As long as the white hair remains, what is the ruling on changing it with katam or henna?
White hair is not to be removed; the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade plucking white hair. However, it may be changed to yellow or red, as well as to colors between black and red. It must not be changed to black. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The Sunnah is to change it with henna and katam, or with other types of dye, except for pure black. No.
