Can we pray with Henna?

can you pray with henna on hair? Since henna takes a lot of time to dye on hair overnight is not enough so i was just wondering.

The Answer

Assalamu Alaikum,

 

Yes, you can pray with Henna as long as you have wudu.  Henna is not Najas. The general rule for the wudu is: anything that blocks the water from reaching the intended region of the body must be removed to make sure wudu is complete. The exception for that is some kind of bandaids/casts for medical reasons. Some Ulama/Scholars allowed wiping of the socks if they have been work not more than a day and a night.

 

Jazakum Allah Khaiyran
