Imam al-Sadiq (PBUH) said: The one who loves for the sake of Allah, hates for the sake of Allah, and donates (things) for the sake of Allah, thus he is one of those whose Faith is complete.

One study in 200 young women found that those who reported an insufficient dietary intake of iron were six times more likely to have anemia compared to those with adequate intake.

Regularly eating fava beans and other iron-rich plant foods may increase blood iron levels and improve anemia symptoms

Eating iron-rich fava beans may help with symptoms of anemia.

Iron is needed to produce hemoglobin, the protein that enables your red blood cells to carry oxygen through your body. An iron deficiency can lead to anemia, characterized by fatigue, weakness, dizziness and shortness of breath.

Imam Ali ibn Husayn (PBUH) said: He who acts according to what Allah has enjoined for him, is of the best people.

Additional research has shown that manganese and copper in combination with calcium and zinc may prevent bone loss in healthy older women.

Research in both animals and humans suggests that adequate levels of manganese and copper — two nutrients that are abundant in fava beans — may promote bone strength.

Imam Al-Jawad, (PBUH) said: He who has confidence in Allah, sees joy; and he who trusts on Him, He will suffice his affairs.

Imam as-Sadiq (PBUH) said: There are three things which are the honour of a believer and his ornament both in this world and the next. They are: prayers in the last part of night (night prayers), not coveting what people possess in their hands, and the love of an Imam from the progeny of Muhammad (peace be upon them).

Human research also suggests that manganese and copper are vital to bone strength.

A one-year study in postmenopausal women with weak bones found that taking a supplement with manganese and copper, as well as vitamin D, calcium and other nutrients, improved bone mass.

Fava beans are rich in manganese and copper — two nutrients that may prevent bone loss.

Their exact role in bone health is unclear, but rat studies suggest that manganese and copper deficiencies may lead to decreased bone formation and increased calcium excretion.

Fava beans contain compounds that have been shown to boost antioxidant activity of human cells in test-tube studies. Since antioxidants enhance immune function, eating fava beans may boost immunity, but more research is needed.

The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) told Gabriel to preach to him, and he said: Live howsoever you like but you will surely die; love whatsoever you like but you will surely depart from it; do whatsoever you likThe Messenger of Allah (PBUH) told Gabriel to preach to him, and he said: Live howsoever you like but e but you will certainly meet it (and receive its reward). The honour of a (Muslim) believer is his midnight prayers, and his nobility is his refraining from (ruining) the reputation of people.

One test-tube study found that treating human lung cells with extracts from fava beans increased their antioxidant activity by up to 62.5%.

In addition, fava beans contain compounds that have been shown to enhance the ability of the powerful antioxidant glutathione in human cells and delay cellular aging.
