Three types of honeybees involve in making honey
for humans; they are workers, the queen and the drones.
Workers are common bees which we see around us. They
bring nectar from flowers in hive and protect it. The queens function
is to lay eggs that wire produce next generation of bees and also
guide the other bees. Male bees are called drones. Several drones
live in the hives. All bees live on stored honey.
Bees are said to be Allah’s miracles Surat-un-Nahl 68-69:
“And your Lord inspired the bee; set up hives in the
mountains and in the trees, and in what they construct.
Then eat of all fruits (and flower),and go along the
pathways of your Lord (for making of honey), with precision”
Allah says in Quran: “Indeed in that is a sign for a people
who give thought”. Here Allah asks us to think about honeybees
and their working.
Honeybees also teach us to rely Allah alone and stay efficient.
The Prophet of Allah also told about the benefit of Honey which is
prepared by honeybees. There is a “Shifa” in honey.
