Are you talking about a cryptographic hash? If so, then you can't retrieve the password from the hash. That's the whole point of cryptographic hashing - it's a 1 way process. I suggest you read this article[^] to gain a better understanding of the subject.

If you are hashing passwords, your application should offer a user the means to reset their password if they have forgotten it. Typically you would ask the user to identify themselves, for instance by answering a personal question that only they would know the answer to. You could consider encrypting the password instead so it could be retrieved. However then you have the issue of securing the encryption key. Hashing passwords is, in my opinion, the preferred approach.
