عَنْهُ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ وَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حَسَّانَ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ الْجَعْفَرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ الْحَمَّامُ يَوْمٌ وَ يَوْمٌ لَا يُكْثِرُ اللَّحْمَ وَ إِدْمَانُهُ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ يُذِيبُ شَحْمَ الْكُلْيَتَيْنِ .
2. It is narrated from the narrator of the previous Hadith from Ali ibn al-Hakam from and Ali ibn Hassan from Sulayman ibn al-Ja‘fariy who has said the following: “Abu al-Hassan عليه السلام, has said, ‘Taking a bath one day and the day after does not increase flesh. Continuously taking a bath every day melts the fat of the kidneys.’”
