عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الْغِفَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَأَخِي رَافِعُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَأَنَا مَخْضُوبٌ بِالْحِنَّاءِ وَأَخِي مَخْضُوبٌ بِالصُّفْرَةِ فَقَالَ لِي عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ هَذَا خِضَابُ الْإِسْلَامِ وَقَالَ لِأَخِي رَافِعٍ هَذَا خِضَابُ الْإِيمَانِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Hakam bin Amr Ghafari, may Allah be pleased with him, who says: My brother Rafi’ bin Amr and I went to the Commander of the Faithful, Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him. I had dyed my hair with henna and my brother had dyed his hair with a yellow color. Sayyiduna Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, said to me: This is the Islamic color, and to my brother Rafi’, he said: This is the color of faith.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … It is understood that the yellow color is superior to henna, because the rank of iman (faith) is higher than that of Islam; however, this narration is weak.
