4. It is narrated from the narrator of the previous Hadith from Ahmad ibn ‘Ubdus ibn Ibrahim who has said the following
“I once saw abu Ja‘far (a.s.), coming out of the bathhouse and he looked like a flower from his top to his toes because of applying henna.’”
عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عُبْدُوسِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ
رَأَيْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) وَ قَدْ خَرَجَ مِنَ الْحَمَّامِ وَ هُوَ مِنْ قَرْنِهِ إِلَى قَدَمِهِ مِثْلُ الْوَرْدَةِ مِنْ أَثَرِ الْحِنَّاءِ .
