What he (MGB) taught is as follows.Blood-letting improves physical health and strengthens the intellect.Putting perfume on the moustache is one of the traditions of the Prophet (MGB) and of the Honorable Recorders (Kiraman Katibin) .Brushing the teeth is one of the things that pleases the Honorable the Exalted God. It is also one of the traditions of God’s Prophet (MGB). It cleans the mouth.Soap makes the cuticle soft, increases intelligence, facilitates the flow of water in the body, takes away dryness of the skin and improves the color of the face.Washing the head takes away dirtiness and cleans dust and rubbish.Gargling with water and pulling water up into the nose is a tradition. It cleans both the mouth and the nose.Drawing snuff into the nose clears up the head, cleans the body and alleviates any headaches.Applying depilatory cream or powder brings happiness and cleans the body.Keeping the shoes in proper order helps maintain the body and helps with cleanliness and prayer.Cutting the nails prevents major ailments, increases one’s sustenance and expedites the arrival of one’s share of daily bread.Shaving the underarm fights bad odor. It is a part of cleanliness and a custom which the clean Prophet (MGB) has ordered.Washing the hands before and after every meal causes an increase in one’s share of daily bread. It also prevents one’s clothes from getting oily and improves one’s sight.Staying up at night (to worship God) would improve your health, cause the pleasure of the Honorable the Exalted Lord, is a means of seeking His Mercy, and is a way of following behavior of the Prophets.Eating an apple is good for the stomach.Chewing gum would strengthen the teeth, eliminate phlegm and remove bad odor of the mouth.It is much better to sit in the mosque after dawn until sunrise than to go around and work to earn a living.Eating quinces would strengthen a weak heart, clean the stomach, improve spiritual strength, convert a scared person to a brave one, and result in the production of a better child.Eating twenty-one raisins with breakfast every morning would cure all the pains except death.

11. The narrator asked Imam Muhammad Baqir (a.s.), “Allah says, ‘Surely We revealed it (Quran) on a blessed night’,so which is that blessed night?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “It is the night of Qadr (power), which is one of the last ten nights of the month of Ramadan. The Holy Quran was revealed in the night of Qadr only. Allah, the Mighty and Sublime says, ‘The fate of everything would be decided by the Divine order in this night’. All the good and bad, obedience and disobedience, birth and death, earnings etc. are decided by the Will of Allah for the whole year in this night only.” The narrator asked, “What is the meaning of verse: ‘The grand night is better than a thousand months’?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “The reward of good deeds performed in this night is better than that of doing the same for a thousand months without the night of Qadr.

They (as) said: "The Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) used to pray the last night prayer ('Isha) and then return to his home. Later in the night, he would come out to the mosque and pray. On the first night of Month of Ramadan, he came out to pray as he usually did, and the people lined up behind him. He fled from them to his house and left them. This happened for three nights. On the third day, He (peace be upon him and his family) ascended the pulpit, praised Allah (swt), and said: 'O people, praying at night during Ramadan in congregation is an innovation, and so is the Duha prayer (forenoon prayer). Do not gather at night during Month of Ramadan for night prayers, nor offer the Duha prayer, for these are acts of disobedience. Indeed, every innovation leads to misguidance, and every misguidance leads to the fire.' Then the Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) descended while saying: 'A little in adherence to the Sunnah is better than much in innovation.'"
