أَخْبَرَنَا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ اللَّيْثِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ أَيُّوبُ وَهُو ابْنُ مُوسَى قَالَ حُمَيْدٌ وَحَدَّثَتْنِي زَيْنَبُ بِنْتُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أُمِّهَا أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ قَالَتْ جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ فَقَالَتْ

يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ ابْنَتِي رَمِدَتْ أَفَأَكْحُلُهَا؟ وَكَانَتْ مُتَوَفًّى عَنْهَا فَقَالَ «إِلَّا أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا» ثُمَّ قَالَتْ إِنِّي أَخَافُ عَلَى بَصَرِهَا فَقَالَ «لَا إِلَّا أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا قَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ تُحِدُّ عَلَى زَوْجِهَا سَنَةً ثُمَّ تَرْمِي عَلَى رَأْسِ السَّنَةِ بِالْبَعْرَةِ»

✧ "O Messenger of God, my daughter has an eye inflammation; shall I apply kohl to her?" She was in mourning for her husband. He said: "Except four months and ten (days)." Then she said: "I fear for her eyesight." He said: "No, except four months and ten. In pre-Islamic times one of you would mourn her husband for a year, then at the end of the year she would throw a piece of dung."
