The honey bee
INTRODUCTION
 It is well known that honey is a fundamental food
  source for the human body, whereas only a few
people are aware of the extraordinary qualities of its
                      producer
                 THE HONEYBEE
The food source of bees is nectar, which is not found
                  during winter.
For this reason, they combine the nectar collected in
 summer time with special secretions of their body,
produce a new nutrient - honey - and store it for the
               coming winter months.
The honey bee
It is noteworthy that the amount of honey stored by bees is
              much greater than their actual need
“And He has made everything in the heavens and
everything in the earth subservient to you. It is all from
Him. There are certainly signs in that for people who
reflect.” [Al-Jathiya: 13]
Bees produce honey not only for themselves but also for human
beings. They are also dedicated to the service of man, just as the
chicken lays at least one egg a day although it does not need it, and
the cow produces much more milk than its offspring needs.

MAXIMUM STORAGE WITH
      MINIMUM MATERIAL
Bees construct hives in which 30,000 bees can live and work together
               by shaping small portions of beeswax.
  The hive is made up of beeswax-walled honeycombs, which have
     hundreds of tiny cells of equal size on each of their faces.
 Bees use HEXAGONAL structure for construction of honeycomb
 cells. Hexagonal cells require minimal amounts of wax in terms of
      construction while they store maximal amounts of honey.
  Mathematicians give the reason: "the hexagonal structure is the
most suitable geometric form for the maximum use of unit area." If
honeycomb cells were constructed in another form, then there would
  be areas left unused; thus, less honey would be stored, and fewer
                 bees would be able to benefit from it.

EXCELLENT ORGANIZATION IN
         THE HIVE
     Regulation of humidity and ventilation
•The humidity of the hive, which gives honey its highly protective
quality, must be kept within certain limits. The temperature in the
hive has to be 32° C throughout 10 months of the year. In order to
keep the temperature and humidity of the hive within certain
limits, a special group takes charge of "ventilation".
•On a hot day, the entrance of the hive fills with bees and
clamping themselves to the wooden structure, they fan the hive
with their wings. Extra ventilator bees work within the hive to
push the air to all corners of the hive.
•This ventilation system is also useful in protecting the hive from
smoke and air pollution.
Health system
The main purpose of this system is to remove all substances likely to
cause bacteria production. To secure this, two guardians are always
kept at the entrance of the hive. If a foreign substance or insect
enters the hive despite this precaution, all bees act to remove it from
the hive.
Another protection system, embalming, is used to embalm bigger
foreign bodies that cannot be prevented from entering and cannot be
removed. This is done with a substance called “propolis (bee resin)”
This has the feature of not allowing any bacteria to live in it. It is
also used to patch cracks in the hive.

It is evident that the BEE has neither any knowledge on this subject
                     nor a laboratory in its body.
 THE BEE is only an insect 1-2 cm in size and it only does that with
                 which its Lord has inspired it.
BEES raise beehives 13o on both sides which does not allow honey to leak out from
                           the mouth of the beehive.
 While working, worker bees hang onto each other in circles. By doing this, they
           provide the necessary temperature for wax production.
 Little sacks in their abdomens produce a transparent liquid, which leaks out and
hardens the thin wax layers. Bees collect the wax with the little hooks on their legs.
   They put this wax into their mouths, and chew and process it until it softens
                       enough and so give it shape in the cells.
MICROSCOPIC VIEW OF A HONEYBEE’S LEG
‫ثم كل م كل ثمر ت‬
ِ ‫ُ ّ ُ ِي ِن ُ ّ ال ّ َ َا‬
  …then eat from
every kind of fruit…
       (V68)
METHOD OF MARKING
    FLOWERS
     The bees, when they visit a
    flower, mark it by leaving a
      drop on it with a special
     scent. Whenever a new bee
   looks in on the same flower, it
        smells the scent and
   understands that the flower is
   of no use and so goes towards
   another flower. Thus, bees do
     not waste time on the same
              flower.
‫ف لك سبل ربك ُُل‬
                    ً ‫َاسُْ ِي ُ ُ َ َ ّ ِ ذل‬
    …and travel the paths of your
lord,made easy for you to follow. (V68)
 HOW THEY DETERMINE THEIR DIRECTION
  Bees usually have to fly long distances to find food. They collect
flower pollens and the constituents of honey within a range of 800m
                             of the hive.
A bee, which finds flowers, flies back to its hive to let others know,
    and describes the location of the flowers to the other bees
                            by dancing!
 The bee returning to the hive starts to perform a dance. This
  dance tells the other bees the location of the flowers and is
                     repeated many times.
This dance is actually a figure "8" constantly repeated by the bee.
The angle between the zigzags and the line between the sun and the
         hive gives the exact direction of the food source.

THE MIRACLE OF HONEY
•Honey is composed of sugars like glucose and
fructose and minerals like magnesium, potassium,
calcium, sodium chlorine, sulphur, iron and
phosphate.
•It contains vitamins B1, B2, C, B6, B5 and B3 all
of which change according to the qualities of the
nectar and pollen.
• Moreover, copper, iodine, and zinc exist in it in
small quantities. Several kinds of hormones are
also present in it.
As Allah says in the Qur’an, honey is a
   "healing for men". This scientific fact was
 confirmed by scientists who said that honey,
royal jelly, pollen and propolis (bee resin) cure
 many diseases. They also confirmed that bee
  resin helps to cure many diseases such as
  hemorrhoids, skin problems, gynecological
      diseases and many other disorders.
THE MIRACLE OF HONEY
Easily digested:       Because sugar molecules in honey can convert
into other sugars (e.g. fructose to glucose), honey is easily digested
by the most sensitive stomachs, despite its high acid content. It helps
kidneys and intestines to function better.

Has a low calorie level:Another             quality of honey is that,
when it is compared with the same amount of sugar, it gives 40%
less calories to the body. Although it gives great energy to the body,
it does not add weight.

Rapidly diffuses through the blood:When accompanied
by mild water, honey diffuses into the bloodstream in 7 minutes. Its
free sugar molecules make the brain function better since the brain
is the largest consumer of sugar.
THE MIRACLE OF HONEY
Does not accommodate bacteria:This                        bactericide
(bacteria-killing) property of honey is named "the inhibition effect".
Experiments conducted on honey show that its bactericide
properties increase twofold when diluted with water. It is very
interesting to note that newly born bees in the colony are nourished
with diluted honey by the bees responsible for their supervision - as
if they know this feature of the honey.

Supports blood formation:Honey                 provides an important
part of the energy needed by the body for blood formation. In
addition, it helps in cleansing the blood. It has some positive effects
in regulating and facilitating blood circulation. It also functions as a
protection against capillary problems and arteriosclerosis.
THE MIRACLE OF HONEY
Royal Jelly: Royal jelly is a substance produced by worker bees
inside the beehive. Inside this nutritious substance are sugar,
proteins, fats and many vitamins. It is used in problems caused by
tissue deficiency or body frailty.

         It is obvious that honey, which is
    produced in much greater amounts than
     the requirements of the bees, is made
       for the benefit of man. And it is also
    obvious that bees cannot perform such
      an unbelievable task "on their own."
‫إن ف ذلك ية لق م يتفكر ن‬
            َ ‫ِ ّ ِي َ ِ َ ل َ ً ّ َوْ ٍ َ َ َ ّ ُو‬
  ...there is certainly a sign in that for
         people who reflect. (V69)

Bees are guided from a unique source and thus they
  successfully come to perform tasks which they
 otherwise would not be able to. It is not instinct, a
  term with no definition, that guides bees but the
  "inspiration" mentioned in Surah an-Nahl. What
these tiny animals do is implement the program that
         Allah has particularly set for them.

The honey bee

  • 2. INTRODUCTION It is well known that honey is a fundamental food source for the human body, whereas only a few people are aware of the extraordinary qualities of its producer THE HONEYBEE The food source of bees is nectar, which is not found during winter. For this reason, they combine the nectar collected in summer time with special secretions of their body, produce a new nutrient - honey - and store it for the coming winter months.
  • 4. It is noteworthy that the amount of honey stored by bees is much greater than their actual need “And He has made everything in the heavens and everything in the earth subservient to you. It is all from Him. There are certainly signs in that for people who reflect.” [Al-Jathiya: 13] Bees produce honey not only for themselves but also for human beings. They are also dedicated to the service of man, just as the chicken lays at least one egg a day although it does not need it, and the cow produces much more milk than its offspring needs.
  • 5. ‫‪SURAH AN-NAHL‬‬ ‫)96-86 ‪(VERSE‬‬ ‫ ‬ ‫وأ ح ربك إل ن ل أن تخذ من جب ل بي ت ومن‬ ‫ََوْ َى َ ّ َ ِ َى ال ّحْ ِ َ ِ ا ّ ِ ِي ِ َ الْ ِ َا ِ ُ ُو ًا َ ِ َ‬ ‫ال ّ َ ِ َ ِ ّا َعْ ِ ُون‬ ‫شجر ومم ي رش‬ ‫) 8 6(‬ ‫ُ ّ ُ ِي ِن ُ ّ ال ّ َ َا ِ َاسُْ ِي ُ ُ َ َ ّ ِ ذل ً َخْ ُ ُ ِن‬ ‫ثم كل م كل ثمر ت ف لك سبل ربك ُُل ي رج م‬ ‫بط نه شر ب م تلف أ و نه ف ه شف ل ن س إن ف ذلك‬ ‫ُ ُو ِ َا َ َا ٌ ّخْ َ ِ ٌ َلْ َا ُ ُ ِي ِ ِ َاء ِل ّا ِ ِ ّ ِي َ ِ َ‬ ‫ية لق م يتفكر ن‬ ‫ل َ ً ّ َوْ ٍ َ َ َ ّ ُو َ‬ ‫) 9 6(‬
  • 7. … َ ِ َ ‫ا ّ ِ ِي ِ َ الْ ِ َا ِ ُ ُو ًا‬ ‫تخذ من جب ل بي ت ومن‬ ‫ال ّ َ ِ َ ِ ّا َعْ ِ ُون‬ ‫شجر ومم ي رش‬ “…build dwellings in the mountains and the trees and also in the structures which men erect…”(V:68)
  • 10. MAXIMUM STORAGE WITH MINIMUM MATERIAL Bees construct hives in which 30,000 bees can live and work together by shaping small portions of beeswax. The hive is made up of beeswax-walled honeycombs, which have hundreds of tiny cells of equal size on each of their faces. Bees use HEXAGONAL structure for construction of honeycomb cells. Hexagonal cells require minimal amounts of wax in terms of construction while they store maximal amounts of honey. Mathematicians give the reason: "the hexagonal structure is the most suitable geometric form for the maximum use of unit area." If honeycomb cells were constructed in another form, then there would be areas left unused; thus, less honey would be stored, and fewer bees would be able to benefit from it.
  • 12. EXCELLENT ORGANIZATION IN THE HIVE Regulation of humidity and ventilation •The humidity of the hive, which gives honey its highly protective quality, must be kept within certain limits. The temperature in the hive has to be 32° C throughout 10 months of the year. In order to keep the temperature and humidity of the hive within certain limits, a special group takes charge of "ventilation". •On a hot day, the entrance of the hive fills with bees and clamping themselves to the wooden structure, they fan the hive with their wings. Extra ventilator bees work within the hive to push the air to all corners of the hive. •This ventilation system is also useful in protecting the hive from smoke and air pollution.
  • 13. Health system The main purpose of this system is to remove all substances likely to cause bacteria production. To secure this, two guardians are always kept at the entrance of the hive. If a foreign substance or insect enters the hive despite this precaution, all bees act to remove it from the hive. Another protection system, embalming, is used to embalm bigger foreign bodies that cannot be prevented from entering and cannot be removed. This is done with a substance called “propolis (bee resin)” This has the feature of not allowing any bacteria to live in it. It is also used to patch cracks in the hive. It is evident that the BEE has neither any knowledge on this subject nor a laboratory in its body. THE BEE is only an insect 1-2 cm in size and it only does that with which its Lord has inspired it.
  • 14. BEES raise beehives 13o on both sides which does not allow honey to leak out from the mouth of the beehive. While working, worker bees hang onto each other in circles. By doing this, they provide the necessary temperature for wax production. Little sacks in their abdomens produce a transparent liquid, which leaks out and hardens the thin wax layers. Bees collect the wax with the little hooks on their legs. They put this wax into their mouths, and chew and process it until it softens enough and so give it shape in the cells.

  • 16. ‫ثم كل م كل ثمر ت‬ ِ ‫ُ ّ ُ ِي ِن ُ ّ ال ّ َ َا‬ …then eat from every kind of fruit… (V68)
  • 17. METHOD OF MARKING FLOWERS The bees, when they visit a flower, mark it by leaving a drop on it with a special scent. Whenever a new bee looks in on the same flower, it smells the scent and understands that the flower is of no use and so goes towards another flower. Thus, bees do not waste time on the same flower.
  • 18. ‫ف لك سبل ربك ُُل‬ ً ‫َاسُْ ِي ُ ُ َ َ ّ ِ ذل‬ …and travel the paths of your lord,made easy for you to follow. (V68) HOW THEY DETERMINE THEIR DIRECTION Bees usually have to fly long distances to find food. They collect flower pollens and the constituents of honey within a range of 800m of the hive. A bee, which finds flowers, flies back to its hive to let others know, and describes the location of the flowers to the other bees by dancing! The bee returning to the hive starts to perform a dance. This dance tells the other bees the location of the flowers and is repeated many times.
  • 19. This dance is actually a figure "8" constantly repeated by the bee. The angle between the zigzags and the line between the sun and the hive gives the exact direction of the food source.
  • 20. ‫ي ر ُ م بط نه شر ب م تلف‬ ‫َخْ ُج ِن ُ ُو ِ َا َ َا ٌ ّخْ َ ِ ٌ‬ ‫َلْ َا ُ ُ ِي ِ ِ َاء ِل ّاس‬ ‫أ و نه ف ه ش ف ل ن ِ‬
  • 21. THE MIRACLE OF HONEY •Honey is composed of sugars like glucose and fructose and minerals like magnesium, potassium, calcium, sodium chlorine, sulphur, iron and phosphate. •It contains vitamins B1, B2, C, B6, B5 and B3 all of which change according to the qualities of the nectar and pollen. • Moreover, copper, iodine, and zinc exist in it in small quantities. Several kinds of hormones are also present in it.
  • 22. As Allah says in the Qur’an, honey is a "healing for men". This scientific fact was confirmed by scientists who said that honey, royal jelly, pollen and propolis (bee resin) cure many diseases. They also confirmed that bee resin helps to cure many diseases such as hemorrhoids, skin problems, gynecological diseases and many other disorders.
  • 23. THE MIRACLE OF HONEY Easily digested: Because sugar molecules in honey can convert into other sugars (e.g. fructose to glucose), honey is easily digested by the most sensitive stomachs, despite its high acid content. It helps kidneys and intestines to function better. Has a low calorie level:Another quality of honey is that, when it is compared with the same amount of sugar, it gives 40% less calories to the body. Although it gives great energy to the body, it does not add weight. Rapidly diffuses through the blood:When accompanied by mild water, honey diffuses into the bloodstream in 7 minutes. Its free sugar molecules make the brain function better since the brain is the largest consumer of sugar.
  • 24. THE MIRACLE OF HONEY Does not accommodate bacteria:This bactericide (bacteria-killing) property of honey is named "the inhibition effect". Experiments conducted on honey show that its bactericide properties increase twofold when diluted with water. It is very interesting to note that newly born bees in the colony are nourished with diluted honey by the bees responsible for their supervision - as if they know this feature of the honey. Supports blood formation:Honey provides an important part of the energy needed by the body for blood formation. In addition, it helps in cleansing the blood. It has some positive effects in regulating and facilitating blood circulation. It also functions as a protection against capillary problems and arteriosclerosis.
  • 25. THE MIRACLE OF HONEY Royal Jelly: Royal jelly is a substance produced by worker bees inside the beehive. Inside this nutritious substance are sugar, proteins, fats and many vitamins. It is used in problems caused by tissue deficiency or body frailty. It is obvious that honey, which is produced in much greater amounts than the requirements of the bees, is made for the benefit of man. And it is also obvious that bees cannot perform such an unbelievable task "on their own."
  • 26. ‫إن ف ذلك ية لق م يتفكر ن‬ َ ‫ِ ّ ِي َ ِ َ ل َ ً ّ َوْ ٍ َ َ َ ّ ُو‬ ...there is certainly a sign in that for people who reflect. (V69) Bees are guided from a unique source and thus they successfully come to perform tasks which they otherwise would not be able to. It is not instinct, a term with no definition, that guides bees but the "inspiration" mentioned in Surah an-Nahl. What these tiny animals do is implement the program that Allah has particularly set for them.
