“Allah’s Messenger ﷺ used to color the edges of his eyelids with antimony before going to sleep, three times in each eye. Yazid ibn Harun also said in his tradition: “The Prophet ﷺ had a kohl jar from which he used to apply kohl to his eyelashes before going to sleep, three times in each eye.”

Notes

• وَقَالَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ فِي حَدِيثِهِ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَتْ لَهُ مُكْحُلَةٌ يَكْتَحِلُ مِنْهَا عِنْدَ النَّوْمِ ثَلاثًا فِي كُلِّ عَيْنٍ
