The Big One

A big, glossy date, soft and plump, tasting of caramel.

Medjool is a big date with a thick, glossy reddish-brown skin and soft, plump flesh. Caramel, with a touch of honey and vanilla. Its name comes from “majhul”, the unknown one. The king of stuffing: split it and fill it with almonds or peanut butter.

From the Sunnah

  • The Prophet (ﷺ) said:

    “There is a tree among the trees which is similar to a Muslim (in goodness), and that is the date palm tree.”

    مِنَ الشَّجَرِ شَجَرَةٌ تَكُونُ مِثْلَ الْمُسْلِمِ، وَهْىَ النَّخْلَةُ
