Do you know that more than 80% of our food comes

from bees? I will be exploring and investigating the

importance of bees, and why they are mentioned in The

Quran and The Sunnah of Prophet Muhammed (PBUH).

In grade 6, no one (including me) knew that they were

mentioned in the Quran because Allah (SWT) wants us to

act like bees, and observe their ways of living in a society. I

wanted to find out more about why these creatures are so

important to my faith.

Fun Facts:

Did you know that...

The honey bee is the only insect that

produces food eaten by man.

A honey bee can fly for up to six miles, and

as fast as 15 miles per hour, therefore, it

would have to fly around 90,000 miles -three

times around the globe – to make one pound

of honey.

It takes one ounce of honey to fuel a bee’s

flight around the world.

Honey is 80% sugars and 20% water.

Honey bees must consume about 17-20 pounds

of honey to be able to biochemically produce

each pound of beeswax.
