سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ كَانَتْ لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ( عليه السلام ) أَشْبِيدَانَةُ رَصَاصٍ مُعَلَّقَةٌ فِيهَا مِسْكٌ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَخْرُجَ وَ لَبِسَ ثِيَابَهُ تَنَاوَلَهَا وَ أَخْرَجَ مِنْهَا فَتَمَسَّحَ بِهِ .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, and Al Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Moala Bin Muhammad, from Al Washa who said, ‘I heard Abu Al-Hassan<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘There used to be for Ali<sup>asws</sup> Bin Al-Husayn<sup>asws</sup> a lead container wherein was musk. So whenever he<sup>asws</sup> wanted to go out and wear his<sup>asws</sup> clothes, he<sup>asws</sup> would take it and extract from it, so he<sup>asws</sup> would apply with it’.
