Talk:Henna

Wikipedia for some reason, views the hadith as 100% accurate information

When you're saying that something is done "according to the sunnah" and it's not mentioned in the Quran, then you should put the term "alleged" next to it. The Quran is the one source that Muslims 100% follow and agree upon, the hadith is not. One person will say the hadith is weak another will say it's true. Even though the Quran has verses which reject the use of the hadith you seem to favour hadiths which is a case of Wikipedia catering to political sects of Islam. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marccarran (talk • contribs) 16:28, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

Information contradicts with main photo

the main photo of this article is a man with dyed hair, yet the article states "Neutral[sic? natural] henna does not change the colour of hair. This is not henna powder; it is usually the powder of the plant Senna italica (often referred to by the synonym Cassia obovata) or closely related Cassia and Senna species."

The article is wont of love, I fear.

The section about black henna is too detailed (and too technical?). There are too many not-dissimilar examples of its use listed in the "Regions" section. Large swaths of the article (tagged) rely only on a single source.

And in general, the article is rather messy in its presentation, copy and tone. It's one of those articles where you can feel the trace of each individual editor from the past, swaying in and out of NPOV. Neatly95 (talk) 01:44, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Treating Europe as a homogenous region, like always, makes no sense; henna is culturally used in Eastern Europe and has been for more than a millenia

Henna is used largely by Muslims but also by Christians in the Balkans including Slavs, Albanians, Vlachs, and Turkic populations. It's used in Crimea among Crimean Tatars and Urum. It's used in the North Caucausus and has been used in Dagestan for more than a thousand years. The same goes for the Volga region where ancestors of Tatars and Bashkirs have used in for more than a thousand years. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ~2026-41075-22 (talk) 11:57, 22 July 2026 (UTC)
