A relative or close kin of Sayyida Umm Habibah (may Allah be pleased with her) passed away, so after three days she sent for yellow color and applied it to her cheeks and said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: It is not permissible for a woman who believes in Allah and the Last Day to mourn for any deceased person for more than three days, except for her husband, for whom she will mourn for four months and ten days.
