Meaning

English

A relative of Umm Habībah died, so she asked for a yellow perfume and wiped it over her arms and said: "I do this only because I heard the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) say: It is not lawful for a woman who believes in Allah and the Last Day to mourn for a deceased more than three [days], but for her husband, four months and ten days.'"

Source textOriginal Arabic
عن زينب بنت أبي سلمة قالت: تُوُفِّيَ حَمِيْمٌ لأم حبيبة، فدعت بصُفْرَةٍ، فَمَسحَتْ بذراعيها، فقالت: إنما أصنع هذا؛ لأني سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول: «لا يحل لامرأة تؤمن بالله واليوم الآخر أن تُحِدَّ على ميت فوق ثلاث، إلا على زوج: أربعة أشهر وعشرًا».
