الحاوي في الطب (Liber Continens — Part 3)

There is no goodness for the rest of them, neither in their body nor in their stomach, except that they are at the limit of travel, in most cases, because their stomach does not process the water well. Weakness may overshadow it due to cold dyscrasia, dryness, and thirst. The story in its treatment is by moisturizing his body and dissolving his body, and it weakens the malignant whole which is not accompanied by any matter? in the stripping of the bath...

If one opposes the goal, the situation indicates who is under a fearful condition?: movement, weakness, and the hastening of his death? before the time in which his body dries up. This is because the travel indicates his weakness and pain upon movement, and the ailment at the time when he needs to be in the hammam bath in, because the hammam is hoped to provide strength, coldness, and success if he stays in the water for a long time. The ground should be near the door of the outer bath so that the road does not rise upon him when he leaves. The long-travel bath is for the hot bath, as there is no need for it; rather, the maysakh a type of moderate bath or water and its likes among the keepers is sufficient. The water of the abzan bathtub/hip-bath should be at the utmost moderation. This is because water of excessive heat is bad for weak bodies in that it heats their organs. As for water of excessive cold, it gathers the exterior of the body, constricts its pores, pours it, grips it, and traps the wastes within it. It does not expand the pores, open them, or relax them unless its heat is rising. Only the water of extreme moderation does that, because it follows the rigidity that frees the nature and invites it to expand, release, and dissipate for the sake of the comfort that the spirit commands over it.
