حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا هَمَّامٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ قَالَ

قُلْتُ لأَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ هَلْ خَضَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ لَمْ يَبْلُغْ ذَلِكَ إِنَّمَا كَانَ شَيْبًا فِي صُدْغَيْهِ وَلَكِنْ أَبُو بَكْرٍ خَضَبَ بِالْحِنَّاءِ وَالْكَتَمِ

‘I said to Anas ibn Malik: “Did Allah’s Messenger ﷺ dye his hair?” He replied: ‘He did not get to that, for he was grayed only in the hair covering his temples, but Abu Bakr ᴿᴬ dyed his hair with henna and a herbal mixture called katam.”
