English translation
[3740] 66 - (938 [sic]) It was narrated from Umm 'Aṭīyah that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "No woman should mourn for more than three days for anyone who dies, except for her husband; four months and ten days, when she should not wear any dyed clothes except a garment made of ʿAṣb,[1] and she should not put on kohl or perfume except in the case of purifying herself after menses, when she may use a little Qust or Azfār."[2]
