Is Anthrax an Ayah (Sign)?

"... ayat (signs, proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, etc.) that indicate the approach of the Hour ... the conquest of Jerusalem, a plague that will afflict you (and kill you in great numbers) as the plague that afflicts sheep ..." (Sahih Bukhari)

Anthrax is quickly spreading throughout our nation. As I was listening to the radio, a caller asked if flushing out the nose with water would aid in the expiation of inhaled anthrax. The expert responded in the affirmative. He said that flushing the nose with water would aid in the expiation of inhaled anthrax. The expert also mentioned that washing the hands regularly was an aid not only in protection from anthrax but overall for good health. This expert was a vetranarian. He was the expert because anthrax originates from an affliction upon animals (sheep?). It later afflicted a group of farmers, and is now is spreading amongst humans.

The third caliph of Islam, Uthman [may Allah (God) be pleased with him], called for water to make wudu and washed his hands three times... then said, "I saw the final messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) make wudu just as I have made wudu." (Sahih Bukhari and Muslim)

The final messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, "When one of you makes wudu then let him enter water into his nose, then expel it." (Sahih Bukhari, Muslim and Abu Dawud)

Muslims make wudu (ablution) fives time or more a day when preparing for formal prayer. The first step in the wudu process is washing both hands up to the wrist making sure that no part of the hands are left dry, especially between each finger. Another part of the wudu process is sniffing water into the nose thrice by breathing water into the backmost part of the nose and then ejecting the water from the nose.

"A cure (for the believers) for every disease except death." (Sahih Bukhari)

Black seed, Black cumin, Nigella sativa, Kalonji, Schwarzcummel, sinouj, Nutmeg flower, Black caraway, Habba sowda, fennel flower... this is "the medicine of the prophet"! The final messenger (pbuh) was sent to all of mankind. His name? Muhammad ibn Abdullah the direct descendant of Ibrahim (Abraham) from Ismaeel (Ishmael), peace be upon them all! The history of the black seed is no secret in Islam!

The majority of our health problems have the same causes- infection by micro-organisms such as bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi. Black seed is effective in treating the body as a whole and fights the actual cause of the symptoms. Black seed can be used in many ways.

My own father-in-law (Muslim) was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor many years ago. He was given a heavy concentration of black seeds for three days and the tumor disappeared, Alhamdulillah (all praise be to Allah)! My father-in-law is still alive today free of cancer, Alhamdulillah!

Sister Karen (Muslim) was bitten by a poisonous spider (a brown recluse, sometimes called a brown widow or a brown fiddle spider). The fate of one bitten by a brown recluse spider is death within two days. Sister Karen applied black seed oil to the affected area and overnight the swelling ceased and the redness dramatically reduced! A dry, cracking skin area the size of a half dollar (surrounding the center of the bite) came off, and underneath was smooth, healing skin!!! Weeks later, the only remnant or clue that she had ever been bitten was a tiny (1/8" diameter) pinkish, shiny mark on the skin, much like what a healed burn might look like, Subhana-Allah (Glory be to Allah)!

The ayat (signs) of Allah (God) are many. Firaun (Pharoah) is the symbol of tyranny and oppression in the Quran (final revelation). Let's look at the ayat (signs) given to Firaun (Pharoah) and his people:

"And indeed We punished the people of Firaun (Pharaoh) with years of drought and shortness of fruits (crops, etc.), that they might remember (take heed)." (Quran Al-A'raf 7:130)

* Years of drought and shortness of fruit! No rain and less fruit.

"So We sent on them: the flood, the locusts, the lice, the frogs, and the blood: (as a succession of) manifest signs, yet they remained arrogant, and they were of those people who were Mujrimun (criminals, polytheists, sinners, etc.)." (Quran Al-A'raf 7:133)

* The flood of the Nile river! It flooded onto the banks and covered their fields. It was an amazing flood. It stuck there. The water wouldn't go anywhere, so they couldn't plant in their fields.

* Locust! Allah (God) sent clouds of locust that would block the sun. Locust would march over their fields and eat anything in front of them. Locust would eat all the plants and trees leaving them dead. Locust marched on houses and ate the wood. This was a miracle from Allah (God), a destruction that went over Egypt.

* Lice and ticks! These insects bite the body and suck the blood. Allah (God) sent lice and ticks in millions. Their clothes would be filled inside with lice and ticks. When they would go into their beds it would be lined up with ticks. Wherever they went their would be lice. The lice and ticks would fly in and over their houses. Lice and ticks would fly over their bodies. Their life was miserable.

* Frogs! A man would put on his clothes and frogs would jump on his body. She would open her mouth to eat and frogs would jump in her mouth. While he ate food frogs would hop over it. She went to bed crushing frogs under her. Frogs would be everywhere they went. A group of them would be eating and frogs would jump into their food. They would open their mouths and their mouths would be filled with frogs.

* Blood! They would take water from the Nile river. By the time they reached home it was thick blood. The people of Egypt would take water out of the well. When they went to drink it would be thick blood. Bani Israel (Children of Israel) would take out water from the Nile river and drink it as water. Bani Israel (Children of Israel) would take water from the wells and it would be water. With the Eyptians and the people of Firaun (Pharoah) it would be blood. What could they do? They needed to drink.

"And when the punishment fell on them they said: "O Musa (Moses)! Invoke your Lord for us because of His Promise to you. If you will remove the punishment from us, we indeed shall believe in you, and we shall let the Children of Israel go with you." (Quran Al-A'raf 7:134)

With each ayah (sign) they were afflicted with great suffering and ran to Musa (Moses) to make du'a to Allah (God) to release them from their punishment.

"But when We removed the punishment from them to a fixed term, which they had to reach, behold! They broke their word!" (Quran Al-A'raf 7:135)

Each time Musa (Moses) made du'a and each time Allah (God) released their punishment. Allah (God) gave the people of Firaun (Pharoah) enough chances, but they insisted on Kufr (disbelief). After all the ayat (signs) Firaun (Pharoah) still proclaimed that he was God!

"They said [to Musa (Moses)]: "Whatever Ayat (signs, proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, etc.)you may bring to us, to work therewith your sorcery on us, we shall never believe in you." (Quran Al-A'raf 7:132)

"O mankind! Be dutiful to your Lord, Who created you from a single person (Adam), and from him (Adam) He created his wife [Hawwa (Eve)], and from them both He created many men and women and fear Allah (God) through Whom you demand your mutual (rights), and (do not cut the relations of) the wombs (kinship). Surely, Allah (God) is Ever an All-­Watcher over you." (An-Nisa 4:1)

"O you who believe! Fear Allah (God) [by doing all that He has ordered and by abstaining from all that He has forbidden] as He should be feared. [Obey Him, be thankful to Him, and remember Him always], and die not except in a state of Islam (as Muslims) with complete submission to Allah (God)." (Al-Imran 3:102)

"Truly, the religion with Allah (God) is Islam..." (Al-Imran 3:19)

Verily, those who belie Our Ayat (signs, proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, etc.) and treat them with arrogance, for them the gates of heaven will not be opened, and they will not enter Paradise until the camel goes through the eye of the needle (which is impossible). Thus do We recompense the Mujrimun (criminals, polytheists, sinners, etc.)." (Quran Al-A'raf 7:40)


* Allah is simply the Arabic word for God. Even Arab Jews and Christians use the word Allah for God.
