Chapter on Eating and Drinking From Gold and Silver Utensils and Other Etiquettes of Eating
وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ حَمَّادٍ عَنِ اَلْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "ثَلاَثَةُ أَنْفَاسٍ فِي اَلشُّرْبِ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ شُرْبٍ بِنَفَسٍ وَاحِدٍ" وَ كَانَ يَكْرَهُ أَنْ يُشَبَّهَ بِالْهِيمِ قُلْتُ وَ مَا اَلْهِيمُ قَالَ "اَلزِّمْلُ". وَ فِي حَدِيثٍ آخَرَ: اَلْإِبِلُ. وَ رُوِيَ: "أَنَّ اَلْهِيمَ اَلنِّيبُ". وَ رُوِيَ: "أَنَّ اَلْهِيمَ مَا "لَمْ يُذْكَرِ اِسْمُ اَللّٰهِ عَلَيْهِ" "
In a narration by Hammad from Al-Halabi, Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام, said: "Drinking in three breaths is better than drinking in one breath." Imam عليه السلام disliked that a person should resemble 'Al-Heem.' I asked: "What is Al-Heem?" Imam عليه السلام replied: "It refers to camels." In another narration, it states: "Al-Heem refers to thirsty camels." And it is also narrated: "Al-Heem refers to those upon whom the name of Allah سبحانه وتعالى has not been mentioned."
