English translation

[3742] 67 - (...) It was narrated that Umm ʿAṭiyyah said: "We were forbidden to mourn for more than three days for anyone who dies, except for a husband, four months and ten days, when we were not to put on kohl or perfume, or wear dyed garments. But a concession was granted to a woman when she purifies herself - when one of us washed herself (Ghusl) following menses - to use a little Qust or Azfār."

Arabic text

67 - (938) وحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ الزَّهْرَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ حَفْصَةَ، عَنْ أُمِّ عَطِيَّةَ، قَالَتْ: «كُنَّا نُنْهَى أَنْ نُحِدَّ عَلَى مَيِّتٍ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثٍ، إِلَّا عَلَى زَوْجٍ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا، وَلَا نَكْتَحِلُ، وَلَا نَتَطَيَّبُ، وَلَا نَلْبَسُ ثَوْبًا مَصْبُوغًا، وَقَدْ رُخِّصَ لِلْمَرْأَةِ فِي طُهْرِهَا إِذَا اغْتَسَلَتْ إِحْدَانَا مِنْ مَحِيضِهَا، فِي نُبْذَةٍ مِنْ قُسْطٍ وَأَظْفَارٍ»
