Umm Salama and Umm Habiba (Allah be pleased with them) were talking with each other (and saying) that a woman came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and mentioned to him that her daughter had lost her husband, and her eyes were sore and she wanted to use collyrium, whereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: One among you used to throw dung at the end of a year, and now (this abstinence from adornment) is only for four months and ten days.  

أَنَّ امْرَأَةً أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرَتْ لَهُ أَنَّ بِنْتًا لَهَا تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا فَاشْتَكَتْ عَيْنُهَا فَهْىَ تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَكْحُلَهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ تَرْمِي بِالْبَعَرَةِ عِنْدَ رَأْسِ الْحَوْلِ وَإِنَّمَا هِيَ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرٌ  

he heard Zainab the daughter of Umm Salamah narrating that she heard Umm Salamah and Umm Habibah mention that a woman came to the Prophet ﷺ and said that her daughter's husband had died, and she was suffering from an eye disease, and she wanted to apply kohl to her eyes (as a remedy). The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "One of you would throw a she-camel's dropping when a year had passed (since the death of her husband. Rather it is four months and ten (days)."  

أَنَّ امْرَأَةً أَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ ابْنَةً لَهَا تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا فَاشْتَكَتْ عَيْنُهَا فَهِيَ تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَكْحَلَهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ تَرْمِي بِالْبَعْرَةِ عِنْدَ رَأْسِ الْحَوْلِ وَإِنَّمَا هِيَ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا

(Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2084)  

أَنَّ امْرَأَةً أَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَتْ أَنَّ ابْنَةً لَهَا تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا فَاشْتَكَتْ عَيْنَيْهَا وَهِيَ تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَكْحُلَهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «قَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ تَرْمِي بِالْبَعْرَةِ عِنْدَ رَأْسِ الْحَوْلِ وَإِنَّمَا هِيَ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا»  

[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, my daughter's husband has passed away and I fear for her eyesight. Should I apply kohl to her eyes?" He (the Prophet) said, "One of you used to apply kohl to her eyes upon the completion of four months and ten days."  

يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ ابْنَتِي تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا وَقَدْ خَشِيتُ عَلَى بَصَرِهَا أَفَأَكْحُلُهَا؟ قَالَ «كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ تَرْمِي بِالْبَعْرَةِ عَلَى رَأْسِ الْحَوْلِ وَإِنَّمَا هِيَ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا»  

"One of you used to mourn for a year, then throw a piece of dung when a year had passed. Rather it (the mourning period) is four months and ten days." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3539)  

أَنَّ امْرَأَةً أَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَسَأَلَتْهُ عَنِ ابْنَتِهَا مَاتَ زَوْجُهَا وَهِيَ تَشْتَكِي عَيْنَهَا قَالَ «قَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ تُحِدُّ السَّنَةَ ثُمَّ تَرْمِي بِالْبَعْرَةِ عَلَى رَأْسِ الْحَوْلِ وَإِنَّمَا هِيَ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرٌ»  

"إِنَّمَا هى أَربعةُ أشْهر وعَشْرٌ، وقد كانت إِحداكن في الجاهليَّةِ تَرْمى بالبعرةِ على رأسِ الحولِ ".  

"عن أم سلمة قالت: جاءت امرأة إلى رسول الله ﷺ فقالت: يا رسول الله ﷺ إن ابنتي توفي زوجها وقد اشتكت عينها أفأكحلها؟ قال: لا مرتين أو ثلاثًا كل ذلك يقول: لا، ثم قال: إنما هي أربعة أشهر وعشر، وقد كانت إحداكن ترى بالبعرة على رأس الحول".
