The Prophet's guidance on treating pleurisy
The doctors divide pleurisy into two types, real and unreal. The first type is an infected growth that appears in the pleura that coats the ribs. The second type causes a similar pain and attacks the pleura as a result f thick. The pain caused by the unreal pleurisy is acute while the real pleurisy causes stinging pain.
Sea-costus (Indian costus) is used to treat the unreal pleurisy. When the Indian costus is ground to fine powder, blended with hot oil and then used as an ointment on the affected area, or when the ailing person licks it, it will be a good cure for that ailment. In this case, the costus decomposes the septic substances, strengthens the internal organs dissipates the wind, opens the clogs, helps against pleurisy and dries out excess moistures.
Thatul janb is a dangerous disease. An authentic Hadith related by Umm Salamh reads, ''The final ailment that the Messenger of Allah suffered from started while he was in Maymunah's house, Whenever the Prophet felt the pain had eased, he would go out and lead the people in prayer. Whenever the pain intensified, he would say, 'Order Abu Bakr to lead the people in prayer. The pain kept intensifying until the Prophet lost consciousness. When the pain intensified, his wives, his uncle Abbas, Umm Al-Fadhl bint Al-Hlarith and Asma bint 'Umais discussed among each other about giving a medicine to the Prophet and they did just that while he was unconscious.
When he woke up, he said, 'Who did this to me. This is the work of some women who came from there, pointing to the direction of Ethiopia with his hands Umm Salamah and Asma were the ones who had administered the medicine to the Prophet (they were among those who had migrated to Ethiopia), and they said, .O Messenger of Allah! We were afraid that you were supering from Thatul Janb He said, 'What medicine did you give me?
They said, 'Some Indian costus, Wars and some drops of oil. He said, Allah would never inflict this type of disease on me. He then said, .I order you that every person present in this house take some of the same medicine, except for my uncle AI-'Abbas,''
Further, in the Sahihan (Al-Bukhari and Muslim) it is narrated that Aisha said: ''We administered some medicine to the Messenger of Allah although he indicated that he did not want to be given medicine. But we attributed his refusal to what the sick usually feel about taking medicine. When he woke up, he said: ''Did I not disallow you from giving me this medicine? Therefore, everyone present should take some of that medicine, except for my uncle AL-Abbas because he was not with you.
''The last modish allows treating the aggressor in the same manner he treated other's, as long as what the aggressor has committed is not prohibited by Allah.
