The topic focuses on how Islamic law and Islamic medicine can prevent and cure today’s health challenges. Proper adherence to Islamic law, for instance, will help prevent STDs, HIV transmission by intercourse, health complications from eating pork, constipation or obesity due to bad eating habits, etc. You’ll also need to research and explore Prophetic medicine and their potency.
Hello sir. Do you have any idea when the result for the 2015 CMO essay contest would be out? Tried conforming from organizers but all the numbers aren’t reachable.
I think the winners have been awarded already.
