Islamic medicine is defined as an approach to medical care that conforms to the Quran and Sunnah. It is universal and allows for growth within this framework. The key concepts of tauhid and shariah motivate a holistic view of the patient considering physical, social, psychological and spiritual dimensions in an integrated manner. Islamic medicine seeks to cure diseases and promote health, wealth, progeny and spiritual well-being in accordance with revealed guidance. It is not a rejection of modern medicine but an approach that addresses its shortcomings and incorporates alternative therapies.

There is world wide consensus that holistic approach is lacking in contemporary medical models as well as in medical curriculum.
Moreover, modern medicine is still based on biological vision of disease as advocated by bio-medical model.
The bio-psychosocial-spiritual model which offers more humanistic and holistic approach is not implemented yet globally.
Therefore keeping in view its broader and holistic vision it is important to incorporate contents in medical curriculum regarding all dimensions of human illness including spirituality.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. What is Islamic Medicine ?
Islamic Medicine is defined as an
approach to Medical Care whose basic
paradigms, concepts, values and
procedures conform to or do not
contradict the Qur’an and Sunnah.
IT IS NOT specific medical procedures or
pharmacopeia of therapeutic agents
used in a particular place or a particular
time.
Islamic Medicine is universal, all-
embracing, flexible, and allows for
growth and development of various
methods of investigating and treating
diseases within the frame-work
described above.
The Islamic approach to medicine has
reintroduced the human element in medicine
without denying the benefits of modern medical
technology.
It is a process of conceptual transformation
called the Islamization of Medicine.
The end-result of the Islamization process WILL
NOT BE a medical system FOR MUSLIMS ONLY but
for the whole of humanity because Islam is a set
of universal and objective values.
Islamization is not theologizing, or localizing of
parochial medicine but is rather a rocess that
makes an objective, universal, value-based and
systematic scheme of excellence for all.
Prof Omar Hasan Kasule Sr. MB ChB (MUK), MPH (Harvard(, DrPH
(Harvard) Professor of Epidemiology and Islamic Medicine
Universiti Brunei
3. Why Do We Need Islamic Medicine?
Motivating Factors
An unacceptably high number of
patients are being treated for side
effects of modern therapeutic agents
Narrow specialization leads to lack of
a holistic approach to the patient
Physicians behave as a technician
and turn a blind eye to moral and
social issues that affect the health of
his patients
Secularized medicine has no
consistent set of ethics leading to
malpractice, fraud, and bias in
research
By denying a religious and moral
dimension, European medicine operates
in a presumed moral vacuum.
All this is the result of
1. Materialist Reductionism
lack of tauhid or wholism.
1. Greed due to consumerism.
2. Fear of Death is manipulative.
3. Application of laws that govern the
mineral kingdom to man.
Hence: Muslims wish to practice
MEDICINE not MEDI-SIN
'Evidence-Based' Medicine: A Coin's Flip Worth of Certainty
… http://www.activistpost.com/2012/11/evidence-based-medicine-
coins-flip.html 90% of the peer-reviewed clinical research, the
holy grail of the conventional medical system, is exaggerated, or
worse, completely false?
4. Tauhid
The concept of tauhid motivates
looking at the patient, the disease, and
the environment a singularity or single
system in equilibrium and continuum
with the unseen.
Thus all factors involving (affecting) all
three elements are taken into
consideration while making medical
decisions.
Tauhid motivates the Physician to view
the patient as one organism rather
than a client with a conveniently
packaged combination of organs and
pathologies ripe for exploitation.
The patient has physical, social,
psychological, and spiritual dimensions
that must be considered in synthesis
with an integrated, holistic approach.
Balance = middle path = moderation
The principle of tauhid requires an overall
comprehensive ‘birds-eye’ view of the
patient’s disease, their physical
constitution, their environment (physical
& social), their mental capacity and
knowledge base, and their belief system.
The Western allopathic system pays lip
service to these realms by merely
recording on paper some of the pertinent
data, but takes little of initiative or action
to modify medical treatments accordingly.
Essentially, Western medicine and society,
in its pursuit of profit, has been reduced
to recipe makers and vendors whereby
technicians (the doctor) prescribe and
treat according ly without taking or
affording the time, resources or concern
for a more comprehensive approach.
5. The Muslim Doctor’s Responsibility is to PROTECT & ACTIVATE
the Purpose of Shari’ah in the realm of medical practice with regard to :
Physical Health
Spiritual Health
Progeny
Mental Health
Wealth
The Physician’s role is integral to these purposes
which are PREVENTATIVE as well as CURATIVE
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said that:
Hence also, the Muslim Physician’s responsibility is not to blindly follow the West (taqlid)
because WESTERN ALLOPATHIC MEDICINE IS NOT CURATIVE WHICH DENIES AL’QUR’AN
The West is destroying their people’s health, progeny, spirits and wealth by treating symptoms
in a non-wholistic, non-tauhidic / non-Islamic manner: a neo-Medical Norm
this is the result of Secular Humanism which has lead to Scientific Reductionism.
Allah did not reveal any disease without also REVEALING ITS CURE.
HENCE, AS MUSLIM PHYSICIANS, OUR DUTY IS TO:
SEEK, FIND AND APPLY THESE REVEALED CURES.
6. ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE
“Islamic Medicine” is not a reaction-to or a complete rejection-of modern
Western Medicine.
Natural therapeutics such as nutritional supplements and indigenous, un-
processed foods or folk medicines, chiropractic, naturopathy, homeopathy,
acupuncture, Chinese and Auruvedic medicines, etc., are included here as
being encouraged by Islam -- BUT NOT AS ALTERNATIVES to allopathic drug therapy.
Why? Because the word ‘alternative’ implies that Western Medicine is not
Islamic, which is not entirely true at all.
Western medicine is, however, an incomplete system with many serious flaws,
not the least of which is top-heavy administration and their profit motifs
guided by an extremely corrupt Pharmaceutical industry. As you study
Western medicine you will come to realize it is more about DISEASE
MANAGEMENT rather than disease cure.
Islamic Medicine is about both cure and prevention in addition to well defined
moral & ethical values and guidelines. Hence, it is a balanced tauhidic
(wholistic) scientific approach to mankind’s illnesses.
7. Islamic Medicine is defined as a medical practice whose basic paradigms,
concepts, values and procedures conform to or do not contradict the Qur’an
and Sunnah.
It is not specific medical procedures or therapeutic agents used in a particular
place or a particular time.
Islamic Medicine is universal, all-embracing, flexible, and allows for growth
and development of various methods of investigating and treating diseases
within this frame-work.
ISLAMIZATION IS NOT THEOLOGIZING or sectarian-parochial medicine (Chinese,
Malay, Arab or MB Medicine or Education) but rather it is a process that
makes for overall universal excellence.
In other words, the epitaph (obituary) should read:
Dr. ‘so and so’was an excellent physician,
and by the way, he/she was a Muslim.
[a Muslim who became and died an excellent physician].
8. Effects of Christianity
• Sickness was a punishment from God
• Sick could be healed if prayed for forgiveness
• People prayed to saints for specific cures
• Nuns & monks prayed for sick & provided herbal
remedies from monastery gardens
• Monks copied out ancient medical texts in
scriptoriums
• Church supported work of Galen & didn’t want
people to challenge ancient texts
9. Effects of Islam
• Caring for sick was important to the faith, e.g.
Baghdad hospital (805 AD)
• Islamic culture valued learning
• Greek medical texts translated into Arab and
preserved
• Baghdad centre for learning
• Islamic doctors preserved and catalogued
knowledge of Galen, esp. Rhazes & Avicenna
12. Canon of Medicine
Avicenna pioneered the idea of
taking pulse from the wrist. He
reasoned that the wrist was
easily accessible and did not
stress the patient out by having
to expose his or her body.
Avicenna also created the idea
of intubation. Intubation is the
process of inserting a tube into
the trachea of a patient to
facilitate breathing. This
method is still used today.
13. Canon of Medicine
• In the Canon of Medicine Avicenna presents
many groundbreaking ideas.
• He discovered that many diseases had a
contagious nature. For example he proposed
that tuberculoses was contagious
• In order to combat the contagious nature of
tuberculosis and other diseases he proposed
the idea of quarantine to limit the spread of
the disease. Avicenna realized that
tuberculosis was spread through water and
food so he quarantined these resources too.
• He also introduced the world to
experimental medicine and clinical
trials.
• He proposed seven rules one must
follow when testing new drugs. These
seven rules laid down the foundation of
modern experimental pharmacology
methods.
14. Seven Rules of Testing Drugs
1) “The drug must be free from any extraneous accidental quality.”
2) "It must be used on a simple, not a composite, disease.”
3) "The drug must be tested with two contrary types of diseases,
because sometimes a drug cures one disease by Its essential
qualities and another by its accidental ones.”
4) "The quality of the drug must correspond to the strength of the
disease. For example, there are some drugs whose heat is less
than the coldness of certain diseases, so that they would have no
effect on them.”
5) "The time of action must be observed, so that essence and
accident are not confused.”
6) "The effect of the drug must be seen to occur constantly or in
many cases, for if this did not happen, it was an accidental effect.”
7) "The experimentation must be done with the human body, for
testing a drug on a lion or a horse might not prove anything about
its effect on man."
15. Treating Patients
• Muslims believed that
diseases could be sent by
God.
• Unlike Christians Muslims
believed in finding remedies
for disease rather than
relying on prayer.
• As a result Islamic medicine
was far more advanced than
medicine in the West.
16. Other points to Remember…
• Islam believed Hygiene was important for
health.
• Charity and caring for others encouraged.
• Hospitals set up for sick.
• Sick people even given money so they didn’t
have to rush back to work.
18. • Thoracic surgery of little Muhammad
• Old jew lady and Rasulullah (PBUH)
• Omar ibn Khattab and a widow
• King Richard and Saladin Al Ayoubi
• etc

26. Because....
• Moslem doctors have:
– Qur’an and sunnah as their morality guidance
– Effort to do the best for their patients
– Update knowledge
27. I’m not the best but I will do better. And
good is not enough if better is possible
