It is narrated from Sayyidah Barirah (may Allah be pleased with her), the freed slave-woman of the Mother of the Believers Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), that she said: "I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) applying ithmid (antimony kohl) while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was fasting."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Ibrahim bin Abi Ablah (may Allah have mercy on him) except Mughirah bin Abi Mughirah (may Allah have mercy on him), and no one from Mughirah except Muhammad bin Mihran (may Allah have mercy on him); Abu Yusuf al-Saydalani (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in narrating it, and this hadith is not narrated from Sayyidah Barirah (may Allah be pleased with her) except with this chain."
