Scientists have proved that the outer face of the fly contains antibiotics and this discovery is very recently, but the Prophet peace be upon him referred to this in his words: (If a fly falls into the drink of anyone, he should dip it then remove it, as there is a disease in one of its wings and a cure in the other).
The Hadith:
Al-Bukhari and Ibn-Magah narrated that Abu-Horaira said that the Prophet Mohammad peace be upon him said: (If a fly falls into the drink of anyone, he should dip it then remove it, as there is a disease in one of its wings and a cure in the other).
The explanation of Hadith:
This Hadith includes a notification from the Prophet peace be upon him about a scientific issue concerning the wing of the fly as the Prophet confirmed that there is a cure in its wing. He also mentioned that the fly that we consider a storehouse for epidemics and diseases, inside it there is cure. And that this cure gets out through dipping the fly in the liquid.
In the modern era, scientists have found through their laboratory experiments on flies that it actually contains antibiotics and they are substances that kill harmful bacteria. And they also found that the best way to extract these antibacterial substances is to dip the fly into the liquid.
The point of inimitability:
From this Hadith, it was shown that the fly carries on one of its wings the cure. And this is a scientific fact that wasn’t known except from only one or two years, but the Prophet peace be upon him referred to this fact in his words: (as there is a disease in one of its wings and a cure in the other). And this is from the signs of prophecy of Mohammad peace be upon him. And this Hadith confirms that He doesn’t say anything from himself.
