There Is No Enmity Among the Companions (صحابہ کے مابین دشمنی نہیں)

رُحَمَاءُ بَيْنَهُمْ

'Compassionate amongst themselves' (al-Fath 48:29). The proof from mutawatir traditions is clear: the Companions of the Prophet (peace be upon him) had no mutual enmity. If any Companion differs from another in some matter, we understand this as ikhtilaf (legitimate scholarly difference), not as hostility. Even the conflicts that occurred among them — such as the Battle of the Camel and Siffin — are to be understood as mistakes made under ijtihad (sincere scholarly interpretation), not as enmity or disbelief. We hold all the Companions in the highest respect.

Some Tested Medical Remedies (چند مجرب طبی نسخے)

Hazrat shared the following four tried and tested herbal remedies from traditional Islamic medicine (tibb): (1) For general strengthening, a preparation of particular herbs. (2) A remedy for fevers using readily available natural ingredients. (3) A topical preparation for joint pain and weakness. (4) A compound for digestive ailments. These remedies were passed down through the chain of the righteous and are offered for the benefit of those in need.
