Rasoolullah Using a Dye
Ash-Shama'il Al-Muhammadiyah 48
Humaid told us that Anas said:
"I saw the hair of Allah’s Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace)dyed.”
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَاصِمٍ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ‏:‏ رَأَيْتُ شَعَرَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَخْضُوبًا‏.‏

Explanation
comments
As has been explained there are different narrations on the dying of the hair of Sayyidina Rasulullahu Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam. There is an apparent contradiction between this narration and the one mentioned in the first hadith of the previous chapter, where Sayyidina Anas Radiyallahu 'Anhu denies Sayyidina Rasulullah Sallallahu' Alayhi Wasallam used a dye. we may take both narrations to be correct, as they could have been narrated at an earlier and a later period.
