Hadith text
Narrated Zainab bint Um Salama:When Um Habiba bint Abi Sufyan was informed of her father's death, she asked for perfume and rubbed it over her arms and said, "I am not in need of perfume, but I have heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "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 the (mourning) period is four months and ten days
Zainab bint Umm Salama bataati hain: Jab Umm Habiba bint Abi Sufyan ko unke waalid ki maut ki khabar mili, unhone khushbu maangi aur apni baahon par mali aur kaha, 'Mujhe khushbu ki zaroorat nahi, magar maine Nabi (SAW) ko 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 (maatam ki) muddat chaar mahine das din hai."'
