mentioned by Amir ul-Muminin in narrations.

05:35In an interesting narration, Imam Ali alayhi as-salam encourages eating oats mixed with

05:40water or milk, like a porridge known as harissa.

05:44Eat the harissa, he says, for it gives you strength for worship for 40 days and it was

05:48the food that was descended upon Rasul Allah Salah allahu alayhi wa alayhi wa salam.

05:55Foods and Water Despite many of us not drinking enough water

05:58these days, Imam Ali alayhi as-salam recommends that excessive water consumption should be

06:04avoided as well.

06:05He tells us do not make your hearts die with excessive food and drink.

06:10For the heart dies like a plant if you drink too much water.

06:13Conclusion Some vices that are related to health.

06:17The commander of the faithful, peace be upon him, warns of the impact of some spiritual

06:22vices on the body and health in general.

06:25For example, it is narrated that he said the envious person is sick even if his body is

06:30healthy.

06:31Similarly, he is reported to have said to have hatred towards others results in ongoing

06:36illness.

06:37He also warns of the impact of stress and the need to distress to avoid illness.

06:42He stated, stress dissolves the body, or in another narration, sadness destroys the body.

06:48These are some of the gems from the statements of a man who is truly a role model for each

06:52and every human being and the best student of Rasul Allah Muhammad, Salah allahu alayhi

06:57wa alayhi wa salam.

07:00May Allah Subh'anaHu Wa Ta-A'la grant us the permission to follow in his footsteps.
