قَالَتْ زَيْنَبُ وَسَمِعْتُ أُمِّي أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ، زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم تَقُولُ جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ ابْنَتِي تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا وَقَدِ اشْتَكَتْ عَيْنَيْهَا أَفَتَكْحُلُهُمَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ لاَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلاَثًا كُلُّ ذَلِكَ يَقُولُ ‏"‏ لاَ ‏"‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّمَا هِيَ أَرْبَعَةُ أَشْهُرٍ وَعَشْرًا وَقَدْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ تَرْمِي بِالْبَعْرَةِ عَلَى رَأْسِ الْحَوْلِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ حُمَيْدُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ فَقُلْتُ لِزَيْنَبَ وَمَا تَرْمِي بِالْبَعْرَةِ عَلَى رَأْسِ الْحَوْلِ فَقَالَتْ زَيْنَبُ كَانَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ إِذَا تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا زَوْجُهَا دَخَلَتْ حِفْشًا وَلَبِسَتْ شَرَّ ثِيَابِهَا وَلَمْ تَمَسَّ طِيبًا وَلاَ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَمُرَّ بِهَا سَنَةٌ ثُمَّ تُؤْتَى بِدَابَّةٍ حِمَارٍ أَوْ شَاةٍ أَوْ طَيْرٍ فَتَفْتَضُّ بِهِ فَقَلَّمَا تَفْتَضُّ بِشَىْءٍ إِلاَّ مَاتَ ثُمَّ تَخْرُجُ فَتُعْطَى بَعْرَةً فَتَرْمِي بِهَا ثُمَّ تُرَاجِعُ بَعْدُ مَا شَاءَتْ مِنْ طِيبٍ أَوْ غَيْرِهِ ‏.‏

Translation

(Au cours du troisième hadith) Zainab a dit: «J'ai entendu Oum Salama, la femme du Prophète (Sur lui la grâce et la paix d'Allah) dire: «Une femme vint trouver l'Envoyé d'Allah (salallahou alayhi wa salam) r (Sur lui la grâce et la paix d'Allah) et lui dit: «Ô Envoyé d'Allah, ma fille vient de ne perdre son mari, et ses yeux sont douloureux peut-elle les enduire du Kohol»? L'Envoyé d'Allah (salallahou alayhi wa salam) r (Sur lui la grâce et la paix d'Allah) lui répondit: «Non», reprenant le «non» pour deux ou trois fois, entendant par là «Un non définitif», puis il dit: «Le deuil en est pour quatre mois et dix jours. Et durant la période préislamique, l'une des femmes jetait un crottin après le passage d'un an». Houmaid Ibn Nafe' continua: «Je demandai Zainab: «Pourquoi la femme jetait un crottin après le passage d'un an»? Elle répondit: «quand la femme perdait son mari, elle demeurait dans un endroit à meubles médiocres, et mettait des habits en loque, sans toucher ni à un parfum ni à rien de pareil, jusqu'à ce qu'un an en soit écoulé. Puis elle demandait d'avoir une bête un âne soit-il ou un mouton ou un oiseau, contre la peau de quoi elle se frottait le corps. Et il était peu fréquent que la bête puisse survivre, puis la femme sortait, et on lui donné un crottin, elle le jetait devant elle, à la suite de quoi, elle pouvait toucher au parfum ou à autre chose pareille»
