Imam Nasa'i : 3444
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ نَافِعٍ عَنْ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ قُلْتُ عَنْ أُمِّهَاقَالَ نَعَمْ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سُئِلَ عَنْ امْرَأَةٍ تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا فَخَافُوا عَلَى عَيْنِهَا أَتَكْتَحِلُ فَقَالَ قَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ تَمْكُثُ فِي بَيْتِهَا فِي شَرِّ أَحْلَاسِهَا حَوْلًا ثُمَّ خَرَجَتْ فَلَا أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا
Narrated to us [Muhammad bin Abdul A'la] he said : has told us [Khalid] he said : has told us [Syu'bah] from [Humaid bin Nafi'] from [Zainab bint Umm Salamah] I said from [her mother]? He said, "Yes. Indeed, the Prophet peace be upon him was asked about a woman whose husband had died, then they were worried about her eyes, whether she could wear eyeliner? Then he said: "Indeed, one of you lives in his house wearing the worst thin clothing for a year or so and then comes out. Then no, until four months and ten days have passed."
