Hadith text
Zainab further said:I want to Zainab bint Jahsh when her brother died. She asked for perfume and used some of it and said, "By Allah, I am not in need of perfume, but I have heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying on the pulpit, 'It is not lawful for a lady who believes in Allah and the last day to mourn for more than three days except for her husband for whom she should mourn for four months and ten days
Zainab ne aage kaha: Main Zainab bint Jahsh ke paas gayi jab unke bhai ka intekaal hua. Unhone khushbu maangi aur kuch lagaayi aur kaha, 'Allah ki qasam, mujhe khushbu ki zaroorat nahi, magar maine Allah ke Rasool (SAW) ko mimbar par ye farmaate suna hai, "Kisi aisi aurat ke liye jaayez nahi jo Allah aur Aakhirat ke din par Iman rakhti ho ke wo teen din se zyaada maatam kare, siwaaye apne shohar ke, jiske liye use chaar mahine das din maatam karna chaahiye."'
