حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ زَيْدٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَسْلَمَ:‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَكَانَ يَصْبُغُ لِحْيَتَهُ بِالصُّفْرَةِ حَتَّى تَمْتَلِئَ ثِيَابُهُ مِنَ الصُّفْرَةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقِيلَ لَهُ:‏‏‏‏ لِمَ تَصْبُغُ بِالصُّفْرَةِ ؟ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصْبُغُ بِهَا وَلَمْ يَكُنْ شَيْءٌ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَدْ كَانَ يَصْبُغُ ثِيَابَهُ كُلَّهَا حَتَّى عِمَامَتَهُ .

Ibn Umar رضی اللہ عنہما used to dye his beard with yellow colour so much so that his clothes were filled (dyed) with yellowness. He was asked: Why do you dye with yellow colour? He replied: I saw the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم dyeing with yellow colour, and nothing was dearer to him than it. He would dye all his clothes with it, even his turban.
