It is traditional.

1. Islamic law specifies that they may dye their beards and if they choose to do so, it may be any colour but black.

2. The prophet Mohammed dyed his beard with henna, which these afghanis also use.

3. When they were at war, the prophet Mohammed and his companions dyed their beards blondish red or orange to camoflage with the desert sands, and notice these afghanis are at war.
