Chapter 34: Limit of Abstaining from Adornment in Mourning

Muwatta Malik 1330

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that Umm Salama, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ said, "A mourning woman can rub her head with lotus leaves and olive oil.''
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ، زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَتْ تَقُولُ تَجْمَعُ الْحَادُّ رَأْسَهَا بِالسِّدْرِ وَالزَّيْتِ ‏.‏
