The Benefits of Using Ithmid

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) advised the use of Ithmid (antimony) as a form of kohl, which can brighten vision and make eyelashes grow.

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas that: The Messenger of Allah SAW said: "One of the best kinds of kohl that you use is Ithmid (antimony); it brightens the vision and makes the hair (eye-lashes) grow".
