The ruling on wearing colored contact lenses for adornment and dyeing hair with colors

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Umm Bushrah also asks and says: Is it permissible to wear colored contact lenses for adornment for the husband and others, and likewise to dye hair with colored dyes or mix them, or with henna? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
If there is a defect or disfigurement in the eyes, there is nothing wrong with wearing colored contact lenses to remove this disfigurement from the eyes. However, if the eyes are sound, there is no need to change their color to another color. Likewise, if the hair’s natural color is beautiful and customary, there is no need to change it to other colors; let it remain its original color. What must be changed is white hair; it is recommended to change it, not obligatory, it is only recommended to change it to something other than black, such as henna or katam, or any color other than pure black. As for hair other than white hair, it is not permissible to change it unless it is disfiguring. Yes.
