Qur'anic Verse & Ahadith Regarding Honey

Allaah said:

"And your Lord inspired the bees, saying: "Take you habitations in the mountains and in the trees and in what they erect. Then, eat of all fruits, and follow the ways of your Lord made easy (for you). There comes forth from their bellies, a drink (honey) of varying colour wherein is healing for men. Verily, in this is indeed a sign for people who think. "
[An Nahl: 68-69]

The Prophet Muhammad (salallaahu alayhi wasallaam) said,
“Make use of the two cures: honey and the Qur’an”
[Ibn Majah & others]

Narrated 'Aisha:
"The Prophet used to like sweet edible things and honey. "
[Sahih Bukhari]

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
The Prophet Muhammad (salallaahu alayhi wasallaam) said,
"Healing is in three things: A gulp of honey, cupping, and branding with fire (cauterizing)." But I forbid my followers to use (cauterization) branding with fire."
[Sahih Bukhari]

Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
A man came to the Prophet Muhammad (salallaahu alayhi wasallaam) and said,
"My brother has some abdominal trouble." The Prophet said to him "Let him drink honey." The man came for the second time and the Prophet said to him, 'Let him drink honey." He came for the third time and the Prophet said, "Let him drink honey." He returned again and said, "I have done that ' The Prophet then said, "Allah has said the truth, but your brother's abdomen has told a lie. Let him drink honey." So he made him drink honey and he was cured. "
[Sahih Bukhari]
