##viral #trending #fyp #f #following The Messenger of Allāh صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ said, ❝Do not pluck out grey hair, for they are the Muslim's light on the Day of Resurrection.❞ [Abu Dawud, At-Tirmidhi and An- Nasa'i] Hadith 1.23.1 Leaving grey hairs in place This applies to both men and women. 'Amr ibn Shu'aib related on the authority of his father from his grandfather that the Prophet said, "Do not pluck the grey hairs as they are a Muslim's light. Never a Muslim grows grey in Islam except that Allah writes for him, due to that, a good deed. And he raises him a degree. And he erases for him, due to that, one of his sins." (Related by Ahmad, Abu Dawud, at-Tirmidhi, an-Nasa'i and Ibn Majah.) And Anas said, "We used to hate that a man should pluck out his white hairs from his head or beard." (Related by Muslim. ) Hadith 1.23.A Changing the color of grey hair by using henna, red dye, yellow dye, and so on Abu Hurairah reported that the Prophet, upon whom be peace, said, "The Jews and Christians do not dye, so differ from them." (Related by "the group.") Abu Dharr reported that the Messenger of Allah said, "The best thing that one can use to change the color of grey hairs is henna and katm (a reddish dye)." (Related by "the five.") There are some narrations that state that dying is disliked, but it is obvious that these narrations conflict with the sunnah and custom. It is related from some of the companions that it is better not to dye, while others say it is better to do it. Some used a yellow dye, while others used henna or katm. Others used saffron, and a group of them used a black dye. Ibn Hajr mentioned in Fath al-Bari that az-Zuhri said, "We used black dye if our face was youthful, but if wrinkles were present and the teeth were gone we would not use it." Said Jabir, "Abu Quhafah (Abu Bakr's father) was brought to the Prophet during the conquest of Makkah while his head was "white." The Prophet, upon whom be peace, said, "Take him to one of his wives and let her change the color of his hair with something, but she should avoid (making his hair) black." (Related by "the group," except for al-Bukhari and at-Tirmidhi). This dealt with a certain incident, and cannot be generalized. Furthermore, black would not be proper for someone as old as Abu Quhafah. Similar versions are recorded in Ibn Hibban, Abu Dawud (4202), at-Tirmidhi (2821), an-Nasa’i (5068), and Ibn Majah (3721). Light on Resurrection: Grey hair is described as the "light of the believer" on the Day of Judgment.Triple Reward: For every grey hair grown while in Islam, a believer receives one good deed (hasanah), is raised one degree in status, and has one sin erased. Plucking: It is generally considered reprehensible (makruh) to pluck grey hair from the head or moustache. Some scholars, such as Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen, state it is forbidden (haram) to pluck it from the beard because it falls under namas (prohibited plucking of facial hair). Dyeing: While plucking is discouraged, changing the color with henna or other permissible dyes (avoiding pure black) is a recommended Sunnah. - @lightofsunnah43
