Acts17apologetics try folk medicine; Prophet instructs drinking camel urine?

In answer to the video "Islamicize Me Day 8: Urine Luck!"

This issue is often made into a mountain by the enemies of Islam. The prophet recommended the ingestion of camel's urine that had grazed in particular areas that thus rendered it useful to humans, in combination with milk, not separately. That prescription was a one off incident to a group of people that consequently were cured. It was not something recommended to everyone or for general consumption. It was meant as a treatment and we have no other instances of the prophet using it or telling others to do so. It is well known, as a side note, that camel urine has strong antibiotic properties. Due to this, the critics of Islam have now switched to saying that isolating the beneficial component makes the remedy risk free, as compared to taking the cure in its raw form ie the urine. Yet a modern drug, even though having the component of interest in concentration is still harmful to an extent and has a long list of side effects. Take chemotherapy for example. Ancient people cured diseases using inherited knowledge and raw materials provided by nature. Chemical extraction and synthetic reproduction didn't exist. These ancient remedies, like our modern drugs werent perfect but did the specific job they were known to be useful for, as is clearly the case in this hadith.

And by the way As is explicit in the Quran, the divine protection of the carriers of the revelation pertains strictly to the revelation itself. But in everyday affairs, the messengers, who are still humans endowed with freewill and thus the potential, if not to sin due to their heightened level of spiritual awareness, to make mistakes, they are left to their own devices in their everyday lives to fight off the assaults of evil forces. No prophet was in a constant state of communication with the divine realm.

The hadith and Quran itself speak of long periods where revelation had stopped, and the subsequent taunting of his enemies on the issue, the questions of his followers and his anxious anticipation.
