Lady Umm Atiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: "No woman should mourn for anyone who has died for more than three days except for her husband, for she should mourn for him for four months and ten days. She should not apply kohl, nor wear colored clothes, but she may wear some white and some colored clothes, and she should not use perfume except after completing her menstruation, at the time of bathing, she may use a little bit of Indian aloeswood and azfar (a type of perfume)."

Hisham narrated with this chain a narration similar to the previous hadith.

Lady Umm Atiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated: We were commanded not to wear colored clothes during mourning for a husband, except for a garment that was partly white and partly colored.

Lady Umm Atiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated: We were commanded not to apply perfume during mourning, except that after purification from menstruation, we may use a little bit of Indian aloeswood and azfar perfume at the time of bathing.
