وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ غِيَاثِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَمِيرِ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:» ثَلاَثٌ يُذْهِبْنَ اَلْبَلْغَمَ وَيَزِدْنَ فِي اَلْحِفْظِ اَلسِّوَاكُ وَ اَلصَّوْمُ وَقِرَاءَةُ اَلْقُرْآنِ«.
And from him, from Muhammad ibn Ali, from Muhammad ibn Yahya, from Ghiyath ibn Ibrahim, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, from his father:
The Commander of the Faithful عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: “Three things remove phlegm and increase memory; the tooth-stick (siwak), fasting, and recitation of the Quran.”
