Question

I wanted to dye my hair with mendi. I don the purdah when I go outside. My husband says I must not do it. He does not give me permission. What should I do?

Answer

If your husband does not want you to dye your hair, then you should listen to him.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
