1. It was narrated to me by Ahmad b. Muhammad b. Yahya al-’Attar from his father from Muhammad b. Ahmad from Musa b. Umar from Muhammad b. Sinan from Abi Sa’eed al-Qammat from Umar b. Yazid from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) who said
“Washing head with marsh- mallow (Khatmi) ends headache, diseases and poverty and protects head from dryness.”
حَدَّثَنِی أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ یَحْیَی الْعَطَّارُ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ مُوسَی بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِی سَعِیدٍ الْقَمَّاطِ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ یَزِیدَ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ
غَسْلُ الرَّأْسِ بِالْخِطْمِیِّ أَمَانٌ مِنَ الصُّدَاعِ وَ بَرَاءَهٌ مِنَ الْفَقْرِ وَ طَهُورٌ لِلرَّأْسِ مِنَ الْحَزَازِ.
