This article discusses 4 medical healthy lifestyles according to Islam which includes diet, sleep, exercise and spiritual mental.

All are equipped with the proposition of the Qur'an, Hadith, and medical health.

‍

1. Healthy eating patterns: Eat enough, don't overdo

Islam teaches balance in everything, including in eating.

The Qur'anic argument:

يٰبَنِيْٓ اٰدَمَ خُذُوْا زِيْنَocked يُحِبُّ الْمُسْرِفِيْنَ ࣖ

Meaning: "O Adam's children and grandchildren! Wear your good clothes on each (entering) the mosque, eat and drink, but don't overdo it. Really, God does not like excessive people." (Surah Al-A'raf: 31)

Ibn Kathir said, "Allah gathered all medical science in this half of this verse." Namely " eat and drink, but don't overdo it" . (Tafsir Ibnu Kathir)

‍

Prophet's Hadith ﷺ:

مَا مَلَأَ آدَمِيٌّ وِعَا favoriteَرًّا مِنْ بَطْنٍ بِحَسْبِ ابْنِ آدَمَ أُكُلَاتٌ يُقِمْنَ صُلْبَهُ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَا مَحَالَةَ فَثُلُثٌ لِطَعَامِهِ وَثُلُثٌ لِشَرَابِهِ وَثُلُث equip

Meaning: " There is no worse place than filling the abdomen of Adam's descendants. Enough Adam's Children to consume that can uphold his bones. If it is a necessity to be filled, then one third for his food, one third for the drink, and one third for his breath ." (HR. At-Tirmidzi)

Excessive eating patterns cause various diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and others. Conversely, the stomach is balanced, eating patterns that are sufficient to maintain endurance and extend life there will be good quality of health.

2. Healthy sleep patterns: adequate rest and qailulah

God created a night for rest.

The Qur'anic argument:

وَّجَعَلْنَا نَوْمَكُمْ سُبَاتًاۙ

"And we make your sleep to rest." (QS. An-Naba: 9)

وَمِنْ اٰيٰتِهٖ مَنَامُكُمْ بِالَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَابْlection

Meaning: " And among the signs (greatness) is your sleep at night and daytime and your efforts to find part of His gifts ." (QS. Ar-Rum: 23)

Enough sleep at night plays a role in the body's detoxification, cell regeneration, and strengthening the immune system.

‍

Sunnah Qailulah (a short nap):
Rasulullah ﷺ said:

قِيْلُوْا فَإِنَّ الشَّيَاطِيْنَ لاَ تَقِيْلُ

"Do Qailulah (nap), because Satan doesn't do it." (HR. Abu Nu'aim)

So, naps according to scholars become sunnah, before or after dhuhur for 15-30 minutes can increase focus, memory, and productivity afterwards.

Makruh sleep after dawn:
Sleeping after dawn is said to eliminate the blessing of morning time, like the words of the Prophet:

"O Allah, bless my people in the morning." (HR. Abu Daud)

‍

3. Patterns of motion: Sunnah sports that strengthen faith and physical

Rasulullah ﷺ strongly advocated his people to be physically or physically strong.

Prophet's Hadith ﷺ:

اَلْمُؤْمِنُ اَلْقَوِيُّ خَيْرٌ وَأَبُّ إِلَى اللهِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِ الضَّعِيْفِ كُلٍّ خَيْرٌ

 اِحْرِصْ عَلَى مَا يَنْفَعُكَ ، وَاسْتَعِنْ بِاللهِ وَلَا تَعْجَookْ

Meaning: "A strong believer is better and more loved by God than a weak believer. However, both of them still have goodness. Be enthusiastic about things that are beneficial to you. Ask for help from God, don't be weak." (HR. Muslim, no. 2664).

Sports that are discussed:

• Archery
• Riding a horse
• Swim
• Wrestle or other physical exercise

Islamic sports requirements:

1. Intention because Allah (not riya)
2. Cover the genitals according to the Shari'a
3. Not neglecting compulsory worship
4. Does not cause hostility or gambling

Modern example: Sports in the morning or walking every day while dhikr, which strengthens the physical and mentality simultaneously.

‍

4. Mindness, Mental and Spiritual Patients: Strengthen the soul with pleasure and qanaah

Mental health will determine the quality of life. In Islam, the peace of the soul is obtained from faith, qanaah (feeling enough), and pleasure towards God's destiny.

Prophet's Hadith ﷺ:

لَيْسَ الْغِنَى عَنْ كَثْرَةِ الْعَsp

"Wealth is not with a lot of wealth, but wealth is a heart that feels enough." (HR. Bukhari and Muslim)

إِنَّ عِظَ known فَلَهُ الرِّضَا

"Really a great reward comes with a big trial. If God loves a servant, then he will test it. If he is pleased, then God is pleased." (HR. At-Tirmidzi no. 2396)

Life and healthy is a test, as it hurts as well as a test so that we are patient. So, stress, complaining and anxiety can be reduced by strengthening faith, multiplying dhikr, and blessing to his destiny to always be grateful.
