Anti Bacterial Soap

[Ms Knight]

I guess those days all of us are prefering the Anti Bacterial Soap, speciall with the Swine Flu. Today I read the following article about Anti bacterial Soap saying it is of no benefit but could be a threat to our long-term health.
I don't know what to do in this life ... it is so tyring..

Have a look

I only buy one antibacterial product for my house and that's either bleach or something with some bleach in it for my kitchen and I don't use it alot. I use it when I make chicken or some other meat that I want to make sure isn't leaving salmonella on my cabinets or in my sink. The Sunnah tells us to rub to get clean and rub for ablution and the scientists found out quite a few years ago that it isn't the water or the soap that removes the bacteria from our hands, it is the rubbing. That is why drs. still scrub for surgery rather than just dipping their hands and arms in something. There is always someone who thinks they have a better way, but it is only because they want to make money off of us. There is nothing to sell if it really gets out that rubbing is all that's needed.

Our bodies are one big bacteria factory. Most bacteria is vital for our survival. We need it for everything from fighting other bacteria to making sure that dead things decompose. It's all a cycle and when we interfere with that cycle, we don't get to include one bacteria and exclude another. We should be very careful what we expose our children to. Simple and natural is the safest way to go. We were created to be able to fight off bacteria with our bodies and we are pretty silly to think we can use our minds in a better way than our Creator (SWT) did, to take care of ourselves.

Yes Amatullah, you are right..
It is just tyring to live in a world where you have to doubt everything. What is for our sake today we will discover it may be a cause of another problem later. Then...
We do study for the benefit of mankind and the personal interests and greedy interfeers.
Believe me I don't know what to say....

Bacteria is good. Don't try to get rid of it. Excessive protection is bad. If we protect our children from every virus or bacteria in the world, they will have no immunity system. Immunity system -just like any other system in our body- needs to work in order to grow. If we medicate every single thing, use soap that gets rid of every single bacteria and make sure our children never even catch a cold, their immunity system will stop because it doesn't need to function. Then one day, when the body really needs the immunity system, it will fail and this could cause death.

A little dust never hurt anyone. Getting sick and giving your body the lead in fighting the disease is the right thing to do. Our children need to get sick and develop antibodies and enhance their immunity systems.

Don't interfere with that unless you REALLY have to.

so true , the body needs to know his enemy ,
infection >>> pathogen recognition >>> antibody formation >>> attacking the pathogen >> healing plus immunity against future invasion .
actually the problem of the the nowadays flu is that the body has no record of them , so it will take it long time to process as above , meanwhile the virus is growing out of control , and this is the idea of the vaccines , it should be like a false invasion preparing the body for the real one , if you guarantee that the vaccine is safe .

Which we know are not

Actually many cases -according to Egyptian, English and Japanese TVs- got the H1N1 and got cured via normal antibiotics without even knowing they had it!

This is not a medical info that I checked. This is what some TVs around the world are saying.

Allah (SWT) knows best.
