10 SIGNS OF A TOXIC PARENT ⚠️

1️⃣ Constant criticism – rarely praises, focuses on flaws
2️⃣ Controlling behavior – dictates every choice, ignoring boundaries
3️⃣ Manipulation & guilt-tripping – uses guilt to control actions
4️⃣ Lack of empathy – dismisses your feelings or needs
5️⃣ Favoritism or comparison – pits siblings or peers against each other
6️⃣ Excessive anger or hostility – quick to lash out or punish
7️⃣ Inconsistent discipline – unpredictable rules and reactions
8️⃣ Over-involvement or neglect – either smothering or emotionally absent
9️⃣ Using love conditionally – love depends on obedience or performance
🔟 Blaming & shaming – refuses responsibility and blames you for problems

🤍 Recognizing toxic behavior is the first step to setting healthy boundaries.

ACE inhibitor (angiotensin-converting enzyme)
Def:
ACE inhibitors are a class of drugs that work by blocking the angiotensin converting enzyme which decrease the production of angiotensin II, a substance that constricts blood vessels. This leads to lower blood pressure and reduced strain on the heart.

Contraindicated:
pregnancy due to potential fetal harm.

Mechanism of Action
ACE inhibitors block the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which is responsible for converting angiotensin I to angiotensin II.
Angiotensin II causes blood vessels to constrict and stimulates the release of aldosterone, a hormone that causes sodium and water retention, both of which increase blood pressure.
By blocking this conversion, ACE inhibitors cause blood vessels to relax (vasodilation) and reduce the body's sodium and water retention, which lowers blood pressure.

Side Effects
Common: Dry cough, dizziness, headache, fatigue, and low blood pressure (hypotension).
Less Common: Angioedema (swelling of the face, lips, and throat), hyperkalemia (high potassium), and increased blood levels of creatinine.

Drug Class
Class: ACE Inhibitors
At the last of drug mean (suffix pril)

Examples: Captopril, enalapril, and lisinopril Ramipril Fosinopril Benazepril are common examples of this class of drugs.

🌿 Qur’an & Medicine 🌿

📖 Qur’an (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:184):

اَیَّامًا مَّعۡدُوۡدٰتٍ ؕ فَمَنۡ کَانَ مِنۡکُمۡ مَّرِیۡضًا اَوۡ عَلٰی سَفَرٍ فَعِدَّۃٌ مِّنۡ اَیَّامٍ اُخَرَ ؕ وَ عَلَی الَّذِیۡنَ یُطِیۡقُوۡنَہٗ فِدۡیَۃٌ طَعَامُ مِسۡکِیۡنٍ ؕ فَمَنۡ تَطَوَّعَ خَیۡرًا فَہُوَ خَیۡرٌ لَّہٗ ؕ وَ اَنۡ تَصُوۡمُوۡا خَیۡرٌ لَّکُمۡ اِنۡ کُنۡتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُوۡنَ ﴿۱۸۴﴾
"[Fasting for] a limited number of days. So whoever among you is ill or on a journey [during them] - then an equal number of days [are to be made up]. And upon those who are able [to fast, but with hardship] - a ransom [as substitute] of feeding a poor person [each day]. And whoever volunteers excess - it is better for him. But to fast is best for you, if you only knew. "
" گنتی کے چند ہی دن ہیں لیکن تم میں سے جو شخص بیمار ہو یا سفر میں ہو تو وہ اور دنوں میں گنتی کو پورا کر لے اور اس کی طاقت رکھنے والے فدیہ میں ایک مسکین کو کھانا دیں پھر جو شخص نیکی میں سبقت کرے وہ اسی کے لئے بہتر ہے لیکن تمہارے حق میں بہتر کام روزے "رکھنا ہی ہے اگر تم باعلم ہو

So ,
Islam emphasized flexibility in health — exemption from fasting during illness is one of the earliest principles of patient-centered care.

Today, medicine also prioritizes individualized treatment to avoid harm and promote recovery.
🌙 Medical Insight:

Fasting in Ramadan and intermittent fasting today are proven to:
✅ Improve metabolic health (better blood sugar control).
✅ Reduce inflammation.
✅ Support heart health.
✅ Aid in cell repair (autophagy).

🩺 Message: The Qur’an prescribed fasting not only as worship but also as a way to improve health — modern science now confirms its benefits.
