Experts say that a dose of sugar given as a gel to babies is rubbed inside the cheek of premature babies to protect them in an effective and cheap way to provide protection against brain damage.
Low blood sugar dangerously affects one in 10 babies which are born early. It can cause permanent harm if it is not treated.
The gel therapy was tested in 242 babies under the researchers and it is said that now it should be the first-line treatment, According to researchers from New Zealand. Their work is published in the lancet.
SUGAR DOSE
It is said by Prof Jane and her team at the University of Auckland that per baby, the cost of dextrose gel treatment is over £1, and it is simpler to administer than glucose through a drip.Currently, the treatment includes more feeding and continuous blood tests to measure the levels of blood sugar.
Most of the babies are admitted to extra and intensive care. They are provided intravenous glucose because their blood sugar is low, and doctors Often call it hypoglycemia.The study estimated if treatment with dextrose gel was more beneficial than feeding alone at reversing hypoglycemia.
These procedures suggested that it should be considered a treatment even though Dextrose gel had fallen into disuse, as Neil Marlow said from the institute for Women’s health at University College of London.
He also said that he had high-quality proof that it was valuable.According to new research, it is an exciting piece. The researchers welcome everything that can provide better outcomes and results for sick and premature born babies. As said by the chief executive of a premature baby charity called Andy Cole.
This is a cost-effective treatment and could lessen the admissions towards high care services that are working at high capacity levels.There is yet more research to be done for the implementation of this treatment. However still, its early results show advantages to premature babies who have low blood sugar by birth.

At that time, Quraish of Makkah was the biggest enemy of Muhammad (PBUH). 622AD was the first year of Hijrah, Hijrah means migration.

Miraj is one of the most talked-about events in Islam. Isra and Miraj are the two parts of the night of Journey which our Beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) took.
About Isra and Miraj it is being mentioned in surah al-Isra. In Isra, the first part of the night, Jibrael came to the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and then he rode on the Buraq, which is larger than a donkey and smaller than a mule. On buraq he traveled from Makkah (Masjid al-Haram) to Al-Aqsa Mosque in just a second, to be noted, the distance between these two destinations is 1239.42 KM and takes around 1 hour and 52 minutes if you travel from Airplane, but our Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) completed it in just a few seconds.

Sidrat Al-Muntaha (Where 50 prayers were enjoined on him, then reduced to 5.)
What is Baitul Ma’mur?
It is a house, which is located in the 7th heaven, directly above the Kaaba (Allah’s house). Angels perform the tawaf of this house as we do around the Kaaba during Hajj and Umrah, the Kaaba on the earth is the replica of it. The 70,000 angels visit this house daily and say their prayers as well as it will continue until the day of Judgement. (Sahih al-Bukhari 3207 and Sahih Muslim

Dua For Travelling
One of the best things about Islam is that we have dua almost everything. From eating, sitting, sleeping, and even traveling. There can be many benefits for us to recite duas.
Benefits Of Dua For Travelling
Whenever a Muslim travels or steps out of the home for a journey, whether it is a short distance or long distance traveling, we recite some duas. So we can have a safe journey and receive the blessings of Almighty Allah.
If a person recites dua for traveling, then the Angels protect you while you get back home.
Reciting dua when traveling can save an individual from incidents that one has never imagined.
By reciting dua, a person is more likely to perform good deeds and have a positive day ahead.
Allah grants the traveler ease in his journey.
Reciting duas leads towards blessings from Allah.
Hundreds of thousands of people usually die because of traffic accidents in bikes, cars, planes, etc., all across the world, so traveling can be quite fatal. As we grew up, we have heard about a lot of plane crashes and other dangerous events. So we need to seek help from Allah to stay protected and safe, and he is the only one who can protect us from dangerous hazards and accidents.
We must also try our best to minimize our traveling unless it is necessary or urgent as Muslims. We need to recite duas more often so we can stay blessed and safe from the curse of shaitan at the same time.
