“Abu al-Hassan, al-Awwal (a.s.), has said that the medicine of ’Amir al-Mu’minin was wild thyme, ’Amir al-Mu’minin would say, Thyme becomes fuzz and fluff for the stomach like that of velvet.’”
أَنَّهُ شَكَا إِلَيْهِ رُطُوبَةً فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَسْتَفَّ السَّعْتَرَ عَلَى الرِّيقِ[3].
“I once complained before abu al-Hassan (a.s.), about rutubah (acidity) and he (the Imam) commanded me to eat thyme complete and uncrushed.”

From him, from the one who reported it, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah saww forbade from picking teeth with the pomegranate (stem) and the myrtle (leaf), and the reeds, and said: ‘These stir the vein of the ulcers’.

“I once asked abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), about the meat that remains between the teeth. He (the Imam) said, ’What is between the front teeth you can eat; but what is between the back teeth you must throw it away.’”
أَمَّا مَا يَكُونُ عَلَى اللِّثَةِ فَكُلْهُ وَ ازْدَرِدْهُ[2] وَ مَا كَانَ بَيْنَ الْأَسْنَانِ فَارْمِ بِهِ.
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘What is in gingival (front gums) swallow it and what is between the other teeth throw it away.’”

“Once, abu al-Hassan (a.s.), had lunch with me. When lunch was complete, toothpicks were brought and I asked, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, what are the limits of toothpicks?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘O Fadl, whatever remains in your mouth when you turn your tongue on it you can eat it; but wh

“I once said to abu al-Hassan (a.s.), ‘I eat saltwort.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Abu al-Hassan (a.s.), when washing his hands and mouth (with saltwort) would keep his lips closed. There is a quality in it, which is disliked. It can cause tuberculoses, it takes away the water of the back and weakens the knees.’ I then asked

6. It is narrated from the narrator of the previous Hadith from ibn Mahbub from abu Wallad who has said the following: “I once saw abu al-Hassan sitting in al-Hijr (near al-Ka‘bah) along with a group of his family members and I heard him saying, ‘I had a toothache so I took cyperus and rubbed with it my teeth, it benef

“’Amir al-Mu’minin (a.s.), has said, ‘Water is the master of drinks in this world and in the next world.’” A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah al-Barqiy from Muhammad ibn Ali from ‘Isa ibn ‘Abd Allah through the chain of his narrators has narrated a similar Hadith.
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص سَيِّدُ شَرَابِ الْجَنَّةِ الْمَاءُ.
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said, ‘The master of the drink in paradise is water.’”
قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع الْمَاءُ سَيِّدُ الشَّرَابِ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ.
“’Amir al-Mu’minin (a.s.), has said, ‘Water is the master of drinks in this world and in the next world.’”
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَصُّوا الْمَاءَ مَصّاً وَ لَا تَعُبُّوهُ عَبّاً فَإِنَّهُ يُوجَدُ مِنْهُ الْكُبَادُ[3].
’Drink water in a sipping manner but do not gulp and pour it down at once; it may cause liver illness.”’
دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الْمَاضِي ع فَنَهَيْتُهُ عَنْ شُرْبِ الْمَاءِ فَقَالَ ع وَ مَا بَأْسٌ بِالْمَاءِ وَ هُوَ يُدِيرُ الطَّعَامَ فِي الْمَعِدَةِ وَ يُسَكِّنُ الْغَضَبَ وَ يَزِيدُ فِي اللُّبِّ وَ يُطْفِئُ الْمِرَارَ.
“I once visited abu al-Hassan, al-Madiy, Alayhi al-Salam, and I prohibited him from drinking water. He (the Imam) said, ‘What is wrong with water when it turns food in the stomach, calms down the anger, increases marrows (learning ability) and removes bitterness?”’
كُنْتُ عِنْدَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فَدَعَا بِتَمْرٍ فَأَكَلَ وَ أَقْبَلَ يَشْرَبُ عَلَيْهِ الْمَاءَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ لَوْ أَمْسَكْتَ عَنِ الْمَاءِ فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا آكُلُ التَّمْرَ لِأَسْتَطِيبَ عَلَيْهِ الْمَاءَ.
“I once was with abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), and he asked for dates which he ate and then he kept drinking water. I then said, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, I wish you refrain from drinking water.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘I eat dates only to make water taste more delicious.’”
قَالَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ ع عَجَباً لِمَنْ أَكَلَ مِثْلَ ذَا وَ أَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ وَ لَمْ يَشْرَبْ عَلَيْهِ الْمَاءَ كَيْفَ لَا تَنْشَقُّ مَعِدَتُهُ.
“Abu al-Hassan (a.s.), once said, ‘I wonder about the one who eats ‘this much,’ making a hand gesture, ‘and does not drink any water on it, how is it that his stomach does not burst.’”
قَالَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ ع إِنَّ شُرْبَ الْمَاءِ الْبَارِدِ أَكْثَرُ تَلَذُّذاً.
“Abu al-Hassan (a.s.), has said, ‘Drinking cold water is more delicious.’”

“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), when giving advice to a man said, ‘Reduce drinking water; it may stretch all illness and refrain from taking medicine as long as your body can take the pain.’”
لَا بَأْسَ بِكَثْرَةِ شُرْبِ الْمَاءِ عَلَى الطَّعَامِ وَ لَا تُكْثِرْ مِنْهُ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ وَ قَالَ أَ رَأَيْتَ لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَكَلَ مِثْلَ ذَا وَ جَمَعَ يَدَيْهِ كِلْتَيْهِمَا لَمْ يَضُمَّهُمَا وَ لَمْ يُفَرِّقْهُمَا ثُمَّ لَمْ يَشْرَبْ عَلَيْهِ الْمَاءَ كَانَ يَنْشَقُّ مَعِدَتُهُ.
‘It is not harmful to drink water after food but do not drink water excessively on things other than food.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Consider, the man who eats this much’ — he brought his hands close to each other and did not join them and did not keep them much apart - ‘then he does not drink water, his stomach may burst.
لَا تُكْثِرْ مِنْ شُرْبِ الْمَاءِ فَإِنَّهُ مَادَّةٌ لِكُلِّ دَاءٍ.
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘Do not drink water excessively, it is the substance of every illness.’”
شُرْبُ الْمَاءِ مِنْ قِيَامٍ بِالنَّهَارِ أَقْوَى وَ أَصَحُّ لِلْبَدَنِ.
“Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ’During the day drinking water when standing gives the body more power and good health.’”
شُرْبُ الْمَاءِ مِنْ قِيَامٍ بِالنَّهَارِ يُمْرِئُ الطَّعَامَ وَ شُرْبُ الْمَاءِ مِنْ قِيَامٍ بِاللَّيْلِ يُورِثُ الْمَاءَ الْأَصْفَرَ.
“Abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘During the day drinking water when standing makes the food more pleasant; but drinking water during the night when standing causes al-Safra ’ (yellowness, acidity).”’

‘The Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, when drinking water would say, ‘All praise belongs to Allah, who has given us cool and clear water and not of salty and foul smelling kind, and has not yet questioned us because of our sins.’”

لَا يَنْبَغِي الشُّرْبُ فِي آنِيَةِ الذَّهَبِ وَ لَا الْفِضَّةِ[1].
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘It is not proper to drink water with bowl made of gold or silver.’”
