WATCH WHAT YOU EAT...

🔹The Prophet’s guidance regarding diet:

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to know what he was eating.

He used to eat what was good for him.

He used to eat enough to keep him going, but no so much as to make him fat. Ibn ‘Umar narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The believer eats in one stomach whilst the kaafir eats in seven.”

Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5081) and Muslim (2060). 🔹

Honey:

In the Quran, Allah, Almighty, Says (what means): 

"And your Lord inspired the bees, saying: ‘Take you habitations in the mountains and in the trees and in what they erect. Then, eat of all fruits, and follow the ways of your Lord made easy [for you].’ There comes forth from their bellies, a drink of varying color wherein is healing for men. Verily, in this is indeed a sign for people who think." 

[Quran 16: 68-69]

Honey is a cure for so many diseases, and it is the medicine recommended by our Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him who said: 

"You have the two cures: Honey and the Quran." 

[Ibn Majah]

Honey is mentioned in the Quran when Allah, Almighty, speaking about the rivers of Paradise, Says (what means): 

"The description of Paradise which the pious have been promised [is that] in it are rivers of water, the taste and smell of which are not changed, rivers of milk of which the taste never changes, rivers of wine delicious to those who drink, and rivers of clarified honey [clear and pure]..." 

[Quran 47: 15]

A man came to the Prophet peace be upon him and said:

"My brother has some abdominal trouble." The Prophet peace be upon him to him: "Let him drink honey," - the man came for the second time and the Prophet peace be upon him to him "Let him drink honey." - He came for the third time and the Prophet peace be upon him said, "Let him drink honey." - He returned again and said, "I have done that." The Prophet peace be upon him then said, "Allah has said the truth, but your brother's abdomen has told a lie. Let him drink honey." So he made him drink honey and he was cured at last."

How to improve memory:

Ali ibn Hashram, may Allah have mercy on him, said:

"I never saw a book in Waki's hands, the whole thing was in his memory, and I asked him about a remedy to improve memory, to which he said:" If I tell you about this medicine, will you use it?".

To which I said: "I swear by Allah"

He said: "Abandonment of sins, truly I did not find a cure for memory similar to it."

["Siyar", 9/151]
