It is narrated from Sayyidah Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: 'Whoever grows white hair in the state of Islam (i.e. whose hair turns white while remaining in Islam), that whiteness will be a light for him, provided he does not change it (with black dye).'"
وَقَالَ إِسْحَاقُ : أَخْبَرَنَا بَقِيَّةُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ، حَدَّثَنِي ثَابِتُ بْنُ عَجْلَانَ ، حَدَّثَنِي مُجَاهِدُ بْنُ جَبْرٍ الْمَكِّيُّ ، قَالَ : قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : مَنْ شَابَ شَيْبَةَ الْإِسْلَامِ كَانَتْ لَهُ نُورًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ " .

He said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'Whoever's hair turned white in the state of Islam, that whiteness will be a light for him on the Day of Resurrection,' and I am not going to change my white hair (i.e. I will not dye it)."
