4. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah from abu al-Khazraj al-Hassan ibn al-Zabarqan al-Ansariy from al-Fadl ibn ‘Uthman from abu ’Aziz al-Muradiy who is maternal uncle of my mother who has said the following
“I once heard abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), saying, ‘Keep cyperus in your teeth; it gives the mouth pleasant smell and increases one’s ability to go to bed with his wife.’”
عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِي الْخَزْرَجِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ الزِّبْرِقَانِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِي عَزِيزٍ الْمُرَادِيِّ قَالَ
وَ هُوَ خَالُ أُمِّي قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ اتَّخِذُوا فِي أَسْنَانِكُمُ السُّعْدَ فَإِنَّهُ يُطَيِّبُ الْفَمَ وَ يَزِيدُ فِي الْجِمَاعِ .
