the opinion of those whom we named from the Companions, and we do not know of any who opposed them. And because it is not a perfume, what has been dyed with it is not disliked, just like black dye or that which is dyed with maghrah (red ocher). As for wars and saffron, they are perfumes, unlike our current issue.

Section: There is no harm in what is dyed with mumaššaq (red ocher/clay), which is that which is dyed with maghrah; because it is dyed with clay, not with perfume. The same applies to that which is dyed with other dyes, aside from what we have mentioned, because the foundational principle is permissibility, except for that which the Lawgiver has brought forth a prohibition for, or that which is in its meaning, and this is not such. As for that which is dyed with fragrant flowers (rayahin), it is based upon the flowers themselves; so whatever the muhrim is prohibited from using, he is prohibited from wearing what is dyed with it, if its scent becomes apparent; otherwise, he is not.

583 - Issue: He said: (And he shall not cut any hair from his head or his body.)

The scholars are in consensus that the muhrim is prohibited from removing his hair, except out of necessity. The basis for this is the saying of Allah, the Exalted: {And do not shave your heads until the sacrificial animal reaches its place of sacrifice} (Quran 2:196). Ka'b ibn 'Ujra narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that he said: "Perhaps your head lice are bothering you?" He said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Shave your head, and fast for three days, or feed six poor people, or sacrifice a sheep." (Agreed upon). This indicates that shaving was prohibited before that, and the hair of the head and body are the same in this regard.

Section: If he has an excuse, such as illness, or lice have fallen into his head, or other things that would cause him harm if the hair were left, he may remove it, due to the verse and the hadith. Ibn Abbas said: {Whoever among you is sick} (meaning with sores on his head), {or has an ailment of the head} (meaning lice).
