٢٢۔ كِتَابُ الطَّلَاقِ
"Umm Habibah said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allah say: It is not permissible for a woman who believes in Allah and the Last Day to mourn for anyone who dies for more than three days, except for a husband; (she mourns for him for) four months and ten (days)." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3500)
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَا يَحِلُّ لِامْرَأَةٍ تُؤْمِنُ بِاللهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ تُحِدُّ عَلَى مَيِّتٍ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ إِلَّا عَلَى زَوْجٍ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا»
"From her mother?" He said: "Yes" - "that the Prophet was asked about a woman whose husband had died but they were worried about her eyes - could she use kohl?" He said: "One of you used to stay in her house wearing her shabbiest clothes for a year, then she would come out. No, (the mourning period is) four months and ten (days)." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3501)
نَعَمْ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ سُئِلَ عَنِ امْرَأَةٍ تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا فَخَافُوا عَلَى عَيْنِهَا أَتَكْتَحِلُ؟ فَقَالَ «قَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ تَمْكُثُ فِي بَيْتِهَا فِي شَرِّ أَحْلَاسِهَا حَوْلًا فَإِذَا مَرَّ رَمَتْ بِبَعَرَةٍ ثُمَّ خَرَجَتْ فَلَا أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا»
"A woman came to the Prophet and said: 'My daughter's husband has died, and I am worried about her eyes. Can I apply kohl to her?' The Messenger of Allah said: 'One of you used to stay (in mourning) for a year. Rather (the mourning period is) four months and ten (days). And when that year had passed she would go out and fling a piece of dung behind her.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3502)
عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ قَيْسِ بْنِ قَهْدٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ وَجَدُّهُ قَدْ أَدْرَكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ نَافِعٍ عَنْ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ وَأَمِّ حَبِيبَةَ قَالَتَا جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ ابْنَتِي تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا وَإِنِّي أَخَافُ عَلَى عَيْنِهَا أَفَأَكْحُلُهَا؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «قَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ تَجْلِسُ حَوْلًا وَإِنَّمَا هِيَ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا فَإِذَا كَانَ الْحَوْلُ خَرَجَتْ وَرَمَتْ وَرَاءَهَا بِبَعَرَةٍ»
"It is not permissible for a woman who believes in Allah and the Last Day to mourn for anyone who dies for more than three days except for a husband; she should mourn for him for four months and ten (days)." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3503)
أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ حَفْصَةَ بِنْتَ عُمَرَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا يَحِلُّ لِامْرَأَةٍ تُؤْمِنُ بِاللهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ أَنْ تُحِدَّ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثٍ إِلَّا عَلَى زَوْجٍ فَإِنَّهَا تُحِدُّ عَلَيْهِ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا»
[Machine] Narrated by some of the wives of the Prophet ﷺ and Umm Salamah, that the Prophet ﷺ said: "It is not permissible for a woman who believes in Allah and the Last Day to mourn for a deceased person for more than three days, except for her husband. For in that case, she should mourn for him for four months and ten days." [296] 5668 Muhammad ibn Isma'il ibn Ibrahim informed me, he said: Sahmy reported to me, and his name is Abdullah ibn Bakr ibn Habib, he said: Sa'id reported to us, from Ayub, from Nafi', from Safiyyah bint Abi 'Ubaid, from some of the wives of the Prophet ﷺ , and she is Umm Salamah, from the Prophet ﷺ with a similar narration.
عَنْ بَعْضِ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَعَنْ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا يَحِلُّ لِامْرَأَةٍ تُؤْمِنُ بِاللهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ وَتُؤْمِنُ بِاللهِ وَرَسُولِهِ تُحِدُّ عَلَى مَيِّتٍ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ إِلَّا عَلَى زَوْجٍ فَإِنَّهَا تُحِدُّ عَلَيْهِ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا» [296] 5668 أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا السَّهْمِيُّ وَاسْمُهُ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ بَكْرِ بْنِ حَبِيبٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنْ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَهِيَ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ نَحْوَهُ
