Thibbun
nabawi is a method of medicine that is exemplified
by Rasulullah SAW. This method
involves simple medicine for many diseases. For many years people believe that
drug is the only savior for human’s health. They prefer to consume drugs rather
than to use natural sources in order to heal their sickness. However, it is
proven that drugs, especially chemical medicine, destroy our body health (Gray:
2010). He writes on his book that the trusted institution like as the world beneficial
pharmaceutical factory is cooperating with World Health Organization in order
to seize the citizen belief (Rasulullah
is My Doctor; 2010); so they will buy the chemical products and consume it.
People do this because they belief in the conviction that they will get well
soon from their illnesses after buying that drugs. The good news is that we do
not have to pay in a great amounts, to struggle in our life with the. We should
believe that the safest and the best medicine is that Thibbun Nabawi, the one and only medical treatment that bases on
the Koran and hadith. There are three reasons why we should take an action
toward Thibbun Nabawi.
Bukhari – (volume 007, book no. 071, hadith no. 622)
told by Rafi bin Khadij, “I have heard that Rasulullah SAW said, ‘fever comes
from the fire of the hell, so heal that by using water.’’’ The first reason is
that the concept of fever in this hadith is found many times earlier rather
than human invention to cure fever illness. In the hadith is written that fever
comes from the fire of the hell so we must heal it by the helps of water. Then
people discover that the effective medicine for fever is that compressing the
sufferer by using water. It proves that Thibbun
Nabawi is the most effective medicine because it has the basic concept of
disease and its medicine method. In surah An-Nahl
: 68 it is stated “and your God bestowing you, the bees, “build your own nest
in the mountains, in the wood’s trees, and in the place which are built by
mankind!’’ this surah explains about the decency of the bees. Allah says that
bees can build their homes wherever they want to. Later on it is also discovered
that the bees has many pertinences for creature’s life. We can use honey from
the bees to cure diarrhea and most importantly it also can heal influenza in
stock farm animals such as chicken. Koran and hadith is a great miracle gift
and there is no hesitancy about it. It is proven by the information contains on
it, after all it is not only the information. It can be shown that the best
treatment for fever is to compress it, and bees are useful animals because it
conceives honey.
The second reason why we should consider Thibbun Nabawi the best is that it uses
cheaper and widely available materials. In thibbun
nabawi, we do not have to afford such expensive drugs to cure the sickness.
It exploits the power of nature to heal our illness. For example the use of
bamboo leaves to expedite the period of women. Besides the affordable
materials, thibbun nabawi also does
not involving the complicated way to process the concoction. Take for the
example, to make our period come in a right time, we only have to boil bamboo
leaves, and make it into two cups then drink it in a day. Another example of it
is that the use of avocado leaves to cure headache. We have to boil five or
seven big avocado leaves from four cups to become two cups. Then throw off the
leaves and drink one cup of avocado leaves tea when it is warm. The avocado
leaves are used as a natural ponstan
to help curing headache (Rasulullah
is My Doctor: 2010: p. 161) People who practice this kind of medical treatment
do not need to be afraid of not finding the ingredients to concoct, because
bamboo leaves and avocado leaves are relatively available in many areas. More
importantly, it does not need to be a skill full person to make the concoction.
It only uses simple ways to process that medicine. One example is boiling the
ingredients.
The third reason why Thibbun Nabawi is special is that it is because it does not have any
contra indication for people who undergoing this medical treatment. Unlike
chemical medicine, natural medicine is much safer than the chemical one.
According to a research in the U.S during 2009, 783,936 people are death caused
by conventional drugs consumption (Rasulullah
is My Doctor: 2010). We should believe that the chemical bring negative impacts
to our body health. The conventional drugs only relief the pain causes by
infected part of the body, but this medicine will not drive out the main cause
of the illness itself. William Agger, MD, the director and the head of
microbiology and contagious disease in Gundersen Lutheran Medical Center, La
Crosse Wisconsin, says that 30 million pounds of antibiotic are consumed by
human and animal in the U.S. (Rasulullah
is My Doctor; p.228). It captures the excessive amount of drug uses in the U.S.
So what is the effect of consuming too many drugs? When it comes to our body,
it wills toxic our body. When the residue comes out from our body, it will
pollute the environment. Have we ever imagined if that substance comes back
again to our body? No wonder it will be the main agent which carry the virus
that causes cancer and attack our body defense. We should know that natural
medication is simpler, more practice, and safer than chemical medication.
Some people may say that thibbun nabawi is untrusted medical treatment because it is not
commonly used in our society, but I believe that in the future time people will
realize about the meaning of back to nature. We come from nature and we shall
go back to nature to reach the betterment of life. Take here for the example by
using medical treatment which is exemplified by Rasulullullah SAW. Rasul
is the messenger, the one who bring good news to his following’s sake. It is
impossible for him to spread the falsehood news. More importantly I myself
extremely believe that what nature gives for us is the best gift from God and
because of that we shall maintain and exploit the nature in a good way.
Some others people may also say that thibbun nabawi is not really reliable
because they still have to process it before using the concoction. For me it is
not a big deal to only pick up the materials near from my neighborhood and to
process it. It will not spend so much time. It is better to prevent by using
traditional concoction rather than to take the chemical medicine. Even if the
medicine is so easy to use I will proudly say that I will only take the instant
medicine solution if there were no more plants in my surrounding.
Thibbun
nabawi is an effective, simple, medical
treatment that is bases on Koran and Hadith and exemplified by Rasulullah SAW. Rasulullah SAW is the best model of health people in all era. He only
got sick for three times in his lifespan (Rasulullah is My Doctor: 2010: p.9). The
use of chemical medicine is really harmful and gives negative impacts for our
body health. Therefore, we should imitate the habit of Rasul which uses the aids of nature to help his body getting
healthy. More importantly, we should not take the chemical medicine carelessly
without thinking about long-terms effect causes by the drugs.
