Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 8774

وَعَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ عُمَرَ كَانَ لَا يُغَيِّرُ شَيْبَهُ ، فَقِيلَ لَهُ : يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَلَا تُغَيِّرُ ، فَقَدْ كَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يُغَيِّرُ ؟ فَقَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : " مَنْ شَابَ شَيْبَةً فِي الْإِسْلَامِ كَانَتْ لَهُ نُورًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ " وَمَا إِنَّا نُغَيِّرُ شَيْئًا .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ وَالْأَوْسَطِ بِنَحْوِهِ ، وَفِيهِ سُوَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ، وَهُوَ مَتْرُوكٌ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) did not change (the colour of) his white hair (that is, he did not dye it). This was raised with him: "O Commander of the Faithful! Do you not change it, when Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) used to change it (that is, he used to dye it)?" Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Whoever's hair turns white while in Islam, it will be a light for him on the Day of Resurrection." (Then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said:) "So I will not change any of it."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir, and something similar in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its chain contains a narrator, Suwayd bin Abd al-Aziz, who is matruk (abandoned).
