4. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ali ibn Hassan from Musa ibn Bakr who has said the following
“I once heard abu al-Hassan (a.s.), saying, ‘Meat grows meat, but if one sends a morsel of shahm (fat) inside it expels the same amount of illness out.’”
عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حَسَّانَ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ بَكْرٍ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ اللَّحْمُ يُنْبِتُ اللَّحْمَ وَ مَنْ أَدْخَلَ فِي جَوْفِهِ لُقْمَةَ شَحْمٍ أَخْرَجَتْ مِثْلَهَا مِنَ الدَّاءِ .
