اللَّهُمَّ إنِّي أسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِذَنبي، وأسْتَهْدِيكَ لِمَرَاشِدِ أمْرِي، واسْتَجيرُكَ مِن شَرِّ نَفْسي، وأتُوبُ إليْكَ فَتُبْ عَلَيَّ إنَكَ أنتَ رَبِّي، اللَّهُمَّ فاجْعَلْ رَغْبَتي إليْكَ، واجْعَلْ غِنَايَ في صَدْري، وبَارِكْ لي فيمَا رَزَقْتَني، وتَقَبَّلْ مِنِّي إنَّكَ أنتَ رَبِّي
Milh (Salt)
مِلحٌ:روى ابن ماجه في (سننه): من حديث أنس يرفعه: (سَـيِّدُ إدامِكُم المِلحُ). وسيد الشىء: هو الذي يُصلحه، ويقومُ عليه، وغالبُ الإدام إنما يصلح بالملح. وفى (مسند البزَّار) مرفوعاً: (سَيُوشِكُ أن تكونوا في النَّاس مِثْلَ المِلْحِ في الطَّعَام، ولا يَصلُحُ الطَّعَامُ إلا بالمِلْحِ). وذكر البغوىُّ في (تفسيره): عن عبد الله بن عمر رضى الله عنهما مرفوعاً: (إنَّ اللهَ أنزلَ أربعَ بركاتٍ من السَّمَاء إلى الأرْضِ: الحَدِيدَ، والنارَ، والماءَ، والمِلْحَ). والموقوف أشبَهُ. المِلْحُ يُصلِح أجسام الناس وأطعمتهم، ويُصلِح كُلَّ شىء يُخالطه حتى الذَّهبَ والفِضَّة، وذلك أن فيه قوةً تزيدُ الذهبَ صُفرةً، والفِضَّةَ بياضاً، وفيه جِلاءٌ وتحليل، وإذهابٌ للرطوبات الغليظة، وتنشيفٌ لها، وتقويةٌ للأبدان، ومنعٌ من عفونتها وفسادها، ونفعٌ من الجرب المتقرِّح. وإذا اكتُحِلَ به، قلع اللَّحم الزائد من العَيْن، ومحَقَ الظَّفَرَة. والأندرانى أبلغُ في ذلك، ويمنعُ القروحَ الخبيثة من الانتشار، ويُحدِرُ البراز، وإذا دُلِكَ به بطونُ أصحابِ الاستسقاء، نفعهم، ويُنقى الأسنانَ، ويدفعُ عنها العُفُونة، ويشُدُّ اللِّثة ويُقويها، ومنافعه كثيرة جدّاً
Ibn al-Qayyam wrote : Salt: Ibn Majah recorded in his "Sunan," from a Hadith narrated by Anas that Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "The best of your condiments is salt." The "best" ~ Syed here signifies that which improves, enhances, or completes something. Most condiments achieve their full flavor with salt. In "Musnad al-Bazzar," it is recorded that Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "There will come a time when you will be among people like salt in food, and food is only perfected by salt."
Al-Baghawi, in his "Tafsir," also mentions a saying attributed to Abdullah ibn Umar: "Allah has sent down four blessings from the heavens to the earth: iron, fire, water, and salt," though the version stopping at Abdullah (not reaching the Prophet) is more likely to be authentic.
Salt benefits both the human body and foods, enhancing everything it touches—even gold and silver. For instance, salt increases the yellowness of gold and the whiteness of silver. Salt has cleansing properties, removes thick, damp humors, and dries out excess moisture. It strengthens the body, prevents decay, aids against ulcerated scabies, and, when used as an eye kohl, removes excess flesh around the eye and diminishes growths (Pterygium).
The Andarani salt (gem salt ~ الأندرانى Andarani ~ which is taken out from mines) is particularly effective. It prevents the spread of malignant sores, promotes bowel movement, aids in cases of dropsy when rubbed on the abdomen, cleanses the teeth, prevents decay, strengthens the gums, and has numerous other benefits.
We have checked pure seal-salt collected from the shores of Mastoorah in Saudi Arabia, & no doubt that it is the best salt of this world.
Ibn al-Bytaar wrote : Salt is a drying agent with cleansing, softening, and pain-relieving properties. It can remove excess flesh from wounds and reduce the spread of malignant sores. This salt is used in various remedies for treating scabies, cleaning wounds, treating eye conditions, and improving oral health. When combined with oil and vinegar and applied to the skin near a heat source, it relieves itching, cures scabies, and treats leprosy and stubborn sores. Mixed with honey, it helps alleviate throat swelling. Additionally, when applied with barley ash and honey, it strengthens the gums and heals mouth sores. This salt can also be used as a poultice to treat stings and bites, and mixed with honey, it alleviates the effects of snake bites. Applied with beef tallow, it helps treat scalp sores and abnormal skin growths. When mixed with oil and vinegar, it can break down abscesses. It can also help with earaches when used with vinegar, and prevent redness and inflammation in the skin when combined with hyssop. Some people burn salt on charcoal to use it as a remedy, while others bake the salt in dough to intensify its properties.
Salt, when subjected to heat, becomes more effective as it dries further, as observed by Abu Jurayj, who notes that salt in foods like cheese and fish transforms them, making them warming and drying. Salt has a dispersing effect, aiding digestion and inducing vomiting to cleanse excess phlegm from the stomach and chest. It also clears black bile and sticky phlegm from the body. In "The Mansuri," al-Razi states that salt enhances the flavor of foods, stimulates appetite, and aids digestion, although excessive consumption can harm the blood, weaken eyesight, and lead to itching and skin conditions. In "Removing the Harmful Effects of Foods," he emphasizes that salt counteracts body dampness and reduces greasiness in food, benefiting individuals with high moisture levels in their bodies. However, it may harm those with thin body frames. Other varieties of salt include salt used for baking dough, mineral salt, and rare types like andrani salt.
There are various types of salt, including: (1) Crystal-like Salt: Some types contain an oil that gives them a dark hue. When heated, the oil dissipates, making the salt resemble Andarani salt. (2) Black Salt: Comes in two varieties, one without a strong dark color or oily smell, and another with a slight oily scent. Both are moderately hot and help relieve phlegm and black bile. (3) Ammonium Chloride (Indian Salt~ NAUSHADAR): Known for its reddish hue, this salt has unique effects on the body.
Black Salt: Assists with digestion, easing phlegm and black bile. It provides relief from excess moisture in the body and stimulates appetite.
Indian Salt (Naushadar): It’s especially beneficial for those suffering from yellow bile or excessive gas. It can calm the stomach and chest, alleviate phlegm, and enhance heart health.
Andarani Salt: Known to sharpen the mind, Andarani salt has properties that reduce overgrowths in the eye and improve eyesight when mixed in eye treatments.
Oral Health: When dissolved in vinegar and used as a mouth rinse, it stops bleeding from gums or post-tooth extraction bleeding. Holding warmed salt in the mouth also relieves tooth pain.
Skin and Body: Used with a mixture of vinegar and oil, it soothes itchy skin, treats persistent scabies, and helps relieve blisters and other skin eruptions when applied regularly.
Respiratory Relief: Adding Andarani salt to eye solutions enhances vision, alleviates minor growths, and reduces eye discoloration. Combined with aloe, it aids in clearing sinuses.
Inflammation: Heated salt combined with vinegar and soap is effective for treating soft tumors, nerve inflammation, and joint pain.
General Health: When dissolved in Sakanjabeen (a traditional vinegar and Honey drink) or consumed with water, it clears blockages in the body, removes sticky phlegm, and can be taken in doses of up to two grams for best results.
Dawood Antaaki wrote: Salt can be either mineral (known as land or mountain salt) or water-based. The first type is moisture or vapor that filters through the earth near saline deposits. It is often refined through processes like sublimation or distillation. The second type is fresh water that flows into saline marshes. In both types, heat plays a role in thickening the moisture or water to extract the salt. If the land is sulfurous, the salt becomes black and oily. If the land is rich in red soil and water, the salt becomes clear and red, known as Indian salt. If the land is white and heat is moderate, crystalline sheets of salt form, known as Andarani salt. If the heat is intense, the salt forms sharp, bitter pieces, known as bitter salt. In balanced conditions, the salt is more varied in form and may appear as chunks or fine powder, called dough salt. The best quality of salt is Andarani, followed by water-based bitter salts and dough salt. Indian salt is rare, while the lowest quality is bitter mineral salt. Salt, in general, refers to substances like alum, lye, borax, and ammonium salts, each with specific uses. It is commonly used in various forms for medicinal purposes. Salt is especially effective in drying and dissolving phlegm, sticky humors, blockages, excess moisture, and for treating conditions like bleeding gums, rotten flesh, and wounds. When mixed with olive gum, bitter salt is particularly effective in treating the brain, sharpening the mind, and curing eye diseases, such as cloudiness and discharge. Andarani salt is especially useful for treating edema, jaundice, and certain mental conditions like anxiety or confusion. Indian salt works best for digestive disorders. Salt has many applications, such as:
For wounds and ulcers: It helps cleanse and heal wounds, especially when mixed with honey or vinegar.
For skin and hair: It is used in treating rashes, itching, and scabies.
For digestive health: It improves digestion and clears blockages in the intestines.
For mental clarity: Andarani salt is known to sharpen the mind and treat forgetfulness.
For eye health: It helps in clearing cloudiness and white spots in the eyes, especially when mixed with oil and honey.
Ibn-e-Sina wrote: Nature: Salt has a bitter and astringent taste, with bitterness resembling borax. It comes in various forms: some are soft, others compact, and some resemble crystals, while others are black due to their oil content. When exposed to heat, the oily content evaporates, leaving behind a structure similar to crystalline salt. There is also a type of salt from India that is black, not because of oil, but due to its intrinsic properties. Marine salt dissolves in water, unlike the land salt, which does not dissolve as easily. It is hot and dry, especially in the second phase of its action. The more bitter the salt, the hotter it is. Salt has cleansing, dissolving, astringent, and drying properties. Its astringency is the most powerful action. It increases wind in the body and, when burned, becomes even drier and more dissolving. It prevents rot and helps in reducing thickened bodily humors. The flowers (crystals) of salt are gentler than its burning form, and its dust is closer to the flower (crystal) in action, but it is slightly less astringent. The compact form of salt is less dissolving and gentler unless it is strong in flavor. When washed several times, compact salt becomes drying without irritation. The soft, flaky salt is sweeter in nature. If the burning salt is mixed with cold foods, it alters their properties. Andarani salt helps expel wind from the body. The more bitter types are stronger in dissolving and heating.
Cosmetic Use: Fine salt helps cleanse teeth, removing cavities and bad breath when applied as a paste. Used moderately, it also improves skin color.
For Swellings and Pimples: Mixed with honey and raisins, salt is used as a poultice for boils. It also helps with phlegmatic swelling when combined with fennel and honey, preventing ant infestations.
For Wounds and Ulcers: Salt removes excess flesh and treats ulcerated wounds and scabies. It can be applied with oil and vinegar near a fire to soothe itching, especially in phlegmatic conditions. When mixed with oil, it prevents blistering from burns. Salt is more effective than other substances in drying up moisture and then sealing the affected area.
For Joint Conditions: Salt, mixed with flour and honey, can be applied to sprained ligaments. It can also be used as a poultice for gout and, when combined with oil, massaged into the body to relieve fatigue.
For the Head: Salt mixed with colocynth fat is used for head pimples. Andarani salt sharpens the mind. Salt tightens loose gums, particularly the Andarani type, and when mixed with vinegar, it serves as a poultice for earaches.
For the Eyes: Salt helps in removing excess tissue from the eyelids and conjunctiva. The flower (crystal) of salt, specifically, can clear up eye cloudiness and whiteness. Salt mixed with oil and honey can be applied to the eyes, helping dissolve congealed blood within the eyes.
For the Chest: Andarani and oily salts, along with other types, help break up sticky phlegm in the chest.
