When is the camel's urine going on stock exchange? We need to clean our act before mudsliging others.



Punishment of Disbelievers at War with Allah and His Apostle

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Volume 8, Book 82, Number 794:

Narrated Anas:

Some people from the tribe of 'Ukl came to the Prophet and embraced Islam. The climate of Medina did not suit them, so the Prophet ordered them to go to the (herd of milch) camels of charity and to drink, their milk and urine (as a medicine). They did so, and after they had recovered from their ailment (became healthy) they turned renegades (reverted from Islam) and killed the shepherd of the camels and took the camels away. The Prophet sent (some people) in their pursuit and so they were (caught and) brought, and the Prophets ordered that their hands and legs should be cut off and that their eyes should be branded with heated pieces of iron, and that their cut hands and legs should not be cauterized, till they die.

Respected Dr. Badar,

Of course, the camel urine hadith is fabricated. You can find the details in THE CRIMINALS OF ISLAM.

But for N2Is, Islam is never complete without saying QUR'AN & SUNNAH or QUR'AN & HADITH.

---

Your query about urine being declared NAJIS or unclean in vitro is an insult to a brilliant mind like yours. Did God have to tell us in the Qur'an that almost all body fluids are unclean in vitro? Didn't He endow us with esthetic sense? Which human being would like to smear himself with animal or human feces?

Take just a few examples where God ascribes unto Himself actions, tendencies, abilities that we are inherently born with.

Before that, think of the suckling reflex a baby is born with. Now those examples:

2:222 They ask you about menstruation. Say, “It is an inconvenience. So keep away from intimacy with women during menstruation and approach them not until they are rid of it. Once they are rid of it, you may approach them (your wives) for intimate relations in the manner designed for you by God. ---.

2:282 O You who have chosen to be graced with belief! When you transact a loan for any period, you shall write it down. An impartial scribe shall do the writing. No scribe shall decline to perform this duty, and write as God has taught him. ---.

5:4 They ask you (O Prophet) what foods are permissible. Tell them all good things of life are lawful to you. As for the hunting animals, the catch of your trained dogs and falcons, as God has taught you, is permissible. Mention God's name thereupon and be mindful of God. Indeed, God is swift to take account.
Wassalam,

Very Respected, brother Shabbir. There is no insult in asking a question. There should be no insult, in admitting as such,when one does not know something. However, in contrast lack of these charateristics suggest, closeness of mind and end of learning path.

The reason I asked the question was because, instead of just remaining preconcieved with cultural notions: when I did research I came up with following article in respected scientific publication.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8771453

May be it is we that have declared things Najis and unclean. May be Rub has created things, both with Good and Bad in them. Also given us capacity to determine both and avoid bad and follow and use good. You are a Physican, I do not have tell you that a lot of snake venom can kill one. However, a little dose of same can save life. Is it najis or not?

Salaam
A vast majority of Hindus do believe Cow's urine and dunk as sacred. On the other hand, despite the BUkhair's hadith, vast majority of muslims regardless which sect they belong to, do not subsribe to the idea and would never drink a camel's urine.
So associating camel's urine with teachings of Islam in the shape of such an answer, asked by our dear rother ,reflects debate for the sake of it and does not contribute in a positive manner.
IN addition to this providing a pub med article to prove the camel's urine harmful ---- cheh mahnay dar'ad?
was it to show that science is proving Islamic faith wrong or what was the real intention, i really could not figure it out.
One dont need a verse of Quran to prove that urine is not a palatable or healthy drink. Ta'ta fak'karoo fid deen.,
