عن انس بن مالك رضي الله عنه ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم لم يخضب قط إنما كان البياض في مقدم لحيته وفي العنفقة وفي الراس وفي الصدغين شيئا لا يكاد يرى وإن ابا بكر رضي الله عنه خضب بالحناء
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) never applied dye. There were only a few white hairs in the front part of his blessed beard, in the small beard, and at the temples, so few that even seeing them was difficult. However, Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) used to dye with henna.
