وَ قَالَ (عليه السلام): الْعَيْنُ حَقٌّ وَ الرُّقَي حَقٌّ وَ السِّحْرُ حَقٌّ وَ الْفَأْلُ حَقٌّ وَ الطِّيَرَةُ لَيْسَتْ بِحَقٍّ وَ الْعَدْوَي لَيْسَتْ بِحَقٍّ وَ الطِّيبُ نُشْرَةٌ وَ الْعَسَلُ نُشْرَةٌ وَ الرُّكُوبُ نُشْرَةٌ وَ النَّظَرُ إِلَي الْخُضْرَةِ نُشْرَةٌ.

Amir al-Mu'minin, peace be upon him, said: Evil effect of sight is right charm is right; sorcery is right, and fa'l (auguring good) is right, while tiyarah (auguring evil) is not right, and apreading of a disease from one to the other is not right. Scent gives pleasure, honey gives pleasure, riding gives pleasure and lookint at greenery gives pleasure.
