Iran: Teachings of Holy Quran on Food Published in Book

A Persian book containing the Holy Quran’s guidelines on food, its usage and value has recently been released in Mashhad by Ahang-e Qalam Publications.

(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) -  According to Tehran Times, written by Mostafa Bayan, “Food in the Quran” focuses on the advantages of the variety of foods and fruits that have been mentioned in the verses of the Holy Quran or in the hadiths from the Imams (AS).The book provides readers with more information about the usage and value of different fruits such as pomegranates, figs, grapes, onions and olives, the Persian service of IRNA reported on Tuesday.Bayan, who has studied the food industry, believes that the direct influence of food and nutrition on human health has long been studied, and that man has found the most appropriate form of nutrition over the years.Man eats food and grows, gaining experience and learning how to live a longer and healthier life, the writer has written in the book.Eating is quite natural, but if there is no balance or variety in food, it will lead to nutritional diseases, hunger and malnutrition. Islam not only pays special attention to the health of the spirit, but also the body, particularly nutrition. Hence, if a food is harmful to the body it is forbidden while all other good foods are recommended. /149
