The National Medical Commission Bill, in its first iteration, proposes a bridge course which will allow homeopathic and ayurvedic practitioners to prescribe some allopathic medicines. This proposal of a bridge course has met with opposition by members of the medical fraternity and, surprisingly, some practitioners of alternative medicine.

Then you remove the cup in order to make small, shallow incisions in that same area, before putting the cup back on. This pulls out the toxic blood, acids and excess fluids from the body. This is known as wet, or blood cupping. But what differentiates hijama is the religious and spiritual aspect of the practice. “Hijama” is the Islamic version of cupping therapy.  Muslims practice hijama cupping therapy, in accordance to the way of the Prophet ﷺ. It means that the patient and hijama practitioner should have done their ablutions (wudu) and should recite Quran durin g the hijama procedure. 5. Hijama Returns The Body To A Normal State Hijama” in Arabic literally means “to suck” and to “ret...

Unfortunately, it is a “forgotten sunnah” that has been erased from our valuable history, due to modern medicine and surgery.  We need to revive and establish this practice of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.
