Abstract

This study is concerned with the judgment of Shari‘a (Islamic Law)

about using dyes. It starts with a preface about the judgment of hair plucking

and an account of those who first became white-haired. Then it is divided

into parts covering the themes of the study: a definition of dyeing, an account

of those who first used coloring dyes, whether it was proven that the Prophet

Mohammad (PBUH) used dyes, which is better: altering white hair or not,

what color can be used for hair dyeing, the judgment of dyeing gray hair

with black, red, yellow or other colors, the judgment of dyeing hands and

feet, the judgment of using dyes by the mourning woman, the woman in

‘idda (a waiting period during which a widow or a divorcee may not remarry),

the menstruating woman and the Muhrim (Mecca pilgrim who is in a state

of ritual consecration), and the judgment of dyeing black hair.
