Peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon our prophet, Mohammad 'O Lord, he said "Ya Rabb! Lakal- hamdu kama yanbagi li-jalali Wajhika wa li'azima sultanika (O Lord, to You is praise as befits the Glory of Your Face and the greatness of your Might).' Barley: Health and Economy By: Dalia Elsayed English course at RSH We have basic rule, that is when food is expressly mentioned by name in the Holy Koran or Sunnah, it means that this food carries a valuable effect on human body and life. We will see here how barley was one of the most favorable food for our Messenger Mohammad, Peace and blessings be upon him.
He ate it in bread (barley bread) and as Talbinah (barley
soup). Our messenger, Muhammad, peace be upon him, said that: تذهب ببعض،«التلبينة مجمة لفؤاد المريض الحزن» صحيح البخاري In the meaning of: The Talbinah soothes the heart of the patient and relieves him from some of his sadness.' " [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree] Ibn Abbas, may ALLAH be pleased upon him, said that: كان أكثر خبز آل بيت:«عن ابن عباس أنه قال رسول هللا صلى هللا عليه وسلم خبز الشعير» سنن الترمذي In the meaning of: The most of the bread that was used by our messenger’s family was barley bread. (narrated by al-Tirmidhi) We should stand a bit and meditate in how our messenger’s life, peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him, was guided by ALLAH, the Almighty.
Of course, ALLAH learnt him the best to learn us the
best too. To link between Sunnah and our current life, we will go through scientific research results with straight view. Health view Recent studies, around the world, have proved the nutritional and medicinal high values of both barley grains and barley flour, which were also acknowledged by US Food and drug Administration and European Food Organization many years ago. Health view Scientific studies proved that barley: Regulates sugar and fat level in the blood through its fibers.
Contains anti-oxidants which reduce the injury
of cancer. Significantly decreases depression, stress, and mood disturbances through its potassium, magnesium, vitamin B, tryptophan (have a role in serotonin synthesis)... etc. contains Melatonin which has a role in protection against heart diseases and in regulating sleep. Increases the body immunity through activation of white blood cells by beta-glucan.
Talbinah may provide a mental health benefit to
elderly people. Economic view we have, in Egypt, two main bodies have made researches on barley in terms of both health effect and economic impacts when using it in our food, which are National Research center (in Cairo) and Mansoura University (Faculty of Agriculture). Barley is characterized by: Ease of its farming. Low production costs if compared with wheat and corn. Well cultivated in different types of climate, soil and agricultural environments. Wide area of uses in production of food items and fodder. Possibility of growing it in desert regions and recently reclaimed soils. Irrigation by rain is possible (low water consumption). Less effort and cost in pest resistance. A loaf of barley and wheat mixture: 1. Nutrionists in National Research center found, in 2008 AD, that we produce 9.6 million Ton of wheat flour to produce a loaf of bread of 100% wheat, instead if we design the mixed loaf of barley and wheat (25:75, respectively) we will use only 7.2 million Ton of wheat flour (75% of the first percentage). 2. A leading experiment, in 2016/ 2017 AD, was done by Mansoura University (faculty of Agriculture) to replace wheat flour by barley flour up to 85% and 100%. This was really implemented by the automatic bakery in faculty of Agriculture. Barley Products Bread and Rusk
