Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Iran: “Islamic medicine specialist” says camel urine cures coronavirus

Apr 21, 2020 3:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Mehdi Sabili believes this because he thinks Muhammad said it. This is a Sunni hadith, but the same saying can be found in the Shi’ite hadith books: “The climate of Medina did not suit some people, so the Prophet ordered them to follow his shepherd, i.e. his camels, and drink their milk and urine (as a medicine). So they followed the shepherd that is the camels and drank their milk and urine till their bodies became healthy. Then they killed the shepherd and drove away the camels. When the news reached the Prophet he sent some people in their pursuit. When they were brought, he cut their hands and feet and their eyes were branded with heated pieces of iron.” (Bukhari 76.9.5686)

So when Muhammad tells his followers that no deed is greater than jihad (Bukhari 56.4.2785), many believe that, also.

“Watch: Iranian ‘Islamic medicine specialist’ says camel urine cures coronavirus,” by Yaghoub Fazeli, Al Arabiya, April 20, 2020:

An “Islamic medicine specialist” from Iran urged Iranians to drink camel urine, claiming it can cure several diseases including coronavirus, according to a video posted on Instagram which has since gone viral.

Drinking camel urine can cure lung diseases, asthma, and coronavirus, “Islamic medicine specialist” Mehdi Sabili said in a video shared on his Instagram page.

Sabili’s video went viral on social media on Sunday.

“Islamic medicine” in Iran relies on the sayings of the Shia Imams to treat patients and is dismissive of modern medicine.

Sabili is the head of the “scientific-educational association of Imam Sadegh’s medicine” in Iran and has over 60,000 followers on Instagram. Sabili himself drank some camel urine in the video, saying he needed it to protect him from the air pollution in Tehran.

He advised his viewers to drink camel urine three times a day for three days and said that the urine is best drunk while in its “initial, hot temperature.”…

Advocates and followers of “Islamic medicine” in Iran would not be allowed to promote their ill-considered methods if not for having the approval of the country’s powerful clergy….

      After drinking that, a Muslim coronavirus patient will possibly contract MERS and have TWO deadly illnesses instead of one. The combination of two illnesses would likely prove fatal.

    • mortimer says

      Apr 21, 2020 at 7:33 pm

      By the way, FYI, Mohammed thought that dates and black seeds were medicine as well. He believed black seeds could cure everything but death.

        In idle moments one might wonder if he ever mistook mouse turds for the black seeds…..

    Gag a maggot! All of the maggots intelligent enough to read or listen to a video, are gagging. This is filthy, demonic, advice.

    Why does “instagram” allow such to be posted? How many will become ill from this practice? Hopefully, none will be forced on children.

      It is scientific. It says so.

        That clown would force it to be drunk at his sister’s wedding to her first cousin.

      Stock it in expensive-enough packaging and she would be sure to go for it.

    Only dromedary camels (those indigenous to Arabia, and known to Muhammad) produce urine with such healing capabilities. The urine of Bactrian camels (double humped) is completely useless for healing. Unfortunately for Sabili, the camel in the video which supplied him his libation is Bactrian. He should have been more discerning. Caveat emptor!

    I am surprised that it took so long for an Iranian ‘Islamic medicine specialist’ to suggest Mohammed’s chief medical cure as a solution to coronavirus. Good luck to him too and the camels,

    Look no further!

    He must be joking “He’s taking the piss”

    • Bonnie Prince Charlie says

      Apr 22, 2020 at 9:07 am

      No. He wants YOU to take the piss and I agree with him. To cure or ward off COVID-19 and any other diseases, EVERY MUSLIM should drink camels’ piss at least 3 times a day for at least 3 days.

      Anyone who disagrees with this or contradicts it is guilty of Islamophobia.

    The World Health Organization STRONGLY advises against the human consumption of camel urine.

  9. mortimer says

    Apr 21, 2020 at 7:35 pm

    Doctors in Saudi hospitals treat people every year after they drank camel urine and got sick.

    Mehdi Sabili is an example of how Islam removes logical thinking.

    How can Muslims who studied chemistry or biology remain in Islam?

      My advice to him: Dude, you drive an automobile. Try some radiator fluid and battery acid instead.

    The wife viewed the video and has lost her appetite for supper. Still in shock.

    This camel urine episode sounds like 13-year-olds playing pranks at summer camp; telling some stooge that it’s beer.

    No more evidence is needed to declare that Muhammad was a lunatic and also declare that any follower who drinks Camel Urine has a defective brain.

    • clive delmonte says

      Apr 22, 2020 at 3:44 am

      A defective brain, Westman ? Would that be before or after drinking the urine ?

  12. Boromir's Horn says

    Apr 21, 2020 at 9:48 pm

    Does the camel just pee into their mouth?

    • Boromir's Horn says

      Apr 22, 2020 at 9:34 am

      Would an Arabic menage a trois be fornicating with a camel while drinking his pee?

  13. Jayell says

    “Camel urine cures coronavirus”. OK, so let’s see the hard evidence and any research results.

    • gravenimage says

      Asking for hard evidence is “Islamophobic”…

    I think even the camel got disgusted seeing him drink its pee. or perhaps, the camel is another pervert like muhamad

  17. Giacomo Latta says

    Apr 22, 2020 at 10:59 am

    Try drinking camel urine straight from the tap, Mehdi. That just might cure all of your ailments.

  18. James Lincoln says

    Couldn’t help but notice that this “Islamic medicine specialist” is sporting a white shirt, blue blazer, a neatly trimmed beard, and a $50 haircut.

    This does not change the fact that he is peddling the islamic version of snake oil…

    Just for the taste of it: Camel Piss
    Now in low-calory and sugar-free varieties
    Diet Piss – Straight from the camel
    It’s the real thing.

    Does the prophet say anything about urine from sick camels? Anyway, quickly contact the CCP, and ship as many camels as well as camel urine to China, they really need the urine. Big, big market!

  23. OLD GUY says

    Apr 23, 2020 at 7:07 pm

    Camel piss maybe the problem with islamic men. With their breath stinking from camel piss I now understand why they have to resort to rape in order to have sex with a women. I also understand why muslim women keep their faces covered, who wants to kiss a guy that drinks camel piss. It’s hard to believe that anyone would follow Muhammads insane teachings and doctrines. Islam is totally illogical.
