The questioner : If a man dyes his beard with katam, or a woman dyes her hair with one of the dyes or colors, does that prevent water from reaching the hair during wudu'? And what is the ruling on their using that?
The Shaykh : I do not know whether these substances have a substance and a coating that prevents water from reaching the hair, or not.
So let him look into it. As for dyeing something with pure black, it is not permissible, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:, and a hadith was reported in the Sunan regarding the warning against that.
But if a person wants to change the gray hair and it is necessary, let him make it brown, not pure black and not pure yellow. Yes.
