46 - Chapter: What the woman in waiting period ('iddah) must abstain from

2302 - Ya'qub ibn Ibrahim al-Dawraqi narrated to us, Yahya ibn Abi Bukayr narrated to us, Ibrahim ibn Tahman narrated to us, Hisham ibn Hassan narrated to me (h)

And 'Abdullah ibn al-Jarrah al-Quhustani narrated to us, from 'Abdullah — meaning Ibn Bakr al-Sahmi — from Hisham

— and this is the wording of Ibn al-Jarrah — from Hafsah

from Umm 'Atiyyah that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "A woman shall not observe mourning (ihdad) for more than three days, except for a husband, for she shall observe mourning for him for four months and ten days. She shall not wear a garment dyed with safflower (masbug), except a garment of 'asb (coarse striped cloth), nor shall she apply kohl, nor touch perfume, except for the barest amount when she has purified herself from her menses — a small amount of qust (costus) and azfar (fragrant wood)." Ya'qub said in place of 'asb: "except washed (maghsul)," and Ya'qub added: "nor shall she dye her hands with henna (takhtadib)."

Al-Nasa'i added in the first place: "nor shall she comb her hair (tamtasht)."

It was also recorded in full and in abridged form by al-Bukhari (313) and (5341), and Muslim following (1491), and al-Nasa'i in al-Kubra (5699) via two chains from Hafsah, and al-Bukhari (1279) and (5340) via the chain of Muhammad ibn Sirin, both from Umm 'Atiyyah, with it. Al-Bukhari added via the chain of Hafsah: "And we were forbidden from following funeral processions."

It is also in Musnad Ahmad (20794), and Sahih Ibn Hibban (4305).
