Reported `Amr bin Shu`aib, on the authority of his father and grandfather that the Prophet (PBUH) said, "
Do
not pluck out grey hair, for they are the Muslim's light on the Day of Resurrection
.''
[Abu Dawud, At-Tirmidhi and An-Nasa'i].
Commentary:
Plucking of gray hair, usually a sign of old age, should be avoided because besides the benefit which
one gets from them in the Afterlife, they are a means of respect in this world.

`Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "
He who does
something contrary to our way (i.e., Islam) will have it rejected
.''
[Muslim].
Commentary:
"
Contrary to our way
'' means such acts which have neither been allowed or justified nor can be
justified by any principle of Shari`ah. Thus, this Hadith makes it abundantly clear that all heresies and violations of
Shari`ah will not be accepted by Allah. Every Muslim is required to be a faithful follower of Divine orders rather
than a heretic and a rebel.
