The questioner : What is the ruling on dyeing the beard with black dye, since I have seen some people dye their beards? I ask for an answer to my question.
The Shaykh : Dyeing gray hair is a required matter, for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his family ordered it, and he said: However, it is not permissible to dye it black, due to the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his family: .
And because of the warning that came regarding this, as it was reported in the hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his family: or as he (peace and blessings be upon him) and his family said.
However, one can dispense with pure black and use a brown color between black and yellow, thereby achieving the recommended practice and avoiding the forbidden.
The questioner : May Allah bless you.
