This hadith speaks about the blessings of eating olives and using its oil. It was narrated by Umar bin Al-Khattab that the Prophet Muhammad said “Eat olive and use its oil, for indeed it is a blessed tree”. Eating olives has many health benefits as it contains healthy fats which can help reduce cholesterol levels in the body. It also contains antioxidants which can help protect against certain diseases such as cancer and heart disease. Using olive oil has many benefits too; it can be used to cook food or even applied directly to skin for moisturizing purposes. Olive trees are also known to be very resilient and long lasting; they are able to survive in harsh climates with little water or nutrients from the soil making them an ideal crop for farmers in dry areas. All these qualities make olives a truly blessed tree!
