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)."

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).

It is allowed for a woman (or a man) to change the hair color, although it should not be colored black. Please read the fatawa below.

Ablution would not be affected unless the hair was covered with some thick, waxy or greasy substance that prevented water from reaching it.

Title: It is not permissible for a woman to dye her hair black

Question:


I know that it is permissible for a woman to use henna to color her hair, but i am wondering if it is okay to use bleach or other hair coloring on womens hair.

Answer:

Praise be to Allaah.

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen was asked about that and he said:

If the hair is dyed black, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) forbade that when he commanded a man to change his white hair, but to avoid black. He said: “Change this white hair but avoid black.” (See Saheeh Muslim, 5476). A stern warning has also been narrated to the one who does that, namely the hadeeth of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): “There will be people at the end of time who will dye their hair black like the crops of birds; they will not even smell the fragrance of Paradise.” (Narrated by Abu Dawood, 4212; al-Nasaa'i, 8/138; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami', 8153). This indicates that it is forbidden to change the hair with black dye. With regard to changing it with different colours of dye, the basic principle is that it is permissible, unless it is done in the manner of kaafir women or immoral women, in which case it is forbidden for that reason, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever imitates a people is one of them.” (Narrated by Abu Dawood, 4031; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Irwa' al-Ghaleel, 5/109).

but just wanted to find out if using leading brand dyes allows us to perform wudhu/ghusl?

deja vu!

There is another thread like this.. I've been posting on it

i've been doing some research (if u can count chechking other sites for responses research!)
lol


according to most Hair dyes such as L'oreal & Garnier ARE permissable.
as they alter the colour of the hair but don't coat it, allowing ghusl....

but some still argue dyeing it chemically "coats"
hair....

also Ammonia & Peroxide aren't deemed harram, so they are ok to use i suppose.
although most dyes now don't have ammonia anyways....
with reagard to alcohol, if it did have alcohol in, will it not just wash off after the application?

most Shampoos & Conditioners have some form of alcohol, but i still use it.....:/

I think you can use hair dye that contains alcohol in it, as alcohol only becomes haram when we drink it.

Alcohol is not najis (impure) in a physical sense; rather it is taahir (pure). So if it were to spill on your clothing, your clothing doesn't become haram.

Perfumes contain alcohol and you spray them on your clothing.

If the percentage of alcohol is very little, we say that it does not matter, and a person may use them without any concern, such as if the alcohol content is 5% or less. This does not matter.


If the percentage of alcohol is very high, so that you can detect it, then it is better not to use it except where it is necessary, such as for sterilizing wounds and the like.


In cases where it is not necessary, it is better not to use it, but we do not say that it is haram. The most we can say is that this high alcohol content is an intoxicant, and no doubt consuming intoxicants is haram according to the texts of Islam and the consensus of the scholars, but is using it in ways other than drinking it permissible? This is open to speculation, but to be on the safe side we should not use it.

By the same token, using hair dyes with alcohol should be ok, especially since it washes away.

I don;t care what you think - I care for how you mislead people without knowledge. So be quiet if you don't know a thing!

Do you have proof for this claim?

should take your own advice if you have no proof.
