مَرِضْتُ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ لَحْمِي فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى الرِّضَا ( صلوات الله عليه ) فَقَالَ أَ يَسُرُّكَ أَنْ يَعُودَ إِلَيْكَ لَحْمُكَ قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ الْزَمِ الْحَمَّامَ غِبّاً فَإِنَّهُ يَعُودُ إِلَيْكَ لَحْمُكَ وَ إِيَّاكَ أَنْ تُدْمِنَهُ فَإِنَّ إِدْمَانَهُ يُورِثُ السِّلَّ .


Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Abdullah Bin Muhammad Al Hajjal, from Suleyman Al Ja’fary who said, ‘I was sick to the extent that my flesh went away. So I went over to Al-Reza<sup>asws</sup>, so he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Would you be joyful if I<sup>asws</sup> were to return your flesh to you?’ I said, ‘Yes’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Necessitate the bathing intermittently so it would return back to you your flesh, and beware of being habitual of it, for being habitual in it inherits the tuberculosis’.
