The vast majority of diseases are related to our diet and the Islamic lifestyle as prescribed by Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, is an ideal course of prevention for many diseases, including those of the heart.
Grain products, vegetables, and fruits are key parts of a varied diet. They are emphasized in this guideline because they provide vitamins, minerals, complex carbohydrates (starch and dietary fiber) and other substances that are important for good health.
