Kalonji Oil 100Ml

Nigella Sativa, also known as black seed, was found in Tutankhamen's tomb, suggesting its significance in ancient Egyptian practices. While the exact role of black seed in Egyptian culture remains unknown, it is understood that items buried with a king were carefully chosen to aid him in the afterlife. The earliest written mention of black seed can be found in the book of Isaiah in the Old Testament. Isaiah compares the harvesting of black cumin to that of wheat, implying its importance (Isaiah 28:25, 27 NKJV). The Hebrew word for black cumin, "Ketsah," according to Eastons Bible Dictionary, undeniably refers to Nigella Sativa, a small annual plant that grows wild in Mediterranean countries and is cultivated in Egypt and Syria for its seeds.

Discoredes, a Greek physician from the 1st century A.D., recorded the use of black seeds in treating ailments such as headaches, nasal congestion, toothache, and intestinal worms. He also noted their diuretic properties, their ability to induce menstruation, and promote milk production in women. The Muslim scholar al-Biruni, who lived from 973 to 1048, mentioned black seed as a type of grain called alwanak in the sigzi dialect, as documented in his treatise on the origins of Indian and Chinese drugs. This was later confirmed by Suhar Bakht, who referred to it as habbii-l-sajzi or Sigzi grains. This use of the term "grains" indicates the potential nutritional value of black seed during the 10th and 11th centuries.

In the Graco-Arab/Unani-Tibb system of medicine, which originated from Hippocrates, Galen, and ibn Sina, black seed has been recognized as a valuable remedy for hepatic and digestive disorders. It has been described as a stimulant for various conditions caused by an imbalance of cold humors. According to Hazrat Abu Hurerah (R.A), a companion of the Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W), black granules (Kalonji) is a remedy for all diseases except death. This statement is found in the hadiths of Bukhari, Muslim, Ibne-Maja, and Masnade Ahmed.

Salim Bin Abdullah confirms this statement and adds that Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) also emphasized the importance of using black granules for all diseases except death. This is mentioned in Masnade Ahmed, as well as in the writings of Hazrat Aisha (R.A.), Ibnul Jozi, and Tarmaze quoting Abu Hurerah (R.A.). Hazrat Badreeh (R.A.) also writes that the Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) declared that there is a remedy for all diseases except death in black seed (Kalonji). Abdullah Bin Badreeh also supports this claim, mentioning it in Masnad-e-Ahmed, where it is stated that Abu Hurerah (R.A.) said, "There is the only remedy for all diseases except death."

Additionally, in Kutub-Seerat, it is mentioned that the Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) himself consumed black seed by mixing it with honey, emphasizing its importance and necessity for health.

Overall, black seed, or Nigella Sativa, has a long history of use in various cultures, including ancient Egypt and Islamic traditions, for its potential medicinal properties.
