A person in ihram applying aloes to his eye as treatment

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), concerning a man whose eyes ail while he is in ihram, that he should bandage them with aloe.

Nafi' narrates that Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) did likewise.

Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) had pain in his eye while in the state of ihram, so he put a few drops of aloe juice into it.

Alqamah said: There is no harm in applying aloe juice to the eyes in the state of ihram.

Shumaysah al-Azdiyyah said: I came to Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) while I was in the state of ihram, and I had pain in my eyes. Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "Come close, let me apply kohl (medicine) to your eyes." She had a shell-like case with aloe in it. I did not accept what she said and refused; then afterwards I deeply regretted it, wishing I had not let it go (and had let her apply it).

Sa'id bin al-Musayyib said: There is no harm in applying it.

Ata said: If a muhrim has pain in his eyes, he may apply aloe or hudad (a medicine) to his eyes, but he should not apply kohl that has perfume mixed in it.

Sa'id bin Yazid narrates that a man came to al-Hasan and said: "O Abu Sa'id! What may the muhrim apply to his eyes?" Jabir bin Zayd was sitting beside him. Al-Hasan remained silent, and Jabir said: "He may apply honey." Al-Hasan did not object to what he said.

Qatadah and Abu Hashim said: The muhrim may apply aloe, hudad (a medicine) and myrrh to his eyes.

Mujahid used to dislike black kohl for the muhrim.

He said: I mentioned that to Ibrahim, and he said: "He may apply red eye powder."
