Senna leaves

Our senna leaves (Folium Sennae or Senna leaves) provide natural digestive support and are ideal for making tea. The senna plant has been valued for centuries in Islamic tradition for its soothing and purifying properties and is considered a part of the Sunnah, having been recommended by the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) as a means of purification.

A hadith from Asma bint Umais (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:

“Use senna and sanut (a type of butter or honey), for they cure every disease except death.”

(Narrated by Ibn Majah, Hadith no. 3457)
