Aromatherapy with Al Khair Rose Water

The importance of aromas for moods, memory and emotions has always been believed in Islam. A pleasing scent can affect ones overall health and relieve anxiety, depression and a number of other psychiatric problems.

Aromas are converted into electrical impulses and then carried by olfactory receptors located at the roof of the nose to the limbic system in the brain. This is the area of the brain associated with learning, memory and moods.

The Islamic tradition of using fragrance to enhance physical, mental and emotional well-being is best understood by Al Khair Creative Quality Ware—a company dedicated to bringing you natural, Islamic, healthy products.

Rose Water was first produced by Muslim chemists in the medieval Islamic world through the distillation of roses. Rose perfumes—attar--are made from rose oil made by steam-distilling the crushed petals of roses and rose water is a by-product of this process. Muslim chemists commercialized rosewater production during their Golden Age, mainly for beverages and perfumes.

Rose Water is the hydrosol portion of the distillate of rose petals and possesses a very distinctive calming and subtle scent. Water used to clean the Kaaba, the Qibla for Muslims located in Mecca, combines Zamzam water with rose water as an additive.

Apart from the spiritual significance of Rose Water in Islam, it is also used in some Hindu rituals, Zoroastrian and Christianity.

Very popular in Muslim countries, the lilting and soft aroma diffused by a spray of Al Khair Rose Water can be used to scent prayer beads (tasbih or dhikr beads). As the fingers rub against the beads, it fills the air with the serene scent of roses and leaves the believer’s fingers perfumed.

Al Khair Rose Water is so pure that it can be used to scent prayer rugs, prayer garments, mosques and prayer areas in private homes and other places to put one in a contemplative and devout mood. Touching ones forehead to a prayer mat infused with Al Khair Rose Water can give immense peace of mind and clarity.

Thus, pleasant scents like that of Al Khair Rose Water Spray succeed in comforting and healing. A mist of Al Khair Rose Water in your home or office can create a heavenly scent which is sure to calm the senses.

Al Khair Dates for every Muslim Household

The date fruit holds a significant place in every Muslim home and heart. Dates and date palms have been mentioned in the Holy Qur'an 20 times, thus they are consumed with reverence in the Muslim world.

Every believer knows with certainty that if the date fruit has been afforded mention in the Holy Book then its advantages are sure to be uncountable. Like every thing mentioned in the Quran, the significance of dates has also been validated by science. Nutritionists have deemed that dates are power-packed with sugar, fat, proteins, vitamins, natural fibres, oil, calcium, sulphur, iron, potassium, phosphorous, manganese, copper and magnesium making dates are the healthiest fruit you could consume. Known to provide relief from intestinal disorders, constipation, heart problems, diarrhea and abdominal cancer, what better way to take care of your loved ones than to make Al-Khair dates a part of your lifestyle and diet.

Easy to digest and rich in energy, eating dates dispels hunger and makes one feel energetic. These multiple benefits are the reason why the Last Prophet Hazrat Mohammad PBUH broke his fast by dates and the Muslim Ummah has continued to do so following the beloved Prophet’s PBUH Sunnah.

Breaking the fast with dates is ideal as it helps one avoid excessive eating. Eating large quantities of food immediately after fasting is not healthy for the body, and eating a soft and supple date like Al Khair date first helps the body start its digestive process and gives it the energy to deal with the more complex foods which follow during iftar.

Due to their instant invigorating and stimulating properties, in the early years of Islam, dates served as food for Muslim warriors and used to be carried by them in special bags hung at their sides.

Over the last 1400 years, the tradition of consuming dates has continued in every Muslim household. Everyone partakes dates in Ramadhan while many have made it a part of their daily diet. Having premium Al-Khair dates early in the morning is an ideal start to the day as it gives a perfect start to the body’s metabolism and energy to take on the tasks for the day.

Cleaning with the Miswak must be done three times and the Miswak Stick must be used from one end and not both.
