What is the ruling on changing the color of white hair?

Question : He says: I do not like to dye my beard, so is it better to dye it or not?

Answer : Yes, changing the whiteness is a recommended practice (sunnah); the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded it, but not with black. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Change this gray hair and avoid black. So he commanded changing it, but commanded avoiding black. Accordingly, it is changed with another color, either with henna that is yellow, or by mixing red and black so that it becomes dark brown, meaning brownish, but it is not obligatory. If a person leaves it, he owes nothing, and he does not follow that; rather, it is from the category of what is better.
