The plants of barley are very similiar to wheat and  the seeds are elongated in shape in comparison to wheat with a covering  of light yellow colour. Prophet Muahmmad (Pbuh) liked it very much and  used it in various forms such as barley bread, gruel and dough.    During the period of the Prophet (Pbuh) the people  either used to eat the Barley bread or to mix the wheat flour with  Barley flour to prepare the bread generally. One lad used to sell the  preparation from Beet roots and barley at the gate of Masjid-e-Nabwi on  every Friday and it is said that the companions liked this preparation  as much as they used to wait for Friday eagerly.    Hazrat Ummul Manzar states that the Prophet (Pbuh)  along with Hazrat Ali came to our house, we had the dates and those were  presented to them. Both of them ate from those dates. When Hazrat Ali  consumed a little of those, the Prophet (Pbuh) said “You recently  recovered from illness, hence you are weak, hence don’t eat more.  Therefore, that lady prepared a dish from barley and beet root. Then,  the Prophet (Pbuh) told Hazrat Ali “eat from it, it is better for you”. (Ibn-e-Maja, Sanad-e-Ahmed, Tirmizi)    This proves that after illness, the preparation made from barley and beet roots is very good tonic for weak persons.    Hazrat Anas Bin Malik states that a tailor invited  the Prophet (Pbuh) to meals. He prepared the barley bread and meat with  Pumpkin. The Prophet (Pbuh) very effectionately ate the pumpkin pieces  from the curry. (Bukhari, Muslim)    Yousuf Bin Abdullah Bin Salam states that I saw the  Prophet taking a piece of barley bread and put a date on it and stated  that was bread’s vegetable (salan). (Abu Dawood)    The barley gruel was especially prepared after  boiling barley with milk and sweetened with honey. That preparation was  called as Talbina.    Whenever a person of the family of the Prophet fell  sick then it was ordered that the barley gruel should be prepared for  him. Then he used to state “it removes the grief of the patients heart,  removes its weakness as any of you removes the dirt from your face after  washing it”. (Ibn Maja)    Hazrat Aisha (R.A) used to order preparation of  Talbina for sick person and used to tell “though the patient dislike it,  but it is highly beneficial for him. (Bukhari)    Another narration is found on record from Hazrat  Aisha Siddiqua (R.A). Whenever anyone complained of loss of appetite to  the Prophet (Pbuh). He ordered to use Talbina and stated “By Allah who hold my life, this removes the dirts of your abdomen as one of you removes the dirt of your face by washing it”.    Powdered barley (Sattoo) was very much liked by the  Prophet (Pbuh). At the time of victory of Khaibar, the Prophet agreed to  marry to Hazrat Safia, the very next day he directed to Hazrat Anas Bin  Malik to invite the people to attend the Dawat-e-Walima of Hazrat  Safia. According to the narrations of Tirmizi and Ibn Majah  the walima comprised of dates and sattoo, but according to Bukhari a  confection was prepared from dates, barley and sattoo and served before  the guests.    In Nisai, Abu Dawood, Bukhari, Ibn-e-Majah, Tirmizi  and Ahmed Bin Hambal, there are 21 hadiths recommending the consumption  of Sattoo. Besides this the description of Sattoo is also available in  other Hadiths.    According to the scholars of hadith barley is very  nutritious and provides energy for the body, besides this is also  beneficial in pharyngitis and cough. It resolves the inflammation of the  stomach (Gastritis), expells the toxins from the body and a good  diuretic. It quenches the thirst. Barley water is a good remedy in  kidney problem, to quench the thirst and provide the best nutrition for  indisposed and weak persons. preparation of Barley water is described by  Ibn Al-Qayyim. According to him, barley with five times water should be  boiled, till the contents become 3/4 and the colour of the mixture  becomes milky.    Scientists have found the following items during the  chemical synthesis of barley- albuminoids, starch, fat, fibre, ash and  water. Chemical composition shows that it contains the fat in the form  of Leucosine Gluten Albumen, the compound of Nitrogen as palmatic Acid,  Salisylic Acid, Phosphoric Acid. Besides, it contains Hypoxanthens.  British Pharmacopoeia recommends Malt extract for internal use. It  contains 4 per cent Protiens, the enzymes for digestion of carbohydrates  and vitamins. Some scientists also indicate the presence of Arsenic in  the barley grain.    The ancient physician’s explained various experiences  regarding the use of barley. Ibn Sina says that the blood produced by  consuming barley is neutral, pure and of low consistancy. According  to Firdous Al-Hikmat the suspension prepared from one part of barley  and fifteen part of water untill after boiling this volume becomes 2/3rd  of its basic solution, is beneficial for at least hundered diseases of  the body. </blockquote>
