“I came to the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) with a son of mine, so he said; ‘Is this your son?’ I said: ‘Yes,I acknowledge him!’ He said: ‘He must not harm you, and you must not harm him!’ I also noticed that the grayness of his hair was reddish.”

“Did Allah’s Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace) dye [his hair]?” He said: “Yes!”

"I saw Allah’s Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace) come out of his house shaking his head, for he had performed the major ritual ablution, and on his head there was some trace of henna." (Or he said: saffron. The Shaikh doubted this.)

"I saw the hair of Allah’s Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace)dyed.”

'Abdullah ibn Muhammad ibn 'Uqail also informed us: "I saw the hair of Allah’s Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace) dyed in the presence of Anas ibn Malik."
