✅Let’s learn something tonight.
You guys have heard about cupping, which is Hijama. You know about the black seed. But there is another major branch of Prophetic Medicine that is almost entirely forgotten today.
It is called Sa'oot (سعوط).
What does it mean? Sa'oot is the Arabic term for administering medicine through the nose. Think of it like modern nasal drops or nasal inhalation. The Prophet (peace be upon him) used this method and heavily prescribed it for respiratory illnesses.
The most famous use of Sa'oot in the Sunnah involves a root called Qust al-Hindi, which is Indian Costus.
During the time of the Prophet, when a child had swollen tonsils (belubelu in local parlance) or a severe throat infection, mothers had a painful habit of physically pressing on the tonsils with their fingers to treat it.
The Prophet saw this and rebuked it. He told them to stop torturing their children and commanded them to use Sa'oot with Qust instead.
The process is very straightforward. You take the finely ground powder of the Qust, mix it with a few drops of olive oil or water, have the sick person tilt their head back, and drop it into the nostrils.
The medicine travels through the sinus passage, clears the respiratory tract, and attacks the throat infection directly from the source.
It shows the depth of Tibb an-Nabawi. We were not just told what herbs to consume. We were given the exact medical pathways to administer them long before modern clinics created nasal sprays.
Allah knows best.
