Women Dying Their Hair Black

 


Question:

Is it permissible for a woman to dye the hair upon her head with black dye?
Answer:

It is not permissible for a woman or other than her to colour their hair with black dye, because of the statement of the Messenger sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam:
ÛíÑæÇ åÐÇ ÇáÔíÈ¡ æÇÌÊäÈæÇ ÇáÓæÇÏ

"Change this colour, and stay away from the black (colour)." [1]

As for changing (the hair colour) with other than black, then no problem, or (changing it) with henna or mixed al-Katam, [2] so there is no problem with this if the colour changes to other than black, or between black and red.

_______________________________

[1] Reported by Muslim is his Saheeh.

[2] Translators Note: ÇáßÊã 'al-Katam' is a plant that gives a dark colour, from the myrtle family.
