9-7 (The compiler of the book narrated) that his father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Sa’ed ibn Abdullah and Abdullah ibn Ja’far al-Homayry quoted Harun ibn Muslim, on the authority of Mus’adat ibn Sadaqe al-Rub’ee, on the authority of Ja’far ibn Muhammad as-Sadiq (MGB), on the authority of his father (MGB), on the authority of his forefathers (MGB), on the authority of Ali (MGB) that God’s Prophet (MGB) said, “
What corrupts speech is lying. What corrupts knowledge is forgetting. What corrupts patience is foolishness. What corrupts worshipping is laziness. What corrupts circumstances is boasting. What corrupts bravery is transgression. What corrupts generosity is mentioning it. What corrupts beauty is haughtiness. What corrupts lineage is pride.”

9-8 (The compiler of the book narrated) that his father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn Yahya al-Attar quoted Abu Sa’id al-Adamy, on the authority of Ali ibn al-Zyat, on the authority of Ubaydullah ibn Abdullah, on the authority of someone who linked it up to Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB) that the
Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali (MGB) said, “I was with the Prophet (MGB) when Abdul Qays’s representatives came with a sac full of dates and placed it in front of the Prophet (MGB). Then the Prophet (MGB) asked, ‘Is this charity or a gift?’ They replied, ‘O Prophet of God! It is a gift.’ He (MG) asked them, ‘What kind of dates is it?’ They said, ‘It is Al-Barni dates.’ Then the Prophet (MGB) said, ‘There are nine characteristics in dates. Indeed Gabriel informed me that eating dates has nine benefits: 1. It eliminates pain. 2. It makes your breath smell good. 3. It helps digest food. 4. It improves hearing and vision. 5. It increases sex drive. 6. It strengthens the back. 7. It cuts off the hands of Satan. 8. It brings man closer to God. 9. It takes man farther away from Satan.’”

قال أمير المؤمنين عليه السلام: بينما نحن عند رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله إذ ورد عليه وفد عبدالقيس فسلموا ثم وضعوا بين يديه جلة تمر فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله: أصدقة أم هدية؟ قالوا: بل هدية يارسول الله قال: أي تمراتكم هذه؟ قالوا: البرني فقال عليه السلام: في تمرتكم هذه تسع خصال: إن هذا جبرئيل يخبرني أن فيه تسع خصال: يطيب النكهة، ويطيب المعدة، ويهضم الطعام، ويزيد في السمع والبصر، ويقوي الظهر، ويخبل الشيطان، ويقرب من الله عز وجل، ويباعد من الشيطان
