ahmad:12828Sahl b. Yūsuf > Ḥumayd

[Machine] Anas ibn Malik was asked, did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ dye his hair? He replied, no, his hair was not gray. It was then said, O Abu Hamzah, what is gray hair? He said, it is when all of you dislike it. Abu Bakr would dye his hair using henna and katam (a type of hair dye), and Umar would dye his hair using henna.  

أحمد:١٢٨٢٨حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ قَالَ

سُئِلَ أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ هَلْ خَضَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ لَا لَمْ يَشِنْهُ الشَّيْبُ قَالَ فَقِيلَ يَا أَبَا حَمْزَةَ وَشَيْنٌ هُوَ؟ قَالَ يُقَالُ كُلُّكُمْ يَكْرَهُهُ وَخَضَبَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ بِالْحِنَّاءِ وَالْكَتَمِ وَخَضَبَ عُمَرُ بِالْحِنَّاءِ

Anas b. Malik was asked whether Messenger of Allah ﷺ dyed his hair. He said: He had not become old enough to have white hair. Ibn Idris said that he had a few white hair. Abu Bakr and Umar, however, dyed hair with hina' (henna).

I asked Anas b. Malik whether Messenger of Allah ﷺ dyed his hair. He said: He had not reached the stage when (he needed) dyeing (of his white hair). He had a few white hair in his beard. I said to him: Did Abu Bakr dye his hair? He said: Yes, with hina' (henna).
