Probably. Any white or black spots can indicate mold, which any moldy hay shouldn't be fed to rabbits as it can result in very serious health problems.

Oh okay thanks for the advice ,I tried to remove the black spot but it’s like attached to the hay so is it mold?and I tried to remove all those part from the hay is it okay to use this one till the new hay I order arrive?
 
If your rabbit has enough other food to eat and will be ok without the hay, I wouldn't risk feeding the hay. If there's mold you can see, there is also mold you can't see in the entire batch of that hay.

But if you have no other choice and you have to feed some of the hay until your new hay comes, just know there is some risk to feeding it, and pick through it carefully, removing the hay strands with any visible mold.
