11 SEP (Hadith Of The Day) - Mourn Over A Deceased

Hadith of the Day

Zainab Radiyallahu 'anha narrates: I called upon Umme Hablbah Radiyallahu 'anha, the wife of Nabi Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam, when her father Abu Sufyan ibne-Harb had passed away. Umme Habibah asked for a perfume, containing some yellow substance Khaluq or something else. She applied some of it on a maid, then, rubbed the two sides of her own face (with it) and then said: By Allah! I have no need for fragrance but that I heard Rasulullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam saying: It is not permissible for a woman who believes in Allah and the Last Day to mourn over a deceased for more than three days, except over a husband, which is for four months and ten days. (Bukhari: 5334)   Note: Khaluq is a type of combined fragrance of which saffron is a major ingredient. Share on: Email | Telegram | WhatsApp
