Guidance on applying collyrium for eye treatment during Ihram
Hadith 34
34 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ، ثنا سُفْيَانُ، ثنا أَيُّوبُ بْنُ مُوسَي، أَخْبَرَنِي نُبَيْهُ بْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ: اشْتَكَي عُمَرُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَعْمَرٍ عَيْنَهُ بِمَلَلٍ وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَي أَبَانَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ يَسْأَلُهُ بِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ يُعَالِجُهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبَانُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ: اضْمُدْهُمَا بِالصَّبِرِ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ يُخْبِرُ بِذَلِكَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «يُضَمِّدُهَا بِالصَّبِرِ»
Nabiyah bin Wahb narrates: At the place of "Milal," Umar bin Ubaidullah developed an eye ailment while he was in the state of Ihram. He sent a message to Aban bin Uthman and asked him: With what should he treat it? So Aban bin Uthman said: Apply sabr (a specific type of herb) on it, because I heard Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) narrate from the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A man should apply sabr (a specific type of herb) on it."
