Jami at-Tirmidhi 2048 (Book 28, Hadith 13) #27681
Medical Treatments Advised by the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w)

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) advised the use of certain treatments and substances for medical purposes, such as sa'ut, ladud, cupping and laxatives for treatment and ithmid for kohl to clear vision and grow eyelashes.

Ibn 'Abbas narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "Indeed the best of what you treat is As-Sa'ut, Al-Ladud, cupping and laxatives'. And the best of what you use for Kuhl is Ithmid, for it clears the vision and grows the hair (eye-lashes)". And he said:" The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) had a Kuhl holder with which he would apply Kuhl before sleeping three in each eye".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، قال حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، قال حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ إِنَّ خَيْرَ مَا تَدَاوَيْتُمْ بِهِ اللَّدُودُ وَالسَّعُوطُ وَالْحِجَامَةُ وَالْمَشِيُّ وَخَيْرُ مَا اكْتَحَلْتُمْ بِهِ الإِثْمِدُ فَإِنَّهُ يَجْلُو الْبَصَرَ وَيُنْبِتُ الشَّعْرَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَكَانَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ مُكْحُلَةٌ يَكْتَحِلُ بِهَا عِنْدَ النَّوْمِ ثَلاَثًا فِي كُلِّ عَيْنٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ وَهُوَ حَدِيثُ عَبَّادِ بْنِ مَنْصُورٍ
