The Prohibition of Dyeing the Beard or Hair Black

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Is it permissible to dye the beard or hair black?
Dyeing the beard or hair black,I say: this is all forbidden;Because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: (Change this gray hair and keep away from black) and there is also a hadith in the Sunan containing a warning against whoever dyes white hair black.

The questioner: Even if his intention is to look handsome?The Shaykh: The most common case is that the one who dyes with black intends to look handsome and to keep his face like the face of a young man, otherwise what is the benefit? Because he will lose time, money, and effort.
