L'Huile d'Encens Franckincense

2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ibn abu ‘Umayr from Muhammad ibn abu Hamzah from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar and ibn abu ‘Umayr from ‘Umar ibn ‘Udhaynah who has said the following: “Once, a man complained before abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, about cracks in his hands and feet. He (the Imam) said, ‘Take a piece of cotton, place frankincense oil in it and apply it in your belly button.’ Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar has said that I said, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, frankincense oil in cotton, then in his belly button?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘O Ishaq, to pour frankincense oil in your belly button it is a great task.’ Ibn ‘Udhaynah has said, ‘Thereafter I met the man. He informed me that he followed the instruction only once and his problems went away.’”

Un homme se plaignit à l'Imam Sadiq (que la paix soit sur lui) de fissures dans ses mains et ses pieds. L'Imam lui conseilla de mettre du beurre dans une pièce de coton et de la placer dans sa poche. L'homme suivit ce conseil et ses problèmes disparurent après l'avoir fait une seule fois.
