حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ بْنُ مُوسَى، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حُمَيْدُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ زَيْنَبَ ابْنَةِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، قَالَتْ لَمَّا جَاءَ نَعْىُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ مِنَ الشَّأْمِ دَعَتْ أُمُّ حَبِيبَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ بِصُفْرَةٍ فِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ، فَمَسَحَتْ عَارِضَيْهَا وَذِرَاعَيْهَا وَقَالَتْ إِنِّي كُنْتُ عَنْ هَذَا لَغَنِيَّةً، لَوْلاَ أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَحِلُّ لاِمْرَأَةٍ تُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ أَنْ تُحِدَّ عَلَى مَيِّتٍ فَوْقَ ثَلاَثٍ، إِلاَّ عَلَى زَوْجٍ، فَإِنَّهَا تُحِدُّ عَلَيْهِ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا ‏"‏.

বাংলা অনুবাদ
যায়নাব বিনত আবূ সালামাহ (রাযি.) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, যখন সিরিয়া হতে আবূ সুফ্ইয়্যান (রাঃ)-এর মৃত্যুর খবর পৌঁছল, তার তৃতীয় দিবসে উম্মু হাবীবাহ (রাযি.) হলুদ বর্ণের সুগন্ধি আনয়ন করলেন এবং তাঁর উভয় গন্ড ও বাহুতে মথিত করলেন। অতঃপর বললেন, অবশ্য আমার এর কোন প্রয়োজন ছিল না, যদি আমি নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম -কে এ কথা বলতে না শুনতাম যে, স্ত্রীলোক আল্লাহ্ এবং কিয়ামতের দিবসের প্রতি ঈমান রাখে তার পক্ষে স্বামী ব্যতীত অন্য কোন মৃত ব্যক্তির জন্য তিন দিনের বেশি শোক পালন করা বৈধ নয়। অবশ্য স্বামীর জন্য সে চার মাস দশ দিন শোক পালন করবে। (১২৮১, ৫৩৩৪, ৫৩৩৯, ৫৩৪৫) (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ১১৯৮, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
