1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Ziyad al-Qandiy who has said the following
“Abu al-Hassan, al-Awwal (a.s.), has said that the medicine of ’Amir al-Mu’minin was wild thyme, ’Amir al-Mu’minin would say, Thyme becomes fuzz and fluff for the stomach like that of velvet.’”
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ زِيَادٍ الْقَنْدِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الْأَوَّلِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ
كَانَ دَوَاءُ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) السَّعْتَرَ وَ كَانَ يَقُولُ إِنَّهُ يَصِيرُ لِلْمَعِدَةِ خَمْلًا كَخَمْلِ الْقَطِيفَةِ .

2. It is narrated from the narrator of the previous Hadith from Musa ibn al-Hassan from Ali ibn Sulayman from certain ones of al-Wasit who has said the following
“I once complained before abu al-Hassan (a.s.), about rutubah (acidity) and he (the Imam) commanded me to eat thyme complete and uncrushed.”
عَنْهُ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ بَعْضِ الْوَاسِطِيِّينَ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) أَنَّهُ
شَكَا إِلَيْهِ رُطُوبَةً فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَسْتَفَّ السَّعْتَرَ عَلَى الرِّيقِ .
