أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ مُوسَى الْوَرَّاقِ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ دَخَلَ قَوْمٌ عَلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) فَرَأَوْهُ مُخْتَضِباً بِالسَّوَادِ فَسَأَلُوهُ فَقَالَ إِنِّي رَجُلٌ أُحِبُّ النِّسَاءَ وَ أَنَا أَتَصَنَّعُ لَهُنَّ .
3. Ahmad ibn Muhammad narrated from al-Abbas ibn Musa al-Warraq, from Abu al-Hasan عليه السلام, who said: A group of people came to see Abu Ja’far عليه السلام and saw him dyeing his hair black. They asked him about it, and he said: ‘I am a man who loves women, and I adorn myself for them.
