It was narrated from ‘Abdullah Ibn ‘Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, said: “The best of your Kohl is antimony; it makes the hair grow and makes the vision clear.” (Ibn Majah, Al-Tabarani, Al-Hakim; saheeh)
He said that the Prophet, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, used to apply antimony to his eyes every night before going to sleep, and he would apply it to each eye three times. (Narrated by Ahmad; its isnad includes ‘Abbad Ibn Mansoor, whom they classed as weak)
It was also narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas that the Messenger of Allah, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, said: “Apply antimony to your eyes, for it clears the vision and makes the hair grow.” (Narrated and classed as hasan by Al-Tirmidhi, and Ibn Majah; it was classed as saheeh by Ibn Hibban; saheeh)
Ibn Hajar said, “Antimony is a well-known reddish black rock which is found in the Hejaz and the best of it comes from Isfahan. These Hadiths show that it is Mustahabb to apply antimony to the eyes for both men and women.” Al-Ra’ees Ibn Sina said of antimony, “It protects the health of the eye and takes away the dirt of ulcers.”
Al-‘Allamah Al-Baghdadi said, “Antimony makes the eyelashes grow, beautifies the eyes and makes them more attractive; it should not be used if there is severe inflammation of the eyes.”
Al-Kahhal Ibn Tarkhan said, “It is the best kind of Kohl for the eyes, especially for the elderly and those whose vision is weak, especially if a little musk is added to it.”
Antimony is a metalloid, the symbol for which is Sb. It is found in nature in a free form, but it usually exists in a sulfide, oxide or oxysulfide form. Its sulfide form is the main source of this mineral. It is a brittle metal which breaks easily; it is shiny with white silvery color when it is pure and a gray color when it appears in a compound. When it is broken between the fingers it emits a clear scent. (This information on antimony is quoted from the book of Rewington.)
Antimony exists in organic compounds such as antomalin, fuadin and glucantime, and other metallic compounds such as compounds of antimony and potassium, or antimony and sodium. It has many medicinal properties, acting as an expectorant and an emetic. Some skin creams are also manufactured from it.
It is also effective against a large group of germs, and it destroys a number of parasites such as bilharzia, trypanosoma, and nematodes. It is used in Britain to treat bilharzia.
Dr. Hassan Howaidi confirms that clearing the vision with antimony is effective against many groups of germs; thus it protects the eye and maintains its health, because infectious diseases of the eye are caused by germs, and when the conjunctiva is free from swelling then the vision will be good.
He says: “The fact that it makes the eyelashes grow is proved scientifically because one of the medicinal properties of antimony is its effect on the skin, as it stimulates the roots of the hair and is a factor in hair growth. Hence, compounds of it (compounds of antimony and potassium) are used to treat some cases of ringworm and baldness; it is applied in the form of a cream containing a ratio of 32 percent.”
This benefit of making the hair grow is also beneficial to the eye, because it helps the eyelashes to grow, which protect the eye and increase its beauty.
What a beautiful choice of the Prophet, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him; at the time of the Prophet, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, many types of Kohl were used for that purpose of beautification. As Dr. Mahmoud Nazim Al-Naseemi says, “The Messenger of Allah, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, preferred antimony because it strengthens the roots of the eyelashes and protects the eyelashes, so that they grow longer; thus increasing their ability to protect the eye from the rays of the sun, and screening out dust and dirt. So the vision becomes clearer than when using Kohl that is free of antimony.”
Some people want to criticize the Prophet’s call to use Kohl containing antimony, because of some cases of toxicity affecting some pregnant women as a result of using adulterated Kohl containing toxic lead. This poisoning only occurred as a result of cheating and adulterating antimony with lead, not from the use of antimony in Kohl as recommended by the Prophet, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him.
We call upon Muslim manufacturers of medicines and cosmetics who care about Islam to offer to their Ummah, Kohl of pure antimony, free from any toxic lead content, so that everyone who wants to revive a Sunnah of their Prophet, blessings and peace of Allah be upon him, will be able to apply antimony to their eyes safely.
