Information for "MuwataMalik-017-001-35303"

108 Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that the Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; visited Umm Salamah while she was in mourning for Abu Salama and she had put aloes on her eyes. He said; What is this; Umm Salama? She said; It is only aloes; Messenger of Allah. He said; Put it on at night and wipe it off in the daytime. Malik said; The mourning of a young girl who has not yet had a menstrual period takes the same form as the mourning of one who has had a period. She avoids what a mature woman avoids if her husband dies. Malik said; A slave-girl mourns her husband when he dies for two months and five nights like her idda. Malik said; An umm walad does not have to mourn when her master dies; and a slave-girl does not have to mourn when her master dies. Mourning is for those with husbands.
