Yes, having white or grey hair is generally considered good in Islam.
According to a Hadith, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) discouraged plucking out grey hair, highlighting its positive aspects.
- The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Do not pluck out grey hair. If any believer grows a grey hair in Islam, he will have light on the Day of Resurrection. Allah will record on his behalf a good deed for it, and will blot out a sin for it."
This Hadith suggests several benefits associated with grey hair:
- Light on the Day of Resurrection: Grey hair can be a source of light for a believer on the Day of Judgment.
- Good Deeds: Allah records a good deed for every grey hair.
- Forgiveness of Sins: Allah blots out a sin for every grey hair.
Therefore, instead of viewing grey hair negatively, it is seen as a blessing and a sign of wisdom and piety in Islam. Muslims are encouraged to respect and value their grey hair.
