The ruling on dyeing hair dark brown

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on dyeing hair dark brown solely for the purpose of beautification?

Answer:
If the hair has no issue and is in its natural state, whether black or any other color, it should be left as is and not changed, unless the color is disfiguring. If the hair color is disfiguring, it should be changed, or if it is gray, it should be changed with something other than pure black. As for black that is not pure, but has a reddish tint, there is no harm in it. Likewise, making it black with yellow, saffron, or henna, all of this is permissible. What is forbidden is only pure black. Yes.
