Blessed olive oil “Consume olive oil and apply it as lotion for it is blessed.”
‘Umar ibn Al-Khattaab, may Allaah be pleased with him, narrated that the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: “Consume olive oil and apply it as lotion for it comes from a blessed tree.” [At-Tirmithi]
‘Abu Hurayrah, may Allaah be pleased with him, narrated that the
Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: “Consume olive oil and
apply it as lotion for it is blessed.” [Ibn Maajah]
The same Hadeeth was also narrated by Imaam Ahmad, may Allaah have mercy upon him, in Musnad Al-Makkyyeen. Abu Sufyaan, may Allaah be pleased with him, told the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, that he was sick, thereupon the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said:
“ Consume olive oil and apply it as lotion for it comes from a blessed tree.”
Moreover, the olive tree and its oil were mentioned in the Noble Quran seven times. Allaah The Almighty Swore by the fig and the olive: {By the fig, and the olive} [Quran 93:1]
Allaah The Exalted also referred to the olive tree Saying (what means):
{And [We Brought forth] a tree [olive] issuing from Mount Sinai which produces oil and food for those who eat.} [Quran 23:20]
This same tree was praised by Allaah The Almighty within the context of a simile. Allaah The Almighty Says (what means): {the glass as if it were a pearly [white] star lit from [the oil of] a blessed olive tree, neither of the east nor of the west, whose oil would almost glow even if untouched
by fire.} [Quran 24:5]
The olive tree is an evergreen tree, which has a high tolerance of dryness.
It is a perennial plant that might live even for more than 1000 years. The cultivated olive (Olea europaea) is grown throughout the eastern Mediterranean region and in other parts of the world that have Mediterranean-type climates especially in Asia and Africa. The olive tree has been known since the times of the most ancient civilizations as one of the most important oil producing plants.
It has been recently proven that the amount of fatty acids in olive oil is very low and that it only contains unsaturated fats. That is why it is considered very healthy, as it is free of the substances that lead to arteriosclerosis and even to the occlusion of the arteries. Through an accurate survey it was found that consuming olive oil regularly helps protect the body from many diseases including occlusion of the coronary arteries, an increase in the ratio of harmful fats in the blood, an increase in blood pressure, diabetes, some carcinogenic diseases (e.g. cancer of the stomach, the colon, the breast, the uterus and the skin), in addition to
protection from ulcers of the digestive system.
One of the main body fats is "cholesterol,” a white crystalline fat which is present in high amounts in the brain, the spinal cord, and the liver. It is normally synthesized in the liver, the intestine, and the skin, and is important as a mediator in many vital processes. The most important one of these processes is the synthesis of vitamin E and many hormones.
Nevertheless, eating excessive amounts of animal fats may lead to
increasing the level of cholesterol in the body. Part of this cholesterol will pass to the blood forming a fat globule that may lead to the obstruction or occlusion of the blood vessels, and may consequently lead to arteriosclerosis.
It is well-known that the oxidation of cholesterol is one of the factors that help accelerate the hardening of the arteries and their consequent narrowing. It has lately been discovered that olive oil plays an important role in preventing this oxidation process from occurring, as it contains vitamin E and other polyphenolic compounds, which prevent the selfoxidation of the oil. It also prevents the oxidation of harmful cholesterol known as LDL (Low-density lipoprotein), and purifies the body from the dangers of lipid peroxides as well as other harmful substances.
Therefore, consuming olive oil regularly helps lower the total amount of holesterol in the blood generally, and reduces the ratio of harmful types of cholesterol in particular. The low cancer rate, which is detected in the Mediterranean region, is attributed to the fact that the inhabitants of this region have regular large amounts of olives and olive oil (especially the virgin oil produced from the first squeezing process that is free from any chemical treatment).
Olive oil is a yellow liquid, rich in oleic acids, used in cooking and as a salad dressing. It is also used in producing many medicines, medical ointments, hair oils, and soap. Moreover, it produces a clear flame when ignited; hence, it was used in lighting lanterns. Olive oil was used in lighting lamps, especially in large mosques such as the Aqsa Mosque, we pray Allaah The Almighty to help us set it free from the Jews.
In addition to the above-mentioned health benefits of the olive tree and its oil, olives constitute a relish for those who eat them, a nourishing food, and an appetizer, and olives can be stored and preserved in salt, which increases their economic value.
Glorified be He Who praised olives and their oil in His perfect Book,
swore by it, and inspired the seal of His Prophets to speak about this scientific fact, the real aspects of which have only been known since the 1980s. Being inspired about the advantages of olives and their oil the Prophet, sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam, said: “Consume olive oil and apply it as lotion for it is blessed (or comes from a blessed tree).”
