English Translation

Abu Sa'id narrated to us, al-Muthanna narrated to us, from Qatadah, from Anas (رضي الله عنه) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ never dyed his hair. The whiteness was only at the front of his beard, on the tuft beneath his lower lip, at the temples, and scattered lightly in his head hair.
