Question:
After this, a message was sent by one of the listening sisters. The sender is Umm Rawahah. Umm Rawahah says about herself: I am a woman, thirty-five years old, and I have gray hair. I apply henna, and afterward the color of my hair is half red and the other half black. My husband mocks me and also teases me about the gray hair. So I ask your Eminence: Is it permissible for me to use khamrah, since its color is close to dark olive? Knowing that I do not want adornment or beautification, but only for my husband. May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Change it with something that is not pure black; it should be between black and red, or yellow. As for pure black entirely; it is not permissible. But change it with something yellow, or red, or between black and red. Yes.
