Question:
Some scholars have issued a ruling that it is permissible to dye the beard black. What is the stronger position in this matter? And what is the opinion of the majority of scholars regarding this?
Answer:
Yes, they may issue rulings and they may say what they say, but the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Keep it away from black." He also spoke about a group of people who dye themselves black in the end times, saying they will be like the crops of pigeons; they will not enter Paradise and they will not smell the scent of Paradise. This is a severe warning. This indicates that dyeing with black is forbidden. If someone issues a ruling that it is permissible, he is mistaken. This is an error, a mistake. A ruling may be wrong because the mufti is not infallible.
