It is the ramazan of summers and such summers in which humidity is accompanied by loo (strong hot wind). So what? What is there to worry? A Muslim is happy with days of summers and nights of winters as during the long summery days, the reward of fasting is more and long wintery nights mean more time for tahajjud, manajaat and asking. Why not utilize this Ramazan the most? But we also desire for such ramazan in which we do not experience thirst. Come! Let me share with you a drink which you can prepare yourself at home but prior to that, listen to this incidence:
My maternal grandfather was himself a strong physician. He once told us that a Hindu hakeem sat in a nearby market. He had kept a matka filled with water and medicines were soaked in it. 2 bowls were kept; 1 for Muslims and 1 for the non-Muslims. When any patient of heatstroke visited him, he asked them to drink from that matka. Whoever drank, his health restored. More so, that bowl of medicine was not even repugnant. The Hindu hakeem was popular for chronic fevers, malaria, typhoid, anemia, stomach heat, acidity, and indigestion. Cost of 1 bowl was half aana and the medicine was for half aana; thus the patient became healthy in 1 aana.
This incident was in my mind. I was introduced to herbal science at home. When I stepped forward in herbal medicine, the marvels of that drink started revealing on me that this drink is a unique thing. With my observations and experiments, I added a few things. A man visited me. He said, “I start wheezing on taking few steps. This time I could not even do wheat harvesting although I have been harvesting since the last 50 years. I alone used to do acres of harvesting but now even little activity tires me and I start wheezing. What to do? I am worried. My sons say that father. Leave it. We are strong. I tell them that no son. This body should remain active and that’s the best for it. I want to work but my body does not support me. I am helpless and worried. What should I do? Previously I used to eat meals but now even few bites become heavy. Food does not digest. I feel ill.” A bottle of the drink was lying near me. I gave it to him and told him to dissolve 4 tablespoons in a glass of regular water & drink 3-4 times daily. He visited me again in 10 days. He was very happy and asked for three more bottles. I inquired the reason and whether everything is alright. He said, “With this medicine, my appetite increased, wheezing finished, heaviness cured and I am feeling relaxed. Constipation finished. I couldn’t sit in the heat previously but now I am. I perform domestic chores, give feed to the animals. MashaAllah I have 4 buffaloes, 2 cows, and 21-22 goats. Earlier I could not look after them but now I do. He was very happy. He said that some of the people of my village saw this and asked me to bring them a bottle too.
A man working in an office visited me. He said, “I want to sit under the AC at all times but electricity does not support me. My office is centrally air conditioned. When the electricity cuts off, I feel suffocated. My car is air-conditioned but even then I have perplexity in my temperament. My hand and feet have burning sensations. Intensity of heat and perplexity of my temperament is excessive. My health is deteriorating and my heart is disturbed. I feel anemic. I feel perplexed at all times. I feel either I am going towards blood pressure. Either stomach acidity or body heat is depressing me.” I told him that I will give you a pleasant thing; consume it. I gave him the same sherbet. He left and we dint met again. Patients come and go like this. One day he visited me and said that my problem healed that same day. Today I have come here for my son. I asked him that which problem. He said that the same old heatstroke, wheezing, burning of hand and feet and similar ailments. He said that the bottle you gave me benefitted me a lot.
Readers! This sherbet is a unique gift of Ramazan and especially Ramazan of summers. Prepare this beforehand. It is very cheap and priceless. It is equally beneficial for elders, children, old and young. Patients should use it modestly. Healthy can guard their life and their fast. It is beneficial during summers besides fasting as well. People who are freaking out due to ramazan in summers, although its reward is evident to them; they want to fast but they are worried due to their condition. Do not worry! I am giving you a brief gift. Make it and it will end your perplexity. You can make more and give it to friends has a present. If Allah has given you rizq then I would suggest you to make it and gift it to your friends and earn rewards of ramazan. It is most effective for such pregnant females who experience nausea and perplexity as well as for children who are unhealthy and weak. Children who are emaciated and instead of eating, keep drinking water, do not like home-made food, intake does not show on them, feel weak, and stay perplexed and cranky.
