6. It is narrated from the narrator of the previous Hadith from his father from Yunus from abu Bakr al-Hadramiy who has said the following
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about applying hair dye with woad. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not harmful. At the time al-Husayn (a.s.), was murdered he had applied hair dye with woad. 5 ”
عَنْهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الْخِضَابِ بِالْوَسْمَةِ فَقَالَ لَا بَأْسَ قَدْ قُتِلَ الْحُسَيْنُ ( عليه السلام ) وَ هُوَ مُخْتَضِبٌ بِالْوَسْمَةِ .
