Chapter 12 · The Chapter on Divorceكَرَاهِيَةِ الزِّينَةِ لِلْمُتَوَفَّى عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَنْبَأَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ زَيْنَبَ ابْنَةَ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ تُحَدِّثُ، أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ، وَأُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ، تَذْكُرَانِ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً أَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَتْ: إِنَّ ابْنَةً لَهَا تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا، فَاشْتَكَتْ عَيْنُهَا، فَهِيَ تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَكْحَلَهَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: قَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ تَرْمِي بِالْبَعْرَةِ عِنْدَ رَأْسِ الْحَوْلِ، وَإِنَّمَا هِيَ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا .

It is disliked for a recently widowed woman to adorn herself
He heard Zainab رضی اللہ عنہا the daughter of Umm Salamah narrating that she heard Umm Salamah and Umm Habibah رضی اللہ عنہا mention that a woman came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said that her daughter's husband had died, and she was suffering from an eye disease, and she wanted to apply kohl to her eyes (as a remedy). The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: One of you would throw a she-camel's dropping when a year had passed (since the death of her husband. Rather it is four months and ten (days).
