24. Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Bandar has narrated from Ibrahim ibn Ishaq from Yusuf ibn al-Sukht in a marfu‘ manner has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘You must not lean in a bathhouse; it melts the fat of kidneys. You must not comb in it; it thins out the hairs, do not wash your head with clay; it destroys self-esteem, do not rub (your feet) with pottery; it may cause leprosy and do not wipe your face with loincloths; it destroys the beauty of the face.’”
علي بن محمد بن بندار، عن إبراهيم بن إسحاق، عن يوسف بن السخت رفعه قال
قال أبوعبدالله عليه السلام: لا تتك في الحمام فإنه يذيب شحم الكليتين، ولا تسرح في الحمام فإنه يرقق الشعر، ولا تغسل رأسك بالطين فإنه يذهب بالغيرة، ولا تتدلك بالخزف فإنه يورث البرص، ولا تمسح وجهك بالازار فإنه يذهب بماء الوجه.
