Context: Holy Quran has brought orders and decrees for the health and prevention of diseases for mankind which obey these rules ensure not only physical health but also mental health. The mighty god in Holy Quran has discouraged humans from drinking wine several times. The purpose of this study is deliberating alcohol effects on human health from the perspective of Holy Quran, and modern medicine.Evidence and Acquisition:: In this paper by using proper keywords, an overview was made on Holy Quran, hadiths and scientific articles, available in Medline(Pubmed) and Embase as well as Persian sites such as SID and Magiran. Then effects of alcohol consumption on human health were analyzed. Holy Quran in four verses and infallible imams in several hadiths have prohibited alcohol consumption for humans. On the other hand, it leads to many socioeconomic and mental damages and results in detriments on the Central and Peripheral Nervous System. Cardiovascular System, Liver, Bone, Pancreas, Skin and Respiratory System are such organs and tissues in which bear loads of heavy irreversible injuries from alcohol consumption. Harmful effects of alcohol on fetus and causing different malignancy in several tissues are from other fatal effects which eventually lead to death. Regarding Islam’s recommendations alcohol consumption is clearly forbidden. Scientific papers also express the damaging effects of alcohol on individual health which clearly demonstrates the same concept.

This article tries to determine some cases of Arabicism in medical texts, through citing evidence from some Persian medical texts and also tries to show their significant role in the process of correction, translation, and the revision of the ancient medical texts and its ensuing research and writing of new works based on the old ones. The importance of Arabicism in medical text is that all of the ancient, important medical works written in Persian used the Arabic resources concerning this arena and in some cases, these works have been the complete “translation” of a text or a mixture of translation, interpretation of several Arabic texts. Arabicism of Persian texts which can be investigated at the levels of words and phrases, and the writing style and register and the overall structure of text has led to the complexity, ambiguity, and even the vagueness in parts of these works. Hence, to understand these texts properly which is a prerequisite for any correction, research, and writing, there should be paid enough attention to the medical Persian prose’ tendency towards the Arabic language. This study is library-based in which reference books of traditional medicine are investigated and categorized and the explanation of the items is done just by using the resources. By referring to the samples, the extracted features through their analysis we can determine the extent of Persian texts’ use of the Arabian writing style and words. Then, in addition to providing some evidence so as to clarify the issue, it is possible to propose methods for interpreting and using these texts. In the early centuries, the tendency to write in an Arabic style has been less and the use of Arabic terminology and words has been less frequent. In the works of this period, some writers have used “Akhish” and “Mayeh” etc. even instead of expressions such “Rokne” and “khelt” etc. But in recent centuries, most doctors have resisted this and left their use. As a result, Arabicism has been prevalent in the Persian medical texts within this period. shedding light on the angles of the Persian’s tendency towards the Arabian words, combinations and writing style is an approach to removing ambiguities regarding these texts and making precise documentaries out of them when correcting them, which should be done soon or late. Undoubtedly, the precise correction of these texts based on the consideration of their language features can smooth the way for writing the new medical books in modern Persian language and as such it will cause the Iranian medicine to be flourished and thrived.

In Quran, the great, Surah Baghareh, Verse 255, it is stated: “Who is he aware of everything and the limited knowledge of humankind originates in His unending and unlimited knowledge”. One of these sciences is the science of Pharmaceutical plants. Recognizing these plants plays an important role in the improvement of human society health. Herbal therapy is one of the supplement methods for improving the health rate. In Al-Rahman, verse 11, the significance of plants and fruits is mentioned. One of the mentioned plants is Urtica dioica, which is anti-diabetic. The objective of this study is to determine the protective effect of extract of Urtica dioica leaf on small intestine structure in order to find its anti-diabetic effect. At first, the rats were injected 50 kg. mg-1 of Streptozotocin via their tail vane. The fasting animals with more than 250 mg dl-1 blood sugar was diagnosed as diabetic. One diabetic group was under therapy of blue extract of Urtica dioica leaf (daily injection of 4 cc kg -1 in Peritoneum). The blood sample and tissue of the intestine were prepared after two months of therapy and killing animals. The Histologist saw the samples tissue. The quality of parameters of tissue was assessed in both the therapeutic and non-therapeutic groups. The blood sugar decreased from 400 ± 54.2 mg dl -1 to 78.9 ± 11.9 dl (P > 0.0004) in therapeuticgroup while the blood sugar was not found in diabetic group. The mononuclear cells and destructive tissues were found in necrosis and infiltration of diabetic group, also epithelium and Lieberkuhn glands were destructed and the villain became short and atrophy 9 and the high level of blood shedding and exudate were found. Incontrast, necrosis were not found in therapeutic group and infiltration of mononuclear cells and inflammation tissues were found slightly. There were not shorted villain andatrophy. Consuming Urtica dioica prevents the intestinal side effects of diabetes. Urtica dioica protects themucosa of small intestine. This may lead to recovery of blood transfusion with decreasing end product mechanism (Advanced glicosylation end product) or improving the function of the nervous system by decreasing Sorbitol production. Further studies are needed for determining the major mechanisms..

the aim of this study was to evaluate the association between Quran commands and marital satisfaction in family.Methods and materials: this study is performed with quantitative methods and survey technique by using a questionnaire. The sample size was families living in Marand city. By using Cochran formula and based on systematic randomized sampling, 360 persons were survived. the study results showed that there is a meaningful association between Quran commands and marital satisfaction. It means that the more commitment to Quran commands the more marital satisfaction results. Based on multifactorial regression equation, among all evaluated variables, commitment to Quran commands, individual age and education explain 53 percent of all dependent variable changes. Religion and emulation of families to religious principles regarding the emphasis of Islam to have a measured and correct behavior could be an important factor against life complications, so it is proposed that there is less marital dissatisfaction in religious families. While our society is on the way of industrialization, but with these changes, religious beliefs and values have preserved their character, and play roles as a powerful supremacy observing society behaviors..
