Muslim

Umm 'Atiyya reported: We were forbidden to follow the bier, but it was not made absolute on us.

Umm 'Atiyya reported: We were refrained from following the bier, but it was not made absolute on us.

Umm 'Atiyya (Allah be pleased with her) reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had said: A woman must not observe mourning for one who had died for more than three (days) except for four months and ten days in the case of her husband. and she must not wear a dyed garment except one of the types made of dyed yarn, or apply collyrium, or touch perfume except a little perfume or incense, when she has been purified after her courses.

A hadith like this has been narrated on the authority of Hisham with the same chain of narrators but with a slight variation of words.

Umm 'Atiyya (Allah be pleased with her) said: We were forbidden to observe mourning for the dead beyond three days except in the case of husband (where it is permissible) for four months and ten days, and (that during this period) we should neither use collyrium nor touch perfume, nor wear dyed clothes, but concession was given to a woman when one of us was purified of our courses to make use of a little incense or scent.
