Answer 1

first, if you use the standard \yii\grid\DataColumn then the label property cannot accept an anonymous function. Secondly, in order to display the html content correctly, you need to set the encodeLabel parameter to false
. For example, like this:

[
    'attribute' => 'user_id',
    'label' => '<i class="fa fa-user-circle" aria-hidden="true"></i>',
    'encodeLabel' => false
]
