Assalamu Alaikom, when the Sheikh was discussing whether their is any cure in flies or not, I remembered seeing something on TV a while back about infection being cured with maggots (which are the 2nd life stage of a fly). I know it sounds icky, but I found a couple articles about this. Insha'Allah it just proves how knowledgeable the Prophet (sallalahu alleihi wa sallam) was by the permission of Allah Subhana wa Ta'ala and the truth of this deen alhamdulilah. You can see the articles here (http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2003/10/1024_031024_maggotmedicine.html) and here (http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/2004-07-07-leeches-maggots_x.htm). Teena
