وَ قَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ اَلنَّوْفَلِيُّ لِأَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: إِنِّي أَفْطَرْتُ يَوْمَ اَلْفِطْرِ عَلَى طِينِ اَلْقَبْرِ وَ تَمْرٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ «جَمَعْتَ بَيْنَ بَرَكَةٍ وَ سُنَّةٍ.
Ali ibn Muhammad Al-Nawfali said to Imam Abu Al-Hasan عليه السلام: "I broke my fast on the Day of Eid al-Fitr with the clay of the grave (Turbah) and dates." Imam عليه السلام replied: "You have combined blessing and tradition (sunnah)."
