Coffee is regarded by Muslims as the gift of Allah.

In the eighth century AD, there was a magical "black water" called "Qahwa" in the Arabian Peninsula, which was said to restore physical strength, exuberant spirit, and no intention.

The tenth century Muslim philosopher and Iranian doctor Avicina Ibn Sina,980-1037 recorded a plant from Yemen called Bunchum, which is said to be something like coffee.

As early as the sixth century AD, coffee spread from Africa to Ethiopia (ancient Abyssinia) to the Arabian Peninsula. at first, only a few Arab monks knew its magical use and were regarded by Muslims as the gift of Allah.

Abu Dar, a Muslim, in 1578. In Ambudar Kadry's book the Origin of Coffee, the story of the discovery of magical red fruit by the Arab doctor Omar, whose hometown is in Mocca in Yemen in the Arabian Peninsula, is first recorded.

According to historical records, the tribes of Ethiopia and Kenya in East Africa invaded the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula in the fifth century AD and occupied Yemen for a century before being driven out by the Persians, which is now Iran. At that time, the ancestors of East Africa had already started to drink drinks made from red fruits of "Kaffa" mixed with green leaves, and these African soldiers on expeditions carried coffee balls wrapped in animal fat with them to refresh themselves and increase their combat effectiveness.

Later, with the rise of the Arab world, the Ottoman Turkish Empire spanned Europe, Asia and Africa. The Turks invaded Europe and passed on this magical "black water" and red fruit to the Europeans.
