أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي بُكَيْرٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ طَهْمَانَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي بُدَيْلٌ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ ، عَنْ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ شَيْبَةَ ، عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " الْمُتَوَفَّى عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا لَا تَلْبَسُ الْمُعَصْفَرَ مِنَ الثِّيَابِ ، وَلَا الْمُمَشَّقَةَ ، وَلَا تَخْتَضِبُ ، وَلَا تَكْتَحِلُ " .
´It was narrated from Safiyyah bint Shaibah, from Umm Salamah, the wife of the Prophet, that the Prophet said:` "The woman whose husband has died should not wear clothes that are dyed with safflower or red clay, and she should not use dye nor kohl."

Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
English Translation:
It is prohibited to wear cloth that has been dyed afterwards, regardless of what substance or color it has been dyed with. "Mishq" refers to red clay (geru) with which the cloth used to be dyed. Nowadays, almost every cloth is dyed only after being woven, so it is difficult to find such cloth whose thread was dyed before weaving. Therefore, in the present time, such plain clothes should be worn in which, generally, there is no display of adornment, which are not flashy, floral, or of bright colors—for example: old clothes, etc. The objective is to abandon adornment. And Allah knows best.
