A description of the Garden which is promised to the pious; in it are rivers of water which shall never pollute; and rivers of milk the taste of which shall never change; and rivers of wine delicious to drink; and rivers of purified honey; and in it for them are fruits of all kinds, and the forgiveness of their Lord; so will such ever be equal to those who are to stay in the fire for ever and who will be given boiling water to drink so that it tears their guts apart?
[Mohammed 47:15]
And your Lord inspired the bee that, “Build homes in hills, and in trees, and in rooftops.“
[Nahl 16:68]
“Then eat from all kinds of fruits, and tread the ways of your Lord which are soft and easy for you”; from their bellies comes a drink of various colours, in which is health for mankind; indeed in this is a sign for people who ponder.
(Nahl 16:69)
It is narrated by Sayyidah A’ishah who stated that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to love sweet things and honey.
(Al Bukhari)
It is narrated by AbdUllah Ibn Mas’ud that the
Prophet ﷺ said,
“Hold onto two cures – honey and the Qur’an.“
(Ibn Majah and Shu’ab ul Iman of Al Baihaqi)
