اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، نا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أُمِّ عَطِيَّةَ قَالَتْ: ((أُمِرْنَا فِي الْإِحْدَادِ أَنْ لَا نَمَسَّ طِيبًا إِلَّا أَدْنَى الطُّهْرَةِ بِالْكَسْتِ وَالْأَظْفَارِ)).
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.
