Source-led research
Every guide starts with identifiable sources: scripture, classical works, reputable monographs, recognised clinical references, and peer-reviewed research where available.

How We Research and Review Content
Shifa Guide publishes educational wellness and knowledge content rooted in enduring spiritual, cultural, and traditional healing systems. Our goal is not to collect every claim on the internet; it is to present carefully checked, useful guidance with clear sources and safety context.
We treat traditional knowledge with respect while also applying modern reader safety standards. That means distinguishing primary sources from commentary, separating tradition-specific claims from general wellness advice, and avoiding exaggerated promises about cures or outcomes.
Clear tradition boundaries
We separate what belongs to a specific tradition from broader cultural practice, modern wellness interpretation, or emerging scientific research.
Safety before claims
Remedies are presented with cautions, interaction notes, and reminders to seek qualified medical care for diagnosis, emergencies, pregnancy, chronic illness, or medication use.
Corrections welcomed
If a citation, translation, safety note, or explanation can be improved, readers can contact us and we review the issue before updating the page.
Review and Update Process
Articles are written and reviewed by the Shifa Guide editorial team. When a page discusses a named remedy, practice, or source, we check whether the claim is supported by the tradition being discussed and whether modern safety notes should be included.
Health-related articles include an educational disclaimer because our content is not medical advice. Readers should consult a qualified healthcare professional before using remedies, supplements, or therapies, especially when pregnant, nursing, taking medication, managing a medical condition, or treating a child.
We update content when better sources, clearer safety guidance, corrected translations, or new research make an article more accurate. Each article shows its publication and review information near the author note.
