Talbina - A Simple Islamic Recipe for Healing Hearts

Life is a journey full of ups and downs. In this journey of life, we go through the joys and griefs of living. Joy, nourishes our hearts and boosts our spirits. Whereas the grief takes its toll from our hearts and drains our souls.

I am going to share a simple but very special recipe that is known to heal the grieving hearts. It is called “Talbina”.

Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) said :

“It (Talbina) soothes grieving heart and cleanses the ailing heart, just as one of you cleans dirt off his face with water”
