Al-Jawars
Al-Kāfi|Volume 6|Book 5|Chapter 96
عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ نُوحٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَنْ أَكَلَ مَعَ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الْأَوَّلِ ( عليه السلام ) هَرِيسَةً بِالْجَاوَرْسِ وَ قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّهُ طَعَامٌ لَيْسَ فِيهِ ثِقَلٌ وَ لَا لَهُ غَائِلَةٌ وَ إِنَّهُ أَعْجَبَنِي فَأَمَرْتُ أَنْ يُتَّخَذَ لِي وَ هُوَ بِاللَّبَنِ أَنْفَعُ وَ أَلْيَنُ فِي الْمَعِدَةِ .
1. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ayyub ibn Nuh who has said the following: “I once ate Harisah (mashed meat and grains) with al-Jawars with abu ‘ Abd Allah عليه السلام, and he (the Imam) said, ‘It is a kind of food which is not heavy or troublesome. I like it so I ordered to use it with my food, however, with milk it is more beneficial and soft on stomach.”’

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حَسَّانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ كَثِيرٍ قَالَ مَرِضْتُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَانْطَلَقَ بَطْنِي فَوَصَفَ لِي أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) سَوِيقَ الْجَاوَرْسِ وَ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ آخُذَ سَوِيقَ الْجَاوَرْسِ وَ أَشْرَبَهُ بِمَاءِ الْكَمُّونِ فَفَعَلْتُ فَأَمْسَكَ بَطْنِي وَ عُوفِيتُ .
2. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from certain persons of our people from Ali ibn Hassan from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Kathir who has said the following: “I once became ill in al-Madinah because of diarrhea and abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, described for me how to prepare a sawiq (fried flour) of al-Jawars and commanded me to use sawiq of al- Jawars and drink it with water of al-Kamun (cumin). I followed the instruction and the diarrhea stopped.’”
