Question

In all organs of the human body, what is more barid after Izaam (bones):

• A. Asaab (Nerves)
• B. Ribat
• C. Kurri / Ghuzruf
• D. Baal

Hint:

Remember — in Unani anatomy, cartilage (Ghuzruf) is next in coldness after bones (Izaam).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

In Unani medicine, Izaam (bones) are considered the coldest (barid) structures in the body due to their hard and dense nature.
After bones, the next most barid structures are the Kurri or Ghuzruf (cartilage).
Cartilage is tough but flexible tissue found in joints, ribs, nose, and ear, and shares similar cold and moist qualities with bones.
Asaab (nerves) are linked with warm and dry qualities because they conduct impulses.
Ribat refers to ligaments and connective bands which are not as barid as cartilage.
Baal (hair) is generally considered dry and not associated with significant barid qualities.
Therefore, after Izaam, Kurri / Ghuzruf are the most barid structures.
