Vinegar
Join Darussalam Publishers & Distributors
It was narrated from Jabir Ibn ‘Abdullah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, asked his family for condiments and they said: “We do not have anything but vinegar.”
He called for it and began to eat it, saying: “What a good condiment vinegar is, what a good condiment vinegar is.”
According to another report, Jabir Ibn ‘Abdullah, may Allah be pleased with him, said, “The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, took me by the hand one day and (led me) to his house, and some pieces of bread were brought to him. He said: “Is there any condiment?” They said: “No, except a little vinegar.” He said: “Vinegar is a good condiment.”
Jabir said: “I have not stopped liking vinegar since I heard that from the Prophet of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.” (Narrated by Muslim)
An-Nawawi said: With regard to the meaning of the narration, Al-Khattabi and Al-Qadi Iyad, may Allah have mercy upon them, said, “What it means is to be moderate in eating, and to refrain from eating delicious food. The correct view of which we should be certain is that it is praise of vinegar in and of itself. Vinegar is an ancient food and remedy.”
Ibn Al-Qayyim, may Allah have mercy upon him, said concerning it, “Vinegar is beneficial for an inflamed stomach, it suppresses bile and wards off the harm of some strong medicines. It benefits the spleen, regulates the balance of the stomach, quenches thirst, aids digestion and softens heavy food. If it is heated and used as a mouthwash, it is good for toothache and strengthens the gums.”
Al-Razi says that vinegar softens the heavy humors (in the body), dries up the stomach and quenches thirst. It is cool and eases the heat of burns better than anything else. It generates wind, stimulates the appetite, helps with digestion and counteracts mucus.
Vinegar is a liquid condiment with a sharp taste, which is produced by turning alcohol into acetic acid through the action of yeast. It can be produced from the juice of grapes, oranges, beetroot, melons, cane sugar, apples, berries and honey. Scientists have also been able to produce it chemically.
Vinegar is composed of water and acetic acid (5%) and some solid, volatile and organic matter, as well as other matter that gives it its taste and smell.
Vinegar enhances the flavor of some foods and makes them more palatable and tastier, and helps to digest them. Hence, it is added to many kinds of food, such as meat and salads, so as to provoke the appetite. But overuse of vinegar upsets the stomach and causes pain, indigestion, and stomach ache, and may lead to ulcers in some cases.
Vinegar is prescribed in modern medicine as a moisturiser, stimulant and diuretic, or to provoke sweating. It helps the stomach in digestion by breaking down the coarse fibres in meat and vegetables. It is also given as an antidote to alkaline poisoning, and is applied externally to treat ringworm and alopecia.
I have seen the main benefits of vinegar in treating head lice and destroying nits. It may also be applied to the head to treat baldness. Cornstarch may be added to it and the mixture applied to the skin as a remedy for itching.
Ulcers and skin wounds may be washed with it, and it may be rubbed into the skin of the chest and abdomen, after diluting it in water, as a general tonic. It may be applied to the forehead of a patient suffering from fever to reduce headaches.
It may be inhaled via the nose to revive a patient who has fallen unconscious, and it may be used as a mouthwash and gargle to strengthen the gums, stop bleeding and purify the mouth.
Jarvis praised cider vinegar and said, “If it is drunk with water, it is the best remedy for colds.” He advises his patients to drink every morning on an empty stomach a cup of water with a small spoonful of vinegar and another of honey, to cleanse the digestive system of all bad things and to obtain useful elements, nutrition and cleansing. He himself testified that the children of peasants who drank water with vinegar had strong bodies and good health.
Jarvis says: Doctors are agreed that drinking a small amount of vinegar is useful, but a lot of it is harmful, with the exception of cider vinegar which is used medicinally to treat headaches and dizziness and to protect against disease. It is very important in keeping the cells of the body in good shape and strengthening the body’s resistance to many bad things that threaten it, because its ingredients are rich in elements that the body needs to create balance between cells, foremost among which are phosphates, iron, chloride, sodium, calcium, manganese, silicon and fluorine.
Dr. Cyril Scott and Dr. Maurice Hansen, in their book on the benefits of cider vinegar, say that,
• It prevents diarrhea because it contains an astringent substance
• It stimulates the digestion and metabolism in the body
• It prevents tooth decay
• It kills parasites in the intestines
• It can be used to improve digestion in those who are deficient in stomach acids.
• Vinegar also cleans the intestines.
• Some people advise using it as a mouthwash and gargle to purify the mouth of germs.
• Some important traditional remedies:
• Croup: 70 g of vinegar and 1 cup of warm water. Gargle and drink the rest slowly.
• Burns: Apply cider vinegar to the site of the burn quickly, to avoid blisters. It may also be used in cases of sunburn.
• Tooth decay: Vinegar may be used as a mouthwash, after mixing it with an infusion of hibiscus flowers.
• Poor digestion: A cup of warm water with a small spoon of cider vinegar.
• Insomnia: Half a teaspoon of cider vinegar, 2 teaspoons of honey, with 100 g of water, to be drunk an hour and a half after dinner.
• To lose weight: 2 teaspoons of cider vinegar with a cup of water, to be drunk after food three times daily for two months.
• Ringworm: Apply vinegar topically six times daily or rub the mother of vinegar into the site twice daily.
