FaithFreedom received the following inquiry from one of our good readers:
Is there any one to clarify this point that drinking of camel urine is curative in Hepatitis C. Few weeks ago I met with a doctor who was master of Muslim medicine. He told me that Camel Urine is very effective in so many physical problems specially Hepatitis "C". He gave reference of many Ahadiths about it. I want to ask the Muslims whether they drink camel urine or not and if not why not when Prophet Peace be Upon him has ordered Muslims to drink it. Fanatic Hindus love Cow Urine but Muslims believe in true religion so they drink the Urine of largest domesticated animals for bigger advantages.
This is like trying to prove scientifically that the world is flat, but here is our FFI effort. I googled “Camel Urine” and got a bunch of hits: From “Answering Christianity” we are given the hadith involved and added to that is the generalized view from Islamic believers. Most of the discussion is dedicated to one chemical derived from Animal Urine but it seems to revolve around Mares (female horse) urine not camel. At best it was the same old drivel trying to prove just how “scientific” the Quran really is. In another link titled "Camels could help cure humans" they make the following quote:“Writing in the British Institute of Biology's magazine, The Biologist, Dr Jassim says the small size of camel antibodies would also allow them to penetrate deep into human tissue and cells that would not be otherwise accessible.”
Now anyone who has three hours in microbiology understands that antibodies are specialized cells in our bodies that attack foreign bodies and kills the invading disease (germs or virsus or even a splinter) or any other foreign object. We are not aware that antibodies come in smaller packages than others that can ‘penetrate deep into human tissue and cells’. To the untrained eye this sounds great, but all one has to do is google the subject and this statement soon becomes rubbish. From “muhammadanism.org” we get some very inspiring insight into a concept that drinking camel urine will cure human ills. It basically comes down to whether one has faith in what the Prophet said. Here is the meat of the article:Of course, many Muslims find the idea of drinking camel's urine to be repulsive; and, as a result, they reject this hadith, even though it is Muttafaq 'Alaih. Others justify the hadith, and point out that horse urine is the source of conjugated equine estrogens (CEE) and available as Premarin®. It is an estrogen treatment for menopausal and premenopausal women. For them, it is reason to praise Muhammad whom, they claim, had miraculous foreknowledge of modern medicine. However, there is no specific evidence that those who were ill were menopausal women or that Muhammad suggested that camel urine would cure a woman who had a low level of estrogen.
Furthermore, those Muslims who think that Muhammad was given miraculous scientific knowledge only give lip service to this hadith. They would never put camel urine to their lips and drink it themselves. This shows that they don't really believe the so-called miracle in their hearts. If they did, they would be asking to drink camel's urine whenever they were ill. Since they neither believe nor follow Muhammad's advice in this hadith, their verbal praise of Muhammad's miraculous medical knowledge rings hollow and hypocritical.
In “Islam Question and Answer” the question seems to be answered definitely, if one is gullible enough to believe it. This page is really an important read because the Doctors at “Sudanese al-Jazeerah university” are so far ahead of say a world leading research institution like “Johns Hopkins” that they apparently lead the world in learning. (Of course I have never known of any real research coming out of “Sudanese al-Jazeerah university”. Have you?) The only problem with this page is that all Mammal urine has similar qualities and it is not restricted to just a Camel; however, if animal urine was a miracle cure the world could save trillions of dollars a year by all world doctors simply prescribing Camel Urine for the cure. But it is fine to just think how great the health of the world’s people would be if we simply took the Prophets word and drank Camel milk and urine. Of course all mammalian milk is good food; I just don’t want to entertain drinking an animal’s waste stream. While I point out these web sites that tout the benefits of drinking camel urine it is hard to find real science establishing the merits of ingesting untreated camel urine. But one must remember that all animals (including Homo sapiens) are large chemical factories and our bodies respond to many chemicals. Mammal metabolism in all advanced species is similar and on the face of the issue it seems highly unlikely that drinking raw camel urine, a waste product from another mammal, would include any chemical that our own bodies would not expel. In fact the urea (a source of nitrogen), potassium and other chemicals and proteins in camel would simply be rejected by our bodies also. But we cannot rule out the placebo effect that a true believer in Islam may experience by drinking camel urine. The argument that Muslims make for justifying the drinking of camel urine is quite simple: the Muslim world must prove that Mohammad did not lie to them and in someway Allah had revealed to Mohammad some science that all Muslim must accept at face value. So they seek to find any little thread of truth to a blatant lie or at best an ancient ‘wives tale’ about the benefits of drinking such a vile waste product. As hard as I tried I could not find any non-Islamic source for the vast benefits of drinking Camel Urine. The data on treatments for Hepatitis "C" with Camel urine was only found at the Islamic motivated sites. So I don't think that the New England Journal of Medicine is going to make a camel urine drinking recommendation in the near future. So my conclusion is that there may well be some trace chemical in any waste product that could lead to scientific discovery as all drugs are nothing more than chemicals; however, the thought that Allah invented camels to be a movable pharmacy is quite far fetched.
This fact has no relation
This fact has no relation with Islam that whether Islam is true or false. You know there was a tribe around Madina whose people were suffering from Hepatitis "C" when they came to Muhammad he advised them to drink she-camel urine.Amazingly they got cured. The reason is that treatment through urine of camel was persistant in Arabian Peninsula since last many thousand years. By try and error the people of Arabia had explored some medicines within the animals and plants found there. There is enough possibility that some type of chemical is found in the urine of she-camel which is capable to eject Hepatic C germs from the body. In future when western doctors will attest this fact the Muslim world will become joyful. But the fact will remain that the advantage of camel urine is not due to Islam but due to Arabian tradition of thousands of years.
next time, these muslims fall
next time, these muslims fall ill especially with Heptatitis C, they should be only given camel milk and camel pee.

Hey maybe that stuff tastes
Hey maybe that stuff tastes good also! I want some of that camel urine so I can add it to my protein shakes and stay extra healthy! But I want only that pure camel urine from Muslim camels living in the deserts of Saudi Arabia. That stuff should work extra, extra good!
And yes that “perfectly sane and kindly old prophet of peace, lol” Muhammad did say that camel pee makes for good medicine so it must be true. Bellow is one of the many statements that little Mohunkynuts uttered regarding camel pee. I wonder if little Mojo thought camel poo could be used as medicine as well. I’ll have to look that one up.
Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 4, Number 234:
Narrated Abu Qilaba:
Anas said, "Some people of 'Ukl or 'Uraina tribe came to Medina and its climate did not suit them. So the Prophet ordered them to go to the herd of (Milch) camels and to drink their milk and urine (as a medicine). So they went as directed and after they became healthy, they killed the shepherd of the Prophet and drove away all the camels. The news reached the Prophet early in the morning and he sent (men) in their pursuit and they were captured and brought at noon. He then ordered to cut their hands and feet (and it was done), and their eyes were branded with heated pieces of iron, They were put in 'Al-Harra' and when they asked for water, no water was given to them." Abu Qilaba said, "Those people committed theft and murder, became infidels after embracing Islam and fought against Allah and His Apostle ."
The fruits and many plant
The fruits and many plant leaves are more useful than any pee. Only islam has this madness of drinking pee.
The arabs should allow us infidels a 'project' to do and give 100 billion dollars, we will give them many many products and medicines with 'camel pee' as one of the ingredient, whether its useful or not.
I have some ideas to extract some money from the fool arabs. First we will take out the toxins of camel pee and extract the water part, purify it and add as water to well known medicine and sell it to arabs. So they will be happy and we will get some dollars.

Brainwashed, please tell me how Muhammad knew it was Hepatitis C? This was 1,000 years before we found out about germs and 1,200 years before we found out about viruses. Hepatitis is not a germ but a virus. So are you telling me that Muhammad was aware of hepatitis and made the diagnosis?
The facts remain that urine does not in any way aid a patient with hepatitis.

Dear Humanist,
The fact that those people were suffering from Hepatitis C has been deducted by Muslim doctors because it is mentioned in that Hadith that "their bellies were swallow and yellowness in skin" etc.. I have not deducted this result.
LOL How come the urine of a

How come the urine of a turd-eating camel is "pure and a cure" but that of a relatively clean human is forbidden?

Urine is impure..it is dirty..it nullifies ablution..and even if a drop of it gets on our clothes.
Drinking Muhammad's urine was deemed a blessing, though:

Anyway, I wish you mohammedans could drink Muhammad's urine straight from his cock in hell.
Just a thought: I wonder if
Just a thought:
I wonder if Mo used his own camel urine medicine?
If so, does this explain why the camel looks so superior?
Perhaps it is suppressed laughter. I'd think that getting a (supposed) prophet to drink your urine would be worth a ~1350 year laugh!
So, by following this
So, by following this teaching every muslim should have camel's urines in their homes (in case of emergency). How about opening a company that concentrated on camel's urine product packed in various forms (like cola or can beer)?
Jonc,
Pedo Mo never tried it for himself. It's so typical for him, no action only words.
