بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي الْإِحْدَادِWhat is Reported Regarding Mourning
Hadith 1244
وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنْ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، وَحَفْصَةَ زَوْجَيِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ : " لَا يَحِلُّ لِامْرَأَةٍ تُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ أَنْ تُحِدَّ عَلَى مَيِّتٍ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثِ لَيَالٍ، إِلَّا عَلَى زَوْجٍ "
It is narrated from Umm al-Mu'mineen Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and Umm al-Mu'mineen Sayyidah Hafsa (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "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 nights, except for her husband."
