"Whenever the Messenger of Man used to wear kohl, he would use it thrice in the right eye - beginning with it and finishing with it - and twice in the left eye."

"Those who use Kohl should use it an odd number of times."
One should use an odd number of times when applying Kohl in both eyes, thrice in the right eye and then twice in the left eye. Or, one should use the Kohl thrice in each eye, as Imam Ahmad has stated.
Kohl preserves the health of the eye, strengthens and clears the sight and removes harmful substances, along with adding a touch of beauty to the eye. When one uses kohl before he goes to sleep, it is beneficial for the eye, especially since the eyes will not be moving and thus the kohl will have its most favorable affect. The ithmid type of kohl is especially effective in this regard.

"Use Ithmid (antimony), because it clears the eye and grows the eyelashes." [Al-Hakim}.

"The best of your kohl is the Ithmid (antimony), because it dears the sight and causes the eyelashes to grow."
