Yusuf Chambers: Next question the Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) we’ve heard in previous episodes of series and used to break fast with the dates and its therefore highly recommended to break fast with the date. And can you inform us about the medical benefits of dates?
Dr. Zakir: Dates is a wholesome food. Dates contain high level of carbohydrates, 44 to 88%. It has a low fat content 0.2 to 0.5%. there are about 15 minerals and salts in dates about 6 vitamins. The protein level is 2.3 to 5.6%. it has a high fiber content 6.4 to 11.5% depending upon the different types of dates. And if we realize that because of the high carbohydrates content it is a very good source of energy. The moment you have date immediately it gives you energy. It if far better them any other whether you have glucose powder etc, the date gives instant energy. And a person can survive only on dates and water for days and months together. And our Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) there used to be no food for days and weeks together and he used to survive only on date and water. Sometime on date and camel milk. So date is a wholesome food. The fat content, it doesn’t increase you weight, hardly any. So there is no risk you know a person who is you know afraid that ‘O the weight will increase’, that’s not there.
As far as the minerals are concerned it contains about 15 different minerals. It even contains fluoride which prevents the tooth decay, it contains selenium which fights against cancer and increases the immune system of the human body. It contains about 6 vitamins though to a less degree, less content, it contains Vitamin C, Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Niacin, it contains vitamin A. it has proteins which has 23 different amino acids and this fruit date has amino acids which are not contained in other fruits which normally people have. Its not present in apple, oranges, banana but it is there in the date.
And date also has a very high content of fiber, it’s a fibrous diet so its good for digestion. When you have date the digestion gets cleared, it can clear constipation and the digestive system is clear. It has various benefits and it is a wholesome food and we realize that Alhumdulillah ion the last 40 years the production of date has increased by 2.9 times and the population of the world has increased twice.
