The word is still sharia. Sharia is based on the Quran, which was obviously all revealed in Muhammad's lifetime, and the hadiths, which are stories about what the Prophet did. Either way, all of the sources for sharia law even as it is understood today were in place at the time of the Prophet's death and were available for use and were used for the purpose of making legal decisions from the Caliphate of Abu Bakr on.

Were ancient Muslims healthy?

There is no such thing as an ancient Muslim since Islam comes into existence in the Medieval era. When compared to contemporaneous Europeans, Muslims were relatively healthy, having preserved the Greek works of physicians like Galen. Additionally, Muslims made several advancements in medicine during the Caliphate period. However, health across the world was abysmal relative to today's standards with few people living beyond 45 years of age and many people succumbing to infections and diseases that are easily treatable today.
