Organic Lemongrass tea – 100g | Natural Support for Urinary Flow, Bloating, and Liver Health,

The Prophetic Plant for Digestion, Detox and Internal Balance

🌿 A Plant the Prophet ﷺ Made an Exception For

During the conquest of Makkah, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ declared that no one should cut or harm the plants growing within the sacred boundaries of the city. But at that moment, his uncle al-‘Abbas ibn ‘Abd al-Muttalib (رضي الله عنه)stood up and said:

“Except for al-Izkhir, O Messenger of Allah. The people of Makkah use it for their homes and their graves.”

Recognizing its importance to the people, the Prophet ﷺ made a unique ruling:

“Except for al-Izkhir.”
(Narrated in Sahih al-Bukhari, 1833)

That plant was Izkhir — known today as lemongrass. And it remains, to this day, the only plant the Prophet ﷺ explicitly permitted to be cut in the Haram of Makkah. This isn’t just a herb — it’s a plant of prophetic exception, mercy, and utility.

📜 What Ibn al-Qayyim Said in Tibb an-Nabawi

Islamic scholar Ibn al-Qayyim, author of Healing with the Medicine of the Prophet ﷺ, wrote:

“Lemongrass is hot in the second degree and dry in the first. It is a light substance that opens blockages and the veins’ orifices. It increases urination and menstruation-flow, dissolves stones and hard tumors in the stomach, liver, and kidneys. The stems strengthen the column of the teeth and stomach, calm nausea, and relieve constipation.”

These benefits were recorded centuries ago — and now, modern science confirms many of them.

🔬 Backed by Science: The Power of Citral

The main active compound in lemongrass is citral made of geranial (citral A) and neral (citral B). These two components give lemongrass its powerful scent and healing action.

Scientific research has shown that citral has:

• Anti-inflammatory effects that reduce internal heat

• Digestive benefits that relax the gut and ease bloating

• Diuretic properties that flush the kidneys and detox the body

• Antibacterial and antifungal action that protects the digestive tract

• Nausea-reducing and carminative properties, just like Ibn al-Qayyim stated

Even when dried, lemongrass retains citral in significant amounts — especially when prepared as a tea making it a powerful herbal remedy for internal balance.

✅ Key Benefits of Dried Lemongrass:

• Supports digestion, bloating, and constipation

• Encourages urine flow and gentle detoxification

• Traditionally used for menstrual support

• Eases internal heat and nausea

• Aids the liver, kidneys, and stomach

☕ How to Use:

To make tea:
Add 1–1.5 tablespoons of dried lemongrass to 1 cup (250ml) of water.
Simmer gently for 5–10 minutes, then strain and drink warm
Best enjoyed after meals to support digestion and detox.

Add the Oil for External Healing

While the dried lemongrass supports internal cleansing and balance, the steam-distilled essential oil offers a far more concentrated dose of citral A & B, giving it powerful external benefits.

Scientifically Supported Uses of Lemongrass Oil:

• Topical Relief for Sore Muscles and Joints
  Reduces inflammation and tension when used with a carrier oil.

• Natural Antibacterial and Antifungal
  Helps with minor skin infections, athlete’s foot, and acne-prone skin.

• Natural Insect Repellent
  Disrupts insect scent receptors — ideal for warm climates.

• Circulation-Boosting Massage Oil
  Improves blood flow and reduces swelling in tired muscles.

What About Tumors or Breast Health?

Some early laboratory studies have found that citral, the key compound in lemongrass oil, may help inhibit the growth of certain abnormal cells, including breast cancer cell lines, by triggering apoptosis (natural cell death) and reducing oxidative stress in isolated environments.

However, these are preclinical studies conducted in lab settings not human trials. While the findings are promising, lemongrass oil is not a treatment or cure for cancer, and it should never be used as a substitute for professional medical care.

Still, the research supports its role in cell protection, inflammation reduction, and immune defense, which makes it a powerful addition to a natural wellness routine when used appropriately.

Pair both together for a complete, inside-out Sunnah healing system  rooted in Prophetic wisdom, backed by clinical science.
