قَالَ لِي أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) الثَّوْبُ النَّقِيُّ يَكْبِتُ الْعَدُوَّ وَ الدُّهْنُ يَذْهَبُ بِالْبُؤْسِ وَ الْمَشْطُ لِلرَّأْسِ يَذْهَبُ بِالْوَبَاءِ قَالَ قُلْتُ وَ مَا الْوَبَاءُ قَالَ الْحُمَّى وَ الْمَشْطُ لِلِّحْيَةِ يَشُدُّ الْأَضْرَاسَ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Abdullah Bin Jundab, from Sufyan Bin Al Samt who said, ‘Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said to me: ‘The clean clothes suppress the enemy, and the oiling removes the anguish, and the combing for the head removes <span class="iTxt">Al-Waba</span> (illness)’. I said, ‘And what is <span class="iTxt">Al-Waba</span>?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The fever. And combing the beard strengthens the teeth’.
