It is narrated from Sayyiduna Fadalah bin Ubayd (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever's hair turns white in the way of Allah, that whiteness will be a light for him on the Day of Resurrection." A man said: "But some people pluck out their white hairs." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever wishes may pluck out his whiteness," or he said: "(may pluck out) his light."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "This hadith is narrated from Fadalah bin Ubayd (may Allah be pleased with him) only with this chain; Wahb bin Jarir is alone in narrating it."
