How Healthy Living Rasulullah Saw

"The son of Adam does not fill a place worse than his stomach. Suffice few mouthfuls that may enable the body. If not found any other way, then (he can fill his stomach) with one-third for food, one third for drink and one third for breathing. "(Reported by Ibn Majah and Ibn Hibban)
It is said that during his lifetime the Prophet Muhammad just sick twice. Ie after receiving the first revelation, when the fear that he suffered greatly, causing severe fever. The other was ahead of his death. At that time he was experiencing severe pain, and eventually died. There is a mention that the Apostle experience pain more than twice.
Whatever the number, two, three or four times, clear picture that he has a healthy physical and exceptional durability. Whereas natural conditions the Arabian Peninsula at the time was harsh, barren and hostile. Anyone who is able to survive for decades in these conditions, plus dozens of times of war she lived, must have great endurance.
Why Prophet rarely sick? The interesting question to put forward. Outwardly, the Prophet Muhammad rarely sick of being able to prevent things that could potentially bring disease. In other words, he emphasizes the aspect of prevention rather than treatment. If we examine the Qur'an and Sunnah, then we will find so many clues that lead to prevention. This indicates how the Prophet Muhammad are very concerned about health. In Sahih Bukhari alone no less than 80 hadith that discuss this issue. Not to mention widespread in Sahih Muslim, Sunan Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi, Bayhaqi, Ahmad, etc.
How to maintain a healthy Messenger
There are some positive habits that make the Prophet Muhammad always appear fit and rarely sick. Among them:
First, selective towards food. No food into his mouth, but the food is halal and thayyib eligible (good). Halal relating to the affairs of the Hereafter, that is kosher and halal way to get the goods. While thayyib related to worldly affairs, such as whether or not or whether nutritious food consumed. One of the Apostles favorite food is honey. He used to drink honey mixed with water to wash the water winch and digestion. Prophet said, "Should you use two drugs, namely honey and the Koran" (HR. Ibn Majah and Hakim).
Second, do not eat before hungry and stop eating before satiety. The rule, the capacity of the stomach is divided into three parts, the third for food (solid), one-third for drink (liquid), and a third for air (gas). Spoken, "The son of Adam does not fill a place worse than his stomach. Suffice it to them a few mouthfuls that can enable the body. If not found any other way, then (he can fill his stomach) with one-third for food, one third for drink and one third for breathing "(Reported by Ibn Majah and Ibn Hibban).
Third, eating quietly, tumaninah, unhurried, with a moderate tempo. What is the lesson? How to eat like this will prevent choking, biting, digestive organs work became lighter. Food can chew better, so that the digestive organs work could walk perfectly. The food is not chewed well be difficult to digest. In the long term can cause cancer in the colon.
Fourth, fast asleep and wake up quickly. He slept in the early evening and wake up in the middle of the second night. Typically, the Prophet got up and cleansing his teeth, and then perform ablution and prayer until the time allowed of God. He never slept exceed the needs, but also refrained from sleep than needed. Research Daniel F Kripke, psychiatrist from the University of California interesting to say. Research conducted in Japan and the US for 6 years with 30-120 year-old respondents said that people who used to sleep 8 hours a day had a risk of earlier death. The very opposite of those who used to sleep 6-7 hours a day. Well, the Prophet used to sleep after Isha and then wake up at night. So he did not sleep more than 8 hours.
His manner was full of meaning. Ibn Qayyim Al Jawziyya the Prophet Treatment Methods book reveals that the Apostle slept with the body tilting to the right, while remembrance of Allah until his eyes felt heavy. Sometimes he leaned to the left for a while, and then back to the right. Sleep like this is the most efficient sleep. At that time the food could be in the right position with the stomach so it can settle proportionally. Then turning to the left for a while so that the process of digestion is faster because the stomach leads to the liver, and then turned again to the right until the end of the bed so that faster tersuplai food from the stomach. Other Lessons, sleeping with your right side causing him easier to get up for the night prayer.

Among purification way, how indulgent eye, circumcised virtue, the virtue of a smile, etc.
