Fatawa of the Makkah Haram-1421-01b
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: From Umm Atiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her): that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih Muslim 938c.
'Asb: garments from Yemen containing white and black.
Al-Nabdah: a small amount.
Al-Qist: a stick or a type of perfume used for fumigation by a woman in postpartum bleeding.
Al-Adhfir: a type of perfume that has no singular form from its word. It is said to be a black perfume, a piece of which resembles a fingernail.
The Shaykh : Yes, this is an explanation of the things from which the mourning woman is prohibited.
First, perfume in all its types; it is not permissible for her to apply perfume, neither on her head nor on her body nor on anything else that touches her.
Second: adornment, adornment with wares and hair. Yes. Adornment with wares and kohl and the like.
Third: garments prepared for adornment; it is not permissible for the mourning woman to wear garments prepared for adornment.
Fourth: that she does not leave her house except for dire necessity or for a pressing need during the day. Dire necessity is, for example, if she is compelled to visit a doctor. In this case, it is permissible for her to go to the doctor, whether in the day or in the night.
As for the pressing need, it is less than that.
And with this, the discussion of the hadiths ends, unless there is one remaining hadith.
The Reader: Yes.
The Shaykh : Yes
A woman must not observe mourning for one who had died for more than three (days) except for four months and ten days in the case of her husband. And she must not wear a dyed garment except one of the types made of dyed yarn, or apply collyrium, or touch perfume except a little perfume or incense, when she has been purified after her courses.
لا تحد امرأة على ميت فوق ثلاث ، إلا على زوج : أربعة أشهر وعشرا ، ولا تلبس ثوبا مصبوغا إلا ثوب عصْب. ولا تكتحل ولا تمس طيبا ، إلا إذا طهرت : نبذة من قسط أو أظفار'Asb: garments from Yemen containing white and black.
