حَدَّثَنِی الْحُسَیْنُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِیَادٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِیمَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَجَّاجِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُمَرَ الْهَمْدَانِیِّ عَنِ ابْنِ عَطِیَّهَ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِیلَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ: مَنْ سَرَّحَ لِحْیَتَهُ سَبْعِینَ مَرَّهً وَ عَدَّهَا مَرَّهً مَرَّهً لَمْ یَقْرَبْهُ الشَّیْطَانُ أَرْبَعِینَ صَبَاحاً.

Jabir from Abi Abdillah عليه السلام who said who said: “Shaitaan will remain aloof for next forty days from one who combs his beard seventy times.”
