اللَّهُمَّ ربَّ السمواتِ والأرْضِ عَالِمَ الغَيْبِ والشَّهَادَةِ إنِّي أعْهدُ إليْكَ في هذهِ الحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيا أنِّي أشْهَدُ أن لا إلهَ إلا أنتَ وحْدَكَ لا شَريكَ لكَ وأنَّ مُحمَّداً عَبْدُكَ ورَسُولُكَ فلا تَكِلْني ألى نَفْسي فإنَّكَ إن تَكِلْني إلى نَفْسي تُقَرِّبْني منَ الشَّرِّ وتُبَاعِدْني منَ الخَيْرِ، وأنِّي لا أثِقُ إلاَّ بِرَحْمَتِكَ فاجْعَلْ لي عِندَكَ عَهْداً تُوفِينيهِ يَومَ القِيامَةِ إنَّكَ لا تُخْلِفُ المِيعادَ، أسْتَغْفِرُ الله الذي لا إلهَ إلاَّ هُوَ الحَيُّ القَيُّومُ وأَتُوبُ إليْهِ
The Izkhir (A kind of Lemon Grass)
Izkhir is the patent / wild grass that grows in Hejaaz, but the most valuable feature of Izkhir is that its name was spoken by Khairu Khalqillah Sallallaho Alaihe Wasallam, when he allowed to cut Izkhir from the plants of Makkah (Haram-ul-Makki)
ثبت في "الصحيح"، عنه صلى الله عليه وسلم أنه قال في مكةَ: "لا يُختَلَى خَلاَها"، قال له العباس رضى الله عنه: إلا الإذْخِرَ يا رسولَ اللهِ؛ فإنه لِقَيْنِهم ولبيوتِهِم، فقال: "إلا الإذْخِرَ”
Ibn al-Qayyim wrote: In the Sahih Hadith, it is narrated that Prophet Muhammad Sallallaho Alaihe Wasallam said in Makkah (about its plants): “Do not cut its plants.” Abass Radi Allaho Anh said, “Except for Izkhir, O Messenger of Allah for their blacksmiths use it (for fire) and it is also used for (roofing) their houses, so our beloved Prophet said: “Except Izkhir”.
لم يترك مصعب عند مقتله إلا نمرة، أرادوا تكفينه بها، فكانوا إذا غطوا رأسه بدت رجلاه، وإذا غطوا رجليه بدا رأسه، فقال النبي محمد: «غطوا رأسه، واجعلوا على رجليه من الإذخر
When Mus’ab Bin Omair Radi Allaho Anh was martyred, he left nothing but a small garment (called a Namirah). They wanted to shroud him with it (his Kafan), but whenever they covered his head, his feet became visible, and when they covered his feet, his head became visible. So, Prophet Muhammad Sallallaho Alaihe said, “Cover his head with it, and place some Izkhir grass on his feet.” (Tirmidhi 3853)
Izkhir is warm in the second degree and dry in the first. It is subtle and effective in opening blockages and the mouths of veins, promotes urination and menstrual flow, dissolves stones, reduces hard swellings in the stomach, liver, and kidneys when used as a drink or poultice. Its roots strengthen the teeth and stomach, relieve nausea and reduce abdominal bloating.
Izkhir grows in the wilderness of the killing desert, untouched by the human’s cultivation & irrigation, nourished & watered by Allah Alone, it is green when fresh but if it dries under the sun, Izkhir turns white. It has such a powerful & strong / pungent fragrance which reflects the harsh environment of desert (in which it grows), if you will bring a small quantity of dried Izkhir, the whole house will be filled with its pungent fragrance. You can find dried Izkhir with Bedouin people; they sell it near Masjid-e-Quba'a & Jabal Uhud in Madinah.
Ibn al-Baytaar wrote for Izkhir: Izkhir promotes urination and induces menstruation when used as a poultice or when drunk. It is also beneficial for tumors in the liver and stomach. Izkhir has a mild heating and astringent quality that breaks down kidney stones, promotes urination and menstruation, and relieves bloating. It induces slight heaviness in the head and has a mild astringency. Its flowers are beneficial for those who cough up blood and for pains in the stomach, lungs, liver, and kidneys.
Masih Al-Dimashqi: The herb is hot and dry in the second degree.
Al-Razi: Useful as a poultice for hard swelling in the liver and stomach.
Ibn Sina (Avicenna): Relieves internal pains, especially in the womb, strengthens and dries excess moisture in the tissues. Its flowers purify the head.
Dawood Antaki wrote for Izkhir : Izkhir is classified as hot in the third degree, while others say in the second degree, and drying in the first. It is known to clear and open up blockages due to its heat and sharpness, helping to reduce swellings and alleviate pain, particularly from dental issues when used as a mouthwash or ointment. It counteracts poisons and drives away pests, even bedbugs, and helps in eliminating waste and breaking down kidney stones. It prevents blood spitting and cleanses the chest and stomach, particularly when combined with Mastic gum (Mastagi Roomi) for excess phlegm, and with “Sakanjabeen” for the spleen, and with “water of vetiver” for difficulty in urination.
Ibn-e-Sina wrote: Idhkhir comes in several varieties: a fragrant nomadic (Bedouin) type, a non-aromatic wild type, a fine and more solid variety, and a coarser and softer type with no scent. The best Idhkhir is the aromatic nomadic variety. Its blossoms have a reddish hue, and when cracked open, they turn purplish. The fine variety is fragrant, resembling the scent of roses when crushed by hand. Its most potent benefits lie in its blossoms, flowers, roots, and stalks, which are sharp-tasting and mildly pungent to the tongue. The roots are highly astringent, while the blossoms have mild warming properties and slightly less astringency. The nomadic type is considered warm in the second degree. Idhkhir is astringent and beneficial for stopping blood spitting from any source. Its oil has dissolving and astringent effects, with the roots being the most potent in these properties. It can constipate, soften, and open veins while alleviating internal pain, especially in the uterus, and helps dissipate gases.
Wounds and Ulcers: Its oil is effective in relieving itching, even in animals.
Swelling and Pimples: Decoctions of Idhkhir are beneficial for treating hot swellings and internal firmness, whether used as a drink, poultice, or decoction. It is also effective for cold swellings in internal organs.
Joints and Limbs: Beneficial for muscles and relieves cramps when a quarter of a mithqal (about 1.25 grams) is consumed with pepper. Its oil alleviates fatigue.
Head and Sensory Organs: The wild variety can cause heaviness in the head, while the finer variety may induce headaches. The coarser type has sedative properties. Its seeds have numbing effects, and overall, it strengthens vision and dries excess moisture in the eyes. Its blossoms cleanse the head.
Respiratory System and Chest: Effective for relieving lung pain. Its blossoms are beneficial for spitting blood.
Digestive System: The roots strengthen the stomach and stimulate appetite. Consuming one mithqal of the roots (approximately 4.25 grams), particularly with an equal amount of pepper, alleviates nausea. Its blossoms soothe stomach pain and are effective against swelling in the stomach and liver.
Reproductive and Excretory Organs: Particularly effective for uterine pain. Sitting in its decoction helps with uterine inflammation, especially hot swellings. It can also be instilled or consumed as a drink to treat these issues. Its seeds help dissolve stones and constipate, especially the wild types, and stop uterine bleeding. Its blossoms alleviate kidney pain, stop bleeding from the kidneys, and treat swelling in the anal region.
Poisons: The coarser type, when applied as a poultice with fresh leaves near its root, is beneficial for insect and venomous bites.
