باب ما جاء فى خضاب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلمChapter: What has been reported concerning the dyeing (of hair) of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
A Few Red Blessed Hairs
Hadith 45
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنِ إِيَادِ بْنِ لَقِيطٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو رِمْثَةَ قَالَ: أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَعَ ابْنٍ لِي، فَقَالَ: «ابْنُكَ هَذَا؟» فَقُلْتُ: نَعَمْ أَشْهَدُ بِهِ، قَالَ: «لَا يَجْنِي عَلَيْكَ، وَلَا تَجْنِي عَلَيْهِ» قَالَ: وَرَأَيْتُ الشَّيْبَ أَحْمَرَ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى: " هَذَا أَحْسَنُ شَيْءٍ رُوِيَ فِي هَذَا الْبَابِ، وَأَفْسَرُ؛ لِأَنَّ الرُّوَايَاتِ الصَّحِيحَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ يَبْلُغِ الشَّيْبَ. وَأَبُو رِمْثَةَ اسْمُهُ: رِفَاعَةُ بْنُ يَثْرِبِيٍّ التَّيْمِيُّ "
Sayyiduna Abu Rimthah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that I, along with my son, presented myself in the noble service of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace be upon him) asked: "Is this your son?" I replied: Yes! And I bear witness to it. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "You will not be held accountable for your son's faults, nor will your son be held accountable for your faults." Abu Rimthah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: At that time, I saw a few blessed hairs of the Prophet (peace be upon him) inclined towards red. Abu Isa (Imam Tirmidhi, may Allah have mercy on him) said: In this chapter, this narration is the best and clearest, because in authentic ahadith it is mentioned that whiteness had not yet appeared in the hair of the Prophet (peace be upon him), and Abu Rimthah's name is Rifaa'ah bin Yathrabi al-Taymi.
