Sahih Muslim 1204b (Book 15, Hadith 98) #10033
The Healing Power of Aloes

SUMMARY: Aban b. 'Uthman reported on the authority of 'Uthman b. Affan that the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) used aloes to treat swollen eyes instead of antimony.

Nubaih b Wahb reported that the eyes of Umar b. Ubayd Allah b. Ma'mar were swollen, and he decided to use antimony. Aban b. 'Uthman forbade him to do so and commanded him to apply aloes on them, and reported on the authority of 'Uthman b. Affan that the Messenger of Allah had done that.
وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْحَنْظَلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ بْنُ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنِي نُبَيْهُ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَعْمَرٍ، رَمِدَتْ عَيْنُهُ فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَكْحُلَهَا، فَنَهَاهُ أَبَانُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ وَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يُضَمِّدَهَا بِالصَّبِرِ وَحَدَّثَ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ أَنَّهُ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ
