Abstract

Moslems believe that Islam is the most perfect religion and Quran the most perfect book that explains all human needs with the best style and there isn't any defect in Islam and Quran. The Holy Quran says; let man consider his food. Therefore we have decid ed to investigate the nutritional roles of those Quranic plants stated in Quran and their biochemical compounds. In this regard, Holy Quran, the book of healing and mercy, has dragged human attention toward certain plants such as Alhagi maurorum, Allium cepa, Allium sativum, Brassica nigra, Cinamoumon Camphor, Cucumis sativus, Cucurbita pepo, Ficus carica, Lens culinaris Medic, Musa sapientum, Ocimum basilicum, Olea europaea, Phoenix dactylifera, Punica granatum, Salvadora persica, Tamarix aphylla, Vitis vinifera, Zingiber officinale and Ziziphus spina_christi. Results in this research showed that most of the Quranic plants are rich in vitamins, minerals, and salts they often have significant effects on human health; hence, continuous consumption of Quranic plants, because of water, sugar, fat, protein, vitamins, and etc plays a significant role in prevention and treatment of many diseases. Plants are an essential component of the universe. Human beings have used those as medicine from the very beginning of time. According to holy Quran, plants are gifts and heavenly fruits of God. 19 plants name have been mentioned in the holy book of Moslem.
