قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) شَيْئَانِ صَالِحَانِ لَمْ يَدْخُلَا جَوْفَ وَاحِدٍ قَطُّ فَاسِداً إِلَّا أَصْلَحَاهُ وَ شَيْئَانِ فَاسِدَانِ لَمْ يَدْخُلَا جَوْفاً قَطُّ صَالِحاً إِلَّا أَفْسَدَاهُ فَالصَّالِحَانِ الرُّمَّانُ وَ الْمَاءُ الْفَاتِرُ وَ الْفَاسِدَانِ الْجُبُنُّ وَ الْقَدِيدُ .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from one of his companions, raising it, said, ‘Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Two things are corrective, either of which does not enter the inside at all as spoilt except that it corrects it, and two things are both spoilers, they do not enter inside at all as correct, except that they spoil it. The two correctives are the pomegranate and the luke-warm water, and the two spoilers are the cheese and the Jerk (dried meat)’.
