Zainab bint Abu Salama reported

Umm Salama and Umm Habiba (Allah be pleased with them) were talking with each other (and saying) that a woman came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and mentioned to him that her daughter had lost her husband , and her eyes were sore and she wanted to use collyrium , whereupon Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said : One among you used to throw dung at the end of a year , and now (this abstinence from adornment) is only for four months and ten days.
