To maximize the benefits of Hijama therapy, it's essential to follow the recommended Sunnah dates for cupping. The optimal days for performing this therapy are the 17th, 19th, and 21st of the Lunar Calendar. These specific dates hold significant importance in Islam, and combining them with Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday is considered most beneficial for Hijama.

 

Historically, religious scholars identified these days as ideal for Hijama many years ago, and it is believed that wet cupping should be performed on these Islamic dates.

​

Medical experts advise that Hijama should be conducted on an empty stomach, as it is believed to be a blessing for both the mind and body. Additionally, participants may experience improved memory and cognitive function through cupping therapy.

Experts particularly recommend Thursday as the best day to receive the blessings of God while undergoing Hijama. It is advised to avoid Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays for this treatment, though Monday and Tuesday are also suitable options.

 

Furthermore, spring and summer are ideal seasons for cupping therapy, as the warmer weather enhances its effectiveness for both the body and mind.
