Thread: Henna and its uses in the past and today

"The best thing with which to color your gray hair is henna or katm." [Abu Daawood and At-Tirmithi]
Jaabir Ibn 'Abdullaah narrated that Abu Quhaafa (the Father of Abu Bakr) came on the day of the conquest of Makkah with his hair and beard extremely white. The Prophet said: “Change his hair color with something and do not use black.”

Salmah, the Prophet's ,maid, said: “Anyone who complained to the Prophet from pain in his head, he would say to him, ‘cup it.’ And when complained from pain in the foot, he would tell him, ‘Dye it with henna.’”[Abu Daawood and Ibn Maajah]
