Sunan Abi Dawud 4211 (Book 35, Hadith 53) #24501
Praising Different Types of Dyeing

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) praised different types of dyeing and showed preference for the one with yellow dye.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: When a man who had dyed himself with henna passed by the Prophet , he said: How fine this is! When another man who had dyed himself with henna and katam passed by, he said: This is better than that. Then another man who had dyed himself with yellow dye, passed by, he said: This is better than all that.
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ مَرَّ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ رَجُلٌ قَدْ خَضَبَ بِالْحِنَّاءِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ مَا أَحْسَنَ هَذَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَمَرَّ آخَرُ قَدْ خَضَبَ بِالْحِنَّاءِ وَالْكَتَمِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ هَذَا أَحْسَنُ مِنْ هَذَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَمَرَّ آخَرُ قَدْ خَضَبَ بِالصُّفْرَةِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ هَذَا أَحْسَنُ مِنْ هَذَا كُلِّهِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's appreciation for different types of dyeing. He was seen praising a man who had dyed himself with henna and another man who had dyed himself with henna and katam. He then praised a third man who had dyed himself with yellow dye more than the other two. This shows us that it is important to appreciate beauty in all its forms and to not be biased towards any particular type or color. It also teaches us that we should always strive to make ourselves look better by using natural means such as dying our hair or clothing in order to enhance our appearance without going overboard or being excessive in our efforts. Furthermore, this hadith also serves as an example of how we should treat others regardless of their physical appearance; we should always show respect and appreciation for everyone regardless of their looks or background.
