The Shaykh’s remarks about his ear and phlegm, and the herbal doctor’s prescription of honey with pepper

The doctor: We are listening to you to see what is wrong with you, because my connection to Arab medicine... this is possible.
Shuqara: This is our Shaykh.

The Shaykh: What is his connection to?
Shuqara: A Shaykh in this medicineThe Shaykh: Al-Hafiz.

The Shaykh: Arab medicine.
Shuqara: Yes, I mean, I explained to him some of what you have regarding your illness, and he said, "I can treat itThe Shaykh : with herbs, and this medicine is known among them. He mentioned that, with the permission of Allah the Exalted, this matter will not last long, with the permission of Allah, if he gives you some treatments. He has them, and he even asked the brother Kamil to go get the treatment from his house, but the time came, meaning it was approaching, so he wants to hear from you some of what you have so he can prescribe the treatment.

The Shaykh: First, I do not hear with this ear at all.
The student: Yes.

The Shaykh: And it is accompanied by a constant itching.
The student: Yes.

The Shaykh: Here inside, I get an itch.
The student: Yes.

The Shaykh: The left ear... mild.
The student: Yes.

The Shaykh: And it is also accompanied by some itching.
The student: Itching.

The Shaykh: Less than here, and the complaint is to Allah... the affliction is according to the sins. Allah is the Helper.
Shuqara: Yes, but according to the sins, meaning when the sins increase, the person sees them as many in his own view, but people...

The Shaykh: They are many. We ask Allah for forgiveness.
The student: This is in the view...
The student: Shaykh Muhammad, do you also have inflammation in your intestines or something?

The Shaykh: And it brings you news from one you have not supplied. I have dizziness; I cannot take a few steps without staggering like a drunkard, without comparison. The strength is very weak; I cannot walk from here to there without leaning on a person. Then I have a strange type of phlegm. This phlegm is of two types. The one that accumulates is white like phlegm, but it is sticky, sticky, and does not come out except with great difficulty. Sometimes, sometimes it is accompanied by a film, a film.
The student: Yes.

The Shaykh: And among the strange and wonderful things is that this film, teacher, is like a nourishment.
The student : Strange.

The Shaykh: The closest thing, and without comparison, because where is phlegm compared to honey? How does honey have a film on it?
The student : Yes, yes.

The Shaykh: This has a very thin film on it. So when it comes out, it has two sides: a covered side and an uncovered side. But this does not come out except that my soul almost comes out with severe coughing, very, very severe. Sometimes it resists and does not come out, so I induce vomiting, I induce vomiting what is in my stomach. This is what... By Allah, He is the Healer and the Restorer.
The student: May Allah reward you. Currently, we would like to treatThe Shaykh : with the individual items used in the house.
Another student: The simple things, meaning.
The student: I specialize in this; it is a healing for people. It is honey. We take honey and put black pepper powder in the honey, we mix it with it.
The student : Peace be upon you, Shaykh.

The Shaykh : Welcome.
The student: Our Shaykh, this is Yahya, recently converted to Islam.
The student: French.

The Shaykh: Welcome, how are you? Yes.
The student: This is pepper powder, we mix it with it, and a spoonful four or five times a day. This, if Allah wills, will settle down, and it will also expel the phlegm easily... if Allah wills, this is a big thing. This is the third treatment.
