PROPHET'S MEDICINE
Loban (Styrax benzoin)
Known as an incense, Loban has multiple benefits even as a medicine
By Dr. M. Laiq Ali Khan
LOBAN as sold in the market is a resin of a tree, Styrax benzoin. It is extracted by making an incision on the stem of the tree, the secreting liquid is collected, dried and sold for usage. Though the trees of Loban are found in India, the maximum Loban is imported from Thailand, Malaysia and the Islands of the East Indies.
Hazrat Abdullah Bin Jafar narrates that Prophet Muhammad (Pbuh) said: “fumigate your houses with Loban and sheesh.” (Baihaqui)
Another narration reveals: “fumigate your houses with Loban and Saatar.” (Baihaqui)
According to the Hadith scholars, it relieves constipation and stomach pain. It is useful in diarrhoea and is a good digestive. It heals the wounds and ulcers of the eyes, tones up the stomach. It is a good expectorant and decreases the production of phlegm. The gargles of Loban with Saatar relieves the inflammation of the throat and heals up the wounds of the tongue. It enhances the memory if taken internally.
The long standing, bad and putrified wounds are healed with Loban speedily. The fumigation of Loban is a good insect repellent. It has qualities of an insecticide, is antiseptic and fights epidemics.
The classics of Ayurveda do not possess the reference of Loban and history reveals that Europe was also introduced with Loban after 1399, when Ibne Batoota introduced it during his travel to Europe.
It tones up the heart, stomach and increases libido. It is a good appetiser and is carminative. It relieves the cold and cough. It’s local application relieves the toothache. It is also stated by some physicians that it removes the bad smell of sweat and other excretions, relieves the inflammations of urinary tract and is useful in pulmonary tuberculosis. The drops prepared with Loban and sesame oil relieve the catarrh.
Chemical synthesis of Loban reveals that Loban contains benzoic acid, cinnamic acid and aniline. Besides, a volatile oil is also found. Modern studies reveal that it is a good haemostatic, antiseptic and a good healing agent, hence, applied on wounds and internally subsides the inflammation of UTI and respiratory tract infections.
In case where phosphates are found in abundance in the urine, the compound of Loban dissolves the phosphates and expels them out, besides it is a good diuretic and antiseptic for urinary tract. Locally it possesses potent antifungal effects.
In modern time where the use of chemical insecticides and pesticides is causing damage to the environment and the human life, Loban, which is a good natural insecticide and insect repellent, can prove an eco-friendly substitute.

The oldest , most famous langar among the poor the needy of all caste community is the langar run by the Hyderabai Iranis , hoteliers who come here every Chehlum to do their share of good work for Humanity.
The food served at the langar is delicious , rich in proteins vitamins and made in Hyderabadi style ,the crowds for this langar keep on increasing every minute..
They serve the Hussain Tekri pilgrims twice a day and are totally humble in their outlook..
I salute these khadims of Hussain may their tribes Increase and God keep them well.

when all the
doors are shut
on their face
when death
is imminent
pain morbidity
on the surface
than they come
to hussain tekri jaora
holistically healing place
whatever their caste
color community or race
imam ali
imam hussain
hazrat abbas
the hashemite princess
they embrace maulah
bachayenge
a soothing phrase
their only saving grace
its better to die nobly
here at he holy shrine
than live in disgrace
so morning evening
the loban smoke
keeps them alive
a reality stays
nights and days
each mindless
moment in its space
cosmic calisthenics
purple haze
socketless eyes
lost in a daze
in a worldly maze
no not at all
just a passing phase
an eternity of pain
only the ahle bayt
will erase
thats what they feel
dreams they chase
Only a poet will feel what a poet feels
some cry as thy have no shoes other cry as thy have no feet.. this is true Karuna
not a few pieces of stone that we hurl at others.. firoze

Poem: 8932259 - YES WE ARE POETS-GODS GIFT MAVERICK
Member: Frank James Christopher Ryan Jr.
Comment: True Creative Writers are a philosophical minority.Their largess is to be lauded and promoted by those who understand its force field. Yet, unfortunately, ever present will be the nefarious...those who masque their feckless attempts at greatness, by eviscerating those who either possess it, or have been blest with the God-Kissed potential to obtain it....And sad are those who dare to be egregious enough that their covet elicits further shame, in the form of taking what isn't theirs...
Foolish, and ultimately hapless are these drones, for greatness can be earned or God-Given....but can never be truly taken from its rightful owner, as it is theirs for life...Literarily speaking. Good Stuff Firoze.
~ FjcR ~ what
Only a poet will feel what a poet feels
When another corrupt plagiarist poet
His poem steals
Thank you Ryan
Your comment not just on my poem
But to the vulnerability of Poetry reveals
A few stolen poems well our poetic fate seal?
We are reservoirs of creativity ideas
You cannot rob our inner ideals
There is a God up above
A greater board of appeals
Dharma Karma Karuna
Wheels within Wheels
*karuna wikipedia
Karuna is commonly summed up as wisdom tempered with compassion.

When the body of a person his or her mind comes under attack from an alien source , and the person takes on the mental make up of another personality , what we call possession is known as Hazri..
I have shot this phenomenon at many Dargahs and during Urus , Hazri mostly comes on young women and the state they turn into could be volatile violent , they shake their heads , shake their bodies and the vocal sound is basically grunts groans and wolfish screams.
At Hussain Tekri Jaora the effect of Hazri is intense and also at Meera Datar Dargah Unjha in Gujrat , this dargah I have not shot as yet.. I will one day hopefully.
I have met a lot of Shamans but Peersaab Fakhru Miya Hujra No 6 Ajmer removes demons black magic and spells through incantations of the Holy Scriptures and Ahle Bayt.
As this subject fascinates me I have shot it extensively and at the same time here in Hussain Tekri I participated in my Shia rituals too besides shooting this in stop gaps, I also cut my head on the last and final day of my stay here in a ritual called Kamazani, I bled a lot and thanks to the JUST guys from Dongri my bleeding stopped I left the same night to catch a train for Mumbai and shot the Mumbai Chehlum too.
There were Rafaees at Hussain Tekri Jaora but I did not mingle with them I met Malangs and Naga Sadhus and a Hijra too.
Hussain Tekri Jaora is one place my American mentor Dr Glenn Losack MD wanted to shoot too but could not make it for this Chehlum to India.

Hussain Tekri Jaora is verily a mental hospital for the possessed the insane the demented the crazy the poor in flesh and spirit.
Through divine intervention of the Shia Shrines of Bibi Fatima , Bibi Zainab Bibi Sakina , Hazrat Ali Hazrat Imam Hussain and Hazrat Abbas the possessed known as Hazri seek help, and undergo a twice daily regimen of loban soul that indeed holistically heals them.
People from all over India come here , predominantly Hindus , tribal folks and Sunni Muslims and others , the Shias come here for participating in the Chehlum celebrations , that go on for a few days with majlis matam azadari and juloos.
They too invoke the Ahle Bayt in their own way I was here for two days and shot what I could , there are many stories I heard , and people swear by Hussain Tekri Jaora a fascinating spiritually intriguing place..
I shot the Hussain Tekri Chabuk Sharif with charas or hashish fields abound under government control..I was told by the Hindu Khadim whose family have been here and seen veiled horsemen at Chabuk Sharif.
The sewer pond where men women bury themselves alive in the muck I shot but was warned that they would smash my camera , so I shot all this from a hole in a sheet covering this pond..
I shot the devils tree stump, and yes I did not shoot Abbas who gets Hazri behaves like a snake bangs his head against steel doors at Bibi Fatimas Shrine every year the last I shot him 7 years back, he stopped my camera , the Nikon D70 it just refused to shoot went dead completely I spent Rs 9900 to get it repaired and eventually sold the camera body for Rs 5000..
I saw Abbas squirming on the floor but did not shoot him at all this time ..
And two people who inspired this set are Ghulam Chippa and Dr Glenn Losack MD from New York Manhattan.
Ghulam Cippas Hussain Tekri videos on this subject are on You Tube.
