Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Is the honey that contains healing the kind that comes from bees, or does it include what we eat, such as sugar or dates or other things?
Answer:
Bee honey is what comes from specific bees, and not everything that comes from bees is valid honey, because it depends on what the bee eats. If it eats something good, the honey becomes good, and if it eats something not good, the honey becomes not good, depending on what the bee eats. Therefore, they adulterate the honey; they make the bees eat sugar or give them something to eat that is not good. Yes.
