2048. Ibn 'Abbās narrated: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Indeed the best of what you treat with is As-Sa'ūt, Al-Ladūd, cupping and laxatives. And the best of what you use for Kuhl is Ithmid,[1] for it clears the vision and grows the hair (eye-lashes).” And he said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ had a Kuhl holder with which he would apply Kuhl before sleeping, three in each eye.” (Da'if) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharīb, and it is a narration of 'Abbās bin Manšūr.
٢٠٤٨ - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ خَيْرَ مَا تَدَاوَيْتُمْ بِهِ اللَّدُودُ» وَالسَّعُوطُ وَالْحِجَامَةُ وَالْمَشِيُّ، وَخَيْرُ مَا اكْتَحَلْتُمْ بِهِ الْإِثْمِدُ؛ فَإِنَّهُ يَجْلُو الْبَصَرَ وَيُنْبِتُ الشَّعَرَ، وَكَانَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُكْحُلَةٌ يَكْتَحِلُ بِهَا عِنْدَ النَّوْمِ ثَلَاثًا فِي كُلِّ عَيْنٍ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ، لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ عَبَّادِ بْنِ مَنْصُورٍ.
