حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الطُّفَاوِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، وَيَزِيدُ، أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ حَسَّانَ، عَنْ حَفْصَةَ بِنْتِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أُمِّ عَطِيَّةَ الْأَنْصَارِيَّةِ، قَالَتْ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ يَزِيدُ: عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ، " لَا تُحِدُّ الْمَرْأَةُ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثٍ، إِلَّا عَلَى زَوْجٍ، فَإِنَّهَا تُحِدُّ عَلَيْهِ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا، وَلَا تَلْبَسُ ثَوْبًا مَصْبُوغًا إِلَّا عَصْبًا، وَلَا تَكْتَحِلُ، وَلَا تَمَسُّ طِيبًا إِلَّا عِنْدَ طُهْرِهَا، قَالَ يَزِيدُ: أَدْنَى (٣) طُهْرِهَا، فَإِذَا طَهُرَتْ مِنْ مَحِيْضِهَا، نُبْذَةً مِنْ، ، قُسْطٍ وَأَظْفَارٍ " (١)، ،

It is narrated from Umm Atiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: No woman should observe mourning for any deceased person for more than three days except for her husband, for whom she should mourn for four months and ten days. She should not wear clothes dyed with any color except 'asab, nor apply kohl, nor use perfume, except when she becomes pure after her menstrual period, then she may apply a little 'asab or a perfume called azfar.
