(64) – The Command to Dye the Hair
Sunan an-Nasa'i 5242
It was narrated that Jabir said:
"Abu Quhafah was brought to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his head and beard were white like the Thaghamah. The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Change this, or dye it.'"
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ الْحَارِثِ - قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَزْرَةُ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ ثَابِتٍ - عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ أُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِأَبِي قُحَافَةَ وَرَأْسُهُ وَلِحْيَتُهُ كَأَنَّهُ ثَغَامَةٌ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ " غَيِّرُوا أَوِ اخْضِبُوا " .
