Passing props to MUI styles

Given the Card code as in here. How can I update the card style or any material UI style as from:

const styles = theme => ({
  card: {
  minWidth: 275,
},

To such follows:

const styles = theme => ({
  card: {
  minWidth: 275, backgroundColor: props.color
},

when I tried the latest one, I got

Line 15:  'props' is not defined  no-undef

when I updated code to be :

const styles = theme =>  (props) => ({
  card: {
  minWidth: 275, backgroundColor: props.color
},

also

 const styles  = (theme ,props) => ({
   card: {
   minWidth: 275, backgroundColor: props.color
 },

Instead of

const styles = theme => ({
  card: {
  minWidth: 275, backgroundColor: props.color
},

I got the component card style at the web page messy.

By the way, I pass props as follows:

<SimpleCard backgroundColor="#f5f2ff" />

please help!

Deleted the old answer, because it's no reason for existence.

Here's what you want:

import React from 'react';
import { makeStyles } from '@material-ui/core';

const useStyles = makeStyles({
    firstStyle: {
        backgroundColor: props => props.backgroundColor,
    },
    secondStyle: {
        color: props => props.color,
    },
});

const MyComponent = ({children, ...props}) =>{
    const { firstStyle, secondStyle } = useStyles(props);
    return(
        <div className={`${firstStyle} ${secondStyle}`}>
            {children}
        </div>
    )
}

export default MyComponent;

Now you can use it like:

<MyComponent color="yellow" backgroundColor="purple">
    Well done
</MyComponent>

Solution for how to use both props and theme in material ui :

const useStyles = props => makeStyles( theme => ({
    div: {
        width: theme.spacing(props.units || 0)  
    }
}));

export default function ComponentExample({ children, ...props }){
    const { div } = useStyles(props)();
    return (
        <div className={div}>{children}</div>
    );
}

Here the Typescript solution:

import React from 'react';
import { makeStyles } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
import Button from '@material-ui/core/Button';
import {Theme} from '@material-ui/core';

export interface StyleProps {
    height: number;
}

const useStyles = makeStyles<Theme, StyleProps>(theme => ({
  root: {
    background: 'green',
    height: ({height}) => height,
  },
}));

export default function Hook() {

  const props = {
    height: 48
  }

  const classes = useStyles(props);
  return <Button className={classes.root}>Styled with Hook API</Button>;
}
