It was narrated from Umin ‘Atiyyah that the Messenger of Allah P.B.U.H said: ‘No deceased person should be mourned for more than three days, except a woman should mourn for her husband for four months and ten days, and she should not wear dyed clothes, except for a garment of ‘Mb, and she should not wear kohl or perfume, except at the beginning of her purity)’ when she may apply a little Qust and Azffir.’”121 (Sahih)
