Importance
in Islam
After the
victory of Makkah, when Hazrat Sad Bin Abi Waqqas
fell ill then Haris Bin Kaldah, a renowned and
well qualified physician of that time directed to
prepare “Fariqa” for him by boiling the dates
and barley gruel in the Methi water and directed
that if be given to the patient luke-warmed with
honey morning and evening. This recipe was
presented before Nabi-e-Akram (saw). He liked that
and the patient got cured.
The scholars of Hadith have an opinion that figs
might be used in place of dates. But both can’t
be taken together. Another narration reveals that
the recipe contained the Mulethi (Liquorice) also. |

The name
Fenugreek (Methi) comes from the Latin term Foenum-graecum, or Greek
hay. Fenugreek is an erect annual herb native to
Asia and southern Europe. Fenugreek is a tender, erect annual with three-part leaves and pea-like flowers that grows in fertile, well-drained, alkaline soil in full sun. It reaches a height of less than three feet and has a sweet hay scent when dried. A native of the Mediterranean area, the seeds have been used for thousands of years for medicinal purposes.
Undoubtedly one of the oldest cultivated medicinal plants, fenugreek is widely grown today in the Mediterranean
countries, Pakistan, Argentina, France, India, North Africa, and the United States
etc as a food, condiment, medicinal, dye, and forage plant (11.1-128). The plant reaches a height of 0.3 to 0.8 meters and has trifoliate leaves.
White flowers appear in early summer and develop into long, slender, yellow-brown pods containing the brown seeds of fenugreek
commerce. The reported life zone of fenugreek is 8 to 27 degrees centigrade with an annual precipitation of 0.4 to 1.5 meters and a soil pH of 5.3 to 8.2 (4.1-31). The plant
thrives in full sun on rich, well-drained soils. Growth is slow and weak in cold temperatures and wet soils.
As a leguminous plant, fenugreek needs little if any nitrogen fertilizer, and the plant can enrich soils with nitrogen. There is considerable commercial interest in breeding and growing fenugreek cultivars high in
sapogenins. Diosgenin, a steroid sapogenin found in fenugreek but currently isolated from Dioscorea species, is the starting compound for over 60% of the total steroid production by the pharmaceutical industry (11.1-74). Other sapogenins found in fenugreek seed include yamogenin, gitogenin, tigogenin, and neotigogens (7.2-79, 7.3-52, 7.3-54, 7.3-80).
Other constituents of fenugreek include mucilage, bitter fixed oil, volatile oil, and the alkaloids choline and trigonelline (11.1-50, 11.1-136). Extract of fenugreek is obtained by alcoholic extraction.
Methi
(Fenugreek) is used as vegetable in various
eatables. Fresh Methi herb does not contain any
smell but after drying, it becomes fragrant and
possesses a specific type low grade smell. Methi
from Kasur / Qasoor in Punjab (Pakistan) is very
famous in its fragrance throughout the country and
known as
Kasurii
Methi
Kasuri
Methi
leaves
are also used as a condiment for flavoring and
giving special delicious taste. Steaming is
considered the best method of cooking leaves; in
this the vitamins are retained and the vegetable
become palatable. The dried leaves can be composed
to pulses for their protein content. They
supplement the lysine-deficient cereal diets. They
have an aromatic odor and agreeable spicy taste.
Kasuri Methi leaves is an important ingredient of
curry powder and juicy and fry vegetables .
.
Historically,
fenugreek was used for a variety of health
conditions, including menopausal symptoms and
digestive problems. It was also used for inducing
childbirth.
Today, it is used for
diabetes and loss of appetite, and to stimulate
milk production in breastfeeding women. It is also
applied to the skin to treat inflammation.
A
few small studies have found that fenugreek may
help lower blood sugar levels in people with
diabetes.
There is not enough
scientific evidence to support the use of
fenugreek for any other health condition.
There are several alleged benefits of fenugreek. When taken by mouth, the supplement is claimed to be useful for appetite loss, diabetes, and high cholesterol. When applied to the skin, fenugreek may be beneficial for treating eczema, inflammation, and muscle pain. However, it is important to know that there is not enough scientific evidence to show that fenugreek is indeed effective for these uses.
Fenugreek is an amazing magic herb that can cure number of ailments.
Pakistani Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese medicine recommend fenugreek to treat arthritis, asthma, bronchitis, improve digestion, maintain a healthy metabolism, increase libido and male potency, cure skin problems (wounds, rashes and boils), treat sore throat, and cure acid reflux. Fenugreek also has a long history of use for the treatment of reproductive disorders, to induce labor, to treat hormonal disorders, to help with breast enlargement, and to reduce menstrual pain. Recent studies have shown that Fenugreek helps lower blood glucose and cholestrol levels, and may be an effective treatment for both type 1 and 2 diabetes. Fenugreek is also being studied for its cardiovascular benefits.

Rich
in vitamins and minerals, and because it is a seed
and a legume, it is high in protein. (Which
makes it very useful in vegetarian diets)
Formerly used as a yellow dye. The leaves are
dried and used as an insect repellent in grain
storage. In various areas of Pakistan North Africa
the seeds (ground into a paste) were traditionally
eaten by women to gain weight, in combination
with sugar and olive oil. The seeds are still used
for weight gain in Libya and other areas. They are
also an important source of diosgenin, which is
widely used in the production of steroids (which
probably accounts for the weight gain), sex
hormones, oral contraceptives and veterinary
medicines.
