Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 4568 — he said: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ قَالَ : نَا مَحْبُوبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ النُّمَيْرِيُّ أَبُو غَسَّانَ قَالَ : نَا أَبُو سُفْيَانَ الْمَدِينِيُّ ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ فَرَاهِيجَ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ : لَمَّا فَتَحَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَكَّةَ ، وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ قَائِمٌ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ قَالَ : بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، إِنَّ أَبَا قُحَافَةَ شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ ، وَإِنَّهُ بِنَاحِيَةِ مَكَّةَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : I " قُمْ بِنَا إِلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، هُوَ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يَأْتِيَكَ ، فَجِيءَ بِأَبِي قُحَافَةَ ، كَأَنَّ لِحْيَتَهُ وَرَأْسَهُ ثَغَامَةٌ بَيْضَاءُ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : I " غَيِّرُوهُ ، وَجَنِّبُوهُ السَّوَادَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) conquered Makkah, and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) was standing by his head, he said: 'O Messenger of Allah, may my father and mother be ransomed for you! Abu Quhafah is a very old man, and he is in a corner of Makkah.' The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Come with us to him.' He said: 'O Messenger of Allah, he is more deserving that he should come to you himself.' So Sayyiduna Abu Quhafah (may Allah be pleased with him) was brought, (and his state was such) that his head and beard were completely white, like the thaghamah (a white-flowering plant). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Change it (this whiteness), and keep it away from black.'"
