The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
Males are permitted to dye their whitened hair and beards with henna or a similar dye. It is permitted for men to dye their hair. However, it is not permitted for aged men to dye their white hair black with the intention of seeming young. They can dye with another color.
Women can dye their hair in order to look beautiful to their husbands. But the dyes should not form a layer on the skin.
