Follow certain customs & traditions without going overboard or being excessive in our actions

This hadith speaks to the habits of the beloved prophet Muhammad ﷺ. It was narrated by Humaid that Anas bin Malik was asked if the Messenger of Allah ﷺ dyed his hair. Anas replied that he did not have any white hair apart from approximately seventeen or twenty hairs at the front of his beard. This shows us that even though he was a prophet and messenger from Allah, he still followed certain customs and habits like everyone else in society. He did not dye all of his hair but only those few white hairs on his beard as a sign of respect for himself and others around him. This teaches us to be humble and respectful in our own lives as well as to follow certain customs and traditions without going overboard or being excessive in our actions.
