Hadith 949

اُردوEn
وعن أم سلمة رضي الله عنها قالت : جعلت على عيني صبرا بعد أن توفي أبو سلمة فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم : « إنه يشب الوجه فلا تجعليه إلا بالليل وانزعيه بالنهار ولا تمتشطي بالطيب ولا بالحناء فإنه خضاب». قلت : بأي شيء أمتشط ؟ قال : « بالسدر ». رواه أبو داود والنسائي وإسناده حسن.
Narrated Umm Salamah (RA): I put Sabir (a type of medicine) on my eyes after Abu Salamah (RA) had died. So Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "It gives the face a glow, so apply it only at night and remove it in the day time, and do not comb (your hair) with scent or henna, for it is a dye." I asked, "What should I use when combing (my hair)?" He replied, "You should use lote-tree leaves." [Reported by Abu Dawud and an-Nasa'i: its chain of narrators is Hasan (good)].

Explanation & Benefits
Nasai — Hadith 3567
´Umm Hakim bint Asid narrated from her mother that her husband died and she had a problem in her eye, so she applied kohl to clear her eyes. She sent a freed slave woman of hers to Umm Salamah to ask her about using kohl to clear her eyes. She said:` "Do not use kohl unless it cannot be avoided. The Messenger of Allah entered upon me when Abu Salamah died and I had put some aloe juice on my eyes. He said: 'What is this, O Umm Salamah?' I said: 'It is aloe juice, O Messenger of Allah, there is no perfume in it.' He said: 'It makes the face look bright, so only use it at night, and do not comb your hair with perfume or henna, for it is a dye.' I said: 'With what can I comb it, O Messenger of Allah?' He said: 'With lote leaves -cover your head with them.'"
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
This narration is weak in its chain of transmission; however, it is correct that anything which imparts color—such as kohl (surma) or henna (mehndi)—or anything that beautifies and enhances the radiance of the face—such as aloe—or anything that gives fragrance—such as scented soap, perfume, etc.—is prohibited for a woman during mourning. However, bathing (ghusl), simple combing, and the use of unscented soap are permissible. Lotus leaves (beri ke patte) neither impart color nor fragrance; therefore, they may be used.
