D'après Abou Houreira (radiallahu anhu), le Prophète (sallallahu aleyhi wa sallam) a dit:
《 Regardez ceux qui sont au dessous de vous et ne regardez pas ceux qui sont au dessus de vous ceci afin que vous ne minimisiez pas les bienfaits d'Allah sur vous ☝️ 》.
Le Prophète ﷺ a dit :
« Le musulman qui débute sa duaa avec cette invocation :
La ilaha illa ant, subhanaka, inni kuntu, mina thalimin
Allah lui acceptera le souhait qu’il veut même la chose la plus impossible »
Le Prophète ﷺ disait 3 fois cette formule après le salām de la prière du
witr :
📌 Subhāna Al Malik Al Quddūs
سبحان الملك القدوس
3x ( les deux premières fois à voix basse et la troisième à voix haute .)

Et Ismail (AS), à peine adolescent, a dit :
"O mon père, fais ce qui t'est ordonné. Tu me trouveras, si Allah le veut, du nombre des patients."(Coran 37:102)
Un père prêt à donner.
Un fils prêt à être donné.
Deux cœurs complètement soumis.C'est ça Islam. Soumission totale.
Je me demandais comment certains musulmans ont de la Barakah dans absolument tout.
Le temps.
La famille.
Le travail.
Le Coran.
L'Ibadah.
Puis j'ai étudié leur mode de vie,
et voici les 7 secrets qu'ils ont tous en commun.
L'Aïd coïncidera cette année au Mercredi 27 Mai 2026 et le jour de ’Arafah au Mardi 26.
Qu'Allah nous facilite à tous son intense adoration durant ces jours bénis. 🤲🏼
Researchers at the University of Bergen ran a study comparing 213 Sudanese men. Half brushed their teeth with a chewed tree root. Half used a regular plastic toothbrush. The tree root group came out with healthier gums and less plaque.
That stick is called a miswak. The WHO has been quietly recommending it since 1986. In 2011, scientists at Sweden’s Karolinska Institute finally cracked the chemistry.
The active ingredient is benzyl isothiocyanate, a natural plant defense compound from the same family of sulfur molecules that give cabbage and mustard their sharp bite. The compound punches through the outer wall of bacteria that cause gum disease. From there, it dismantles the chemistry that keeps the bacteria alive. The Karolinska team isolated it by running root extracts through a chemical analyzer that identifies individual molecules.
The stick comes from the Salvadora persica tree, which grows in dry parts of Africa, the Middle East, and India. Inside the wood you also find natural fluoride, a gentle abrasive called silica that polishes off plaque, sulfur compounds, and tannins that tighten gum tissue. A separate team at Sweden’s University of Gothenburg ran another trial. They soaked the sticks in a fluoride solution. The fluoride left in the test group’s saliva came out higher than what people got from regular fluoride toothpaste.
A more recent systematic review pulled together a stack of randomized trials. Miswak on its own controlled plaque about as well as a regular toothbrush. Used alongside the toothbrush, it actually beat brushing alone on both plaque and gum inflammation scores. The Princess Nourah University trial from 2024 complicates that. Over two weeks, the miswak group’s plaque held steady while the toothbrush group’s dropped further. And gums in the miswak group got noticeably worse for people who sawed at their teeth too hard. Aggressive horizontal scrubbing tears at the soft tissue along the gum line.
One stick costs under 10 cents in the regions where the tree grows, and a single twig lasts for weeks. In sub-Saharan Africa, herbal toothpastes built around miswak and neem (another bitter chewing-stick tree) made up over a quarter of toothpaste sales in 2023.
The honest caveat is that Western dental literature treats the miswak as an add-on rather than a replacement, mostly because reaching the back molars with a stick is awkward. Used correctly, with soft perpendicular brushing along the gum line and no aggressive sawing, it does what a toothbrush does and adds a low-grade antibiotic on top. For most of human dental history, this is what cleaning your teeth looked like.
