سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ دَوَاءٍ عُجِنَ بِالْخَمْرِ فَقَالَ لَا وَ اللَّهِ مَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَنْظُرَ إِلَيْهِ فَكَيْفَ أَتَدَاوَى بِهِ إِنَّهُ بِمَنْزِلَةِ شَحْمِ الْخِنْزِيرِ أَوْ لَحْمِ الْخِنْزِيرِ وَ إِنَّ أُنَاساً لَيَتَدَاوَوْنَ بِهِ .


Translation

Abu Ali Al Ashary, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Jabbar, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Ibn Muskan, from Al Halby who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about a medicine kneaded with the wine. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘No, by Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! I<sup>asws</sup> do not (even) like looking at it, so how can I<sup>asws</sup> cure by it. It is as the status of the fat of the swine or flesh of the swine, and the people are curing themselves with it’.
