Hadith supports that one of the wings of housefly has healing power

Reader comment on item: Conspiracy Theories Keep Polio Alive
in response to reader comment: Western medicine is haram.

Submitted by zuma (United States), Jul 14, 2017 at 01:15

Book #54, hadith #537, Sahih Bukhar, "Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said "If a house fly falls in the drink of anyone of you, he should dip it (in the drink), for one of its wings has a disease and the other has the cure for the disease."

The past and recent scientific research does not come to the conclusion a side of the wings of a housefly could cause disease and another side could heal the disease.
