Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الأَعْلَى بْنُ وَاصِلٍ الْكُوفِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَطِيَّةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاتِكَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ اشْتَكَتْ عَيْنِي أَفَأَكْتَحِلُ وَأَنَا صَائِمٌ قَالَ ‏"‏ نَعَمْ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ أَنَسٍ حَدِيثٌ لَيْسَ إِسْنَادُهُ بِالْقَوِيِّ وَلاَ يَصِحُّ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي هَذَا الْبَابِ شَيْءٌ ‏.‏ وَأَبُو عَاتِكَةَ يُضَعَّفُ ‏.‏ وَاخْتَلَفَ أَهْلُ الْعِلْمِ فِي الْكُحْلِ لِلصَّائِمِ فَكَرِهَهُ بَعْضُهُمْ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ سُفْيَانَ وَابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ وَأَحْمَدَ وَإِسْحَاقَ ‏.‏ وَرَخَّصَ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ فِي الْكُحْلِ لِلصَّائِمِ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ الشَّافِعِيِّ ‏.‏

'Abdul-A'la bin Wasil Al-Kufi narrated to us: Al-Hasan bin 'Atiyyah narrated to us: Abu 'Atikah narrated to us, from Anas bin Malik, who said: A man came to the Prophet and said, ‘My eye is bothering me; may I apply kohl while fasting?’ He replied, ‘Yes.’ A report on this topic is also narrated from Abu Rafi'. Abu 'Isa said: The hadith of Anas does not have a strong chain, and nothing authentic from the Prophet is established on this topic. Abu 'Atikah is considered weak. Scholars differed about applying kohl while fasting. Some disliked it; this was the view of Sufyan, Ibn Al-Mubarak, Ahmad, and Ishaq. Others permitted it; this was the view of Ash-Shafi'i.
