“I once was with abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), when fresh dates were brought. He (the Imam) began to eat, drink water and gave to me the bowl of water and I disliked to decline.

I then said, ‘I experience increased phlegm, and I complained about it before Ahran, the physician of al-Hajjaj and he asked me, “Do you have palm trees in the garden?” I replied, “Yes, there are.” He asked me to name them and I named until I mentioned al- Hirun (a certain tree) and he said, “Eat seven dates thereof when going to bed and do not drink water.” I followed his instruction and I did not have any moisture in my mouth to spit. I complained before him and he said drink a small amount of water and hold back from drinking more until your condition is balanced.’ Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), said, ‘I without water do not even mind if I did not taste it.’”

كُنْتُ مَعَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) فَأُتِيَ بِرُطَبٍ فَجَعَلَ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ وَ يَشْرَبُ الْمَاءَ وَ يُنَاوِلُنِي الْإِنَاءَ فَأَكْرَهُ أَنْ أَرُدَّهُ فَأَشْرَبُ حَتَّى فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ مِرَاراً قَالَ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي كُنْتُ صَاحِبَ بَلْغَمٍ فَشَكَوْتُ إِلَى أَهْرَنَ طَبِيبِ الْحَجَّاجِ فَقَالَ لِي أَ لَكَ نَخْلٌ فِي بُسْتَانٍ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فِيهِ نَخْلٌ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ لِي عُدَّ عَلَيَّ مَا فِيهِفَعَدَدْتُ حَتَّى بَلَغْتُ الْهِيرُونَ فَقَالَ لِي كُلْ مِنْهُ سَبْعَ تَمَرَاتٍ حِينَ تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَنَامَ وَ لَا تَشْرَبِ الْمَاءَ فَفَعَلْتُ وَ كُنْتُ أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَبْصُقَ فَلَا أَقْدِرُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ فَشَكَوْتُ إِلَيْهِ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لِي اشْرَبِ الْمَاءَ قَلِيلًا وَ أَمْسِكْ حَتَّى يَعْتَدِلَ طَبْعُكَ فَفَعَلْتُ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) أَمَّا أَنَا فَلَوْ لَا الْمَاءُ مَا بَالَيْتُ أَلَّا أَذُوقَهُ .

عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ الدِّهْقَانِ عَنْ دُرُسْتَ بْنِ أَبِي مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ
مَنْ أَكَلَ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ سَبْعَ تَمَرَاتٍ عَجْوَةٍ عَلَى الرِّيقِ مِنْ تَمْرِ الْعَالِيَةِ لَمْ يَضُرَّهُ سَمٌّ وَ لَا سِحْرٌ وَ لَا شَيْطَانٌ .
