Al-Hijamah (Cupping Therapy)

The word “cupping” was derived from the arabic verbs “hajama” and “haj’jamah” which they mean “to minimize” or “to restore to basic size”, or “to diminish in volume” or to “pull out”. In arabic they say, “a certain person diminished the problem”, Cupping Therapythey meant that he returned the problem to its original size. Thus he who performed the cupping operation made diseases refrain from attacking him. The increase of spoiled blood (the old red blood cells, R.B. cell ghost) in the body rendered its cessation from growing when the person became twenty-two years old, and it accumulated in the back area of the person. With advance in age, these accumulations of spoiled blood hindered the circulation of the whole blood, eventually paralyzed the work of the young red corpuscles then the body became weak and exposed to various kinds of diseases. When one performed cupping, the blood returned to its original condition and the stagnant blood went away (that blood which contained maximum rate of senile red corpuscles and their cells ghosts and abnormal shapes of red blood cells, and other impurities).

The pressure on the blood circulation was lessened and the pure blood formed from young red corpuscles rushed to feed the cells and the body organs, and released them from harmful residues, damages and unwanted materials. Allah’s envoy “Mohammed” (Communication with Allah and Peace are through him) said, “Hijamah is the most helpful act for human beings to cure themselves with.”

 

Al-Hijamah (Cupping Therapy) is the best remedy recommended and used by the Messenger Muhammad PBUH. The Messenger Muhammad PBUH said, “Indeed the best of remedies you have is Hijamah (Cupping)” [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (5371)]. Messenger Muhammad PBUH also said that on the night of Israa (his ascension to the heavens) he did not pass by an angel except that it said to him, “Oh Muhammad PBUH, order your Ummah (nation) with Hijamah (Cupping).”[Saheeh Sunan Tirmidhee (3479)]. This shows the importance and greatness of this Sunnah.
