and recommended others to use it, because he believed that it was beneficial for the eyes, based on the following saying by him:
"One of the best kinds of kohl that you use is Ithmid (antimony).
It brightens the vision, and makes the hair (eye-lashes) grow."
And he
"used to apply kohl to his right eye three times
and to his left eye twice."
It is used by many Muslim men today...
during Ramadan, as a sign of devotion...
although the practice is not universally agreed upon...
as being based on authentic sources.
