Beef

Ibn Qayyim in "Medicine of the Prophet" said

• Beef is cold and dry, heavy on the stomach and suitable for hard workers.
• The harm that this meat causes will be neutralized when one eats it with spices, garlic, ginger and cinnamon.
• The meat of fat calves is one of the best, mildest and tastiest types of food. It is warm and wet, and if fully digested, it provides good nutrition.

As-Suyuti in "Medicine of the Prophet" said

• Beef inclines to coldness and dryness and is hard to digest.
• The fat of beef is a medicine.
• It is best eaten with pepper and cinnamon.
