Quran Cordoba - In the modern world according to the latest health journals, when everything is instant, many people begin to look back at natural and traditional lifestyles. One approach that began to attract the attention of researchers and Muslim communities is what is known as medical quran in the style of the Prophet.
This term refers to health guidelines sourced from the Qur'an and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad, which is now in harmony with contemporary scientific and medical findings. The Messenger of Allah had only been affected by disease once, and that was because he was poisoned and before his death.
The medical quran is not just a spiritual approach, but also practical and applicable in everyday life. In this article, we will discuss two concrete examples: the Prophet's favorite food in the form of pumpkin, and cold sweet drinks that he likes.
Both turned out to hold extraordinary medical benefits, as evidenced through various journals of scientific health.
Narrated from Anas bin Malik Ra, he said:
"I saw the Prophet Muhammad constantly looking for a pumpkin around a large plate, so that since then, I became happy with a pumpkin." (HR Muslim, no. 2041)
The love of the Prophet Muhammad in the pumpkin is not only a matter of taste, but also contains health lessons. In modern studies, pumpkins - especially the type of Cucurbita Maxima or pumpkin - known as rich in antioxidants, vitamin A, and fiber.
Interestingly, the pumpkin that is often discarded, such as seeds and skin, actually has great potential as a source of bioactive compounds. Studies from the journal Food Science and Technology (Saagedra et al., 2015) show that seeds and pumpkin skin contain high antioxidant compounds and strong antimicrobial activity.
So, from now on, don't throw away your seeds and pumpkin skin! Clean, bake, and use it as a healthy snack or other food mixture.

Aisha RA narrated, "The drink most liked by the Prophet is the sweet one." (HR Tirmizi)
This statement opens a large discussion room regarding the type of drink that the Prophet commonly consumed. At that time, sweet and cold drinks might originate from dates, raisins, or honey stored overnight, or cool mountainous tears.
Interestingly, modern studies confirm that natural and cold sweet drinks have significant benefits, especially after physical activity or in hot conditions.
According to research from the European Journal of Applied Physiology (Barwood et al., 2015), the benefits of consumption of sweet cold drinks include:
However, it is important to note that sweet consumption must still be within reasonable limits. Use natural sources such as honey, not artificial sweeteners or refined sugar.

Medical Quran becomes a health integration that does not stand alone. He became a bridge between divine instructions and modern medical knowledge. Every sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad apparently holds physical and spiritual wisdom, which if practiced, brings comprehensive benefits for humans.
Cold sweet pumpkin and drink is only two of the many examples of food and drinks that are praised in the sunnah of the Prophet. Many others can be traced, such as habbatus sauda, honey, dates, apple vinegar, goat milk, to zam-zam water-all of which become part of the treasures of medical quran which is constantly being studied by Muslim scientists and even non-Muslims.
In this modern era, when various diet and food and beverage trends have sprung up, the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad offer a simple, spiritual and scientific solution. Not excessive in eating, choosing natural food, and consuming with intentions and prayer is a part of the basic principles of Islamic healthy lifestyle.
By practicing the Sunnah of the Apostle in consumption of food and drinks, we not only follow in his spiritual footsteps, but also build a healthy and sustainable lifestyle.
The medical quran invites us to review how Islam has first guided its people in terms of physical and spiritual health. The Sunnah of the Prophet is not only ritual teachings, but also a life system tested by time and science.
Start from small: make it a habit to eating healthy, eating pumpkin, do not throw the seeds, and enjoy the natural sweet drinks in cool temperatures. Feel the benefits for yourself - not only for the body, but also for peace of heart.
"And we sent down from the Qur'an to be an antidote and grace for those who believe ..." (Surah Al-Isra: 82)
