[16. Surah Nahl: Ayah 68-69] “And your Lord revealed to the bee saying: Make hives in the mountains and in the trees and in what they build. Then eat of all the fruits and walk in the ways of your Lord submissively. There comes forth from within it a beverage of many colors, in which there is healing for men; most surely there is a sign in this for a person who reflects.”

[Sahih Bukhari: Volume 7, Book 71, Number 582] Narrated Abu Huraira (Radi Allah Anhu): The Prophet Muhammad (sal-allahu-alleihi-wasallam) said, “There is no disease that Allah has sent down, except that He also has sent down its treatment.”

[Sahih Bukhari: Volume 7, Book 71, Number 584] Narrated Ibn Abbas (Radi Allah Anhu): The Prophet Muhammad (sal-allahu-alleihi-wasallam) said, “Healing is in three things: cupping, a gulp of honey or cauterization (branding with fire) but I forbid my followers to use cauterization (branding with fire).”

[Sahih Bukhari: Volume 7, Book 71, Number 588] Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri (Radi Allah Anhu): A man came to Prophet Muhammad (sal-allahu-alleihi-wasallam) and said, ” My brother has abdominal trouble.” The Prophet Muhammad (sal-allahu-alleihi-wasallam) said to him “Let him drink honey.” He returned again and said that I had done that but nothing changed. The Prophet Muhammad (sal-allahu-alleihi-wasallam) said, “Allah has said the truth, but your abdomen has told a lie. Let him drink honey.” So he made him drink honey and he was cured.
