Is henna an adornment or a Sunnah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Regarding henna, the questioner asks: Is it a Sunnah or an adornment, O Shaykh?

Answer : Henna is an adornment. It is not a Sunnah. For this reason, some scholars have said that a young woman who has no husband should not use it. However, the stronger position is that it is a custom and an adornment. Does a young woman who has not married use it? Or others? May Allah reward you and bless you, and thank you, sister.
