Yummy olives…

Our beloved Prophet PBUH said:

“Eat the olive oil and massage it over your bodies since it is a blessed tree.”

“Eat olive oil and anoint yourself with it.”

**“Eat the olive oil and apply it (locally), since there is cure for seventy diseases in it, one of them is Leprosy.” **

Maybe those guys lived long coz they ate olives as people in the Medditeranean do.

I think olives and Salaah (prayer) are the reason, I find people who pray regularly are really happy and content, when I pray I’m on a constant high, like nothing in the world can worry me, I feel like I’m enclosed in this warm protective bubble… otherwise I’m quite vulnerable to depression… I think a healthy spirit are one of the reasons they probably lived long…

Academics/Arts/Sciences would have played a role too, people who don’t do nothing with their brains die of alzheimers.

If we followed Islam we’d all live long, happy, content lives… Islam teaches hygiene (tahaarah), prayer (salaah) which destresses and exercises us, forbids us from putting toxins (alcohol, tobacco etc.) into our bodies, teaches us to eat moderately in small portions, to exercise our bodies and brains…

jazakallah khair for this…I love olives.
