Warss - Kamala - Ceylon Cornel Tree
Ibn Qayyim in "Medicine of the Prophet" said, "Warss is dry and hot in the second degree. The best type of warss is the red warss, which is soft in the hand and does not have much bran. Warss is used as an ointment to treat spots, rashes and pimples that appear on the surface of the skin. Warss constipates, has a dyeing quality and helps against leprosy when taken as a drink. Warss has similar benefits to sea qust (costus), and if it is used as an ointment it relieves vitiligo (skin condition of unknown cause, characterized by patchy loss of pigment), rashes, pimples and ulcers. When the clothes are dyed with warss, they strengthen the sexual drive.”
