Buduh or Baduh

One medieval text, The Red Sulfur by Ibn Arabi, talks about how to use body fluid with name Baduh to engender love in another in poem. The poem goes like this:
If you seek love from a friend, after taking water into your mouth, repeat Buduh seven times, then return the water from your mouth to the bottle; You will get love.
If you do this for part of the food, aroma, or water, and, after taking it into your mouth, You recite likewise then spit after you finish, and give it to the one from whom you have sought love; His love is aroused toward you, for you give the beloved what appeals to his heart.


Allahu Akbar! (x3) Baduh! (x3) You bring triumph, benefits, and goodness from all regions and directions. Employ to me the hearts of all creatures and dispatch to me the blessings from every thing sealed and open. I swear on You, by You and by the most praised Mohammed who has the victory and triumph and is supported by the angels and spirit. Hurry (x3) Now (x3) This Hour (x3) with proficiency, joyfulness, and success, by the mystery of Baduh Batad Zahej Wah, by the mystery of Baduh Ajhazat, and by the mystery of Baduh Abjad Hawaz Hut, employ to me Your blessings and the grandeur of Your majesty for You are upon all things capable.
