Today, much of what has been taught through Islamic history by the Divinely Guided has been wiped out through fabrications, injections of doubt, “science”, and influence by societies imposing self-beneficial opinions and laws upon the Islamic society.  There is a shift in our understanding of what is healthy – what is normal – and what is medicine.
