5. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Ali b. Majluwayh from Muhammad b. Abi al-Qasim from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah from Mansur b. al-Abbas from Sa’eed b. Janah from Sulayman b. Ja’far al-Ja’fari from Abi al-Hassan (a.s.) who said
“Black dye is the cause of beauty for women and a cause of defeat of enemies.”
حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِیِّ بْنِ مَاجِیلَوَیْهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِی الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ الْعَبَّاسِ عَنْ سَعِیدِ بْنِ جَنَاحٍ عَنْ سُلَیْمَانَ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الْجَعْفَرِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی الْحَسَنِ ع قَالَ
الْخِضَابُ بِالسَّوَادِ زِینَهٌ لِلنِّسَاءِ مَکْبَتَهٌ لِلْعَدُوِّ.
