Ablution helps Cure Headaches
PERFORMING the ablution five times a day eliminates headaches totally, a study conducted by Dr. Saeed Shibli, a professor in internal medicine, gastroenterology and hepathology at the National Research Center in Cairo, said.
During the performance of ablution, one tends to exert some force on certain pressure points in the face. It leads to secretion of endorphins which, in turn, stimulates the secretion of morphine that gives one a sense of relief and well-being.
That is why whenever Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) used to find any of his Companions anxious or in an agitated state of mind, he used to ask him to go and perform the ablution which eventually led to calming him down and made him feel better.
Fourteen hundred years later, this Hadith was better understood especially after it was scientifically proven.
Ablution also prevents one from aging quickly, since it stimulates the muscles of the face thus preventing it from shrinking in size, keeps wrinkles away, leaving the face healthy and glowing with vitality.
